About: I've been around animals my entire life. I had 2 dogs and a cockatiel growing up that I helped care for. After I became older I have owned dogs, rats, fish, rabbits, chickens and ducks. I also foster small animals for a local rescue and have found fantastic homes for over 50 small animals. I work a few hours a day from home so I have plenty of time to interact and take care of your pets & fur babies. I'm available most days and nights. I am self-employed and work from home so I can take care of your pets needs at any time of the day since my schedule is flexible. I personally have 2 dogs, a rabbit, chickens and ducks at my home so there are plenty of things to help keep your pets occupied and happy. I also foster small animals for a rescue I help out with. My yard is unfenced, but I live on a quiet street and have an open area across from my home to play fetch or throw a frisbee with your dogs and mine. In regards to caring for pets in your own home I follow any directions you give me for food/treat schedules, how often they need to go outside, things your pets can and cannot do, etc.
“Abigail was fantastic and I will definitely use her again in the future! She was flexible with my constantly shifting schedule and checked in every day so I knew my fur baby was ok. He has a blast hanging out with her, and I couldn't have asked for better care. Thanks so much! - Melissa & Captain Sushi ?”
About: I attended Animal Science BOCES program for 2 years, graduating with my diploma. I am experienced with critters of all kinds from snakes to rabbits! I am comfortable with all sizes, shapes. I have a wide range of time where I am available for morning, afternoon and night walks/meetings. I only work part time so I generally have more time compared to full time workers. I am always very gentle, inviting with all animals. I typically let the pet come to me first, getting my scent and then proceed to give them lots of love.
About: I have had dog(s) since I was 9 years old, so I am extremely familiar with the amount of care and commitment it takes to look after them. I have a very flexible schedule, so I will have plenty of time to play with and walk your pups or care for your cats! I provide drop-in services and pet sitting in your home. Boarding at my home can be discussed if needed - I have 2 dogs and a fenced in yard.
About: I’ve owned everything from dogs and cats to more exotic species such as ferrets and reptiles for 10 years. I’m studying to become a licensed veterinary technician, and am comfortable with more ‘behaviorally challenged’ animals or those that need more specific care. I like to be busy, so while I am not working at my job at a Veterinary Clinic, I’d love to be engaging with pets and pet parents. I pay attention to my surroundings and am not afraid to ask questions about what is or is not okay for the animal - ex. if they are allowed to go into a certain room, have a certain treat, etc.
About: I quickly became a dog mom when my partner moved into my house with his 5 year old dog Sampson. I fell in love with our daily walks in the field behind our house, as well as having something to take care of in the house. Sampson listens, he is a dog I can walk off leash and the best cuddle buddy. Because of his good nature I soon found myself growing our family by the addition of two puppies. Hank was our first pup - he is a Great pyreenes mixed with a Bernese Mountain Dog. Think fluffy, slobbery, and 140 pounds. I wasn't sure how a big dog and myself would get along but I found his size comforting. Stella was a dog we failed at fostering. She is a smaller terrier mix and is teaching me the true purpose of crates and leashes. I learn every day how to be better for my dogs. It is chaotic, messy and unpredictable living with three dogs but I wouldn't change it for anything. I am by no means a perfect dog owner but I understand the complexities and uniqueness of each dog and their personalities. I rely on being consistent and predictable for my dogs so they continue to trust me to take care of them. Their health and happiness is my priority. I am a school teacher. When school is in session I am free after 5pm. When we are on break for holidays or summer, I am free anytime. At my house, I don't have a fenced in yard but we have over 20 acres to walk. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash. I have a crate for a medium to small sized dog and an outdoor "doggio" for warmer days or if a furry friend wants some time outdoors relaxing. I have three dogs, one of which is a very large and enjoys rough housing with other dogs. We have lots of toys and a house that that continues to become dog proof. We let our dogs on the couches and they have a large living room to play in.
About: I am a huge animal lover with professional experience as a dog walker/sitter. Right now my schedule is pretty flexible. Ideally, I would like to find a few dogs that would like to be walked throughout the week or checked on. I have a 10 + years experience dog sitting short/long term. I'm able to provide great references for the pets I've cared for in the past! I am energetic, fun, and easy to get along with. I like to make the most out of our time together! I like to be outdoors as much as possible. If your dog is comfortable, I would love to take your dog to events, the dog park, and short hikes. Your dog will love the experience I will provide! Dogs usually immediately like me and feel comfortable around me. Dogs of all ages and sizes welcome! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your fue babies! I am currently working part-time. I have plenty of time, as well as a flexible schedule, to attend to your pet with my undivided attention. I pride myself on treating clients pets the same as my own, with lots of love and affection! I am respectful of my clients homes, as well as their desired schedules.
About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, of all ages, and my family and friends pets as well, I’ve learned how to care for all types of animals from a young age and grown to gain more responsibilities for them as I’ve grown older. When I am home I will make sure my pets are well loved and cared for and comfortable as can be, I make sure they know they are loved, keep their bathroom area clean wherever it is they may go, food and water filled when needed and adjusting the water temperature for dogs based on the season In my own home I am sure to know where my pets are at all times, unless they are having play time, even then I try my best to know where they are inside the house, I make sure their water and food is clean from anything and everything, I make sure to monitor any animals bathroom needs to know when to care for them in that way.

Sari H.
“Sari has been helping us with the care of our dog for just over one year now. In addition to occasionally walking our pup and getting her to her grooming appointments on time, Sari does a phenomenal job boarding our dog. We feel comfortable going out of town knowing that Sari will take good care of our little girl! Sari is great with communication and updates us on how our pup is doing while we are away, and even sends the occasional photo! She pays careful attention to our dog's diet and gives her lots of love and attention. Our dog loves Sari so much that we have a hard time getting her to come back home with us after her walks or appointments!”
Kaitlyn P.
“Kaitlyn does a great job with our dog and cats. She is loving and caring. She is very polite, responsible and loves helping out whenever I need her. I would highly recommend her to anyone”
