Pet Sitting Syracuse

About: We live on an acreage. Plenty of space to run, play or chill! We have 2 very sweet dogs that we spoil every day. Every dog has its own personality and we love figuring out what we think they are saying and at times we give them voices/accents/languages. Would a poodle say “hey dude what’s up”. They may here. 😆 Dogs are woven into every part of our day. We keep them with us or they have a fenced yard and decks to nap on. We have 2 very sweet dogs and very spoiled. Our dogs come when they’re called or they hear the magic word. We don’t crate/kennel our dogs but will yours if you prefer, especially puppies not potty trained.

About: Taking care of animals was the first responsibility my siblings and I were raised on. I have had all different species and breeds of pets since before I can remember and I have been a huge animal lover my whole life. I live on a farm with several large animals and always happy cats and dogs around the house. I am an animal science major at KSU working towards a career dealing with behavioral studies for companion animals. I work in a dog daycare and boarding facility and have volunteered training foster dogs for adoption. I love every shape and size of critter!:) I do have a full time position with a flexible mid day break to travel in Otoe county, available for morning, evening and night check-in’s throughout the week. Available all day on weekends! I am willing to follow any directions given to help make your fur baby as comfortable as possible while under my care! I strive to make a connection with every animal I work with!

“Liz was great!! My fur kids just loved her. She even took time to come over before the scheduled date to meet my kids and learn their routine. She was so good with them and sent the best pictures!!”

About: Ive owned one or more dogs since I was a kid. Ive participated in a variety of dog training from classes at PetSmart to Nebraska Dog Training. Working from home, there will be limited times pets will be left unsupervised while in my care. I am Working from home full time which makes me available for frequent potty breaks. This also allows for several opportunities for social interaction throughout the day. I have 5 acres of land. Not fenced available, but outside time on a leash can be offered to ensure safety. I have two dogs to provide company. An 8 yr old female and 9 month male puppy.

“We love Celeste! She is very sweet and great with the animals, and is very thorough with her care! I know I can trust her whenever I'm away on vacation!”

“Wr needed a dog/house sitter for a last minute trip. I didn't want just anyone, either. Ibqas so worried our dogs were just going to be let out 3-4 times a day, and not get any play time. That was not the case when I got on here and found Ashlee. She was simply amazing! She sent me pictures of our dogs multiple times a day, was always checking in with me. Our dogs usually have separation anxiety and they seemed to do just fine with her! She walked our dogs multiple times, spoiled the with treats, played with them outside for a while! We were very blessed to have found Ashlee. We liked her so much we booked her again when we went to a concert, and we have her potentially booked for our vacation in February! She is a fantastic dog/house sitter. Thanks again, Ashlee! ?”

About: I grew up in diverse household of both cats and dogs. Although I am a proud cat mom of 6 year old and 1 year old. I love dogs too! I know it can be nerve wracking to leave your beloved pet with a stranger. Since I am at place where I can’t have any more pets I move all of my extra love into yours! I am currently working full time Monday thru Friday. I also work 9-5:30. I am looking to earn some extra money throughout the week. Something before and after my shift. I currently live in an apartment but my place is spacious enough to have multiple scratching posts, litter boxes, water fountains, and cat toys. They don’t even pay rent and they have more stuff than I do 😂.

About: Hello, my name is Lila! I am a 21 year old who has been surrounded by animals my whole life! I’ve been trusted for over 5 years to pet sit for friends and neighbors pets and I’ve cared for many different species including but not limited to dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians and more! If you’re looking for someone that will treat your pets as if they’re her own then I’m your gal! :) Im available to watch your pets on week days and can provide pet care for weekends with atleast a weeks notice. I have plenty of time for drop in visits or planned extended visits! Contact me with any questions or concerns and I’ll happily work something out. I do NOT provide care for your pet in my house but will stop by your home as many times as needed to provide fresh water, food and a clean environment, administering medication and of course provide play time! I will always make sure your pets are safe in your home before leaving.

About: I’ve been around large and small animals alike my entire life. I grew up on a farm where I cared for (and showed)horses, sheep, dogs, cats, a turtle, guinea pigs, and even (had) gerbils. I was active in 4H, FFA, county and state fairs where I showed my prize Appaloosa horse. During my college years I worked at a locally owned pet store in Kearney, Nebraska, which gave me even more hands on experience especially with a variety of small animals like snakes, birds and rabbits. I’ve always had a dog in my life (and cats) until recently when my Mastiff of 14 years passed away. My Mastiff was a rescue with extensive behavioral issues at first; however, after a year and a half of steady, consistent daily work and training, I am proud to say he passed the temperament test, did a complete 180, and I began taking him into nursing homes, where he was absolutely adored. So in short, I’ve worked with some challenging pet personalities but it makes it all worthwhile knowing I improved that animals life and can take the skills I’ve obtained and pay it forward. I also have extensive experience taking care of senior dogs and am quite familiar with the extra care they require whether that be assisting them up or down stairs, making sure there is plenty or traction where they’re walking, taking extra stops to rest on walks, and overall recognizing when they’re in pain or or not acting like themselves and adjusting any activities accordingly, and ensuring the owner is aware of any changes in personality, eating, drinking and/or potty breaks. Hello! I work part time remotely, so my schedule is very flexible which leaves me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and anything else your furry friend(s) need while you’re away! I have 2 cats currently so I would prefer to do any daycare at the client’s home, plus, I feel it’s less stressful on the animal if they’re in their own environment. However, in a pinch, I could certainly arrange to do boarding in my home as I have a large fenced in backyard and my cats could easily be placed in another area of my home. I also have a large (Great Dane size) crate from my beloved dog who passed recently, if a crate would be necessary. Whatever it takes to make your furbaby happy and as comfortable as can be, I’ll make sure it happens! When I am at your home, I’ll make it so that you don’t even know I was there aside from a tired pet(s). Trust and integrity is crucial when letting a stranger not only care for your animals but be in the home, and I firmly believe im establishing that trust by respecting your home and your rules. I live in the south Lincoln area, I drive and own my own vehicle, so can be anywhere in the Lincoln area within about 20-30 minutes. Also, if there was an emergency of any kind I would be able to transport your pet to your closest Veterinarian or wherever need be to ensure his/her wellbeing.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little! I grew up with 4 dogs of my own. I’m also a dog groomer, so I have knowledge on all sorts of dogs and their behaviors. I work full time as a dog groomer Tuesday- Saturday until 3 on average. I can stop by to see your pups in the afternoon and all day Sunday and Monday I provide pet care in the client’s home, making sure pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for in their familiar environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, maintain a clean space, and give each pet plenty of attention, care, and supervision.

About: I have always had dogs. I have trained dogs for years, including hunting dogs. I have helped others with their animals throughout the years as well. I also take care of a farm and their animals from time to time just north of Omaha she would be a reference. I work remotely, so I’m home all the time unless I need to run a quick errand. There is direct access into my apartment, so no need to go through hallways. I will treat them like they’re my own and we walked every day. I have a park here. I also live right next to Lake Zirinsky so taking a walk at the park is easy.
