“Both Kimberly and Chris were very easy to make arrangements with, and their two happy dogs are a great reference! I had peace of mind leaving Murphy there, and the photos Kimberly sent of the dogs hanging out were great. They are nice people that love animals and I think Murphy had a great time with them. They were also really accommodating in terms of working with our plans/needs, which was so helpful. ”

Cat caregivers near you - Macedon
About: Up until around age 10, we had multiple cats in our home of all types and ages. One distinct example was an elderly cat named Socks who we adopted after her owner passed. Socks only liked the presence of my mom at the time but it was a great learning experience regarding the boundaries of certain animals and understanding that they are all worthy of love even if they might not show that love back right away! I now have had a small Tortishell cat named Nyx since 2022 and often cat sit for our friend who has a large formerly outdoor cat of which breed she is not entirely sure.
“Sharon and James were wonderful. From a great meet and greet where they asked lots of questions about our cats, to check-ins with pix-- they even managed to get our super-shy kitties to come out-- everything was spot-on. We were attending a memorial for my mom, and it was so nice to know the cats were well looked after. I would definitely look to Sharon and James again in the future.”

Our cat was obsessed with Sophie from the meet and greet, and we could tell from the updates we received she remained throughly happy ☺️ We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

If I ever need to travel again I will definitely reach out to Geoff again to take care of my Pixel. P.S. Geoff also took the best photos of Pixel and sent them to me. She looked like a cat model ?”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Macedon
About: I’ve owned and cared for many types of animals throughout my life. I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, some birds and reptiles. I am my family’s and neighbors go-to pet sitter. I am looking forward to taking care of your loved pet as well! As a full time caregiver, my schedule can be flexible to fit your specific pet sitting needs. I have a 3 year old Shepard/ Husky mix and a cat that likes to keep to himself. I'd love to stick to your routine as much as possible. If boarding with me, it is important all animals get along and are kid friendly. Please provide any toys/blankets that may help comfort your pup while they stay. Outside time can be on a leash in the backyard, a troll down the sidewalk, or a trip to the park.
“If you're looking for the ultimate dog boarding experience, look no further than Jeffery! I can't express how relieved I was to find him when I faced an unexpected family emergency and needed a dog sitter for my beloved Coco. My initial hesitation about leaving my child with a stranger melted away the moment Jeffery responded to my request. From our first interaction, it was clear that Jeffery is not just a dog sitter; he’s a true dog whisperer! He took the time to explain his approach, making sure I felt comfortable with every detail of his care routine. His understanding of canine body language is impressive, and it gave me peace of mind knowing that Coco would be in good hands. One of the standout features of Jeffery's dog boarding service is the sheer amount of toys and stimulation he provides. Coco was surrounded by a variety of engaging activities that kept him mentally and physically active. Whether it was playing fetch, exploring new toys, or making new furry friends, she was constantly entertained! Throughout her stay, Jeffery kept the lines of communication open, sending me regular updates, photos, and videos of Coco having a blast! It was heartwarming to see her so happy and engaged. His dedication to ensuring that every dog feels at home shines through in everything he does. If you're considering dog boarding or daycare, I HIGHLY recommend booking Jeffery. Your pup will not only be well cared for but will also have an adventure filled with fun and stimulation! I can’t thank Jeffery enough for his exceptional service, and I’ll definitely be returning whenever I need a dog sitter. Your dog will love it, just like Coco did! 🐾❤️”

“Kate gave excellent care to my two dogs for two days and was super friendly, communicative and responsive.

I highly recommend Kate for dog-care in the Canandaigua area!”
“Fiona had her first day at Garrisons doggy daycare and she came back tired and happy!

I received updates from garrison and pictures and videos. We will definitely be a repeat client! Thanks so much Garrison!”

