“If you are looking for an exceptional dog-sitter, look no further than Rutha K. She provided our Cavapoo, Tori, with excellent care and my wife and I were very confident in leaving Tori with her for the few days we were away. We will definitely utilize her services again!”

“Angela is a gem! I was planning a road trip with my 7.5 year old Norwegian Elkhound, Grayson (med. size) from Terre Haute, Indiana to Clinton, NY to visit family just recently in October of 2025. There were a lot of pieces of the of the puzzle to figure out and I started my internet and calling search in August. I was going to be staying at my mother's Senior apartment complex, celebrating her 87th birthday, but they do not allow visiting/staying dogs. My brother lives nearby but due to teenagers coming and going and having a small dog I needed to find other accommodations for Grayson. I called, emailed and options were few and far between. Some boarding kennels were too expensive or already booked, or had rules that the dog must stay until final pickup. Independent pet/home sitters not on Rover did not return emails. I needed to be able to take Grayson out a couple of times during the trip so that my mom could see Grayson as well as enjoy some of the Clinton fun spots with him while there. I also needed to pick Grayson up for the weekend to visit relatives in Massachusetts, then return him for another pet stay the next week. Angela was literally the last person I reached out to (having never used Rover and was unsure at first to use the service) and she got what I was trying to accomplish! We had seamless communication through Rover for initial Q & A and then had a couple of video chats to confirm that this was a match! The Rover app is similar to Airbnb where communication, reservations, and payment are done over the platform. When it was time for travel, Angela let us know she was ready for us! Grayson stayed with Angela Monday through Friday with a mid-week pick up for an afternoon, then picked up Grayson for the weekend getaway visiting relatives. Then Grayson spent Monday through Wednesday of the next week with Angela. Let me just say Grayson fell in love with Angela and Angela fell in love with Grayson! Angela is very attentive with all the details, and all the things you bring to make your pup comfortable (meds, crate, blankets, etc all was handled with care!) Grayson loved all the walks and attention she gave him! It was fun making the drive from Clinton to Angela's, about a 30 min. drive and her town is so pretty, especially with the fall colors and stopping at the local museum and produce stands was so enjoyable. I felt totally comfortable the whole trip that Grayson was well cared for. Angela went the extra mile with lots of attention, walks, brushing and getting an extra bone when I forgot mine. Without Angela, this road trip would not have happened as I really wanted to bring Grayson and have my mom see him as time marches on and wanted mom to see Grayson before any more time went by. Angela made my dream trip come true! Grayson and I even had a side trip to Niagara Falls and I will remember this trip forever! I plan to do this roundtrip again and will definitely book Angela again! I recommend Angela as an exceptional pet/home sitter! For any travelers out there with itineraries like mine, you will be in great hands with Angela! Thank you, Angela, your care for Grayson totally warmed my heart! Your service and care were impeccable! When I set up the next road trip, I will be in touch! Kris A, Terre Haute, Indiana”

“Lauren was great with my dog moose. He was very happy every picture update I received. Her home was very dog friendly and moose loved his stay. I highly recommend her for any of your future dog boarding needs. I will definitely be using her services in the future.”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Becky! From our first interaction, it was clear how genuinely caring, responsible, and attentive they were. She took the time to get to know our dog’s personality and little quirks, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the stay, we received consistent updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made it so easy to relax knowing our pup was in such great hands. It honestly felt like our dog was on their own little vacation. What really stood out was the level of detail and effort. Becky and her daughter went above and beyond in every way. Whether it was sticking to her feeding and supplement schedules, making sure our dog got plenty of love and attention, extra attention to her needs (it was a change of seasons aka shedding time and they gave her lots of extra care and brushing to keep her comfortable!), it was all so appreciated. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but I would 100% book Becky again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, you’ve found the one!”

“Debbie is an amazing and attentive dog sitter. I felt absolutely at ease leaving Kona with her. I always have a hard time emotionally leaving my animals and this time I felt completely free to leave, knowing Kona was in the right place. I truly appreciate the schedule, with play and exercise time followed up by beautiful supportive pictures of Kona.”

“Heather was amazing! She took care of our boy and made him feel at home with her. Kept us updated how he was doing and sent us pictures. Communication was great! She really put our mind at ease and we were able to enjoy our trip more knowing our boy was well taken care of. Above and beyond service.”

“Highly recommend Whitney and Kevin very pleasant and Spritz enjoys staying with Whitney and Kevin. They send pictures and makes you feel comfortable leaving our furbaby.”

