Top rated Caroline pet sitters

“Sarah was amazing with my dog Summer! She was super attentive to instructions I left and even picked up my packages for me and placed them inside without me asking :) she sent me sooo many photos of summer which I really appreciated and could tell summer had a great time with her!”


“Adrienne did a phenomenal job caring for our pets while we were out of town. She was always on time to feed and take them out, handled our one dog’s anxiety like a pro and was communicative and caring. I highly recommend her!”


“Jenna was an astounding pet sitter for Roxy. She went way above and beyond and really was determined to make friends with Roxy, who is a very persnickety cat and only loves me. I would recommend Jenna to anyone! If there was an option for 30 stars, I would give her a 31 star review.”


“My cat took to Dan right away, even though she’s typically wary of men! Dan is punctual, professional, and very communicative. He took great care of my cat and home.”


“Rossy did an amazing job caring for our puppy! She was very communicative, responsive and flexible with schedule changes. Rossy provided multiple photos and detailed information about each visit with our puppy. Our puppy's joyful expressions in the photos were testament to Rossy's loving care and made us feel assured our puppy was in good hands. Thank you, Rossy!”


“We were very glad to leave our cats in Kaylee’s excellent care. Would definitely recommend her & will not hesitate to have her come back for drop-in visits again.”


“Noah is 100% reliable, goes the extra mile, cares deeply and handles all pet care with deep care, integrity, and professionalism. I’m a repeat client and plan to be. My shy cat loves Noah!”


“Rachel is amazing! She helped us out in a pinch and went above and beyond—visiting our dog Bastien three days in a row while we were tied up with long days away from home. Bastien adores her, and it’s easy to see why! Not only did she walk, feed, and snuggle him, but she even laid with him during a thunderstorm to keep him calm. I trust Rachel implicitly and feel so grateful to have her in our lives. She’s wonderful - truly the kind of sitter every pet parent hopes for. Thank you, Rachel!”


“Madison took great care of our pup. We needed someone to take Hallie for a walk and spend some time with her at the house during the day. She was careful with our directions and meeting Hallie's specific dietary needs and provided regular updates with photos. We highly recommend Madison!”


About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember, both large and small. I've been routinely walking a 100 pound great Pyrenees since I was a pre teen, so I know how to handle a large barking dog (and I'm not even bothered by barking any more!). I also have a lot of energy, so I'm happy to play as much as possible with any sort of dog. I'm also currently missing my own two dogs at home, so you can be sure that your dogs would get plenty of love and attention if I'm taking care of them. I'm a college student so my schedule is fairly open, aside from when I have class. I'm also available consistently on the weekends, so it wouldn't be an issue to perform frequent check ins. I'm happy to answer any specific inquiries about my weekly availability as well. I am comfortable using whatever mode of security you want, and will be sure to supervise your pets carefully if we're outside. I'm comfortable giving medicine to animals, as I've had some experience with my own cat (who had diabetes) and other foster kittens who needed eye drops, or medication given through pipettes.

“It has been such a pleasure getting to know Kait before her upcoming week stay with our dogs! Our dogs seem to love her already and she’s so friendly, courteous, dependable, positive, and knowledgeable. So grateful to have found her!”

“Caroline did a great job checking in on my cat daily as requested. She understood and did exactly what I wanted her to do for my cat and then communicated everything to me. I was reassured that my cat was being cared for very well which meant a lot to me. 🙏🏼 Caroline”


“Georgia was very attentive to my cat's needs. They were very well adjusted when I returned, which was a nice surprise since they always seem a little sad after a trip.”


“Jae was wonderful. Our cats are usually skittish around new people but it was clear from the adorable pictures she sent us that they loved her! I would definitely recommend her to care for your pets.”

“Ethan may have a soft spot for dogs, but it's clear that all creatures trust him. Our four cats warmed up faster than I've ever seen, and our three skittish hens were happy and excited when we got home. Thanks for the great care you took Ethan! 🙂”


About: Hello! I started pet-sitting seriously in graduate school and had a consistent base of clients for two years. Later, I volunteered at a local humane society where I cared for and interacted with cats and dogs multiple times a week, for three years. This experience taught me a great deal more about dogs, including behaviors, breed traits, and exercise needs. While it's not my profession, animal care-taking has definitely become my passion! I've taken care of cats with very specific feeding programs as well as dogs who have special needs (like my lazy friend Colonel Lafayette the Basset Hound in my pictures). I treat every animal exactly how they want to be treated. Sometimes that is a lot of love and affection, but sometimes there are cats who like their distance! Whatever your animal needs, I'm happy to accommodate them. I commute daily and can easily work in visits in the early morning and late afternoon. Weekends are quite free for longer visits and homestays. It's an honor to have a key to someones home and to be trusted to care for their animals, and I take this very seriously. I am a guest in your home, but in that time your pet is family to me. I always make sure to leave a home neater than I found it, and will double, triple check that all is as it should be before I depart.

“Zoe was fantastic giving drop-in visits for our two cats for a week-long trip; they barely reacted when we got back.”


About: I grew up with dogs and have been a canine lover since I was a child. As an adult I have enjoyed dog sitting and walking for many friends and relatives. I know that every dog is special and has a unique personality. I love getting to know each dog so that they have a safe and fun experience when they’re with me. I am currently substitute teaching part-time and so I am available for dog walking or sitting for 3-5 days every week. In the summer my schedule will be even more flexible for these services. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always respect the space, culture, and boundaries of my client and their pet(s). I communicate with my clients to ensure that I honor their lifestyles and routines to provide a safe, trusting, and loving experience for their pets.

About: If I wasn’t pursuing acting, I would be working with animals. I absolutely love animals, and have taken care of many of my friends dogs and other pets over the years. I find animals so interesting and personable, and I love getting to know them as individual, and giving them lots of care and love. I am a big guy at 6’2” so I can handle all sizes of dogs. I’m also a serial Caesar Millan dog whisperer watcher. I am in ithaca for the summer so I have a lot of free time to help take care of any animals you have. Very available. I will be happy to help care for your pet however you see fit. At home we have 2 cats who we let roam around our yard and area, but I understand that everyone has their own way that they like their pets to be taken care of and I like to honor that.

About: I grew up with big dogs and currently have an 11-year-old black lab mix. I know how to get a puppy to go outside, and I know how to stimulate a senior dog that can't go on long walks. I would love to meet your dog and make them as comfortable as they can be! Your dog will be spending a great deal of time with me and Brisco, as we're both home during the workday! We like to go on long walks in the middle of the day and hang out outside enjoying the sunshine. We have a great deal of space for the dog to walk around inside, and a fenced in backyard for them to explore. We also have access to a creek in the 14 acre Christmas tree farm behind our home, where they can go on long walks on a leash with us and Brisco!
