“Kelly is absolutely fantastic. Our Lab, Gracie, loves spending time with her! Her updates and incredible photos really help to lessen worry while we are away, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy ourselves.”


“Spencer was perfect! He was very attentive and caring. My dog is a 15 year old senior with medical issues and he was super open to giving pet sitting with him a try and cared for him just as well (if not better) than we would've. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely hope to get Spencer again next time we need a trusted sitter.”


“Tara was great!! She was so kind and patient. So thrilled we found her. I was nervous leaving my older dog with someone new, but she put me at ease. I loved her updates too!! Thank you!!”


“Bryan was a great pet sitter. He was very prompt on getting back to me about how my dog was doing while me and my family were out of town. He also sent me plenty of pictures of my puppy. I would definitely recommend him caring for your pet. Thank you again so much. ☺️”


About: Taking care of pets has always been part of my life. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. As for walks, I have to active kids who are always willing to take a walk around. I currently work at the local school just minutes from my home. I come home middle of the day. I am home during the summer and on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and one dog who is a big baby. Dogs are allowed to lay wherever they are comfortable but can also crate if they are used to that.


“We dropped off our puppy for the first time ever when in Ithaca for my boyfriends Cornell reunion. Frankie was so well taken care of! Aaron and Kaylee were so responsive and sent us photos and updates each day. Frankie was exhausted when we picked him up and I’m sure was sad to leave his new friends behind. If we are ever in the area again, we would love to use them again!”

“Adalia did a great job taking care of our boy Loki during a 14 day stay at her place. He came back to us refreshed and relaxed, much better than his usual stay at the kennel. Adalia was easy to communicate with and helped us feel confident on our first use of Rover and Loki's first stay with her!”


“Shanea is amazing! She took care of our 6 month old picky labradoodle so well. She’s like his second family and had an awesome time. I would trust her to take care of your fur babies like they were her own.”


“Cooper had a fantastic time with Amanda, her family, and their dogs! She sent me lots of photos, and he came home happy and content. Thanks, Amanda! We will be booking with you again.”


“Lyndsay and her entire family are Super...they all love animals and treat your pet as their own. Penny was with Lyndsay for 9 nights and she communicated with us every day with a picture and short update. Will definitely use Lyndsay again and highly recommend her and her family to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”


“Megan took excellent care of my dog, Izzy, for a few days while I was out of town. She provided regular updates and photos each day. She stuck to Izzy’s normal routine, which helped to reduce stress and make her feel more comfortable. Megan even gave Izzy a toy that she got to keep, which she still carries with her on walks.”


“Ollie loved hanging out with Jennifer! Every picture she sent, he just looks so happy! Ollie enjoyed having other friends a lovely neighborhood to explore. Thank you, Jennifer, Charlie, and Parker!”



“If you need someone to watch your pup, we highly recommend Jessica and Matthew. We received regular pictures and chat back and forth to let us know how Daisy was doing. She had a great time with her stay. She made some friends and was almost sad to leave them haha. Super friendly and great communication. We will definitely have them watch Daisy again!”



“Angi was wonderful with my 11 month old puppy Ginger who has some separation anxiety. Angi was very calm with her and she was kind enough to email me that Ginger was not barking non-stop while I was away from her. I could tell when I picked up Ginger that she had had a wonderful day at Angi’s. The fenced backyard was great. Angi was just so nice!. Hope to be able to use her services again very soon.”



“Amanda was a godsend for boarding our three dogs while we were away for five days. We were anxious since it was our dogs’ first time being boarded. The pups didn’t exactly make a great first impression—let’s just say they had some settling in missteps in the first 10 minutes that had us cringing. But Amanda was amazing, brushing it off with a smile and total confidence. She knows her stuff, having worked with veterinary’s practice, and made us feel quite comfortable leaving our pups with her. She sent us daily texts and pics, which was a relief. The dogs clearly loved her, and by the time we picked them up, they were chill, happy, and obviously well-fed and exercised. We’re already looking forward to booking Amanda again.”


About: I love dogs they can tell. I have a boxer that enjoy running with and playing engaging games. I don't mind walking and running in winter weather. I enjoy working with dogs that want to get out and run but I'm also enjoying working with dogs who have gained some pounds and need a walk... who hasn't been there!? I think happy dogs are less destructive dogs and less distructive dog means happier owner. My hours and availability maybe changing relatively soon, but I am available every day before 8 and every day after 3 im available for overnight stays or weekend stays. I’m not able to board right now but I will be able to board soon! I look forward to hearing from you!!! -Cassi

“Arianna was so amazing watching Granger for me!!! I was visiting the Fingerlakes with some friends and couldn’t bring Granger on a dinner cruise we wanted to do. Arianna was very sweet and wonderful, answering any questions I had over the phone before the trip, being flexible about drop off time when we were running behind, sending pictures of Granger while we were out, and allowing for a late pick up time after our cruise. She was always quick to respond and Granger was well taken care of! Would definitely recommend and will be messaging her again if I’m ever back in the area!”


About: I know how to spoil animals! Just ask my 2 dogs and my 2 cats! Let me spoil yours, too, with a walk or a belly rub! I am a school teacher off for the summer and can help you with your pets during the day or while your out of town. Let me know what your pets need. I can take them for a walk, play with them, or just give them some love and attention!
