About: Hi! I'm Colleen and I love animals! I currently have a 1 year old puppy named Sammy, who we adopted from the Humane Society when he was a few weeks old. We just lost our 17 and 16 year old dogs Tommy and Marta and we miss them terribly. I've owned a doberman names Zeus, a jack russel/pug Tommy Lee, a chihuahua/dauschund named Marta, and Sammy who is a chihuahua/pug/boston terrier/dauschund. I'd love to stop in an check on/or let out your pets, or stop by for walks:) I have wide open availability, day and night! I am a stay at home mom with two kids in school. Looking to make some extra money. I am a stay at home mom so your animals would not be alone at all! I love all animals! Happy to help and love on yours while you're away!
“Kate is wonderful! She not only took excellent care of our pets, she also kept my garden watered! She kept us updated with pictures, and checked in when she had questions or felt we should know something.”
“Vincent was amazing with my two pitties - he kept me updated throughout the day with photos and notes on how they were doing. I get a little anxious leaving them overnight, but he was great to work with and put my mind at ease. My dogs can be a little leash reactive and one of them gets a shot every other day on top of a few other medications, but he was able to handle all of that no problem. I definitely recommend him and will be booking with him in the future!”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Many different kinds, including dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, etc. I will treat your pet with love and kindness. I have a job where I make my own schedule. If you decide to board your pet with me, I will be on premises at all times. For boarding, I have a decent size fenced in back yard. I do have a 7 year old husky that has gone to daycare. He's been around a lot of different dogs. If your dog needs to be crated, I can do that as well. I am available to come feed your animal in your home. I can let them out and walk them if needed.
About: We have a beautiful country home that we love offering to area residents looking for a warm, quiet and relaxing haven for you to have your adult dog or puppy stay while you are away. Our home is on 20 acres and includes a 3/4 acre pond, fields and woods to explore. We are even in the process of creating walking trails through the wooded areas of the property! After growing up with horses and training/showing for 50 years, and have always had a variety of dogs on the farm, I've recently transitioned to the world of dog showing. I am thoroughly enjoying this phase of life. I have created a boutique style of dog boarding, and will only be taking on a couple of dogs at a time, to provide the utmost attention to detail and one on one care of your precious family member(s). I have fostered several dogs in the past that have come from horrific conditions, so I'm comfortable with working with scared, traumatized or “difficult” dogs. I am adept at administering medications, subcutaneous or IM injections and providing whatever feeding style your dogs currently enjoy. I personally raw feed my own dog, and always welcome other raw feeders. I do insist, for your dogs safety as well as my home, that your dogs be comfortable with crating. They will only ever be in a crate if we are not in the home, however to not unduly stress your dog, they do need to be familiar with and accepting of a crate. I have several styles and sizes in my home, so crates and appropriate bedding will be provided. We do work outside of the home however we’re never gone for more than four hours at a time. I am home every weekday at lunch for play/walkies with my own dog as well as those in my care. My property is an unfenced 20 acres with plenty of enrichment areas for your dogs stay. Your dog will be leashed on the property at all times as we explore the pond, fields and abundance of wildlife that make their appearance. I am able to accommodate your current feeding schedule, and prefer to use your provided dog food so as to eliminate upset tummies, though can provide a quality kibble for an additional cost per day should it be necessary.
About: I have owned cats for as long as I can remember. I truly believe without a pet, your home is not complete. My love for my own two cats is everything. I have two boys. An all white young cat and an almost three year old tuxedo cat. Animals are my life! My love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’m currently working full time so my availability for dogs is limited during the week. My hours I am available M-F would be before or after 8:30am-4:30pm. Weekends are available frequently any time as long as we book ahead. I would love to work with you. Feel free to message me to make arrangements (: I have a small fenced yard but with access to safe streets if leashed walks are asked for! Unfortunately my cats are hesitant with accepting other dogs in their home but am willing to watch them in yours if overnights are necessary.
“Tess was a wonderful sitter for my elderly pup. He is quite on in years, and she was patient with him and his special needs, for that I am thankful. Her training and experience with elderly dogs put my mind at ease while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her as a great dog sitter.”
“Leighanne was wonderful. Mother Nature came pouring down the day we left and when she arrived my basement was muddy and flooded. This is Troopers comfort zone. She made her comfortable in the kitchen and gave her a new toy since her toys in basement was ruined and even helped with the basement. To go above and beyond is an understatement. Trooper was happy and content when we arrived home and I greatly appreciated her communication with me, her willingness to help, and her commitment to Trooper to keep her happy while we were away. Looking forward to using her again in the near future”

I have 2 cats and a dog currently but have bad guinea pigs and reptiles in the past. I have grown up with dogs and cats and know how to care for them very well. Working at a pet store and vet office in the past has given me the proper knowledge to care for dogs and cats in the best way possible. I am a hard worker and have an eye for detail! Caring for animals is my passion, and I love to meet new animals everyday! I’m currently working full time but am off on weekends. I am available after 3:30 on Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday. I am able to do late afternoon or evening walks/drop in visits during the week. I am unable to have pets come to my house but am always available to house sit or stop by to give walks of let your pet outside for a potty break or exercise.

About: I offer complete pet-sitting services for a diverse range of animals, including dogs (experience with reactive dogs), chickens, guinea pigs, and other farm animals. I provide personalized care, ensuring each pet's specific needs are met, from tailored exercise and feeding routines to specialized attention for reactive dogs. My goal is to create a comfortable and secure environment where your animals thrive while you're away, giving you peace of mind. I work 3rd shift 11pm- 7:30am most nights. I can board animals in my home during these hours but they will be confined to crates or rooms inside. On my days off (2-3 per week) I can make more accommodations I can take care of your pets as directed by you, with several years of personal training, and experience handling nervous and reactive dogs. I have a spare room they can stay in that’s separate from other pets if need be.
About: I've had experience with an assortment of animals for a large part of my life. I volunteered an animal shelter in Scottsville, NY for about two years walking dogs of every size and taking care of cats. I have also housed two large German Shepherds and three Dachshunds, both of which are very demanding breeds. I currently reside in Owego, NY, and I work part-time in Endicott, NY Monday through Wednesday from 8AM to 5PM. I may provide brief surfaces on evenings these days, such as a walk or stop-in. Any other day is fair game. Per the restrictions of my apartment complex, I won't be able to care for or bring pets in my home. However, I would be sure to respect any client's home I may enter.
“First time using rover and messaged with a couple people before booking Charity. Wasn’t sure I’d like using this for my pup after speaking with other sitters but Charity was fantastic! Pretty sure my pup was disappointed when I walked in the door after my trip instead of her. Very responsive, accommodating, and professional. Won’t use anyone else but her. She could easily be charging double what she is and it would be worth it.”
