“It appears Nicholas enjoyed his time with Mary too much! He has been moping around the house getting used to a home without more people and pets. It was great receiving daily pictures and the care couldn’t have been more loving. I will definitely try to book with Mary whenever I travel in the future.”
“Ashley took great care and updated me everyday about my dog. She was so patient with my puppy to ensure that she adjusted well to the new environment. Very effective communication and I felt so grateful for having her and her family to board my girl while I travel.”
“Our dog Kristoff always has a wonderful time. This was his first overnight and we picked him up happy and well. It’s great to know we have somewhere safe and fun for him to go when we travel.”
“I cannot recommend Polina enough! She's reliable, responsive, and wonderful with dogs. She's like a dog whisperer! My puppy was well cared for and loved, he seemed so relaxed with her and happy when I picked him up. I would definitely use her again, don't hesitate!”
“Caterina proved to be the perfect sitter for my senior dog Max. She sent updates and it was evident that she truly cares about what she does. Max came home happy and energetic—not always the case with some boarding kennels. I cannot recommend her more highly, and Max and I look forward to his staying with her again.”
“Charlie came back happy and healthy! Susan kept us well updated without needing to prompt, which was much appreciated while we were tied up on vacation it was nice to see he was being well cared for.”
“One of the big reason why I decided to go with Arya for my 3 year old Lab, Bubbles, is the way he explicitly explained about the expectations and facts, how we as customers should expect him to host. Hosting a pup may be easy but understanding the psyche, taking measures to ensure all dogs are safe needs skills and that sets Arya apart. Few weeks before hosting, I took Bubbles for a meet and greet, only with Arya. He introduced Enzo and Igor to me as well, but, only after Bubbles was in the car. It gave me a wonderful feeling how much he cared about not just his pups but mine too. The stay- Arya is a brilliant and talented host and has been updating me with many videos and pictures about the walks, food and stays. He diligently walked Bubbles everyday. As Bubbles is a black lab, he was being mindful of the heat and took him out for walks at night. I was impressed how much he cares and loves the pups he is boarding. Overall it was a great experience and I am sure Bubbles will love to spend more time with Arya. I would highly recommend Arya for your pups. I have already decided to go with Arya and use his services henceforth.”
“Chantal was amazing with my pets! She kept me updated the entire time and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. They came back happy and well taken care of. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Nina was a lifesaver! She was able to schedule a meet and greet, and book our dog for the weekend with short notice. She was very communicative. We received updates, and pictures, which was so appreciated. Our dog seemed very content during his stay with Nina. We are looking forward to using her again!”
“Meghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.”
“Destiny took such good care of my Opie. Her home environment seemed comforting/spacious for him and she made sure he got multiple walks a day. She sent lots of pictures, little updates, and made sure to ask questions about behaviors she wasn't sure about.”
“Huijun was communicative and thoughtful in caring for my pup! I felt comfortable knowing she was well taken care of! She was also willing to care of my pup on short notice, which I was very appreciative of.”
“I can’t say enough about how Christine and Matthew made me feel so comfortable leaving Riley with them when we were out of town! They kept me updated on how she was doing every day. When we arrived to pick her up, I thought she might want to stay!”
“Kiera took such wonderful care of my senior guy! I dropped him off at her home while I moved into my new place and I had such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Kiera sent me pics and videos of Chico playing and out on walks with her sweet senior girl! I will definitely bring Chico back to Kiera’s in the future.”
“Yakelin is a miracle worker! She was not only available last minute, but was expertly qualified to handle our 2 husky puppies! The most impressive part is that they came back even more well behaved than when we dropped them off! I wish I could leave 100 stars!!!”
“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!”

“Anastasia is an outstanding sitter who was available on short notice and was able to care for Stanley very well. He can be a difficult cat but she won him over despite some very loud meowy protests. Would recommend to anyone for cat care”
“Jamie was such a wonderful friend to my sweet dog, Bernice. This was Bernices first time home alone for such a long stretch. And Jamie really went out of her way to comfort her. And she managed to get Bernice outside and playing. Jamie is truly the best!”
“Abby was an amazing caregiver to our elder high needs cat, Ringo! She did an amazing job keeping us updated, administering meds, and playing with Ringo while we were away. Our meet and greet went perfectly, especially given all of Ringo’s various feeding and medical needs. Her care and love of animals really shines through— in short, Abby is awesome!”
