Cat Sitting in Alfred Station

“We really like Alicia! Alicia is very responsive and easy to work with. They sent us a report after the visit with a video of our kitties and took care of everything we requested. We’ve already booked Alicia for house sitting next!”

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.

“Miranda was amazing with our pup, she sent photos and updates through her drop-in. Definitely recommend booking her for any pet needs!”

About: Over the past 4 years, I have honed in on my skills in animal handling, care, and maintaining cleaning and sanitation standards. My professional experience has equipped me with a solid foundation in pet care, allowing me to effectively meet the diverse needs of pets and their owners. I am particularly skilled in animal handling, proficient in administering first aid, medication and I am meticulous in my cleaning and sanitation practices. My communicative nature, attention to detail, and flexibility in adapting to various pet needs makes me a perfect fit for your pooch! I’ve dealt with dogs of all ages sizes and temperaments and would love to help you with your pet parent needs! At the moment I’m trying to watch pets full time but I may be getting a part time job in the near future. No matter the schedule, your pup will be my main priority! I currently live with my sister on her 79 acre farm with our two dogs Orla and Nellie. Both can be kept separate from your furbaby if need be. When boarding in my house your pup will be kept comfortable in my upstairs apartment and will be taken out to potty and play whenever they need! When staying in your home just let me know the routine and I’ll keep your furry friend happy!

“Kolby is responsive to requests, follows feeding and visiting instructions to a T, and is developing a rapport with my kitty - thank you, Kolby!”

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.

“Devin was awesome, he really went above and beyond for my cat and I felt safe leaving him in his care!”

“Lucinda did an amazing job taking care of our little guy! She was very kind and always gave us updates! Would highly recommend!”

About: I have a dog of my own and during my time in college I worked part time at a doggy daycare providing many different types of services including watching dogs in groups, giving dinners and medications as needed, and learning many dog behaviors. As stated, I have a dog of my own. I am also an occupational therapist but am taking some time off for the summer! Understanding that each animal requires different care is important, for example my dog is a one year old lab so making sure he gets enough exercise each day is a nonnegotiable! Whatever your pet needs to be happy I feel comfortable being able to provide those things such as any food/medication as needed and all the love including playtime and cuddles!

“Taylor won over the acceptance of my shy babies. That was great so she could see how their health was. Did a good job and gave me peace of mind. Thank you again.”

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.

“Megan was very good with the pets and kept me well informed of what was happening. Very accommodating. I would definitely use her again.”

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.

“Sophia is a very conscientious sitter! We have two rescued kittens and they have not been socialized with any one but us since we got them just over a month ago. She came into our home and our heart when she spent the time to bond with both of them. She took awesome photos of both of them so we really got to see that they were happy. She did all that we asked of her and even dealt with a few unexpected things!”

“Meagan is so kind, patient, and thorough. She goes above and beyond and is a great communicator. I'm very grateful to have her looking after my boy while I'm at work.”

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.
