“Our puppy is just like another child to our family. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Steve and could tell she had a great time while we were away. We are thankful to have found this service and will definitely be in contact with them again.”
“During the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.”
“I'm with my dog 24/7 so it's hard for me to part with her when we travel. We're so glad we found Charlene and Rick. They went above and beyond to make sure that we could wrap up our trip without worries. Our dog loved both of them and we'll definitely ask for their help again when we need it!”
“Mary was absolutely amazing while keeping our lab pup! She was very kind and clear about what his stay would be like during our meet and greet, and she sent updates and photos throughout to let us know how he was doing. I had 100% confidence that he was playing, getting love and having a great time. The dogs have a great yard to play in and plenty of toys and spots for naps. I’m very thankful to have found Mary and will definitely be using her in the future as we go out of town!”
“Bee was great. Was able to get my pups in on short notice. My one dog has fear aggression with some people but was OK for Bee and even warmed up to her. She answered right away when I texted to check in on them. My dogs seemed happy and comfortable when I went to pick them up! Would certainly use her again for future trips if needed.”

“Dana took great care of Loki on our long trip away! He got a little stomach upset (typical for him with routine/environment changes) and she was very attentive, communicative, and helped get him back on track. Everything was really smooth, and Loki always comes back happy & calm :)”

“Kathryn and Jared were great with our female pittie with her 11 day stay. Their dogs welcomed her, and they had a great time just by looking at the pictures they sent. We will definitely use them the next time we go on vacation.”
“Luann was such a perfect fit to watch our Mabel. She is great with dogs, has a beautiful home, and huge fenced yard for outdoor activity. She graciously provided us with pics and videos while we were away which we appreciated. So thoughtful. We will definitely be booking again in the future!”
About: I am a pre-veterinary student with a lifelong love of animals. I grew up caring for three dogs, which taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience working in a veterinary office, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal care, behavior, and safety. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life since I have three dogs of my own. Feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with them is just built into my routine. I genuinely enjoy the structure and joy they bring, and caring for animals has become second nature to me. At home, I keep my dogs on a consistent routine with feeding, walks, play, and grooming. I’ll care for your pets the same way—with love, attention, and reliability, making sure they feel safe and happy while in my care.

“We were extremely pleased with the care and attention that Michelle gave to our dog Dixie. She took great care of our dog and when we came to pick her up, I think Dixie would have been happy to stay longer. The house, the accommodations and the caretaker were perfect for our dog and she was very relaxed when we came to pick her up. Michelle was a very good "fit" for us and Dixie. We definitely would use Michelle again.”

“Vicki and her family treated our Ollie like family! We were so happy with his stay - regular pics and updates helped me feel at ease with being away from our new pup for five days. We knew he was in good hands, and you can sense that Vicki is a true dog lover. She was also flexible with travel delays and patient with my questions. Ollie got lots of attention and time to play in the fenced-in yard. He looks forward to running around again one day with his new buddy, Wyatt, and the family cat! Thank you, Vicki, for welcoming our dear Ollie into your home so warmly!”
“Emily was great, our pups loved her. They seemed well loved and well exercised. She sent pictures of them on their walks and after walk naps. We will definitely be using her again when we visit Johnson City. Highly recommend.”

Since the age I could start walking, I’ve loved animals as my family and have always loved to be around them. I can help keep your babies on their schedules so you can stick to yours too.

Here at my home, you can be assured that I will love them just the same, if not more and keep them on their schedules.

“Great services. Carissa is really patient and thoughtful taking care of my cats. And she always tries best to do all care stuff and asks me if she has any concerns. She sent me many photos during the drop-in visit and my cats are really comfortable with her, even the timid one. I really appreciate her help while I am out of town.

About: Although I have never owned a cat of my own, I absolutely love cats and look forward to caring for yours.

