“Tim and Kathy are incredible people! They took such good care of our Caesar when we went away for the night. They sent pictures and sweet notes and we knew he was in the best of hands. If I could give 10 stars I would.”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful. We were very nervous about leaving our senior dog and very soon in to taking our little dog in we were good. Samantha really did an excellent job making sure he ate and giving him his medicine. We will definitely recommend Samantha to take care of your dog. We will be using Samantha again.”
“Mary was the perfect match for our elderly dog: she is patient and caring. Mary has her home and yard set up for every dog's optimal comfort, which we especially appreciated since our dog has arthritis. Ella, our 15 year-old papillon, loved her!”
“Kim was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Daisy. I was worry-free on my trip as I received daily photos of Daisy playing, snoozing, and hanging out with Kim. Kim treated Daisy as her own and I will highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and comfortable home for their dog to stay while their away.”
“This was the best Rover experience for me! Susan made sure my dog is safe and feels comfortable. My dog easily gets nervous with strangers, but she got used to the new environment faster than normal. I felt like Susan is really good with handling dogs too because she has great amount of experience with dogs. I really appreciate her updates, photos, and all the accommodations she has made for us. Thank you!!😊”
“Alex and his family treat Ollie like he was a part of the family, and it shows! Not only is he happy when he’s with them, but it’s a vacation for him, for sure! Comes home happily exhausted!”
“Pam is wonderful and I could tell our sweet girl loved it at Pam’s place. I’ve already rebooked! So thankful to have found her! She sent me photos and a video to assure me my beagle was doing well! Thank you Pam!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kyle and Max! They took amazing care of our golden retriever, Harry, for five days and treated him like he was part of their family. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. Kyle and Max kept Harry entertained, active, and happy with plenty of adventures, playtime, and attention. The photos and updates they sent gave us so much peace of mind and made it clear just how much love and care they were giving him. Harry came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that they took the time to get to know his personality and made sure he felt comfortable and loved while we were away. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, we highly recommend Kyle and Max. We are incredibly grateful for everything they did for Harry and would not hesitate to book with them again! Thank you both for giving Harry such a fun-filled and loving home away from home! He misses you already.🐾❤️”
About: Peppy Pet Care was launched at the end of 2018 in Ithaca, NY by myself and my animal-loving, entrepreneurial eleven year old daughter. Together we worked to provide outstanding pet sitting services to Ithaca and Lansing pet owners. Beginning in 2021, I started officially working on my own, as my daughter is busy pursuing other interests and activities. I treat pets in my care as I would my own. I am considerate, patient, reliable and caring and trustworthy. I treat each visit like an adventure and make it the warmest and most wonderful experience for each animal. I look forward to meeting you and your cat/dog and discussing your care needs. Thank you in advance for considering my services!!! I'm available both weekdays and weekends. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, as well as late night. I am typically in town during holidays and update my online calendar frequently. I provide care in client homes only at this time. I'm always vigilant when entering and exiting client homes, so as not to allow pets to slip out.
“Excellent communication and dog-loving household for boarding. Our dog was well taken care of by Cate and family, who welcomed her along with their 2 nice dogs. Great location for us. Everything worked out great and we'll be returning soon!”
“Destiny is wonderful! She makes you and your pup feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Destiny for babysitting and will definitely continue to use her!!”
“Did an amazing joke with taking care of my boy. I had to run out of town last minute so I am grateful for the quick response and willingness. I got some pictures and good communication”
“Andrea and her family were absolutely wonderful to our elderly pup during his first stay with them. They were extremely attentive to his behavior and needs, and totally proactive in sending me photos and reports on his stay. When I arrived to pick him up, I could see how well they had connected with him through their warmth and kindness. We are very grateful to them and already looking forward to his next visit!”
“They sent pictures each day, and my pup was happy and healthy (and thankfully tired from a long day of playing) when I picked her up! Will definitely book again!”
“Friendly, open, took the time to show me her house so I felt comfortable leaving my special girl there overnight. Excellent communication and picture updates. I felt very much at ease knowing my pup was being cared for. I will absolutely use Chantal again!”
“Great property for dogs and a welcome home. I have a Vizsla, which means he’s full of energy and attention seeking. He had plenty of room to run and was shown the care and love he needed. I will definitely use Dixie again in the future.”
“Heidi was so great with our fur babies! She sent so many pictures and kept us informed. She is also so knowledgeable. Our babies enjoyed hanging out with Kenzie who is also so sweet and adorable”

