“Alexandria was awesome. Easygoing, communicative, flexible and totally capable. We really appreciate her taking care of our sweet pup for the night! He came back happy as a clam.”
“Kelly is wonderful! She messaged us pictures of our dogs the entire time we were gone. She updated us on what they were doing and how they were. Our dogs are our children, so the updates made it easier to enjoy our time than worrying about them and how they were doing. They had many adventures and cuddles while we were away. She really knows what she is doing! Our dogs loved their stay. She even made sure to check in with us about dogs on the furniture, which was thoughtful! We are going out of town again very soon and in the summer. We plan on using Kelly in the future and will recommend her to our friends ?.”
“Spencer was perfect! He was very attentive and caring. My dog is a 15 year old senior with medical issues and he was super open to giving pet sitting with him a try and cared for him just as well (if not better) than we would've. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely hope to get Spencer again next time we need a trusted sitter.”
“Jennifer was wonderful with Joe. She pampered him during his visit with lots of snuggles, and even a park trip! Joe was very happy during his time with her. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Jessica and Matthew were awesome ?! They accepted Lincoln right into their home…Our dog Lincoln, is the epitome of a “golden retriever lap dog”! He is active and playful, but when relaxing he likes to be enmeshed with his caregivers. We were grateful for the funny pics of our boy while in their care! I believe Jessica and Matthew could take care of any breed, because of their competence and genuine love for dogs! Thank you, Lincoln will be back??”
“Angi is a very kind and understanding person and has so much love and compassion for animals! she took care of my pup for a whole week and he loved it there! she and her husband are very attentive and happy to take on any kind of need your dog has. even with a few dogs there, our dog Kirby had all the love and attention he needed. she was wonderful with keeping us updated throughout the week of how our boy was doing with lots of pictures. We will definitely be using her in the future and will continue to recommend her to my friends and family! thanks again Angi and Dave :)”

“Callie and Chloe stayed with Amanda for 3 nights while we visited the beautiful sights in Watkins Glen. I especially liked that she actually has a connection to a local vet. The pups seemed very happy and well cared for. She is very pleasant and was cooperative with some changing times.”

“Shelby was great! We had a relatively last minute booking and she was flexible and accommodating. She’s very on top of different needs and sent us pictures updates. Thank you so much, Shelby!”
“We highly recommend Amanda for your pet sitting needs. Our dog was welcomed into her family like one of her own. She kept us updated on how everything was going and sent several pictures. Her kids were great with our dog as well...playing, snuggling and even sleeping together. We felt comforted knowing our dog was safe and well cared for. We will definitely use Amanda again!”
About: I've taken care of pets since I was a child-- growing up with a large breed and small dog and two cats-- I've always loved animals. I have a large breed dog named Chewbacca and an adult indoor cat named Chase. Both are friendly with other animals, easy going, and playful. I work from home most days so I'm very available! I'm here in my house and I'm happy to offer lots of love, comfort, cuddles, and address any special dietary or medical needs when your pet stays with me! My older large dog is very sweet and sleeps most of the day, but he enjoys playing with other dogs and otherwise is great with cats and any other animals he encounters! I have a large fenced yard on just over an acre outside of Ithaca. Dogs can run and are very happy here when visiting! I am happy to supervise any bathroom breaks or keep your pet on a leash if you prefer them not running the large yard-- whatever feels most comfortable! I will follow your care instructions precisely to ensure your pet gets the love and attention needed.
“We had an amazing experience with Hanna as our dog sitter! She was incredibly responsible and caring. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of, and we received regular updates. Hanna truly went above and beyond. We highly recommend her services!”
“Karizma took care female husky, she has experience it’s huskies so when Sila seemed to be a bit anxious she communicated with me and we were able to see how Sila can be more comfortable during her stay. I appreciate the communication and care she demonstrated during sila’s stay.”