“Adriana took great care of our cats! I wasn’t worried about them being okay while I was gone while she was checking in on them. She provided lots of pictures and details of her visits. She also went above and beyond to help with some house upkeep during her visits which I really appreciated.”
“Jocelyn was great! Provided wonderful updates and was very pleasant to chat with. I knew from the start that our cat was in good hands and Jocelyn kept proving that to be true each day. If you want someone who will go the extra mile to make sure your pets are loved while you’re away, Jocelyn is your person!”
“We were new to the area and needed a new sitter for our three cats when we were out of town. Kristin was amazing!!! It was so comforting to know that our cats were in such good hands. We received daily photos and updates and the cats seemed genuinely comfortable with her since the first visit. We’re already rebooking.”
“We had an amazing experience with Chantal. She is incredibly warm-hearted and kind. She communicated with us transparently about our cat, regularly sending pictures and keeping us updated! Going above and beyond what was required of her. We would 100% book with her again. Thank you so much!”
“Alyssa did a wonderful job with Chicken!! -- especially given her special needs. I appreciate the communication and pictures/videos that Alyssa sent. Given that Chicken is an older cat and has some vision issues, it was nice to know that she was well taken care of. Thank you Alyssa!!!”
“I have never used a pet sitter before, but thanks to Rachel, I will absolutely do it again. She came over to my house before we left so I could show her the routine. As soon as I met her, I was no longer nervous about leaving my cats. She did a great job, is super professional, and I hope to book her again in the future.”
“Naomi did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats, fed them and cleaned the litter boxes. She kept in contact and updated us with pictures, we will definitely ask her to take care of the cats again!”
“I rebooked Skyler and had another great experience. She has great communication, is reliable, and my cat loves her. I feel very at ease having her drop in on my cat.”
About: My very first pet of my own is my beautiful calico cat, Nala. I love her beyond words and I would treat your fur baby just how I would want someone to care for mine! I have been cat sitting for over 10 years, as one of my very first jobs was watching my neighbors cat while they were on vacation. She was diabetic so I had to give insulin and make sure she was feeling okay without her mom and dad around. There’s nothing too weird or crazy I won’t do to make your pet feel loved and cared for while you’re away! Don’t hesitate to ask.
“Such a great experience and a wonderful caring human to watch over our fur babies! Sent lots of updates while we were away and followed all of the care instructions for our cats. Thank you so much. 100% recommend!”
“Amy did an awesome job checking on our cat and chickens. She always checked with us if she was unsure about any procedures or issues. We were traveling to Kenya and she was able to put our minds at ease over what could have been a stressful situation. She communicated successfully over several formats including texting through Rover as well as What's App. We would readily recommend her to anyone looking for pet services and we will definitely contact her in the future.”
About: I’m an environmental educator at a non-profit nature center and I’ve taken care of animals for friends and family for 10 years. I have experience caring for all kinds of dogs from puppies to seniors. Care has included walking dogs, house sitting, and drop in visits. I have experience caring for cats and own a cat myself. I also have experience in administering medications to animals including pills and insulin injections. I love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds, have experience working at a zoo, and experience caring for amphibians including turtles and frogs. I’m available for your pet care through-out the week. I do have a full time job, but would be available to house sit or drop-in during the week and on the weekends. I’m comfortable with house sitting or drop-ins. I’ll dog walk, administrator any needed meds, change litter boxes, and whatever your pets require, along with giving them lots of love and attention!
