Mary-Kate is a kind and professional sitter. She was eager to learn about our ducks and took great care with them and our dog. We’d definitely book her again!

When my usual pet sitter was out of town recently and I needed someone pretty last minute, I frantically started looking for someone to come for my dog and cat’s first in-home overnight stay. Libby was SO sweet, accommodating and patient with me, and immediately seemed to have a connection with my fur babies. She was prompt and courteous, and kept in touch during the stay including pictures. I’ll absolutely be calling Libby again!

Nicole is one amazing cat sitter......in fact Dulcie (our cat) calls Nicole her own, very wonderful house guest!!! Dulcie is almost 14 years old and pretty set in her ways. During COVID and after we have not gone away for more than 2 nights (and rarely). But.......now......our daughter was getting married. We made plans to leave for 5 days and we were worried. Nicole told me not to worry and she was absolutely right! She handled the pill-giving, the fussy eating, and the late night meows with lots of brushing (a favorite activity of Dulcie's) kitty talk and kitty kisses. And Nicole always got back to us with photos and stories about what was going on with Dulcie! I recommend Nicole 100%! Absolutely! Nicole is a gem! And I want to add that she also took beautiful care of our apartment! She is amazing!

About: I have been sitting for years and currently have two dogs of my own. Our older dog had ear cancer so I am familiar with how to care for sick dogs and how to give medicine and the treatments of such nature. I currently work during the work week so I am free most nights during the week do stop ins and then have much more open availability on the weekends! I am very attentive to the needs set out by the parents and make sure I am following instructions! I love taking the pets and walks as it’s good for both me and them! I would love to play and also can be down for a good cuddle as well.

Alexis was great. She stayed with Lady and took great care of her. Her schedule allowed her to take her out 5 times per day. She also fed our turtle each day and sent daily pictures of both pets. When we returned home, everything was in order. The house was as we left it and our pets were content.

About: I have hosted dogs for over 15 years and have experience with many breeds. My dog Harvey was a member of Therapy Dog International. I believe that the key to well-behaved dogs is plenty of exercise so aside from wrestling and chasing, we go for long walks preferably off-leash. Our home is on the Mohawk River so water loving dogs get to swim. I take care of dogs full time. I live on a dead end street so we can take frequent short walks. We also go to the dog park. Every dog has unique qualities that require special attention and care. I watch for fear-based reactions and avoid certain situations or help to overcome anxiety.

Rachelle is the best! She is super flexible and offered to stay another night due to our plane being super delayed. Thankfully we got home at 2 am but I know I could count on her being there for our pup if it ended up being canceled. Highly recommend Rachelle!

About: I have been caring for animals since I was a child. I started small with hamster and fish, eventually teaching myself to care for larger species through rigorous online teachings and experience. I work part time so that I can spend as much time working with and caring for animals as possible. Ideally taking care of at least 3 pets a day would be best case for me. I do not have the ability to care for pets in my home but I do have the knowledge and experience to crate fur babies when needed without causing them distress. I am familiar with getting animals of all domestic sizes into a state of calm for walks or sleep time or even cuddles after a long day of missing their folks.

We were so grateful to have found Anna for this stay!! She was very helpful and stayed in touch with updates and photos. We were extra worried about leaving Lexi for this trip, as it was our first time away after our other dog passed. Anna was so understanding and took great care of our baby (and house!) while we were gone!! Thank you so much Anna!!!

Of course Madalyn did a wonderful job again taking care of our fur babies for the week! She kept us updated with text messages and photos every day. I can’t say enough about her. We already have her booked for two more vacations next year and will probably be adding a third and fourth. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

About: Hi, I am a mature and experienced pet owner. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and loved my own dogs (Rottweiler, Boxers, Jack Russell and Frenchton) while raising my children. I am unfortunately not able to have my own pets due to where I live. I have traveled for work, sporting events and vacations and know the stress of finding care for my pets where they will feel loved and be well taken care of. I want to offer peace of mind to others when they cannot take their furry family members with them when traveling. I am a self-employed photographer so I will be able to treat you pet like my own. I will be there in the morning, evening and throughout the day. I can bring my work supplies to you home to work so the only time I will be away for work is for a shoot. I know my appointments in advance and will be able to share the schedule with you to ensure it meets your needs. I am unable to care for pets in my home. When caring for your pet in your home I will follow the instructions you provide. I enjoy playing and hanging out with cats and dogs but also know not all cats and dogs are the same. Through conversation with you I will learn how best to interact with your pet to ensure there is a great experience for all. As a photographer I unfortunately do not have pictures of myself with my pets as I am always on the other side of the camera.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for all kinds of breeds, from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Newfoundlands, and have experience with puppies as young as 3 weeks old as well as senior dogs up to 14 years old. I’m comfortable with dogs of all temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, learning basic commands, or prefers a slower pace, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I have experience with basic training and enjoy helping reinforce good habits and routines in a positive way. Every dog has their own personality, so I like to take the time to get to know what makes them feel coming. My goal is to provide dependable care while giving pet parents peace of mind. At the end of the day, our pets are family, and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of mine. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, having pets myself, and I make it a priority to be dependable and punctual. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal schedule, whether that means walks, feeding times, play sessions, or drop in visits. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, making pet care something I genuinely look forward to each day. Safety is a top priority for me, especially during walks. I take the time to properly understand each pet’s behavior, triggers, and comfort level before heading out, and I stay attentive to their surroundings at all times to ensure they are secure and well managed. I like to follow key safety precautions like using properly fitted leashes and harnesses, avoiding high-traffic or overstimulating areas when needed, checking gates and doors carefully, and always keeping a secure hold on pets when entering or exiting spaces. I also focus on building trust with each pet by moving at their pace, using calm and consistent body language, and allowing them to become comfortable with me before expecting too much interaction. I pay attention to their signals and respect their boundaries, which helps create a sense of safety and reliability. Over time, this helps pets feel more at ease with me, making walks and in home care smoother and more comfortable for them.

About: Calm, Reliable Overnight Dog Sitter with Large-Breed Experience. I understand that every animal is different. Some dogs love long adventures, others prefer quiet walks. Some cats demand attention, others just want you to refill the food and leave them be. I adjust my care to match your pet’s needs — whether that means a hike, a cuddle session, or just respectful presence and clean routines. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals with all sorts of temperaments — anxious, energetic, elderly, or aloof. I offer overnight stays, dog walks, drop-in visits, and special outings (like private Sniffspot walks for dogs who need extra space). I provide consistent updates, clear communication, and take your animal’s physical and emotional safety seriously. If you’re looking for someone who will meet your pets with kindness, attentiveness. — I’d love to help. I’m happy to accommodate longer stays or multiple dogs — just send a message to discuss your needs! Booking messages are checked and answered at 8 daily. I work part time and make my own schedule. I am frequently available and aside from house sitting I can offer anything from early morning walks to late night check-ins I have reliable transportation and I make sure to provide updates as needed, extra treats and supplies always on hand. Long walks in safe places are a specialty.
