“Polina is a nice intelligent person. I highly recommend her. I left my puppy for 9 nights and Polina kept in touch all the time about how my puppy is and what my puppy is doing. She really takes good care of my puppy, by walking him every 3 hours and feeding him as I asked her to. When I came to pick the puppy up, I found that the puppy was very happy, vitally joyful, and very active.”
“Huijun was communicative and thoughtful in caring for my pup! I felt comfortable knowing she was well taken care of! She was also willing to care of my pup on short notice, which I was very appreciative of.”
“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!!”
“Rachel has been amazing with my pup Ellie! I can tell Ellie enjoyed herself and Rachael was always sending pics and videos. We will be using her again to watch Ellie in the future!”
“Susan always takes great care of my dog. I am confident that she is in great hands whenever I leave her with Sue and really appreciate the updates during Gemma’s time with her.”
“Donna took such wonderful care of my dog, Zoey! She sent me pictures and videos daily which helped me not to miss her as much. Normally when I pick Zoey up after being away she literally crawls up my legs to get to me, but this time she was excited to see me but I could tell she loved being at Donna’s so much that she was going to miss it!”
“Georgianne was a wonderful sitter for my anxious lil pup! She sent photos regularly of Sadie Mae playing with her pup Penny and just lounging around. I will be using her again! :)”
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.
“Lisa and Jon took care of my dog for a full week and they were excellent. Great communication, and regular updates with pictures, and our dogs seemed to get along great. We had no issues and I’ll definitely be coming back to Lisa and Jon the next time I have to leave town :)”
“Molly and Nikola were wonderful! We haven’t left our fur baby Josie with anyone in over 5 years and we’re very nervous but Molly and Nikola kept us up to date often and took Josie on fun adventures. When we picked her up nearly a week later she didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!!”
“Yakelin has been a super lovely and caring dog sitter for my fur baby, Tonton. She and her family all shared a lot of love and care for my dog. We appreciate their attention to my dog’s medical conditions, and frequent updates with videos and pictures. The love and warmth we received from her and family is highly appreciated!”
“Mary was the perfect match for our elderly dog: she is patient and caring. Mary has her home and yard set up for every dog's optimal comfort, which we especially appreciated since our dog has arthritis. Ella, our 15 year-old papillon, loved her!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Meghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.”
“Tia and her family were great! Our dog Pepper has a lot of anxiety, but she settled in very well at Tia’s house. They were really great about helping her get accustomed to the environment and all the new people and animals and also keeping us updated about how she was doing throughout her stay. Excellent experience and will definitely book again!”
“Tana was great with our older golden retriever, I would highly recommend to anyone. Was responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates; we could tell he was well cared for and got lots of love!!!!”

“Chan took great care of our two cats the past few days! She was very responsible, dependable, and reliable; and interacted with us very professionally. We would absolutely use her again. Our cats were very well taken care of and were very content when we returned home.”
“Erica goes out of her way to forge a rapport with my skiddish scaredy cat! She was able to check in on her in a pinch when my flight got delayed. I’m a repeat client and already have Erica booked again for more check ins!”
“She was so great with my 2 kitties! One was super bashful the first couple days and she really went out of her way to find him and help him warm up to her. I also really appreciated how she constantly checked in and asked questions instead of just making assumptions!”
“Pam did an amazing job with my 3 kitties. She sent pictures with all of the updates, and was even able to win over the shy guy of the bunch. Will continue to book in the future.”
“Jenny is such a kind, caring sitter. I reached out with short notice asking her to drop in on my three cats - one she had watched before, but two are new additions to the family since the last trip. Jenny brought a few surprises for the kitties and went above and beyond to get to know the new guys and make sure everyone got love and attention. I hate leaving my boys alone when I have to leave, but knowing Jenny is taking care of them truly puts my mind at ease.”
“The absolute best! We had zero worries while my husband and I were on vacation. Amanda took care of our Mikleo like he was one of her own. She will be our go to for Mikleo!”
“Maria was incredible to work with. I was nervous to leave my best friend in the care of anyone besides me but my nerves were quickly relieved. Maria took the time to have a meet and greet so he knew her beforehand and also was extremely professional, asking lots of relevant questions to make sure she knew exactly what to do. Frequent photo updates kept me from wondering about him on my vacation. 100% would recommend Maria and I will be using her again”
“This was the first time we used Nora and she was awesome. My dogs immediately took to her. She kept them busy doing all the things they love, which includes exploring outdoors and playing hard. We will definitely use Nora again.”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Lory and I am a stay at home mom and I also have 3 fur babies myself. Two peekapoo’s and one cat. I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 30 years and have experience with intervertebral disc disease, expressing bladder’s, administering medications orally, physical therapy and CPR.