About: First and foremost, Thank you for your interest into my profile! It is truly an honor to have the opportunity to help partake in care and activities with your special pets of all species and sizes! My goal is to make a lasting career professionally as a Veterinarian Technician in the near future, and in the mean time provide any service's I can to pets and owners in need. 5 years ago I spent some time in Missouri where I helped provide care for kennel dogs for around 6 months, including providing baths, medicine, walks, food, water, playtime, attention and love to all of the dogs. Since then I have returned to Syracuse and have helped care for my 6 year old Jack Russell terroir (Luna) and my 4 year old kitten (Buggsy). Buggsy became apart of my family last summer when a friend discovered 7 kittens in her backyard who needed loving homes. Thankfully, that goal was achieved as all kittens were placed in homes and spayed and neutered (including the neighborhood feral mother and father cats to help stop any kittens being left on the street in the future!) And as time has gone on, my love, patience, and determination to work with animals has only grown. Thank you again for your time! I am available on every other weekend from Friday to Sunday. I get one day off during the week which changes, but it will be marked on my calendar for availability. I am willing and hoping to work with any potential clients schedules. I would like to make sure I can ask for any possible extra information needed to help ensure the best treatment for your animals. Along with that I always check fences/gates before bringing an animal outside in case of other animals or people. I also like to scan the surrounding and verify theirs is no unsafe food or material that the animal could possibly ingest in and out of the home. I also always make sure to check and refill any water or food as necessary and clean up any accidents or trips to the bathroom in or out of the home. And ensuring to lock all doors and secure all gates while entering and exiting the home. I love sending photos and keeping you the parent/owner updated as you wish! Thank you again for your time to look at my profile and I hope we can all be a great match! I am available on most days of the week including Monday to Friday. But I am willing to work weekends if needed! I usually prefer hours anywhere from 10am to 7pm but I am willing to work around that to better fit your schedule if needed! It is very important for me to ask any possible questions on extra information needed to help ensure the best treatment not only for your animals but the safety and care of your home as well. Routinely for each visit I ensure fences/gates and doors to property are properly locked and closed after entering the home and after exiting. Especially before bringing an animal outside in case of other animals or people. I also like to scan the surrounding and verify there is no unsafe food or material that the animal could possibly ingest in and out of the home. As well as locating, cleaning, and properly disposing of any trips outside to the bathroom. It’s also important that I check and refill any water or food to the correct measurement/request of owner as necessary. and clean up any accidents or trips to the bathroom in or out of the home. And ensuring your pet gets as much playtime, pets, and or cuddles as they desire. I know each animal can have very different personalities so I am here to help provide them as much comfort as possible. Whether that be relaxing with some belly rubs or running around and playing catch, I am ready to work with both ends of the spectrum!

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding routines, administering basic medications, and providing lots of attention and companionship. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and prioritize clear communication with regular updates and photos. I have a fully fenced in backyard (although I can also take your pet for walks as well if preferred!) and am available to give lots of cuddles all day as I work from home full time! I work remote full time and have a fully fenced in back yard so I am able to watch your dog or cat full time. On the weekends I am usually out hiking or with friends, and can take your pet on those adventures as well! I also have a small 30 lb house trained and friendly doggy named Ramsey who is always down to play and/or nap :) I am able to give your pet around the clock care as I work from home, and my dog Ramsey is always ready to make new friends! I do allow pets on the furniture, just not in my bed, and have a fully fenced in yard for playtime, as well as the ability to take your furry friend on walks as well! Please let me know what your needs are, I want their stay to be as comfortable as possible!
“Staci was a great! She has excellent communication, and updated me with plenty of pictures. I felt very safe allowing her in my home to pick up and drop off my Ace. She has a lot of experience and I was confident my dog was in good care with her. I highly recommend Staci.”
“Debbie was very good with Marshall, the introductions to the other dogs was done well! She was professional and a good communicator! Marshall had a great time! We will be using her again.”
“Susan kept in touch with me on my dog's first day care try. My dog did not get along with the other dog, so she kept them separated until I could get there to pick my dog up. Susan was very patient with him and kept him company. The problem was my dog and I will contact her again for a solo stay.”
About: I’ve owned a dog or two since I could walk. I dog sit for family & friends. I care that they feel safe, loved, & secure while you are out. Their well being matters to me. I currently work partime, 2 days a week. I am available to work your dogs potty breaks and walks around mine pretty easily. I love to walk myself, so walking your pup is easy. I love making our fur babies happy! I have a fenced yard and live in a lovely safe neighborhood to walk dogs. I have room enough inside to throw a ball and play. I care that your dog feels safe and not abandoned. I’ll love them like they were my own.
“Our usual sitter Chelsea was unavailable and recommended Marisol. Isla loved her time with Marisol and Benito! This is the first real off leash (fenced in yard) play she's had with a dog closer to her size and she loved it. They really made her feel welcome and taken care of and all that play left her tuckered out. We even got ideas for a couple new toys for her.”
“Jennifer was wonderful! My puppy was very excited the second time around and did not even whine when i left. He was ready to play with Jennifers sweet dog. Jennifer is very reliable and forthcoming of any possible scheduling conflict. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be back.”