“Ariana did an absolutely stellar job looking after our two cats. When we had to leave home immediately due to unforeseen circumstances, she was able to instantly take over the cat-care, so they didn't have any sort of disruption to their schedules. She communicated perfectly, handled what troubling circumstances arose during the care period, came to the house in the middle of a tornado watch, and our normally quite-standoffish cat absolutely adored her. An absolute lifesaver!”
“McKenzie was fantastic and took care of our two cats while we were away. She went the extra mile and even swept up the litter they were tracking through the house. We would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
About: I have 5 years of experience caring for cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and checking in to make sure cats are safe and comfortable. I understand that cats can have different personalities, so I am patient, gentle, and respectful of their space. I always follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully and will treat your cat like part of the family.
“We could not ask for a better person to help care for our dogs !!! Joey was excellent with all three of them and completely trustworthy. I would absolutely leave him with our dogs at any time !!!!!!”

About: Hi! I'm Karla. I've been a cat owner since age 11, and a cat lover for even longer. I've spent time caring for cats of all personalities: skittish, shy, sassy, escape artists, and more. I'm very familiar with feline body language and know when it's time for big pets and when it's time to back off. My ultimate goal is that your cat is safe, healthy, and comfortable! My secondary goal is to get you the cutest photos possible while you're away and missing your kitties. I'm a Cornell professor with the summer off, so you can trust that I'll be communicative, reliable, and thoughtful. I'm currently available for bookings weekdays and weekends, at any time of day. Please reach out if you'd like to book me!
“Yazmeen follow all the directions I left and that dogs really like her. It was our first time having someone come to our house to check on the dogs and feed them instead of boarding. It went so smoothly we will definitely request her again. Thank you Yazmeen!”
About: I’ve always been around cats since I was little I’m 38 years old now and been around them my whole life but working at the kennel and having my own cat has been the last 8 years or so. I love cats and even if it’s just a drop in visit I’d love to cuddle with whichever cat I’m taking care of.
“Heather was super sweet, understanding and very responsive! She understood my circumstances for needing my kitty Poptart watched and had no complaints with how last minute my request was. When there was an interference with the pickup time, she was completely understanding and didn’t charge extra. I even told her about Poptart’s disliking of other cats, and she kept her in a room separate from her own and even offered to introduce my cat to hers to get her more accustomed to being around other cats in the future. Overall, she was a wonderful sitter and I’ll definitely consider her again in the future!”
“Great communication, very professional, immediately apparent that he knew his way around cats (was willing to crawl on the floor to get a picture of my skittish boy under the bed).”
“Mariana took care of our cat while we went on vacation for 4 days. He’s a little shy but warmed up quickly to her, and seemed very content when we returned. In the past he would be very needy if we were gone for an overnight trip but he was perfectly happy, so it was clear he got a lot of attention and was well armed for. She also sent a bunch of pictures which we appreciated!”
About: I have had cats in my life since I was a child. I have worked with all kinds of cats from skittish to extremely friendly, as well as those with behavioral issues. With cats, I take getting to know them slowly, lots of treats and playtime opportunities. If your cat isn't a snuggly type, that is okay, we all have our own boundaries. I would be ecstatic to assist you with your cat-related needs!

About: I've been caring for cats for years, including my own cats, Bert and Lucy. Through daily care, I've gained hands-on experience with feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, grooming, and recognizing changes in behavior that may indicate a cat needs extra attention. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, whether they're social and playful or shy and independent. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and comfortable environment where your cat can feel secure while you're away. I'll care for your cat with the same patience, attention, and affection that I give to Bert and Lucy every day.

