“We had a fantastic experience with our dog sitter Viviane this past weekend! She took wonderful care of our two golden doodles, Brody and Wynston and they had a blast playing with her sweet dog, Scout. Communication was excellent—she kept us updated throughout the weekend and sent lots of great pictures, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pups and made sure they felt comfortable and happy. We couldn’t be more pleased and would absolutely trust her to watch them again!”

“Jenna and her husband were great. They worked around my crazy schedule to get my pup out there, and we're more than accommodating when I asked to pick him up early because I missed him! The house was a nice space and well kept, and the yard was a super nice large space for the boys to rhomp. They were both really friendly and great with my pup, making my feel as ease to leave him with them. And their pup and mine got along really well, so that was a bonus that he had a buddy for the week! It was also really nice that I got pictures all week of the boys playing and chilling together. All around excellent experience, I can't say enough good things to say how pleased I was with everything. I would certainly look Jenna up again to sit for my pup! Thank you!!”

About: Hi! I’m Semaj, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Indee, my sweet and social pup who loves making new friends! I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and have become the go-to sitter for all of my friends and family. Your dog will be treated like family here. We offer a safe, cozy, and playful environment with lots of love, attention, and experience including basic training support. Whether it’s for daycare or boarding, we can’t wait to welcome your furry friend into our home! I work fully remote with a very flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I have a fully secure fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“Our dog Moose was really happy and had a great stay for 3 days. Kristin was in touch the whole time and made everything smooth and easy for pick-up and drop-off. Excellent experience. Highly Recommended!”

Matt H.

“Absolutely 5 stars. When we did a meet and greet, it was obvious my baby Aries had some manners to learn. Ria was patient, kind and confident in being able to care for my Aries, and the pictures they shared throughout had my jaw on the floor! My girlie who barks at everything was out walking. Amazing talent and heart. Would recommend, and 100% will be without hesitation returning to Ria when we need boarding for our girl.”

Nicole B.

“Daylin was a wonderful person to board our dog. Her environment is safe, her demeanor is patient and has a lot of knowledge of dog behavior. She was communicative and sent daily pictures. She really worked to soothe his anxiety and over-tiredness.”

About: Growing up I have always had pet including dogs, cats, and birds. I have loved taking care of pet since I was little and now own 2 pets of my own. I have worked in a pet shop helping puppies find great loving homes and I have experience walking and grooming dogs for about 2 years. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and cats and with puppies due to my past job and my pups now. I am currently working full time, but I do have Wednesday and Sundays off. I am available every Monday, Tuesday. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 5am-12pm. Im available all day on Wednesdays and Sundays I don’t have a fenced in yard but I am able to take your fur babies for walks and take them out of a leash. I also have 2 very friendly fur babies myself that will keep your pup company. I also am able to crate the babies if needed or as a safer option

About: When it comes to pet care, my unique approach and skill set truly set me apart from other sitters. I specialize in both ends of the pet age spectrum – training puppies and providing senior care. My experience and patience with puppies help them learn basic commands and house training efficiently, ensuring a strong foundation for their future. For senior pets, I offer gentle care, understanding their unique needs such as managing medications, providing comfortable mobility, and ensuring they receive gentle, loving attention. Additionally, I have a keen sense of understanding and adapting to each pet's individual personality and needs. This personalized approach ensures that every pet under my care feels comfortable, safe, and happy. My ability to connect and communicate effectively with pets has been a key factor in creating lasting bonds and providing a reassuring presence for them. Furthermore, I keep myself updated with the latest pet care techniques and knowledge, which enables me to offer the best care possible. My commitment to ongoing learning and improvement in pet care techniques ensures that your pet receives not just love and attention but also the most informed and modern care available. In summary, my special skills in training puppies, caring for senior pets, and a personalized approach to each pet's needs make me a standout choice for any pet parent looking for quality and compassionate pet care. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. My schedule is thoughtfully structured to balance pet care duties with other commitments, allowing me to provide dedicated time and focus to each pet. Daily Routine: Mornings are reserved for active play and exercise. This includes walks or playtime, catering to the pet's energy levels and needs. Midday is often a quieter time, ideal for feeding and some rest. This is also when I check in on pets for any midday care or walks, especially for puppies or senior pets with specific needs. Afternoons involve more interactive activities, such as training sessions for puppies or gentle playtime for older pets. Evenings are for winding down. This includes a final walk, dinner, and settling in for the night, ensuring pets are comfortable and ready for a good night’s sleep. Weekly Routine: Regular Communication: I set aside time each week to communicate with pet owners, providing updates and feedback. Continued Education: I dedicate a few hours each week to learning more about pet care, staying updated on best practices. Flexibility for Special Needs: My weekly schedule is flexible to accommodate any specific requirements, like vet appointments or extra attention for pets with special needs. This structured yet adaptable approach allows me to provide high-quality care while also attending to the unique needs of each pet, ensuring they have a routine that feels secure and familiar. Ensuring safety, building trust, and providing a comfortable environment are the cornerstones of my approach to pet care, whether in my home or the client's home. Here's how I address each aspect: In My Home: Safe Environment: My home is meticulously pet-proofed. I ensure that there are no small objects that could be swallowed, secure all trash cans, and keep all harmful substances out of reach. The yard is fenced and secure for outdoor play. Comfortable Space: Pets have access to comfortable resting areas, toys, and their own space to feel secure. I ensure the environment is calm and stress-free. Routine and Familiarity: I maintain a routine similar to what pets are used to at their home, which helps in reducing anxiety and building trust. In Client's Home: Respect for Space: I am extremely respectful of the client's space and privacy. I ensure to use only designated areas and handle only pet-related items. Adhering to Established Routines: Keeping to the pet’s usual routine is crucial for their comfort. I follow their regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedules as closely as possible. Safety Checks: Regular checks are made to ensure the home remains secure and safe for the pet, including checking locks, gates, and potential hazards. General Practices: Emergency Preparedness: I am trained in pet first aid and keep an emergency kit ready. I am familiar with the nearest vet clinics and emergency contacts. Building Trust: Spending quality time with the pets, understanding their likes and dislikes, and gentle, consistent handling help in building trust. Communication: Regular updates to pet owners with photos and messages help in maintaining transparency and building a trusting relationship. Whether in my home or the client's, my focus is on creating a safe, nurturing, and trustworthy environment for the pets I care for. This approach ensures that both the pets and their owners feel secure and reassured about the quality of care being provided.

