"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.

Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!

. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.

Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.

Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.

Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!

Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!

If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!

My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!

Best doggie day care anywhere hands down. CRitters knowledge and expertise as a dog whisperer is second to none. Her passion extends to every details. My babies won’t go anywhere else!!
I board my dog here often when I go away. She always has the best time. There’s no other place like this. Stephanie and her team do an awesome job.
Always, always caring for the hounds. Just about perfect. You feel the love as you pull in. Recommend
Very accommodating, my pup has never been boarded and gets scared Very easily ‼️
Would you leave a family member with just anyone? I leave my best friend there and do not worry about her when I am gone. We refer to Critter Sitters as "doggie paradise" as it is a vacation getaway made for dogs; they have swimming, multiple play areas, and group activities most of which seem to involve running. They will even pick up and drop off. My "couch potato" dog comes home happy (and then sleeps for 2 or three days.) Highly recommended for furry family members.
I’ve never left a review in my life but I feel obligated to leave this one! We dropped my dog off to try his first day of day care and we asked if we should just do a half day since he was new. They assured me he would be fine for a full day but would call if there were any issues. Unfortunately when we picked him up our dog was in severe pain and couldn’t walk. All four feet were completely raw and bleeding. I called to ask them how this happened and they said it’s completely normal and just put some ointment on it. After several hundred dollars at the vet and numerous trips, taking days off of work, our dog is still having issues 4 months later. I never contacted them about the vet bills because I blamed myself for not doing enough research about the place, but to make matters worse they called me a month later asking for me to pay for my session, when we had actually paid more than we needed so we didn’t have to pay ‘next time’. Luckily they were able to recall we paid already. There certainly won’t be a next time, please think twice before sending your dog here.
My dog has a better vacation than we do when he goes there. His last visit he cried all the way home. He loves being there with all the others and gets to live an all out free dogs life!! No worries about Marley while we are away.
Stephanie and the staff are awesome. I was skeptical about putting our 6 month old Yellow Lab into a boarding facility because I've never used one before. After my Veterinarian recommended Critter Sitters we did our research and then contacted them to set up our interview. Our dog now goes there a few times a month to see his friends and gets so excited the minute he sees where he is. He comes home very tired and it's easy to see he's had a great time. I highly recommend Stephanie and Critter Sitters of CNY.
One of the few boarding facilities that actually understands dogs. They have acres for your dog to run around. Every time I picked up my dog she was happy and tired. The pack formations there quelled her fear of the water and she actually swims now. Couldn't recommend enough to anyone with a medium sized to big dog.
We’ll run business. Great exercise for our dog. We call it “summer camp!”

My new puppy was very very anxious when she moved in with me. Now at one year she is still anxious but growing in small courageous steps. Her time with Leah and her family and all the dogs has truly helped her develop confidence. I don't worry about her when I leave her for day care, an overnight, or for a week's vacation with my children and grandchildren. I am beyond grateful to Leah and her family!!! 🐾
The nicest and caring owners you’ll ever meet. A perfect layout for the doggies with a big fenced in yard to run! I will never take my dog any where else because I know he is safe and cared for here. Easy booking, drop off and pick up.
I like the large kennels and big enclosed yard. Plenty of space and room for my 2 dogs to run and play. First time I've boarded them for a trip I went on and I think they had a nice weekend. And prices are great. Would recommend.
Leah goes above and beyond to provide a happy, safe enjoyable experience for even my anxious Grover who is quite a challenge.he stayed there while I was in the hospital and came home a better adjusted dog...the accommodations and extensive area to run and explore exceeded all my expectations...
Leah is great.

The people here are so kind and caring. Such a great and convenient place to board our pup and great for daycare services. Our pup is so excited when we drop her off. And she is exhausted when she gets home from playing all day.
Exceptional grooming services! Upon meeting Nicole(groomer)my dog Victor was at ease. I didn't know what to expect. She did an amazing We're on a regular grooming schedule now. Her services and prices are very reasonable.
Mike is an awesome guy who runs a great place. Never disappointed with any service and it only gets better as time goes on. I recommend wholeheartedly Club Meadow to anyone looking for doggie daycare or boarding. (Photo of my two pups after a fun day at daycare)
This was our puppies second stay, and she was so excited.
I've been taking my dogs to Club Meadow for 5 years. They both love being there. Mike, the owner, is also one of the few people my older male trusts. I couldn't imagine taking them anywhere else.
They do an outstanding job ,they treat Ruby and Rosco like family
Michael and his team are amazing with the dogs. They are the best
Great place for daycare and boarding. The dogs have each other as well as the owner to stimulate them and keep company.
Yet another of our dog acclimated to other pups. So grateful for Michael and his staff!
Excellent to my dog very happy with everyone there