About: I have multiple friends who trust me to give their dogs an adventure and also be their dogs’ cuddle buddy on the couch. I do my best to know the individual(s) and their dogs to cater to their needs, whether their trips are short term or long term. I’ve dog sat in people’s home or my home and while the owner is gone, I have trained their dogs as well if needed or if they ask. I’m a communicative and intentional individual for the owners and the fur buddies. I make my own schedule for work so I can be as flexible as I need to be in order to care the pet. I keep a routine in my phone and calendar in order to give better intentional care for the pet(s). I do my best to help the pets become familiar with their surroundings, with me, and also help them by being a consistent and calm sitter for them. I can be firm and assertive, but also fun and goofy with them.

“Katelyn was an enthusiastic and extremely competent sitter! She is a good communicator that got along well with our two cats and provided an excellent quality of care. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Emily. I grew up with all kinds of pets and have always had animals in my life, so taking care of them just comes naturally to me. I’m starting school for radiology in September, so my schedule is pretty open right now and I’d love to help however I can. I’ve taken care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors for years, and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m reliable, patient, and careful to follow any instructions exactly as given. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—whether they’re energetic, shy, or need a little extra care. I’m also respectful of your space and always aim to leave your home just as I found it. Communication is important to me, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule right now with full availability during the week and weekends, which allows me to focus on providing reliable pet care. Once I begin school this fall, I’ll continue to offer care on evenings and weekends. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or some one-on-one attention, I’m happy to help when you need it. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m a pet owner myself and have animals at home, so I truly understand how much they mean to you. I always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I follow instructions carefully, stick to routines, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also respectful of your home and aim to make the whole process as easy and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

About: I have extensive experience caring for cats at every stage of life. I’ve been caring for cats since I was 5 years old, starting with my first cat, Rosie, and have since gained hands-on experience with both kittens and senior cats. I’ve also raised four kittens (three rescues), so I understand the patience, attention, and consistency young cats need to thrive. I’m especially comfortable with senior cat care, including administering medications, managing special diets, and assisting with more advanced needs like subcutaneous fluids. I’m very attentive to subtle changes in behavior or health—something especially important with cats—and can provide a higher level of care for those with medical needs. While my primary focus is cats, I do have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs through my own pets and those of friends and family.
“Riley was great to work with - we even had a tricky lockout situation while we were away and Riley worked with us every step of the way to get it resolved. Strongly recommend Riley.”

About: I grew up in a house with 2 springer spaniels (and several other pets), one of which I'd received for my 9th birthday. I was completely responsible for training and caring for my own dog and really worked hard at it. She was such a pivotal part of my growing up years. Now many years later, I house and dog sit often for friends and really enjoy getting to know their pets. I have no dog of my own (although I do have two wonderful cats), my kids are grown and in college, and I have lots of energy and a pretty good amount of free time. I work full time in Clinton but rise early and have time prior to work, during lunch, and in the evenings. I love long walks! I've also taken great care of my own home so am happy to care for yours, your plants, a cat or two, what have you. Two in college so hoping to have fun with dogs and earn a bit of extra income!

“I am so happy to have found Laura, she was so welcoming, thoughtful and reassuring to my little Boston who is quite the sensitive boy. He was able to lounge in the home comfortably and also free to play and frolic with other like minded pups. Just a great all around experience, thanks a million!”

“William is awesome. He always keeps you updated on how your dog is doing, along with pictures. My dog, who is usually very cautious, warmed up to him right away. Definitely would recommend!!”

About: I grew up with dogs and recently owned 2 rescued dogs. I have land around my home and access to a wooded area with trails for longer walks. I am comfortable with caring for dogs in any facet. I am a teacher and I am looking for summer work. I am free every day until late August. I am willing to walk your dog in your neighborhood or board a dog over night. I have a stake in my yard for when my daughter visits with her 35 lb. Dog. Previous bigger dogs were walked on a leash at all times. I usually walk my dogs 1-2x daily for up to a 1/2 hour.
About: I have over forty years of dog experience. I bred German Shepherd’s for fifteen years. I have taken obedience, agility, and Nose work from local professional trainers and have done puppy, beginner, intermediate and advanced obedience with three of my dogs. I also worked for 1.5 years at a doggie daycare in Utica. I want to do my doggie daycare on a small scale so your pet receives individual attention. I have seen places doing 25- 50 dogs with only one or two people watching them and I feel there is a great need for care on a much smaller scale. So here I am! I retired from banking and with my husband live on our small farm in the country. We built what we call the dog arena for exercising our personal dogs and I intend to use it to also exercise my clients dogs. I am available most weekends and week days. I was working a part time job at a doggie daycare but recently decided that I would prefer to be home with my pups and yours! I have a large fenced in exercise area. I have gates in my home so I can gradually introduce our dogs or can keep them separate depending on individual needs.
“Took great care of our pets,Sent many photos,videos and took them for walks. He kept us informed on how they were doing and the dogs seemed happy to return for a second visit. I would highly recommend this Rover sitter for any one in the area needing a pet sitter.”