About: My name is Brianna and I’m a kindergarten teacher during the school year and an avid animal lover year-round. I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own. During the summer, weekends, and school breaks, I have extra time to dedicate to giving pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide dependable, compassionate care. I have a 4-year-old Goldendoodle named Winston who has taught me so much about caring for dogs. He’s energetic, loves going to the dog park, enjoys playing with other dogs, and is just as happy curling up for cuddles after a fun day of adventures. Being Winston’s owner has strengthened my love for animals and helped me understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give Winston, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am available any time throughout the summer; my schedule is more flexible during this time. Once the school year begins, I will be available only on weekends. I will maintain the safety of the dog and/or cat at all times. I have great communication skills and will always follow the needs of the dog provided by the owner.
About: About Me & Experience 🐱💛 Hi!! I’m a 30-year-old elementary school teacher and a huge animal lover—especially when it comes to cats 💛 I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve had experience pet sitting for multiple families, including homes with both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, and making sure each pet gets the attention they need. I also understand that every cat is different—some are playful and social, while others are more shy and independent—and I always take a gentle, patient approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. As a teacher, I’m very patient, responsible, and trustworthy. Families trust me every day with their children, and I bring that same level of care and dependability when looking after pets. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to keep your cat’s routine consistent and stress-free. I will treat your cat like they’re my own and make sure they feel relaxed, cared for, and loved while you’re away. ⸻ A Little Extra 🐾 I love sending updates, pictures, and little check-ins so you always feel at ease 😊
“It's abundantly clear how much Sindri truly cares for animals. I hate leaving our elderly and slightly neurotic cat at home, but from the first meet and greet to the very thorough check-in updates, I was actually able to be out of town with minimal anxiety. Sindri's experience really shined with the photos, detailed description of the interaction, and quick responses for each visit. Thank you for taking such excellent care of our meatball!”
About: The picture I have set is actually my own cat King Zoro! That’s my mini bestie. I have had experience with lots of cats throughout my life. Also giving my cat eye drops, bathing and grooming him so he can feel his best! I prefer cats that are easier going but am willing to be around other personalities too.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I've raised dogs from puppies providing training and teaching obedience. Also providing assistance to senior animals. I currently work full time, 4 days a week (6am-5pm) Tues-Fri. I have a very flexible schedule that will allow for local visits and walks during working hours in the Owego area. Outside of working hours I am available in the 15mi radius around Johnson City. Within working hours or near, I am available in the 15mi radius around Owego.

As a full-time special education, teacher and mother of two, I’m available for daytime pet care on holidays and weekends. While my teaching hours limit morning and afternoon availability during the week, I ensure flexible and reliable care during my free time to meet your pet’s needs.

This includes feeding, refreshing water, walks or playtime, administering medicines (if needed), and cleaning up after them.

About: I grew up with a cat and have owned my own for about 2 1/2 years. One of my cats is highly energetic and struggles with anxiety so for any of your pets that need daily medications, I have plenty of experience administering oral medications. I also know that finding a sitter that I trust with my furbabies can be difficult, especially if they’ve only ever worked with dogs. Cats have their own unique needs and language. You want someone who can understand that and having my own kitties gives me that perspective. If you have any questions about how I can meet your cat care needs, please reach out!
About: Hello! I absolutely love cats. I have 4 of my own named Cookie, Bean, Tofu, and Habanero. I have experience watching cats for friends. I have experience giving cats medication. I clean the litter box daily and always make sure there is fresh water. Enrichment is super important so I love playing with cats as well. I’d love to care for your cat/s!
About: I think what sets me apart is all the experience I have had with dogs. We have had dogs since I was a baby. We have had labs, Havanese, mixed breeds and doodles. My family always lived on a farm with tons of animals, so we always had many pups. We have cared from them since they were puppies and when some had cancer and were sick. I will make sure to love and take care of your pup as if they were my own. They will always be in good hands. I work from home, so I am available everyday at any time and weekends! My routine will be around your pups schedule. I will make anything work to make things easier for you. If pets are in my home, they will be comfortable as if it was their own. My yard is fenced in, so they can play in the back. I always have the water bowls filled and will keep them on their food schedule. My dogs sleep in my room with me, so if you don’t mind your pup will have it’s own spot in my room to sleep too!

About: I have had pets most of my life. I quit my job and started a non-profit, St. Lewis Foundation, which didnt work out, so all the animals in my care became my pets. They were mostly senior and unwanted animals, which is where my heart is. I am unemployed right now, looking for remote work . So I am home all day. I have the time to let your pup out as many times as he/she wants. If they are a little dog I will be right by their side. I am up 6a - 9p. I have 3 senior cats that sleep up high most of the day, so your pup needs to be okay with cats. All pups sleep with me in my king size bed (if they want to). I have a dog bed next to me in my office or a couch in front of a large front window. I have locked screen security doors in case your pup likes to sniff the air. Central AC (I like it cool) and heating. I have many balls and treats (if allowed) and would love to throw the ball a bit. Back yard is not huge but sufficient. All my dogs have passed and I am missing a dog so much but cant commit right now. So let me love on your pup!

About: I have had two cats all of my life, while also pet sitting my friends’ dogs when they went out of town. I am very familiar with both cats and dogs and I am happy to hang out with your pet when you cannot be there for them. I am taking a gap year from school so my schedule is fairly flexible. As long as there are set times that are clear I can make it work. Depending on whether you have cats or dogs will change the way I care for your pet in your home. With dogs, there will be more going in and out with walks and with cats I will stay in the home to make sure everything is up to your standards.

