Pet care experience
I have chosen to be a pet care provider as a way to earn money because I really enjoy being around animals. I grew up with two dogs and have been employed in Ithaca since 2011 in taking care of several families' cats and dogs, including one family for over 6 years. My responsibilities have included feeding and playing with pets, and walking dogs on a regular basis as well as when owners are on vacation. I have also stayed overnight at clients' homes. I have a reliable car, I answer texts promptly, and I will always be respectful of your home. My schedule is flexible so I try to accommodate your schedule. I can provide references upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your dogs.

Reviews
John was absolutely wonderful! We were in a real bind when our sitter backed out at the last minute, and he stepped in when we really, really needed someone to care for Alex. He came over that same day, took Alex for a great walk, sent us pictures and updates, and made us feel completely comfortable knowing Alex was in good hands. He even brought Alex back to us afterward, which was incredibly helpful. John was reliable, kind, communicative, and truly saved the day for our family. We are so grateful and would absolutely recommend him!
Great communication! Things went super well and I’ll definitely work with him again.
John was amazing! He followed all guidance and my dog was well taken care of. This was simply my best experience with a sitter and I credit that to John for being attentive, caring, and anticipatory to my pets needs.
John is excellent, he took notes about Pounce when we first met and asked questions about anything he was unsure of both before and while caring for Pounce. He took great care of Pounce and provided detailed updates for each visit. Highly recommend!