I have over 12 years of experience caring for various animals including bunnies, bearded dragons, dogs, cats, and fish. My specialty is caring for dogs and cats including those that are needing medicine (by injection or pill), are seniors, or have special needs. I am also a frequent petsitter for foster dogs so I have lots of experience with dogs that have emotional and behavioral issues and the patience and care it takes while they learn what it means to be loved again. I look forward to setting up a meet and greet with you and your furry friends! I will make sure that your pets feel comfortable and safe just as you would and I cant wait to give them lots of love!
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes my entire life! I grew up with a miniature dachshund, lived next door to huskies, pet-sat for friends and family (mostly pit bull mixes), and even get to host my sister’s Golden Retriever puppy for doggy daycare. And now, I have my own fur baby, Axl, a 55-lb Pit Bull Terrier mix! 🐾 If there’s a dog in the room, you can bet I’m the person on the floor giving them all the attention. Loving animals has always been in my nature, and when you trust your dog with me, you can rest assured they’ll be treated like part of my family. I’m absolutely obsessed with my own dog, so I understand just how important it is to know your furry friend is getting plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends (and you)! 🐶❤️ My schedule is extremely flexible as I work toward getting my business up and running over the coming months. I’m hoping to be there for your pets whenever and however I can! Whether you need a quick drop-in, a walk, some extra playtime, or someone to keep your pup company while you’re away, I’d love to help. 🐾 I know how much peace of mind comes from knowing your pet is in good hands, and I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s individual needs to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. Simply put, pets are part of our family around here. They’re not just animals—they are a huge part of our lives! My mission is to make sure you feel as comfortable as possible while your pets are in my care. For drop-ins, walks, or playtime, I am able to easily adjust to whatever your dog is used to or your care preferences. I also have enough experience with dogs to be able to manage their behaviors by instinct and provide safe, attentive care. At our home, we have a fenced-in yard with an in-ground pool and a sun deck—perfect for pups who enjoy swimming and relaxing outdoors. My dog, Axl, does best with female or smaller dogs. An initial meet-and-greet between dogs is required before any doggy daycare stays.
“We have been rebooking Geoff for the last few weeks because he has been such a huge help with our dog (Boomer). He's very considerate and always refills Boomer's food/water bowls when needed. He is really good at informing us if anything out of the ordinary happens and overall good at communication. I love seeing the rover card and knowing they went on a nice walk and Boomer got plenty of exercise. Plus, he takes great pictures of Boomer. I highly recommend booking Geoff for any of the services he offers!”

“Both Kimberly and Chris were very easy to make arrangements with, and their two happy dogs are a great reference! I had peace of mind leaving Murphy there, and the photos Kimberly sent of the dogs hanging out were great. They are nice people that love animals and I think Murphy had a great time with them. They were also really accommodating in terms of working with our plans/needs, which was so helpful. ”
“Kate was amazing throughout our entire experience with Rover! She communicated with us at all times, sent us pictures & videos and made sure our dog was comfortable during the entire stay. She definitely went above and beyond, we highly recommend Kate! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone and even using the app, and we had a great first experience.”
“Sierra was wonderful with our dogs! She sent us daily pictures and updates which was absolutely perfect especially since I sometimes forgot to ask! But in every picture or even the one video our dogs were having a blast, she was so professional and nice! Would definitely rebook!!”
“I am so thankful I found Samantha to watch my high energy pup when my family went on vacation recently. She and her husband were so good with my guy. She was also very responsive to my constant checking in and sent tons of pictures and videos. I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing care for their fur babies. She was a true Godsend.”
“The best person i could ever imagined. It was my first time letting someone to look after my cat and I was worried but Anthony made the experience very easy and loving. So much care and emotion my cat received. I hight recommend it, thank you Anthony <3”
“Would highly recommend and use Joely and Carson again! Great communication, very accommodating and consistent updates with pictures. I think my dog is still sad that she had to leave, but I will absolutely use them in the future.”
“Tammy took great care of my little man! Her home is so welcoming and plenty of space for the pups to run around! I could tell he was very spoiled at her place! I'm so happy to have found a spot ill be able to take him all the time that I can trust!”
“Sam was the best! Very accommodating and you know that she cares about animals. Treated my dog Jaxie like her own and I could tell she was loved and had a great time away from home. First time using this service and my expectations were blown away, will definitely rebook with Sam in the future! Would give more than 5 stars if possible.”
“Brittani provided wonderful care to our energetic doodle when we recently passed through town. She sent photos and it was clear that our dog felt very comfortable in her home. Thank you, Brittani!”
“He did an amazing job! Sent pictures every day, took my very energetic dog on long walks, she came back such a calm dog. Accepted my late request and was a life saver!”
“Thomas was amazing! He sent lots of pictures of fun adventures each day, and was flexible with us when our flight got delayed and we had to change when we were picking our dog up.”
“Our dog loved Brian & Kathleen and their home too! They were very friendly and easy to communicate with. They are very responsible and concerned about the safety of the dogs they care for. We would definitely book with them again and will recommend them to anyone who needs a good home to board their dog.”
“Cara and Dan were wonderful with Murphy! They handled his quirks and kept us up to date with photos. Murphy can be an anxious dog, but he came home happy! We love that they only accept 1 booking at a time and allow the dogs to feel at home with them. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cara & Dan to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“This is a great family home for my dog -- she loved boarding here. Aaron take all your special needs and indulgences into consideration and provides plenty of play opportunities. Just what my little doodle needs!”
“When we came to pick up Lady she was very calm and after greeting us she casually walked around the property. She seemed quite comfortable and rolled in the grass which is quite normal for her. A couple geese walked past her and she didn’t even give them a nod. Communication with Jeffery is excellent and we will definitely use his location again. It’s nice to have a place where our Lady isn’t so confined.”
“Lauren & Justin were wonderful with our dog! We received updates and pictures regularly and didn’t worry about him for a second! Overall, we felt he was being very well taken care of and we’ll definitely call them again.”