“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.”
“Ellen provides a safe and fun environment for my pup. She is responsive when booking and answers any questions in a timely matter. I enjoy the photo updates during the visit.”
“My yellow lab, Sandy, had a wonderful day with Claudia! Claudia was very responsive and engaging, fun, and bubbly. Since she was going to be taking care of another dog on the same day that I booked Sandy's stay, Claudia suggested that we meet both her and Bella (cutest pug ever!) ahead of time to see how the two dogs would get along. It was so nice to be able to do that so that it was easy for me to just drop Sandy off on her booked day without a worry. Claudia sent me fun videos and pictures throughout the day, which was fantastic. Sandy loved her! I will definitely book Claudia again whenever I am in Ithaca! She was fabulous!!”
“Jennifer was so easygoing and able to accommodate with little notice. My energetic puppy enjoyed playing with the other doggos. He was well taken care of, stayed all day, and slept well when we got home after a fun filled day. Will use again in the future.”
“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.”
“Dixie was super sweet and is a lovely sitter! Our two big girls looked like they had a really good time! Dixie also give us some news during the day for us to know everything was doing great ? Would really recommend her!! ?”
“Destiny was a gem! She took care of my puppy with only a few days notice. He was so happy and well cared for during his stay. I will definitely use her services again!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life from puppies to rescues! I've also been a grooming salon manager in Ithaca for 7 years. I've cared for many different breeds, ages, temperaments, and quirks all dogs have and I love them all the same. I'm now a stay at home mom missing my daily dog visits! I have two dogs of my own Luke and Yoda. Luke is a 6 year old lab grey hound mix around 35 lbs. He is very loving and playful. Yoda is a 5 year old miniature fox terrier mix who has unlimited energy and is the sweetest snuggler. I'm willing to bathe and groom but it just depends on your dogs hair and size because I do not have a grooming area set up yet in my home, but I'm willing to talk about it! I am home all day with my baby and two dogs of my own so I can give the same care to some extra dogs! I treat every dog as if they are my own. I have lots of extra blankets to make sure they have there own space (i do recommend to bring some of there stuff like blankets, beds, and toys to make them more comfortable) and have extra room to separate them if they need to be alone. I will always make sure they are comfortable, happy, loved, and safe!
“Samantha is wonderful. Booking was done last-minute, on a holiday, no less. Samantha was kind, responsible, on-time, and would have sent intormation about my dog every 20 minutes if I wanted it. Highly recommend.”
“Kyle took excellent care of my elderly Maltese, Sammy. It was a relief that he was able to take care of Sammy on short notice and give my skittish dog a calm place to stay. He always responded quickly to messages and sent me a picture of Sammy each day. I would happily let him watch Sammy again if we come back to Ithaca.”

“Tim and Kathy always take awesome care of my "kids" . They love hanging out with Bailey and his parents. We will miss them all when we make our move to West Virginia. Thank you so much!”
About: I've cared for dogs of different sizes over the years and I love to cuddle, walk, and pamper pups. We have a fenced in back yard and I like to take long walks with dogs if they're up for it. We have a 4 year old boxer/hound mix who is sweet with people but not great with other dogs. We keep him away from guest dogs, there's lots of room in the house for each dog to have their own space and still get lots of love from me and the family. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I take breaks through the day to care for puppies, whether that's a quick potty break, fun walk, or play time with balls and toys. When boarding, I make sure pups get any meds they need, plenty of time outside, and snuggles on the couch (if they're the snuggling type). I know some dogs need longer or shorter walks, and I make adjustments based on what they need.
“My dog had a fabulous time at daycare with Mikia, her daughter and her dog Zara. I received some great photos (including some funny ones of the dogs wrestling) and felt comfortable knowing the dog was having a good time, socializing and burning off her adolescent energy while I was at work. Highly recommend!”
“Chantal is a fabulous rover who always takes such sweet care of my puppy. He absolutely loves her and warmed up to her within minutes at our meet and greet. Chantal follows directions and provides great care with updates. Kind, intuitive, and nurturing she provided excellent care while my puppy recovered from a stomach bug. He gets excited every time we pull up to her home and happily awaits weekly visits. Great rover reliable and sincere, she completely turned our Rover experience around after a negative experience with a different Rover the first time we used the app. Repeat customer, we can always count on Chantal to offer amazing services.”
“Charlotte was amazing with my fluffy girl, Peach!! She was super communicative and took great pictures! Peach got along amazing with her pups and was an all-around great experience. Will definitely be booking with Charlotte again when I return to Geneva.”
“Heather was fantastic! We came to town in our RV for weekend class reunion. Heather cheerfully came to the TV park to sit with our 12 pound Yorkipoo, Bear. She sent photos and loved on him. Heather was a great communicator too. We highly recommend Heather to watch your furry friends! Sarah and John”

