“Our dog had a great stay with Allan and his family. He was flexible, sent daily updates and photos, and our pup came home happy, stress free, and healthy. We would have our dog stay with Allan again anytime.”
“Zuri is an absolutely amazing puppy caregiver! She took care of our puppy for several days and treated her like one of her own. We got constant updates and pictures of our sweet girl. Any fears or unease was quickly put to rest after meeting Zuri. Summer enjoyed her stay and even missed her “second “ family when we picked her back up. I would recommend Zuri for boarding hands down! Her entire family was amazing. She is so kind, caring, professional and compassionate. We were blessed to find her. She is extremely knowledgeable about pets and is always willing to go the extra mile for you. We will definitely be back for as long as she will have us!”
“Jennifer has been very professional and on the top of everything, including keeping me updated with pictures and sending me timely text updates. Her diligence and communication has been excellent.”
“We highly recommend Skip and Mary! Blue is hard to win over and he was snuggling with them before the end of the first night. They are clearly dog lovers, and they are a perfect fit if your dog is used to having someone at home often, loves walks, snuggles, but is not comfortable around children. Thank you for taking such good care of Blue!”
“I recently boarded my dog, Wolfie, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. He was walked every day, and it was clear he had a fantastic time. The picture updates were a wonderful touch; they showed just how happy he was. Jayden and his family who took care of Wolfie was truly wonderful, providing exceptional service and demonstrating a high level of professionalism. The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”
“Janelle was amazing with our guy Oscar. We had to find someone last minute, as the person we had needed to back out. She took very good care of him and gave us daily updates as well as pics. She is a lover of all animals and it shows by the way she interacts with them. I will definitely be asking her to watch Oscar the next time we need someone and will recommend her to all of our family and friends!!”
“Kristin was perfect for our quiet shy dog. It was a first time using any dog sitting service, so my recommendation is meet more than one sitter and trust your gut and heart. Our dog was very comfortable with Kristin and her house/surroundings when we met, and she ate her food the first morning of her stay so I knew she was happy. Thank you, Kristin, for providing this service to other dog owners🥰”
“Our old dog’s first time being dog sat away from home and she loved it. Lots of playtime, no scary cages and lots of cuddles. When we went outside today she headed for the truck, ready for another fun time! Excellent caregiver!”
“LaTonya was amazing! I left my energetic six month old puppy with her right in the middle of a bad teething stage and she was great! She sent multiple photos throughout the day along with frequent updates on how he was doing! My puppy had never been away from me for a night or stayed with anyone else and she was SO patient with him! Her having her own dogs is a HUGE plus since I think it was a big reason why my puppy got settled so quickly. I would recommned her to anyone!”
“Ashly is very nice and helpful. Oliver was first time with baby seater so we were worried. Ashly handled him very well. When we picked him up,he was very happy and fresh.”
“Erin was amazing with our dog Kenai! She watched him for us while we went on our honeymoon and truly made Kenai feel at home! She sent plenty of updates and pictures to give us space of mind and we could tell Kenai just loved her and her dog Baz when we went to pick him up! I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”
“Millie is so well cared for, which puts our minds at ease while we travel! We received videos and photos of her playing and we get her back with a nice soft coat as she gets brushed. This was Millie’s 2nd stay and we will return again!!”
“Cindie is very attentive and detail-oriented, and she made sure we were 100% comfortable about leaving our puppy with her for the weekend. She also was kind enough to send us updates and photos while we were away, which was a really nice touch! I definitely recommend her as a dog-sitter!”
“Kristie took great care of Louis! She made sure to send photo and video updates to me throughout the day which helped to reassure me he was in great care. I really appreciate how she accepted us as clients even though we needed last minute booking! Will definitely be a returning client 😊🙏🏼”
“Sandy took great care of our girl Phoebe(dog) sent pictures and updates daily. She played with her and spoiled her while we were on vacation. Would highly recommend Sandy. Will definitely use her service again. Thanks Sandy for all your care with Phoebe!”
“Debra was so good with our Texas, she’s the only person we trust to leave him with. The moment I walked into her house, I felt all of my worries melt away because I could tell he was going to have a fun weekend. And he did!! Debra was very flexible and accommodating with him. She’s the only person we will be leaving our dog with from now on.”
“Barb and her family went above and beyond to make sure my pup felt at home, and she sent daily photo updates. Communication was excellent and timely. I will definitely be requesting Barb again next time we leave town.”

