“I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Becky! From our first interaction, it was clear how genuinely caring, responsible, and attentive they were. She took the time to get to know our dog’s personality and little quirks, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the stay, we received consistent updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made it so easy to relax knowing our pup was in such great hands. It honestly felt like our dog was on their own little vacation. What really stood out was the level of detail and effort. Becky and her daughter went above and beyond in every way. Whether it was sticking to her feeding and supplement schedules, making sure our dog got plenty of love and attention, extra attention to her needs (it was a change of seasons aka shedding time and they gave her lots of extra care and brushing to keep her comfortable!), it was all so appreciated. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but I would 100% book Becky again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, you’ve found the one!”
“Angela watched our almost one year-old golden retriever Brady for Memorial Day weekend. I received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Brady had a great time and was loved and cared for. I would definitely recommend Angela and will be using her in the future.”
“Debbie is the most amazing person and the care and attention our dogs get is simply wonderful! I never worry about our fur babies when they are in Debbie’s Care! Her and her husband treat them like family. Our dogs simply love them!!”
“Tawni was very kind and flexible as to our pick up and drop off time. Milo had a great time…she clearly took great care of him. I highly recommend her to anyone, but especially more timid dogs. She was excellent!”
“We are extremely pleased with the care that Laura offered for our Bailey. Laura communicated with us during Bailey’s stay with her providing us with peace of mind that Bailey was in good hands and doing well. We definitely would love to use her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Spritz is always excited when we arrive at Kevin and Whitney's. We receive pictures of him during his visit. Kevin and Whitney are very pleasant and Spritz enjoys having a play date. Highly recommend Kevin and Whitney.”
“Jenna and her husband and their sweet dog Stitch were amazing with Ramsey, who was with them for about 2 weeks! Jenna was very good about sending pics every day and I loved that Ramsey had another dog (or dogs) to play with! I would absolutely enlist their services again.”
“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”
“I was very anxious about leaving any of my dog with a sitter, as I have never left any of them with anyone before. I was very pleased how my fur family was taken care of, (he definitely goes above and beyond for your babies) I would definitely recommend him as well as use his services again in the future.”
“Morgan was fantastic! I contacted her relatively last minute to watch my puppy for a full day and she enthusiastically agreed to help me out! She kept my feisty pup safe, entertained, and tired out! I’m very grateful for her. And as the cherry on top, she came home and slept all night (a much needed full nights sleep for me, as well 😂)”
“What can I say about Lorinda? She provided exceptional care for my two dogs on a two week private at home boarding at her house. Her communication and responsiveness was 10 out of 10. She was incredibly flexible and helpful with logistics and some special accommodations we needed. When the state got extended and the dogs ran out of food, she was kind enough to go to two different stores to pick up what they like. She is very professional and reliable, and I feel very comfortable being out of the country, knowing that my dogs are with her.”
About: i’m going into my second year of college pursuing a degree in science and mathematics. my goal is to have a career in wildlife rehabilitation or veterinary care. i also have experience within EMS & firefighting as i’ve been a volunteer since 16. i’ve always loved animals of any kind and have been in aw by my own pets. i have 2 cats and 2 dogs, but currently live with only my senior cat (i brought her along with me for college). shes very specific but i make sure to keep up on her needs and do whatever i can for my baby. i live in a smaller sized apartment so I don’t currently have my dogs living with me, but since being away i miss being around them. soon i will be an intern at a zoo for animal care so i’m really looking forward to this opportunity! i love looking after family and friends pets, everytime I just feel as joyous as can be. I would love to start taking care of more pets within my community and gain more experience! __________________________________________ little side note: i allow my pets on my bed and couch with me all the time, just for some reason I wasn’t sure how to edit that off my profile lol so just know your pet is more than welcome 👌 i’m currently on summer break working a part time job, but have a flexible schedule. i like to go outside to parks, find good places to hike, and staying active. with bookings i will make sure to keep myself available or work with your schedule, whether that be for mornings, evenings, or even overnight. i’m also available the weekends. once school begins i will still be able to remain flexible. my senior cat sofia is specific with her needs, whether that’s the food she eats, the places she sleeps, or the litter i get. whatever her needs may be, whether she likes her hard food or gets sick of and only wants wet food, i make sure to listen. when she’s having a stomach ache or under the weather, i’m alerted and get her the best care i can provide. when it comes to family or friends animals like their dogs i like to spend a lot of time with them outside, taking them to parks, and even to hike depending on the kind of dog and their energy level. for clients i’ll ensure to keep them updated on their pets and if their were special instructions on how they want their pet to be treated i will do my best to make sure they are safe and well cared for.
