“Kirsten was amazing! She took great care of my three cats while I was gone for 3.5 weeks. She made sure to send me photos and videos every day, and it was clear in those videos how much the cats adored her! I would absolutely re-hire her to take care of my cats in the future.”


“Kaylee did a great job caring for my two kitties. She was responsive and respectful. Both needed meds and she was comfortable administering them. I appreciated her daily updates and photos. I can highly recommend her as a sitter!!”


“Nicole just completed her first set of visits with Gaia. It went great! Nicole communicated with us really well. She sent lots of pictures and asked questions as needed, but mostly she spent time with Gaia and followed her cues which was really important to us. We came home to a very happy cat! Thank you, Nicole!”


“I'm so glad I found Ariana! I moved for a new job with a demanding, unpredictable schedule, and she’s been an absolute lifesaver. She's kind, attentive and truly cares about my animals' individual needs. She took all my requests seriously and always goes above and beyond with her updates, which gives me real peace of mind while I’m at work. I’ve already referred her to a friend who’s just as happy, and I’m a repeat client myself. I can't recommend her enough!”


About: I specialize in caring for small/medium breed dogs in a peaceful, country home just five minutes outside of Ithaca. With experience ranging from young dogs to seniors, I provide a calm, structured environment where your pet can feel safe and at ease. What sets me apart is my exclusive focus on smaller breeds. As the owner of two small dogs myself (a Chihuahua-Terrier mix and a Pomeranian), I understand their specific needs and personalities.

I work full-time as a remote software engineer, which means I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent supervision and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention—ensuring your small dog is never left alone for long stretches and always feels cared for. Because I’m home-based and live in a quiet, country setting just outside of Ithaca, I can maintain a calm, structured environment that’s perfect for small breeds who thrive with routine and a peaceful atmosphere. I offer exclusive pet sitting services at my home, ensuring a safe and loving environment for your pet. With a large yard and the companionship of my own two playful dogs—a Chihuahua mix and a Pomeranian —your pet will enjoy playtime, walks, and personalized care. I prioritize their comfort, security, and individual needs, providing a home-away-from-home experience.

“It has been such a pleasure getting to know Kait before her upcoming week stay with our dogs! Our dogs seem to love her already and she’s so friendly, courteous, dependable, positive, and knowledgeable. So grateful to have found her!”

“Our cat could not have received better care than what Ashley gave her! She took a shy scared cat and had her playing on her first visit. We received pics and updates every day. We did not worry about her after that. Ashley was a sweet and lovely young lady. We will definately ask for Ashley again!”


About: I grew up in a house with dogs, and have been taking care of them since I was about 10. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and care for there animals while away ! As I said In my bio, I am a college athlete so I do have practice during the week and traveling during weekends. Although my class schedule is flexible and I do have a reliable car :) time spend with the animal, walking and exercise is super important to me. I will do everything in my power to give your animal all the love and attention it needs

“Venita was so amazing! She did a drop in and my pup was sick. She cleaned up his crate and played with him. She communicated well throughout everything. She even stayed later when asked, which I appreciated immensely! She sent photos of my pup as well, which was great. Will definitely book her again.”


“Lauren is a reliable, caring, and considerate pet sitter. She visited my home every other day to check on my cat while I was away for 2 weeks. During our meet-and-greet session, she was so patient with my cat when I first introduced them, letting my cat approach her first during the intros. Lauren is a natural with animals! And she always sent pictures during her visits, which I really appreciated. I’ll be coming back to Lauren for my future pet-sitting needs!”


“Anthony was nothing short of incredible! He last minute accepted my request after a previous sitter cancelled. He was friendly, quick to communicate, and super accommodating of my requests and the short notice request. He sent photos of my baby and gave her so much attention (she’s very needy). Would definitely hire him again in the future :)”


About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember, both large and small. I've been routinely walking a 100 pound great Pyrenees since I was a pre teen, so I know how to handle a large barking dog (and I'm not even bothered by barking any more!). I also have a lot of energy, so I'm happy to play as much as possible with any sort of dog. I'm also currently missing my own two dogs at home, so you can be sure that your dogs would get plenty of love and attention if I'm taking care of them. I'm a college student so my schedule is fairly open, aside from when I have class. I'm also available consistently on the weekends, so it wouldn't be an issue to perform frequent check ins. I'm happy to answer any specific inquiries about my weekly availability as well. I am comfortable using whatever mode of security you want, and will be sure to supervise your pets carefully if we're outside. I'm comfortable giving medicine to animals, as I've had some experience with my own cat (who had diabetes) and other foster kittens who needed eye drops, or medication given through pipettes.

“Dawn is reliable, thoughtful and caring. We entrusted her with the care of our cat for 10 days, and everything was perfect. We would ask for her service again without hesitation. I highly recommend her, your pet can'tbe in better hands!”



About: I am an animal lover and I will treat your fur babies with the same loving care that I do for my own. I love jogging/running with dogs, I will be able to take your dog to a dog park if you would like to. I will provide individualized care for you and your dogs' needs. For customers who needs home sitting: I only will be able to watch your dogs at your place if I can bring mine with me. For dog walking: I will walk wherever you and your dog usually go to, or we can explore new jogging course if you would like to. I'll make sure your dog will get enough exercise. For dog boarding: Your dog will enjoy staying in my place because I will spoil him/her with tag of war, fetching a ball, and giving special treats! I have one dog: she is a pug and jack russell terrier mix, about 3 years old. She is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. She will be a great companion for your dog when he/she stays in my place!

“Sara did a great job taking care of my senior cats while I was away. One of my cats, Cleo, requires daily oral medications and I can tell you Cleo doesn't make it easy, but Sara was able to do it. I could really tell she cared about getting to know the cats and making sure they were comfortable. I will be booking with her again in the future!”