“Natasha was wonderful! She was very thorough and communicative, and we never had to worry about our cats while we were away because she was so on top of everything. She spent plenty of time with them on each visit, and also kept us updated with lots of photos. Our cats are senior citizens and need medications, so they're not the easiest to take care of, but Natasha handled everything incredibly well. We would happily have her watch our cats again.”
About: Growing up I took care of my neighborhood’s pets while they were away. I also lived with a dog of my own growing up as well as 2 cats while in college. I frequently took care of my friends and coworkers pets while in college. I work at a hospital from 2-10:30pm most days, I’m free every morning until then and can walk, stop by, or do whatever is needed for your pet :) If you let me know any specific way your pet needs to be cared for, I’ll do exactly that.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Metamora
“It was the first time we’d left our little one with a dog sitter, and we were a little worried because ever since we adopted her, she’s always been very shy and tends to be afraid of strangers, but Jenifer was amazing with Hazel. She was extremely friendly and kept us updated on our little ball of fur, making her feel like she was part of a second family. My husband and I are very happy—we’ll definitely be back.”
About: Hello! My name is John’Asia. As you may see by viewing my photos, I have a huge heart for fur babies. It all started when I volunteered at a local animal shelter in my hometown. I fell in love with the idea of taking care of the pups/kittens there. That’s when I decided to start my own business in the pet care industry! This is not just a business this is my passion/dream job! I do not have any pets of my own, therefore I treat all of the furbabies as my very own under my care. I am here to provide you the best service for your family member. I am trustworthy, energetic, reliable and prompt. I am very excited to meet everyone’s pets! I am really hoping to attract repeat and long term fur besties. Also, I will require a meet and greet with me. Thank you! I am a full time pet care provider. My schedule is open from 9AM - 8PM Monday - Saturday for walks & visits. 24hrs/7days a week for housesitting & boarding. Don’t worry, your fur baby is in great hands. I will be sure to send you daily photos of your fur baby for your comfort. Drop Ins & Walks: I love the excitement of fur babies when I come in because they know it’s play/snack time when they see me lol! Also, if you need me to feed or clean up a possible accident, that’s not a problem! Boarding: I treat all pups as my own while under my care. Your pup will go everywhere (Bike Rides, dog park, summer events, trails, etc.) with me except other homes I service! Your pup will feel like he/she is on vacation as well!! Did you see the new play area & boarding area I created. Check out my photos!!!!!! Lol they will have a great time & it will show in the daily pictures! **Disclaminer the back yard park & playhouse are no longer effective due to me moving into an apartment** Housesitting: Same as boarding but in the comfort of their home! Your pup will go everywhere (dog park, dog events, trails, etc.) with me except other homes I service! & Ofcourse they can sleep in the bed with me!! Lol Bike Rides: If you would like to book a bike ride, please request through walk or visit! -Best Pawjama Pawties In Town!!
“If you’re looking for someone in the Fort Drum area, you found her. Maddie is very quick to get ahold of, and is beyond flexible. I was delayed one night to pick up Eva from daycare and Maddie was quick to offer to let her stay the night, that helped very much. Also, Eva was so relaxed there, she really wasn’t in a hurry to leave; which never happens.”
About: I care for dogs by keeping them on a consistent routine and paying close attention to their individual needs. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, and safe, supervised play time. I follow feeding instructions exactly, keep water fresh, and maintain clean food and water bowls. I also watch for behavior or appetite changes and communicate anything important right away. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, and I take time to build trust so dogs feel comfortable and secure. Whether a dog is high-energy or laid-back, I adjust my approach to match their personality. As an active duty Army service member and lifelong dog owner since age 15, I bring reliability, structure, and genuine care to every pet I look after. Follow him on IG: GrimMboy_pdC I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and my job is only about 15 minutes from my apartment, so I can return home quickly if needed. My spouse works from home, so pets in my care are supervised 24/7. I’m an Active Guard/Reserve service member and typically work one weekend per month — I plan all pet care commitments around that schedule. I’m up daily at 4:30 AM and keep a very structured routine, so feeding times, walks, potty breaks, and exercise schedules are followed consistently. I also have a home camera system to monitor pets throughout the day. On most weekends, I spend the day out and active with my own dog, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise. You may notice my rates are on the lower end. that’s by design! I keep my prices affordable and let my work speak for itself. If you feel I went above and beyond, a tip is how I know I nailed it. No pressure at all, but it means the world when people show their appreciation that way. I’m committed to giving your pet the best care possible regardless! I provide a safe, structured, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like family. Pets in my care are allowed to comfortably roam the home and are not kept in a crate all day. I have an American Bully in the home who is friendly and fully up to date on all vaccinations. All dogs are kept on leash during outdoor time for safety. I keep the home clean, remove hazards, and maintain fresh water and feeding areas daily. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavior guidelines. I also use a home camera system to monitor pets when I step out. While I don’t normally crate dogs, I can crate your pet if needed or if that is your preference.
“Maxi hadn’t been to Emily’s in a while and he was so excited when we dropped him off. Evidence right there of how great she is. She’s very responsive and keeps in touch with pictures and/or videos while Maxi is there. We don’t think you could find a more caring sitter.”
About: Hi, I’m Ariel! I’m a former nurse and now a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. Caring for others has always been a big part of who I am, and that same compassion extends to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a comforting presence while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care. As someone who is home throughout the day, I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are things I genuinely look forward to. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure each pet gets the time, consistency, and care they deserve while they’re with me I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality, energy level, and routine
“I had an amazing experience with Rachel watching my 1 year old dog, Dash, this past Wednesday. From the start, Rachel was professional, friendly, and attentive to Dash's needs. This was our first experience with Rover and doggy daycare. She helped us with navigating the app. Rachel even sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Dash was clearly happy and relaxed when I got home, which is the best sign of a great dog sitter. I highly recommend Rachel.”
About: My wife and I have taken care of dogs for a long time. We understand that every dog has special needs. We are receptive to all breeds I am currently retired and my wife works part time. We have the time to give your dog special attention. Very little time will your dog be alone We have a fenced in yard with a suburban setting. We have a puppy that loves other dogs.

