“Lindsey did an amazing job caring for our dogs, Cookie and Rocco, while we were out of town for two nights. She kept in touch throughout their stay, sent plenty of photos and updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were busy purchasing a home in New York. It was clear that Cookie and Rocco were well cared for, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. Lindsey was reliable, communicative, and genuinely seemed to enjoy spending time with them. We could not have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely trust Lindsey with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter! As dog parents, leaving our babies behind is never easy, but Lindsey made the whole experience stress-free.”
“Sarah was wonderful! We received update photos every day and our pup came home clearly well cared for and happy after over a week of being away. We were worried about our small dog being around her larger ones, but she arranged a meet and greet prior to taking King Tut. Her dogs were sweet and gentle with him. During the week we got photos of all three happily cuddled together. Would recommend Sarah S. and would definitely return should we need a dog-sitter!”
“Polina is a nice intelligent person. I highly recommend her. I left my puppy for 9 nights and Polina kept in touch all the time about how my puppy is and what my puppy is doing. She really takes good care of my puppy, by walking him every 3 hours and feeding him as I asked her to. When I came to pick the puppy up, I found that the puppy was very happy, vitally joyful, and very active.”
“Huijun and her husband took excellent care of my boys, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept me updated every single day by sending videos and messages, letting me know when they had dinner and when they were settled in for the night. It gave me so much peace of mind to see how comfortable and well cared for they were. In one of the videos, I saw her giving one of my boys cuddles, and he was clearly loving the attention, which meant a lot to me. I had sent them with a full bag of their belongings, and everything was returned exactly as I left it, which I really appreciated. On top of that, my flight ended up being delayed, and they were incredibly understanding and accommodating with the change in timing. Their flexibility and kindness truly stood out. Overall, I was extremely happy with the level of care and attention my boys received. I would absolutely trust them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Rachel was excellent!! She sent me so many photos of Betty having a good time with her dog, as well some content of Betty lounging around with her kids. I felt at ease my whole trip because I could tell my dog was cared for and most of all, happy. I would for sure book with Rachel again!”
“Dan and Teresa have been very accommodating, Teresa keep good communication with me on how sila was doing. They were very flexible with me due to personal matters, but always kept good communication.”
About: I have been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for many years, and caring for both cats and dogs has always been a true passion of mine. I understand that pets are beloved family members, each with their own unique personalities, routines, and needs, and I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. I am dependable, compassionate, and attentive to detail. Whether your pet is an energetic dog, a playful cat, a shy rescue, or a senior or special-needs companion, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My experience with rescue animals and special-needs pets has taught me to be especially patient and observant, allowing me to quickly notice changes in behavior or health. Nothing makes me happier than earning an animal’s trust and ensuring they receive exceptional care while their family is away. My goal is to provide not only outstanding care for your pets, but also complete peace of mind for you. As a full-time high school teacher, I maintain a structured and dependable schedule, working from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM during the school year. This allows me to provide pet visits during the midday, if needed, and dedicated walks and care immediately after the school day. Caring for animals is an important part of my daily life. I share my home with two dogs, who enjoy their walks as soon as I return home, as well as my cats, who are part of my evening routine. This firsthand experience as a pet owner helps me understand the importance of consistency, exercise, affection, and attentive care. In addition to my availability during the school year, I have school vacations, holidays, and summers off, which provides greater flexibility to accommodate your schedule and your pets' needs. I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate, and professional care so you can feel confident that your pets are in excellent hands. I provide attentive, personalized care in your home so that your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their regular routines. I understand that consistency is important for reducing stress and helping pets feel secure while their families are away. During each visit, I ensure that your pets have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. For dogs, this includes walks, outdoor breaks, and interactive play tailored to their energy level and needs. For cats, I provide feeding, litter box maintenance, enrichment, and quiet companionship on their terms. I am experienced in caring for rescue, senior, and special-needs pets, including administering oral medications when needed. I take the time to observe each pet’s behavior and overall well-being, and I will promptly communicate any concerns. I also respect your home and will keep feeding areas, litter boxes, and pet spaces clean and tidy. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving loving, professional care.