About: I have alot of experience with horse sized dogs and little obes alike, its important to me that they get the love they miss from their owners. Im currently going to school partime and learning the area so i have tons of time to go for walks or play with your fur baby and keep up their schedule. I want to make sure both of our spaces are respected, i like to keep places as nice as i left them so i try to take an hour to spot clean anywhere ive been or where your pet may have made a mess and leave it tidy. I do the same for my home, i clean after every visitor.
“Cassandra was amazing with my Sophia who is an older dog with a few senior issues. We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anne”
“Jeannys was absolutely amazing. If I could give her more stars I would. She took care of my stray who I found abandoned on the side of the road in the beginning of summer. Molly is a little shy and nervous but she went right with Jeannys and seemed SO comfortable which reassured me. Jeannys constantly updated me with photos and videos! She also took Molly out and about like she was her own dog! I will definitely be using Jeannys for Molly in the future!”
“Nicole was a lifesaver! After getting over booked at a kennel during Cooperstown Baseball season, she came to my rescue. Great communication, flexible, easy to work with, updated me with pictures and she even trimmed my puppy nails. Highly recommend her.”
“Heather was amazing! She took care of our boy and made him feel at home with her. Kept us updated how he was doing and sent us pictures. Communication was great! She really put our mind at ease and we were able to enjoy our trip more knowing our boy was well taken care of. Above and beyond service.”

“Amy is awesome! My two dogs are really anxious around new people and that makes me anxious, but because of how calm and capable Amy is, everything went really well! She did drop-in visits 4 days in a row while my husband was working and while I was out of town. She sent me TONS of pictures and updates which was great! My dogs warmed up to her very quickly and by the end of the 4 days I think they thought she was a member of the family! When she took them for a walk, one of my dogs got muddy and she cleaned her up for us. I'm so glad we found Amy and I can't wait to use her when we go out of town at the end of this month! :)”
“Morghan was absolutely wonderful! She even took care of a couple things daily beyond the pet-sitting scope! She sent numerous daily pics with updates and stayed in constant contact. She refilled all the feeders, cleaned up after him, and had play time which is his favorite. Highly recommend her services!!”
“Alexandrea was absolutely amazing with our two cats! Communication with her was easy and she sent us pictures everyday of our cats. First time trying rover and she went above and beyond for us. Not only did she take great care of the cats, she even cleared snow when there was a storm while we were away, so above and beyond what she came to do! I would recommend her to anyone for care of your pets while you’re away.”
“Gil's calm and thoughtful demeanor immediately inspired trust. His care of my cat was flawless. I will request Gil next time I am away. I recommend Gil without reservation.”
About: I’ve cared for many types of dogs, cats, horses, cows and more for most of my life! Past and current employers, neighbors, friends and family have entrusted me with all of their animals! I currently have a full time job, however I am usually done by 3 pm and have 2-3 hours in between going back for night check. And I have time before 8 am depending on how close you are for early morning pet care! I currently have two dogs at my home who go out on a lead due to neighbors have free range chickens, but I have plenty of land to take your furbaby to play fetch or run around on!
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks, ferrets, you name it and I've taken care of it! Animals are a passion of mine and through pet sitting I get to meet so many great animals. I have offered a verity of pet sitting services such as dog walking, house sitting and farm sitting. Through the 4 years I have been pet sitting I have watched and cared for both domestic pets, as well as farm animals, and I have a list of references to back up my work. I do have a local part time job so my schedule is very flexible when it comes to pet sitting. I am available to check in and care for your pets in the morning, afternoon, and at night. I am also available to watch pets overnight throughout the week and on weekends. I like to visit my clients home, and meet the animals I will be caring for prior to the service to ensure I am equipped to provide excellent care that makes the animal comfortable and healthy, as well as provide the client a piece of mind. I cater to how my clients want their animals cared for and treated, each home is different and I try my best to meet my clients standards.
