Personalized care for your dog or cat - Altmar
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Altmar
“Polina recently watched my little dog Lilly. She is amazing. She was super nice and attentive to Lilly. She is super friendly and loves dogs. She will send updates with pictures of how your dog is doing. I will keep using Polina as my new dog sitter.”
“Rachel was easy to communicate with and very flexible when our plans changed. Emma loved being at her home with her dog and kids. I think Emma enjoyed herself just as much as we did on our trip. We would definitely use Rachel’s services again.”
“Huijun and her husband took excellent care of my boys, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept me updated every single day by sending videos and messages, letting me know when they had dinner and when they were settled in for the night. It gave me so much peace of mind to see how comfortable and well cared for they were. In one of the videos, I saw her giving one of my boys cuddles, and he was clearly loving the attention, which meant a lot to me. I had sent them with a full bag of their belongings, and everything was returned exactly as I left it, which I really appreciated. On top of that, my flight ended up being delayed, and they were incredibly understanding and accommodating with the change in timing. Their flexibility and kindness truly stood out. Overall, I was extremely happy with the level of care and attention my boys received. I would absolutely trust them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Carrie and her husband took excellent care of my almost 16 year old pug. I haven’t left her with anyone else in a very long time so was a little nervous, for both her and the sitter. She kept me updated with texts and pictures and was told she was just fine. I’m hoping she can go there again when I need overnight stays.”
“Our dog, Moxie, loved her overnight stay with Donna! She sent lots of pics and video throughout the day so we could see how well she was doing. From the fenced in yard, options for space to hang out solo or with other dogs and the care shown at check in, it’s clear the dogs in her care are loved and so well cared for. We are so happy we found Donna and will definitely be reaching out when we need a sitter again.”
“Lindsey is a great dog sitter! I wasn't able to have my dog Zoe with me for Christmas this year, so she got to spend it with Lindsey and her family. Zoe was right at home there on "the farm" and really enjoyed being part of the family. She made some new friends with the chickens and horses and Lindsey's two dogs who were very friendly with Zoe. I highly recommend Lindsey if you have a dog who likes to be social and likes small children and other animals. Thank you Lindsey for taking such good care of my girl!”
“This is our dogs second visit to Dan and Teresa’s. They are very communicative and accommodating to what our dogs need. Our dogs were very happy and welcomed as if they were a part of the family. We have been extremely satisfied and will continue to drive a little farther to have our dogs be taken care of by Dan and Teresa.”
“Jocelyn ha been amazing! She is very responsive and keeps me informed all the way thru each pet- sitting experience with photos and texts throughout the day. She is so loving with my girl and always takes such good care of her! Highly recommend!!”
“Sue was so wonderful to board with! Unfortunately, due to weather and flight delays, we had to extend our trip a bit on both ends, and Sue was extremely helpful and willing to take our pet for the extra time. We also got daily photo updates, so we knew he was settling in well and well taken care of. She was even willing to do a meet and greet prior to the start of our trip. We would definitely recommend her to others, thank you Sue!”
“Tia is absolutely fantastic! She and her family took such great care of our dog. This is the third time we’ve left her with Tia and have had a great experience every time. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while away. Highly recommend Tia to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care!”
About: I'm an enthusiastic dog walker and sitter that has a passion for dogs and rescuing them. I have been involved in dog rescue and fostering in the Syracuse area for a number of years. I've cared for a number of my own dogs and cats from young to seniors. I've also been a foster parent to a number of dogs when rescues needed someone. I can handle the most challenging of dogs down to little babies and everything in between. Your dog will get plenty of love and attention when I'm around! I give all dogs the same love and affection I would give my own dog and see the importance of cuddle and buddy time along with good exercise. I show confidence when I'm with a dog so that they know there is trust with me from the beginning. I currently work part time, so have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I am always available after 3:00 p.m. during the week, before 8:00 a.m. or anytime on the weekends. I've got a very pet friendly home. I live in a single story, ranch house that has a fully fenced back yard. I do not have children at home that we would need to worry about and I'm very respectful if needed to go into a client's home. Safety and security are always at the forefront.
