“Joan and Tim have taken excellent care of our Boxweiler, Mamas, several times. They have excellent communication and send cute pics! We never have any concerns or worries when she is with them. We can't say enough good things!”
“Dana and Jeremy were great! They are so good to my dog and he loves them. He gets excited when we pull in their driveway. I feel relaxed because I know he is in good hands!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember and have been pet-sitting since age 10 for family, friends, and neighbors. I have almost always lived with at least one cat or dog (or both!) throughout my life. I also have experience caring for rabbits, ferrets, gerbils, fish, parakeets, bearded dragons, and cockatiels. I currently live with two indoor tortoiseshell cats who are comfortable with dogs, and one of my cats is leash-trained. I have raised and trained at least 11 dogs from puppies to adulthood (3 as my own and the others for my parents). Most of my cats I adopted as teenagers, but I have raised a few kittens from a young age. I have done extensive dog training with the 3 dogs I raised as my own in the past, and I am familiar with both dog and cat training techniques. I live in a cabin the woods in Boston, NY, on a power line gravel road. Although I do not have a fenced in back yard, your dog will enjoy going on leashed walks down the power line road multiple times per day! I earn a living through a mix of substitute teaching (summer starts June 25th!), remote research and writing gigs, tutoring, child care, and pet care. I have a flexible schedule and incorporate pet care into the mix as much as possible because I love animals. If I am boarding a dog at my home, I will not be house sitting at that time (and vice versa). While boarding or house sitting, I will consider dog walking and drop-ins depending on the needs of the client and driving distance. If you board your dog at my home, my cats and I wake up early (about 6am) and I like to go outside for a walk down the power line road right away, and then eat breakfast. Your dog will be able to spend time with me all day (on a leash when we are outside), and if I need to leave my house, they will be in their crate for no more than 4 hours (2 is my strong preference). We will go for at least one more walk before dinner, too. I will be sure to give them plenty of play time and exercise throughout the day (depending on their level of activity and how hot it is outside). No matter what, they will get a lot of love and attention! I live in a cabin in the woods in the Town of Boston, NY, so although I do not have a fenced-in yard, there is very little traffic or people around. I will be able to go on long leashed walks with your dog down the power line for exercise, and there are a few friendly neighbor dogs that would love to say hello if your dog is up for that. I do live with two cats: one of them will hide a lot while your dog is here, but the other is very dog-friendly and will want to interact with your dog. I will monitor and separate them as needed (I have a spare room). I have always crate-trained my dogs and so long as your dog is comfortable in their crate, I will use it as a safe place for them to be while they are staying with me.
“Loki loved his stay with Erica! Erica had a thorough meet and greet with us, asked great questions to make sure all parties felt comfortable. It was great receiving picture updates while I was away. Will definitely book with Erika again!”
“Chelsea and Derek were wonderful! They communicated well and provided pictures showcasing how well our pup was settling in. They managed multiple dogs without issue. We’ll certainly be back in the future.”
“Danielle was awesome! Gus had an amazing time and was so tuckered out when he got home yesterday which tells me he was well cared for and played a lot. She was very responsive and provided great updates daily.”
“Thank you Jenn & Brian for taking such great care of Rooney, just like last time. Thanks for all the pics and videos while we were away! Clearly he had a blast playing with your pups, and he also came home nice and clean!! 😀 You guys are the best!”
“Our dog, Millie, seemed like she had a great time with Megan and her kids! Megan was friendly and very communicative the whole time. We received lots of picture, video, and text updates. We would definitely use her again!”
“Denae and Mark were absolute angels! They are such nice people! I felt that my crazy, young pittie was in great hands! Zero felt right at home during the first meet and greet and that made leaving her there for a long weekend less anxiety-inducing for both me and her as she is a bit of an anxious dog. They made her feel so comfortable! I will definitely be booking with them again and would recommend them for anyone! Lots of pictures and great communication! Thank you Mark and Denae!”
“Katie was an excellent sitter for our dog Louie, while we were on a long vacation! This is the first time using Rover, as well as having someone outside of our family, watching our pet and it was an excellent experience! She sent daily updates and pictures which helped in dealing with the separation anxiety! Recommend highly and will use again!”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“Melissa and her son were amazing with my Bennie! She was very communicative with us and very understanding about our last minute boarding situation! She is amazing!”