“We are very grateful to Steve for his gentle caring to make Charlie feel comfortable. He made recommendations before and during our dog’s one time stay. We felt reassured that Charlie was in good hands. Thanks for sharing videos with us.”

“I can’t thank Gil enough for the attentiveness, caring, and love he showed to my 15 yr old dachshund! Gil took the time to listen to my wife and me when we described to him our pup’s tendencies and hinderances. We felt confident as we pulled out of the driveway that our old guy was in great hands! Gil made sure to send us photos of our pup throughout the day, as well as updates on its evacuations (very important for an older dog). Overall, I can say unequivocally that Gil was a perfect sitter for our elderly pup, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter in that area! Kudos, Gil!”
“Heather was great with my little guy. I was heading to Cooperstown for a few hours and needed a place for him to stay while I was out and about. Heather sent me pictures and updates the few hours she had him. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend using Heather to watch your dog!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. When I was a child I had all sorts of different pets. I had fish, hamsters, gerbils, lizards and rabbits. When I got older I had a family dog named Lulu who I helped house brake and train as a pup when I was in high school. When I became an adult I adopted my dog Weston who I’ve had and trained since he was an eight week old puppy. I’m very confident in my ability to help house train your young dog if need be. I understand how much stimulation and exercise they require. I’m happy to provide that through long walks, trips to the dog park and general outings. I have lots of chew toys around and ways to keep feisty puppies occupied. I’ve fostered cats as well as taken care of neighbors’ kittens including providing feedings and litter box cleaning when necessary. I’ve always wanted to have a parrot as a pet so if you have birds that need care I’d appreciate the opportunity to come help out and learn more about them :). I’m currently a full time pet sitter. I have a dog of my own as well. I will be available all hours of the day and night to care for your animal(s). I’m happy to spend the extra time taking puppies in training as well as senior dogs outside as much as they need. I have a friendly golden doodle named Weston to keep your pup company. I’m happy to help house brake puppies as well as provide care for senior animals.

About: I have been around animals my entire life and love every furry friend like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including high energy puppies, senior dogs, and anxious personalities. I’ve raised my own dogs from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love that go into caring for them at every stage of life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, and making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust someone, so I always prioritize communication, reliability, and a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks. Being home allows me to give pets consistent attention instead of leaving them alone for long periods. At my home, I have a small fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Safety is always my top priority, and I keep a structured, calm environment while still making sure they get plenty of love and attention. I also have three friendly pugs who are well socialized and used to being around other dogs, so your pup will have built-in companionship and playmates (if they enjoy other dogs!). I always introduce dogs slowly and make sure everyone is comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact routine including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and house rules to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or theirs.
“Alexxis is amazing! She’s on time, reliable, and wonderful with my pup. She’s been great when I’ve needed a quick schedule change or with any special needs my dog has. She’s the best”

“Trish was great! She agreed to help walk our dog everyday during a work trip on short notice in awful weather. Our puppy is still learning and she dealt with that like a pro. Thanks!”

About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life. My friends jokingly call me the dog whisperer. I have experience with everything from potty training to surgical rehab and medicine administration. Nighttime visits and Long walks are no sweat. I'm also very neat and clean so any messes made by your pups are no problem at all. My schedule is currently open 7 days a week. If for any reason I am not available pet owners will be made aware before scheduling any services. I recently lost both my pups to cancer. Thorn was almost 15, and my girl Rain was almost 13. Being around other dogs is helping me cope with their loss. My home yard is very large (over an acre), and fully fenced in. Dogs also don't have any furniture restrictions in my home. They're welcome to sit or sleep wherever they like. If sitting in your home I abide by your rules for everything. Dinner time, kinds of treats, or walks schedules are all set by you.

