“Suanny took good care of our furry girl and was flexible and responsive with drop off and pick up. Brownie was very happy and calm at pick up. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding routines, administering basic medications, and providing lots of attention and companionship. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and prioritize clear communication with regular updates and photos. I have a fully fenced in backyard (although I can also take your pet for walks as well if preferred!) and am available to give lots of cuddles all day as I work from home full time! I work remote full time and have a fully fenced in back yard so I am able to watch your dog or cat full time. On the weekends I am usually out hiking or with friends, and can take your pet on those adventures as well! I also have a small 30 lb house trained and friendly doggy named Ramsey who is always down to play and/or nap :) I am able to give your pet around the clock care as I work from home, and my dog Ramsey is always ready to make new friends! I do allow pets on the furniture, just not in my bed, and have a fully fenced in yard for playtime, as well as the ability to take your furry friend on walks as well! Please let me know what your needs are, I want their stay to be as comfortable as possible!

“Victoria was easy to book with and took Luka out on a nice long 30 minute walk which I really appreciated. She was always super responsive and I was able to just enjoy our plans and not worry about how Luka was doing. :)”

About: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.

“Erix took care of our dog and our friend’s dog for the day. Both were well cared for. We will definitely seek out Erix the next time we are in town.”

“Deborah came through for me in a pinch when I came to Syracuse from out of state. She sent photos and was quick to respond to messages. Thanks, Deborah!”

“I feel very fortunate to have found Susan to watch George for me on a weekly basis. He always gets so excited as we pull in to her driveway, and can’t wait to get out of the car and get into her house! That’s so reassuring to me. She always communicates very well, sends lots of pictures, and has taken George last minute on several occasions. I highly recommend!”

“Gunner enjoyed his stay and we felt relieved with him in Diana’s care. Very lovely young lady with best interest of pups in mind. Would use her again. She was awesome with last minute request. Thank you!!”

Melissa D.

“Wanda has an awesome time at day camp again!!”

Thomas G.

“Ashley was great! She was on-time and flexible with our schedule. She was available on short notice, which was very helpful! She sent us a video of our pup relaxing and watching a movie on her lap while we were out and about, which made us feel good about his doggie day care experience.”

Jenelle B.

“Luna was right at home with Eden and Cruizey! Even with her fear of wind on a windy day, Luna remained content, restful and playful. Eden has a way with her dogs! Thank you for everything!”

Carol Ann P.

“Our usual sitter Chelsea was unavailable and recommended Marisol. Isla loved her time with Marisol and Benito! This is the first real off leash (fenced in yard) play she's had with a dog closer to her size and she loved it. They really made her feel welcome and taken care of and all that play left her tuckered out. We even got ideas for a couple new toys for her.”

Scott W.

“I’ve brought my dog Shifu to Irina for day care twice now, and she’s been wonderful! She’s very responsive, kind, and clearly cares about the dogs she looks after. Shifu came home happy and relaxed both times. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: For many years, I aided my aunt who owns her own dog grooming salon, keeping the dogs occupied and bathing them! I have also taken care of many friends and family members dogs, even cats! I had two dogs, two Guinea pigs, and recently just adopted a cat! I volunteer weekly at a bunny farm cleaning their cages and spending time with them. I enjoy all animals and being a difference in their lives! I currently have a full time job, typically work week hours, with some overtime so I will need to work around that! Available weekends and late night!! I have a park nearby and am familiar with safe areas for dog walking! I think it is important to listen to the client and will do everything I can to ensure your pets safety and help you feel at ease knowing they are in good hands! Every client is different and I respect each and every boundary.

“Maya and Hunter are amazing with my Milo baby and he loves their Milo! She is amazing with him and he loves being there so much! Highly recommend Maya!”

“Christalle and Brek took great care of Cheerio. They gave her lots of love and play time with their puppy, Sadie. We will definitely be back!”

Janet E.

“Our girl Tofu spent a handful of hours with Michelle and her pup. She came home happy, clean, and smiling! We will absolutely book Michelle again!”

Nicole K.

About: I have a love for dog that goes back as far as I can remember. My dogs are my children. I will treat your pups as if they are my own. I work overnights so the day is usually open. I will be here if your pup needs anything. I also have cameras in the home to monitor when I’m not home. I have a friendly dog. She is free roam and she loves to play. I have a park nearby and have a fenced in yard. Frequent walks and play time expected.

“Brent was great and flexible taking care of my dog on a last minute reservation. Xochi seemed to have a lot of fun and was ready to nap when she got home!”

Jorge C.

“I can't say enough good things about Stacey. She is truly outstanding in every way when it comes to taking care of Scotch. I always have complete peace of mind knowing my Scotch is in such capable and caring hands. Whether I’m away at work or out for the day, I never have to worry—my dog is happy, safe, and well cared for.”
