Dog Walking in North Valley, Syracuse, NY

“Our life had some major shifts, which meant my sweet, old puppers would be home for long hours and it broke my heart. Lou from Rover to the rescue!! I'd like to lovingly title him "Lifesaver Lou" for good reason. You can count on him to REALLY love on your animals, be reliable, trustworthy and responsible. I only had to go over routine/instruction one time at the beginning and it has been perfection since. Lou has been walking our fur baby, Achilles, twice a week and I know he looks forward to seeing Lou <3 Love the pictures and the reports I get during Achilles' walk, too! Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking a huge guilty burden off this very busy single mom!”

“Jamie has been stellar w/ my challenging pitbull! I've noticed a positive change in his overall temperament since she became part of his care team. She is easy to work with and schedule. Definitely recommend.”

“Karlie is super patient with our somewhat socialy anxious beagle mix, Rosie. Even when Rosie is not up for a walk, Karlie spends time playing and pampering our beloved pet. We are thrilled with the top notch service that Karlie provides! Great job and we highly recommend!”

“I Highly recommend Laura’s services for your pet sitting needs. She’s just so good to my Violet . Laura has in some scene become part of the family that’s how much trust I have in Laura’s abilities to take care of Violet I’ve been more than pleased every time shes looked after my girl.”

“Monica was excellent with Kozey!! In fact I think she looking for her to come back right now!!”

“Anthony was absolutely amazing with Oliver and Oliver loves him. You could see right when you meet him how caring he is with your fur baby. I left Oliver for moee than a week and had no worries whatsoever. I strongly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for their pets to be in good hands.”

“I would never hesitate to leave our dog Cassidy home with Damon when traveling. He is incredibly responsible as a dog walker and is always on schedule with feeding. Dogs have always loved him and been drawn to him and I believe that is a true testimonial to his character. I have no doubt that he will treat your pet with the same kindness that he has always shown his own.”

“Laysha did an amazing job taking care of my golden doodle! GoldenDoodles can be hard work with their grooming needs. She took care of mine for a week and her hair stayed perfect! She helped with not only taking care of her but also with her hair brushing and that goes a long way. I highly recommend her! She is respectful and professional. She will take care of your fur baby! Will definitely have her care for my baby again!”

About: I work as a vet assistant for Stack Vet Hospital and have been there for 1.5 years now. I’ve also been watching animals for the past 6 years and have experience with all sorts of animals! I work full time but am always available before and after my shift as well as during my lunches if needed. I am available all day on weekends as well. I do my best to give every pet the same care my own pets would get. I love to provide one on one attention to each animal while I’m there as well. I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water each visit, have the chance to go outside or get walked, litter boxes are scooped and etc… depending on the pets needs.

“Theresa did a great job taking care of Henry! She was extremely easy to communicate with and kept me updated after her visits and included a lot of photos :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of family pets for many years, but have started caring for others animals over the last 5 years. I often care for neighbors’ pets during vacations that typically go 10+ days. I’ll make an effort to fit your family’s needs, so just let me know what you’re looking for! I currently have a very open schedule, as long as proper notice is given. I am available all days of the week, and am open to working any time of day. My family has personally always had many pets, whether that be dogs, cats, or reptiles. Through experience I’ve learned proper safety measures depending on which pet needs care. Clear communication and expectations from both pet owners and myself make for a good experience where your pet’s specific needs are met.

“Justin is incredible with animals and such a gentle soul. I know him as a neighbor who has watched my 3 shih tzus before and they absolutely love him — even my persnickety rescue! He is entirely flexible and eager to complete any additional requests I ask of him. Wonderful, understanding, and patient with all animals, I would (and do!) recommend him to everybody!”

“Isaiah has been one of my closest friends for many years, and I have seen firsthand his love for all animals. He always makes sure that his cats and dogs are well taken care of and happy, and he has treated my animals the same!”

“Amber was professional, friendly, and diligent. I would recommend her to anyone using Rover!”

About: I have helped my aunt foster dogs for over two years, so I have experience with animals at every stage of rescue, age, ability, size, and breed. I attend college full time and working on being certified as a first responder so I am fairly busy when not living on amazing animals! Any service I provide will be done to the utmost of my ability. Entrusting me with a member of your family I do not take lightly.

“Janelle has been a dog lover her entire life starting with Chester, the yellow lab who was rescued and brought into Janelle's life when she was a year old. As Janelle got older she was inseparable with Chester and loved dogs so she convinced her parents to get a second dog. At only 6 years old and as she had been so responsible with Chester her parents allowed her to get Ella, a Shih Tzu puppy, who slept next to her pillow every night. A year later Janelle felt Ella needed a companion closer to her size, so Brewster, a jet black Shih Tzu became the third dog. For the next 6 years Janelle would play a big part in taking care of the dogs. Sadly Chester passed away but 2 years later, Mason a full size Golden Doodle was brought into the family as a puppy and Janelle was very involved in training Mason to be the amazing dog he is today. Janelle has been a highly responsible person in a facets of life and a true lover of dogs.”

About: Howdy, I’m Zoë, a senior finishing my final semester at Syracuse University. Between my siblings and me, I grew up with almost every pet imaginable, including dogs, cats, fish, rats, chameleons, and an axolotl. My friends call my house “the zoo,” especially when we had 2 dogs and 3 cats at once. Currently, my family has one Doberman and two cats, but they’re all back home in Kentucky. I currently have class on the SU campus from 3:30-4:45 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but otherwise my schedule is very flexible. I have a large Jeep with a dog seat cover, and my back windows roll down in case transportation is needed. My rule is that I always leave spaces cleaner than I found them. Although I cannot accommodate pets due to my shared living situation, I am more than happy to provide for your pets, either in your home or at one of the many parks near my house.

“Kayla is a wonderful dog walker for our puppy. She is extremely sweet and loving towards dogs. She is a great communicator and always sent pics of the pup during her stay. We will definitely continue to use her services (our puppy loves her too)!”

“Margaret is great with my two beagles. Although they can be loud, anxious, and sometimes demanding— she treats them with kindness and a calm demeanor. She communicates arrival and departure times clearly and sends plenty of photos of the outings with them. Highly recommend.”

“Victoria is an exceptional pet care giver who consistently goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of our fur babies. Her attentive nature and dedication make her the go-to person whenever I need someone reliable to look after my pets. I trust her completely with my animals, knowing they are in capable hands. She creates a warm and nurturing environment for them, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provides.”