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: I’ve been a dog parent for over 5 years and understand how important it is to meet each dog where they’re at, whether that means slow walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. I’m a collegiate runner who’s happy to go at any pace your dog prefers, and I’m always attentive to their mood and needs. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, and shy dogs, and I pride myself on being gentle, patient, and detail-oriented with every pup I meet. I run in the mornings, but outside of that I’m flexible and available day or night to care for your dog. Whether it’s a midday walk, an evening check-in, or overnight care, I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. I treat every dog with the same level of care and attention I give my own. Whether I’m in your home or they’re with me, I keep the environment calm, clean, and tailored to their needs, always respecting their space, routines, and personalities. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, leash safety, and how they respond to new surroundings. My goal is to make your pup feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away.

About: Volunteering at shelters and owning an array of pets throughout my life helps me understand fully how to care for a creature. I've never turned away an animal and have worked with nursing birds, rodents, bunnies, and kittens back to health after rescuing them. I also love working with exotic pets like amphibians or reptiles, but mainly I board and walk dogs! I'm very good at reading body language and training stubborn dogs, and working with animals full time would be a dream career. Right now I'm studying premedicine / ecology at UA and taking care of animals over the summers to save money for school! Going to Albany on the 24th! Until then I can board, but afterwards I'm switching my location and removing boarding from my services as I'll be on campus. Large yard with electric fence and 2 extra collars for a medium dog. Home with 3 accessible stories, dog food, treats, litter box, toys and plenty of enrichment. Dog beds and human beds for sleeping, large safe neighborhood for walks!!

About: Me and my girlfriend have 3 dogs together and have been around dogs our entire lives ,she also has been working with dogs for several years, she is currently working at helping hounds so we often are introducing our dogs to other dogs. I am currently out of work due to health reasons but will be returning shortly but mine and my girlfriends schedules are quite different so someone is able to check in once in a while, unless it’s a weekend then I will be home with them the entire day most likely and she will be home with them on Tuesday and Wednesdays on her days off We have a fenced in yard with lots of toys and dog beds for the dogs to play and relax, we also have inside cameras and an outside camera to watch the dogs, or incase we miss something and that way we can look back and see what happened. We have boarded for several people that my girlfriend met from helping hounds and from other jobs and always love the dogs as our own and take them on adventures with permission.

“Allison was so great with our puppy, he had such a great time. She sent us pictures of him during his stay and it made us feel so much better seeing him enjoying himself with her and her dog. She was flexible with us when our stay times needed to adjust a little bit also. We will be using her again!”

About: I've been a pet parent since my teens, from Dixies to Bernese! Would love to bring your dog with me on my walks/runs. I have a large fenced in yard for roaming and single floor home. I am available for boarding for weekends or full week. I do work 4-10s M-Th so would be better suited for older dogs if during the week. I am home Fri -sun for more attention on weekends. I have no kids and single floor home if those are restrictions for your pet. There is room inside for a crate if needed. The large back yard is fully fenced in and great for fetch. I do walk/run regularly and would love for your pet to join me if they are up to it.
