Pet Sitting in Colonie

“Erica was amazing, always gave us updates and photos! We will def get her again if we go on another vacation.”

“Very good with our dogs, punctual and thorough with their care.”

“Returned to a calm happy pup, thanks to yet again Ewan’s professional and loving care of our dog. The pics he sent during each visit documented his thoroughness and kindness and even made us laugh at some of the facial expressions he captured. Sign him up for your next canine coverage needs - just not on the days in need him 😉!”

“Lindsey was an absolute delight. Gave us very clear updates, followed our instructions to a T, and went above and beyond in taking care of Hank while we were out of town. Despite the short notice, she quickly bonded with Hank and was attentive to his needs. She even folded up his blanket into a nice bed and gave him dinner early so we didn’t have to worry about it when we got home. I will definitely ask for her help again soon.”

“Jessica was great with my 6 pets on a recent weekend. She was very responsive, sent me photos, communicated with me daily and was successful at getting 1 of my dogs with dementia to go outside for her. Would recommend.”

“Julia is very caring and responsible when handling pets. She has owned and cared for her own dog for years and likes to be 100% on a pets health to make sure they are comfortable and happy.”

“I highly recommend Deb. She did a thorough and fantastic job with my cats while I was away on vacation. Pictures were sent everyday and my cats really enjoyed when she was there. Above and beyond service. Thank you again Deb for doing a great job.”

“I had to go on a work trip and I needed to find someone reliable and trustworthy to come to my house and take care of my two dogs. Miles was truly the right person for the job. He went above and beyond to make sure their needs were met. He sent me plenty of pictures and even offered to take some with his professional camera! He also spent some time with them after walks so that they didn’t feel lonely. If you’re looking for someone to take good care of your dogs, Miles is your guy for sure.”

“Ashley was wonderful and I would definitely book her to take care of my Akasha again! She's very patient, understanding and really knows how to interact with dogs.”

“Hannah was great! I’m so glad we booked her as our catsitter. She was very communicative and flexible, adjusting to the change in dates for our trip. She made sure to visit the cats twice daily, at specific times so she could give our diabetic cat his insulin injections. She was comfortable giving the insulin injections and made sure to play with both cats each day. She also watered our plants and brought in our packages. And after every visit she provided a detailed report with lots of pictures. I loved knowing the cats were in good hands and I will definitely be hiring her again for any cat sitting needs we have in the future.”

“During the summer, I had taken a job that required me to live in Tennessee for 2 weeks. Knowing Jared and his dog Dusty I figured it was the perfect opportunity to let her stay with him. When I returned to get my dog Evelyn, she was perfectly healthy. She was fed everyday, exercised, and could run around freely outside with Dusty. If you are looking for someone to trust with your k9 or any other pet, Jared will very easily put your mind at ease.”

“Natasha is Awesome! She formed a wonderful bond with my Colby and did meditation with him! She provided videos and frequent updates which I so appreciate. Most of all my boy looked so relaxed and zen. I highly recommend and I will surely be using her services again.”

“I wholeheartedly recommend Madeleine as a pet caregiver! Madeleine has had animals all her life and knows what it takes to ensure they’re well cared for. Ive asked her on numerous occasions to help me take my dog out and watch him while I’m on vacation and she’s done an amazing job with him!! He’s a 9 year old pit mix and can be a lot to handle but it’s no sweat for Madeleine. I’ve also seen her care for her cat for many years and her new puppy for the past 6 months and she’s doing an amazing job training her to be a well behaved dog. You can’t go wrong hiring Madeleine!!!”

“Quinn works hard at whatever the task at hand is. She excels academically while working part time. She has a great love for animals large and small. She has been responsible for care, walking and feeding of her own pets for years. She has taken care of cats and dogs in our neighborhood for years. She’s not going to just feed them. She’ll give the the play time, love and affection that you would give them if you were home.”

“Stephanie did a fantastic job! She provided great detailed notes on the visit and made us feel secure while keeping our puppy happy. She’s a great listener and followed all our care instructions; I’d recommend her!”

“Sarah was consistent, well organized, and kind. Our dog loved her from the start and it is very clear that she has a real gift for animal care. We so happy that she is a part of our pet’s lives!”

“Darcy has been doing drop-in visits for us every week. Our puppy loves her and we’re happy to know she’s in good hands! Darcy is quick to update us about her check in and send photos.”

About: I have responsibly owned dogs and cats for 44 years. I can clip the nails of most cats. I provide daily litter scooping and cuddle time with your cat. Rides and on-lead hikes with my dog if your dog is compatible if you wish. Individualized time in your neighborhood with your dog if you prefer. I am available for daily, weekly, and vacation care. Let's talk and meet. A preliminary meet-up with your pet or pets is necessary. I want you and your pets to feel comfortable and safe. Cats will have individualized attention in your home to include feeding, daily litter scooping, playtime or cuddle time, and nail trimming if the cat allows it. Dogs can go on car rides or gentle hikes with my dog if they are compatible. [They will have to meet first on a walk in your neighborhood. I do not utilize dog parks in order to keep your dog safe]. Your dog can have individualized attention and solo dog walks around your neighborhood if that is their and your preference. Playtime, cuddles, and light training are included.

“Denise grew up on a small farm in a small town. She spent years in 4-H doing various projects with animals of all types. Most summers she would spend working with goats, sheep, pigs, and cattle training them to walk on leash and be ready for show. Denise has also spent her entire life with dogs of various breeds. She understands the importance of appropriate training, exercise, and enrichment. Furthermore, she is a dedicated and intelligent person with a strong work ethic. These qualities helped her achieve her educational goal of becoming a lawyer and passing the BAR exam. As a veterinarian of nearly a decade, I could not think of a better person to trust with my dog giving her the time and enrichment she needs. I would highly recommend Denise.”

“Hello Everyone!! I just want to tell you what a wonderful dog sitter Jess is!!! She has taken my dog plenty of times and she has kept my 8 year old Chocolate Lab (Cedric) at her house multiple times. My poor Cedric is overweight and he needed to be on a strict exercise program. Jessica jumped right in and took charge of this for me. Within one month, my boy was up to two mile walks every single day with Jess and she even took him for walks at 6AM so that it would not be too hot out for my old guy. If Jess commits to taking care of your pet - believe me - it will be a job well done in a very loving environment. Jess has one dog of her own - Charlie - who loves all other dogs and enjoys the company. If your dog needs to stay at "doggie camp" while you are away on vacation - Jess also has a completely fenced in back yard and a great dog kennel for boarding or watching other's pets right at her own house. Of course, at night, you can expect your fluffy friend to be sitting on her couch watching TV with Charlie or snuggling up together with Jess and Charlie at bed time. You will have no regrets leaving your dog/puppy with Jess. I would highly recommend her in many ways to anyone who is considering her for dog walking/pet sitting. Your dog will never be happier in a trusted and safe environment. Your dog probably won't want to go back home with you!!!”
