âMargaret stopped by our house to meet Ruck before sitting for a few days. Margaret followed our instructions to a tee and provided us with photos each time she stopped by to Ruck for a walk.â

âShe spent a lot of time cuddling and playing with my dogs. She was great with communicating and sending updates. My senior dog needs medicine, and my rescue can be needy at times and Cammie had no problem managing their needs.â
âVery quick response, and I so appreciate the care taken to do a meet-and-greet beforehand. It definitely put us and our two girls at ease! Jamie was punctual, caring, and attentive--will definitely book again!â
âRJ is one of the sweetest people that I have ever met! As a dog mom who has never left her pups with anyone over night before, RJ put my mind at ease and took such great care of our two babies! I would absolutely recommend RJ to anyone & we will definitely be reaching back out in the future! Thank you RJ, youâre the best!!â

âAmoreena was great! My dog has a lot of energy and gets very excited, but she took him out hiking and had no trouble keeping him occupied. I appreciate that she sent regular updates and I came home to a happy dog. Would definitely book again!â

About: I have pet sat for neighbors and family friends for years and for long periods of time. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and fish. I also have experience working with reptiles and snakes as an intern for an environment education center. I took care of a box turtle, corn snake, and painted turtle. I am in college full time but am willing to watch or stop by when I am not currently taking a class. I am a junior at SUNY ESF. And have a relatively light schedule that would allow me to dedicate hours to your pet if needed. As I live in an apartment I do not have any pets nor can I board pets. However, I have my own car so I can travel to take care of pets. If you wish to have overnight care I can stay on a couch or blow up mattress by your pet for safe company.
About: Since middle school, I have been known among friends and their families for my reliability and enthusiasm in caring for their pets. Recently, I have provided regular pet care services, including dog walking, cat and dog sitting, and checking in to let dogs out for multiple friends. My experience and dedication ensure that pets receive attentive, loving care in their ownersâ absence. I currently work two part-time jobs with limited hours, giving me a flexible schedule. This allows me to be available most of the time and accommodate scheduling. With clear instructions on dos and donâts I am positive I can insure that your pet is well taken of and keep hopefully happy along the way
âKristi was amazing with our crew !! She knew we had just taken in our Gracie as a rescue pug and gave her all the extra love and snuggles that she needed to feel safe and loved ....she spent lots of extra time in our home to ensure they didn't feel our absence even working remotely at our place which was great for our pugs/cats. She kept us informed of daily events and sent lots of snuggle snaps which made us feel better. Kristi even left us homemade biscotti for our return home. I can say with full confidence that Kristi is motivated by love of animals and helping others...we will most certainly hire her back to our home for all our Rover needs :)â

âKarah did an incredible job with my animals and house.I cannot recommend her highly enough.My animals are rarely left overnight much less for 2 weeks, my dog is fragile and requires medication 2x a day.They were happy; secure and healthy when we returned.â

âTyler was very thoughtful, communicative, and helpful the whole time I was away. I felt completely comfortable having him in my home . . . and based on the pics so did my dog Cooper :) would have Tyler back any time!â

âIf I could give 10 stars I would. We have an elderly dog, 17 years old. She can't hear and can only see out of one eye. Nicole was very patient with her, making sure she got in and out of the house in the horrible weather we had around the New Year. Our under 1 year old kitten adored Nicole. We were afraid that our pets wouldn't want us to come home! Nicole kept us up to date, sent pictures which were important to my 10 year old daughter, and kept the house nice and tidy. It was so nice to be able to go away and not worry. She also brought in our mail and had the driveway snowblowed! She went above and beyond. Highly recommend!â

âWe had to go out of town for a week for our wedding. As it can already be a stressful time planning a wedding, Emalyn kept us updated every single day with a picture of our dog and ensured she was doing great, giving us a peaceful mind for our big day. Emalyn did an absolutely amazing job. I have a pitbull rescue that is very hyper and Emalyn made sure she had her full attention and playful times with her. I will definitely book Emalyn again to watch our dog again!â

âDiana was fantastic and we would 100% book her again. Our two dogs took to her quickly at our initial meeting, which put me at great ease. She stayed in our home for 3 nights with our 11 month old puppy and our 14 year old dog. They both have completely different personalities and needs. Diana sent us videos and photos of the dogs, and little updates each day. The house was also well taken care of and looked as if no one had been here. We were able to enjoy our trip without worry and knew the dogs were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter.â

âRiley was very good and I would recommend him to annyone and use him again! I texted him daily to check on the pups and he always responded back! Very nice and Iâm a nervous dog mom so he was great!â

âNicholas was a great sitter! He followed our complicated instructions to a T and made sure to give the dogs lots of exercise. He shared plenty of updates as well so we were never worried about the health and happiness of our pups.â

About: I volunteered at the animal shelter Wanderes Rest all throughout high school. I have experience with many different kinds of animal behaviors. I work as a vet assistant for my job. Which means I know how to handle and take care of your precious fur babies. I can teach new commands if requested. I have experience with giving oral medication to both cats and dogs. I have experience with taking care of both senior cats and dogs. I will be attentive and detail oriented to their needs and care. I have experience with responding to emergencies in a calm and efficient manner. As well as keeping you updated about your pets wellbeing with LOTS of pictures. I've had stray dogs and cats approach me. Without doing anything to get their attention. Animals seem drawn towards my energy. Which is why I believe I'm the best choice when choosing someone to take care of your fur babies with Love and Attention while you are away đ I currently work weekends which means I am available during the week Mon - Fri. To drop by and check in on your precious babies. The only times I'm not available are 1-2:30pm since I walk dogs during those times. I am attentive and detailed oriented. I will follow your instructions word for word. Treating your fur babies like my own fur babies with Love, Attention, and Playful energy.
âTammy was fantastic! Our 2 Shiba Inuâs absolutely loved spending time with her. She took excellent care of them and our house while we were away. Canât wait to book Tammy again!â

Kara stayed with my two large dogs for 4 days, and was fantastic. She gave them lots of attention and plenty of exercise, and even got the really anxious guy to eat. Kara kept in contact and sent the best photos. It was a truly stress-free experience for me, and the dogs were very relaxed and happy when I returned. The house looked great as well. Happy dogs and a clean house; no better way to end a trip.

So happy that Savannah took care of my fur babies! I have a dog and a cat, and I enjoyed the daily updates and photos. She was always so pleasant to communicate with and took wonderful care of my home also. My cat, who is not friendly with everybody but immediately came over to meet her when she came in the first time, and I thought that was pretty impressive. I highly recommend her for any fur baby and house sitting gig!
