“Great communication and care! We were so lucky that Claudia was able to watch our cats and dog while we went out of the country. They took to her from the start. Definitely gave us peace of mind.”
“Mary was fantastic! She took the time to come meet our dogs before staying with them while we went out of town on vacation and we felt so comfortable meeting her and seeing her interact with the dogs. She definitely gives them her full care and attention! Mary was very respectful and kept us up-to-date on how everybody was doing and frequently checked in to see if there was anything more she could do for them. I’m so glad we booked with Mary and we will definitely use her again in the future! We cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Chris took good care of Coco, following our directions and’s her routine. He also left the house in good order. Coco was well and happy when we returned. What more could we ask for?!”

About: I'm an experienced pet Mom, who currently has three fur babies of her own, and would love to be able to take care of your babies when you're not available to!

I have had at least one dog of my own continuously since 1995, and I have extensive experience with many different sizes and breeds of dogs, as well as cats, small animals and reptiles. I also have extensive experience caring for ill and injured animals, as my Great Dane had many health issues, and I also cared for her post-op after two surgeries and a resulting infection.

About: I've loved and cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. I now work remotely, so I can be quite flexible in terms of care and stays. While I live in Homer, NY, I currently work remotely.

While I do not currently have pets of my own, I lived as both a kid and adult with both dogs and cats. I'll keep them safe and shower them with love!

Monique J.
“Monique is WONDERFUL! I actually met her at her job, Petland. I was shopping for a new collar and some toys for my boxer mix and I was going on about how I was trying to find someone to watch him for the weekend while I went away on business, and she mentioned that she actually did dog sitting and would love to do it. The next day I met with her and my little Billy got to see her house and meet her dogs, everyone immediately hit it off amd it was set! She sent me LOADS of pictures and videos of Billy having fun with her and her dogs, even ahowing me that she took him to the pool. It really helped reassure me, especially since this is the first time spending the weekend away from him. She really is the greatest and her love for dogs is evident.”

Cindy V.
“Cindy is FANTASTIC with animals! She has cat sit for me before and my cats love her! I’ve also seen her love and caringness for dogs as well and you can find nobody better!”
Aaron F.
“Aaron is one of the most kind, gentle souls I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for over 22 years, and I can confidently say there are few in this world I trust more than him. Every animal I’ve ever seen him with, including my own dog, is both safe and loved in his presence. I never let anyone other than my mother watch my dog, but if I needed to, I’d hand her to him without a second thought. He’s trustworthy and dependable in ways most could never achieve. I couldn’t possibly recommend him more to care for anyone’s pets. He is a diamond in the rough, and your pets will always be in great hands.”

Marisa C.
“We can't say enough about how wonderful Marisa is! It was abundantly clear she genuinely loves animals. She provided regular updates with adorable photos, making sure our two girls were getting plenty of exercise, cuddles, and attention, along with our outdoor flock. She has even been a major asset to our outdoor landscaping , providing pruning for our fruit trees, and maintenance of our extensive vegetable and native gardens. Her plant knowledge is out of this world. We came home to two happy and relaxed dogs and a completely clean house! We absolutely recommend her highly to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
