“Bailey is super friendly and flexible. My dog got comfortable with her very quickly and even my introverted cat liked to say hi when Bailey stopped by. Looking forward to using Bailey again for dog walking.”


About: I have grown up around dogs, specifically seniors who are on medication or are insulin dependant. I have experience with training as well, having trained my own service dog who went to college with me. I also have raised rabbits and guinea pigs for around 8 years and have shown them acrossed the country. At the moment I'm on break from college, I have a lot of avaliable time. I'm willing to work with you and make sure your pet gets all the attention they deserve! My own dog and I go for several walks a day and we play a in the lake. I have a long haired GSD so he gets groomed daily and loves to sleep in his bed! I plan to provide similar enrichment for your animals such as mind games on rainy days and lots of walks when it's nice outside.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for 15+ years, from playful Lab puppies to senior rescues needing medication and mobility help. Growing up on a small hobby farm, I learned early how to read animal body language and keep routines calm and safe. Today I share life with my own Labrador, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur‑kid with someone new. I offer daily photo updates, walks, and custom playtimes—whether that’s a pond‑side swim, a gentle neighborhood stroll, or indoor enrichment games on rainy days. I’m comfortable with crate training, basic obedience, and administering oral or topical meds. Your pet’s happiness and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I work for a school, so I’m out at 2:30 every day and have summers off. I also have scheduled school breaks, which gives me extra flexibility. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’ll always follow your instructions closely—whether it’s locking up, feeding routines, giving medications, or keeping your dog on their usual walking route. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I carry poop bags & treats on me at all times. I have common vet meds memorized. I own plastic syringes. I have carriers in my car. I’m on a group text list for emergency wildlife rescue. I spend my off hours volunteering at a shelter for cats that also spays/neuters dogs. lol, hi, I’m Eli. I will care for your pet with so much patience, empathy, care, space (if needed), cuddles (if they are asking for it), or whatever is appropriate. Animals can do no wrong out of evil or malice in MOH eyes, they just need guidance and love and help! My biggest flaw as a sitter is that I tend to over communicate as a baseline — usually out of confirming their health / safety first — but I can discern what is an emergency and send summarized updates (i.e. by night or by weekend if housesitting longterm, for example.) So feel FREE to set a boundary; you can’t hurt my feelings. Just let me know how to reach you (message or call) & for what. My husband care for our cats if I need to house-sit, otherwise, this is my full-time gig lately and I absolutely love it! It’s my calling. 🥰 I leave a place better than I found it; I am highly polite and respectful and would never disrespect a client’s home; I treat it like I’m a guest on my best behavior of course!

About: I love all kinds of pets. You will be confident in knowing when you leave your pet with me. They will be loved and happy. I currently work hybrid during the day with a very flexible schedule. I can come home at any time to feed or let your pet out. I have a large wide open yard. We live on a dead end road. I currently have a small toy Shih Tzu. She’s just over 15 years old, but loves to play with other animals.

About: Hello, My name is Monique. I currently have 2 dogs of my own that, I only just realized have officially entered seniorhood. I currently work at a local vet clinic here in Ithaca so I am also up to date and knowledgable about different breeds,foods, treats, and everything cat and dog! Ive been pet sitting and walking since the age of 13 Which has helped me learn all about caring for animals at all ages. From 4 weeks up till seniority, I can do it all and love every minute of it. Taking care of animals is something im extremely passionate about. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry(or feathered or scaled) friend! I currently do work full time and have 2 kidsof my own; and my work schedule does change from week to week but with a little bit of planning, im able to make most things work! Never be afraid to ask if you dee something and are unsure if im the right fit for you! Rover inly lets me specify certain details. I take all safety precautions, double leashes, prong collars(if provided), harnessed walkes, anything that YOU say works best for your pet, I am doing. I dont like to take the risk!

About: I have always had a dog. I start training them from puppy hood and love them until they are gray. Humans truly don't deserve dogs. I'm currently working part-time with an extremely flexible schedule, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I like to be able to have dinner with my partner and her teenagers, but I have availability during the day and at night. I have a puppy, Gnocchi, who is 6 months old, very socialized and loves other dogs of all sizes. We both have lots of energy for play. If your dog is crate trained, I will be happy to crate them for meal times or nap times if you prefer. If I come to your home, I will ask for your instructions and follow them to a T. If I come to your home for a drop-in, a walk or house sitting, Gnocchi can either join me or stay at home. This will be up to you.

