“Lee is the absolute best! She’s my go to person when I need someone to sit my pup. He seems very fond of her. I’m at ease knowing she’s there taking care of the house and my pup. She’s also so sweet, she made sure I made it home safely from an international trip and double checked to make sure my Jax wasn’t left alone for too long.”


“Gabby took care of our 14 year old chihuahua, Bella, in our home for a week while we were on vacation. She did an amazing job- great communication, very reliable and Bella loved her. Highly recommend!”


About: I am very intuitive to what animals needs are. I’m patient and pets safety is my top priority! Comforting animals is a blessing that I can’t get enough of! My hours are a bit flexible but I am mainly have a lot of free time on Mondays & Fridays from 2-7. Saturdays and Sundays I am completely available. First off, I always read the directions multiple times. Make sure their food and leashes are easy to find. Then I always check the backyard before letting a dog out. I want to be sure there are no gaps in the fences or any other large wildlife they may want to chase. If in case of emergency, I would love to know what veterinary practice is used and emergency contacts if I’m not able to make direct contact.

“Taryn did a wonderful job taking care of my dog while I was in Asia. I received numerous photos and updates and felt so relieved my girl was taken care of. Thank you, Taryn!!”


“My dog can be difficult, and I’ve never left her with a dog sitter so I was quite nervous, but Dana did an amazing job. She sent me regular updates, kept my dog in her usual routine and handled her puppy energy like a pro!”


About: I have over 10 plus years caring for animals. I have experience with small or medium dogs and especially cats. Administering medications, walking, feeding, playtime and everything in between! Experience pet sitting for friends and family and experience caring for a movement impaired dog and diabetic cat. Im currently a Mechanic/Welder as a full time job Monday through Friday for a local company in Jamesville. Available anytime on weekends and limited availability on weekdays after 3:30 PM. I treat everyone’s pets and home as I would my own. Drug free, non smoker and very respectful. The safety of your property and pets is my top priority. Developing trusting relationships with clients and delivering the service you expect is my goal.

“Heather was wonderful with our senior dog, Pippin. Though he doesn't have a complex routine to follow, he's a quirky guy that likes to be VERY close to his person, is forgetful, and sometimes barky due to his age. Heather "got" Pippin right away. We felt she genuinely understood his habits and his singular approach to life. Heather sent just the right amount of updates and photos. Pippin was in good hands with Heather. We are very grateful to her and highly recommend her!”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I never had a pet of my own until I met my former partner and he had a deaf Australian Shepard and I fell in love with her. A year after that we rescued a mix and named him Archer and he is the most loyal, loving dog I’ve ever met. I’ve also helped take care of my sisters mini poodle on and off for about 3 years so have experience with big and small dogs as well as deaf dogs. I work full time currently Monday through Friday but pet care would be something I can do in the evenings and weekends, while also spending time with my own dog. I have plenty of paths and places to walk dogs near my home and my complex has a dog park to play and use the bathroom

About: ive been taken care of animals since i was young. I offer to care for the pets so the adults can have a night out. animals of all ages, puppies-kittens to elderly animals. i love watching each pet grow and have fun. i learn a lot from them as they do from me. and depending on weather ill travel with them to a local park to walk or run around without them running off. i am currently in the military one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer but it never stopped me from my passion of helping out when i get the chance to. holidays i can work with. a certain holiday is very special to me. I cant wait to work with animals and love it every day make sure each pet goes outside and gets there paws and bodies moving so they don't get stiff. feed them according to a schedule/ routine. pills will be giving according to there owners care guide. bring them to the vets or emergency vets if giving permission to do so. let the pet come to me and let them get to know my sent before i rush into to pets. talk with the owners to know where there items are and what is expected of me while they are in my care. lots of love and cuddles are important along with rewards and letting the pet have there space to relax.

About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)

“Talitha completely exceeded my expectations. She is responsive, caring and treated our pets like her own. Even my very slow to warm up rescue pup loved her. Rates are very restorable as well especially since she lives 30-35 minutes away. 10 stars are deserved 🙂”


“Hayley took fantastic care of our home and 3 dogs for 12 days and the dogs clearly loved her based on all the pictures we got and she was very communicative and sent pictures everyday. Would highly recommend!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. Today I have a happy 11 year old Pomeranian mix. I grew up with black labs. I love to play fetch and hike with dogs whenever I can. I have a nice, safe yard for play time. I also live near a great dog park. I have taken care of dogs of all ages and make sure I understand their energy level and needs. I currently work from home and have flexible hours all week. I will have work meetings for a few hours a day. Looking forward to helping with your pup! I love to play fetch in the yard or walk dogs to the park if one is close. I am a responsible and will make sure your dog feels safe on our walks.

About: I’ve loved dogs since I saw my first one. Caring for animals is one of my favorite things to do. I want to make sure they are so comfortable, it’s like you never left. My partner Rebecca is, naturally, every animal’s best friend. She brings a calming vibe to the space that is hard to achieve for everybody. I am 18 years old and a full time high school student meaning I will be available any time from Friday night - Sunday evening. We have a very carefully crafted schedule for all of our pets at home. Making the dog feel comfortable and cared for is my biggest priority.

