About: I have grown up around dogs, specifically seniors who are on medication or are insulin dependant. I have experience with training as well, having trained my own service dog who went to college with me. I also have raised rabbits and guinea pigs for around 8 years and have shown them acrossed the country. At the moment I'm on break from college, I have a lot of avaliable time. I'm willing to work with you and make sure your pet gets all the attention they deserve! My own dog and I go for several walks a day and we play a in the lake. I have a long haired GSD so he gets groomed daily and loves to sleep in his bed! I plan to provide similar enrichment for your animals such as mind games on rainy days and lots of walks when it's nice outside.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for 15+ years, from playful Lab puppies to senior rescues needing medication and mobility help. Growing up on a small hobby farm, I learned early how to read animal body language and keep routines calm and safe. Today I share life with my own Labrador, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur‑kid with someone new. I offer daily photo updates, walks, and custom playtimes—whether that’s a pond‑side swim, a gentle neighborhood stroll, or indoor enrichment games on rainy days. I’m comfortable with crate training, basic obedience, and administering oral or topical meds. Your pet’s happiness and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I work for a school, so I’m out at 2:30 every day and have summers off. I also have scheduled school breaks, which gives me extra flexibility. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’ll always follow your instructions closely—whether it’s locking up, feeding routines, giving medications, or keeping your dog on their usual walking route. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I love all kinds of pets. You will be confident in knowing when you leave your pet with me. They will be loved and happy. I currently work hybrid during the day with a very flexible schedule. I can come home at any time to feed or let your pet out. I have a large wide open yard. We live on a dead end road. I currently have a small toy Shih Tzu. She’s just over 15 years old, but loves to play with other animals.

“Dawn is definitely a dog lover. She was able to coax my anxious dog outside to walk and do his business. She is reliable and a good communicator. 5 stars!”

About: I carry poop bags & treats on me at all times. I have common vet meds memorized. I own plastic syringes. I have carriers in my car. I’m on a group text list for emergency wildlife rescue. I spend my off hours volunteering at a shelter for cats that also spays/neuters dogs. lol, hi, I’m Eli. I will care for your pet with so much patience, empathy, care, space (if needed), cuddles (if they are asking for it), or whatever is appropriate. Animals can do no wrong out of evil or malice in MOH eyes, they just need guidance and love and help! My biggest flaw as a sitter is that I tend to over communicate as a baseline — usually out of confirming their health / safety first — but I can discern what is an emergency and send summarized updates (i.e. by night or by weekend if housesitting longterm, for example.) So feel FREE to set a boundary; you can’t hurt my feelings. Just let me know how to reach you (message or call) & for what. My husband care for our cats if I need to house-sit, otherwise, this is my full-time gig lately and I absolutely love it! It’s my calling. 🥰 I leave a place better than I found it; I am highly polite and respectful and would never disrespect a client’s home; I treat it like I’m a guest on my best behavior of course!

“Great job with a shy dog. Got her to walk and play. Thank you, excellent job!”

About: Hello, My name is Monique. I currently have 2 dogs of my own that, I only just realized have officially entered seniorhood. I currently work at a local vet clinic here in Ithaca so I am also up to date and knowledgable about different breeds,foods, treats, and everything cat and dog! Ive been pet sitting and walking since the age of 13 Which has helped me learn all about caring for animals at all ages. From 4 weeks up till seniority, I can do it all and love every minute of it. Taking care of animals is something im extremely passionate about. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry(or feathered or scaled) friend! I currently do work full time and have 2 kidsof my own; and my work schedule does change from week to week but with a little bit of planning, im able to make most things work! Never be afraid to ask if you dee something and are unsure if im the right fit for you! Rover inly lets me specify certain details. I take all safety precautions, double leashes, prong collars(if provided), harnessed walkes, anything that YOU say works best for your pet, I am doing. I dont like to take the risk!

About: I have always had a dog. I start training them from puppy hood and love them until they are gray. Humans truly don't deserve dogs. I'm currently working part-time with an extremely flexible schedule, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I like to be able to have dinner with my partner and her teenagers, but I have availability during the day and at night. I have a puppy, Gnocchi, who is 6 months old, very socialized and loves other dogs of all sizes. We both have lots of energy for play. If your dog is crate trained, I will be happy to crate them for meal times or nap times if you prefer. If I come to your home, I will ask for your instructions and follow them to a T. If I come to your home for a drop-in, a walk or house sitting, Gnocchi can either join me or stay at home. This will be up to you.

