House Sitting in Slaterville Springs

“Daniela was able to watch the pups last minute and I’m so grateful for that! She was great with the dogs and even gave the cats some love. Would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

“Alexandra was wonderful with my dogs! She was especially patient with my younger dog’s playfulness and mindful of my older dogs needs. I’d recommend her to anyone and look forward to having her watch them again!”

“I would give five times more stars to YoungEun, if it were possible. She is the perfect dog/house sitter. She asked all the right questions, sent gorgeous photos of the dogs -- with big smiles on their faces, provided great updates, and kept the house spotless. I especially appreciated how often and how far she walked Roscoe and Midge; they are used to long walks, and that's what they got with YoungEun. She is also a kind, warm person. I'm so happy we found her!”

Gretchen W.

“We came home from a four-day trip to a happy, healthy dog who received Rose's excellent care. She was equally gracious about caring for our house, even our ailing basil plant. And her pet photography gave us the best photos we've had of our dog in a long time. She's also a joy to be around. We would give her ten stars if we could.”

Patricia C.

“Claudia got along great with Skye. The dog was happy and the house in order when we got home. Claudia was on time and sent us updates with pictures. Her care met and exceded our expectations. We look forward to having Claudia back again. Thank you Claudia!”

Suzanne O.

“Sarah was absolutely amazing! Went above and beyond and honestly one of the best sitters I’ve ever had. Hands down. My babies loved her, she kept in contact and sent me photos of them. I couldn’t be happier!!!”

Samantha T.

“Caroline was great with our dog and cat! She was very respectful and clean while staying at our house. She was easy to communicate with and genuinely cared. Would definitely recommend! Thank you, Caroline!”

Nina P.

“Ashley was wonderful with our 16 year old lab. Our dog requires lots of extra care which Ashley didn’t mind at all. We felt comfortable and had peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. Definitely recommend her for your pet.”

“Maxine was a wonderful dog and cat sitter while we were away. She is communicative and took such great care of our pets and our home. Thank you, Maxine!”

About: I have always lived with pets! :) I grew up with dogs Ella and Koikkie when I was little, and loved walking and playing with them. In college I couldn't have a dog, but I did get my first cat, Oliver. He was more or less feral when we found him but with lots of love and food, he became a lap cat with a happy home on a farm. Two years ago I moved to Ithaca, and have two 3-year old Siberian cats, Nadja and Moose. They need a lot of exercise and play which includes taking them out on leashes to walk around the block. I also frequently cat sit for my friends who have a mix of young and old cats. I'm currently working part-time 5 days a week. I am available for weekend pet-sitting and short visits during the week. I work until 3pm on weekdays, and am available at most times on the weekend. I am more than happy to stay in your home with your pet, and would love to give them treats and attention. I love spending time with pets and can send you daily photos at their cutest moments :)

“Kyle was great! He took wonderful care of Mox, making sure he got lots of exercise and attention. I would definitely recommend him as a sitter.”

Liz K.

“Rachel did such a wonderful job caring for our dogs over the weekend. She provided excellent communication and lots of cute photos. She sent maps of all their walks and we returned to a spotless house and happy pups as well as cute photos of their time together. We will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you again!”

Anna S.

“Colleen is a wonderful, caring, and attentive sitter for our fur babies. We are grateful to have found her in the community. Our babies look forward to seeing her again this Summer!”

About: A proud cat mama and dog auntie, I have extensive experience caring for pets in my neighborhood and family. I lead a very active life (run 4-5 days a week, walk daily), and would love your pet’s company! I also work from home, so will be around to give your pet lots of attention. My social work background has given me lots of tools to deal with pets of all personalities and types with compassion. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I also lead a very active life (run 4x a week, walk daily), so will make sure your dog gets lots of exercise. I have a large house and a yard, with lots for a dog to run around. I also have a pet cat, who is extremely friendly and great with other pets.

About: Animal rescue is my true passion in life. I grew up rescuing and caring for animals with my mom, and as an adult, I’ve continued to adopt pets in need from my local shelter. Besides taking care of my own animals, I’ve also looked after friends’ and family members’ pets many times. I really enjoy building trust with animals and watching them feel safe and comfortable with me. I’m experienced in administering medication, understanding animal body language, and creating a calming environment so your pet can relax. I know how hard it can be to leave your animal with someone else, especially if they need special medical care. If you choose to trust me with your pet, I promise to communicate openly, be dependable, and show genuine compassion. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are loved and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home which allows me greater flexibility to be available for your animals. For dog walking and drop in visits, I'm typically available after 3PM on weekdays, or all day on weekends. For house sitting, I can work at your home during my stay to provide full time care. I prefer to care for your pets in their own home, as my rescue cat does not get along with other animals. I'm happy to take on any and all responsibilities for your pets, whether it's in your home or during walks. Your pet's health and safety is my top priority.

About: Hi, I’m Camilla and I’m Dog and cat mom! I love taking long walks or just spending time with your fur babies! Volunteer with ASPCA and Wildlife rehab center. I am an Environmental Biology, nature and animal loving Senior at Cornell, and I’m spending my summer in Ithaca! I love going on walk and spending time with pets, I will work with your schedule! Constant watch on the pet, even if they are well behaved. I love sending and taking photos to give to the owners so they can see how happy their pet is!

About: I am a true animal lover!I have a genuine passion for all animals, and I truly believe they deserve love and respect, especially when their families are away. I currently volunteer at the Ithaca SPCA, where I walk dogs every Sunday. This experience has not only deepened my love for animals but has also taught me the importance of providing each pet with individual attention and care. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I strive to cater to those while ensuring they feel safe and loved. When you choose me as your animal sitter, you can rest assured that I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I will provide them with the same respect, love, and attention they are used to, so they can feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I work from home and am able to take time for daily check ins and have weekend availability as well. Taking care of animals truly brings me so much joy and I am beyond happy to make the time that is necessary to take care of your sweet pets. I currently have no pets living in my home, but have a few feline friends that frequent my apartment. I know that a pet is as important as a family member and holds such a special place in the lives of it's owner. I make sure to provide all necessary attention, love and nurturing to a pet when needed.

With a background in Veterinary Technology and Biology and experience in clinical settings, we prioritize safety, comfort, and individualized attention for every pet. Our combined skills include: Administering medications accurately Providing geriatric and special-needs care Creating stress-free environments through Fear-Free practices Ensuring safety with AED/CPR and First Aid certification Delivering dependable and flexible service tailored to each pet’s needs Every pet is treated as family, and our goal is to provide exceptional care that owners can trust. I am home 90% of the day and will be able to spend all that time making sure that your pet is safe in my care. I have 2 fenced in enclosures so that way if your pup is a foreign body eater we can prevent that. I also have a grass pen too.

About: I grew up in a household full of animals and have been pet sitting for neighbors for as long as I have been old enough. I've had dogs, guinea pigs, a rabbit, chickens and numerous other small creatures who I have loved over the years. My profile picture is of my parent's golden doodle! I am currently a physical therapy student at Ithaca College who is spending the summer here in Ithaca and looking to dog walk/sit or pet sit! I am not planning on doing any boarding of animals because of my household's allergies but I am available for house sitting, drop-in visits and walking!

“Cristian has looked after Charlie twice and it’s been a great experience. Cris is a clear communicator, sends lots of photos, Charlie adores him. Cris has helped us out with a sort of last minute request. Highly recommend and hope to have Cris help us out in the future”