About: I have been lucky enough to spend time with dogs of a range of ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need a slower pace and a gentle touch. I’m comfortable with a wide range of needs, just let me know! I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious dogs, and I always move at their pace. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language, so I can respond quickly if something seem off. But most importantly, I make sure that they're safe and happy, while waiting for their favorite person to come back to them. Caring for the fluffy angels is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily life. My schedule is flexible and I can work from home, which means I can dedicate quality time to walks, play, feeding, and companionship without rushing. Whether I'm welcoming pets into my home or caring for them in their own space, I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I live in a quiet apartment surrounded by forest and green space, with very little car traffic in the neighborhood, which is perfect for peaceful walks and outdoor sniff time. At my place, I maintain a clean and cozy space with plenty of room for your doggie or kitty to lounge, play, or nap. In your home, I'll respect the privacy and cleaness of your space. I will follow your care instructions closely, from feeding routines to medication schedules and favorite toys, because I know how important familiarity and consistency is to their happiness.

About: Hi, I'm Chris. I work in the gig economy and have taken care of a few dogs and cats in town and am looking for more clients. I can water plants, feed fishes and check the mail. I like to draw and can draw your pet if you want too. I have enjoyed taking care of pets when I travel far away and would be happy to look after your pets here or wherever. I have one client in town and one out of town. I work a flexible schedule so can accommodate both of them and many more. I would like to do less driving work and work more with rover, as it just wears the car out. I also sell drawings sometimes when inspired. At this time, I'm not currently having pets stay at my house. Maybe in the future I will host animals. I don't have the right space yet.

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds from a very young age. All sizes and breeds of dogs and cats as well as numerous livestock. Including horses, goats, sheep, alpacas, pigs, chickens, ducks, and numerous reptiles. Ample experience with senior and special needs pets as well. Happy to discuss any and all pet care needs! I have a very flexible daily work schedule and can easily accommodate your specific needs. I'm happy to take on clients last minute, schedule permitting. I unfortunately do not offer care for pets in my home. I will do drop ins, walks, and in the home over night visitations only

About: Who better than a veterinarian to take care of your best buddies while you're away? I am a new DVM graduate, and am happy to take care of your pets, no matter how old or young, especially those with special needs! I am certified in dog/cat CPR, and am comfortable providing any care needed. *Please note*: My providing pet sitting/dog walking/pet care services does NOT constitute a VCPR, and I cannot provide medical advice unless a VCPR is explicitly established in accordance with NY State Law* I prefer to stay in the client's home especially for dogs as this is generally much more comfortable for the dog to stay in their own environment. For overnight stays, I like to meet the dogs beforehand with owners present. This way they are assured it is okay to have me in their space for staying with them.

About: I'm the kind of person that would have a hundred dogs to take care of if I could! All of them would be rescues. I would love to help you take care of your animals while you're at work or away. I am a Hands-On, play with the dogs , make sure they get love and affection , walks and proper care. It would be a pure pleasure to be able to help you be confident that your animal is taken care of while you're away at work. I must admit I suffer from a little bit of empty nest syndrome as my youngest child graduated and went off and is now doing her own thing, it makes me purely happy to scratch a dog behind their ears and have them be just delighted.

About: I had a yellow labrador retriever for 15 years (Sadly she passed away recently). I’ve taken care of her my whole life, from when she was a puppy to when she was a senior dog at the end of her journey. I am comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I have experience with senior dogs, like my own! I treat pets like family and give them the utmost care and love. I will treat your dog like my own and shower them with love and affection. I’m currently a college student with lots of free time! I’m in my final year and have a reduced workload, and want to find a way to be more active in my lifestyle. I do all of the necessary things to take care of your pet and keep it healthy. I will treat your pet like my own, with the very best care and love. I can crate your dog, follow a feeding/bathroom schedule, and am flexible and can stick to any routines you may have.