“Amy's the best. So sweet and did a great job caring for our little Willy. She sent me several photos and was available last minute to take care of our little guy. He looks like he had a great time with Amy and I trust her to watch him any time. Thank you for all your help!”

About: I grew up with dogs and recently owned 2 rescued dogs. I have land around my home and access to a wooded area with trails for longer walks. I am comfortable with caring for dogs in any facet. I am a teacher and I am looking for summer work. I am free every day until late August. I am willing to walk your dog in your neighborhood or board a dog over night. I have a stake in my yard for when my daughter visits with her 35 lb. Dog. Previous bigger dogs were walked on a leash at all times. I usually walk my dogs 1-2x daily for up to a 1/2 hour.
“I can’t thank Gil enough for the attentiveness, caring, and love he showed to my 15 yr old dachshund! Gil took the time to listen to my wife and me when we described to him our pup’s tendencies and hinderances. We felt confident as we pulled out of the driveway that our old guy was in great hands! Gil made sure to send us photos of our pup throughout the day, as well as updates on its evacuations (very important for an older dog). Overall, I can say unequivocally that Gil was a perfect sitter for our elderly pup, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter in that area! Kudos, Gil!”
“Sarah was amazing with my dog! She is very knowledgeable about animals and I had complete confidence that Hudson was in good hands. I highly recommend Sarah to take care of your pet with no hassles or worries. Thanks again!”
“This was my dog's first time with a Rover sitter. Lorinda did her best to get him settled. She understood he was not wanting to be social. She got her chair and stayed by him while he was in her fenced area. Couldn't ask for more.”
“Whitney and Kevin took our Boxer very last minute for a first time overnight. They sent plenty of photos and updates during his stay. I would absolutely use them again!”
“Heather was great with my little guy. I was heading to Cooperstown for a few hours and needed a place for him to stay while I was out and about. Heather sent me pictures and updates the few hours she had him. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend using Heather to watch your dog!”
About: Dog mom providing loving, reliable care for puppies, adults, and seniors. Patient, attentive, and committed to keeping every pet safe and happy, and comfortable always. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home with my Poms. This allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for one to two dogs per day, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and affection. I have my own home with a large patio area where pets can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Since it is not fenced, I always keep pets safely supervised and use their collar or leash when needed. I provide daily walks, exercise, playtime, and loving care while following each pet’s routine and needs.
“Our dog Luna had a fun day playing and going for walks, while we felt at-ease all day knowing she was in good hands. We would book again because we appreciated the periodic updates, pet-free home for focused attention, and responsiveness.”

Inside I have a gated play room with toys and a lounge for animals and I while indoors. For outside of my home I follow strict care instructions and close if not constant monitoring of animals
About: I live locally in Ilion and I feel that there is a need for great pet care service in our area. I love my dogs like they are my children. I will always treat your pets like I would want my pets treated when you're away. I work from home so I can make myself available to care for them at all times. I work from home from 9-5. I can do mornings, afternoons and night times. I will make sure to be in constant contact with photos and I have the ability to swing by during work hours. I love my two dogs. I will treat your pets like I'd want my pets treated by a caregiver. I know what it is like to leave town on vacation or a weekend away and worry about who will be watching your loved ones. I will love them and treat them like they are my own pets!
About: I have several years of experience with my adorable pup and lots of others! I would love to get to know your dog!! :) :) I am a college student home for the summer working at my part time job. (I work at a golf course as well.) I’m available everyday of the week, except for some weeknight afternoons and weekend mornings - but this changes frequently so my schedule is pretty open. I am extremely careful caring for pets, as I would want and expect for anyone to do for my dog as well. Nothing is ever left out for my pet to get into, doors/windows/etc are always shut, yard is fenced in and my dog is always leashed when I am with him, unless he is in our fenced in yard.
“Dennis and Dayna were wonderful and kind. Buster and Brin did so well we decided to book them for another day. Buster enjoyed the play time and came home nice and tired. Would not hesitate to used Dennis and Dayna again to care for my fur babies.”

