“Lee provided an outstanding service and took great care of my 3 furry family members, and our house, while we were in vacation. She stayed as much as needed to take care of them properly, very kind.”


“Logan was so good with our pets. He was there to take care of our dogs. We had someone else to take care of our cats since they don’t need a lot of attention. He even took care of them too. He sent pictures every day and all our animals seemed to love him. We will definitely be using him again as long as he is still available.”


“Gabby took care of our 14 year old chihuahua, Bella, in our home for a week while we were on vacation. She did an amazing job- great communication, very reliable and Bella loved her. Highly recommend!”


“Dana watched our three little monsters again for a week. We knew they were in good hands! She was communicative, checked in on a regular basis, and took great care of them all. Will definitely book again!”


“Excellent sitter. Very loving towards the dogs. Stayed an extra night after our flight was delayed. Couldn't have asked for better communication. Provides ease of mind while you are away from your pets.”


About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)

About: I have over 10 plus years caring for animals. I have experience with small or medium dogs and especially cats. Administering medications, walking, feeding, playtime and everything in between! Experience pet sitting for friends and family and experience caring for a movement impaired dog and diabetic cat. Im currently a Mechanic/Welder as a full time job Monday through Friday for a local company in Jamesville. Available anytime on weekends and limited availability on weekdays after 3:30 PM. I treat everyone’s pets and home as I would my own. Drug free, non smoker and very respectful. The safety of your property and pets is my top priority. Developing trusting relationships with clients and delivering the service you expect is my goal.

“Hayley took fantastic care of our home and 3 dogs for 12 days and the dogs clearly loved her based on all the pictures we got and she was very communicative and sent pictures everyday. Would highly recommend!”


“Our dog, Oso, loved James. He got the best walks and lots of attention while we were away. We'd definitely recommend James!”


About: I’ve had pets my entire life! Being a dog owner a few times in the past has given me a lot of experience with providing the best care. It’s all about patience, being able to read their own needs, and knowing what toys and treats work best! I also have pets with special needs at home so I am skilled in administering medications orally, topically, and via subcutaneous injections. I’m clean, polite, professional, and respect boundaries of both my 2 and 4-legged clients. I have a pretty flexible schedule because I am self-employed. Generally I run my own business on weekends and every other Tuesday through the summer and fall. Weekdays and evenings are fairly wide open to spend time with furry friends. I am used to following a routine in my own home for my pets which includes timed feedings, regular medications, and cleaning of litter boxes. I also have someone in my home to take over my schedule if I were to take on a pet sitting job. In a client’s home I can easily adapt to their pet’s routine and maintain a calm presence so there is minimal stress.

“Talitha completely exceeded my expectations. She is responsive, caring and treated our pets like her own. Even my very slow to warm up rescue pup loved her. Rates are very restorable as well especially since she lives 30-35 minutes away. 10 stars are deserved 🙂”


About: I’ve cared for a multitude of dogs and cats and other critters including my own families, and family friends since I was 10 :)) I would LOVE to watch over other fury friends and offer your pets relaxation and comfort while you do the same! I currently work part time at a local mini mart, and part time from home as a writer, i keep a tight schedule with work and that includes pet care priorities I have a safe, decently spacious, private and comforting apartment in a duplex home with acres of land surrounding the properties, so the pets boarding here have lots of room to play, and relax :))

About: I have 3 rescue dogs at my house and in the last 18 years have had 9 dogs in the last 20 years. I have volunteered and raised money for local rescues and am an avid walker. I love walking and I love dogs. It’s always nice arriving back home with a nice happy and tired dog ready to relax and take a nap. I have a large fenced in yard and my dogs go for at least 3 walks a day for exercise, no matter what the weather is.

About: ive been taken care of animals since i was young. I offer to care for the pets so the adults can have a night out. animals of all ages, puppies-kittens to elderly animals. i love watching each pet grow and have fun. i learn a lot from them as they do from me. and depending on weather ill travel with them to a local park to walk or run around without them running off. i am currently in the military one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer but it never stopped me from my passion of helping out when i get the chance to. holidays i can work with. a certain holiday is very special to me.

