About: Hello! I am a responsible and caring pet owner based in East Syracuse with lots of love to share. My only child has has flown south away from winter for college. So I am finding myself with extra time and loads of affection to share. Whether it's caring for your dogs or cats, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. From feeding and playtime to walks and cuddles; I’ll ensure they feel safe, loved and cared for while you're away. Feel free to reach out to discuss your pet care needs or if you’d like any additional information. Thank you for your consideration, Kristi V. I do work full time but have some flexibly with my schedule. I work at SU and live in East Syracuse. I'm free on the weekends and evenings. Safety and wellness for all animals is a priority to me. I'll make certain your pets are cared for and showered with affection. I know what's is like to worry when you're away from your fur baby.
“Adriana took fabulous care of my senior cat! She's flexible, professional, and a great commicator -- and my girl loved her. Would definitely book her services again!”
“Juliette was amazing again for both of our dogs while we were working/ away. We trust her as she takes great care of them and great care of our house! Would definitely recommend Juliette to anyone!”
“Meghanne is wonderful! She provides excellent care for my Great Pyrenees and I never have to worry about her while I’m away. She was also great about giving her her allergy meds. It’s so good to find someone who is so dependable and provides so much love to my pup when I’m not here.”
“Kilie did an amazing job with our babies while we were away. We had some special circumstances and she did great with everything! She was able to give them their meds and one of our shy boys came out and played which is huge! She gave our eldest lap cuddles. She was in tune with each cat and their needs. She gave us great summaries of each visit with pictures and we could tell they were well cared for when we got home. We will definitely book Kilie again!”
“Absolutely amazing, completely beyond my expectations. Extremely professional meeting and working out key logistics. Very caring and attentive with my cat. Did an excellent job of caring for him and giving him a few minutes of active play/learning time each day that I was away. Took lots of pictures each day of him playing and learning tricks which really improved my days. 100% would recommend to anyone.”
“Morgan was AMAZING!!! She watched my two bunnies while I went on vacation and I think they like her more than me. I have never seen my bunnies more happy! Morgan was the first person (not a family member) who watched them and I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Hannah was excellent! From the first meet and greet through the two drop-ins. I appreciated her prompt communication and follow-up. We will be looking to book her in the future!”
“Crystal was awesome! Helio is very shy and she was only able to see him when she came to get the key. So instead of play pictures Crystal took pictures of his food for us. I'm hoping after a few trips he will be curious enough to come out when he hears her. In time I'm sure they will be buddies ?”
“Alyssa swooped in and saved the day when an unanticipated emergency landed me in the hospital. The stress of who would look in on my beloved dog while I was gone was more stressful than my own well being. Alyssa stepped right up, made time immediately for a quick introduction which left me completely relaxed, knowing that my Pep would be in good hands during my absence. Absolutely recommend. 5 Star”
About: I’ve taken care of animals as long as I can remember. I worked as a kennel attendant for a year and a half. As a kennel attendant I had newborn puppies to adult aged dogs in my care. I’m currently working part time, so I do still have plenty of time available. I attend Le Moyne College, spring break is coming up soon. I have a large home with 1 small extremely friendly dog. I don’t have a fence quite yet but I will shortly. I have experience with multiple dog trainers on how to properly leash walk and crate a dog.
About: **NO DOGS OVER 20 LBS. FOR IN MY HOME CARE. Sorry for any inconvenience ** I have always had a passion for animals. I have over 13 years experience providing care to dogs and small pets, plus I’ve worked as a zookeeper and a kennel technician caring for puppies. I can provide all basic care plus bathing and oral/topical medications. I also specialize in caring for dogs with anxiety and senior care. I also care for small pets (birds, reptiles, rodents, etc). I will be adding a $5/day charge for each dog that requires care/cleaning above & beyond that of a typical stay. Dogs that urinate frequently in my home will incur a $50 cleaning fee to cover time, supplies, and/or professional services I work full time Monday through Friday, but I always make plenty of time for cuddles, playtime, and walks! I also have an older teen (17)who assist with care (she also dog sits). I do not work weekends or holidays. I currently have 3 small pups ranging in age from 4-11 years old. They are all crate trained and crates are utilized while I am at work for their safety. We use tie outs for potty and outdoor play, while also providing dozens of toys for indoor playtime. My pups are fed on a schedule and fresh water is always provided. In your home I would follow your rules and routines in order to keep your pup safe and healthy.
About: I have a huge soft spot for all animals, I treat my own like she’s my daughter. I want nothing but the best for all pets I work remotely 4/5 weekdays, 5/5 if needed. So I’d likely be available to provide company and attention to any pets for most of the day. I take great care of my own pets and others, some might say I spoil my pets. No matter the environment I will love on your pets
About: Ive taken care of dogs for most of my childhood as well as my adult life so far. I am also an ABC certified dog trainer that has gone through the necessary steps to understand the behaviors that are fundamental to dogs and how to ensure that they have the best chance possible for success. I currently work part time at a dog shelter and take care of dogs on a daily basis. I work an Tue/Thu/Fri/Sun until 4pm. Other than that I am usually available any other day until 2pm but I can be flexible if given proper notice. To make your headline short, descriptive, and genuine, focus on clarity over cleverness.

Kristen was great! I am always so stressed leaving my dogs. She was able to accommodate me on short notice, and sent me photos of my dogs playing and on their walk. She was very communicative and made sure to follow my care plan. Highly recommend! Will book with her again.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Syracuse stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Syracuse choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in North Syracuse with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