About: I love all dogs regardless of size or breed. I’m quite active so if you have an energetic dog that needs to burn some energy, I am the gal for you. I love to take my dogs on adventures with me. Hiking, exploring, finding new trails. As long as they're up to date on their tick medication, we are good to go! :) I also love to groom dogs and more than happy to give them a bath (sometimes I do anyway after a muddy adventure) so that is an added bonus! I’m comfortable administering oral medication. I have my own vehicle that’s completely pet friendly so if I have to travel or take your dog somewhere, no problem! Bonus: I do have livestock experience as well! ****All I ask is that if you and your dogs enjoyed working with me, please leave me a review! It helps with bookings :) I work from home part time so I have lots of availability especially for drop ins and walks. It fits in perfectly with my schedule. I am willing to meet the pets many times beforehand to establish trust. If dogs are more on the adaptable side, I make sure we have a lot of fun while I visit, playing, walking, exploring etc. If dogs are a bit more unsure, I stick to their routine they are used to for comfort reasons.
About: I've had dogs my whole life. They're such a big part of me and I absolutely love meeting them. I'll follow any specifacation you may have for your dog. I love taking walks and playing with them. I will also feed additional pets that you may have or clean yards if needed. I am currently in college in the afternoon for an few hours on monday through thursday. I can stay at the owner's house if needed. However, I can also do visits to feed and let out if that is more comfortable for the owner. I often like to go on walk with dogs I am taking care of, they are always on the leash on these walks. I also enjoy going out in the yard to play with them. I am not opposed to crates.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes from a very genuine place in my heart. I have over 10 years of experience with dogs and have cared for my own, including Coco, who I adopted at 4 months old and is now 8, and Heidi, who is 7. I also helped care for Nico, a Pomeranian, and Nina, a Chihuahua, for 3 years, along with pet sitting for multiple dogs in clients’ homes in Austin, Texas. My dogs are incredibly special to me and have been emotional support companions through so much in my life, which is why I deeply understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I know they are not just pets, they are family. I recently moved from Austin, Texas to Hamilton, New York, and I’m excited to help local pet parents with drop-in visits and walks. I am very responsible, attentive, and understand that every dog has different needs. I always do my best to follow care instructions closely, provide updates and pictures, and make each visit as personalized as possible. I also prefer meeting dogs with their owner first when possible, so everyone feels comfortable. My goal is to make you feel confident that your dog will be safe, loved, and very well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work managing my own cleaning and management business from home which gives me flexibility in my schedule. Right now I offer drop-in visits and walks only, so I care for pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel most familiar and safe. I always want to follow the owner’s routine and instructions as closely as possible, because I know every dog is different. For drop-in visits, I can help with potty breaks, fresh water, feeding, playtime, and companionship. For walks, I make sure dogs are safe, comfortable, and getting the attention and exercise they need. I’m also happy to send picture updates so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. My goal is to make every visit feel dependable, caring, and personalized.
About: I grew up with dogs and now own 4 of my own. I have volunteered at a local shelter to walk and play with their dogs. And I’m in the process of becoming a professional dog trainer. I have raised 3 puppies so I am able to potty train and do basic obedience I am currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to walk and play with your dog(s). I am also available for drop-ins to take your dog(s) out during the day if needed I have a large fenced in yard and live on 5 acres. I have access to state and farm lands close by with a lot of nature trails that is great for any reactive dogs. I also have a lot of back roads that aren’t busy with traffic if that’s more of your dog(s) preference
About: By hiring an experienced and professional pet sitter, your pet will be able to suffer much less stress by staying in their own home and sleeping in their own bed. Additionally, there will be no exposure to dangerous illness from other animals, and I will provide the extra TLC they'll need while you're away. You can trust me, and feel confident your pet is in capable, caring hands while you're away from home. I offer "Meet & Greet" interviews for first time clients (within 15 miles from Middleton, TN), because I want you to feel comfortable with the whole process, and with me. My goal is to give you the peace of mind you'll need when you are away, and to make your return convenient, easy, and hassle-free. (Meet & Greets over 15 miles away from Middleton will incur a $1/mile travel fee for each mile over the first 15.) My rates are very reasonable. Rather than charging by the hour, I charge by the day, which makes it much more affordable for my clients. I can provide references of past customers upon request. I am also available to watch your pet in my home (my dogs are very socialized with both dogs and cats), but I have found that it's more convenient for me, and far less stressful for your pet