“Margaret is awesome! Went above and beyond to make sure our pup was taken care of”


About: I have grown up around dogs, specifically seniors who are on medication or are insulin dependant. I have experience with training as well, having trained my own service dog who went to college with me. I also have raised rabbits and guinea pigs for around 8 years and have shown them acrossed the country. At the moment I'm on break from college, I have a lot of avaliable time. I'm willing to work with you and make sure your pet gets all the attention they deserve! My own dog and I go for several walks a day and we play a in the lake. I have a long haired GSD so he gets groomed daily and loves to sleep in his bed! I plan to provide similar enrichment for your animals such as mind games on rainy days and lots of walks when it's nice outside.

About: I love all kinds of pets. You will be confident in knowing when you leave your pet with me. They will be loved and happy. I currently work hybrid during the day with a very flexible schedule. I can come home at any time to feed or let your pet out. I have a large wide open yard. We live on a dead end road. I currently have a small toy Shih Tzu. She’s just over 15 years old, but loves to play with other animals.

“Victoria was excellent with our dog, Holly! She was incredibly responsive and helped us out on short notice. We would highly recommend her and would book again!”


“Dawn is definitely a dog lover. She was able to coax my anxious dog outside to walk and do his business. She is reliable and a good communicator. 5 stars!”


About: PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU REQUEST! I have had cats, dogs, bunnies, fish, and horses throughout my life. I’ve trained puppies and kittens, and travelled the world with my animals. I’ve also worked as a vet tech for a small animal clinic in North Carolina. Now I am a tiny human mom! I am perfectly comfortable to stay overnight, as long as your animals are comfortable with children. I am a single mama, so my daughter goes everywhere with me. I do also bring my mini Aussie on overnights (well trained and registered service dog). She gets along with any animal she meets. Please note this when making a booking selection, as I can leave her home when doing drop ins, but not for overnights ☺️ If you book an overnight and later decide drop ins suit better (or vice versa) - I will encourage an edit to the booking for integrity and cost purposes. We will leave your home just as clean, if not cleaner, than when we arrived ☺️ I work in education during the week days, but I am off work all school holidays (plus the summer), as well as weekends. I love spending my spare time with all animals! I am very attentive to the needs of all pets. I check for injuries regularly, and know the signs of distress and illness! Any sudden change in behaviour is a red flag to me.

“Our pets took to her right away!”


About: Hi, I'm Chris. I work in the gig economy and have taken care of a few dogs and cats in town and am looking for more clients. I can water plants, feed fishes and check the mail. I like to draw and can draw your pet if you want too. I have enjoyed taking care of pets when I travel far away and would be happy to look after your pets here or wherever. I have one client in town and one out of town. I work a flexible schedule so can accommodate both of them and many more. I would like to do less driving work and work more with rover, as it just wears the car out. I also sell drawings sometimes when inspired. At this time, I'm not currently having pets stay at my house. Maybe in the future I will host animals. I don't have the right space yet.

About: I have always had a dog. I start training them from puppy hood and love them until they are gray. Humans truly don't deserve dogs. I'm currently working part-time with an extremely flexible schedule, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I like to be able to have dinner with my partner and her teenagers, but I have availability during the day and at night. I have a puppy, Gnocchi, who is 6 months old, very socialized and loves other dogs of all sizes. We both have lots of energy for play. If your dog is crate trained, I will be happy to crate them for meal times or nap times if you prefer. If I come to your home, I will ask for your instructions and follow them to a T. If I come to your home for a drop-in, a walk or house sitting, Gnocchi can either join me or stay at home. This will be up to you.

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

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.

About: I have always loved animals. Since a young age I would always run outside with my dog to get her enter out and my own. I love going on long and short walks, as long as it’s with a furry friend! I am currently working part time, but still have plenty of time to walk or play with your sweet pups! I have always love animals and what a better way to spend summer than to play with them! I have a large front yard and a dog of my own so no need to worry about your sweet pups being all alone. I can also keep them from easily getting too far away.

“Ellie was great! She took really cute photos and my dog seemed really happy after her walk.”

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!

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!

“Our dog Henry enjoyed his first walk with Morgan!”


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.

About: I have hands-on experience with animals, caring for my family dog by bathing, playing, and loving her, and taking care of my cat by feeding him twice daily, cleaning his teeth, and ensuring regular vet check-ins. With a flexible schedule, working only three times a week, I have ample free time to dedicate to additional responsibilities. This will allow me to spend my time catering to your pets needs. To take care of pets in the home, I prioritize their daily needs and well-being. I ensure they are fed on a consistent schedule, provide fresh water, and maintain a clean living environment. I dedicate time to grooming, such as brushing fur and cleaning teeth, and I stay attentive to their health with regular vet visits and monitoring for any changes in behavior. I also engage them with play, exercise, and affection to keep them happy and stimulated.

About: Hi! My name is Coleman, I am 24, a life long animal lover, and Cornell student researching moral psychology! I have been doing part time pet sitting, dog walking, and cat caretaking for 8 years and I am really excited to bring my services to Ithaca! My schedule is extremely flexible! From early morning walks to long weekend (or more!) long house stays, I can make most any schedule work for my clients! I treat the animals I watch with care, considerations, and importantly with plenty of affection. But I also recognize every animal is unique and requires an individual approach, so I strive to interact with any pets, new or old, familiar or not, big or small, with the care they deserve!


“Kelly was great on time quick to respond last minute scheduling. Was very accommodating, to my requests. Although my dog was being ridiculous, he wouldn’t allow her to come near him... she tried for over an hour.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have loved being a Rover sitter for the last few years. I will make sure your furry friend is well taken care of and tired out when you get home! Our sweet black lab/border collie is a perfect playmate for other friendly dogs and would love to have some company! I am available 7 days a week for any service you might need! Since I work from home, I can be flexible to the needs of your pup. I have a big back yard and a very friendly black lab/border collie that loves to run and play. I work from home so can be around for full time supervision while your dog is in my care. I make sure to feed dogs separately and carefully supervise all play time

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 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!”


Desoni C.
“As a responsible and very loving cat owner, I would definitely recommend Desoni to be a great fit to be a pet caregiver! She gives an abundance of love, care, and attention to her pet ensuring her cat's or your pets' essential needs. Whether it be needing to pet-sit, taking them for strolls around the neighborhood, or just giving some extra friendly quality time and assurance, I am confident she would exceed your expectations for this role. Hope she is highly considered and hears from this company soon!”
