My dog enjoyed the walks and seemed very happy with her. Thanks, Eden, and best wishes for the future. I will definitely consider her services for my dogs again.”

“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.”

About: I'm an enthusiastic dog walker and sitter that has a passion for dogs and rescuing them. I have been involved in dog rescue and fostering in the Syracuse area for a number of years. I've cared for a number of my own dogs and cats from young to seniors. I've also been a foster parent to a number of dogs when rescues needed someone. I can handle the most challenging of dogs down to little babies and everything in between. Your dog will get plenty of love and attention when I'm around! I give all dogs the same love and affection I would give my own dog and see the importance of cuddle and buddy time along with good exercise. I show confidence when I'm with a dog so that they know there is trust with me from the beginning. I currently work part time, so have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I am always available after 3:00 p.m. during the week, before 8:00 a.m. or anytime on the weekends. I've got a very pet friendly home. I live in a single story, ranch house that has a fully fenced back yard. I do not have children at home that we would need to worry about and I'm very respectful if needed to go into a client's home. Safety and security are always at the forefront.
“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.”

“Although my schedule was very indefinite Susan was flexible and I so appreciated this! Her care was excellent as evidenced by my dog bolting into her home as I dropped her off for her ‘vacation’…”

“Ashley & Matt are wonderful sitters! They are very accommodating, maintain communication, and send lots of pictures. They made our dogs feel welcome and at home.”

“Absolutely love Marisol! She’s sweet, caring, nurturing, and holds a safe space for our puppy. Zero complaints about her service and will continue to book her as much as we can.”

“Georgianne was a great sitter. She posted picks regularly and gave me updates on how my cat was doing. She also responded very quickly whenever I messaged her. I would definitely leave my cat with Georgianne again.”

“Ashley took great care of our cats while we were away! We requested her last minute and she was able to fit us into the schedule. She is very kind and took the time to get to know our pets and their routines. Highly recommend!”

“Crystal was awesome! Helio is very shy and she was only able to see him when she came to get the key. So instead of play pictures Crystal took pictures of his food for us. I'm hoping after a few trips he will be curious enough to come out when he hears her. In time I'm sure they will be buddies ?”


“This was my first time getting a cat sitter and Adam did his thing. Definitely a 10/10 my cats went from saying who this man to heeeey friend and that itself says a lot! Thank you ssooooooo much!”

“Alison & Robert were amazing sitters for my cat. They were friendly and quick to reply while booking and provided so much communication (including photos and videos) while watching my cat which made me feel so much better while away. It is clear that they both adore animals and are experienced watching them. Will absolutely be booking Alison & Robert again!”

“This was our second time booking Kilie for our two finicky cats. She was totally on top of things, and everything went perfectly smoothly. Having someone we can trust, and who’s so easy to work with, makes us feel much more comfortable traveling away from home, even just for a day or two. Thanks again, Kilie! We’ll be booking again soon!”

“Jaime wa phenomenal! She took such amazing car of my kitties and followed directions perfectly! She is welcome anytime in our home! She has made 3 new best friends with my kitties heheh. She sent the best pictures daily! I'm so thankful for her! Thank you Jamie!”


“Can’t thank Kirsten enough for taking such good care of my Potter!! This was the first time my husband and I took an extended vacation (8 days) without having someone house sit as well and Kirsten made sure potter was comfortable with each visit. I got atleast 5 pictures with every visit and I just know he loved her coming to spend time. Will 100% be requesting Kirsten again!”

“Kristin was thoughtful and gave me cute updates with pictures everyday! She took great care of my cat and always made sure she was well-fed and had fresh water. My cat also loved her! I would trust her to take care of my cat anytime I need.”

“Meghanne was fantastic taking care of my 14 year old cat, Gizzy. She gave her lots of love and attention, spending a significant amount of time with her on each drop in visit. It really put me at ease having her and her expertise looking out for my "girl".”

