“John was fantastic! Our very shy dog with separation anxiety warmed up to him immediately, and our cat loved him too. He sent regular updates and pictures and took good care of the house. Plus he’s a vet! We felt so comfortable and knew our babies were in good hands!”

Emily A.

“Our pets (dog, cat and fish) were very well taken care of by Chris while we were away for over a week. Chris asked lots of detailed questions, sent regular updates, and even got to pet our very shy kitty, who is terrified of strangers. Everyone was very happy and healthy upon our return. We will definitely book with Chris again.”

“Thank you Rob! Our menagerie is happy and healthy, and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip with (human) family knowing all was good at home. Looking forward to seeing you again!”

About: I'm an experienced pet Mom, who currently has three fur babies of her own, and would love to be able to take care of your babies when you're not available to! I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have had at least one dog of my own continuously since 1995, and I have extensive experience with many different sizes and breeds of dogs, as well as cats, small animals and reptiles. I also have extensive experience caring for ill and injured animals, as my Great Dane had many health issues, and I also cared for her post-op after two surgeries and a resulting infection. I currently work full-time in Syracuse and I will be keeping that job, but I am available week nights from 5:00 p.m. on (after 9:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays), and any time Saturday or Sunday. I am looking to provide pet care in your own home. I am dependable and have my own reliable transportation. Willing to travel within a 15 mile radius.

“Ethan was very reliable and communicative. I would certainly have him back to pup sit for Dani in the future!”

“We were extremely nervous about leaving our dog for the first time, having never used a dog sitter before. From the moment we met Briana, those nerves started to melt away. She was kind, attentive, and instantly connected with our pups in a way that gave us real peace of mind. Throughout our time away, Briana kept us updated with photos and little notes about how things were going. It was clear she wasn’t just checking in—she was truly spending quality time with our dogs, keeping their routine consistent and giving them so much love and attention. When we came home, our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Briana. She exceeded our expectations in every way and made what could have been a stressful experience completely stress-free. We wouldn’t hesitate to call her again and would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible dog sitter!”
