House Sitting in Northwest Ithaca

Claudia was a wonderful pet sitter! From the moment we met her, it was clear she was a lover of animals and she would take wonderful care of our dog Pepper while we were out. She left the house in spic and span, was always in communication during our trip or if she had any questions, and shared lots of pics throughout. Would hire again in a heartbeat.

Our pugs were so happy with Sarah! She stayed at our house with them for three days and everything was in perfect order when we returned. Sarah communicated regularly and sent us photos. We felt totally comfortable with our dogs in her care. We - and they! - hope she can come back again soon.

Caroline did a great job taking care of our pets and home for an extended week. We really appreciated all the photos and updates during our trip. The house was super clean when we came back and all our pets and plants were happy. I would highly suggest Caroline for peace of mind while you are away

Rachel recently just spent 3 nights with my 3 pups. One of my dogs is a 16 year old Puggle and is deaf and mostly blind. She was wonderful in making sure she knew his medications and his special quirks. Although he still runs around and is very active for 16, she went above and beyond giving him special care. My 8 year old Corgi and 10 year old Beagle mix also appeared very content and happy when we got home. She asked lots of questions at the initial meet and greet and also was quick to notify us about a small piece of dry skin on one of our pups noses that appeared to have bled a little. Although nothing worrisome, I appreciated her concern and attention. She sent me several daily pictures and gave the dogs lots of outdoor and playtime. I would highly recommend Rachel and would easily call on her again.

Ariana was an excellent communicator putting our minds at ease when she took care of our two pups for the long weekend. She sent lots of updates (including pictures) ensuring we knew when they had been walked and fed. We came home to a spotless house and two happy dogs. We will definitely use her again!

Emma did a great job caring for our dog! She's a great communicator, calm and attentive - much appreciated!

Ruby did an amazing job taking care of our pup!

Super communicative and easy to work with. Thank you!

Cris was wonderful! He took great care of our pup and our house and we would happily hire him again!

Graeme took such good care of Ollie and left my house in great condition. He was awesome about sending photos/videos and reaching out if he had a question. Would recommend 100%.

My golden retriever seemed so happy when I came home and Kyle left my place exactly the way I left it. I would 100% hire Kyle again.

Over the course of the last couple of years, we’ve been hesitant to travel without our Bowie Bear. But Maxine has removed all doubt. We couldn’t have been luckier to have her take care of our very special precious beast. I only hope after this review I’m still able to rely on her availability! Thanks Maxine!

Due to my "go to" sitter moving town, I needed to find a new home for my babies while I'm out of town. My son and I travel a lot so typical boarding/kennel is not my favorite place for the doggies. Arya was very responsive when setting up the stay. My dogs tend to forget their training when meeting someone new, and I appreciated that Arya immediately responded to my goldendoodle the way I want him to when he jumps - he turned his back. Within 2 minutes Ayra had Marlin responding as he should (too often people tell me, "oh, it's okay" and allow Marlin to misbehave. I know this is also on me...but to have help, helps!). The dogs were walked regularly and I was given many, many videos. I had some questions about the dogs after pick up, and Arya responded immediately. He also texted to check in to see how they were doing, which was great. I'd absolutely use Arya again for shorter trips; I'm not sure about longer ones because the dogs appear to spend much time in the crate. It's not a negative per se - and I trusted Arya completely with them - it's just that that stay is very different from their lifestyle they've experienced during boarding, which is a large yard in which to run free, and generally only crating at night for sleep and when my previous sitter would leave the house.

Linnea is great! Our dogs loved her and enjoyed having her stay at our place for a weekend. Will absolutely use her again

Chris was great with our aging dog. Our dog is very shy, but Chris was shy and she warmed up to him. He handled all the hassles with giving her meds, etc. I'd definitely rebook Chris for future trips.
