Natalie was great with our dogs while we were out of town. She even came back in the late evening to let them out one more time before we got home since she knew we’d be late. We would definitely have her back anytime. Thank you so much Natalie!

Kelsey has been providing care and home sitting for our furry ones for almost 3 years. Our dog and cats love to see her when she comes. She truly cares for them and is a great communicator with us. An added bonus is that our home looks better than when we leave.

Katherine took great care of Bella and our home! She was prompt and thoughtful. We got regular updates from her and we really appreciated the communication. We will definitely ask her to watch Bella again in the future.

Kevan was really great with our boy Ruckus, who can sometimes be a handful! Kevon was very communicative and kept us updated on everything. He was also able to sit for us last minute and responded quickly to our request. We've already booked him again for an upcoming trip. It's great to know our fur baby is in good hands!

About: I worked for a veterinarian throughout high school, undergrad and grad school. Had cats of my own (not currently). Have watched friends dogs over the years. I'm a hiker, so I walk often. I have the summers off. Able to watch/walk/visit your pets most weekends throughout the year. I can walk/play with your dog as early as 4 pm during the week I have a 20 x 20 fenced in patio with pea gravel and acres of green space in my development. There is a high school across the street and I often hike in Webster parks.

Christine took great care of our two dogs and our home for a full week. We received updates daily with pictures of the dogs enjoying their time with Christine and came home to the house in fantastic shape. We hope to have Christine again when we’re out of time next!

Paulina was a lifesaver for us and was able to accommodate a very short request period and provided excellent care. She continually reached out to us with pictures and videos of our puppy and let us know how the day was going. She had very appropriate questions regarding his care and completed all of our requests without issue. We're very lucky to have found her and appreciate the work she does!

Carla was very sweet to our pups and is a very sweet person in general. She came and left just when she said she would and sent us updates and was very responsive when we messaged and checked in. One of our pups had an accident in their bed and she washed and dried their blankets! Our home was left like she was never even here. We’d happily book with Carla again! Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies Carla!

I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★

Sarah took great care of my dog and gave her exercise every day. I liked receiving photos while I was away to see my dog looked happy. I was able to enjoy being away knowing my house and dog were in good hands. I'll definitely re-book with Sarah in the future.

About: Since I was a young kid I've had many pets in my life. Mainly dogs and cats, of all sizes, many large dogs though! I love going for walks or playing outside, or playing inside with smaller animals. If you need someone to watch, hang out with, walk, play with, or to let out or feed your pets I'd love to help I babysit from 11:30am to 3:30pm from Tuesday through Friday. So, if we can work around that scedule I'd be happy to help you out! I treat them with respect and love. Love to play and get to know them. Pick up after them inside and outside. And watch for signs of strange behaviors and keep them safe.

Highly recommend Luis for your best friend, especially house sitting. Your pet won’t feel alone because Luis is present, nit just there to fill the water bowl and walk, that is his approach. You’ll get updates and pictures, you’ll never have to ask how they are doing, Luis keeps you informed.

About: I have owned Dogs all my life. I believe that immediate recall is the most important tool for all Dog owners. I also believe in challenging Dogs brains with games like find it hide and seek. A tired Dog at the end of each day is a happy Dog. I exercise my Dog every day. I have a Doberman she is the start and end to my Day. With high energy Dogs they need lots of body and mind stimulation to maintain a healthy Dog . I treat each Dog as if they were my own. Well trained well exercised and most importantly immediate recall. If your Dog doesn’t have immediate recall when I meet them. They will the first time I watch them. To me that is the most significant training tool for every Dog owners including myself.

Williamson, NY, 14589

About: I attended animal science school for a year, where I learned about different dog breeds, grooming, behavior, and training techniques. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and needs, and I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any routines or special care instructions to make sure your dog gets the best care possible. I work weekdays from 8 AM–4 PM, so pet care fits best into my mornings, evenings, nights, and weekends. My schedule is very flexible though! I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, overnight care, and lots of attention before and after work, and I always make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and any special care needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship so they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I also keep the home tidy, respect the space, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pet is in good hands.

Working with Natania for looking after our dogs and cats has been really smooth. We have four senior animals, each with a particular wrinkle to caring for them, and Natania was super open to their needs. She obviously cares deeply for animals and is a very conscientious caretaker. We are very confident working with her again!

Edward did a great job for us. He and our dog Buddy got along famously, and he was especially diligent about keeping us informed about Buddy’s time with him. Edward stayed with Buddy for five days and kept us up-to-date throughout. Additionally, the house was left in perfect condition. We will certainly use Edward for our next trip away.

Alexis stayed at our house for a week and cared for our cats, dog, and rabbit. She did a great job. The animals were happy and well rested when we got home and the house was in great condition. She was very communicative and sent pictures of how everyone was doing while we were gone. It gave us great peace of mind knowing everyone was so well cared for. Thank you!