I also have lots of experience with puppies (8 weeks and older) as well as high energy dogs and can also provide activities for them. I also have a lot of experience with senior and special needs dogs! I’m overall pretty open to any breed and size and have experience with a range of temperaments. I hope to hear from you and your pet soon! I am currently available anytime to watch your pup! Boarding i am available weekdays and weekends. Sitting and dog sitting i am available weekdays and weekends. Monitoring closely throughout the home. Reinforce positive behavior by providing high value treats to the dogs for positive interactions.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of pets over the years. I enjoy being around animals and showing them love because they do the same for us! I have a genuine love for taking care of things if I can help it and I’m going to school to even become a nurse. I also started a house plant hobby. Taking care of things is just in my blood. I’m available more in the evenings . My schedule is flexible but inconsistent because I’m part time at my jobs but we can discuss availability if you book me to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced in back yard and just one cat. I’m able to keep them separated if needed. I also have my own home and it’s a smoke free one! I’m very clean and clean my home daily. I let my cat on the couches so yours will be allowed the same if they are not dirty of course.
“Dana was on time and stayed for the entirety of our agreed upon arrangement. She was sure to keep me updated and sent pics throughout the day. She even tidied up my apartment! Jace seemed very satisfied by the time I got home. I would definitely book with her again.”
About: My name is Brianna and I’m a kindergarten teacher during the school year and an avid animal lover year-round. I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own. During the summer, weekends, and school breaks, I have extra time to dedicate to giving pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide dependable, compassionate care. I have a 4-year-old Goldendoodle named Winston who has taught me so much about caring for dogs. He’s energetic, loves going to the dog park, enjoys playing with other dogs, and is just as happy curling up for cuddles after a fun day of adventures. Being Winston’s owner has strengthened my love for animals and helped me understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give Winston, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am available any time throughout the summer; my schedule is more flexible during this time. Once the school year begins, I will be available only on weekends. I will maintain the safety of the dog and/or cat at all times. I have great communication skills and will always follow the needs of the dog provided by the owner.
“Amazing! So good with our dog Kingsley. Kingsley gets sad on the days he doesn't get to visit with him! I've recommended David to my co-workers whenever they end up going out of town.”
About: Hi! I’m a college student home for the summer and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I treat every animal with the same care, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to provide updates for peace of mind. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I prioritize regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship to help pets feel comfortable and maintain their routine while their owners are away. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including pets recovering from medical procedures.
About: I’ve raised and trained my dog for 9 years. I have also pet sit for people in my neighborhood. I have pet sit young puppy’s and older dogs and love them all. I am very good at reading dogs cues and adjusting to their needs accordingly. I enjoy catering to each dogs needs and building a walk routine that works for them individually. I am currently taking online asynchronous college courses so I have great flexibility in scheduling and am available Sun-Fri, morning, afternoon and night! I love taking walks and hiking with my dog, and I would love to provide this service for others. I am very attentive and notice dogs moods, needs and wants. I’ve had my dog for 9 years and can read cues easily and learn other dogs cues like I have in the past, quickly.
“Erin was great with Baxter - he loved going on walks with her! Erin is easy to work with and is good at responding to questions and changes in schedule. She’s very friendly and responsible! We’ll definitely book her again in the future!”
About: Starting from a young age I knew I needed to be a pet care provider. Starting in high school I worked at several barns providing care for various livestock and companion animal species alike. While I love our livestock, I find more fulfillment in helping our household pets. I’m currently working on an animal care and behavior degree, and work at an animal hospital. I have experience in giving oral medications (to both dogs and cats) as well as subcutaneous fluids. I’ve managed several complex medication plans and understand how important a regular routine is for our pets. If you think we would be a good fit please reach out with any questions you may have. I do work full-time during work days, however, I can accommodate your pets needs during the day as long as we have clear communication. Aside from my full time work schedule, I’m dedicated to making sure your pets get the highest quality of care possible. Every pet is different! What works for one animal may throw your own pet into a panic and I’m here to make sure we can create a routine for your pet that makes them the most comfortable when you can’t be there. If your dog needs outside time and you don’t have a yard, let’s find the closest park or walking trail! Do your pets become anxious over night? I’ll be there to snuggle their worries away and provide all the pepperoni and churu they could ask for. Whatever your pets needs are, we’ll have an open line for communication throughout their time with me to ensure both you and them are happy.
About: I am a pre-veterinary student with a lifelong love of animals. I grew up caring for three dogs, which taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience working in a veterinary office, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal care, behavior, and safety. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life since I have three dogs of my own. Feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with them is just built into my routine. I genuinely enjoy the structure and joy they bring, and caring for animals has become second nature to me. At home, I keep my dogs on a consistent routine with feeding, walks, play, and grooming. I’ll care for your pets the same way—with love, attention, and reliability, making sure they feel safe and happy while in my care.
About: I think what sets me apart is all the experience I have had with dogs. We have had dogs since I was a baby. We have had labs, Havanese, mixed breeds and doodles. My family always lived on a farm with tons of animals, so we always had many pups. We have cared from them since they were puppies and when some had cancer and were sick. I will make sure to love and take care of your pup as if they were my own. They will always be in good hands. I work from home, so I am available everyday at any time and weekends! My routine will be around your pups schedule. I will make anything work to make things easier for you. If pets are in my home, they will be comfortable as if it was their own. My yard is fenced in, so they can play in the back. I always have the water bowls filled and will keep them on their food schedule. My dogs sleep in my room with me, so if you don’t mind your pup will have it’s own spot in my room to sleep too!

