“Nicole just completed her first set of visits with Gaia. It went great! Nicole communicated with us really well. She sent lots of pictures and asked questions as needed, but mostly she spent time with Gaia and followed her cues which was really important to us. We came home to a very happy cat! Thank you, Nicole!”


About: I specialize in caring for small/medium breed dogs in a peaceful, country home just five minutes outside of Ithaca. With experience ranging from young dogs to seniors, I provide a calm, structured environment where your pet can feel safe and at ease. What sets me apart is my exclusive focus on smaller breeds. As the owner of two small dogs myself (a Chihuahua-Terrier mix and a Pomeranian), I understand their specific needs and personalities.

Whether your dog is older and needs a gentler pace, or simply enjoys a low-key environment, I’m here to provide a safe and loving stay. I work full-time as a remote software engineer, which means I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent supervision and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention—ensuring your small dog is never left alone for long stretches and always feels cared for. Because I’m home-based and live in a quiet, country setting just outside of Ithaca, I can maintain a calm, structured environment that’s perfect for small breeds who thrive with routine and a peaceful atmosphere. I offer exclusive pet sitting services at my home, ensuring a safe and loving environment for your pet. With a large yard and the companionship of my own two playful dogs—a Chihuahua mix and a Pomeranian —your pet will enjoy playtime, walks, and personalized care. I prioritize their comfort, security, and individual needs, providing a home-away-from-home experience.

“Sara took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days. She provided updates each visit and included multiple photos of him. I felt comfortable that he was being taken care of all weekend and came home to a happy cat. I highly recommend Sara and will be contacting her for future services next time I need a pet sitter!”


“Caroline did a great job checking in on my cat daily as requested. She understood and did exactly what I wanted her to do for my cat and then communicated everything to me. I was reassured that my cat was being cared for very well which meant a lot to me. 🙏🏼 Caroline”


About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember, both large and small. I've been routinely walking a 100 pound great Pyrenees since I was a pre teen, so I know how to handle a large barking dog (and I'm not even bothered by barking any more!). I also have a lot of energy, so I'm happy to play as much as possible with any sort of dog. I'm also currently missing my own two dogs at home, so you can be sure that your dogs would get plenty of love and attention if I'm taking care of them. I'm a college student so my schedule is fairly open, aside from when I have class. I'm also available consistently on the weekends, so it wouldn't be an issue to perform frequent check ins. I'm happy to answer any specific inquiries about my weekly availability as well. I am comfortable using whatever mode of security you want, and will be sure to supervise your pets carefully if we're outside. I'm comfortable giving medicine to animals, as I've had some experience with my own cat (who had diabetes) and other foster kittens who needed eye drops, or medication given through pipettes.

“Clara was great! We hadn’t used this app before and she met with us in person before our trip to help us get comfortable with the process. Took excellent care of our cats and provided pictures for every visit. If you’re on the fence about finding someone I would definitely vouch for Clara. Very happy with the care she provided.”


“Georgia is by far the best pet sitter I have ever had, in my 31 years of being responsible for a pet. When I come home from a trip, it's like I never left my cat, because he's relaxed and feels full of all the love Georgia has given him while I'm away. Before working with Georgia, he would seem upset when I got home, but with Georgia, he feels so cared for. Besides all the love, care, and attention Georgia gives, she's super experienced and knowledgeable about animals and pet care, paying close attention to how my cat is doing. She gives so much to ensure he's okay, and communicates clearly and frequently with reassuring images (that are beautiful) and videos. Georgia is highly professional and goes the extra mile to take care of my cat. Thank you Georgia!!”


“Leah was wonderful and very communicative! I really appreciate her detailed notes and lovely pictures of my cats. I felt super comfortable leaving my cats with her and I am hopeful that we can work together in a the future! 10/10 :) thank you for all you did! :))”


“Sarah is a wonderful cat sitter! I really appreciate her gentle and thoughtful approach to caring for my cat who can be a little skittish around new people. She has taken the time to slowly build a relationship with my cat over multiple visits- giving him space to get used to her, while also trying to engage with him from a respectful distance. Prior to her first visit, she asked thorough questions about my cat's needs and preferences, which was very comforting. I'm looking forward to having her watch my cat more in the future!”


“Rossy was an excellent sitter for my shy kitty. Not only did she keep her food and water topped off and litter clean, but she also put in a lot of effort to interact with my cat who, unfortunately, hid the whole time. It was so nice knowing that my kitty was at least having someone there to spend time with her, even if she was too scared to come out. I would highly recommend Rossy and will definitely book her in the future!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. I own 3 dogs at home as well as working in dog shelters. I also have 2 cats! I’m currently a full time Animal Science student at Cornell University, so working on weekends is the best for me. Typically anytime in the day works for me but afternoon/evening is preferred! I always leash dogs especially when out in public just as a precaution as well as to respect others boundaries. One of my dogs at home is kennel trained so if needed I can put your dog in a kennel!


“First time using Rover and Kaylee and Aaron were fantastic pet sitters. They helped us understand the process, helped us feel comfortable with using the service, and were incredibly responsive! We were so excited to have new pictures each day along with a brief description of their visit. We'll definitely contact them again in the future.”


“Madison took great care of our pup. We needed someone to take Hallie for a walk and spend some time with her at the house during the day. She was careful with our directions and meeting Hallie's specific dietary needs and provided regular updates with photos. We highly recommend Madison!”


“Pedro is the perfect cat sitter. He is friendly, communicative, goes above and beyond in all things. Out notoriously shy, cautious cat and he bonded, so we'll definitely be using Pedro in future during our trips!”


About: My family always had dogs and cats while I was growing up. We also raised pigs for a time. In my junior year of college I adopted a dog from the local shelter and he is still my pride joy. I care for him with all my heart. I have a very flexible schedule, I only work 2 out of every 8 days. Therefore I am happy to work around different needs and schedules. I care for my clients’ pets with love and affection, much the same way I do with mine. I am very respectful of everyone’s home, never tracking in dirt or mud.
