About: I've been working with animals since I was little. I've worked with all sizes of dogs and also have taken care of cats. I've watched senior pets and pets with specific health needs. I also have a formal education in animal behavior as a nice added bonus! I'm currently working part time during the summers and I'm in college the rest of the year. I have plenty of free time to watch your cats. I can do drop in/walks during the week and if you're pet is okay alone more than 4 hours I can also pet sit during the week. I can dog sit any weekend. I only do dog sitting as my home isn't suitable for boarding. I do however reliable transportation and can watch your pet at your home. I also maintain plants and some smaller reptiles/amphibians so I can help keep your house in order while you're away.

About: I enjoy animals and have had many experiences with cats and dogs. I've house sat for many friends and family in the past. I enjoy providing play time and positive reinforcement to any animal. I work in education and available for weekdays and weekends. My schedule can be flexible to fit your needs! Let's connect to see how I can help! I will provide individual attention and love to your animal. I will be able to play and be safe when interacting with your pet.

“Adriana was an incredible help with our nervous dog who can be a bit ~weird~ with strangers; she had our boy snuggling on the couch with her in just one weekend. She gives great updates and calmed every worry we had this weekend.”

About: I have had pets in my family for all of my life. Always dogs and cats, but also many different reptiles, birds, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters and both fresh and salt water aquariums. It is all too much work to keep so many pets myself, so I figured Rover was a way that my family and myself can share our love for pets with others’ animals. I am experienced with dogs of all ages from puppies to seniors. Special care or medicines are not an issue for me. I work evening hours, typically 3 or 4PM until 10pm-12am. My wife works 8am- 4pm Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, and works from home on Monday and Thursday. We have two responsible teens who also help with our pet care. Someone is almost always home throughout every day with the exception of up to 2 hours in the afternoon. I have a fenced in yard and an 8 year old dog who loves to play with other dogs. She enjoys when our friends bring over their dogs and she gets to run around in the yard with them. We have a gate to use in the stairs in case the dogs want or need a break from one another. Visiting pets will be kept in the downstairs of the house so the cats have a safe place upstairs. Most of the fenced in backyard is covered by cameras for your peace of mind. As an added bonus, my daughter has a dog agility course complete with jumps that she loves to run our pup through. Your little friend will get plenty of exercise. We also live on a quiet dead-end circle that provides a nice leash walking area with minimal traffic. As far as caring for your pets on your home, I will follow your instructions precisely and leave your house as-is.

“Jennifer is a good communicator, reliable and seems to be a natural with dogs. Highly recommend!”

“Annie is great! I work long hours so Annie walks my dog a couple times a week. She's reliable, responsive and she gives me cute updates and pictures after every walk. I'm lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her!!”

About: Before I could even remember, I have always been surrounded by dogs. Whether I am with small or giant dogs, I love them all so much! It is one of my many enjoyments to be able to make a dogs day (more like they make my day)! I am excited for the opportunity to walk, feed, and/or play with your dog! I am a graduate student working on my masters in school counseling. Being a full-time student, I have extensive time to be able to fit pet care into my schedule. Caring for my client's dogs, I treat them with the same respect and love as I would to my own dog. It is important for me to give them the most attention and affection because their lives are only so long. I will make sure that your dog is met with all their needs.

About: I have extensive experience caring for homes and animals of all kinds. Animal care is a primary source of joy and income for me. I also teach yoga and love to practice with the animals I stay with. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and am willing to learn more about other animals that need care while you're away. I will add, there is no option to add rates for animals aside from cats and dogs. I have an additional rate for animals in tanks or cages at a rate of $10 per tank/cage per day. After leaving my office job to fully embrace my passions, I’m now living the dream and dedicating myself to what truly inspires me—providing exceptional care for animals! Along with being a dedicated pet sitter, I’m also a yoga instructor and a songwriter, constantly striving to grow these professional paths. One of the best parts of my transition is the flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to offer personalized care to each of your pets. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll, a hike in nature, or a playful afternoon indoors, I can adapt to your pets’ needs and make sure they get the attention and love they deserve. I take pride in offering luxury-level care for your beloved pets. During house-sitting stays, I ensure they receive ample attention and playtime to support their mental and physical well-being. As an avid hiker, I make it a priority to get outside daily so with your permission, your pets will enjoy plenty of exercise and fresh air under my care. To provide the highest standard of care and give you complete peace of mind, I kindly ask that any special care instructions be shared with me prior to my stay and documented in detail. This allows me to tailor my approach and ensure your pets' needs are met with the utmost attention and professionalism. DISCLAIMER: To ensure the highest level of care and accountability, I kindly ask that all animals in the household be included in the booking, regardless of the level of care they require. As your pet sitter, it is my responsibility to ensure that all animals in the home remain safe and well during my stay. I also appreciate a tidy home with access to basic amenities to create a comfortable and productive environment for everyone. House sitting is a holistic responsibility, encompassing the care of your home and all its furry, feathered, or scaled residents, ensuring the entire household remains harmonious. Thank you for your understanding and for entrusting me with the care of your home and pets. I look forward to working with you!

About: I don't remember a time when I haven't had an animal in my life! I grew up with both cats and dogs and enjoy taking care of both! Family members, neighbors, and friends have had me watch their pets of all ages and breeds from puppies to senior dogs and yorkipoos to labs! My favorite breeds are golden retrievers and black cats! I love playing with pets and giving them the love and attention they deserve! I recently moved back home to the Syracuse area and looking to spend some time with pets in my free time while I'm searching through the job market! Happy to come to you and your pet to give them the care they need! All I need is clear instructions to provide care and I’ll be excited to shower your pet with attention and affection!

“Sydney was great! I have two larger dogs and Sydney was very confident and it made me feel confident letting her walk them. My girls will be happy to walk with her again.”

I promise a wonderful experience will be had for your pet and for you! Thank you for considering me to take exeptional, loving care of your pet. I do daycare, overnight and will go to your Home to play and walk your pet! Thank you so much!!! Stacey

About: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.
