1. Joe P.

“It was so great to have Joe as a sitter for our pups while we were out of town. He understood that the dogs were not use to being alone over night and was very flexible. We hope to have Joe back in the very near future!”


2. Ozzy J.

“Ozzy was amazing! They stayed at our house and watched our golden retriever Scotch and cat Persephone while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday. They sent us pictures & video of our fur babies and kept us updated on how they were doing. It’s important to us to have our pet sitters stay in our home while we are away, our animals get stressed in new environments, and Ozzy was so great! Our animals need alllll the attention, and Ozzy did not disappoint! They came over a week before to meet our Scotch & Percy and learn about the house. They even left a card for when we got home! Ozzy is fantastic, our animals loved them and we will definitely use them in the future when we go away. Thank you Ozzy!”




3. Lauren R.

“Lauren was very communicative and responsive for our entire vacation. She went above and beyond to make sure Forest had what he needed and even got him out on some nice long walks. She also made sure things around the house were taken care and even took a few additional requests with ease. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone else who needs loyal and proper care for their furry friends.”

I recommend Amanda 100%!!!”

“I've know Hannah for a couple of years now, and in the past 8 months or so whenever I am out of town I have her look after my bearded collie Brighton. She has never let me down, and has taken great care of Brighton. He gets very excited whenever she comes to visit, and her dog Nellie plays very well with him.”


19. Megan S.
About: I have many years of dog care experience with dogs of all ages. I have been a dog sitter and walker for neighbors, friends, and family dogs treating them with love and the level of care as if they were my own. I have also fostered puppies (an amazing experience)! I believe every dog deserves someone to love and take care of them, and that is my mission for your furry friend! I am currently a sophomore at Siena College studying biology while playing Division 1 soccer. Currently during the spring semester, I am typically available ALL DAY ON WEEKENDS and at certain times throughout the week. On MONDAY AND FRIDAY, I am usually available from 9:30am-3pm, and 6:30pm-10pm. On WEDNESDAY I am available from 9:30am-3pm. I am typically unavailable on TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS until 6:30pm-10pm. The safety of your dog is my top priority. I have no problem using crates or gates, or following specific rules given to be by the dogs owner.


20. Emily B.
“Emily is an amazing pet caregiver. She is extremely attentive and thorough. She has come with me to help when I’m Dogsitting, and I have seen her care for her animals as well. She would totally make sure your animals are treated like her own! She takes the extra time to ensure the animal is well taken care of. She is also very reliable and flexible, and would rise to any occasion. I would 100% recommend Emily to anyone!”