First time using doggy day care. I have 8 year old rottweiler. We dropped her off at 10 AM. Shot over to the state fair picked up at 8:30 PM. Gerda had a great day. And very reasonably Priced!
My husband and I recently visited Syracuse for a memorial service and called a handful of daycares in the area two days prior, but nobody could accommodate our dog. We needed someone to watch our senior rescue, Charcoal, for extended hours without boarding overnight, just so we could attend the service. Julie was so understanding of our issue and graciously offered to keep the daycare open for a few extra hours just for us. Having never met her or seen the facility, we relied solely on reviews and the first impression on the phone with her. When we dropped Charcoal off, one of the staff members took some info then whisked him away. We felt very comfortable based on the way the facility looked and the staff member handled our sweet boy. When picking him up later, Julie greeted us to tell us he just lied down and she was sitting there with him. She gave us a report for his stay and we chatted for a few minutes before we left. You can tell Julie loves what she does and really loves dogs. Had it not been for her kindness and understanding, I’m not sure how we would have made it to the memorial. Thank you to Julie and her wonderful staff at It’s a Dog’s Life!
I cannot say enough positive things about It's a Dog's Life Boarding. They are friendly, take care of the dogs amazingly, have a super clean establishment, and being able to set everything up online made it super simple and convenient.
Our dog loves her visits and it's great knowing she's at a place that takes wonderful care of her. We know she enjoys it because she comes home from every stay completely exhausted from playing with friends and enjoying the outdoor space.
My dog loves going to day care here every week. He gets out of the car and cant get into the building fast enough. Employees who are there when I drop him off are always so nice (even at 6:45 in the morning). My husband also has nice things to say when he picks him up. The pictures are a great addition. I love having the report card at the end of the day to see how my boy did that day with everyone. A face attribute for our boy is he is a very active social butterfly.
It was the first time we ever used a service for our 3 y/o dog. I was very anxious but Julie was such a pleasure to work with, incredibly professional and that gave us comfort and confidence throughout the process. Our dog seemed very happy and relaxed at pickup. Would highly recommend.
Very thankful for this daycare. We love how friendly and interactive the staff are. The facility is beautiful...tons of toys and room to play all day long! Our dog is safe during the day and comes home happy and tired. We love the cam which shows the whole play area. Thank you!
Absolutely the Best! All we have to say to our dog is "Do you want to go to Doggy Day Care? He goes crazy! When we arrive he is pulling just to get in the building! Now that in itself tells alot! The facility is clean, they have all kinds of toys and they even play with the pups! Our dog has made many new friends, and so have we!! The staff is always friendly, they treat my dog with so much kindness and love. Julie the owner is amazing. I was at work one night and lost track of time. She called me and brought my dog to me at work! Now if that isnt dedication and kindness!!!
Not sure where these negative reviews come from - this place is awesome. My dog having been to several dog daycare's already, I feel I'm pretty keen as to the standards at these places, and It's a Dogs Life is far above the rest in their care and attentiveness. It's in the details, like having rubberized/soft floors (not concrete), staff take time to actually engage with your dog (play, show affection, etc), and their is full transparency from the cams you can access. Also a great touch is the online account you can have with them. They upload pics of your little pooch, and even offer a report card. This kind of attention makes all the difference. This isn't one of those crappy concrete dungeons, that is essentially just a place to bring your dog while they monitor them walk around in a pack all day long - this is a facility that provides real attention, and care to your dog... just as you would. You would be doing your dog a disservice bringing them anywhere else.
We are so excited to have such an amazing place to take our dogs for a fun afternoon! I never question that they are safe and well cared for. They both come home exhausted from all the fun they've had all day. Thank you so much for bringing It's A Dog's Life CNY to our community!

We are so glad we found Super Paws! Sadie just had her first stay there and did really well. Came home happy and tired! Chuck, Nancy, and Sterling are terrific. Sadie will be back! 🐾 …
Super accommodating owners that really care to keep your dog comfy. Followed special medication/care requests without hesitation.
Wonderful place to bring your dog. We never worry when we are out of town. Sterling, Chuck, and Nancy are so great with our dog. We wouldn't board her anywhere else.
These aré the only people I would trust with my dogs. They're kind, clean and very accommodating. If you need to kennel your pet, this is the place!
Within a week of rehoming a small mini dachshund I had to kennel him. Now, Cooper came with social issue. Did not like anyone except Chuck and family. They are the best! Will recommend and use more! Thank you!
Husband, wife and son team. Very friendly and accommodating. I have a senior dog and a 3yr old who's kinda nervous around people and other dogs. Yup she's a covid pup. SPK kept my 2 girls in the same room and they have their own peek a boo door to private potty area. We had a flight delay so I called and let them know about my issue. They were very accommodating. Also with my girls diets, one is one a special diet with vitamins, also no problem. I brought their beds, a toy, blanket, bowls and food( clearly marked) . Prices are VERY reasonable. Girls have another sleepover coming up.
The best kennel in the area. Chuck and Nancy are so kind to our dog and he’s always happy when he gets there. Love the place and the people
We have boarded our husky, Xena with them for a long weekend and felt as they were very good to her. Recently my husband was admitted to the hospital and I needed our puppy to go somewhere that I wouldn't have to worry about her. I called Super Paws and they were more than accommodating!! They treat her as if she was one of theirs! She was there almost a week and reduced stress in our lives this past week I thank them immensely !! Thank you very, very much! I would recommend them to anyone!!
I recently had shoulder surgery and I had to leave Finn at Super Paws over 60 days. It was hard for me but I know Finn had a fantastic time. When I was taking him there, he got all excited when we pulled into Fabius. Fussing in the back seat and little little excited barks. He loves it there. I didn't have to worry about him at all. I would call to see how he was doing and Chuck would say he was outside having a great time. When I went to pick him up on day 63, he ran over to me and said hi and then ran behind the desk to see Chuck and Nancy. They treat him just like one of their own and Finn loves them. I can't thank them enough for taking such good care of my buddy.
Great place! They really care about your dog! Our puppy was born there when we were away and they took exceptional care of her. One suggestion: Bring your own food, their food is generic and makes our dogs sick because they are not used to their food. Definitely bring your own food and everything will be great!
