“Kaylee did a great job caring for my two kitties. She was responsive and respectful. Both needed meds and she was comfortable administering them. I appreciated her daily updates and photos. I can highly recommend her as a sitter!!”
“I'm so glad I found Ariana! I moved for a new job with a demanding, unpredictable schedule, and she’s been an absolute lifesaver. She's kind, attentive and truly cares about my animals' individual needs. She took all my requests seriously and always goes above and beyond with her updates, which gives me real peace of mind while I’m at work. I’ve already referred her to a friend who’s just as happy, and I’m a repeat client myself. I can't recommend her enough!”
“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!”
“Our cat could not have received better care than what Ashley gave her! She took a shy scared cat and had her playing on her first visit. We received pics and updates every day. We did not worry about her after that. Ashley was a sweet and lovely young lady. We will definately ask for Ashley again!”
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: 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: 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.
“Simply incredible - we couldn’t imagine a better experience through Rover. Leah went truly above and beyond to help out our new cat. A model of expertise, kindness, and grace whom I would recommend to everyone.”
“Coleman is a true gem! Our poodle Coby is very attached to us and usually gets anxious when we leave—even if just one of us steps out. So we were absolutely amazed at how relaxed he was with Coleman. From the moment Coleman arrived, Coby liked him. Coleman clearly has a calm, kind energy that animals pick up on right away. Coby was so content during Coleman’s stay that he didn’t even wake up when we returned home—he stayed fast asleep on his bed! That has never happened before. Coleman is friendly and trustworthy. You'll enjoy having him in your home. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our beloved pup. Highly, highly recommend Coleman!”
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
“Jonah was amazing! They are extremely communicative and are really knowledgeable on what was best for my kitties. They always answer very quickly which is much appreciated. Everyday, they would leave thorough messages about how my cats were doing. I will absolutely be reaching out to them again when I leave town next!”
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.
“Robin was an excellent pet sitter for my two cats. She kept in good communication with me, sent photos of them everyday, and even brought the mail in. I enjoyed meeting Robin before my trip. Her straightforward and confident personality put me at ease. One of my cats can be very shy and it was great to see that she came out for Robin. Thank you!”
About: While you're away, rest assured that your dog is in excellent hands. You'll receive photos and updates, and your pet will enjoy walks, fresh water, meals, belly rubs, playtime, and more. No stress for you, and no stress for your furry friend, who will continue their routine as usual. I would love to meet you and your dog, get to know their environment, and see if we're a good fit. I have lifelong experience with dogs, including my 16-year companion, Jack, now gone, always in my heart... I understand the importance of peace of mind when traveling, knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. A happy pup means a happy owner, and peace of mind is priceless. I work from home... and I create my schedule based on needs and have flexibility throughout the day... it is a no-brainer to do this. I only provide drop-in visits and house sits... for your convenience and that of your dog or cat. Peace of mind for you, and your fur baby.

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!”
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.”
John G.
“John has had pets his whole life. Those pets have been lucky enough to live with a person who so genuinely cares about animals. (Especially dogs!) He is always sharing pictures with his dogs on walks and when having fun at home as well. John truly truly cares for dogs and there is no one else I would trust my pet with as much as I would with John!”
