Pet Boarding in Syracuse

“Deborah was wonderful with our dog and he appeared happy while he was with her and when we brought him home. We highly recommend Deboarah and we will definitely have her watch our dog in the future.”

“Ashley is a fantastic sitter! She was very accommodating with scheduling and routines. She sent us many videos and photos of our dogs and they looked like they were having a blast staying with her. Her dogs are also very playful and it was clear our dogs got along really well. 10/10, highly recommend!”

“Joan and both her son and daughter took SUCH good care of Duke while with them! Duke has a few “difficult “ qualities like not being friendly to other dogs and sometimes barking at people. They treated him like their own and I cannot thank them enough. This was his first time with them and I would absolutely rebook.”

About: Since I was born I was surrounded by dogs. I moved to the Syracuse and my dogs stayed home so I have a lot of attention to give Half of the week I work from home so I can be with the dog. We’ll have lots of play time. The dog will not miss you. Just kidding! But I will me give my heart out. I know how it is to trust someone else with your fur baby, so I’ll do everything I can to make everyone feel safe. I live in an apartment. We’ll go for walks in downtown or a park. Every recommendation taken (food, medicine , toys , etc) just let me know

“Our dog Moose was really happy and had a great stay for 3 days. Kristin was in touch the whole time and made everything smooth and easy for pick-up and drop-off. Excellent experience. Highly Recommended!”

“I was nervous using Rover for boarding and worried about leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know. Kelly was awesome! Her house is set up perfectly for dogs and my lab did fine. She has plenty of shade and doggie pools in the yard. She sent photos and was flexible with drop off and pick up times.”

About: I'm a self-employed writer, editor and newsletter author. I grew up with dogs, have owned several dogs, and have cared for other people's dogs since my beagle, Bailey, crossed the Rainbow Bridge in 2021. I missed her so much I started offering dog/house sitting services. Dogs are such great company and I know how important it is to have peace of mind about their care when you’re away. I take pride in personal, hands-on pet care. I have the ability to work from home most days, so I will have plenty of time to walk, play and snuggle with your dog. If I'm staying in your home and pet/house sitting, I bring my computer and work with me, so I will be with your dog as much as possible. I prefer to host/care for dogs that are crate trained and come with a crate. I have a partially fenced yard. I expect that I will walk your dog several times a day and only take your dog in our yard on a leash or lead and with supervision. At your home, I will maintain your dog's schedule and routines.

About: Me and my girlfriend have 3 dogs together and have been around dogs our entire lives ,she also has been working with dogs for several years, she is currently working at helping hounds so we often are introducing our dogs to other dogs. I am currently out of work due to health reasons but will be returning shortly but mine and my girlfriends schedules are quite different so someone is able to check in once in a while, unless it’s a weekend then I will be home with them the entire day most likely and she will be home with them on Tuesday and Wednesdays on her days off We have a fenced in yard with lots of toys and dog beds for the dogs to play and relax, we also have inside cameras and an outside camera to watch the dogs, or incase we miss something and that way we can look back and see what happened. We have boarded for several people that my girlfriend met from helping hounds and from other jobs and always love the dogs as our own and take them on adventures with permission.

“Ashley and Matthew were excellent! I felt very comfortable boarding my dog with them over a long weekend. My dog had a great experience and came home very happy and tuckered out from all the play and attention. Great communication and lots of pictures.”

About: I’ve been a dog parent for over 5 years and understand how important it is to meet each dog where they’re at, whether that means slow walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. I’m a collegiate runner who’s happy to go at any pace your dog prefers, and I’m always attentive to their mood and needs. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, and shy dogs, and I pride myself on being gentle, patient, and detail-oriented with every pup I meet. I run in the mornings, but outside of that I’m flexible and available day or night to care for your dog. Whether it’s a midday walk, an evening check-in, or overnight care, I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. I treat every dog with the same level of care and attention I give my own. Whether I’m in your home or they’re with me, I keep the environment calm, clean, and tailored to their needs, always respecting their space, routines, and personalities. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, leash safety, and how they respond to new surroundings. My goal is to make your pup feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away.

“I can't express how grateful I am to have found Ria and her little family through Rover! From the very beginning, she was professional, friendly, and clearly experienced with dogs. While I was away, she provided regular updates and photos, and it was clear that Lily was having a great time, and getting lots of exercise, love, and attention. Her three dogs are extremely well-behaved and welcomed Lily into their pack for the weekend! The entire experience was fantastic, from the initial meet-and-greet to the end of the stay. Ria went above and beyond, leaving a detailed report of Lily's activities and behavior. I highly recommend Ria to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Five stars!”

Kate G.

“Our pups Daisy & Duke always enjoy their stay! He does a great job taking care of them while we’re away, giving us peace of mind. Thank you, Brent!”