“Kyle helped us out with some extra walking while mama is away for work. He was communicative, punctual, friendly, and good with our pup. We'll be checking back with him next time we need a hand with Zephy!”

Ashley A.
“Ashley was basically born to be around animals. She’s been surrounded by pets her whole life, and I can honestly say I’ve never seen an animal meet her and not instantly love her. She has this calm, kind energy that makes animals (and people) feel safe, cared for, and completely at ease. Beyond that, Ashley is one of the most thoughtful, dependable, and genuinely good-hearted people you’ll ever meet. Anyone who books with her is truly in good hands”

“My dogs are so relaxed when I come home from work! Reliable, kind, and took extra time to walk the dogs further because it was nice outside 🩷”


Elizabeth B.
“Liz did a great job with our dog! Our dog was happy and she was great with sending photos and videos while we were gone. I will definitely use her again when I have to leave my pup at home! Things were neat and clean when we returned.”


Cindy V.
“Cindy is FANTASTIC with animals! She has cat sit for me before and my cats love her! I’ve also seen her love and caringness for dogs as well and you can find nobody better!”


Naomi C.

“Great job with a shy dog. Got her to walk and play. Thank you, excellent job!”


Dawn R.

“Dawn is definitely a dog lover. She was able to coax my anxious dog outside to walk and do his business. She is reliable and a good communicator. 5 stars!”


Monique J.
“Monique is WONDERFUL! I actually met her at her job, Petland. I was shopping for a new collar and some toys for my boxer mix and I was going on about how I was trying to find someone to watch him for the weekend while I went away on business, and she mentioned that she actually did dog sitting and would love to do it. The next day I met with her and my little Billy got to see her house and meet her dogs, everyone immediately hit it off amd it was set! She sent me LOADS of pictures and videos of Billy having fun with her and her dogs, even ahowing me that she took him to the pool. It really helped reassure me, especially since this is the first time spending the weekend away from him. She really is the greatest and her love for dogs is evident.”

“Our pets took to her right away!”


Yuting D.
“I was out of town for a week and needed someone reliable to walk my Akita (Thunder). Yuting was an amazing dog walker! I love Thunder but to be honest he is a badass who loves to jump when he sees people or other dogs he doesn't like. Yuting handled him with great care and professionalism. She took extra precautions to ensure Thunder's (and others) safety and comfort. She is clearly experienced with handling large, energetic dogs. The other dog walker we worked with before didn't walk Thunder enough so during that time he was always irritable at home. Yuting also sent me regular updates like photos and messages. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing Thunder was in good hands. I would recommend Yuting for anyone needing a trustworthy and skilled dog walker!”


Christopher R.
“I've known Chris for nine years now, during which he has scooped dog droppings in my backyard and walked my dogs. He's always done very well by my sister, me, and our critters! I would have no problem leaving the dogs with him in any situation.”


Marisa C.
“Marisa has taken care of all my animals (dogs, cats, lizards, frogs) over the past 10 years and always surpasses my expectations. She follows instructions meticulously (which is very necessary for lizards and senior animals) and always takes my dog for extra walks. She is responsible and trustworthy, sometimes staying at my home for days on-end to tend to the animals' needs. She's got a great, warm personality, is very charismatic and it's clear that she cares so much for animals. I can't recommend Marisa highly enough!”


John G.
“John is the most caring, loyal, friend and dog owner I know. He and his family recused both their dogs from down south. Those two dogs, Daisy and Dakota, are so happy and healthy and full of love. He also helps volunteer at an animal shelter in Salem, MA where he walks dogs and much more. I've never met anyone who loves and cares for animals as much as John does. He rocks.”


Laurie S.
“I have never met anyone more passionate for animals in my life. No one is more will to help an animal in need, foster, adopt or fundraise for an animal in need. Laurie has helped me multiple times for vacations and my babies are incredibly happy with her care! (I am too!) I would highly recommend Laurie in all aspects!”


Allia P.
“Allia is so good and nurturing for the pets she takes care of. She is always so thorough in the actions she takes. Allia is just so good with dogs of all kinds”


Kyle J.

“Kyle helped us out with some extra walking while mama is away for work. He was communicative, punctual, friendly, and good with our pup. We'll be checking back with him next time we need a hand with Zephy!”