“We absolutely loved having Kirsten here with our cats. She was professional and caring. Even our shy cat came out to play and get attention. We would definitely recommend Kirsten and have her back again to care for our cats Midge & Poppy.”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for my own two cats—now 8 and 7 years old—I’ve developed a deep understanding of feline behavior, comfort, and communication. Professionally, I’ve spent the last 8 years working at a veterinary clinics where I handle cats daily, ensuring their health and well-being in both routine and medical settings. My background also includes working at a non-profit feline clinic dedicated exclusively to cat care and wellness, where I supported everything from checkups to surgeries. Whether it’s administering medications, calming a nervous kitty, or spotting subtle signs of distress, I bring a compassionate, experienced touch to every cat I care for.
About: I have experience in wildlife rehabilitation, zookeeping, managing horses. I’m comfortable doing most basic animal care for a variety of animals and happy to learn about anything I haven’t had experience with. Dogs, cats, reptiles, hoofstock, poultry and so on! My schedule is fairly flexible with some notice. Available early mornings, late nights and in between. I am happy to adjust my schedule based on each animal’s routine and needs. I am attentive and observant of each animal’s needs and routines. Happy to follow specific schedules and tasks to adhere to their normal care standards. While I do have a yard, it is unfenced so dogs go out on a leash unless they have exceptional recall. Often joking or walks around the neighborhood. All animal’s are crated or otherwise contained when left alone for short periods and always separated at feeding times.

“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 amazing! Neemo has a lot of anxiety and she took care of him and made him feel at ease! I've never seen him come back so calm after staying with someone. Would definitely work with her again!”
“Daylin is our go to sitter for our 18-month doodle! She is very quick and responsive - even when I forget to request our booking until last minute. We receive pictures throughout the day and Cooper always looks like he's having fun. She's always accommodated all our food requests and pick up / drop off time changes without hesitation. We will definitely continue to use Daylin and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets and owning dogs (& cats) since I was 15 . I also took dog training classes in Germany . Over the past years I’ve watched friends and coworkers puppies , family and friends cats and did take in some dogs from military friends for vacation ! Our dogs are super friendly with all other pets ! Cats as well as dogs - all sizes! ( they love smaller dogs as a matter of fact!) Currently I’m a stay at home mom with a 13 month old baby! I offer mostly going for walks for busy dog parents during the day (: If you request boarding: We prefer meeting up with the dogs once or twice before taking them in , to make sure they get along. Our puppies love smaller dogs ! I have a fenced yard and a house , my puppies are both friendly with others. If needed or asked to, I can separate the dogs or keep in a crate .
“Danielle was an incredible dog sitter! She was very friendly and easy to communicate with. She took great care of my two dogs and made sure they were comfortable and happy. Highly recommended!”
“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.”
About: Hi! My name is Maytte, and caring for animals has been part of my life since I was a child. I grew up helping my father care for different kinds of animals on our family farm, which taught me patience, responsibility, and genuine love for pets. Your dog will be treated like a member of my own family. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and my goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and safe. I offer a clean, calm, and loving home where your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and regular potty breaks. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time. I also have two friendly dogs who are gentle and enjoy meeting new furry friends. If your dog prefers their own space, I can accommodate that as well. I will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide your pet with plenty of attention, companionship, and supervised care throughout the day. I offer boarding in my home and will do my best to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I also have two friendly dogs who enjoy meeting new friends, but if your dog prefers their own space, I can easily separate them. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and any special needs. I also send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

It's such a relief knowing our dog is getting the love and care she deserves while we're busy with our everyday lives. Whether it's a last-minute pop-up visit or our regular daycare days, D is always fantastic!”
“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.”