About: I’ve cared for a multitude of dogs and cats and other critters including my own families, and family friends since I was 10 :)) I would LOVE to watch over other fury friends and offer your pets relaxation and comfort while you do the same! I currently work part time at a local mini mart, and part time from home as a writer, i keep a tight schedule with work and that includes pet care priorities I have a safe, decently spacious, private and comforting apartment in a duplex home with acres of land surrounding the properties, so the pets boarding here have lots of room to play, and relax :))

About: I grew up loving pets of all kinds. My dad is a retired dogsled racer and I've been around lots of dogs since I was 7 years old. Being introduced to dogs like that so young made me fascinated with them so I am overflowing wealth of knowledge when it comes to canines. I have 4 pets of my own so pet care is an integral part of my everyday routine. Feeding, walking, making sure they have water, pets, cuddles, and tons of affection! My own pets are my children. I don't have kids myself so I pour that love into them. I understand, like children, everyone is different with what rules and expectations they have for their pets. I will respect owners choices for their pets.

“Emily was fantastic! She made sure our girl was well entertained and taken care of including hugs and kisses. It was so nice to be able to be away and not worry. We will absolutely use Emily again. Thank you Emily!”


About: Currently I've no pets or children living in my home. I've had several pets over the years. Right now full time ownership is not an option. This is the perfect job, getting to care for others babies!!❤ I do rescue work with another agency. This means I have passed safety and background checks. I would not be accepting appointments while I am holding a rescue animal. I've a good sized, fenced yard, in a quiet neighborhood. I look forward to the opportunity to spend time and care for your pets, for a day or a week, or any time in between.

About: Over the years I’ve diligently watched a brood of two dogs and three cats for my family members. I will love your animals like they’re my own. I’ve had to deal with clean up from bathroom messes to throw up. I can follow strict guidelines about food or medications. If I am house sitting, I prefer to stay in your home as to not displace your animals and that also allows me to offer more care than just in the evenings. Even if it’s just one night. I’m respectful and tidy, kind and genuine. I do have a full time job (M-F 8:30a-4:30p) so this is strictly part time around my schedule. I will only be able to walk or bathroom break your animal during the week in the evening hours. All pet care will happen at your home. I am trustworthy. My apartment is strictly prohibited from having animals (I know it hurts my soul) but I can’t beat the rent so I abide. That just means your pet gets to be comfortable in their own surroundings and I can give more love to them as I’m not allowed to love on one of my own.

Eva B.
“Eva has pet sat for my sweet boy (cat), Simon, periodically for over a year. Initially I was nervous because he is a shy boy, but Eva is a true animal whisperer and he took right to her! Each time she stays with him I receive frequent picture updates which gives me peace of mind - not too mention she is a gifted photographer! I feel so much less anxiety going out of town knowing I can always rely on her to watch Simon. She is very friendly and personable and a pleasure to work with- would recommend!”

“Haley is amazing with dogs! I've seen how she is with her own pup, and it's clear he means the world to her. She takes Archer for walks almost every day, gives him tons of love and attention, and always makes sure he's happy and healthy. Her dog is so well cared for — any pet would be lucky to spend time with her!”


Katrina T.Star Sitter
“Katrina T is a great person to take care of anyones' dogs or cats. Kat has been sitting with animals for at least ten years. She has house sat dogs and cats for friends (at one time she house sat for two months while the couple was in Florida). Kat is prompt, keeps records of what the dog (s) was doing during the day or on the walk, and in the case of the couple who went to Florida she made sure the house and restored it back to a pristine condition. Katrina provides safe and loving care to all animals, including guinea pigs, and fish. Without a doubt I would recommend her to anyone.”


Patrick S.
“Pat is a kind and responsible person who you can trust to take excellent care of your “best friend “. Pat recently lost the rescue dog who was his companion for the last 13 years. While not ready to replace Buddy yet, he misses having a dog in the house and would be happy to care for yours while you’re away. Pat has watched dogs many times over the years for family members and neighbors who needed his help. He will play with, walk, and keep your dog company. I’m sure your dog will love staying with Pat.”

“Julie is a wonderfully caring pet person. She has experience with multiple breeds of dogs and cats having had many of her own. She often baby sits dogs from her neighborhood and when she does she treats them as if they were her own. There is a German Shepherd in the neighborhood named scarlett who normally is timid around people, but scarlett is always ecstatic to see Julie! She gives alot of attention to any pet she is caring for! As a dog and cat person myself I would trust her 100% with my animals!”


Faith E.
“Faith has been our go-to dog care provider for 5+ years! She loves our two dogs and three cats, and they love her too. She takes amazing care of them whenever we go away. It's amazing to have someone you can truly trust to take care of your animals when you're out of town and have the peace of mind that everything is taken care of. Highly recommend Faith (except on days we need her when we're out of town! :))”