“Our puppy is just like another child to our family. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Steve and could tell she had a great time while we were away. We are thankful to have found this service and will definitely be in contact with them again.”
“During the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.”
“Bee was great. Was able to get my pups in on short notice. My one dog has fear aggression with some people but was OK for Bee and even warmed up to her. She answered right away when I texted to check in on them. My dogs seemed happy and comfortable when I went to pick them up! Would certainly use her again for future trips if needed.”
“Dana took great care of Loki on our long trip away! He got a little stomach upset (typical for him with routine/environment changes) and she was very attentive, communicative, and helped get him back on track. Everything was really smooth, and Loki always comes back happy & calm :)”
“Kathryn and Jared were great with our female pittie with her 11 day stay. Their dogs welcomed her, and they had a great time just by looking at the pictures they sent. We will definitely use them the next time we go on vacation.”
“Luann was such a perfect fit to watch our Mabel. She is great with dogs, has a beautiful home, and huge fenced yard for outdoor activity. She graciously provided us with pics and videos while we were away which we appreciated. So thoughtful. We will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Vicki and her family treated our Ollie like family! We were so happy with his stay - regular pics and updates helped me feel at ease with being away from our new pup for five days. We knew he was in good hands, and you can sense that Vicki is a true dog lover. She was also flexible with travel delays and patient with my questions. Ollie got lots of attention and time to play in the fenced-in yard. He looks forward to running around again one day with his new buddy, Wyatt, and the family cat! Thank you, Vicki, for welcoming our dear Ollie into your home so warmly!”
“Emily was great, our pups loved her. They seemed well loved and well exercised. She sent pictures of them on their walks and after walk naps. We will definitely be using her again when we visit Johnson City. Highly recommend.”
About: All the animals we have in this world deserve the love and care I am more than excited to provide. Your pet will be in the best hands of this animal whisperer. Since the age I could start walking, I’ve loved animals as my family and have always loved to be around them. I can help keep your babies on their schedules so you can stick to yours too. There is plenty of time for me to get out and about with your faithful companion. I will be able to give them long walks and plenty of time to play. In your home, I can play with your dog with their toys and if you have a yard, we can play fetch and lay out in the sun. Here at my home, you can be assured that I will love them just the same, if not more and keep them on their schedules.
“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter for my babies. My two have their own quirks and she and her partner did so great at taking good care of them and learning about them.”
“This was the first time we boarded Gus so we were a little nervous leaving our baby. But we didn’t need to worry as he was so well taken care of! He seemed very comfortable, and came home extra sleepy from playing so much. I would absolutely have Gus stay again with Elizabeth!”
About: For nearly 20years I’ve been caring for animals of all types. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Rodents, Reptiles, and just about everything in between. Family, Friends, Neighbors, Co-Workers and Clients have relied on me to care for their furry family members & I’ve had furry family members of my own my whole life. I have worked with all ages and sizes, and am comfortable with pets with disabilities or medical needs. For the past 16years I’ve cared for people with disabilities as a Direct Support Professional. I am currently doing that as a part-time night shift, so I am available most days and eves, during the week and on weekends! I have loved many forms of my own pets and understand the importance of safety and trust that comes with caring for another’s loved one. I currently plan to do pet walking, play dates, and sitting in your home. May consider overnight stays. May consider boarding on case by case basis. Always open for requests, and again, will consider on a case by case basis.
“What can I say about Lorinda? She provided exceptional care for my two dogs on a two week private at home boarding at her house. Her communication and responsiveness was 10 out of 10. She was incredibly flexible and helpful with logistics and some special accommodations we needed. When the state got extended and the dogs ran out of food, she was kind enough to go to two different stores to pick up what they like. She is very professional and reliable, and I feel very comfortable being out of the country, knowing that my dogs are with her.”
“Joelene was awesome. She kept us informed with pictures while we were away every day and let us know if as situation(s) came up. We would definitely use her again if the need comes up.”
