dianne
Selkirk, New York
Homeowners and ex hands-on landlords with extensive animal care experience.
Dianne and Tim are exactly the kind of sitters who make TH a trusted and reliable community that we can turn to time and again. They were highly communicative, friendly, capable. They took care of our 7 month old Nora for a few days and were so flexible with the needs and quirks of a young dog in training. Our dog fell in love with them quickly and the daily photos proved it. They were conscientious from start to finish with Nora and left our home in immaculate condition. We came home after a long day of travel to a clean home and happy dog which is everything. We are so very grateful to Dianne and Tim!

This is the second time Karen has sat for us and hopefully she will be sitting for us again this August.
Christine
Selkirk, New York
Retired, nonsmoking couple who enjoy animals and exploring new places
Christine and Mark could not have been more charming or more trustworthy and capable of looking after our cat and our rather complicated home. They were unfortunate enough to be at our home during substantial building works and never made a fuss about this. Everything was immaculate when we returned apart from a leaking shower which was not in any way their fault and which they dealt with very effectively when the need arose. I strongly recommend Christine and Mark as zeewoi.
Molly
Selkirk, New York
Experienced Pet Sitter, Property Manager, and Airbnb Superhost
Molly and Lee knew exactly how to be over the top sitters. The house and Tabby were well taken care of. I was pleased to know that they embedded with our community and staff. Additionally, Molly and Lee were able to explore beautiful St. Lucia to learn of why it is so great to live here. Mary and I look forward to their return next year. Molly and Lee, job well done. I appreciate the work on the lawns, absolutely beautiful.
JONATHAN
Selkirk, New York
Lover of animals and travel...
Jonathan was prompt and clear with communications. He reached out with questions before the sit and sought clarification on my instructions during the sit. He sent photos of Sophie and Pepito, along with updates. He reached out with a concern about an open gate in the backyard to make sure I knew about it (I did). My animals were well cared-for and the house was tidy on my return. Overall, he was reliable and trustworthy. Thank you, Jonathan!
Rebecca
Selkirk, New York
Digital Nomad w/ 10+ Years House-Sitting Experience
Rebecca is very sweet and incredibly considerate. We had a nice long zoom call before confirming the sit and she was easy to talk to. At the time I had two kitties and one was very ill. Rebecca asked thoughtful questions and had so much experience that my stress and anxiety were alleviated; I was grateful to have found her and felt completely comfortable entrusting my kitties and little piece of paradise to her. Unfortunately my Fizzy Fitzy's health deteriorated and he didn't make it. I let Rebecca know before the sit that it would be only one kitty and that he would be adjusting to the loss of his "brother" and companion and might need more care and attention. She was so kind and again, I felt like the universe had sent me the right person. Rebecca and I got a chance to meet as we overlapped by an hour or two on day one; I was so glad to be able to see her in person and give her a hug before I left. I returned after about 10 days to a calm kitty (which was amazing given that he'd just lost his lifelong companion) and an immaculate apartment. Rebecca even washed the sheets and made the bed which was so beyond helpful and appreciated after a tiring trip. Rebecca sent me a long message on the last day letting me know what had been done and showing a walk-through of the home (she's very thorough, which I love), so I knew what I was coming home to down to the fruit in the fridge. Seriously, the place was immaculate! I know you're journeying on Rebecca but I would love to have you sit anytime. Thank you!

Eliza was my first sitter after signing up on zeewoi. I’m Soooo happy to have had her in my home watching over my dogs. They were very well taken care of and she did everything I asked her to do with the dogs meals and medication. Plus she took excellent care of my home and plants. If you are lucky enough to get Eliza to stay at your home, you will be so glad it was she who took care of things! Very happy 😃
Michael & Ashleigh
From her promptness to schedule a pre-sit call to her truly thorough tidying of our house, Stella was an amazing housesitter from start to finish!! She read all the info we put together ahead of time, and asked for clarification on just a few things which made us confident that the pup and the house were in good shape :) Stella was really gracious when we admitted to not having a coffee pot, and handling things calmly when there was an incident with street parking. Maybe most importantly though our dog Luke was calm when we came home. I think if future sitters are clear in their expectations around frequency of communication/photos and the dogs needs then Stella is the perfect person to exceed your expectations!
Nicole
We’re so grateful for the love and care Vanessa gave our two dogs while we were traveling for a weekend. During our trip, she sent us pictures and our dogs always looked happy and at ease. Even during a thunderstorm she cared for our scared older dog who unfortunately had a little accident, and she cleaned up with no complaint. We didn’t have to worry at all which let us truly enjoy our weekend away knowing our dogs were in the best hands! Vanessa was clean and tidy. We returned home to a neat house and happy pups! She even did the laundry without us asking. We would highly recommend Vanessa as a sitter for anyone. Thank you so much!!

Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
Deborah
This was our first experience with TH and we are very pleased. From the moment Rose arrived we knew she was the right sitter for our “kids”. Communication while we were away was great with pics of the dogs as well as text messages. Rose cared for our home and our “kids” with great care, she is very conscientious of your space. Extremely pleased with the care she provided to our “kids” and our home. We have another trip planned in a couple of weeks and are happy Rose will be staying in our home again. I highly recommend Rose as a sitter!

Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.

Lynn and Ray were fabulous sitters, going above and beyond to take care of our home, yard, and rambunctious pup. Leaving him for three weeks was very difficult but we felt confident once we met them. They are great communicators, very professional, capable of handling any situation, and personable. Since they are fully self-contained in their van, they arrived a day early so we could show them the place, have our dog Bailey get comfortable with them (that was immediate ☺), and get to know them over dinner together. While on our trip, they sent us daily photos of Bailey, which we really appreciated, and updates on their activities. They took him hiking almost every day and kept him well exercised. Any issues that came up (e.g., our irrigation water ran dry a couple weeks in) they communicated to us and we were able to resolve them quickly. They also harvested ripe berries and squash for us and even harvested and dried tomatoes in our dryer. We spent our entire trip feeling assured that all things were being taken care of and feel ever so grateful that we found Lynn and Ray through TH. We returned from our trip to a house that was thoroughly cleaned (better than we left it ☺), with fresh sheets on the bed, and a happy dog. Five-star sitters for sure!
Anne
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.

I highly recommend booking with Laura! She has taken great care of my four cats while I was away for both short and long trips, and I would not hesitate to call her again. You can expect to regular communication, including daily photos of your pets, and will rest assured that your pets are in good hands. Laura cares for your pets as though they were her own! Finally I would emphasize that Laura’s rates are very reasonable and I appreciated her availability during the holiday season.
Laura has been a godsend for my dog and me! She is so reliable, kind, and caring! She came so highly recommended to me and I recommend her to everyone I know. She takes the best care of my dog and makes sure that she has the best time. Laura sends updates, pictures, and a map of where they went so that you know what they've been doing. My dog has bonded to Laura and looks forward to seeing her every week!
Laura is wonderful! I’ve gone on several week-long trips and she has reliably fed my cat and given her snuggles, while giving me individualized report cards and photos. I’m also very particular when it comes to my cat’s feeding schedule and my home door lock/security system can be finicky, but Laura handled both like a pro. Highly recommended!
Laura is amazing!!! She has been walking my dogs for at least 2 years and they love her! She is very caring, responsible, and dependable....even has helped with emergency check-ins. She works with my crazy schedule and even helps reinforce training. 1000% percent recommend her!!
Laura is the best dog walker we could ask for! She is incredibly kind and clearly cares about all the dogs she sees. After every walk she sends us a map of where they walked with pictures and videos every single time. She also goes above and beyond for her clients. We have recommended her to literally everyone I know in the area that has a dog as I cannot say enough good things about her! Our dog loves a lot her too!! We are so lucky to have her :)
I have used Laura for my dog probably 6 times. I know my dog is well taken care of when I am out of town and I always receive updates throughout. I HIGHLY recommend, especially if you want the type of care that a boarding facility cannot provide. My dog adores Laura and feels so comfortable with her.
Laura is an amazing pet sitter! She cared for our 3 elderly cats ( 2 of which needed daily medications) . She regularly sent us pictures and updates and we felt at much more at ease knowing that she was taking such good care of our fur babies. I highly recommend her
Laura is absolutely reliable and my cats love her. She consistently goes above and beyond. She does little things beyond just pet care that make a huge difference, like bringing in packages and mail, and taking care of plants. She also is always willing to jump in at the last minute when plans change, which they often do. Having Laura taking care of my cats takes a huge weight off my mind when I am away.
Laura is the best and I trust her wholeheartedly with my dog! She understands the anxiety that can come with leaving your pet in the care of someone else and is very thorough and responsive with her updates. She also has incredible attention to detail when it comes to your specific animal’s needs so I know my dog is very safe and happy with her! :)
Laura is the best dog walker we’ve ever had! She is extremely reliable and has been very flexible when we’ve needed a last-minute walk or had a change in schedule. After every walk she sends a map showing where they went with helpful notes and photos - and most importantly our dog adores her!