“Lindsey took great care of our dog while we were away. Cooper enjoyed long walks and exploring all of their space. Highly recommend and our dog looks forward to the next time!”
“Monica is the best. The dogs love her and we will trust her with our puppers for any time we need a pet sitter. She was extremely communicative- texts, videos, pictures- and we couldn't have asked for better.”
“Rylee is wonderful. She took great care of Kiko and sent me updates very often. She was also very receptive to my instructions and advice for taking care of him. Kiko got to play with her other dogs, enjoy the big fenced in yard, go for rides in the car and enjoy some pup cups. Rylee really treated Kiko as one of her own. I will absolutely seek her out again should I need someone to care for Kiko in the future.”
“Kelly was great with our dog Bear! She was communicative throughout the whole process and put our minds at ease while we were away by sending pictures and video. Her dog was an added bonus since Bear doesn’t get too much exposure to friends. Would book again in a heartbeat!”
“Always the best, this was the first time they watched both of our dogs. And they were so happy and spent all day playing either Rambo (mary and caseys dog). Will use for every need”

About: I've never understood the "cat person versus dog person" rivalry because I grew up with and love them both! I currently live with two cats and their personalities are completely different even though they are both females and look alike! I enjoy slowly building trust with cats by respecting their boundaries. I love to play and cuddle with cats, but I never force a cat to do anything they don't want to do, which helps them open up to me. I see how cats thrive when I am calm and give them a regular routine.
About: I have had animals all my life. (mostly dogs and cats). I will take great care of your pets while you are away. I couldn't imagine a house without fur babies. I love spending time with animals. I am available in the evening during the week and weekends. I'm a teacher, so once summer begins I have more flexibility and can be available during all times during the week. I am open to whatever your pet needs, from cuddling to playing to feeding etc. I will treat your pet as my own and make them feel as comfortable as possible until you return home
“I could not have asked for a better first time experience using Rover! Jenny was amazing and came over before we left for vacation to meet our cats and get a rundown of their routine. She was thorough in her communication and it really made me feel so much better knowing that our cats were in good hands while we were away. I highly recommend Jenny for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“One of our cats accidentally turned in the gas burner on the stove. Mariah smelled gas and quickly called us. We were able to send people over and she waited to make sure our cats were ok. She saved our house and the neighbors! She is kind and takes excellent care of our 2 cats that are special needs. 100 stars!”
“Jes is amazing! She communicates daily while we’re away and I always feel completely comfortable with her taking care of my kitties- one of my cats receives daily medication and I can always be assured that he is receiving his meds and their needs are taken care of while we’re away- We are repeat customers and I will always book with Jes any time we need a sitter and know I can be totally at ease leaving them!”
About: I had had cats my entire life, my first being was Julie who I got at 1 year old and she lived to be just shy of 19. Growing up we rescued and fostered so many cats I couldn’t even begin to count and found them all loving homes. I am very comfortable with all types of temperaments, no matter if they need to play to get some energy out or would rather be left alone and I am just there to do basic needs and leave them be. Meeting them where they are at is what is most important to me! I have my own cat now, his name is Teddy! I would love yours just as if they were mine.
“She watched our cat for us while we were at a wedding. A storm got in the way of cell reception, but she still managed to send us a photo update. He was well-fed and happy when we returned. Great job!”
“Karen is a very kind dog sitter. She met every one of my expectations and more. I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew the pups were being well cared for at home. Thank you Karen!”
“This is the second time we’ve booked with Tara. She went above and beyond cleaning the cat’s dishes and helping pick up around our house after a raccoon made a mess. Our skittish cat has also really taken a liking to Tara which we are very happy about!”
“Barb exceeded every expectation. She was polite, professional, and communicative. I had no concerns that our pet was well taken care of in our absence. I recommend her without hesitation.”
“Shelby does an amazing job with Hondo! He loves her and really enjoys spending time with her. Such a relief to have a kind, efficient and reliable person helping us with him. Thank you!”