“Ginny had a great time with Leanna. They spent three days together and Ginny was all waggy tailed when we returned. Leanna was communicative during Ginnys stay and we knew what was going on at all times. We were very pleased with her calm demeanor and patient attitude. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley was great with our dog, Oreo! She was super flexible when we weren't able to come back to town as early as we wanted and sent us updates with pictures. She was also very active with our pup -taking him for walks and to the park. I will definitely go to Ashley the next time we need a sitter!”
“Tiffany did a great job taking care of my pup for 3 days. She’s got a great fenced in yard to play in, she took her for walks & sent plenty of pics & updates. My dog & hers got along great; we’ll definitely use Tiffany again. I highly recommend Tiffany to take care of your pup!”
“Donna is an amazing woman with the dogs in her care. Our senior Sophia stayed with Donna recently- instead of being scared, we saw that she made new doggie friends, explored the beautiful yard, roamed the deck like it was her own. She was a happy camper! Thank you so very much Donna.”
“Jocelyn ha been amazing! She is very responsive and keeps me informed all the way thru each pet- sitting experience with photos and texts throughout the day. She is so loving with my girl and always takes such good care of her! Highly recommend!!”
About: I have had dogs since I was a child and love them all. I treat them like they are my children. They are loved to the moon and back. I am almost retired so I have all kinds of time to take care of your baby. I love to let them run in the fenced in yard. I have a fenced in back yard. We also have a gate on our front porch for them to just longe around and people watch.
“Amazing amazing amazing service from Margaret she took care of my babies(kittens named noodles and ghost) for a week and a half and they had a great time updates(cute pictures) were sent often and she even picked them up and dropped them off back to me within the area. Margaret helped me out so much and I couldn’t be happier with her services if you ever need to book with someone to take care of your babies choose her”
“Georgianne was so responsive and easy to work with. She handled both of my cats with ease and was just an overall wonderful person. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Tia took great care of my Sushi boy over the holidays. It was a last minute request and she was more than happy to accommodate even during the busy holiday season. She made him feel like a part of their pack. Sushi has some anxieties around new people and new dogs, and she was willing to work with him to make sure he felt safe and comfortable. I cannot recommend Tia enough. Thank you so much!”
About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I truly love spending time with dogs—playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I have a friendly cocker spaniel named Stevie who loves other dogs, and we offer a cozy, welcoming home for overnight stays where your pup will be treated like part of the family. I currently work full time. I’m up early every morning with my dog before I head into to work - I go home on lunch every day to let her out. I work close to home so if I need to run home, it only takes a minute. I have a fenced in yard. During the day the dog can be free in the house or if you prefer to have them created, we have a large crate.
“Very vigilant about Dottie’s wellbeing & making sure everything was in order. Took several pictures that my husband and I greatly enjoyed. Hopefully we won’t have to travel again soon but if we do we will certainly be booking Ashley again. Absolutely recommend 🩶”
About: What sets me apart is my extensive experience as a dedicated cat owner and caregiver, with extensive hands-on experience caring for rescue, senior, and special-needs cats. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to earn their trust and provide calm, compassionate care tailored to their needs. I am experienced in administering oral medications and providing attentive care to cats with medical or behavioral challenges. Having cared for rescue cats, I’m especially patient with shy, anxious, or newly adopted cats who may need extra understanding and gentle handling. I also believe that excellent cat care goes beyond feeding and playtime. I keep litter boxes meticulously clean, monitor eating, drinking, and behavior closely, and provide detailed updates so you can feel confident that your cat is safe, comfortable, and well loved while you’re away.
“Mandee watched our cat Spaghetti while we were on vacation and I couldn't have asked for a better person for the job. I received updates and pictures daily and she was quick to answer any questions I had.”

“Anna was a wonderful pet sitter! She was very kind, caring, and attentive to my two cats and two guinea pigs, and I could tell she really took the time to make sure they were well taken care of. She also spent plenty of time playing with my cats, which I really appreciated. Anna was very responsive whenever we needed to text her about something, and overall she made the whole experience feel easy and reassuring. I would definitely rebook with her!”

I also have recall training leashes available to allow the dog to run around and play while still safely being on leash. As for care in your home, I will utilize any items/devices you ask, i.e. special training collars, leashes, e-collar devices (I have experience with these as I use them on my own dogs). I take the animals safety very seriously and am always open and willing to meet your needs, whatever that may be.