About: I have grown up around dogs, specifically seniors who are on medication or are insulin dependant. I have experience with training as well, having trained my own service dog who went to college with me. I also have raised rabbits and guinea pigs for around 8 years and have shown them acrossed the country. At the moment I'm on break from college, I have a lot of avaliable time. I'm willing to work with you and make sure your pet gets all the attention they deserve! My own dog and I go for several walks a day and we play a in the lake. I have a long haired GSD so he gets groomed daily and loves to sleep in his bed! I plan to provide similar enrichment for your animals such as mind games on rainy days and lots of walks when it's nice outside.
About: I love all kinds of pets. You will be confident in knowing when you leave your pet with me. They will be loved and happy. I currently work hybrid during the day with a very flexible schedule. I can come home at any time to feed or let your pet out. I have a large wide open yard. We live on a dead end road. I currently have a small toy Shih Tzu. She’s just over 15 years old, but loves to play with other animals.
About: I started pet sitting as soon as I was old enough to stay home alone for friends, family, and neighbors. Throughout the years, I acquired lots of different clients through word of mouth. I have experience watching a variety of types of pets and at home I have three loving cats. I also have experience giving pets medication. Most importantly, I have a passion for all animals and I can assure your pet would be in the best possible care with me. I work in the tasting room at a Cidery in Ithaca. During the winter, I only work a few days a week so my availability is more freed up. At the moment, I would need to watch your pet at your house. My current apartment has a strict pet policy and I am only allowed my cats. I am open to sleeping over, just staying for the day, or popping in at scheduled times. When I am staying at a client’s home, I have the utmost respect and make sure to keep the line of communication open.
About: Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! I have over 10+ years of experience in working with both cats and dogs. I had my golden retriever Jake, for 15 years, and I currently have a cat named Lulu who is 9 years old. I have previous experience in working with both cats and dogs who have required care. This included checking in on them as well as feeding, walking and playing with them. I really love animals and love that every pet has their own unique personality. I know that animals always bring a smile to my face, and it is my goal that I can return the favor and make them happy as well. I would love to have the opportunity to care for your fur baby!
About: I have 5 years of pet care experience and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I have cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, including walking, feeding, playing, giving fresh water, cleaning up after them, and keeping them comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, gentle, and responsible, and I always try to follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take time to make pets feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I am usually home and able to give pets regular attention throughout the day. I can help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. I have a fenced-in house with 4 bedrooms, so I can safely keep pets separated when needed. This is helpful for pets who need quiet space, slow introductions, or extra comfort. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I keep the home clean, safe, and calm, and I make sure pets are supervised and comfortable during their stay.

About: Hey! I'm Yazmeen. I've been petsitting for the last 8 years. I started with my sister and continued on my own. I have experience giving medication and with senior dogs as well as kittens. I love a long walk if the dog is up for it, and I'm always down to play and snuggle. Let me know if you're interested! My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I I usually wake up early, so I don't mind an early walk or feeding schedule. I typically go to bed around 11pm-midnight, but I am happy to work around a pet's schedule, especially to accommodate any medications or weather. I was raised to leave things better than I found them, so I always do a thorough clean before I leave a petsitting gig (including washing sheets, so you can go straight to bed!) I can also bring in mail and water plants if you give me a watering schedule.
About: I have my own cat Anya and she is one of the most important things to me. I’ve always had a special connection with animals. Since I was young, I could always connect with other people’s pets, many times they would say wow he/she never let’s anyone do that etc. I often feel that I connect better with animals than with people.” I work at a kennel in auburn ny from 8am to 10am in the morning and evening from 4-5:30 but before and after that I try to fill in my time as much as possible seeing and taking care of as many animals as possible I have my own cat Anya but as far as taking care of your animals it would have to be at your place of residence. I offer walking, sitting, overnights, feeding etc. I don’t board any more pets at my residence.
“McKayla is a dog whisperer. My dog can be fearful and reactive of strangers and she took to McKayla right away. She walked my dog several times while I was on a 2 week trip, and I felt so comfortable knowing my quirky pup was in good hands. You can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs who have special considerations. So happy I found her as a walker! Highly recommend her.”

“Samantha was absolutely wonderful. We were very nervous about leaving our senior dog and very soon in to taking our little dog in we were good.