About: I have owned many dogs over the years plus have over 7 years in the dog rescue business. Having volunteered with Legacy Humane Society based in McKinney, Texas as a foster, mentor, board member, event planner, social media lead and more, I've gained knowledge and learned so much! I am familiar with medications, oral and injectable and comfortable administering if needed. I have fostered pregnant dogs, birthed litters and raised them, fostered 150 lb great danes and a 15 lb chihuahua. Our most recent two pets were a black lab that passed away of old age and currently own a 40 lb mutt. I love dogs and miss fostering since we travel on the road. I have also helped care for my Mom's 90 lb Cane Corso who had to have insulin injections twice per day.
“Wonderful dog sitter. I had absolutely no concern when I dropped off my Labrador, except that she might like him more than me 😊. He was very flexible taking in my dog over Easter weekend with less than a day of notice because I had to be in the hospital for surgery on very short notice. I appreciate what he did and I know my dog enjoyed her stay!”
“Paige did a great job caring for our 2 girls!!! She communicated with us daily, sending great pictures! They returned home very happy!! Thank you Paige! We will be return customers!”

“Sophie treated Rupert to excellent Rover quality service. Rupert was even so excited everyday to ensure he showed his prized possession to her everyday. The service was super understanding of military timing and requirements … hands down use Sophie time and time again.”
“This was our second booking with Heather, and once again she did an excellent job of making friends with the cats she hadn't met before, as well as administering meds to two avoidant charges. It's good to know that when we're away they're in affectionate, diligent, and competent hands.”
“We had a great experience with John. We did a first meet-and-greet at our home so our cat could get to know him, and that made a big difference. During the weekend he stayed at our place, our cat felt comfortable and well cared for. John was very responsive with messages and adapted perfectly to our cat’s routine: she likes to go outside for a couple of minutes to feel the cold and get some fresh air, then come back in for treats. Overall, it was a great decision and we would definitely book with him again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Altmar
“Stephanie is a caring, compassionate person who takes care of our puppies like they are her own! She make sure they are part of the family, they play with her retriever and our dogs are always happy when they arrive and a little sad when they have to leave. Highly recommended! Five stars!”

“DayLin is my choice for a caring, competent and responsible Abbey sitter. My pup Abbey knows her so well and practically jumps out of the car to greet her as we arrive. High recommendations always!”
“Our dogs were well cared for and tired out when we picked them up! Extra attention was given to special dietary instructions for one of them and pick up and drop off was efficient. We were glad to use them again and know they were in good hands!”
“She was awesome! We were in town for the weekend, needed a sitter for Max for Saturday, and she was able to accommodate us. Will definitely go back when we come back to Syracruse! Max had fun and slept like a baby that night lol She was easy to reach by text, responded in an appropriate amount of time, and her property was away from the road, giving us piece of mind. Highly recommend.”
“Susan looked after my dog Gainsley for a week while I was on vacation. I can not say enough good things about how well Susan took care of Gainsley while I was away. My dog is a rescue dog and very hesitant to attach herself with adults that she does not know. Susan understood Gainsley s needs completely. Susan regularly sent me pictures to constantly reassure me that Gainsley was happy. I can not thank her enough.”
About: Having been through a fairly traumatic dog attack myself, I made it my mission to learn all about dog's behavior and why they do what they do. I have studied different ways of training and learning how to react to certain situations with them. I promise to love and give all the fun play time, cuddle time, and attention to your favorite furry friend! Your doggy can sleep in my bed and hang out on the couch. If you are anything like me, your dog is your best friend and child! I had an amazing female Boston Terrier who lived to 13 1/2. I am versed in care of elderly dogs. My new venture is a deaf puppy. We are learning hand signals for training. He is very friendly and loves to make new friends. If you have any questions about what I'm willing to do, or can and can't do, please don't hesitate to ask me! I work for a family business, and can bring my dog to work. Therefore, your pup will be able to come to work with me! I will love your baby as if it was my own. Dogs will always be leashed outside. They are allowed on furniture here and are welcome to snuggle anytime! But if you have different rules , please tell me so I can abide by them.
About: Animals, especially canines, are my entire life. I'm a pack leader at a dog daycare and it's the best! I have a large amount of experience in the animal care field, and also training in dog and cat behavior. Being a pet parent, I understand that you need to have someone trustworthy while you're away, and I am that person. With my own dogs, we enjoy being outside, a lot. Hiking, walking, swimming...we do it all. Exercise is very important to have a happy and healthy pet. I am a very happy-go-lucky person and dedicate my life to the happiness and wellness of animals. I have 13 different critters in my home, and more often that not: more dogs! I would be more than happy to get together and talk! My daily schedule is flexible. I have 12 dogs of my own that require constant care that include potty breaks and play time. Our pack is only alone for about 4-5 hours a day. All of our dogs (personal, boarding or foster) are generally integrated with the pack. We try to accommodate all dog personalities. If they don't do well in the big pack, we tend to crate and rotate smaller play groups. Wake up is anywhere from 5:30-8:30 am and last potty is around 9-9:30 pm. Feedings are 2-3 times a day that happen in either a crate, pen, or separate area to prevent any issues. Water is always available inside and outside the house. We also have so many toys, like drowning in toys. Our home is structured, but in a chaotic way.
