“Victoria is an incredible cat sitter. Our cats require a lot of time and attention, and she handled all of their idiosyncrasies with incredible dexterity. We would highly recommend. She was able to give one of our cats both immunotherapy injections and eyedrops. She communicated well and consistently, and we always felt that our cats were in the best of hands. The best, five stars, two thumbs up, certified fresh.”
About: I have always lived with pets! :) I grew up with dogs Ella and Koikkie when I was little, and loved walking and playing with them. In college I couldn't have a dog, but I did get my first cat, Oliver. He was more or less feral when we found him but with lots of love and food, he became a lap cat with a happy home on a farm. Two years ago I moved to Ithaca, and have two 3-year old Siberian cats, Nadja and Moose. They need a lot of exercise and play which includes taking them out on leashes to walk around the block. I also frequently cat sit for my friends who have a mix of young and old cats. I'm currently working part-time 5 days a week. I am available for weekend pet-sitting and short visits during the week. I work until 3pm on weekdays, and am available at most times on the weekend. I am more than happy to stay in your home with your pet, and would love to give them treats and attention. I love spending time with pets and can send you daily photos at their cutest moments :)
“Nicole was paid extra attention to detail during her visits with my cat, going above and beyond. My cat warmed up to her fast even though he is normally shy with new people, which shows how warm and calm her presence is.”
“Maria was amazing!! She was so kind and patient with my sweet (albeit difficult) cat! My cat has a bunch of health issues, and Maria did a wonderful job navigating them, including giving her meds! She kept in contact with me, sending pictures and updates that really helped put my mind at ease while I was travelling, knowing that my cat was in good hands! She was quick to respond to both my booking request and my questions, and was willing to set up a meet-and-greet with me and my cat, so that I knew she was in good hands. This is the most relaxing vacation I’ve had in years, knowing that my high-needs cat was in good hands. I will never book anybody else!!! She was so kind and patient, and my cat really liked her too! Maria did a wonderful job, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for somebody trustworthy to check in on their pet.”
“Claudia did a great job with Enzo! She's pleasant, dependable and I can tell she really enjoys what she does. Enzo looked so happy in the pictures she texted me when she did her drop in visits to feed him and take him outside. I will definitely hire Claudia again.”
“Rachel was thorough, asked great questions at our check in, and gave plenty of updates for the day and a half I was out of town. I would absolutely trust her with Tita again and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Caroline did a great job checking in on my cat daily as requested. She understood and did exactly what I wanted her to do for my cat and then communicated everything to me. I was reassured that my cat was being cared for very well which meant a lot to me. 🙏🏼 Caroline”
“Dina is amazing! From the meet and greet we knew that our dogs and cat would be in the best of hands. Knowing that Dina was taking care of our pets really allowed us to enjoy our time away and her detailed reports and photos were so welcome and reassuring. Our dogs were so relaxed and happy to see Dina and even our normally, standoffish cat enjoyed Dina's visits. We would highly recommend Dina to anyone that needs help with their pets!”
About: Hi! I am a huge dog lover and I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have a 5 year old mini golden doodle who’s very friendly. I work from home a few days a week so I’m flexible! I enjoy dog walking as it gives me a nice break from work and gives me an opportunity to meet new pups! I love all pets and enjoy giving endless amounts of affection and attention to them! I will treat them all as if they are my own. I have a friendly mini golden doodle. We go on frequent walks and play a lot of fetch. I will tend to all of your dogs needs.
“We booked Ruby for some drop-in visits with our senior dog over the course of a few nights we were away and wanted him to stay in our own home. She was communicative and conscientious with our dog and we had a great experience with her.”
“We haven’t been away in a while so our 4 cats are just very used to us. They were apprehensive at first while we were gone and a bit challenging. Michelle was great with the cats and stepped up to the challenge. She earned their trust and they warmed up to her by the end of the few days we were gone. Michelle was great with the cats and tending to their food and litter boxes. We hope Michelle can assist us again when another opportunity comes up.”
About: I am so grateful to have known so incredible dogs that have brought me joy in my life! Many of my relatives and friends have dogs that I have cared for, walked, and befriended over the years. Dogs are such special animals that truly bring out the life and love in everyone. There’s nothing more exhilarating than running around with an excited pup, and getting to give them scratches and pets afterwards. I would love to meet your dog and have fun with them! 🦴🎾 I work part time at a bakery, so I have the greatest flexibility on Mondays, Tuesday mornings/early afternoon, Wednesday evening, Friday or Saturday evenings. Let me know what works for you and we’ll figure it out :) I am currently unable to host other pets as I have an older kitty in my home & she is sensitive to other animals. I am willing to work with you to provide the best possible care for your animal in your home ❤️
“It has been such a pleasure getting to know Kait before her upcoming week stay with our dogs! Our dogs seem to love her already and she’s so friendly, courteous, dependable, positive, and knowledgeable. So grateful to have found her!”
“Caterina was an absolute lifesaver! She was able to accommodate a last-minute drop-in visit for my puppy, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her quick response and willingness to travel outside her normal radius to care for him. It meant so much to me to know he was in such good hands. I’m incredibly thankful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate care. ❤️”
About: I have been lucky enough to take care of dogs and cats with various needs since 2010, and I have loved every single one. My experience includes long-term stays as well as shorter-term care including walks and check-ins. In both cases, I prioritize your pets comfort by adapting to the details of their routine, as well as your piece of mind by sending along regular pictures and updates. I would love to care for your babies! I work part-time as a barista, so I am available for pet sitting/walking most afternoons and evenings as well as 3-4 full days every week. As someone who grew up with many dogs and who is a current cat mother, I know how much trust is involved in leaving your baby in someone else's care. I am detail-oriented, consistent, and compassionate, and will work with you not only to meet your pets individual needs, but to celebrate them!

Rossy was great! She took such great care of our dog while my husband and were away for a long weekend, dropping in several times a day. She wrote detailed updates for every drop in and it was clear our dog was in such caring and attentive hands. Not to mention our dog absolutely loved her! I can’t recommend Rossy enough!
Linnea kept in extremely good touch with me and found my dog’s food despite the fact that I never told her where it was. I asked if she could come earlier than originally planned, and she did. She was also flexible in that the first walk was supposed to be long and the second short, but because of the heat (he refused to walk the first time she came), she switched and gave him the long walk in the evening after it cooled down.