About: I grew up with cats and my best friend had dogs. I would always help her take care of them and took care of cats as my best friends. When I met my fiancé he had a 5 year old beagle and I fell even more in love with dogs. My dream one day is to open a senior dog sanctuary, but until then, I will take care of my own dogs and help others care for theirs! Our pets are part of our families and they deserve the best treatment. I work from home with a consistent schedule and am available for walks and check ins after 3:30pm during the week and any time during the weekend. I have 2 small beagles who love all dogs and love to play. They will make great play mates and walk companions to keep your pooch company.
“Peggy was great to take care of my cats while we were out of town! She tidied their stuff and sent me a note after each check-in. I'll definitely contact her again when we need someone to check on the cats!”
About: I’m a caring, reliable pet caretaker with hands-on experience in dog walking, drop-in visits, and a background as a former dog park and boarding employee, where I learned how to safely handle dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Animals have always been a huge part of my life—my own dog, Coco, is truly my best friend, and she spends plenty of time playing and walking with her “cousins,” Copper and Wesson. As a new mom and stay-at-home mom, I’m looking to earn some side income doing something I genuinely love: caring for pets as if they were my own. I’m very friendly, patient, and attentive, and I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident. 🐾💛 I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every animal like family by providing patience, attention, playtime, exercise, and lots of love. I understand how important routines are, and I’ll always follow your pet’s specific needs and instructions to help them feel secure and happy in their home environment.

“This was our first experience leaving our 9 mo. old shihtzu pup for daycare. Mom was nervous - puppy had the best day ever! Katie took great care of our boy and he definitely loved every minute, living his best life! Thank you Katie!”
About: I used to dog walk a couple dogs. Then I moved onto horses. So I know I can handle the hardest canines. They’re fun to have around. I’m working but also just thinking about doing this instead. Work gets boring and this wouldn’t. I love animals and they tend to love me back. I have a giant yard. They can’t be off leash but we can have fun running in the grass. I have animals that will stay upstairs when the dog or cat is here.
“We were very pleased with our experience with Chelsea and Derrick. Both are very warm individuals and did a great job welcoming and caring for our 1 year old puppy for the day. Their home is on a busy road but which gave some concern but that went away after meeting them and seeing their set up for safety and supervision. Thanks to both for giving Jasper a great and safe experience.”

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of dogs since I was a young child. Neighbors, family and friends have all asked me to pet sit! I now have a 2 year old rescue name Genny! She is very sweet, a big girl at 95lbs but extremely submissive in all situations! She would love a play mate and extra walks! Work from home M-F. On my lunch we always take a walk usually about 2 miles and Genny get plenty of potty breaks and outdoors time! I can follow any type of specific feeding plan and can ensure walks and outdoor time are a focus! I love dogs and would want to make sure your pet was taken care of they way I would want Genny to be!
About: I have been dog sitting in my home for years. Mostly family and also friends. I treat them as family. Lots of love and care.

“Jennifer is truly the best! She took such amazing care of our pup Suki. W honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment they met, it was clear she has a special way with dogs. Her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and full of love, which gave us so much peace of mind. Jennifer is a true dog whisperer and we’re so grateful to have found her! Highly, highly recommend. 🐾💛”
About: Hi there! I’m Erin — a full-time teacher during the school year and a full-time dog lover year round. During the summer, I have lots of extra time and flexibility to take your pups on long walks or stop by for drop-in visits when you need a hand. I’ve lived with and cared for dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m calm, friendly, and always take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pup is high-energy or a little more shy, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Looking forward to meeting you and your best friend! For the months of July and August I am completely free 7 days a week all day long. During the school year, I work as a teacher so I am at work from around 7:30-3:30. However, my evenings and weekends remain completely free. I have a fenced in yard and 2 happy pups to keep your furry friend company! Dogs are allowed on the furniture and I am happy to let them either roam free downstairs or be put in a kennel when I am not home. I have a gate that keeps my dog from going upstairs when I’m not home, so that can be closed at any time during the day too. Let me know what you prefer and we will make it work in order to let your pet be as comfortable as possible!