“I felt so comfortable being out of town even though I missed my baby❤️.She updated me everyday how Diamond was doing,sent pictures.I would really recommend her to keep your pet very good with animals.I will be taking Diamond back if I have to go out of town again.”
“Arling and Mary took great care of my 8-month-old Pomeranian pup. He was comfortable and content with them and they took him on multiple walks and provided great care! Sent updates and took photos. Would use them again in the future and recommend.”
“Samantha took care of our 5 month old puppy and she was great! He stayed over night with her and he had a great time! Her dog gets along with others and Tito was so excited to have a playmate for the day! She has experience with fostering dogs so she definitely knows how to care for them! Would recommend anyone to her for day care needs!!”
“Celene is legitimately the best dog sitter you could ask for. She not only is an early riser but is a night owl. Celene sends updates and ask questions without even being asked. She not only puts effort in towards jaxsons training she has even went out of her way to teach us on how we could be doing different/better. Celene also makes sure that jaxson gets the proper food/water/bathroom breaks as he needs. He doesn't come back hungry, needing to potty, or beat up. Penny, celenes dog, is hands down the cutest little thing I've ever seen. When I get there she is happy to greet me at the door with kisses and tail wags. Jaxson also loves penny and always comes back PROPERLY wore out. My final thoughts are if I could had another grandma I would ask her. Shes been there for us EVERY time we've need her and that's at the end of the day all I could ask.”
About: My sister and I moved back to our home town and moved in together (along with my 10 year old niece and my 2 year old daughter). Both of us have had pets all our lives, including owning dogs from as small as 20 pounds to as large as 120 pounds. My doggie Odie stayed with my ex in California and our current family recently and unexpectedly lost my sister’s mini-Poochon, Cosmo. We recently adopted a Labradoodle! Grover is super sweet and loves to have playmates but also understands how to give other dogs space. My 2 year old loves all animals and understands how to give dogs space and to read physical cues (lip curl, growl), but unfortunately, we can’t dog sit or board any dogs that aren’t okay with small children. We are okay with dogs that need some extra care (meds, help going outside to potty, etc.). We have a large fenced yard and we welcome pups in all parts of our house. Thanks! I work from home, my sister watches my two year old in the house, and my 10 year old niece does online school so lots of options for care and cuddles. My parents are also just a few minutes away if we ever need back up! We have a large fenced yard and can do walks as needed (although with some limits when the weather is super cold). We welcome pups in all parts of our house including bedrooms on the second or first floor if pups have a hard time with stairs.
About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Growing up, I cared for my own small dog and regularly watched family members’ and neighbors’ dogs through walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’ve also expanded my experience by volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I walk and care for dogs with a wide range of personalities and energy levels. I have delt with numerous dogs with high energy personalities or sometimes ones with bad behavior habits. I always handle situations with care and would love to wear your dog out! I genuinely love being around animals and always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m very attentive, reliable, and responsible, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, providing exercise and enrichment, or simply giving dogs lots of attention and affection. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re my own and provide the best care possible. When visiting your fur baby I would love to take them on a walk have a good play session and give them all the attentive care they need! I have a very open availability and if I get a request enough in advance, I am willing to take off work in order to work around my client's schedule! Even if I do have work, it is part-time only for a couple of hours and can care for your furry loved ones right when I get off! With my current situation, I am only able to care for large pets such as dogs in my client’s home. I have a reliable mode of transportation meaning I can drive myself whenever needed. I have plenty of space in an extra room to care for small pets if that is the case!