I pay close attention to detail and follow any direction of taking care of your dog/routines. For boarders I have a back yard and we go on walks often around the neighborhood!
“Our dogs were well cared for and tired out when we picked them up! Extra attention was given to special dietary instructions for one of them and pick up and drop off was efficient. We were glad to use them again and know they were in good hands!”
About: I have owned many dogs over the years plus have over 7 years in the dog rescue business.

“Daylin and Mary took excellent daycare of our dog Bocce this past Saturday. During the day, they sent pictures and videos of Bocce playing in the yard with their dog.

Your home will look exactly the same as it did when you left. Possibly even clear than when you left.
“Mariana is an absolutely amazing dog sitter. Not only did she take great care of Mocha, but she gave me many tips on different training methods I can use on Mocha. On top of all that, she took many cute pictures and videos of my dog that she shared with me through the day. I felt at ease leaving my dog there seeing how Mariana treated her. Mocha definitely had a great day with her and will be looking forward to seeing her again.”
“She was awesome! We were in town for the weekend, needed a sitter for Max for Saturday, and she was able to accommodate us. Will definitely go back when we come back to Syracruse! Max had fun and slept like a baby that night lol She was easy to reach by text, responded in an appropriate amount of time, and her property was away from the road, giving us piece of mind. Highly recommend.”

About: I have cared for cats and dogs since I was young! I also can care for mice, bunnies, rats, and other animals, just message me!

Animals with special needs are also not a problem for me! I’ve cared for multiple cats and dogs with special needs including diabetes, manual bladder expressions, and mobility/paralysis issues. I’m currently home from college for the summer (Vet Tech Student) and am looking for jobs that allow me to keep working around animals during this time! I follow instructions given by the owner and often send pictures as updates of how the babies are doing! I can crate, walk, feed, water, play with, and bathe animals (if needed). I also can trim nails if asked! I can send pictures after as proof I didn’t quick them to ensure safety and trust between both you and I, as well as your pet and I!
About: We have two dogs of our own: Henry and Bailey. They are adopted and when we got them they were living with other dogs and were used to being around other dogs. We used Rover with our dog Max who passed away a few years ago. We would like to start caring for dogs and our dog Henry LOVES to have another dog to play with. Bailey will play too but she's just more into affection than play. My husband and I have been dog owners for most of our lives. I am going to be home much of the time and on weekends we will both be at home to care for your dog. We will make sure your dog feels comfortable and happy! I am very much a dog lover and will also keep you updated on your dog's visit. I tutor so I am only gone for an hour at a time. But never for more than an hour and a half. My husband also has some days where he works from home. Our backyard is fenced in, we have a nice quiet neighborhood to walk in. We are dog lovers and dog owners our whole lives!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. Once I realized I could make my love for animals into a career I jumped at that! In NY I became a veterinarian assistant and fell in love with that field of work! In my future I will be going to school to become a veterinary technician. I am also certified in cat and dog first aid and CPR. Currently rover is my only job so I am home almost all the time. I am very flexible and will always try to make things work out! I have one dachshund and a cat to keep your fur babies company. I have a small-medium sized crate if needed, and we’ll make sure to have plenty of play time!!! Unfortunately with me living on base I will not be able to accept pit bulls, Rottweilers, Cane Corsos, and candid/wolf hybrid’s. I do hope to change this once we move off base!!!😁
“I’m so happy I found Kaylee to help me walk and take care of my two dogs. I had just gotten a puppy 2 month old and the puppy is a handful! Kaylee is great with the puppy, so patient and very kind! I have total trust with her. Kaylee goes above and beyond to help me when I need her:) I would definitely recommend Kaylee to help out with your pets needs:)”
About: Having been through a fairly traumatic dog attack myself, I made it my mission to learn all about dog's behavior and why they do what they do. I have studied different ways of training and learning how to react to certain situations with them. I promise to love and give all the fun play time, cuddle time, and attention to your favorite furry friend! Your doggy can sleep in my bed and hang out on the couch. If you are anything like me, your dog is your best friend and child! I had an amazing female Boston Terrier who lived to 13 1/2. I am versed in care of elderly dogs. My new venture is a deaf puppy. We are learning hand signals for training. He is very friendly and loves to make new friends. If you have any questions about what I'm willing to do, or can and can't do, please don't hesitate to ask me! I work for a family business, and can bring my dog to work. Therefore, your pup will be able to come to work with me! I will love your baby as if it was my own. Dogs will always be leashed outside. They are allowed on furniture here and are welcome to snuggle anytime! But if you have different rules , please tell me so I can abide by them.