About: I’ve always had a dog growing up and currently have my own black lab! I also help my sister who fosters at a local rescue by letting her fosters take breaks, give them endless love with cuddles, and treat them like my own. Helping many different fosters, I have a lot of experiences with different breeds. My sister has a Husky and Australian Shepard who I take care of regularly too. I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, etc. I currently am a teacher so I will be doing this part time on evenings and weekends. I will be available on breaks of course! However, I will be available during all of summer including the weekends and weekdays for your dog’s needs! I have a big fenced in yard. I have a black lab to keep them company as well. I can put them in crate, feed, play, and walk them.
“Mary is absolutely fantastic. Beautiful home easy to get to. Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. My dog has been going to Mary every week. Safe environment I can’t recommend highly enough.”
About: Transporting pets across the country has shown me how to properly tend and care for animals. Having owned and trained two dogs over the years, has also proven to show the nitty gritty details that you just do not receive when only working with them at a job. I hope in choosing me to take care of your precious pets, that not only will I prove to be the most calming and caring person that will put your pets at ease, but also one who can put you at ease with the trust that your pet is in good hands. I work at a pet store part-time for the local owner, Shaun, for the Lucky Dog Co. I am never there for greater than a 5 hour shift. I have multiple sized cages ranging from extra small, to large. I do not have a customized crate, however the largest size I offer is a 700 series sized crate. These will only be used when I am not home. Your pet will have a fenced in property. There will always be clean water to drink from. I will feed them depending on your preferences for feeding. Otherwise, once in the morning and once in the evening. I look forward to taking care of your pets. Thank-you for choosing me!
“Nancy was amazing! Our dog enjoyed her time playing and hanging out. Despite my being a class A jerk and arriving far past our agreed upon time for pickup after getting caught in a storm, they were incredibly patient and understanding. We were very happy with our interaction and overall experience and would absolutely come back (if they'd take us! ?).”
About: It's Summertime!!! Bring your Pupp-a-ccinos and PuppCorn for a sleeprover to talk about. We just got a new doggie pool for the heat, and have a pop up agility course to play in. Never will a dog be off leash, will always be supervised on a 25ft long lead to have ample room to play and be safe. Parks nearby is Knox farm, memorial Park, BurchField and more. My car/dog mobile is set up with dog seatbelts so we can safely drive to our next fun destination( if approved by owner). I'm a Licensed Veterinary Technician and have been working in the animal industry for over 15 years. I am able to give quality attention and care all day. License is available upon request. Proof of vaccines and flea/tick prevention required PRIOR to drop off. I try to take only one dog but there may be an overlap of a boarding client and daycare client. Are you looking for someone who can stay with your fur baby and not be kenneled? I'm your woman. Prices may vary dependent on the needs of the client and how extensive it may be. I try to give an enriching environment for all pets that I'm caring for, but if they are more mellow, then I'm very good at snuggling. I enjoy outdoor activities and love to bring any dog who wants to explore nature with me. I can take your dog out on multiple leashed walks a day. We can go to a nearby park or sunbathe on my porch. I treat all pets like they are my own family member.
About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs over the years and have worked at PetSmart as a pets hotel associate. I have two dogs (10 and 3 years old). I’ve also owned four cats and babysat family and friends pets before! I am home all day so I am fully available to provide care to pets. I live in an apartment with two dogs and live in walking distance to a park where my dogs love to walk. I have two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your pet if desired. I am home all day and take my dogs for at least three walks a day and we usually visit a park daily.
“Jenn & Brian are really warm, friendly and welcoming. They’re really nice and we felt very comfortable while leaving milo at their place. I informed her about Milo’s neuter and she was really caring and kept sending updates about the stitches as well. I am from Chicago and sad that they’re in NY. If we are in same place I would send milo again and again to them whenever we go on a vacation. Best people ever! Highly Recommended.”

“Once again, Jessica was fantastic! We are so happy we booked her to watch our 16 year old dog. She sent daily photos, updates, and was easy to communicate with. Jessica made sure to give our old pup her meds every day, and gave her extra love. Neela was very happy and comfortable in our own home. We were so pleased. Thank you!”
About: I have been working with dogs since I was in 6th grade. I trained my childhood dog through a 4H program and we completed at the county fair each year in Obedience and Rally. Now I have a rescue who over the past 4 years we've helped work through a lot of reactivity and she now is an active participant in Rally competitions and other classes. As a teacher my summer is wide open for walks and drop in visits. Once the school year starts after school and weekends are open. I'm very comfortable with dogs of various sizes and needs. I can crate your furry family members, get them fed, out for walks etc. I'm comfortable with various walking equipment from harnesses to gentle leaders and collars.

