Doggy Day Care in Ithaca

“Alex was super communicative before, during, and after Jack’s daycare visit. He made Jack feel very comfortable when we arrived and was attentive to any extra care he’d need as a senior dog. Jack will be back!”

“I cannot overstate what a lifesaver Jennifer was on our vacation. We had an air BNB that allowed dogs, but not unattended and were visiting friends with a cat who turned out to be dog phobic. We booked Jennifer the day before we left and she was so welcoming and flexible with pick up and drop off times and with her extensive kennel hours. My dog loved her own special vacation; with puppy playtime and hiking in the woods. She came home relaxed and super tired! The true marker of her own good review, was how happy she was to go back the next day! Thanks, Jennifer :)”

“Our dog Indy has separation anxiety so we are always hesitant to leave him with others. All of that hesitation melted away when we met Claudia! She is such a caring individual, and she was truly able to get Indy to come out of his shell and relax while staying with her. When I picked Indy up he was calm and relaxed and seemed like he actually wanted to stay with her! And Claudia's communication was excellent as well. All the photos really put our mind at ease.”

“One of the best sitters I've used on Rover. Very quick reply, very accommodating. Extremely smooth experience! I'll definitely use this walker again!”

“Hiedi was over the top great! She went above and beyond to give my dog Archie a great first daycare experience. She went to lengths to make sure he was comfortable with her dog, and vice versa. He came home totally happy, relaxed and tired. He can't wait to see Hiedi and Kenzi again!!”

“Ashley has been a life saver for me with her flexibility to watch Chloe on very short notice. With Ashley's knowledge and personality I know Chloe is being well taken care of and she feels right at home with Ashley.”

“Pistachio loved spending time with Kelly and her pup! Kelly was super communicative and sent us tons of regular pictures that kept us at ease. Would highly recommend!”

“Michaella is kind and great with my dog. She took Maple for a nice walk and took good care of her. Thank you so much”

“Kyle is a wonderful human being! He is friendly, kind, and compassionate. He grew up in a household with two dogs and a cat but best of all he spent his childhood at his grandparents farm. Kyle had chore responsibilities at the farm long before his age was in the double digits. He grew up caring for animals and I believe that is what makes him stand out among pet sitters!”

“Lorie was Cody’s first day-sitting with Rover and we are glad for this experience. Cody had fun at her home with her kids and dogs and came back happy and in good condition. Lorie communicated promptly, sent pictures and updates, was on time for pickup and drop-off, and was accommodating when it became possible I might change the drop-off time. Dealing with her increased my confidence in using Rover. I definitely recommend Lorie and would have Cody stay with her again when the next opportunity arises.”

“Super sweet family with the space, time, and love to share! My pups were happy and tired when I picked them up after daycare. Thanks so much!!!”

“Yuxin was so wonderful with our puppy this week! He was so excited to see her in the mornings and returned relaxed and happy when we picked him up. Yuxin gave us regular updates and photos and was always prompt in her communication. Thank you for taking such good care of our pup 😊”

“I highly recommend Andrea as a dog walker. She is a true animal lover who takes great care of all the dogs in her care. She is reliable, trustworthy, and always goes the extra mile. She always makes sure that dogs in her care get plenty of exercise and attention. She also takes the time to get to know each dogs personality and needs, so she can tailor her walks accordingly I would not hesitate to recommend Andrea to anyone who is looking for a dog walker. She is a wonderful person who loves animals and takes great pride in her work. Sincerely, Matt”

“Wenting did a great job with our super anxious pup while we went to Cornell graduation. She sent us photos and videos and took Luna out for a nice walk. I was very reassured knowing she was a future vet. I highly recommend her for anyone needing dog sitting in Ithaca.”

“Carly is an amazing pet sitter. She has her own dog and bunny and experience with cats. She is super responsible and it’s clear she loves animals. She took the time to ask me questions about my pets and followed through on everything I asked her to do. I felt super comfortable having her in my home. My dog and cat love when she sits for them.”

“So wonderful!!! Made my dog Peggy so comfortable and she has such a good time.”

“Gabby is the perfect fit for any pet owner in need of some help! I've seen her care for many animals, including my own dog, and have been thoroughly impressed with her patience and caring nature. She's a huge dog lover, so your pet will be in great hands and get plenty of love!”

“Sarah is the best! My dog, Kibou, loves her and is treated like a king. I am out of the house during the day and she walks Kibou for me around lunch time. Sarah goes on a quality walk and is on top of communicating with me every day! I could not have asked for a better dog walker! My friend used her for dog sitting as well and had nothing short of a good experience! If I ever need a dog sitter she will be the first person I go to!”

“Isabel is the consummate dog lover and dogs are super comfortable around them. Isabel enjoys taking our dogs on long walks, playing tug of war with the dog toys, and cuddling up for a nap. The dogs are always super excited to see them. Isabel is great with our high energy Weimereiner and our anxious Bicuon Frisée. I would highly recommend.”

About: I grew up on a farm, and I've taken care of animals ever since I can remember. I'm comfortable with horses, dogs, cats, cows, goats, chickens, and more. I've also served as a foster care provider since I was 15 when I lived with my parents. I also volunteered at a local rescue shelter and worked as a doggy day care counselor at Camp Bow Wow. I would have pets of my own right now if it weren't for the cost of care and the way I move around frequently. I'm currently a full-time student, but I still have plenty of time to care for your pups! My schedule is very flexible as I do most work online and from home. I live in a spacious apartment (in a renovated house), but I have a (very) pet-friendly landlord, a balcony, and a fenced yard. Not to mention several nearby parks!