About: For many years, I aided my aunt who owns her own dog grooming salon, keeping the dogs occupied and bathing them! I have also taken care of many friends and family members dogs, even cats! I had two dogs, two Guinea pigs, and recently just adopted a cat! I volunteer weekly at a bunny farm cleaning their cages and spending time with them. I enjoy all animals and being a difference in their lives! I currently have a full time job, typically work week hours, with some overtime so I will need to work around that! Available weekends and late night!! I have a park nearby and am familiar with safe areas for dog walking! I think it is important to listen to the client and will do everything I can to ensure your pets safety and help you feel at ease knowing they are in good hands! Every client is different and I respect each and every boundary.
“Gunner enjoyed his stay and we felt relieved with him in Diana’s care. Very lovely young lady with best interest of pups in mind. Would use her again. She was awesome with last minute request. Thank you!!”
“D treats our pet like her own. We love having her as our go-to sitter for our pup! I would 1000% recommend her again and again! It's such a relief knowing our dog is getting the love and care she deserves while we're busy with our everyday lives. Whether it's a last-minute pop-up visit or our regular daycare days, D is always fantastic!”
About: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.
“Bruno absolutely loves to see Eden and have her stay and care for him. He is a very active Border Collie so he totally enjoys going on several walks with her. Eden understands his needs and cares for him with great enthusiasm.”
“Ashley and her husband were great. They were very responsive to questions, went above and beyond to update me throughout the daycare process, and also spoiled my dogs with a pool and so much attention. Thank you both for helping my family out while we were moving!”
“Ellen and John were wonderful throughout the booking, hand off and pickup process. Dale seems to have had a fabulous time with them! He was immediately comfortable and walked right off without looking back at me. I got pictures of during the day of him enjoying time outside. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“I can't say enough good things about Stacey. She is truly outstanding in every way when it comes to taking care of Scotch. I always have complete peace of mind knowing my Scotch is in such capable and caring hands. Whether I’m away at work or out for the day, I never have to worry—my dog is happy, safe, and well cared for.”

About: Hi Neighbors, I am a Natural World Enthusiast looking to provide support to pets and their owners in the community. My heart is geared towards animals. I have decades worth of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small pets, from my own to friends and clients in the professional setting. My goal is to provide a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well being for your pet. I am here to help fill in the gaps in your busy schedules and be there. So whether your pal needs a hike, walk around the neighborhood, a feeding, medication dose (dogs and cats) or just a visit, I have your back. We all need movement, attention and praise, pets included. I use positive reinforcement as training method, for all pets at every stage. So whether you have a puppy with some aggression issues, a husky that needs a run, a diabetic cat, fish to be fed and admired, or an stinky old man dog that just needs to be sung to and told he's a good boy I am here to serve. I have two cats personally, they run the household and tell me what to do. They eat twice a day, get their boxes cleaned daily, and petted and played when they decide. Monday- Thursday I am available for pet visits from 10:30-2:30 and again from 5-9 pm Fridays - I am available from 10:30-1:00 for visits Weekends-vary During daycare hours I will always be in the home with your pet unless we are going on an outing together. Play, snacks, walks, songs, and naps will be provided daily. I do have two cats, who will probably stay out of the way, but cat friendly creatures are always preferred.
“Adriana has been excellent! very responsive and communicative - it's been a joy to work with her and I trust her with my boy completely (an 80 lbs. 8 year old dog who loves all his smells and peeing on everything!).”
About: I have pet sat for neighbors and family friends for years and for long periods of time. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and fish. I also have experience working with reptiles and snakes as an intern for an environment education center. I took care of a box turtle, corn snake, and painted turtle. I am in college full time but am willing to watch or stop by when I am not currently taking a class. I am a junior at SUNY ESF. And have a relatively light schedule that would allow me to dedicate hours to your pet if needed. As I live in an apartment I do not have any pets nor can I board pets. However, I have my own car so I can travel to take care of pets. If you wish to have overnight care I can stay on a couch or blow up mattress by your pet for safe company.