“Jason has only been visiting Margo for a couple of weeks but she looks forward to seeing him. He's really good with her and it's comforting to know that he has medical experience.”
“I was so happy with the care Tara gave to my 2 German shepherds. She walked them daily for me and played with them with the same amount of care I give them when i was on vacation. I highly recommend her and would hire her again in the future”
About: I love dogs and had one for 17 years! Our good boy recently crossed the rainbow bridge and we miss him so much. I have experience with young dogs, but also with senior dogs I am currently available during the day every weekday, so whether it’s an early morning or late afternoon walk, I can be there no problem! I treat every dog like my own and give them as long as a walk as they prefer or as many pets as they desire!

About: I have been pet sitting for about 15 years, everything from quick play dates to extended stays lasting over a month. I've worked with a variety of dogs including a 13-year old 4 pound chihuahua, a vizla that required 5 or more hours of solid exercise a day, a 160 pound mastiff that thought he was a lap dog, and a very scared dalmatian/husky/german shepherd mix that needed some serious work on social interations. I've dealt with skunk attacks, bee stings, an intestinal blockage and various types of aggression. I AM NOT CURRENTLY ABLE TO STAY OVERNIGHT DURING SITTINGS. I KEPT IT IN MY PROFILE BECAUSE IT IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN BOOKING MULTIPLE DROP-INS At the end of last year I ended up taking in 3 Doberman puppies that I had dog sat for regularly. I was able to find a home of one of them but the other two are still with me. Because of this I am not able to do extended stays that require me to be gone overnight or dogs that cannot be left alone for a few hours due to separation anxiety or medical reasons. But if your dog is friendly please consider boarding! I currently work from home with flexible hours most of the time. My schedule is very accommodating and I love being able to take advantage of nice weather or last minute requests. The yard where I am is NOT fenced in, but it is very large with several acres of wooded area in the back. For dogs that need to stay on leash there is a long tie out and plenty of walks. I never let the dogs play outside without supervision. There are two other friendly dogs on the property (in addition to my own 2) and two dogs next-door that come over to play all the time. So we have our own mini, well-mannered, well-socialized dog park.

I have animals that will stay upstairs when the dog or cat is here.
About: I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits and a dog. I am a substitute teacher so my schedule is rather flexible. It allows me to arrange my week how I need it. My afternoons are usually pretty open. I will ensure that each pet is safe, secure and well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while providing updates to their families.
About: My parents have been breeding basset hounds since I was 6 years old. Ever since I can remember I have always helped my parents take care of our bassets. I would also help with the deliveries, which means I also have experience with taking care of puppies! My boyfriend has a pit bull mix and whenever I visit with him I will also help take care of his dog as well. She has a lot of energy so we take lots of long walks together. I work part time as a behavior technician so my schedule is pretty flexible. I mostly work evenings and I am off on Sundays and Mondays. I am also available most mornings. I am very good at sticking to a schedule and I am super organized so I will make sure that your pet gets fed at the correct time and has plenty of fresh water. I am an animal lover so I will be sure to give your pets lots of love and attention as well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. I grew up on a farm, and we always had animals to care for. Currently, I have 1 dog and 4 cats, we rescued a cat family. I am working part time so I will have plenty of opportunity to care for your dog. Anytime would be a good time for me to board your pet, drop in to house sit or take your dog for a walk. I have a large fenced yard, a large awning area, and a garage set up for shade, along with other dog friendly amenities. I have a doggy pool and dog beds for cozy comfort. Lots of room to run and play as well.
About: I’ve always had a dog growing up and currently have my own black lab! I also help my sister who fosters at a local rescue by letting her fosters take breaks, give them endless love with cuddles, and treat them like my own. Helping many different fosters, I have a lot of experiences with different breeds. My sister has a Husky and Australian Shepard who I take care of regularly too. I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, etc. I currently am a teacher so I will be doing this part time on evenings and weekends. I will be available on breaks of course! However, I will be available during all of summer including the weekends and weekdays for your dog’s needs! I have a big fenced in yard. I have a black lab to keep them company as well. I can put them in crate, feed, play, and walk them.