“My very shy cat opened up to her very quickly. She leaves very thorough updates and takes a lot of nice pictures. She always makes sure we are on the same page with care, etc.”

“Annie was just great! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our cats with her. She took excellent care of them and administered their medications with no problem. Plus she sent us plenty of pictures so we missed them a little less on our trip!”

“Julie is incredibly kind with Romina and treats her as if she were her own cat. She kept me updated with photos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. She made sure Romina was well fed, spent time playing with her, and even slept beside her. It was clear that Romina was loved and cared for the entire time. I’m so grateful and would absolutely trust Julie with Romina again.”


“Amanda did a great job with my fur babies! Already rebooked for my next trip. Great with communication and quick responses when ask for her availability. Thank you for the great service.❤️”


“Morgan was AMAZING!!! She watched my two bunnies while I went on vacation and I think they like her more than me. I have never seen my bunnies more happy! Morgan was the first person (not a family member) who watched them and I will definitely be using her in the future!”


“Matt is so great! We felt very comfortable and confident in him during our recent trip out of town. He was very responsive and respectful. He did great with the cats, made sure they had food/water, clean litter, and played with them every day. He was willing to stop by before we left town so we could give him the spare key and show him where the cat supplies were. We will definitely be planning to book him again for future needs.”


“We had a wonderful experience with Skyler! She was very reliable and a great communicator throughout the entire time we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our cat can be shy at first, but she warmed up to her immediately. We felt our cat was in great hands. Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve had cats my whole life! Currently, I own two cats that I’ve had since since they were kittens. One of them is 8 years old, and the other is 5 years old. My friends and family usually leave their cats with me when they’re away so I have experience taking care of other people’s cats!

“Eden not only cares for Luna but understands her uniqueness and sensitivity. Luna is playful and relaxed at their loving home. Thank you Eden and Gal and Happy Holidays! ⭐️❤️”

“She was amazing! Neemo has a lot of anxiety and she took care of him and made him feel at ease! I've never seen him come back so calm after staying with someone. Would definitely work with her again!”

“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.”

“We are so thankful for Erix. He accommodated us in a pinch. We are in town moving my niece into college and brought her dog, but we couldn’t bring him to the dorm. We had to switch hotels but weren’t able to get an early check in so we needed to figure a plan for our little Coco for just a few hours. I saw Erix’s profile and he had so many amazing reviews and he responded right away. Everything worked out perfectly and Erix was so sweet and took awesome care of our dog.”

“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!”

“Michelle is always incredible with our girl. Tofu comes home with the biggest smile on her face and always smells wonderful. I think “Miss Michelle” (what we call her to Tofu) must keep an incredibly tidy and lovely-smelling home :)”

“Christalle is the best! She watched my pup during the work day and was so attentive to him. He had so many walks and play sessions and was truly tired at the end of the day… which is hard to do with such a high energy little guy. She was patient with my schedule and clearly loves animals.”

“Tofu got to spend time with Brent—booked last minute for a forgotten work meeting—and even went for a ride in the car! She came home safe, clean, and happy. We absolutely trust Brent with our girl!”

“My little dog, Honeybun, has separation anxiety. Leidy was so patient and kind that it put Honeybun right at ease. I definitely recommend Leidy and will be using her for doggy daycare in the future.”

“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!”

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 dogs were well cared for and tired out when we picked them up! Extra attention was given to special dietary instructions for one of them and pick up and drop off was efficient. We were glad to use them again and know they were in good hands!”

About: I have operated a pet sitting biz for 20 plus years in central NY. I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and groom their pets. I am semi retired and available everyday anytime of the day to care for your dogs, cats in my home or yours, so you can get away without a worry. Its quiet and calm here for the young, old or nervous ones. I have Sabrina and Ziggy that are always friendly and reassuring. I have 2 friendly labs. I have lots of time to devote. Big fenced yard, we go for plenty of walks or just snuggle on the couch. I have a life long love for dogs, cats and horses. Your pet will be welcome in my non smoking, clean home or happy to house sit also. Whichever is better for you and your pets(s).
“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!!”