About: With over 10 years of experience, I am comfortable with all kinds of animals and temperaments - big dogs, angry kitties, stubborn puppies, and anxious pets. I can also give meds if needed and make sure your pet stays safe, calm, and cared for like they’re my own. No matter their personality, I’ve got them covered 😊 I am currently in school but it is strictly online, so I am available almost all days and times. I work Thursday-Saturday from 4-10 but I am available any other time! I can’t block out those times specifically sadly so just message me if you have any questions regarding my availability! I have my own car, I’m also a night owl so don’t feel bad asking for a night check on your pups during date night!! I have 1 cat and 1 dog of my own at home who are the most spoiled babies ever! Most importantly, I am a firm believer in all things safety. I worked with horses for over 10 years so I know how important it is to follow the instructions I have been given. I may be small, but I am mighty! I can handle big dogs, mean cats, and fresh horses! I am more than happy to change any of my procedures to accommodate your fur baby, just ask!
“John is an excellent dog walker and care taker! Having someone come by my place that I trust is a huge relief. Even in warmer weather Benny still got outside and got great exercise. Thanks so much John!”
“Kristin was great. I needed someone to walk my dog a few times on a sunday evening. She was able to meet me and Oakley before, and check out my apartment so there were no issue the day of. She provided pictures and updates, along with beginning and ending walk times. It helped keep me at ease, and I highly recommend her!”
“Isaiah is an amazing dog walker!! He is very friendly and super reliable! I never had to worry about my dog not being well taken care of. I can’t say I’ve felt the same with other dog walkers we have used. Goose also loves him and enjoys their walks! I would highly recommend him!”

I look forward to meeting your 4-legged family member(s)! I am a Kindergarten teacher, so in the summers I have more availability. During the school year os harder but I can do my best to accommodate. I have a fenced in yard, however we have an inground pool. No pet will ever be left outside alone. I can also work with your dog to be sure they sre comfortable and safe.
About: First and foremost, Thank you for your interest into my profile! It is truly an honor to have the opportunity to help partake in care and activities with your special pets of all species and sizes! My goal is to make a lasting career professionally as a Veterinarian Technician in the near future, and in the mean time provide any service's I can to pets and owners in need. 5 years ago I spent some time in Missouri where I helped provide care for kennel dogs for around 6 months, including providing baths, medicine, walks, food, water, playtime, attention and love to all of the dogs. Since then I have returned to Syracuse and have helped care for my 6 year old Jack Russell terroir (Luna) and my 4 year old kitten (Buggsy). Buggsy became apart of my family last summer when a friend discovered 7 kittens in her backyard who needed loving homes. Thankfully, that goal was achieved as all kittens were placed in homes and spayed and neutered (including the neighborhood feral mother and father cats to help stop any kittens being left on the street in the future!) And as time has gone on, my love, patience, and determination to work with animals has only grown. Thank you again for your time! I am available on every other weekend from Friday to Sunday. I get one day off during the week which changes, but it will be marked on my calendar for availability. I am willing and hoping to work with any potential clients schedules. I would like to make sure I can ask for any possible extra information needed to help ensure the best treatment for your animals. Along with that I always check fences/gates before bringing an animal outside in case of other animals or people. I also like to scan the surrounding and verify theirs is no unsafe food or material that the animal could possibly ingest in and out of the home. I also always make sure to check and refill any water or food as necessary and clean up any accidents or trips to the bathroom in or out of the home. And ensuring to lock all doors and secure all gates while entering and exiting the home. I love sending photos and keeping you the parent/owner updated as you wish! Thank you again for your time to look at my profile and I hope we can all be a great match! I am available on most days of the week including Monday to Friday. But I am willing to work weekends if needed! I usually prefer hours anywhere from 10am to 7pm but I am willing to work around that to better fit your schedule if needed! It is very important for me to ask any possible questions on extra information needed to help ensure the best treatment not only for your animals but the safety and care of your home as well. Routinely for each visit I ensure fences/gates and doors to property are properly locked and closed after entering the home and after exiting. Especially before bringing an animal outside in case of other animals or people. I also like to scan the surrounding and verify there is no unsafe food or material that the animal could possibly ingest in and out of the home. As well as locating, cleaning, and properly disposing of any trips outside to the bathroom. It’s also important that I check and refill any water or food to the correct measurement/request of owner as necessary. and clean up any accidents or trips to the bathroom in or out of the home. And ensuring your pet gets as much playtime, pets, and or cuddles as they desire. I know each animal can have very different personalities so I am here to help provide them as much comfort as possible. Whether that be relaxing with some belly rubs or running around and playing catch, I am ready to work with both ends of the spectrum!