About: My name is Tim Borza and I was born and raised right outside Utica, NY. I’ve been watching pets for the last 7 years, with the last 3 being back in the Utica area. I had a dog growing up, and currently have one of my own now. I am open to all services, but primarily care for dogs in my own home in Whitesboro, NY. I own my own business so I am on my own schedule making for dog care very easy. I am able to provide bathrooms breaks and go for walks at inconvene times if needed. I have a fenced in yard and live by myself making for a relaxing, comfertable and playful environment. I also own a dog of my own with a great temperament and have been caring for dogs for years.
About: I live in Waterville and would love to watch your fur babies. I have had a dog my whole life mostly labs but I really enjoy dogs and watching their interactions with humans and with other pets. My pups go everywhere with me especially on hikes they are troopers. Wouldn't mind having some other dogs to accompany us. I am currently working full time from home with a flexible schedule. I take my dogs for walks around the neighborhood on breaks and lunches. I have a large back yard with a lot of room to play ball or to fetch. I have other friendly playful dogs that would love to have some play mates.
About: As a current pet store employee, I’m constantly refreshing my knowledge on all animals so that I can better help any pet parents that come in. This includes staying up to date on care and training practices, as well as knowing what products are useful and needed and when they may be needed. I also work closely with the grooming and training team, so I have a bit of knowledge in those areas as well! As a college graduate with a biology degree who’s main focus was on animals of all kind, I take animal care very seriously. I constantly am reading up on care and learning to understand animal body language as best as humanly possible. My animals mean the world to me, and I know others feel the same way about theirs. If theres any way I can assure people their pets and comfortable and safe while they’re away, that’s what I try to do. I am very vigilant while I am watching any type of pet, meaning I’m always making sure they are not getting into anything they shouldn’t, that they are properly restrained when outside of the home, and that they are living in a clean home while I am there. Cats litter boxes scooped daily, dogs walked daily and well engaged in activity, and any other pets properly cared for as well.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover. When I was a child I had all sorts of different pets. I had fish, hamsters, gerbils, lizards and rabbits. When I got older I had a family dog named Lulu who I helped house brake and train as a pup when I was in high school. When I became an adult I adopted my dog Weston who I’ve had and trained since he was an eight week old puppy. I’m very confident in my ability to help house train your young dog if need be. I understand how much stimulation and exercise they require. I’m happy to provide that through long walks, trips to the dog park and general outings. I have lots of chew toys around and ways to keep feisty puppies occupied. I’ve fostered cats as well as taken care of neighbors’ kittens including providing feedings and litter box cleaning when necessary. I’ve always wanted to have a parrot as a pet so if you have birds that need care I’d appreciate the opportunity to come help out and learn more about them :). I’m currently a full time pet sitter. I have a dog of my own as well. I will be available all hours of the day and night to care for your animal(s). I’m happy to spend the extra time taking puppies in training as well as senior dogs outside as much as they need. I have a friendly golden doodle named Weston to keep your pup company. I’m happy to help house brake puppies as well as provide care for senior animals.
About: I am an avid animal lover who owns two dogs (a 5 year old cocker spaniel-poodle along with a 3 year old cocker spaniel-poodle). My animals are my life and I love meeting other fur babies :) I take my own dogs on walks and car rides nearly daily and I have been trusted to care for my extended families’ pets as well. I am very protective over all of my animals, making sure they’re safe and healthy, but I also spoil them with treats often. I feel I am very prepared to take care of other people’s animals because I understand the importance fur babies are in people’s lives, and I would do everything I can to protect them like they’re my own. I do work at Kelberman Monday-Friday 8-4, but I am available to stop in before or after work as long as I have a proper notice. At my own home, I have a fenced in yard where I play fetch with my dogs for HOURS. I love a good walk and love taking dogs for walks :)

“If you are looking for an exceptional dog-sitter, look no further than Rutha K. She provided our Cavapoo, Tori, with excellent care and my wife and I were very confident in leaving Tori with her for the few days we were away. We will definitely utilize her services again!”

