Dog Sitting in Central Square

“Jessica arrived early, like she did the first time I had her come, and she was very attentive to my dogs. We will continue to use Jessica when we need Rover! Thank you, Jessica!”

“Jen was wonderful attending to my dog's needs twice a day while I was on vacation. She sent me pictures and gave me updates with every visit! I'll definitely rebook her again, if she's available!”

About: I have had cats, dogs and even a horse that was boarded off property that I have cared for. I currently have two cats, who rule our house. I also have chickens and a fish tank with an African dwarf frog. I’m a house wife who watches my grand babies daily during the week. I am home with them all day and pet sit around that schedule. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I would walk your dog on a leash each time they need to go out to go to the bathroom or need exercise.If your dog or cat likes to play, even better! We can get out all the extra energy during my visit.I will care for your pets like they are my own.

About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)

“Maria & my dog, Tank, got very close very quickly. We were pleasantly surprised with her efforts and continuous communication, and we’d definitely recommend her to a friend.”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, mostly dogs. I’ve owned my own dogs since I was 12, and I currently own a German shepherd and a Coton De Tulear. I consider myself a true animal enthusiast and I believe that caring for them is more than a chore, but something you need to be passionate about to give them the best care they deserve! QUIET HOURS: My quiet hours daily are from 10pm - 7:30am. During these hours I will not respond to requests or messages, however you can still submit them. HOUSE SITTING: I am available for full day visits (except Mon & Wed mornings + weekends) for dogs who need constant care ONLY. If your dog is fine being alone for the majority of the day, please book through my drop-in visits instead. Currently I am not doing overnight stays due to certain circumstances concerning my own pets. DROP-IN VISITS: For pets who are fine being on their own during the day but need check-in’s + playtime throughout. It’s all dependent on what my clients homes are equipped with! If you have a fenced yard and high energy dogs, I’m more than happy to take them outside to play and explore, or play inside. Treats are always an option, as are pets, cuddles, and plenty of love for your fur babies!

“Nora did a fantastic job with my cat! On our first meeting with her we felt very comfortable. I was quite nervous about how my cat would be but she sent pictures and comments everyday to ease my mind. I would highly recommend Nora. She is so sweet with my pet and very reliable. I hope that she will be available in the future! Thanks Nora!”

“This is our second time having John care for Abby and Archie, and things went very well again. The dogs seemed very calm and comfortable with John, all instructions were followed, and everything was in order when we returned. We appreciate John taking such good care of our beloved pups!”

“Lee was fantastic. We had an issue on our end with our electronic locks. Lee worked around the issue and our handyman to make sure our pets were taken care of. Above and beyond. I'd certainly reccomend her and she is our first option next trip.”

About: I've had family dogs my whole childhood and most of my adult life and this is sadly the first time without one of my own! I've had golden labs and retrievers however I've sat for big and small, senior and pups as well as for family, friends and strangers alike. I am a registered nurse and am trained for humans but able to assist with any emergency that may arise for your fur babies during our stay together. I'm compassionate, loving, gentle, patient and reliable. Between work assignments and travel adventures I have flexibility that allows me to accommodate more dog watching & walking in so I can get all the dog snuggles in! I am flexible and respectful of your home and am a quick learner to adjust to each individual dog and family's needs, wishes and quirks!

“Andrew was absolutely fantastic! He took care of my Loki for 15 days and I couldn't have asked for better service. He was incredibly reliable and flexible, which made my trip so much less stressful. Amazing service – 5 stars!”

About: I have had cats and dogs as pets my whole life. I have also been there for friends, family and neighbors when they need a pet sitter. I currently look after both of my parents dogs while they are at work. Looking to do the same for others I currently have an open schedule and generally flexible on what hours I can work. Please let me know how I can help you and care for your pets! I understand animals have their territory and also enjoy when you respect their personal space. Making sure an animal trusts me is important to me.

“Fast response, and professional setting up the drop-in visits! My dog took to her right away, and was clearly having a great time in the photos she shared. Highly recommend, and hope to have her take care of Bentley again!”

About: I’ve been blessed to work with a wide variety of animals, with years of experience caring for dogs to guinea pigs, of all ages and temperaments, and with varying health conditions. Pets of all kinds are my passion, and putting pet parents at ease while away from their babies, and pets at ease while away from their loved ones is my focus. I myself have cared for my own pets growing up and currently have 2 fur babies which have all taught me how important knowing they’re as happy as can be is, as well as how scary it can be putting their care in the hands of someone else, which is why creating an experience that duplicates your pets everyday and feels familiar is my main priority. Ensuring they get more than enough walks, play and snuggles so before they realize they’re already back with you. You can feel confident that with me, your pet not only will be protected but will also receive top quality care! Pet care is my full-time job. I’m available for all your pet care needs 24/7, weekdays and/or weekends. Your pets schedule is my first priority! I can easily crate any pet that needs it. Crating is not the typical practice. I have my own front and backyard for fun monitored time in the grass and sun. As well as a dog agility court and playground nearby.

About: I’ve always had a dog in my life. Friends and family have relied on me countless times to walk and feed their pets. Right now having three dogs of different breeds; Golden Retriever, Standard Poodle, and Black Lab. I’m currently about to be starting college in the fall. Once college starts my schedule will be more limited, but will keep updating this when there are changes. I have shadowed at multiple vet clinics, knowing behaviors and signs your fur baby is showing. Also knowing how to distract and distance space when needed, may it be an other dog or even if your dog needs some space.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and genuinely love all animals. I had my first cat at age 4 and grew up with both cats and dogs. I also lived with a rescued pit bull for several years (she had a rough past and didn’t do well around other dogs), so I have some experience with anxious pups on walks. I understand how important it is to build trust and work at a pet’s pace. Whether your pet is social and playful or a bit shy and needs space, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and give them the best care possible. Even with a full-time job in finance, I make time for what matters—and for me, that includes animals. I work a standard weekday schedule, but my evenings and weekends are all open for pet care. The flexibility of my job may allow for a late morning - early afternoon check-in. Whether its a walk, evening check-in, or weekend drop-ins, I’m happy to build a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. I also spend most of my downtime at home, so if your pets need longer visits, I can give them plenty of attention and company. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, medications, walking schedules, or just the way your pet likes their favorite toy tossed. I know every animal is different, and I take the time to get to know their personality and needs. If we arrange care in my home, your pet will be treated like one of my own. I have a calm, pet-friendly space and three cat companions who are used to other animals and are gentle and well-socialized. I always do a slow introduction and only bring in pets that I know will be comfortable in that environment. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether I’m in your home or you're trusting your pet with mine.

“Thank you Madison! Lenny was so excited to hang out with maddy today. Very attentive and caring for my boy.”

“Alexis was great!! She did a meet and greet prior to the day of drop in. My babies were happy and well taken care of in her care. I will absolutely have her do a drop in again !”

About: Hello! I have had pets my entire life and currently have two of my own rescue pups-one I adopted at 9 weeks old (trained him myself!) and one I adopted at 6 months old who needed additional training. I would love to help with your dogs and treat them as if they were my own-many belly rubs, walks, and love! I am a school mental health therapist so I am home by 4:00 and can come for evening (or morning) visits! Available weekends and holidays as well as school breaks! When notified ahead of time, I would be happy to make my schedule work to help you and your pups! I will take care of your pets exactly the way you ask me to. I am experienced in giving medications, helping older dogs, caring for puppies, and training. I will treat your pups as if they were my own!