“Pam is very friendly impersonal. I’ve been using her regularly now for many weeks and she always fulfills her commitments and lets me know ahead of time of any changes in her schedule. She also tends to be somewhat flexible and communicates very well.”
“We used Trix for the first time today, she arrived on time as scheduled. She went through the process of un-crating our two 6-7 month old puppies, leashed and walked them. Followed this up with getting them back into their crates and then walking our 1 1/2 year old dog. We are pleased all went well and we will have her back again!”
“Lory was amazing. We have only had Clover for a week and were pretty hesitant about having a stranger come to our house and take care of our new puppy. She was nothing but compassionate and professional. We met before the service so we could all meet and get comfortable. We will definitely be seeing more of her and would recommend her.”
“Renny was flexible warm, patient, and very knowledgeable about animals and my dog's breed. She was communicative and I appreciated the quick response time. Gave me peace of mind when I was out of town. I would book her again!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 11, I grew up around more dogs and cats than I can count. I love being around them and I love spending time with them. Animals will hold my heart forever. I have plenty of time on my hands. I sit at home doing my work while my cat sits on a beanbag next to me, so taking care of your pets would add a lot of fun and joy to my day. I’m more than willing to let animals take time with me and learn to trust me. I also am very energetic so a playful pet is never an issue. They will be loved and cared for.
About: I work as a vet assistant for Stack Vet Hospital and have been there for 1.5 years now. I’ve also been watching animals for the past 6 years and have experience with all sorts of animals! I work full time but am always available before and after my shift as well as during my lunches if needed. I am available all day on weekends as well. I do my best to give every pet the same care my own pets would get. I love to provide one on one attention to each animal while I’m there as well. I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water each visit, have the chance to go outside or get walked, litter boxes are scooped and etc… depending on the pets needs.
About: What sets me apart is my experience working with dogs of all personalities and needs, especially reactive dogs and strong pullers. I have completed training with my own reactive chocolate lab through Justin’s Canine Campus, along with continuing training work at home, which has taught me patience, consistency, and how to read dog behavior closely. As a teacher, I’m dependable, calm, and attentive, and I naturally bring those qualities into caring for pets. I’ve loved animals since I was young and also continue to volunteer at animal shelters (Helping Hounds & HumaneCNY) giving me experience with dogs who may need extra patience, structure, or reassurance. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As a teacher, I have summers off and will soon be working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and quality attention. During the school year, I’m also an early bird and start my mornings with an average 2-mile walk with my own dog, so staying active and keeping pets on a routine is something I truly enjoy. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I try to keep pets on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure their space stays clean and that they feel calm while their owners are away.
“Kaylah is awesome!! She is so kind to my dog, and he was instantly comfortable around her! She is timely, keeps you informed, professional, and all around reliable! Both me and my dog think she’s the best!”
About: I have a degree in animal behavior that has prepared me to properly care for animals, among other skills. I have also owned dogs my entire life, including training one of my current dogs. I have volunteered at a dog rescue for about 6 years. I now work at an animal rescue that has me trained to give medications. I have also owned a senior cat for 4 years which has me comfortable cleaning litter boxes and administering medications. I currently have two part time jobs, and typically have 2 or 3 days completely available. On days I work I am available most evenings and occasionally mornings. I am unable to board animals at my house because of my other pets. However, I am able to commute to client's places. I am comfortable crating when I am not there if it is requested.
About: I had my own dog for 12 years. I also have a hamster. And 3 cats. A trait about me is that I have so much patience when it comes to animals. Another thing is that I definitely have some experience with senior care. I currently work part time as a dog grooming assistant but I’m available all day Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Every other day that I did not mention I am available after 6pm For taking care of pets in the clients house I would make sure to use all the equipment ready to use that I was told by the owners.
About: For 5 years, I have been a popular pet sitter for professors & friends and am now a proud pet owner too. Most of my services have been outside of Rover, but I am getting back into it! I care immensely about pets and care for them with much compassion and understanding. I have experience with high energy friends that need long walks with lots of exercise and friends who are laid back and just want a fellow couch potato. I am incredibly flexible; I will care for both cats and dogs (and occasionally other critters too) on just about any schedule as long as I have prior time to plan for it. I personally like to travel and hike, so if you have an adventurous friend they are welcome to join me! I also stay in touch frequently via text so I can best understand and care for your pet, because no one knows them better than you! I'm currently working part-time, but have a fairly lengthy commute 2 days a week so I am available most days of the calendar week but all evenings. I love to meet pets where they are with play energy levels, whether that be high or low. I try to keep them as comfortable as possible with new person in their space too! This can mean extra treats, cuddles, or even personal space. I send frequent text updates with owners as well.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Potty trained, crate trained, untrained. Had all.... Registered Nurse wanting to try working with new patients. I am reliable.. I am working part time and available after 2pm most days and have 3 days off during the week for more availability. I am flexible... I have a nice home with fenced in yard.