“Fiza was absolutely amazing. I was away for 8 nights and she stayed at my house and cared for my 2 labs. She was great. She checked in with me with updates and pix of my dogs a few times which was very nice. They had a blast with her. My house was perfect when I got home. 100% would have her stay again and would recommend.”


About: As a volunteer with a local dog rescue, I have cared for, helped train and loved on dogs of all sizes, ages, needs and personalities! Being commited to these pups has taught me more about dogs and life than ever imaginable, and I cherish every connection made with both the animals and people along the way. Family and friends who have trusted me with caring for their animals can guarantee your pets will be spoiled just like my pittie girl, Addy! My schedule tends to be sporadic, but is quite open through the winter season! I understand the need for scheduling around your plans and the needs of your pets. I prefer to keep dogs on leash at all times while outside unless otherwise specified, and a safe enclosed environment is present. I'm happy to spend time in your pet's favorite places with them! I will follow any instructions given by owners to guarantee the safety and comfort of you and your animals. I currently have a hybrid work schedule and am sometimes working in Rochester or Buffalo. With enough notice, I can usually be wherever I'm needed I always want what is best for the animals, and will do whatever I can to make sure owners are happy and comfortable with the care being provided!

“Nealy did great from our meet and greet all the way until she left this morning. She was super nice, very flexible, and did great with communication. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up loving pets of all kinds. My dad is a retired dogsled racer and I've been around lots of dogs since I was 7 years old. Being introduced to dogs like that so young made me fascinated with them so I am overflowing wealth of knowledge when it comes to canines. I have 4 pets of my own so pet care is an integral part of my everyday routine. Feeding, walking, making sure they have water, pets, cuddles, and tons of affection! My own pets are my children. I don't have kids myself so I pour that love into them. I understand, like children, everyone is different with what rules and expectations they have for their pets. I will respect owners choices for their pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. Today I have a happy 11 year old Pomeranian mix. I grew up with black labs. I love to play fetch and hike with dogs whenever I can. I have a nice, safe yard for play time. I also live near a great dog park. I have taken care of dogs of all ages and make sure I understand their energy level and needs. I currently work from home and have flexible hours all week. I will have work meetings for a few hours a day. Looking forward to helping with your pup! I live in a home in a safe neighborhood, in Wappingers. Walking distance to parks. I am a responsible and will make sure your dog feels safe on our walks.

Patrick S.
“Pat is a kind and responsible person who you can trust to take excellent care of your “best friend “. Pat recently lost the rescue dog who was his companion for the last 13 years. While not ready to replace Buddy yet, he misses having a dog in the house and would be happy to care for yours while you’re away. Pat has watched dogs many times over the years for family members and neighbors who needed his help. He will play with, walk, and keep your dog company. I’m sure your dog will love staying with Pat.”

Gabriella was great! I came home to two very happy pups. She was very communicative throughout her stay. She was respectful of my home, on time and it's obvious she took great care of the dogs. Definable would love to use her again.

Bianca is so great and gentle with our dogs. She’s really in tune with their two different sets of needs. She keeps me updated constantly and helps me worry a little less about our elderly girl. She can get the elderly dog to take her pills and eat her food which is nothing short of amazing!

Hayley took fantastic care of our home and 3 dogs for 12 days and the dogs clearly loved her based on all the pictures we got and she was very communicative and sent pictures everyday. Would highly recommend!

Nealy did great from our meet and greet all the way until she left this morning. She was super nice, very flexible, and did great with communication. Highly recommend!
Hailey was great with our dogs. She was attentive to our boys needs, and contacted us when there was need. She was quick to respond to any request and our concern. I felt very comfortable having her stay in our home. It was all in all a great experience working with Hailey and I would have no qualms hiring her again!