About: I have had dogs since I was a child and love them all. I treat them like they are my children. They are loved to the moon and back.

About: I’ve cared for a multitude of dogs and cats and other critters including my own families, and family friends since I was 10 :)) I would LOVE to watch over other fury friends and offer your pets relaxation and comfort while you do the same!

About: *Please read through and understand my policies before booking - your pets well-being is what is most important to me! I have taken care of various pets since I was a kid. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, and bearded dragons! I have always been the family/friend go-to for help with animals whether it is walking dogs, house-sitting, ect. I am a huge animal advocate and a Humane Policy Leader Volunteer with the ASPCA. Throughout high school and college, I looked for opportunities to help animals at an individual level (doing some rescue work, rehab work, fundraising, ect.), and it has greatly improved my knowledge about providing care for animals of various needs. I take the health and safety of animals very seriously, and will treat yours as my own. If you book a 24 hour+ period with me as your pet’s only caregiver, I require a minimum of 3 visits daily and will not allow your dog to be alone for more than 12 hours. With cats and other small animals there is flexibility with the amount of drop-ins. I also typically only do last minute bookings for clients I’ve worked with previously because they know my standards and I know their pet’s needs - this helps ensure that the client is comfortable with my care, the pet is comfortable with my care, and I am comfortable providing my services. I am available everyday for pet care and at various times. All scheduling details can be discussed further at a meet and greet to ensure you feel comfortable with the care your pet will be receiving :) I have special experience with diabetic animals, deaf animals, and animals with health/behavior needs. So that I am able to best take care of your pet, please let me know if there is anything I should know about your pet so that I can be prepared to give them the proper care. I would also ask that a meet and greet is set up prior to future visits so that we can ensure your pets comfortability with me while you are away! I will ensure during visits to send pictures of your pet to you and provide a summary of the visit to put your mind at ease, and of course text me on Rover at any point with any concerns or needs. As a fellow animal parent, I understand we experience some separation anxiety from our pets!
“Heather was a god send! We were visiting the area and were unexpectedly kept away from home for 12 hours! I was panicked. Heather went over, took great care of them and gave me a great deal of comfort. Her communication and effort was top notch!”

I will be available from 4-8 during weekdays and any time during the weekend. I work in a school, so once it is summer vacation I will have open availability. I have to dogs of my own. One Riley we adopted during covid. He was born blind. You would never know it though, as he gets around amazing! Another dog named Gus is a rescue! He is such a lover! I look forward to meeting your 4-legged family member(s)! I am a Kindergarten teacher, so in the summers I have more availability. During the school year os harder but I can do my best to accommodate. I have a fenced in yard, however we have an inground pool. No pet will ever be left outside alone. I can also work with your dog to be sure they sre comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16. It started with watching my neighbors dogs! I have lots of experience with older dogs and puppies! I’m currently finishing out my Masters Therapy Program so have online classes, allowing me to be flexible and giving dogs attention whenever needed. Being home for the summer gives me the opportunity to give dogs the full attention and 1:1 time they need. I have such a passion for taking care of dogs that I will always put them first. I take care of dogs by giving them a nice long walk, playing with their dog toys with them, fetch, etc. I think physical activity is so important for dogs.

“Rachel was easy to communicate with and very flexible when our plans changed. Emma loved being at her home with her dog and kids. I think Emma enjoyed herself just as much as we did on our trip. We would definitely use Rachel’s services again.”
