“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 While we were away in Cooperstown watching our boys play baseball, Rover made sure our pup was having just as much fun as we were! We received tons of photo updates—she always looked so happy, playing with the other dogs in a beautiful, spacious setting. It was clear she was well cared for and loved every minute. Knowing she was safe and enjoying herself gave us complete peace of mind. Highly recommend!”


“Jason was the perfect choice! Affordable, sweet, and fantastic with my Tunni! He was the only sitter who accepted my last minute Easter weekend booking and was so flexible when I requested pickup/drop-off changes. He's very personable and professional, and Tunni took to him and his pups (especially sweet Sunny) right away! It was a great play date for her and I'll absolutely hire him again in the future! He's worth the 45 minute drive! Thanks so much, Jason! :)”


“Morghan was wonderful with our elderly dog. Super responsive and communicated well throughout the time she was boarding her. Took great care of her and clearly loves all types of animals. Highly recommend her!”


“Lorinda was so sweet and great with Flora. She sent plenty of pictures and her home seemed like a fun place with lots of space for the dogs to run around. If I'm back upstate for family stuff I'd love to have Flora stay with her again!”


“Whitney and Kevin were wonderful! They were great communicators and sent multiple picture updates throughout my dogs stay with them. It was clear that they took great care of him and he looked so happy in all of the photos they sent. I will absolutely use them again in the future!”


“Gilbert was fantastic with Chance. I received at least daily pictures and updates on how Chance was doing. Gilbert also dropped in to take care of my cat while we were away and did a wonderful job with him too. I appreciate everything Gilbert did and would not hesitate to hire him again. He is the BEST! Thank you Gilbert…. Until next time! 😁😁”


“Brittany was very responsive from the beginning. She took great care of Maple, sent some pictures while we were gone and gave Maple lots of attention so we could spend the day in Cooperstown with our kids. Thanks Brittany!”


“Francine was excellent with our two beagles. This was my first time with a dog sitter, and my wife and I were quite nervous, however were reassured very quickly. My wife and I are paid emt’s and have unpredictable work schedules. Francine is flexible, understanding and treated our pups like her own. She updates you throughout the day, and took my hyperactive two pups on long walks that are much needed. Thank you for not only being a sitter, but a friend to my two pups. I highly recommend francine to anyone, because she is the best!! After coming home after 12 hours at her house my two are snuggled in bed fast asleep. Way to go francine!”


“Jenny is super easy to communicate with and flexible! She’s very friendly and I felt my dog was very safe with her. We actually needed to cancel our booking so Daisy only spent a few hours with her but she had already sent us a photo! I will definitely be booking with Jenny in the future.”


“Nicole was a lifesaver! After getting over booked at a kennel during Cooperstown Baseball season, she came to my rescue. Great communication, flexible, easy to work with, updated me with pictures and she even trimmed my puppy nails. Highly recommend her.”



“Being only 2 months post adoption. I was really worried about how her first overnight stay (4 nights!) would go. The meet and greet went well before the stay and it’s clear that Stacy and her family are prepared and knowledgeable in caring for furkids. The stay went well and I’m really appreciative for having high quality, dedicated care in the area.”


“Steve did a great job with Tot. He sent photos and videos of her while he was watching her, which made me smile. Would definitely recommend him to watch and care for your fur babies.”


About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from cats & dogs to fluffy chinchillas! I have special experience working with powerful breeds, including retired and aspiring K9s, as well as senior & special needs pets. My home comes equipped with accessiblity tools like pet stairs & ramps suitable for even larger dogs. Our quarter acre is unfenced, but we do have a small enclosed area off the porch & several long leads to enjoy more of the grassy lawn. Safety is paramount. I’m comfortable giving medication, following specialized diets, & assisting with mobility issues. I’m an experienced pet parent who just said goodbye to my 17 year old rescue pitbull; I’d like to open my now-too-quiet home to your beloved family members. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ friendly ❤️ I’m a professional writer who works exclusively from home. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to any specific needs, take all the potty breaks, and ensure both enriching play & restorative snuggles. And treats, of course! I have a fenced potty area off my porch for easy quick breaks, and several long leads for exploring the unfenced portions of the property. My senior dog recently passed away but she left soft beds in every room, jars of treats, and a big basket of toys I know she’d love to share.

“Kylie was an amazing dog sitter for my dog Hershey. She was punctual at pick up and drop off and gave me updates about my dog’s stay with her. She was very accommodating and took great care of my dog during my time away. Would highly recommend her.”