About: Hi, I'm Chris. I work in the gig economy and have taken care of a few dogs and cats in town and am looking for more clients. I can water plants, feed fishes and check the mail. I like to draw and can draw your pet if you want too. I have enjoyed taking care of pets when I travel far away and would be happy to look after your pets here or wherever. I have one client in town and one out of town. I work a flexible schedule so can accommodate both of them and many more. I would like to do less driving work and work more with rover, as it just wears the car out. I also sell drawings sometimes when inspired. At this time, I'm not currently having pets stay at my house. Maybe in the future I will host animals. I don't have the right space yet.

About: Hi Neighbors, I am a Natural World Enthusiast looking to provide support to pets and their owners in the community. My heart is geared towards animals. I have decades worth of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small pets, from my own to friends and clients in the professional setting. My goal is to provide a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well being for your pet. I am here to help fill in the gaps in your busy schedules and be there. So whether your pal needs a hike, walk around the neighborhood, a feeding, medication dose (dogs and cats) or just a visit, I have your back. We all need movement, attention and praise, pets included. I use positive reinforcement as training method, for all pets at every stage. So whether you have a puppy with some aggression issues, a husky that needs a run, a diabetic cat, fish to be fed and admired, or an stinky old man dog that just needs to be sung to and told he's a good boy I am here to serve. I have two cats personally, they run the household and tell me what to do. They eat twice a day, get their boxes cleaned daily, and petted and played when they decide. Monday- Thursday I am available for pet visits from 10:30-2:30 and again from 5-9 pm Fridays - I am available from 10:30-1:00 for visits Weekends-vary During daycare hours I will always be in the home with your pet unless we are going on an outing together. Play, snacks, walks, songs, and naps will be provided daily. I do have two cats, who will probably stay out of the way, but cat friendly creatures are always preferred.

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds from a very young age. All sizes and breeds of dogs and cats as well as numerous livestock. Including horses, goats, sheep, alpacas, pigs, chickens, ducks, and numerous reptiles. Ample experience with senior and special needs pets as well. Happy to discuss any and all pet care needs! I have a very flexible daily work schedule and can easily accommodate your specific needs. I'm happy to take on clients last minute, schedule permitting. I unfortunately do not offer care for pets in my home. I will do drop ins, walks, and in the home over night visitations only

About: Who better than a veterinarian to take care of your best buddies while you're away? I am a new DVM graduate, and am happy to take care of your pets, no matter how old or young, especially those with special needs! I am certified in dog/cat CPR, and am comfortable providing any care needed. *Please note*: My providing pet sitting/dog walking/pet care services does NOT constitute a VCPR, and I cannot provide medical advice unless a VCPR is explicitly established in accordance with NY State Law* I prefer to stay in the client's home especially for dogs as this is generally much more comfortable for the dog to stay in their own environment. For overnight stays, I like to meet the dogs beforehand with owners present. This way they are assured it is okay to have me in their space for staying with them.

About: I've always been a dog owner since I was a young girl. I would watch/ walk my neighbors and family's dogs whenever they needed me to. I am Thorough and patient especially when it comes to our furry friends. I have a pretty open availability to care for your pups. I do work, but mostly from home. I am able to put plenty of time into your furry friends. I live in a community with plenty of sidewalks. I have a small little front yard and backyard as well. I plan to give your dogs plenty of attention and play time.

About: I'm the kind of person that would have a hundred dogs to take care of if I could! All of them would be rescues. I would love to help you take care of your animals while you're at work or away. I am a Hands-On, play with the dogs , make sure they get love and affection , walks and proper care. It would be a pure pleasure to be able to help you be confident that your animal is taken care of while you're away at work. I must admit I suffer from a little bit of empty nest syndrome as my youngest child graduated and went off and is now doing her own thing, it makes me purely happy to scratch a dog behind their ears and have them be just delighted.

“Debbie was a kind and considerate companion to our fearful little dog. Our dog is scared of new people and over the course of just few visits, our dog warmed up to Debbie. Debbie respected Bear’s boundaries and earn her trust in no time. We can’t thank you enough, Debbie!!!”