“Staci was a wonderful sitter for my senior cat, Cecil. CeCe needs medication daily, and also likes to spend some time outside in the back yard during the day. I received lots of pictures and came home to a clean house and happy kitty! I would gladly have Staci here again in the future! :)”
“Valkyrie enjoyed her time, Mika didn't have to take the garbage of cat litter out to the trashcan and she went above and beyond. Will be using her again when I go out of town for long times!!”
About: I’ve had cats since I can ever remember, and i’ve always been obsessed with them. I also worked with cats at my previous job. I’ve learned the connection between a human and a cat. I’ve learned how to make them feel comfortable for the most part, how to be their friend, how to be close, and more. I will treat your babies like they’re my own, and my own babies normal spoiled!
About: I love all kinds of cats and all different personalities. I am experienced in feeding, litter cleaning, and grooming cats. It may sound strange but I also am experienced in cat walking.
“We took a vacation to New Hampshire and it was fabulous. What made it even better was knowing that our cats (indoor and outdoor) would be taken care of by Kaylah. She took great care of our babies and texted us to let us know how they were doing. My one indoor cat is usually skiddish around new people but she was fine with Kaylah so that told me a lot.! We highly recommend her.”
“Jessica was great with my dog and my cat! I received video and photos during her visits. It appears she followed what I had laid out plan wise for them. I know some are a bit over the top like leaving on Pandora but she did as I asked, which I appreciate so very much. This was the first time I had someone that wasn't family watch my animals and I was anxious, but she did a great job. Thank you so much!”
About: **Animal Magnetic** Growing up with cats and dogs, caring for them became second nature to me. I also had the pleasure of dog-sitting for my sister while she worked as a long-haul truck driver, ensuring her furry friend received all the love and attention needed. Additionally, I took on the responsibility of pet sitting for my mother when she visited family and friends, showcasing my trustworthiness and capability. Moreover, I successfully kept a goldfish alive for over five years, demonstrating my dedication to the well-being of pets of all kinds. I am actively working with Instacart and DoorDash, which allows me the flexibility to manage my schedule. This freedom enhances my productivity and work-life balance, allowing me to take care of pets and family. I currently can’t have pets where I live, but I absolutely love visiting my mom, who has a spacious yard in the country. During my visits, I take her dog on long walks along the backcountry roads, allowing her to bark at wildlife from a safe distance. I also take charge of grooming and ensure the dog gets to veterinary appointments, making it easy for my mom to manage her responsibilities.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.
About: I am a huge animal lover with professional experience as a dog walker/sitter. Right now my schedule is pretty flexible. Ideally, I would like to find a few dogs that would like to be walked throughout the week or checked on. I have a 10 + years experience dog sitting short/long term. I'm able to provide great references for the pets I've cared for in the past! I am energetic, fun, and easy to get along with. I like to make the most out of our time together! I like to be outdoors as much as possible. If your dog is comfortable, I would love to take your dog to events, the dog park, and short hikes. Your dog will love the experience I will provide! Dogs usually immediately like me and feel comfortable around me. Dogs of all ages and sizes welcome! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your fue babies! I am currently working part-time. I have plenty of time, as well as a flexible schedule, to attend to your pet with my undivided attention. I pride myself on treating clients pets the same as my own, with lots of love and affection!

“Amanda was great! Winter was crazy and happy as usual when I picked her up from daycare with Amanda so it looked like she had a good time there and was a tired girl on the way home.”
“If there was >5 stars, this would be a time to use it! From the very beginning Janet was an absolute sweetheart, meeting me on the porch to grab my little guy, asking pertinent questions to be sure she was doing the best for him and even putting up low wires in her house to keep him from chewing them (puppy) Dash took to her immediately, tail wagging and kisses like she was an old friend of his, since dogs are a good judge of character, I just knew this was going to be a great day for him. From picture updates, to her summarizing their daily activities for me, I was totally at ease and had a happy heart with my decision to reach out to Janet to keep Dash for the day. She is simply the best!”
“Jessica and Matt took care of my dachshund three days a week for the last five months. I have a crazy work schedule and they were so flexible and were always able to work with me. I highly recommend them. I always knew Rosa was safe and cared for and never had to worry. They are both awesome!”
“Thank you Alexandria for hosting Charlie while my husband underwent a surgical procedure this week. It was such a relief not to worry about Charlie, that he would be let outside for bathroom breaks and cared for while we were at the hospital. We sure appreciate that fine care you give him and how you work with our erratic schedule! Nancy”
“Kelly is wonderful! She is so thoughtful, gentle, caring and kind to my fur-baby, sending lots of update pics during our day of doggy day care. 100% satisfied! Thank you Kelly!”
About: Experienced in overnight and back-and-forth pet sitting. Can care for puppies to seniors at any hour of the day and night. I am not grossed out by any mess your pet may make and will keep the space clean. Normally work 7-noon 3 days a week. My job is very flexible and could change to suite you and your pets needs! I am very quick with responding if you would need me last minute. My pets that I've had in my home get fed at the same time every day. They are also allowed to go out when they want and get their paws cleaned when they come in. Water is always available to them. You can expect me to do the same with your animals unless told other instructions.

