I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★

My dogs absolutely LOVED Rico! He did such a great job with them. And when we had a small “emergency” and couldn’t be home by the time scheduled he willingly stayed until my husband arrived hours later! I HIGHLY recommend Rico!!!

Ranait was an incredible house sitter for my shy and nervous dog! She had last minute available to help us out in a pinch and was so thoughtful in her communications and updates. She took excellent care of the house and most importantly, my furbaby. We’d use Ranait again in a heartbeat!

Lauren responded quickly to my request for a week-long stay at my house with my two rescue dogs. She brought along her dog, “Nala” and my sometimes cranky border collie had a great week playing with her. Lauren noticed my grass was tall and asked if she could mow-yes! I was happy to come home to a house that was clean and neat, with linens washed (!) and dogs well cared for. I will definitely be asking Lauren back!

Ona is wonderful. We were gone for about 2 weeks and she was wonderful for all our critters including (one large dog with some separation anxiety, one large dog who can be bit of a handful on walks). She communicated with me daily. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our home and beloved pets were in such good hands.

Alexis did a great job with Maisie and Doc! Last minute Maisie was diagnosed with having fungus on her nose which required applying ointment twice a day. Alexis was on board to help with medication and tactics to try and distract Maisie from rubbing her nose. Alexis also took both dogs for regular walks, which they love! We felt comfortable while on vacation that both dogs were well cared for!

Paulina was a lifesaver for us and was able to accommodate a very short request period and provided excellent care. She continually reached out to us with pictures and videos of our puppy and let us know how the day was going. She had very appropriate questions regarding his care and completed all of our requests without issue. We're very lucky to have found her and appreciate the work she does!

He didn't balk at cleaning up little cat puke! He is quick with communicating and sent us photo updates. I felt comfortable that our fur babies were being well cared for. Thank you Ricky.

About: I can’t wait to meet your pet! I am a vet student at Long Island University home for the summer looking for pet sitting opportunities. I have 5 years experience in a vet/ kennel setting. Given this, I am comfortable with pets of all needs. Currently working part time but I can be flexible and work around when you need me. I love to be active or just chill on the couch, whatever fits best with your pets typical lifestyle. I have many years of professional experience dealing with a wide range of pets. Pet safety is my number one priority. My first step as your pets new sitter will be to develop a safety plan so that you can have piece of mind.

Stacie was such a kind and caring sitter. She was very communicative with any issues and got creative with ideas when she was concerned my dog wasn’t eating. My dog is older and can be fickle at times, but Stacie really put my mind at ease that he was properly being looked after while I was away. I could tell she truly cared about making sure he was taken care of. I would highly recommend her and know that I found an excellent dog sitter that I will definitely be booking in the future.

Ashlynn was great with our two dogs and their cousin, all staying at our house for the weekend. They absolutely love her, they took to her the minute she arrived when we did the meet and greet. They latched on to her upon her arrival for the weekend as well. I don’t even think they noticed we left, they were so captivated by Ashlynn. Great communication during the stay. We will definitely book with Ashlynn again if she is available.

Mackenzie did a great job with our German shepherd puppy and our two cats! She even watched our house for us while we were gone creating a worry free vacation for us! She brought in our mail and packages, left us a beautiful hand written note and washed the sheets! She went above and beyond. Our puppy got plenty of walks and socialization. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos.. we can’t wait to go on another vacation and use MacKenzie again!

Dominic did a good job with our seven-year-old female Akita, Roxy. We recently adopted Roxy from the shelter at Rochester Animal Services and were uncertain how it would go. She clearly warmed up to Dominic. He also left our house clean and neat. It was as we left it. Highly recommend Dominic, we'll use him again.

Rene was great! My petsitter plans for the weekend fell through last minute, so I was happy to find her. We only adopted our pup 5 mo ago, &, being a rescue from a puppy mill, she is still scared of new people. But I knew Rene would have the patience & kindness needed for her. Rene stayed at the house, so my dog & cat had plenty of attention. And Rene kept in contact with me, including sending me pictures. She will be the one I contact next time I need a pet sitter!
