Doggy Day Care in Tompkins

About: I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and take pride in doing things the right way. I’ve cared for pets and homes for friends and family and understand the importance of trust, safety, and consistency. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply keeping your pet company, I treat every home and animal with respect. I stay attentive, communicate clearly, and make sure everything is handled exactly as requested. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care. I’m available most weekdays after 2pm and have open availability on weekends for boarding or extended stays. I prioritize playtime, walks, and keeping your pet comfortable and on their normal routine. I’m also able to adjust my schedule when needed to accommodate feeding times, medications, or special care requests. I have a 7 acre farm it will be fenced off for them to have a space and also I frequently go to the dog park. I also prefer to walk them to bond with them in a safe way.

About: I treat every pet like family—because they deserve nothing less. With experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, I understand that each pet has unique needs. I’m patient, attentive, and trained in basic obedience techniques, making me especially skilled with energetic pups or pets needing a little extra guidance. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—it doesn’t feel like a task, it feels like time well spent. I structure my days to prioritize the pets in my care, making sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I enjoy creating a routine that makes each pet feel safe and loved. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I stick to each pet’s routine as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medication, or cuddle sessions. I never leave pets unattended for long periods, and I make sure they get both mental and physical stimulation throughout the day. In a client’s home, I respect their space and their pet’s established routine. I follow all instructions carefully, from meal prep to walk routes, and make sure pets get the same love and attention they’re used to. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you always know how your furry friend is doing.

“Joe and Celeste were great with my little guy. Their two adorable pugs were the icing on the cake! My pup had a great time playing with them. And the best part? a front bay window bench seat with a little doggie ramp where they sit and watch squirrels and a spacious fenced-in back yard where they run free. Definitely worth it!”

“We highly recommend Luciana! She and her husband welcomed us with open arms when we arrived, they were so friendly and rowdy immediately felt comfortable. Their backyard is the perfect space for dogs to roam and explore. They even accommodated us with watching him a little bit longer than we expected. We will definitely use them again in the future.😍”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Jacklyn to take care of my dog, Hazel Grace, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jacklyn was incredibly professional, punctual, and caring, making both Hazel Grace and me feel at ease. From the moment we met, it was clear that she had a genuine love for animals. She took the time to understand Hazel’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs. Hazel Grace is usually quite shy around new people, but Jacklyn’s warm and gentle approach quickly won her over. During the time Jacklyn looked after Hazel, she provided regular updates, including photos, which reassured me that everything was going well. It was evident that Jacklyn was not only ensuring Hazel was fed and exercised, but also showering them with affection and attention. I was particularly impressed with Jacklyn’s attention to detail. When I returned, Hazel was happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. Overall, I highly recommend Jacklyn to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Her dedication and love for animals truly shine through in her work. Thank you, Jacklyn for taking such wonderful care of Hazel Grace!”

About: My whole life, I've grown up with cats and dogs (tabby's and pit-bulls to be exact). I have trained 3 puppies (basic commands like sit and stay) and have taken care of one senior dog (18) and a senior cat (17). Very flexible weekdays and weekends. Open to early mornings and late nights. Just communicate your needs and I will do my best to accommodate you. Pets are always cared for in a safe, clean, and supervised environment, whether in my home or yours. I remove hazards, maintain routines, and prioritize comfort, security, and trust. In clients’ homes, I respect all instructions, keep spaces clean, and ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for at all times.