About: Hello, My name is Morgan, I have grown up in a very pet friendly home over the past 30 years. I have had animals for as long as I can remember. Including dogs, cats, horses, goats, birds, lizzards, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc. :) I have provided pet care for multiple people in my area over the past many years and just absolutely find it so fulfilling! Animals are a huge part of my life and bring me so much joy. In my opinion, there is no better job than that of animal caretaking. I am always open to any job that needs to be done. I can pet sit in my own home or I can go to you. I firmly believe that an animal is best kept at home where they are most comfortable. I have house/pet sat the majority of my side career and have found my customers to be very satisfied in the end. I even farm sit (horses, goats, sheep, etc) and and can do all the feeding, mucking, turning out and turning in! Lifelong experience with small animals and 27 years experience with large (horses, goats, cows) animals. All the above is just my quick profile. If you need to know more, feel free to get a hold of me! Thanks! -Morgan I’m currently only working part-time so I have lots of time to play with your pups, cats, etc! My schedule is very open usually after 10-11 am M-F. Weekends I’m off of work. My yard is not fenced in but I ALWAYS leash any dog that stays with me while we are outside. I also have recall training leashes available to allow the dog to run around and play while still safely being on leash. As for care in your home, I will utilize any items/devices you ask, i.e. special training collars, leashes, e-collar devices (I have experience with these as I use them on my own dogs). I take the animals safety very seriously and am always open and willing to meet your needs, whatever that may be.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. I’ve spent time providing quality animal care for dogs and cats for multiple clients over the years. I’m currently working full-time. I am looking to fulfill a passion of mine, by being with animals more often. I’m looking forward to becoming more active. I have a half acre of land for dogs to roam on. I live on a private drive which makes walks easy and safe, as traffic is limited. I have plenty of space for a crate, if needed.
“Cassandra did a great job walking our dog. She was flexible in her scheduling and timely in her responses. Due to the hot weather, she wisely provided water and shade breaks which I appreciated. Thank you Cassandra, I will use you again in the future!”

“Lindsey did an amazing job caring for our dogs, Cookie and Rocco, while we were out of town for two nights. She kept in touch throughout their stay, sent plenty of photos and updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were busy purchasing a home in New York. It was clear that Cookie and Rocco were well cared for, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. Lindsey was reliable, communicative, and genuinely seemed to enjoy spending time with them. We could not have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely trust Lindsey with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter! As dog parents, leaving our babies behind is never easy, but Lindsey made the whole experience stress-free.”
“Sarah was wonderful! We received update photos every day and our pup came home clearly well cared for and happy after over a week of being away. We were worried about our small dog being around her larger ones, but she arranged a meet and greet prior to taking King Tut. Her dogs were sweet and gentle with him. During the week we got photos of all three happily cuddled together. Would recommend Sarah S. and would definitely return should we need a dog-sitter!”
“Huijun and her husband took excellent care of my boys, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept me updated every single day by sending videos and messages, letting me know when they had dinner and when they were settled in for the night. It gave me so much peace of mind to see how comfortable and well cared for they were. In one of the videos, I saw her giving one of my boys cuddles, and he was clearly loving the attention, which meant a lot to me. I had sent them with a full bag of their belongings, and everything was returned exactly as I left it, which I really appreciated. On top of that, my flight ended up being delayed, and they were incredibly understanding and accommodating with the change in timing. Their flexibility and kindness truly stood out. Overall, I was extremely happy with the level of care and attention my boys received. I would absolutely trust them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Rachel was excellent!! She sent me so many photos of Betty having a good time with her dog, as well some content of Betty lounging around with her kids. I felt at ease my whole trip because I could tell my dog was cared for and most of all, happy. I would for sure book with Rachel again!”
“Dan and Teresa have been very accommodating, Teresa keep good communication with me on how sila was doing. They were very flexible with me due to personal matters, but always kept good communication.”
