“Kaylah was AMAZING!!! Very sweet person, her and Maximus hit it off right as soon as she walken in the door. She walk him everyday as sheduled and even walked him longer than planned. after every walk she sent us pictures of their walk. She feed and watered him after every walk. We will definitely be reaching out to book her again!!! Thanks Kaylah!!”

“Adriana was an incredible help with our nervous dog who can be a bit ~weird~ with strangers; she had our boy snuggling on the couch with her in just one weekend. She gives great updates and calmed every worry we had this weekend.”

About: Hi! My name is Sam and I have taken care of both domestic and exotic animals my whole life. It is one of my passions. My schedule is flexible since I work night shifts and am available during the day time hours and can easily swing by and check in on your pet! I have no problems coming to your home as long as you leave instructions on care for your furbaby. I’d love to take them on walks, play, provide pet hygiene, and of course meal time!
About: **Im sorry but I will not accept a next day booking if I have never met your dog previously, it's for safety's sake!** I've taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was a little kid. All the dogs growing up were considered "my dogs" by everyone else in the house. I currently have two well behaved dogs, a husky who enthusiastically learned to do basic tricks and a special needs staffie that is a certified couch potato. If your baby has a medication regimen, I can make sure it gets followed. We can be as lazy or active as your baby needs me to be. I also have extensive experience with cats and some experience with ball pythons. My human kids are adults now, so I spend most of my waking time doting over my fur babies; I could consider yours a part of my pack if you'd like! If your dog is an adventurer we can walk for hours. I have two very friendly dogs and two...lets just call them tolerant...cats. I love just watching them go, so I am very engaged with the babies all day long. I'm good at following instructions and I can crate your pet as I come and go if you wish.
“Pam is very friendly impersonal. I’ve been using her regularly now for many weeks and she always fulfills her commitments and lets me know ahead of time of any changes in her schedule. She also tends to be somewhat flexible and communicates very well.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for them. While I’ve primarily worked with horses and cows, I’ve also spent years around dogs and cats. We have our own rescue pup at home, and I’ve helped care for everything from small lap dogs to German Shepherds. There’s always been a family or friends dog around, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I treat every animal like they’re my own. Rover is my full time job, so we can work together to fit your pet into my day! Whether it’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evenings, we can work out a perfect time to meet you and your pets needs! When I’m caring for pets in their home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow any instructions you leave closely - whether it’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or giving medications. I respect your home, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure your pets get lots of love and attention while you’re away. I know how important it is to feel confident your pets and your space are in good hands!
About: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.
“Staci has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is super responsive, flexible and simply terrific to work with. Our Jeda gets along very well with her children who are lovely and I recommend her without hesitation. We are fortunate to have met her.”

“Alyssa was so great with my little one. She kept me updated throughout the week, was very responsive and took care of him when he did not feel well. She even got him a toy for his birthday. I would highly recommend her!”

About: Hi there! I'm Macenzie, and I'm excited to offer loving and professional care for your pets. I’ve always had a deep passion for animals, and over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether it’s a playful puppy in need of training or a senior dog requiring extra attention, I’m here to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. What sets me apart from other sitters is my commitment to understanding each pet’s unique needs. I have a background in puppy training, senior pet care, and disabled pet care, which allows me to offer tailored care. I’m patient, dependable, and enjoy providing enrichment activities that keep pets mentally and physically stimulated. I also specialize in handling special needs pets, ensuring they receive the extra care they deserve. Whether it's a short stay or long-term care, your pet will be treated like family. Let’s connect and see how I can make your pet’s day brighter! Although I work full-time, I’m available during evenings and most weekends! During weekdays when bookings overlap with my work schedule, I do ask that pets are comfortable going about 8 hours between potty breaks. Since my apartment doesn’t allow pets, I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I believe that a familiar environment helps pets feel safe and relaxed, and I focus on maintaining their routine as much as possible. I prioritize safety, trust, and ensuring your pet feels secure while you're away. Whether it's feeding, playing, or administering medications, I provide personalized care that meets your pet's specific needs. I’m also diligent about keeping your home tidy and respecting your space. You can trust that your pet will be in great hands with me, receiving lots of attention and care in a safe, familiar environment.
About: I know how hard it can be to find reliable and trustworthy pet care. I will always be intentional with the care I provide and will never hesitate to go above and beyond as I would want for my pets. I work Monday through Wednesday from 9 am to 5 pm. I am fully available all other days and am happy to stay at your house on the days I go to work as well. I have a large fenced in yard that is empty minus a secured shed. We also have a mostly empty dining room for extra space and we allow all pets on all furniture.
About: I have experience working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and care needs both in a professional setting and as a pet owner! At my previous doggy daycare job, I walked, fed, administered medication to, and boarded with dogs. I also have cared for cats for 3 years and have some experience caring for birds (and absolutely love them! particularly cockatiels and conures) I currently am a full time student and have 2 days off during the work week thanks to online classes, so more time to care for pets! I live in a large apartment with no personal pets. Dogs would be crated when I’m in class (only a few hours a day, less than 6 usually) and free to roam when I’m home, with at least 2 relief walks a day. I have one female roommate who is also experienced in caring for dogs, but I will be the only one responsible for the dog’s care. Care at a client’s home would all depend on their personal preferences! I am comfortable sleeping over for any type of pet.
“Kristin was great. I needed someone to walk my dog a few times on a sunday evening. She was able to meet me and Oakley before, and check out my apartment so there were no issue the day of. She provided pictures and updates, along with beginning and ending walk times. It helped keep me at ease, and I highly recommend her!”

About: I have pet sat for neighbors and family friends for years and for long periods of time. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and fish. I also have experience working with reptiles and snakes as an intern for an environment education center. I took care of a box turtle, corn snake, and painted turtle. I am in college full time but am willing to watch or stop by when I am not currently taking a class. I am a junior at SUNY ESF. And have a relatively light schedule that would allow me to dedicate hours to your pet if needed. As I live in an apartment I do not have any pets nor can I board pets. However, I have my own car so I can travel to take care of pets. If you wish to have overnight care I can stay on a couch or blow up mattress by your pet for safe company.