“It appears Nicholas enjoyed his time with Mary too much! He has been moping around the house getting used to a home without more people and pets. It was great receiving daily pictures and the care couldn’t have been more loving. I will definitely try to book with Mary whenever I travel in the future.”
“Ashley took great care and updated me everyday about my dog. She was so patient with my puppy to ensure that she adjusted well to the new environment. Very effective communication and I felt so grateful for having her and her family to board my girl while I travel.”
“Our dog Kristoff always has a wonderful time. This was his first overnight and we picked him up happy and well. It’s great to know we have somewhere safe and fun for him to go when we travel.”
“Caterina proved to be the perfect sitter for my senior dog Max. She sent updates and it was evident that she truly cares about what she does. Max came home happy and energetic—not always the case with some boarding kennels. I cannot recommend her more highly, and Max and I look forward to his staying with her again.”
“Charlie came back happy and healthy! Susan kept us well updated without needing to prompt, which was much appreciated while we were tied up on vacation it was nice to see he was being well cared for.”
“One of the big reason why I decided to go with Arya for my 3 year old Lab, Bubbles, is the way he explicitly explained about the expectations and facts, how we as customers should expect him to host. Hosting a pup may be easy but understanding the psyche, taking measures to ensure all dogs are safe needs skills and that sets Arya apart. Few weeks before hosting, I took Bubbles for a meet and greet, only with Arya. He introduced Enzo and Igor to me as well, but, only after Bubbles was in the car. It gave me a wonderful feeling how much he cared about not just his pups but mine too. The stay- Arya is a brilliant and talented host and has been updating me with many videos and pictures about the walks, food and stays. He diligently walked Bubbles everyday. As Bubbles is a black lab, he was being mindful of the heat and took him out for walks at night. I was impressed how much he cares and loves the pups he is boarding. Overall it was a great experience and I am sure Bubbles will love to spend more time with Arya. I would highly recommend Arya for your pups. I have already decided to go with Arya and use his services henceforth.”
“Chantal was amazing with my pets! She kept me updated the entire time and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. They came back happy and well taken care of. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Meghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.”
“Destiny took such good care of my Opie. Her home environment seemed comforting/spacious for him and she made sure he got multiple walks a day. She sent lots of pictures, little updates, and made sure to ask questions about behaviors she wasn't sure about.”
“Huijun was communicative and thoughtful in caring for my pup! I felt comfortable knowing she was well taken care of! She was also willing to care of my pup on short notice, which I was very appreciative of.”
“I can’t say enough about how Christine and Matthew made me feel so comfortable leaving Riley with them when we were out of town! They kept me updated on how she was doing every day. When we arrived to pick her up, I thought she might want to stay!”
“Kiera took such wonderful care of my senior guy! I dropped him off at her home while I moved into my new place and I had such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Kiera sent me pics and videos of Chico playing and out on walks with her sweet senior girl! I will definitely bring Chico back to Kiera’s in the future.”
“Yakelin is a miracle worker! She was not only available last minute, but was expertly qualified to handle our 2 husky puppies! The most impressive part is that they came back even more well behaved than when we dropped them off! I wish I could leave 100 stars!!!”
“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!”
About: Hi Neighbors, I am a Natural World Enthusiast looking to provide support to pets and their owners in the community. My heart is geared towards animals. I have decades worth of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small pets, from my own to friends and clients in the professional setting. My goal is to provide a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well being for your pet. I am here to help fill in the gaps in your busy schedules and be there. So whether your pal needs a hike, walk around the neighborhood, a feeding, medication dose (dogs and cats) or just a visit, I have your back. We all need movement, attention and praise, pets included. I use positive reinforcement as training method, for all pets at every stage. So whether you have a puppy with some aggression issues, a husky that needs a run, a diabetic cat, fish to be fed and admired, or an stinky old man dog that just needs to be sung to and told he's a good boy I am here to serve. I have two cats personally, they run the household and tell me what to do. They eat twice a day, get their boxes cleaned daily, and petted and played when they decide. Monday- Thursday I am available for pet visits from 10:30-2:30 and again from 5-9 pm Fridays - I am available from 10:30-1:00 for visits Weekends-vary During daycare hours I will always be in the home with your pet unless we are going on an outing together. Play, snacks, walks, songs, and naps will be provided daily. I do have two cats, who will probably stay out of the way, but cat friendly creatures are always preferred.