“Angela is a gem! I was planning a road trip with my 7.5 year old Norwegian Elkhound, Grayson (med. size) from Terre Haute, Indiana to Clinton, NY to visit family just recently in October of 2025. There were a lot of pieces of the of the puzzle to figure out and I started my internet and calling search in August. I was going to be staying at my mother's Senior apartment complex, celebrating her 87th birthday, but they do not allow visiting/staying dogs. My brother lives nearby but due to teenagers coming and going and having a small dog I needed to find other accommodations for Grayson. I called, emailed and options were few and far between. Some boarding kennels were too expensive or already booked, or had rules that the dog must stay until final pickup. Independent pet/home sitters not on Rover did not return emails. I needed to be able to take Grayson out a couple of times during the trip so that my mom could see Grayson as well as enjoy some of the Clinton fun spots with him while there. I also needed to pick Grayson up for the weekend to visit relatives in Massachusetts, then return him for another pet stay the next week. Angela was literally the last person I reached out to (having never used Rover and was unsure at first to use the service) and she got what I was trying to accomplish! We had seamless communication through Rover for initial Q & A and then had a couple of video chats to confirm that this was a match! The Rover app is similar to Airbnb where communication, reservations, and payment are done over the platform. When it was time for travel, Angela let us know she was ready for us! Grayson stayed with Angela Monday through Friday with a mid-week pick up for an afternoon, then picked up Grayson for the weekend getaway visiting relatives. Then Grayson spent Monday through Wednesday of the next week with Angela. Let me just say Grayson fell in love with Angela and Angela fell in love with Grayson! Angela is very attentive with all the details, and all the things you bring to make your pup comfortable (meds, crate, blankets, etc all was handled with care!) Grayson loved all the walks and attention she gave him! It was fun making the drive from Clinton to Angela's, about a 30 min. drive and her town is so pretty, especially with the fall colors and stopping at the local museum and produce stands was so enjoyable. I felt totally comfortable the whole trip that Grayson was well cared for. Angela went the extra mile with lots of attention, walks, brushing and getting an extra bone when I forgot mine. Without Angela, this road trip would not have happened as I really wanted to bring Grayson and have my mom see him as time marches on and wanted mom to see Grayson before any more time went by. Angela made my dream trip come true! Grayson and I even had a side trip to Niagara Falls and I will remember this trip forever! I plan to do this roundtrip again and will definitely book Angela again! I recommend Angela as an exceptional pet/home sitter! For any travelers out there with itineraries like mine, you will be in great hands with Angela! Thank you, Angela, your care for Grayson totally warmed my heart! Your service and care were impeccable! When I set up the next road trip, I will be in touch! Kris A, Terre Haute, Indiana”

“Lauren was great with my dog moose. He was very happy every picture update I received. Her home was very dog friendly and moose loved his stay. I highly recommend her for any of your future dog boarding needs. I will definitely be using her services in the future.”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Becky! From our first interaction, it was clear how genuinely caring, responsible, and attentive they were. She took the time to get to know our dog’s personality and little quirks, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the stay, we received consistent updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made it so easy to relax knowing our pup was in such great hands. It honestly felt like our dog was on their own little vacation. What really stood out was the level of detail and effort. Becky and her daughter went above and beyond in every way. Whether it was sticking to her feeding and supplement schedules, making sure our dog got plenty of love and attention, extra attention to her needs (it was a change of seasons aka shedding time and they gave her lots of extra care and brushing to keep her comfortable!), it was all so appreciated. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but I would 100% book Becky again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, you’ve found the one!”

“A wonderfully sweet and caring sitter who did a magnificent job taking care of my senior dog. She is very mature and professional.

“Top tier Dog Sitter. I was in a bind and she was able to help me out even though it was last minute. Can’t say thank you enough for everything. My pup had a great time to the point where he was sad to leave her house. She did an excellent job taking care of Tucker and she also did a great job with his grooming. Definitely will be using her again. Thank you, Jeremy”

“Tracy took extra special care to make sure that my puppy got plenty of exercise and attention while sticking to our normal routine. Our puppy came back happy and healthy and we couldn't have been happier.”

“Jenna is amazing with animals. I have never been able to leave my pup and feel comfortable. He's a dog with many needs, medical, behavioral you name it. He gets into tons of trouble. She was able to keep him safe qnd happy and he got a ton if exercise and attention just like he was at home. We have even tried a doggy daycare and he was hurt while we were away. Jenna kept him safe. We will be using her again next month!”

“Vanessa took great care of our Lady, a 6 month old berner pup. She worked with her on tricks and socializing with the other dogs while allowing her to play outside in the snow and taking really good care of her. Would love to have her dog sit for us again and Lady would agree”

“Ashley and her family were absolutely wonderful! They sent lots of great pictures and updates and were so sweet to our pup. Wish we lived closer, we would send him there more! But will be sure to go back when we are nearby again.”

“Highly recommend Whitney and Kevin very pleasant and Spritz enjoys staying with Whitney and Kevin. They send pictures and makes you feel comfortable leaving our furbaby.”

“Research & clinical shadowing outside of NY meant I had to find a pet boarder this summer for my cat. I wanted to make sure he was left in good hands; Tyler was an outstanding sitter for my Mango 🥭🐈 Tyler took care of Mango like his own: taking him to vet visits, making sure to play with him, & sending me frequent updates. Thank you so much Tyler!”

“I cannot say enough good things about the fantastic experience I received working with Gil. He took care of my girl like she was his own. He was in contact with me throughout the stay, making me feel very at ease, and comfortable.”

“Katie has been amazing on keeping me up to date on how my puppers was doing/adjusting. She sent photos for a few updates as well!! We will be back again and I know Maple is already excited to get back there!”

“Cassandra was amazing with my Sophia who is an older dog with a few senior issues. We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anne”