“Huijun and her husband took excellent care of my boys, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept me updated every single day by sending videos and messages, letting me know when they had dinner and when they were settled in for the night. It gave me so much peace of mind to see how comfortable and well cared for they were. In one of the videos, I saw her giving one of my boys cuddles, and he was clearly loving the attention, which meant a lot to me. I had sent them with a full bag of their belongings, and everything was returned exactly as I left it, which I really appreciated. On top of that, my flight ended up being delayed, and they were incredibly understanding and accommodating with the change in timing. Their flexibility and kindness truly stood out. Overall, I was extremely happy with the level of care and attention my boys received. I would absolutely trust them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Lindsey is a great dog sitter! I wasn't able to have my dog Zoe with me for Christmas this year, so she got to spend it with Lindsey and her family. Zoe was right at home there on "the farm" and really enjoyed being part of the family. She made some new friends with the chickens and horses and Lindsey's two dogs who were very friendly with Zoe. I highly recommend Lindsey if you have a dog who likes to be social and likes small children and other animals. Thank you Lindsey for taking such good care of my girl!”
“This is our dogs second visit to Dan and Teresa’s. They are very communicative and accommodating to what our dogs need. Our dogs were very happy and welcomed as if they were a part of the family. We have been extremely satisfied and will continue to drive a little farther to have our dogs be taken care of by Dan and Teresa.”
About: I have owned many dogs over the years plus have over 7 years in the dog rescue business. Having volunteered with Legacy Humane Society based in McKinney, Texas as a foster, mentor, board member, event planner, social media lead and more, I've gained knowledge and learned so much! I am familiar with medications, oral and injectable and comfortable administering if needed. I have fostered pregnant dogs, birthed litters and raised them, fostered 150 lb great danes and a 15 lb chihuahua. Our most recent two pets were a black lab that passed away of old age and currently own a 40 lb mutt. I love dogs and miss fostering since we travel on the road. I have also helped care for my Mom's 90 lb Cane Corso who had to have insulin injections twice per day.
“Wonderful dog sitter. I had absolutely no concern when I dropped off my Labrador, except that she might like him more than me 😊. He was very flexible taking in my dog over Easter weekend with less than a day of notice because I had to be in the hospital for surgery on very short notice. I appreciate what he did and I know my dog enjoyed her stay!”
“Ashley was great with our dog, Oreo! She was super flexible when we weren't able to come back to town as early as we wanted and sent us updates with pictures. She was also very active with our pup -taking him for walks and to the park. I will definitely go to Ashley the next time we need a sitter!”
“Sarah was wonderful! We received update photos every day and our pup came home clearly well cared for and happy after over a week of being away. We were worried about our small dog being around her larger ones, but she arranged a meet and greet prior to taking King Tut. Her dogs were sweet and gentle with him. During the week we got photos of all three happily cuddled together. Would recommend Sarah S. and would definitely return should we need a dog-sitter!”
About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)
“Wonderful overnight stay for our 3 pups! Molly and Nikola were attentive and responsive, and their two pups got along great with ours! Highly recommend them for pet sitting.”
“Andrew and his wife took excellent care of our dog over the weekend. It was his first time staying with them, so they sent me several updates and photos to let me know how he was doing. When we picked him up, they sent me home with a handwritten note, dog treats, and a new chew toy. A very thoughtful finishing touch!”
“Ashley and Matt were amazing sitters for our pup! We couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Ashley kept in touch and sent pictures all day which we really appreciated. Our pup was loved while we were gone and had so much fun playing all week. They also gave her a bath before coming home which was so nice. They go above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable leaving your dog and it made our trip so much more enjoyable knowing we had one less thing to worry about. We couldn’t recommend them more! Thank you Ashley and Matt!!!”
“Elizabeth is great! She is super caring with our needy dachshund. She is also kind enough to keep him separate from the bigger dogs. We’ve sent our Alex to her for a couple of family vacations, and for sure we will again! Thank you!”
“I have no words to express my gratitude towards Daylin, she took such good care of Enoch. When leaving Enoch I was afraid it would be a problem because she has a dog at home & my dog is not friendly wiyh other dogs but to my surprise they became great friends. I picked him up he jumped at me of joy but I noticed he also jumped at her which I took as a sign of love from him towards her as well. I have no complaints, if you are looking for the best dog sitter then look no more... she truly is the best!”
“Tana and Michael took great care of Phoebe for her weekend stay. Phoebe really enjoyed all of her cuddles and attention as well as having a doggie pal while there. We know Phoebe will always be in good hands with them!”
About: I have had dogs since I was a child and love them all. I treat them like they are my children. They are loved to the moon and back. I am almost retired so I have all kinds of time to take care of your baby. I love to let them run in the fenced in yard. I have a fenced in back yard. We also have a gate on our front porch for them to just longe around and people watch.