During time on walks, I will provide your animals with a water, have a ball or toy of some sort for some play time if wanted, and a leash!
About: Hi! My name is Jayden and my wife Lisa and I are excited to care for your pup like they’re part of our family. Lisa works from home and I work a hybrid schedule, so there will almost always be someone home with your dog to give them attention, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day. We also have 2-year-old twins who absolutely love dogs and are used to being around them. We always make sure interactions are gentle, safe, and fun for everyone. We have a 1-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Redford who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around to play with. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we live in a great neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Your pup will get at least two long walks every day, plus as many potty breaks as they need. We love getting outside and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with us! I am completely free on the weekends. Happy to do drop in visits or walks. I am also free during the evenings and during lunch hours on Wednesday and Friday. Let me know what schedule will work well for your pet. I will treat your pets like they are my own. I will make sure to give them the love and attention that they need and carefully look over your instructions to make sure they are properly cared for.

About: Hi I am Cindie, I am mom to two rescued girls that I have adopted, one is a Yorkie and the other is a" Morkie" which is a Maltese Yorkie mix, they are both under the age of 11 and are very lovable and easy-going and love to be around other dogs, they would love to share their large back yard with you! It is completely fenced in and gated with lots of lush grass to run and play in. There is a large wooden deck connected to the back of the house that gives them free reign in and out of the house to access of the doggie door anytime day and night, We have pet friends on both sides of us, our neighborhood is very pet friendly, we have lots of friends that live here that would love to come out and visit with us when you come over! Inside of the house is very comfortable also, we are allowed on the furniture, we have lots of toys to play with and we get special treats like carrots and chicken when we are good ! Our mom has lots of experience taking care of dogs, we didn't get to know our older "sister " Buffy,...because she crossed over the "Rainbow Bridge" before we were adopted, but every night the lights shine on her "Memorial Tree" in our backyard where she is "sleeping",.. Wayback in the day, Dr. Dillon at Saint Francis Veterinary Hospital took on Buffy when she was having problems getting the rest of her large litter of nine puppies delivered, She was One of Dr. Dillon's very first patients about 20 years ago, and so you see our big sister "Buffy" is like a local celebrity because she helped Dr. Dillon get his start in Veterinarian Surgery...Wow!

“Zuri is an absolutely amazing puppy caregiver! She took care of our puppy for several days and treated her like one of her own. We got constant updates and pictures of our sweet girl. Any fears or unease was quickly put to rest after meeting Zuri. Summer enjoyed her stay and even missed her “second “ family when we picked her back up. I would recommend Zuri for boarding hands down! Her entire family was amazing. She is so kind, caring, professional and compassionate. We were blessed to find her. She is extremely knowledgeable about pets and is always willing to go the extra mile for you. We will definitely be back for as long as she will have us!”

The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”

She is a lover of all animals and it shows by the way she interacts with them. I will definitely be asking her to watch Oscar the next time we need someone and will recommend her to all of our family and friends!!”
“Kristin was perfect for our quiet shy dog. It was a first time using any dog sitting service, so my recommendation is meet more than one sitter and trust your gut and heart. Our dog was very comfortable with Kristin and her house/surroundings when we met, and she ate her food the first morning of her stay so I knew she was happy. Thank you, Kristin, for providing this service to other dog owners🥰”

I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up in a home filled with pets of all kinds. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including those with special medical needs or health conditions. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience and attention, I’ll provide compassionate, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I currently own a business and have a very flexible schedule with plenty of time to care for my furry friends! I live with my husband and two boys ages 10 & 15; who are also very helpful with any pet needs especially play time and walks. I prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being by providing a clean, secure, and loving environment. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, a pet-free home with no other animals, and I always maintain close supervision, follow routines, and give each pet the individual attention they deserve.
