Highly-rated overnight sitters - Preble
“This is the second time I have booked with Ashley and Brian, both times were extended stays of 5-8 days. I can't express enough how grateful I am that I found them. They truly care about your dog and go way above and beyond what most others ever would. It takes such a burden off your back while traveling when you know your dogs in great hands, and getting tons of love and attention in a nice household. They make everything such a pleasant experience and I wouldn't want to book with anyone else in fear of them not being able to provide the high quality care that Ashley and Brian do. Thank you again for another amazing experience!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Polina took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were on an extended vacation. She sent us photos periodically which was greatly appreciated. She contacted us regarding one of the dogs having redness in one eye and asked what we wanted her to do. We suggested eyedrops, she administered them and all was fine. You could tell she truly loves dogs and we would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Christine and Matthew are wonderful! Great communication and very accommodating. Ollie is always a little nervous when I first leave him somewhere new, but he couldn’t have been more happy and calm when I picked him up. Will definitely try to book with them again in the future. Highly recommend”
“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!”
“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!!😊”

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.
“If I could give 10 stars I would! Irena is wonderful! I love that Artie is in a home with a nice family that treats him like one of their own. Very flexible and genuinely cares about my puppy. He gets a lot of love and personalized attention. She keeps him engaged and plenty of exercise which helps him not be so active when he gets the puppy "zoomies" in the evening. Highly recommend to anyone who does not want to board their dog in a kennel or daycare facility. Thank you Irena and family! So glad we found you!”

Rachel is professional, understanding, and goes the extra step to make sure your pet is cared for.”
“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.”
“Rachel is a wonderful pet sitter. This is the second time I have booked her because I think she does such a great job and my kitty really likes her too. She takes wonderful care of my kitty and my home when I am gone, bringing in my mail, and checking in if anything seems amiss with the house. Rachel provides daily pictures and check-ins and left my home cleaner than I left it before my trip!”

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.

“Thank you for taking such great care of Mia and providing the update and pictures. I truly appreciate it! I loved the pictures you sent and shared them with my family. She slept well last night after having so much fun at your home. Thanks again!”
“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.”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and family members dogs growing up. My family loves to take care of dogs. We will care for your dog like we would our own. I have 4 kids(1-16) so the dog must be good with small children. I do work during the week. Someone is home during the summer and school breaks. We are available most weekends and can try to accommodate your pets needs! My husband and I both work in the school system so we are reliable and good people :) We live in a quiet neighborhood. I have two levels of our house and the dog is welcome to the entire house. We love to go on walks!
“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.”
“Alex was super communicative before, during, and after Jack’s daycare visit. He made Jack feel very comfortable when we arrived and was attentive to any extra care he’d need as a senior dog. Jack will be back!”
About: I have cared for pets all of my life- from hamsters to parakeets to fish to cats to my parents German Shepherd! I now have an Irish doodle, Aurora, and a golden doodle, Blaze, who love new friends. My husband, Jordan, is also an avid dog lover, and his family raises Norwegian elkhounds; so between the two of us we have quite a bit of experience. The neighbors always know that they can leave their pets in our hands and not only will they be fed and cared for, but also receive lots of love and attention as well. I am able to do bathing/grooming when required, as well as administer medicine should the necessity arise. We have moved! We now live on Skinner Hill Road, Sempronius/ Moravia, about 12 minutes from our previous location on Salt Rd, Groton. Our family will be growing by one tiny human in October 2023, and I have quit my full time job in preparation of that! So, I now have extra time to give to your fur babies when they come to stay! At the Doodle & Kaboodle, we’re all about the dogs! I currently live in a large house in the country with my husband, Jordan, our daughter Arielle (born 2023), our Irish doodle, Aurora, and our golden doodle, Blaze. Our backyard is fully fenced with agricultural grade 5 foot fencing for lots of outdoor fun! The dogs also have free run of the downstairs of our home. Overnight, dogs are kept in crates. They may also be crated if they seem overstimulated or need a break from playing. However, they will spend the majority of their time playing freely with our dogs. If your pup is not accustomed to being crated, we will arrange a quiet place in the house for their down time. Tell me your dog’s schedule and I will do my best to replicate it. Dog pick up and drop off is between 8 am and 9 pm seven days a week. Drop ins and walks: I am now able to make a drop in or walk your pup any time, any day! Due to the increase in fuel costs, I can no longer travel more than 10 miles from home. I have raised my drop in/ walk prices as well to compensate for fuel; however, I have drastically lowered my “second dog fee” to help balance the price out for those of you who are lucky enough to have more than one dog. Males over 6 months must be neutered for safety reasons. Unspayed females are welcome. If your dog goes into heat while staying with us, I will do my best to care for her. However, I do not assume responsibility for accidental pregnancy. No dogs who have a history of being aggressive with dogs or people are accepted. For liability reasons, I am not able to keep pit bulls or any mixed breed pit bulls or staffordshire terriers in my home. All other breeds are welcome! For the healthy and safety of all dogs, every dog must be vaccinated against rabies, distemper, parvo, and bordetella, as well as be on an active flea/tick preventative, in order to stay in our home. We also require proof of a clean fecal test within the last 6 months to stay in our home. We appreciate your understanding that this is to keep everyone safe and healthy! When you decide to book, you are confirming that to the best of your knowledge your dog does not have any contagious health conditions including but not limited to parasites, giardia, ringworm, mange, and other skin conditions and parasites/worms. If your dog has an obvious illness when he/she arrives I reserve the right to turn him/her away for the health and safety for all other dogs in my care. If you are not sure if your dog may be ill, please tell me the symptoms before drop off so we can make a decision ahead of time. Please provide food, dishes, bedding, crate, leash, collar, and anything else your dog may need. If you are not able to bring a crate please let me know and I will see what I can do. I have a few extras but may not always have the size required. Every dog must have a buckle on collar or similar. Slip on leashes are not accepted. A collar with id tags is recommended. I have a tag with my phone number that I will attach to your dogs collar while staying with me if you are not able to provide one. Please note: all services require a meet and greet with the pet owner and pet before booking! Any questions, just ask! We can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

