“Margaret took great care of our senior dog Rocco, and cared for my aquariums too! The neighbors now know and like her as they run into each other on walks. Dog party! We are very happy with her care and we don’t worry knowing she’s there.”


“Kendra always does such a great job with our pets! This is our second time booking with her and definitely not our last. We are so happy to have someone who can watch our babies when we have to go away. Thanks again Kendra!! :)”


“Kristi was so great with our 2 little guys. She went out of her way to come to our house for a meet-and-greet and then came back another time to go over procedures, feeding, etc. It’s very hard to leave your home and pups in the care of a stranger, but Kristi put us at ease right away and didn’t feel like a stranger at all. She provided lots of updates and we were able to enjoy attending our nephew’s wedding without having to worry at all!”


“Cammie was fantastic! Responsible and communicative, I had no worries entrusting my senior dog to her care. He took to her immediately and I felt completely confident he was in good hands while I was away.”


“Anastasia was so flexible. We needed to leave much earlier than expected and she showed up early at a moment’s notice. As always, our dogs love her. Thanks.”


“Riley 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 I’m a nervous dog mom so he was great!”



“Jennifer did a great job with Ted over her two-week in-home sitting. It was the longest period of time we had left him and we were nervous about how he would react. He has anxiety issues and seperation from us is hard for him. Jennifer was able to put us at ease by connecting with Ted quickly. Her daily communications were consistent and informative, and her response time to our texts was fast. Our house was clean and in order when we got back. Jennifer even swept up the dog hair! We would have Jennifer sit for us again any time and would reccomend her to any of our friends. Thanks!”


“Rachel is great. She clearly loves dogs, and our boy Rufus responded really well to her gentle deneanor. She was communicative and easy to deal with in terms of appointment set up. We look forward to working with her again!”


“She was so amazing! Leah loved her so much I dont think she was as happy to see me lol She sent photos very often and i never wondered how Leah was doing.. Shes awesome and We will definitely be using her again in the future.”


About: I am very intuitive to what animals needs are. I’m patient and pets safety is my top priority! Comforting animals is a blessing that I can’t get enough of! My hours are a bit flexible but I am mainly have a lot of free time on Mondays & Fridays from 2-7. Saturdays and Sundays I am completely available. First off, I always read the directions multiple times. Make sure their food and leashes are easy to find. Then I always check the backyard before letting a dog out. I want to be sure there are no gaps in the fences or any other large wildlife they may want to chase. If in case of emergency, I would love to know what veterinary practice is used and emergency contacts if I’m not able to make direct contact.

“Kara was great with my dogs. I have a grumpy old lady and a young and hyper cuddle butt. Kara was took excellent care of both of them. She watched them in our house and was also an excellent house guest. I would absolutely recommend her and will use her again.”


“Diana 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.”


“Macie is so flexible and helpful! We booked with her last minute due to a change in plans and we’re glad we did - we’ll definitely be booking with her again. Cargo was clearly very comfortable with her :)”


About: have extensive experience in pet care, having had many pets over the years. My journey includes rescuing, fostering, and rehoming animals, which has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of animal behavior and care needs. Throughout my experience, I've worked alongside trainers, learning valuable skills to help animals thrive. I pride myself on my patience, compassion, and unwavering love for animals, which I believe are essential qualities for providing the best care possible. My hands-on experience with a variety of pets has given me the ability to assess individual needs and provide the right support to ensure their health, happiness, and well-being. While I work full-time frok home Monday through Friday,my schedule is flexible and my love and commitment to animals are a central part of my daily routine. I make sure to devote my evenings and weekends to providing the care and attention that animals deserve. My special bond with animals allows me to connect with them on a deeper level, ensuring they receive the emotional and physical support they need. I understand how important pets are to their owners, and I treat each pet with the utmost care, creating a safe, loving environment where they can thrive. Whether it’s through walks, playtime, or simply being present, I appreciate the opportunity to spend my free time helping animals feel loved and secure. I have years of experience offering in-home pet care, which allows me to create a safe and comfortable environment for each pet in the comfort of their own home. As someone who lives downtown, I’m well-positioned to serve professionals who need reliable care for their pets while they’re away. Although I’m unable to care for animals in my own space, I pride myself on being a trusted, dependable option for those in need.

“Abbie is friendly, flexible and communicated great! We knew our pups were in good hands. She sent us pictures and updated us while we were away. Highly recommend her and will absolutely be using her in the future, thank you Abbie ☺️”


About: I've been taking care of animals since 7th grade. My family had their own dog and I used to care for animals around the neighborhood including cats and other animals. I take care of my former co workers dogs and my dad's dog. I'm a very active person, so I love to play outside and go for walks. I work as a teaching assistant full time and school gets out at 2:15 so I have plenty of time in the afternoon most days and could always take time off if needed for a long weekend. Plus school breaks I have plenty of time. I live in an apartment that has small dog parks outside. I'm very comfortable with letting dogs out in fenced in areas and taking them on leash for walks.

About: I grew up with dogs and all sorts of pets so I have been around them my entire life! I currently have an English Bulldog and a Boston Terrier who I trained when she was a puppy! In addition to this, I petsit for multiple families in my neighborhood! This ranges from overnight stays to just walking/playing outside. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes as most of my clients from home have large breeds! I also work at a dog daycare/boarding facility in the summer and volunteer at the CNYSPCA during my free time in college :) I’m currently a student at Syracuse University so during the week I have class certain days but am free before/after that and free over the weekends as well. I am very flexible when it comes to weekday scheduling as I am always willing move things around to make everything easier for you! I am a huge animal lover so know that I treat every animal with kindness and love. I will always make sure they are fed on time, have clean water in their bowls, can go on frequent walks/let outside, and lots of cuddles!

“Katherine did a great job watching Coach while we were on vacation! She sent updates of our dog every day and left our house in good shape. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need someone to stay with Coach!”

Throughout my time away, I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such loving and capable hands. Avery has treated our dog like her own, giving him plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. She sent regular updates and photos, which truly meant the world to me. It was clear from the very first meet-and-greet that she genuinely loves dogs and takes her role seriously. My pup is always happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared-for when I return home . I am so grateful to have found someone I trust, and we will absolutely be booking with Avery again. Highly recommend!”