About: Hi there! I’m Erin — a full-time teacher during the school year and a full-time dog lover year round. During the summer, I have lots of extra time and flexibility to take your pups on long walks or stop by for drop-in visits when you need a hand. I’ve lived with and cared for dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m calm, friendly, and always take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pup is high-energy or a little more shy, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Looking forward to meeting you and your best friend! For the months of July and August I am completely free 7 days a week all day long. During the school year, I work as a teacher so I am at work from around 7:30-3:30. However, my evenings and weekends remain completely free. I have a fenced in yard and 2 happy pups to keep your furry friend company! Dogs are allowed on the furniture and I am happy to let them either roam free downstairs or be put in a kennel when I am not home. I have a gate that keeps my dog from going upstairs when I’m not home, so that can be closed at any time during the day too. Let me know what you prefer and we will make it work in order to let your pet be as comfortable as possible!
“Alyssa was absolutely amazing! My dog absolutely loved his time with her. She always kept me informed with what was going on, including multiple pictures. Despite very inclement weather she still showed up and made sure Roger was taken care of! She brought towels, checked his food and water! I cannot recommend her strongly enougj”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own who are spoiled rotten. I adore pets of all kinds, I even have a ferret and bearded dragon myself. I do work full time, but I know how hard it is finding a quality person to watch your babies. I have a flexible job so I can make any schedule fit! I also have a 16 year old child who loves dogs as well, so if your fur baby does well with children and you want them to have a little socialization that way I am willing to bring my child. I know how much dogs miss their humans when they are gone, so I will do my best to make them as loved and comfortable as possible I do work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule. I can accommodate almost all schedules will my work schedule. I look forward to loving your fur babies. I would prefer to care for pets in their home. I think this makes pets more comfortable being in their own space that they know.
About: I’m a caring, reliable pet caretaker with hands-on experience in dog walking, drop-in visits, and a background as a former dog park and boarding employee, where I learned how to safely handle dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Animals have always been a huge part of my life—my own dog, Coco, is truly my best friend, and she spends plenty of time playing and walking with her “cousins,” Copper and Wesson. As a new mom and stay-at-home mom, I’m looking to earn some side income doing something I genuinely love: caring for pets as if they were my own. I’m very friendly, patient, and attentive, and I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident. 🐾💛 I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every animal like family by providing patience, attention, playtime, exercise, and lots of love. I understand how important routines are, and I’ll always follow your pet’s specific needs and instructions to help them feel secure and happy in their home environment.
About: Having worked as both a dog trainer and a pet care associate for PetSmart for 3+ years - as well as having always been a pet owner myself - I’ve learned a great deal about how to suit the needs of each and every pet and how to best communicate with them and accommodate their needs! As a teacher aide with summers off, I will have almost complete availability over summer. I am flexible and willing to work with you to figure out what will work best for I can comfortably handle different types of animals with my 2+ years of experience owning my own (cats, dogs, gerbils, hamsters, etc) and working with different species, as well as training dogs at my previous job as a PetSmart worker for 3+ years!

“Joan and Tim have taken excellent care of our Boxweiler, Mamas, several times. They have excellent communication and send cute pics! We never have any concerns or worries when she is with them. We can't say enough good things!”