if they're allowed to stay in the comfort of their own home. Depending on your distance from me, I can visit your pets 2 - 3 times each day, for 30 - 45 minute intervals, or I can stay at your home for as long as you'd like me to, including overnights, if that's what you prefer. I am very flexible and will work with you to set up a schedule and system that works best for you and your pet. You can also rest easy knowing that I am insured while in your home. I have experience administering medications for both cats and dogs. I will also walk them, play with them (of course!), snuggle and love them like my own, and do whatever other activities you'd like me to do. I have taken care of as many as 5 dogs at one time for a week or more, so no pet sitting job is too difficult for me, because when you love animals like I do, it never seems like work! :) Please contact me today to discuss your needs so I may provide you with a quote, and thank you for considering me for the care of your precious pets! ~ Lolly Winne LollyPup Pet Sitting F.A.Q. 1. How many visits are there per day? The number of visits is determined by you, the pet owner. Normally, cats require only one or two visits per day, unless medications need to be given. Dogs usually have two to three visits per day at morning, midday and evening, but the number of visits and time of visits are at the client's discretion. 2. How long are the visits? The length of each visit depends on the client's needs. The average visit lasts 30-45 minutes, but longer visits may be requested and the price would be adjusted accordingly. 3. Will you provide services other than animal care? I can also bring in the mail, open/close blinds as needed, take out the trash, clean litter boxes as needed, turn lights on or off, etc. to provide your house the security it needs while you're away. 4. What will happen if my pet becomes ill while I am away? You will sign a vet release form at the time of the first visit. If you're pet becomes ill while you are away, I will contact you first, unless I deem it to be an emergency. In the case of an emergency, I will take your pet to the vet you indicated on the vet release form. If their office is closed, I will take your pet to the emergency vet clinic. 5. Will you spend the night? I am available to do overnight stays on most occasions. This type of visit usually requires more advance notice so that I can mark those dates on my calendar. 6. What if you are ill and can't take care of my pets? If I have an emergency or become ill, my fiancé and my cousin are my backups. They both love dogs just as much as I do and are both very experienced, and will make sure your pet receives the same love and attention as well as the specific services you requested.

Thank you for your assistance, my clients and their pets appreciate your thoughtfulness. THANK YOU! :) About this sitter: Anyone who knows me would say I'm a HUGE animal lover. I have a special place in my heart for dogs. If I pass by someone walking their dog, I've been known to turn around, go back, and ask the owner if I can pet them. Yes, this typically results in the weirdest expressions, but hey, their dogs totally love me! LOL A little about me... I'm 50 years young and live in Middleton, TN with my wonderful husband and our 3 small sweet fur babies (2 shih tzus and a bichon/poodle mix). I have 2 grown children and an 8 year old Pit Bull named Jax who lives with them in Murfreesboro, TN. I'm originally from upstate NY (born & raised 4 hours north of NYC, in cow country!) but moved to the south to be with the love of my life. :) I worked in a kennel years ago, so I've handled virtually every type of dog there is, and there was never a time when my family didn't have a dog or two in the house growing up. I've been jokingly called "The Dog Whisperer", as I'm known for befriending dogs that are normally unapproachable. The bottom line? I LOVE DOGS! Honestly? I think I must've been a dog in a past life... LOL ;) I will happily watch your pet in my home, however I much prefer to travel to your home to take care of them, where they are happiest and the least stressed. I'm willing to travel anywhere, as long as my travel expenses are covered. Please contact me today for a quote. :) I have been pet sitting for about 15 years now. Please read the testimonials provided by several of my past clients. :) About my yard: I have a large, fenced in back yard where the dogs can run free and get plenty of exercise. There's plenty of room for multiple dogs. My experience administering medication: I've done this countless times. This has never been an issue for me. I don't work a regular job because I have my own businesses. This allows me the luxury of making my own schedule and working from home, so I am able to stop whatever I'm working on an any given time to take care of any animals that are in my care. It's truly the perfect side job for me. At my home, I have 2 fenced areas that I can use for when your dog(s) need to go out, otherwise they'll be inside with me getting lots of love. They would never be let out unsupervised as I'd never want to take a chance of them escaping. (My goats are known for this so they've made me paranoid. Lol) Oh, and by the way, I have Valais Blacknose sheep (a.k.a. the "world's cutest sheep!") and Nigerian Dwarf goats who all stay in their own fenced pasture together. I also have two very sweet LGDs who are wonderful with other dogs, but stay in the pasture and lean-to (attached to my house) with them at all times to protect the animals and property from coyotes. And they do their job extremely well! At your home, I will follow whatever instructions you provide for the care of your fur babies, and I'll send you text updates everyday, including pictures and video.

