“Alex's set up was perfect for Oreo with lots of land to run around and play in and cozy spots to rest and chill. He only takes a few dogs at a time and they all seem to get lots of love and play. He was flexible when we had a sudden change to our schedule and we really appreciated that! Would definitely recommend his care for your pup.”



“This was a repeat trip for us and I really just cannot speak highly of them!!! The care they provide for my dog is just amazing and it is so nice to not have to worry about her while she is away. Keiko has been there twice now and we will be repeat clients for life. Truly cannot speak highly enough about them. To know your dog is safe, loved for, comfortable and taken care of is the best and they provide above and beyond service! Keiko has been a little fearful of other dogs before but they have taken the time to introduce her properly and socialize her when she is staying with them. Again — above and beyond! Your dog will be safe and happy. I couldn’t recommend anyone else.”


“Ashley and her family took wonderful care of our dog Lady when I was visiting Ithaca for a long weekend. She sent daily doggy updates and lots of cute pics of Lady with her dog Wally and her son. Highly recommend Ashley and her family to care for your dog…just wish they lived closer to me! I will definitely bring Lady back to her family if I return to Ithaca in the future”


“Darlene is an amazing sitter. My dog had a great time with her. He was well taken care of and I received all necessary updates needed. He returned home very happy and content.”


“Viviane was great to work with. She communicated well all throughout the process. She kept us informed of how Sissy was doing with updates each day. Sissy doesn't seem to be out of her normal routine. Thats a big plus for our busy schedule. Next time we travel we will look for her to watch Sissy for sure.”


“Luna loved being with Kristen. She had so much fun! Kristen was amazing and kept us to date on Luna’s day through out are trip. We will definitely be using her again!”


“Christine and Matthew are wonderful! Great communication and very accommodating. Ollie is always a little nervous when I first leave him somewhere new, but he couldn’t have been more happy and calm when I picked him up. Will definitely try to book with them again in the future. Highly recommend”


“Echo had a great stay with Stacey. She provided updates throughout the day and gave me a good report when I went to pick him up. She has a huge backyard that I know Echo loved. We look forward to booking again with her in the future.”


“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!”



“I can’t say enough nice things about Jessica and Eric, their beautiful family and puppo, Alex! They took great care of my two senior dogs and provided me with a myriad of photos. This is my first time leaving them with a Rover sitter, and it was a great experience hundred percent will be using them again.”


“Anthony is a great choice for your furry friends while away! He was flexible and accommodating with my request of meeting at his house before watching my dogs. I received photo updates and felt comfortable with my dogs being in Anthony’s care. His sweet pup added to the fun and beautiful property provided plenty of space for romping around. I will be using Anthony again!”


“Denver had another great stay with Ashley and Brian! He is always cared for and we know he had a good time while we were away. We also appreciate the great communication throughout his stays. Thanks again!”


“As always, our boys Richard and Philip had an incredible time staying with Robert and Eileen! They got lots of exercise in the big fenced yard, despite the tundra-like conditions, and we got detailed updates every day with cute photos and videos. Richard even learned to fetch! Robert and Eileen are gems, and I would leave them a 10 star review if I had the option!”


“We highly recommend Laura. She's very professional, very caring, and is an awesome person all around. We know our dog is in great hands with Laura and she sends us photos each day of our dog having fun while we're away. We'll be hiring Laura as our go-to dogsitter for many years to come.”


“We have used Destiny 4 times now. Destiny is a true soul & just really loves dogs. Nová loves being with her & her family! Love it I'll be by to bring that $10 so sorry ”

“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!”


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!

“Very responsive. Constant updates and photos so you can relax on vacation! Huge plus of knowing my Bella is taken care of and calm. Would recommend Megan to all my friends and family. BEYOND SATISFIED !! ❤️”


“Chantal was a fantastic sitter for our puppy, who struggles with separation anxiety. She provided exceptional care, making him feel right at home and showing remarkable patience throughout his overnight stay. Her dedication and kindness were truly comforting to us. We highly recommend Chantal to anyone seeking a caring and attentive pet sitter. We're grateful for her service and will definitely seek her help again.”
