About: A loving indoor environment, hands-on care in a country setting with fresh air available and plenty of space. I am home all day except for quick errands I have raised and trained Brittany spaniels, Golden retrievers, and Siberian huskies. An accomplished trainer, devoted to animals, I am retired, a former farmer living in a quiet, relaxed home. I have ample time for walks, playtime, and rest. The yard is cleaned daily. I am long-time dog owner and trainer (and cat owner) who can handle any breed or any sized dog, small, medium, large, or bigger, offering long walks with ample room for exercise and play ...

“Monica was amazing with our dog! He came home happy, healthy, and was clearly well taken care of. He also had a great time with their dog. I will most definitely use her services again!”


“Laura was a huge help this past weekend while we were visiting the Ithaca area, agreeing to watch our pup, Beau, somewhat last minute after our original pet sitter fell through. She took Beau on a hike and sent great pictures, which really made us feel at ease. When we came to pick him up he seemed very content and like he had had a great time. Thank you, Laura!”


“Our pup had a great time! He was very well taken care of and we were updated through out the day on his stay! We will bring him back for to Destiny for sure!”

“Robert and Eileen were so wonderful with our dog Poppy! This was our first time leaving her with a sitter, she usually goes everywhere we do. They made her comfort and care a priority, and we are so grateful for that. She had a wonderful time, and came home exhausted in the best way! Excellent communication and very accommodating, we would certainly book another stay with them!”


“Susan is incredible and I'm so glad to have found someone my very anxious dog can feel comfortable with when I'm gone. Susan kept me updated (with pictures when Jade would cooperate) regularly and was kind and patient, even when Jade decided to turn up the dramatics. Would absolutely recommend for anyone with an anxious dog who needs a little extra love and care!”



“Incredible care given to my furkiddo- always confident in that my dog is safe, well cared for, being given attention and looked after in a safe and dog friendly environment.”


“Can’t stress enough how great Ashley and her husband were at looking after our two German shorthairs! They kept us well informed with updates and lots of picture and went to lengths to make sure the dogs were comfortable and happy.”


“This was our first time using Rover and I have to say it was very pleasant. Sheila was great Even when I was having difficulty booking she was easy to reach with answers. We really appreciate the fact that we met outside which allowed both our dogs to meet and greet on neutral grounds. Sending us a picture showing that Mila had found a comfortable spot and settled in was great. We are happy to have found someone close to our home, who will make it easier when we have those last minute plans and won’t have so scramble to find good care for Mila when are away. We will definitely ask Sheila to board Mila in the future. Biagio and Kudzai”


“Hanna took wonderful care of Bodhi! I appreciated her sensitivity and kindness with my older dog. I would definitely have Bodhi stay with her again.”


“Andrea took great care of Izzi! She was communicative and clearly has a lot of experience with dogs. She was also very accommodating of my changing schedule.”


“Rachel is so sweet with our dog! He stayed with her for a week when we were out of town, and Rachel sent us lots of photos and kept us updated on how he was doing. He definitely had a great time with her - we’ll book with Rachel again in the future!”



“Steve and Patty were able to squeeze us in at the last moment; for that we are truly grateful. Our little pooch had a great time. Maybe it’s my imagination but he was all smiles when we got home as if he was trying to tell me about his week. Steve and Patty are wonderful hosts. I highly recommend them.”


“Claudia is the best! I had a last minute trip come up and Claudia was super accommodating. I appreciated all the updates and pictures. I know Leia (my dog) had a great time. Thank you!”


“Ray has taken Oona while I’ve been away twice and both times was great with communication and sending pictures. He was flexible and thoughtful. I’m so happy I’ve found someone I so dependable who I can trust to care for my little girl.”


About: I have raised and lovingly cared for 3 dogs in the last 20 years. Your pet will feel like they are at home when you're away.. I am a local teacher with my summer off. I have two dogs and children but they travel between two houses. While your pet stays with me it would be just them and myself, they would get my full attention! My yard is set up for games of catch or just exploring new smells. I have a fenced in backyard and an already established dog friendly home. I love walking around my neighborhood and to the park. I am able to drive to your home if needed to feed, let out or walk your pet.


“Aaron & Kaylee (Malcom & Mutts) are simply amazing at what they do. We have been boarding and doing training and doggy daycare with our Frenchie since he was a puppy, and also have them work with our aging greyhound. They are knowledgeable, kind, and simply excellent with dogs. We love knowing we can leave our fur babies with them and that they are always in good hands. You can't go wrong with this team!”
