“Elizabeth was fantastic with our dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We returned from our trip and found our animals were happy and well cared for. Elizabeth went above and beyond and made sure our dogs had comfort during fireworks which typically cause them to have high anxiety. I’ll definitely book with them again!”
“Beth was fantastic. Sent great updates (even when my cat was being skittish) and made last minute extra drop ins for my cat when we got delayed getting home. Very friendly and communicative.”
“Absolute pleasure to work with and takes great care of my three cats who all come to greet them each day. Takes photos of each cat and lets me know if there's any problems or concerns. The only sitter I will use!”
“Thank you so much for caring for our baby boy while we are gone. We have such peace of mind knowing you are visiting him each day and we love our photos we get. Again, thank you!!!”
“Emma was extremely reliable and communicative. She let Leo express his needs (play, cuddling, chilling) and gave him the attention and time he needed. Her updates and pics let me know my cat was in good hands. I would highly recommend Emma for your cat sitting needs!”
“Naomi did a great job with our three cats! She was thorough in completing all the tasks asked of her, and updated us on each of her visits so I was a little less anxious being away. I'd definitely hire her again!”
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.
“Venita was so amazing! She did a drop in and my pup was sick. She cleaned up his crate and played with him. She communicated well throughout everything. She even stayed later when asked, which I appreciated immensely! She sent photos of my pup as well, which was great. Will definitely book her again.”
About: I've loved and cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. I now work remotely, so I can be quite flexible in terms of care and stays. While I live in Homer, NY, I currently work remotely. My schedule is extremely flexible, even with short notice. And I love pets of all types of sizes. While I do not currently have pets of my own, I lived as both a kid and adult with both dogs and cats. I'll keep them safe and shower them with love!
“Candyse was such an amazing help over the holidays while we were traveling. She checked on our cat while we were away and gave great updates on him each time, even sending us photos each time. She went above and beyond in helping us out. I would highly recommend Candyse to watch your pet.”
About: I have been taking care of my neighbor's and family friend's dogs and cats such as staying overnight or just daily care for around 14 years now. I do have a day job but I do have lots of breaks throughout the day to come check in on your fur babies to provide the best care! When I am caring for an animal at a client's home, I have no problem administering medications (I do have experience with this), following certain schedules whether it be bathroom, feeding, sleep, and of course providing the best care possible for your furbaby:)
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life and specialize in caring for all types of animals. I have taken obedience training and behavior modification classes. I am a responsible and educated adult who will keep your pet safe and who you can be comfortable to leave your pet in my hands without worry. A note about house sitting: I will have to bring my dog, Benny with me. He is a friendly Labrador Retriever and gets along with other dogs. As a teacher, I am available on nights after 4 PM and on weekends. I can come to your house or you can leave your pet with me in my home. I am also available during vacations and holidays. Rest assured your pet with be safe with me! I will take your pet out on a leash for walks and am flexible as to how you would like me to care for and walk your pet. I can come to your house or you can bring your pet to my place.
“I highly recommend Chantal for anyone in need of a reliable and friendly caregiver for their furry friends. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process and she was very accommodating to our two labs!”
About: I’ve taken care of our family dogs, cats and chickens for over 20 years. Our animals are a part of our family and are treated as such! Good exercise, healthy food and regular grooming are essential to taking good care of our pets! Although I am a full time teacher, our dogs are walked twice daily. Our dogs are brushed out daily to maintain their coat. I ensure that our animals receive the care and attention needed to feel loved by and connected to us. Our dogs have a fenced in back yard for fetch and a nice neighborhood/pond area for walks. I will take good care of your animals by ensuring good exercise and care taking.
About: I have had two dogs my whole life and I am in college, which means I’m dogless. I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was old enough to hold them, sick or just in need of exercise. With COVID my class schedule is easy but 3-6:30 is hard due to my practices. Other than my practice I am rather flexible in my schedule. I’m a total dog person and I am patient with animals. As far as COVID I get tested about twice a week from my school.

About: Hi! I have taken care of my friend’s dogs for 8 years, while they’re out of town or just at work, from puppies to adults, and it’s a lot of fun!

He also helps volunteer at an animal shelter in Salem, MA where he walks dogs and much more. I've never met anyone who loves and cares for animals as much as John does. He rocks.”

Aaron F.
“Aaron is one of the most kind, gentle souls I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for over 22 years, and I can confidently say there are few in this world I trust more than him. Every animal I’ve ever seen him with, including my own dog, is both safe and loved in his presence. I never let anyone other than my mother watch my dog, but if I needed to, I’d hand her to him without a second thought. He’s trustworthy and dependable in ways most could never achieve. I couldn’t possibly recommend him more to care for anyone’s pets. He is a diamond in the rough, and your pets will always be in great hands.”

She is passionate, kind, and an all around lovely person. She is also very aware, sharp-minded, and quick to action in situations of potential emergency. In my humble opinion, this is the best girl for the job.”