About: I have been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for many years, and caring for both cats and dogs has always been a true passion of mine. I understand that pets are beloved family members, each with their own unique personalities, routines, and needs, and I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. I am dependable, compassionate, and attentive to detail. Whether your pet is an energetic dog, a playful cat, a shy rescue, or a senior or special-needs companion, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My experience with rescue animals and special-needs pets has taught me to be especially patient and observant, allowing me to quickly notice changes in behavior or health. Nothing makes me happier than earning an animal’s trust and ensuring they receive exceptional care while their family is away. My goal is to provide not only outstanding care for your pets, but also complete peace of mind for you. As a full-time high school teacher, I maintain a structured and dependable schedule, working from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM during the school year. This allows me to provide pet visits during the midday, if needed, and dedicated walks and care immediately after the school day. Caring for animals is an important part of my daily life. I share my home with two dogs, who enjoy their walks as soon as I return home, as well as my cats, who are part of my evening routine. This firsthand experience as a pet owner helps me understand the importance of consistency, exercise, affection, and attentive care. In addition to my availability during the school year, I have school vacations, holidays, and summers off, which provides greater flexibility to accommodate your schedule and your pets' needs. I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate, and professional care so you can feel confident that your pets are in excellent hands. I provide attentive, personalized care in your home so that your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their regular routines. I understand that consistency is important for reducing stress and helping pets feel secure while their families are away. During each visit, I ensure that your pets have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. For dogs, this includes walks, outdoor breaks, and interactive play tailored to their energy level and needs. For cats, I provide feeding, litter box maintenance, enrichment, and quiet companionship on their terms. I am experienced in caring for rescue, senior, and special-needs pets, including administering oral medications when needed. I take the time to observe each pet’s behavior and overall well-being, and I will promptly communicate any concerns. I also respect your home and will keep feeding areas, litter boxes, and pet spaces clean and tidy. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving loving, professional care.
“Ashley was great with our dog, Oreo! She was super flexible when we weren't able to come back to town as early as we wanted and sent us updates with pictures. She was also very active with our pup -taking him for walks and to the park. I will definitely go to Ashley the next time we need a sitter!”
“Tiffany did a great job taking care of my pup for 3 days. She’s got a great fenced in yard to play in, she took her for walks & sent plenty of pics & updates. My dog & hers got along great; we’ll definitely use Tiffany again. I highly recommend Tiffany to take care of your pup!”
About: I have had dogs since I was a child and love them all. I treat them like they are my children. They are loved to the moon and back. I am almost retired so I have all kinds of time to take care of your baby. I love to let them run in the fenced in yard. I have a fenced in back yard. We also have a gate on our front porch for them to just longe around and people watch.
“Amazing amazing amazing service from Margaret she took care of my babies(kittens named noodles and ghost) for a week and a half and they had a great time updates(cute pictures) were sent often and she even picked them up and dropped them off back to me within the area. Margaret helped me out so much and I couldn’t be happier with her services if you ever need to book with someone to take care of your babies choose her”
About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)
“Molly and Nikola were wonderful! We haven’t left our fur baby Josie with anyone in over 5 years and we’re very nervous but Molly and Nikola kept us up to date often and took Josie on fun adventures. When we picked her up nearly a week later she didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!!”
“Tana and Michael took great care of Phoebe for her weekend stay. Phoebe really enjoyed all of her cuddles and attention as well as having a doggie pal while there. We know Phoebe will always be in good hands with them!”
“My dog had such a wonderful time!! Ashley is amazing she sent cute pictures all night when she had him and kept me updated on how he was doing. He played and played with the other pups she was boarding at the time and we definitely be rebooking with her next time we need to go somewhere ??❤️❤️”
“Wonderful dog sitter. I had absolutely no concern when I dropped off my Labrador, except that she might like him more than me 😊. He was very flexible taking in my dog over Easter weekend with less than a day of notice because I had to be in the hospital for surgery on very short notice. I appreciate what he did and I know my dog enjoyed her stay!”
“Andrew and his wife took excellent care of our dog over the weekend. It was his first time staying with them, so they sent me several updates and photos to let me know how he was doing. When we picked him up, they sent me home with a handwritten note, dog treats, and a new chew toy. A very thoughtful finishing touch!”
“Grace only stayed for one day, but I’m pretty sure she had a great time. Elizabeth seems very caring and responsible with her daycare and boarding. We will definitely use her again.”