“Dana and Jeremy were great! They are so good to my dog and he loves them. He gets excited when we pull in their driveway. I feel relaxed because I know he is in good hands!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember and have been pet-sitting since age 10 for family, friends, and neighbors. I have almost always lived with at least one cat or dog (or both!) throughout my life. I also have experience caring for rabbits, ferrets, gerbils, fish, parakeets, bearded dragons, and cockatiels. I currently live with two indoor tortoiseshell cats who are comfortable with dogs, and one of my cats is leash-trained. I have raised and trained at least 11 dogs from puppies to adulthood (3 as my own and the others for my parents). Most of my cats I adopted as teenagers, but I have raised a few kittens from a young age. I have done extensive dog training with the 3 dogs I raised as my own in the past, and I am familiar with both dog and cat training techniques. I live in a cabin the woods in Boston, NY, on a power line gravel road. Although I do not have a fenced in back yard, your dog will enjoy going on leashed walks down the power line road multiple times per day! I earn a living through a mix of substitute teaching (summer starts June 25th!), remote research and writing gigs, tutoring, child care, and pet care. I have a flexible schedule and incorporate pet care into the mix as much as possible because I love animals. If I am boarding a dog at my home, I will not be house sitting at that time (and vice versa). While boarding or house sitting, I will consider dog walking and drop-ins depending on the needs of the client and driving distance. If you board your dog at my home, my cats and I wake up early (about 6am) and I like to go outside for a walk down the power line road right away, and then eat breakfast. Your dog will be able to spend time with me all day (on a leash when we are outside), and if I need to leave my house, they will be in their crate for no more than 4 hours (2 is my strong preference). We will go for at least one more walk before dinner, too. I will be sure to give them plenty of play time and exercise throughout the day (depending on their level of activity and how hot it is outside). No matter what, they will get a lot of love and attention! I live in a cabin in the woods in the Town of Boston, NY, so although I do not have a fenced-in yard, there is very little traffic or people around. I will be able to go on long leashed walks with your dog down the power line for exercise, and there are a few friendly neighbor dogs that would love to say hello if your dog is up for that. I do live with two cats: one of them will hide a lot while your dog is here, but the other is very dog-friendly and will want to interact with your dog. I will monitor and separate them as needed (I have a spare room). I have always crate-trained my dogs and so long as your dog is comfortable in their crate, I will use it as a safe place for them to be while they are staying with me.
“Chelsea and Derek were wonderful! They communicated well and provided pictures showcasing how well our pup was settling in. They managed multiple dogs without issue. We’ll certainly be back in the future.”
“Thank you Jenn & Brian for taking such great care of Rooney, just like last time. Thanks for all the pics and videos while we were away! Clearly he had a blast playing with your pups, and he also came home nice and clean!! 😀 You guys are the best!”
“Our dog, Millie, seemed like she had a great time with Megan and her kids! Megan was friendly and very communicative the whole time. We received lots of picture, video, and text updates. We would definitely use her again!”
“Denae and Mark were absolute angels! They are such nice people! I felt that my crazy, young pittie was in great hands! Zero felt right at home during the first meet and greet and that made leaving her there for a long weekend less anxiety-inducing for both me and her as she is a bit of an anxious dog. They made her feel so comfortable! I will definitely be booking with them again and would recommend them for anyone! Lots of pictures and great communication! Thank you Mark and Denae!”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“Melissa and her son were amazing with my Bennie! She was very communicative with us and very understanding about our last minute boarding situation! She is amazing!”
“Lindsey took great care of our dog while we were away. Cooper enjoyed long walks and exploring all of their space. Highly recommend and our dog looks forward to the next time!”
“Monica is the best. The dogs love her and we will trust her with our puppers for any time we need a pet sitter. She was extremely communicative- texts, videos, pictures- and we couldn't have asked for better.”
“Rylee is wonderful. She took great care of Kiko and sent me updates very often. She was also very receptive to my instructions and advice for taking care of him. Kiko got to play with her other dogs, enjoy the big fenced in yard, go for rides in the car and enjoy some pup cups. Rylee really treated Kiko as one of her own. I will absolutely seek her out again should I need someone to care for Kiko in the future.”
“Kelly was great with our dog Bear! She was communicative throughout the whole process and put our minds at ease while we were away by sending pictures and video. Her dog was an added bonus since Bear doesn’t get too much exposure to friends. Would book again in a heartbeat!”
“So glad to have this beautiful family watch Dax for us! He was well loved and taken care of!! We received many photos and had great communication during his visit! We will definitely be using them in the future!!”
“Mickey was great. She made Beasley feel very comfortable and treated him like one of the family. She even bought him a sweater that she let us keep while we were gone because it got very cold out. He not only loved her but he also made a couple new friends at her house. Sunny and Sylvester were great companions for him during his stay. We will definitely be calling Mickey for future travels when Beasley needs a place to stay.”
“Kona had a great stay at Shannon and David’s! They were welcoming and warm which made Kona very comfortable. Pictures were so cute. He loved the long walks too! We were able to have a great weekend in Ellicottville with no worries. I highly recommend them and would absolutely have Kona stay on our next visit!”