About: Miranda has grown up in a home with furry friends since she was 6 months old! Everyone in the family has always had dogs. Miranda has raised 3 of her own from being a puppy to a full grown fur baby! Charles has also grown up his entire life with dogs running around his house. Please do keep in mind that we are dog sitters not dog trainers... If your pooch is destructive or disobedient; please let us know before hand, those kind of surprises are not always fun. We are currently at home full time due to the pandemic and being unemployed which means we will be available for you whenever you need us! We live in a ranch style home with a big fenced in back yard perfect for running and playing! We have a 5 year old boxer who we call Hazel that loves to sun bathe on the back porch as well. She is a super loving and playful girl who gets along with others very well! (PLEASE check her profile at the end of the page!) She has bins and bins full of toys that she has no problem sharing! We do have a 1 year old kitty in the house who is Hazels best friend and her name is Baby Kitty. She loves to play and cuddle with dogs too.

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!
“Sprite really enjoyed her time with Eden and is looking forward to her next visit! Eden was excellent and you can obviously tell she has a genuine love for animals.”
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!
“She took such good care of my dog, who also seemed to have a lot of fun with the other dogs. There was a minor scrape on her paw, but she used first aid and I felt that she handled it as good as I would have. I was wondering why I didn't get a call about it, but my cell sometimes drops calls.”
“Thank you Staci for taking such good care of Bella and coming though with such short notice and being so accommodating and flexible! Will certainly look to reach out to you in the future!”
“Suanny took good care of our furry girl and was flexible and responsive with drop off and pick up. Brownie was very happy and calm at pick up. Highly recommend!”
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.
“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!!”

He paid attention to her weaker back legs and adjusted the walks to suit her. He was reliable, flexible and he quick to respond to communications.