“Mary was the perfect match for our elderly dog: she is patient and caring. Mary has her home and yard set up for every dog's optimal comfort, which we especially appreciated since our dog has arthritis. Ella, our 15 year-old papillon, loved her!”
“This was the best Rover experience for me! Susan made sure my dog is safe and feels comfortable. My dog easily gets nervous with strangers, but she got used to the new environment faster than normal. I felt like Susan is really good with handling dogs too because she has great amount of experience with dogs. I really appreciate her updates, photos, and all the accommodations she has made for us. Thank you!!😊”
“Alex and his family treat Ollie like he was a part of the family, and it shows! Not only is he happy when he’s with them, but it’s a vacation for him, for sure! Comes home happily exhausted!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kyle and Max! They took amazing care of our golden retriever, Harry, for five days and treated him like he was part of their family. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. Kyle and Max kept Harry entertained, active, and happy with plenty of adventures, playtime, and attention. The photos and updates they sent gave us so much peace of mind and made it clear just how much love and care they were giving him. Harry came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that they took the time to get to know his personality and made sure he felt comfortable and loved while we were away. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, we highly recommend Kyle and Max. We are incredibly grateful for everything they did for Harry and would not hesitate to book with them again! Thank you both for giving Harry such a fun-filled and loving home away from home! He misses you already.🐾❤️”
About: Peppy Pet Care was launched at the end of 2018 in Ithaca, NY by myself and my animal-loving, entrepreneurial eleven year old daughter. Together we worked to provide outstanding pet sitting services to Ithaca and Lansing pet owners. Beginning in 2021, I started officially working on my own, as my daughter is busy pursuing other interests and activities. I treat pets in my care as I would my own. I am considerate, patient, reliable and caring and trustworthy. I treat each visit like an adventure and make it the warmest and most wonderful experience for each animal. I look forward to meeting you and your cat/dog and discussing your care needs. Thank you in advance for considering my services!!! I'm available both weekdays and weekends. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, as well as late night. I am typically in town during holidays and update my online calendar frequently. I provide care in client homes only at this time. I'm always vigilant when entering and exiting client homes, so as not to allow pets to slip out.
“Excellent communication and dog-loving household for boarding. Our dog was well taken care of by Cate and family, who welcomed her along with their 2 nice dogs. Great location for us. Everything worked out great and we'll be returning soon!”
“Destiny is wonderful! She makes you and your pup feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Destiny for babysitting and will definitely continue to use her!!”
“Did an amazing joke with taking care of my boy. I had to run out of town last minute so I am grateful for the quick response and willingness. I got some pictures and good communication”
“Andrea and her family were absolutely wonderful to our elderly pup during his first stay with them. They were extremely attentive to his behavior and needs, and totally proactive in sending me photos and reports on his stay. When I arrived to pick him up, I could see how well they had connected with him through their warmth and kindness. We are very grateful to them and already looking forward to his next visit!”
“Friendly, open, took the time to show me her house so I felt comfortable leaving my special girl there overnight. Excellent communication and picture updates. I felt very much at ease knowing my pup was being cared for. I will absolutely use Chantal again!”
“Great property for dogs and a welcome home. I have a Vizsla, which means he’s full of energy and attention seeking. He had plenty of room to run and was shown the care and love he needed. I will definitely use Dixie again in the future.”
“Heidi was so great with our fur babies! She sent so many pictures and kept us informed. She is also so knowledgeable. Our babies enjoyed hanging out with Kenzie who is also so sweet and adorable”
About: Like many others, I am a dog lover and was raised taking care of family dogs. Unlike others, that passion led to training and classes, competing in dog sports, and now, competing in dog shows. I have experience with many breeds of all sizes, senior pet care, reactive dog care and training. I would love to help you with your pet care needs! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most dogs’ needs. I currently have open availability for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop in visits. Dogs are treated like one of my own! I take your dog out for leashed potty breaks several times a day, according to their needs. While I am working, your dog can settle on the couch or one of the many dog beds, or relax and play with my dogs (a Golden Retriever and a Foxhound). If your dog likes the crate, I have an extra for them. When I run errands, your dog will be crated or gated in a separate room from my dogs for safety. I live on 4 acres next and next to a cemetery, so I can take your dog for relaxing walks in a peaceful environment.
“Ray has taken Oona while I’ve been away twice and both times was great with communication and sending pictures. He was flexible and thoughtful. I’m so happy I’ve found someone I so dependable who I can trust to care for my little girl.”