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 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!

“Kaylah was AMAZING!!! Very sweet person, her and Maximus hit it off right as soon as she walken in the door. She walk him everyday as sheduled and even walked him longer than planned. after every walk she sent us pictures of their walk. She feed and watered him after every walk. We will definitely be reaching out to book her again!!! Thanks Kaylah!!”

“Adriana was an incredible help with our nervous dog who can be a bit ~weird~ with strangers; she had our boy snuggling on the couch with her in just one weekend. She gives great updates and calmed every worry we had this weekend.”

“Carly was absolutely fantastic! She was perfectly on time, brought a wonderful, positive energy, and came prepared with treats. My pup was clearly happy and excited to walk with her, and I felt instantly comfortable and confident in her care. I'll definitely be booking her again very soon!”

“Candy was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She was incredibly punctual and brave enough to come out even in the bitter cold, which we really appreciated. I was especially impressed by how she connected with our new rescue; she was empathetic, patient, and really understood what our pup needed. We will definitely be asking for her time again in the future. Overall, a great experience!”

“Elizabeth took great care of our 10 month old high energy pup Willow while we were in town ! She took her on a few walks and fed her despite a lot of chaos, we would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone.”

“Jill was absolutely fantastic. She walked our Chihuahua, Mocha, for several days a week over about a month while my wife and I were both working, and she was incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring throughout. Mocha can be anxious around new people and situations, but Jill was patient with her and quickly earned her trust. She always followed our instructions, kept us updated, and went above and beyond by giving attention to our two cats as well, which we really appreciated. Knowing Mocha was in such good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind during the workday. We were sad to see her leave to return to college, but we’re very grateful for all of her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter or dog walker. Thank you, Jill!”

About: Hello! I graduated high school in 2022. During my senior year I attended the Bixhorn Technological Center for Animal Science Boces. There I learned a plethora of skills and knowledge including but not limited to, both animal behavior and phycology, as well as husbandry, nutrition, and grooming. I am trained and capable of administering insulin, as well as I have experience caring for disabled and paralyzed dogs:) I first joined rover in 2024 while attending community college on Long Island, since then I’ve worked a variety of farm jobs as well. Most recently the Suffolk county farm; there I was responsible for the care and livelihood of a variety of livestock from poultry, goats, pigs, llamas, horses, and cows. Please feel free to reach out with questions about farm help as well I would love to do it again! I stepped back from rover this past year for personal reasons, however I just transferred to SUNY ESF and would love to get back into pet care! Right now, I am attending SUNY ESF here in Syracuse NY. I am looking to explore the city and help others with needed pet care :) I am available for overnight care if contacted in advance, but I am always available for regular potty breaks, walks, and play time as needed. I have experience both coming for visits and staying in home for pet sitting,

About: I live in Strathmore and work downtown. My absolute favorite things in life are my sons (who are amazing human beings!) and animals. Now that my sons are independent and out of the house, I enjoy being around and caring for animals. I have experience with all kinds of animals (e.g., dogs, cats, tarantulas, snakes, insects, and more). And I have had and loved dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from mini dachshunds with serious Napoleon complexes to larger-than-life Rottweilers and Great Danes. If you need a trustworthy, reliable, and affordable caregiver, feel free to reach out. :) Rate adjustments available based on financial need. 😊 I am flexible on evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to work around your needs and priorities. I work weekdays in downtown Syracuse. Near-by drop-ins are an option when needed. Completed first aid (for dogs and cats) courses because health and safety are always super important. I have a fenced-in yard and live next to Woodland Reservoir, a terrific place to walk! ✨

“Elizabeth was able to board my dog Manzie while I went out of town for a couple days during Thanksgiving. She was warm and welcoming, and Manzie felt at home right away.

She’s far more than a dog “sitter.” I will definitely book her again in the future.”