Excellent pet sitting service! Melissa is accommodating and works out all the details. Melissa and Heather took great care of our dog and parrot. They easily worked out an overnight/daily visit schedule to meet the needs of our dog. Appreciated the pictures and texts😊 …
I have used Toni since she first started her pet sitting service. She has always been great, sending us photos of our cats and leaving follow up notes. She is always quickly responds to any requests. Our kitties love having her take care of them. I feel my pets and house are safe and in good hands with her service.
We contracted My Furry Family Pet Sitters at the holidays when I know it was a very busy time. Toni was the utmost professional. Despite a busy schedule, she not only took care of feeding and watering my cats, but gave them the love and attention they needed. She sent many pictures daily to assure us that they were doing well. I would definitely hire again!
Toni is just great. I originally asked her to take care of my two cats about three years ago. They both had health issues and needed meds two times a day. She was able to take good care of them both until I had to put them down. Now she takes care of my healthy young Rocky boy. She really loves pets and is a joy to work with. All of my guys love her. Highly recommend.
I have been using My Furry Family Pet Sitters for almost 3 years now. I have 3 pups and a cat. I can easily communicate our needs to the Pet Sitters and everything is handled and more. I am able to travel with ease. Toni has been amazing from day 1! We consider My Furry Family Pet Sitters part of the family now too!
Toni and the gang at My Furry Family Pet Sitters really rock! They are professional and reliable and I have peace of mind knowing that my two cats, Star & Fang, will get excellent care when I have to go away. When I signed on, Toni came over to meet the guys, check the place out, and document where everything was. I knew everything was going to work right there and that has turned out to be the case. Tony, Melissa, and Dawn really love animals and know a lot. Highest recommendation.
Toni has been taking care of my dogs for years and I absolutely cannot imagine what I would do without her service! She is exceptionally professional and reliable. Very caring and loving. Responsible. Great at communication. I couldn't ask for more. She has always been there for us no matter what the need. And with the addition of Melissa it has only gotten better. I know they truly care about my fur babies. They are the only people I trust to come and take care of my dogs when I can't.
Look no further for pet sitters that are professional and care about your pets as much as you do. Toni and Melissa (and now Dawn) go above and beyond when they watch our pets. In addition to feeding our cats and cleaning the litter, they play with them and always send pictures so we know they're doing fine. They even had a calendar created featuring all of the pets they look after! These pet sitters are incredibly reliable with scheduling and we've never run into an issue, even when we accidentally schedule at the last minute. On top of everything, their rates are more than fair, especially when considering the quality of work they perform. We are very lucky to have found My Furry Family and would recommend them to anyone with pets!
Hands down the very best! Toni Is truly a professional yet the kindest person to our our pets and their humans as well. My Furry Family Pet Sitters are reliable, trustworthy and have always helped us out even with a crisis on short notice. The BEST in the business!
100% trust our fur baby with My Furry Petsitter's! Tony is great with Molly- caring, reliable and certified if anything should happen. She is Molly’s best part of the day. Highly recommend!
Cornell's Cat Boarding
Recent Reviews:
Max must have been a very happy camper. He scarfed up every bite of food left for his 2 week stay and seems to have checked out the other guests at the cat resort. His person was relieved that he had behaved politely, enjoyed his stay among other cats and was also glad to enter his special travel compartment. As for Max's human, I am most grateful for the kind attention, the care in administering his meds which required tinkering with his food and the very reasonable cost of these services. Thank you Heidi for your gentle pet Care, with a capital C. It's so good not to feel guilty about leaving your pet on the holidays.
Heidi is awesome! We’ve been taking our cat there for years. We’ve had our cat there for a long weekend and for a week. She is so accommodating and very flexible. We had to change dates a few time for our cat to stay, and there was no issue. One of our cats passed away that we use to take to Cornell’s and Heidi sent us a card in the mail. She is so personable and caring for the cats and I can’t see us taking our cat anywhere else.
Heidi took wonderful care of our cat while we were away from the Capital Region. The first time I called her, she cheerfully answered the phone and made me comfortable right away, offering me the chance to come and get a tour of her facility. Upon touring, we quickly decided to enroll our cat in boarding, which was a very simple process. I felt very comfortable our cat was in good hands throughout our trip. When we picked her up, she wanted to stay! Heidi made sure our cat liked the food given, too, and showed she really got to know our cat. Thank you, Heidi and Cornell's. We will be back!
My cat is quite the picky girl but she absolutely loved her stay. She was a little stressed being away from home for a two week period but they took excellent care of her. They acknowledged her stress and catered to her needs with no issue. The cats are let out for daily exercise and they have no issue with a pet mom checking on the fur baby. Highly recommended.
We had a very good experience boarding two cats with Heidi. We were referred to her by our Vet. She provided great care and goes out of her way to make them feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend Cornell's Cat Boarding.
This place is NOT closed! My cats love it here. Google dishonestly listed them as closed after the owners declined to pay Google for extra advertising. Greedy, greedy! Later: I am pleased to see that Google relented and put them back on the active list again. My cats love this place. They used to complain about getting in their carriers (meant a trip to the vet). Now they hop right in and don't even complain in the car, because they think (usually correct) that they are going to Cornell's.
Basic kennel. They feed the cats premium food.
Cornell's Cat Boarding Where we where looking at we wanted to board our 2 cats there but the place was too small. They didn't have an area where the cats could play in. Too narrow cages but price is right!
Great place to take a cat when you're going away they've been doing this for years family business. Friendly and reliable.
Great owner, excellent care given. Personable and knowledgeable.