“Candy was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She was incredibly punctual and brave enough to come out even in the bitter cold, which we really appreciated. I was especially impressed by how she connected with our new rescue; she was empathetic, patient, and really understood what our pup needed. We will definitely be asking for her time again in the future. Overall, a great experience!”
“Nora was excellent with our dogs, they came back from walks tired and happy. It was clear that Nora has a ton of experience and is very knowledgeable about dog behavior. Would definitely book her again!”

About: I have never lived my life without a dog or cat. Growing up, I had three dogs, and my husband and I currently have two dogs and a cat, and I wouldn't trade it for the world! I can take care of and have experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs and cats! I know your pet will quickly become my family, too! I work full-time from home and have flexibility through my days to help with your pet needs! I am typically available any time between 9:00 AM - 7 PM for walks, drop-in visits, etc! We have a Lab (4) and a Pomeranian mix (8), plus a cat (6). Our pets have crates if needed and we can also accomodate your pet if needing to be crated as well. Our pets are a part of everything we do as a family, and our Lab is the only one crated when we leave the house. We have a large (unfenced) yard, but two leads and leashes as well. I am used to play fetch, taking long walks, snuggling, and lots of treats!
“Kristen has been a huge help with my 9 month old golden retriever. She has been flexible with her schedule and great with communication. She is very friendly and Winnie enjoyed greeting her at the door for a daily walk. Highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me and remains one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I currently have my own dog, who I adopted as a puppy while I was in college and is now 4 years old. Raising her has given me experience with training, building routines, and understanding different stages of a dog’s development. I’m comfortable administering medication, brushing and bathing, handling anxious behaviors, and keeping pets on their regular care schedules. I also have experience walking dogs that pull and can confidently handle strong or high-energy pups while keeping walks safe and structured. Whether your pet needs active playtime, consistent routines, or gentle care and attention, I’m patient and attentive, and I treat every pet like my own. As a current medical student, I understand the importance of flexibility and prioritizing a pet's needs. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and dependable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I am excited to learn about your pet's unique personality and am more than happy to accommodate any specific requests. As a medical student, my schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to thoughtfully plan pet care into my daily and weekly routine. While there are periods of time when I am less available, I’m committed to clear communication about my availability and will always work to accommodate your pet’s needs as best as possible. Time management is extremely important to my academic program, and I bring that same organization, dependability, and attention to detail to pet care. I take pride in my work and practice compassionate, attentive care in everything I do. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and value the trust you place in me to care for them. In my home, I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I currently live in an apartment located directly across the street from a dog park with both large and small dog areas, which allows for convenient, safe, and appropriate exercise based on your dog’s size and temperament. The neighborhood is safe and very pet-friendly. I’m attentive to maintaining each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special care needs. I make sure pets receive both physical activity and plenty of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize consistency and respect for your space. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and maintain your pet’s usual routine to minimize stress. I’m also willing to travel or make special trips if your dog attends daycare, has a preferred park, or enjoys a specific walking route. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible, wherever they are.
“Thank you again Erix! In town for family weekend and Erix was able to accommodate us at the last minute. Erix said our Coco is awesome and we think Erix is awesome too!!”
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 :)
“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!”