We will talk about your pets likes and dislikes, any medications or special needs they have and any other information I need to know to provide the best care possible for your pet. I always treat every client’s home with the same respect I treat my own and I treat every dog I meet as if they were my own.

I maintain situational awareness at all times, this helps ensure the safety of everyone including your pets. I do my best to send photos and updates during every visit so you can have peace of mind that your fur babies are in good hands.
“Dennis is personable, prompt, and flexible. He offers a variety of services for your canine companion. I appreciated his very thoughtful observation of my dog’s body language, behavior, and preference cues - Elliot can take a moment to warm up to new friends and lives to play with his flirt stick. I would, without reservation, recommend Dennis as your walker, play date companion, and house sitter.”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Becky! From our first interaction, it was clear how genuinely caring, responsible, and attentive they were. She took the time to get to know our dog’s personality and little quirks, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the stay, we received consistent updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made it so easy to relax knowing our pup was in such great hands. It honestly felt like our dog was on their own little vacation. What really stood out was the level of detail and effort. Becky and her daughter went above and beyond in every way. Whether it was sticking to her feeding and supplement schedules, making sure our dog got plenty of love and attention, extra attention to her needs (it was a change of seasons aka shedding time and they gave her lots of extra care and brushing to keep her comfortable!), it was all so appreciated. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but I would 100% book Becky again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, you’ve found the one!”
“Angela watched our almost one year-old golden retriever Brady for Memorial Day weekend. I received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Brady had a great time and was loved and cared for. I would definitely recommend Angela and will be using her in the future.”
“Spritz is always excited when we arrive at Kevin and Whitney's. We receive pictures of him during his visit. Kevin and Whitney are very pleasant and Spritz enjoys having a play date. Highly recommend Kevin and Whitney.”
“Jenna and her husband and their sweet dog Stitch were amazing with Ramsey, who was with them for about 2 weeks! Jenna was very good about sending pics every day and I loved that Ramsey had another dog (or dogs) to play with! I would absolutely enlist their services again.”
“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”
“I was very anxious about leaving any of my dog with a sitter, as I have never left any of them with anyone before. I was very pleased how my fur family was taken care of, (he definitely goes above and beyond for your babies) I would definitely recommend him as well as use his services again in the future.”
“What can I say about Lorinda? She provided exceptional care for my two dogs on a two week private at home boarding at her house. Her communication and responsiveness was 10 out of 10. She was incredibly flexible and helpful with logistics and some special accommodations we needed. When the state got extended and the dogs ran out of food, she was kind enough to go to two different stores to pick up what they like. She is very professional and reliable, and I feel very comfortable being out of the country, knowing that my dogs are with her.”
“Cassandra was amazing with my Sophia who is an older dog with a few senior issues. We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anne”
“Jeannys was absolutely amazing. If I could give her more stars I would. She took care of my stray who I found abandoned on the side of the road in the beginning of summer. Molly is a little shy and nervous but she went right with Jeannys and seemed SO comfortable which reassured me. Jeannys constantly updated me with photos and videos! She also took Molly out and about like she was her own dog! I will definitely be using Jeannys for Molly in the future!”
“Nicole was a lifesaver! After getting over booked at a kennel during Cooperstown Baseball season, she came to my rescue. Great communication, flexible, easy to work with, updated me with pictures and she even trimmed my puppy nails. Highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve took care of dogs of all kinds ever since I could remember, cats too! I’ve helped many many liter of puppies and raised them! I also worked at Paws and Claws which is a doggy daycare and boarding! I can very well sense personality and what they need! I treat them like members of a family and never let them go without care. I’m currently going to college and looking for a part time job, but will always make time for your furry friend, and would be willing to move things around! I currently have a dog who loves to play and a husky who is full of energy! And two cats who are just cuddle bugs, we have a park near by so we can go play, and I can easily crate your dog if needed and have plenty plenty of toys!
“My dog spent a great week with Gianna! When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals truly stood out. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend Gianna to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their pets. Thank you for making my time away completely stress-free!”