“Spencer did an amazing job taking care of our dog. Spencer is very friendly and a nice person! We received great updates throughout the day along with plenty of adorable photos. Our dog looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. Spencer took her on a good walk, made sure she had water and breaks, and treated her like one of his own. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We will definitely book again! Five stars.”
About: I actively foster dogs/puppies on a consistent basis for several years. I've worked with the same Animal Rescue for a long period of time and have experience with many different situations. With the Rescue I regularly handle different scenarios and medical needs, from new born pups to seniors! I'm comfortable with all shapes, sizes, and medical history. Most temperaments I have lots of experience with as well. I work from home full-time. I'm home all day every day Monday-Friday. My weekends only consist of a few errands making me gone for no longer than 4-5 hours at a time. I have a 7ft tall, fully fenced, back yard. I can kennel a dog if needed, but generally they would be out hanging with me. No dog will be left unattended, inside or outside, for long periods of time. I have two adult dogs in the home that can be introduced or remain separate if needed. I also have a 6yr old in the home that loves and is respectful of all animals.
“Angi and her husband took great care of Lexi. They were able to accommodate me just a few hrs before I neede their daycare service, communicated to me very quickly and politely. I definitely recommend them and if I return to the area I’ll be rescheduling with them.”
“Lindsay was super wonderful. She took good care my dog and followed the instructions I gave her. She was super friendly and flexible as well. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

“Angela was totally amazing. This was my first time trusting anyone other than family with my babies and Angela made it so easy. She communicated with me daily sending pictures and updates and my dogs loved her. I will definitely be asking her to come again in the future.”
About: Hi there! My name is Sarah, and I have been an avid animal lover my whole life. I even made a career of it as a wildlife biologist! I want to provide the best care for your pets, like they are my own fur babies (of which I have 2 cats). I have been pet sitting for friends, family, and colleagues for over 20 years.

I am currently available most days and weekends as needed from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm. My schedule is very adaptable the next few months. I am happy to follow any pet care instructions you have for me. If possible, I would like to meet with you and your pet(s) before petsitting/walks so I can make sure I am meeting your pet care needs, and I can get to know your pet(s). For in-home visits, I show the utmost care in respecting your home. My focus is to make sure your pet(s) are happy amd healthy!
About: I helped care for family dogs and cats since I was about five years old, feeding, giving water, walking and cleaning up after them until I was 18. I have boarded two dogs for a friend and provided drop-in visits for a former neighbor for about a year after that and worked at a pet hotel from '17-'19 in which time I got a dog training certification. I have some experience taking care of mice and hamsters and would like to learn how to care for rats and snakes. I'm currently working full-time but would be more than happy to provide the love and care that your fur babies require in your absence. I'm also a newer driver and could really use the experience. Afternoons and evenings work best but please don't be shy about asking for morning services. Depending on the service and your pet's needs, I will spend as much time as they need whether it be a brief or long walk, cuddling on the couch, etc. I currently work full-time as a front desk agent at an hotel and do my best to update my availability as the schedule comes out. I will keep your pet indoors for the most part, depending on the pet. I prefer to keep dogs on a leash when they go out for walks and to potty unless there is a fenced in yard.

About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friend’s dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because I’m a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possible—hiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!
