About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and have been around them my entire life. I currently care for two Labrador Retrievers of my own and regularly assist with caring for my uncle’s Great Dane. In addition, I have experience looking after a variety of dog breeds of all ages for friends and family. Due to this time spent surrounded by dogs I have developed a strong understanding of canine care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and am passionate about ensuring that they are healthy, happy, and well cared for. I'll have plenty of time this summer while off from school to care for your dog. I'm used to spending my days tending to my pups schedules so taking care of other dogs will come natural to me. I'm familiar with pet safety and will prioritize comfort and care while visiting with your dog. However that looks for you I will honor that.
About: Since I was born I was surrounded by dogs. I moved to the Syracuse and my dogs stayed home so I have a lot of attention to give Half of the week I work from home so I can be with the dog. We’ll have lots of play time. The dog will not miss you. Just kidding! But I will me give my heart out. I know how it is to trust someone else with your fur baby, so I’ll do everything I can to make everyone feel safe. I live in an apartment. We’ll go for walks in downtown or a park. Every recommendation taken (food, medicine , toys , etc) just let me know

About: Hi, I'm Brooke! I’m 19 years old and have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, I was never without a pet, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. My first cat, Hunter Patches, was a huge part of my life before he passed last year. Since then, I’ve welcomed two new cats, Loki and Marie, into my family. I also have a 10 year old rescue dog named Gunner and recently rescued a bearded dragon named Dino. I’m comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles, and I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check on, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have a flexible routine and enjoy spending time feeding, playing with, walking, and giving attention to pets throughout the week. I will care for your pets like they’re my own by keeping them fed, comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their routines closely, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel calm and cared for in their home environment.
About: I am a young and energetic college athlete who’s grown up with dogs and have a puppy of my own. Just looking for something to do for fun on my days off from my restaurant job! I am a student in college while playing lacrosse so I have here and there times to be around. I am around most days after 4pm and my weekends are available depending on my game schedule! I have been dog sitting many neighbors for years, including a wide variety of breeds and sizes. Walking is always a given and having my own dog, we sit outside and play fetch about 3-4 times a day.
About: What distinguishes me from other dog sitters is my lifelong companionship with dogs, instilling in me an innate understanding of their needs and behaviors. Beyond my extensive experience as a dog owner, I possess specialized skills that cater to a wide range of canine requirements. Whether it's training energetic puppies, ensuring the comfort and well-being of senior dogs, or simply providing a safe and loving environment, I am well-equipped to handle diverse situations. Your furry companions will not only receive responsible care but also benefit from my adeptness at creating tailored routines that accommodate their unique personalities and preferences. With me, you can rest assured that your beloved dogs will be treated with the utmost respect, attention, and devotion. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily and weekly routine, even with a full-time job. Despite my professional commitments, I am devoted to providing exceptional care to dogs. During weekdays, I prioritize early morning walks and playtime before work, ensuring they start the day with positive energy. I've strategically structured my evenings around quality time with the dogs, focusing on exercise and interaction. On weekends, I offer extended care and undivided attention, making it the perfect opportunity for boarding and a truly immersive experience. My commitment to their well-being and my ability to provide attentive care during the weekends guarantees that your dogs will receive the utmost attention. When caring for pets, whether in my home or at the client's residence, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. If providing care in my own home, I ensure a cozy and pet-friendly environment. I'm fortunate to have access to a nearby dog park within my apartment complex, where dogs can socialize, play fetch, and enjoy outdoor activities. Additionally, I'm conveniently located near various walking and hiking trails, which offer stimulating adventures for energetic dogs to explore nature. For those preferring a more relaxed setting, there's a spacious greenspace near my apartment, ideal for leisurely strolls and lounging in the sun. Regardless of the service, whether it's boarding, walking, or drop-in visits, my goal is to create a tailored experience that aligns with each pet's individual needs and preferences, making their time with me both enjoyable and fulfilling.
“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!”

“Jessie was phenomenal watching Keena! I highly recommend booking Jessie to care for your pets. The level of genuine, positive care Keena received was amazing. My original care plans fell through and Jessie was kind enough to accept my last-minute request. Not only was Jessie gracious enough to accept help me out, but Jessie came by to meet Keena and make her feel comfortable before watching her. Jessie gave many updates, sent photos, and was always playing with Keena during visits; clearly making her feel comfortable. Jessie also dealt with some fear issues my dog was having, and did everything possible to make Keena feel better. When I returned from my trip, Keena was wagging and happy as could be, which told me she was well taken care of while I was away!”