I've taken care of a variety of different animals since I was very young, from dogs, cats, lizards, bunnies, chinchillas, guinea pigs etc. I've grown up living with dogs since I was a child so I'm extremely comfortable around many dog breeds big and small. Family, friends, neighbors and coworkers have relied on me for years to watch over, care for, walk, feed etc. their pets. I have lots of experience with big dogs and am really comfortable walking them, I grew up with 2 rottweilers and a great pyrenees so I'm used to a big dog on a leash. I am currently a college student with a light open schedule so I will be able to fit your needs pretty much however you need. I would make sure your pets safety is my number one priority and my second priority would be to make sure your furry friend is enjoying their time! We would play a bunch of games, go on walks (I have multiple woodsy paths near my home).
About: Well hello everybody! I have owned and cared for cats my whole life! I would consider myself an expert even with the most challenging kitties and cats of all ages. Most of the cats I have had as pets have been special needs as well so please don’t think your little fur baby is too “difficult” for me! Also, I have been professionally taking care of pets all of my whole life. at most I’ve had 15 cats, 4 dogs, 1 turtle and 1 lizard. poop doesn’t scare me and neither does piddle! I have also had a plethera of pets that had special needs. therefore, if your pet requires special care, I am 100% willing to do that to ensure that you’re comfortable and that your fur-baby is too ☺️ Elderly pets are no worry. If your pet sprays I don’t wish to board them mainly because I don’t want their potty scent throwing off my animals. I have 3 cats of my own at my house. if your pet doesn’t agree with cats boarding probably won’t be the best solution for you! I have a completely open schedule that allows me to be around for you and your pet needs almost everyday of the week. I’m awake around the clock and don’t mind working with odd hours either! I would refer to the pet owners wants, wishes & concerns and of course treat them like as if they were my own little fur baby!
About: I've loved and cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. I now work remotely, so I can be quite flexible in terms of care and stays. While I live in Homer, NY, I currently work remotely. My schedule is extremely flexible, even with short notice. And I love pets of all types of sizes. While I do not currently have pets of my own, I lived as both a kid and adult with both dogs and cats. I'll keep them safe and shower them with love!

“This is the second time I have booked with Ashley and Brian, both times were extended stays of 5-8 days. I can't express enough how grateful I am that I found them. They truly care about your dog and go way above and beyond what most others ever would. It takes such a burden off your back while traveling when you know your dogs in great hands, and getting tons of love and attention in a nice household. They make everything such a pleasant experience and I wouldn't want to book with anyone else in fear of them not being able to provide the high quality care that Ashley and Brian do. Thank you again for another amazing experience!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Christine and Matthew are wonderful! Great communication and very accommodating. Ollie is always a little nervous when I first leave him somewhere new, but he couldn’t have been more happy and calm when I picked him up. Will definitely try to book with them again in the future. Highly recommend”
“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!”
“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!!😊”
About: I have always grown up around different types of dogs and cats with different requirements and I work full time in a veterinary hospital, so if they have and medications or medical needs I can assist Im currently working full time at a vet hospital but I have some time off due to summer and I love working with such cute animals I have a fenced in yard where they can run around and stretch there legs and relax at the end of the day with my two cuddling felines
“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 was very accommodating with my odd work hours (12 hour night shifts) and took great care of my two pups. It was so nice to have peace of mind while at work that they were being well loved!”
“Staci took good care of my Bella while I was away for two weeks. She always responded promptly to my messages, and sent photos every few days to update me with Bella’s activities. Thanks Staci!”
“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.”
“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”
“Yakelin has been a super lovely and caring dog sitter for my fur baby, Tonton. She and her family all shared a lot of love and care for my dog. We appreciate their attention to my dog’s medical conditions, and frequent updates with videos and pictures. The love and warmth we received from her and family is highly appreciated!”
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.
“If I could give 10 stars I would! Irena is wonderful! I love that Artie is in a home with a nice family that treats him like one of their own. Very flexible and genuinely cares about my puppy. He gets a lot of love and personalized attention. She keeps him engaged and plenty of exercise which helps him not be so active when he gets the puppy "zoomies" in the evening. Highly recommend to anyone who does not want to board their dog in a kennel or daycare facility. Thank you Irena and family! So glad we found you!”
“Jaclyn took such good care of my dog Lily while I attended Biscoland music festival. She sent me frequent photos and updates about how Lily was doing. She understood my dog has some food aggression and she accommodated her by feeding her separately and supervising her during meals. She also helped care for an eye injury that Lily had sustained a few days prior. I highly recommend Jaclyn’s dog sitting services to anyone looking for peace of mind. Thank you for all your help and clear communication, Jaclyn! I will definitely call you next time I am in the area and need dog sitting!”
“I have booked with Jenna before... our experience was so good and easy, we came back for another round. Satisfied customer yet again! My pup is always so happy when he gets there, and doesn't seem to want to leave! He loves his buddy Stitch (Jenna's pup). Jenna is also really accommodating to pick up and drop offs. Just another happy customer. Thank you Jenna!”
“I am fully comfortable leaving Marley with Andrea. During her stay, Marley had some stomach issues, and Andrea kept me updated the entire time. Sometimes after staying with a sitter, Marley can be a bit clingy. You would not know I was gone with how relaxed she was when I returned. I highly recommend Andrea!”
