“Elizabeth was fantastic with our dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We returned from our trip and found our animals were happy and well cared for. Elizabeth went above and beyond and made sure our dogs had comfort during fireworks which typically cause them to have high anxiety. I’ll definitely book with them again!”
“Thank you so much for caring for our baby boy while we are gone. We have such peace of mind knowing you are visiting him each day and we love our photos we get. Again, thank you!!!”

“Venita was so amazing! She did a drop in and my pup was sick. She cleaned up his crate and played with him. She communicated well throughout everything. She even stayed later when asked, which I appreciated immensely! She sent photos of my pup as well, which was great. Will definitely book her again.”
“Mary was amazing! She was professional, accommodating, and thorough. She was patient and thoughtful about addressing each my pets’ needs. Mary was clearly experienced in dealing with dogs with shy/fearful personalities and did really well with my dog (a rescue) who can be challenging to dog-sit. She was incredibly kind and treated my pets as if they were her own. I felt so comfortable leaving my pets in her care, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have been happier with the pet care service that Mary provided! Thank you so much! Highly recommend!”

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.
“Absolute pleasure to work with and takes great care of my three cats who all come to greet them each day. Takes photos of each cat and lets me know if there's any problems or concerns. The only sitter I will use!”
About: I've loved and cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. I now work remotely, so I can be quite flexible in terms of care and stays. While I live in Homer, NY, I currently work remotely. My schedule is extremely flexible, even with short notice. And I love pets of all types of sizes. While I do not currently have pets of my own, I lived as both a kid and adult with both dogs and cats. I'll keep them safe and shower them with love!
“Candyse was such an amazing help over the holidays while we were traveling. She checked on our cat while we were away and gave great updates on him each time, even sending us photos each time. She went above and beyond in helping us out. I would highly recommend Candyse to watch your pet.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid, having many pets growing up. I have volunteered in the animal care center at Greenburgh nature center where I got to care for a variety of reptiles and mammals. I have dog sat many family friends dogs, and also walked dogs for families I've babysat. Most recently, I worked at the Hudson Valley Humane Society Shelter where I mostly worked with farm animals and dogs, and is where I met and adopted my sweet boy named Suka. I currently am working in Ithaca 6:30-3:00pm and have the afternoons available I would be able to work in the Ithaca area or surrounding all the way to Truxton (where I currently live). Come this September I will have Wednesdays and Weekends completely available. I live on 5 acres, with plenty of room to play. I will always keep your pet on a leash or make sure there surrounding area is gated in so no one escapes. Having a husky, I am well versed on being prepared for escape artists.
About: I’ve taken care of our family dogs, cats and chickens for over 20 years. Our animals are a part of our family and are treated as such! Good exercise, healthy food and regular grooming are essential to taking good care of our pets! Although I am a full time teacher, our dogs are walked twice daily. Our dogs are brushed out daily to maintain their coat. I ensure that our animals receive the care and attention needed to feel loved by and connected to us. Our dogs have a fenced in back yard for fetch and a nice neighborhood/pond area for walks. I will take good care of your animals by ensuring good exercise and care taking.

Aaron F.
“Aaron is one of the most kind, gentle souls I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for over 22 years, and I can confidently say there are few in this world I trust more than him. Every animal I’ve ever seen him with, including my own dog, is both safe and loved in his presence. I never let anyone other than my mother watch my dog, but if I needed to, I’d hand her to him without a second thought. He’s trustworthy and dependable in ways most could never achieve. I couldn’t possibly recommend him more to care for anyone’s pets. He is a diamond in the rough, and your pets will always be in great hands.”
