“Lori was very accommodating and easy to work with and I had great confidence that she would take good care of my dog. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”

“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”


“Catherine and her family were amazing hosts to Bucky. They have a nice backyard and Bucky loved it the minute he got in. They took great care of him, played a lot with him and even took care of giving him medication. Very easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. We could tell that Bucky was enjoying himself through the pictures we got. We will definitely use them again!!”


“Jayla was so great! She was incredibly responsive and provided helpful updates. I felt so comfortable leaving our pet with her. You could tell she really treated our dog like he was a part of her family. We will definitely be rebooking with Jayla in the future. Highly recommend!”


“Chelsea and Christopher were wonderful with our 2 pups. This is the first time we’ve had to leave our dogs outside of staying with family so I was nervous and hesitant. They calmed all my fears and took great care of our dogs— one of which also has some special needs. If we come back to upstate NY, we will definitely be booking with them again! Thank you!!”


“Emily was so great watching our pup Jax! We got multiple updates with pictures daily about his walks, playtime and all the cuddles. Highly recommend, Jax can’t wait for his next sleepover!”


“Bonnie is still exhausted from all the fun she had with friends at Jack’s house. He sent me pictures each day and she always looks happy and active. Jack was very flexible and I would recommend him highly.”


“Christopher and Chelsea watched our 3 pups for just a short stay this time, but as always they made everything a breeze and took wonderful care of the dogs. We got photos and updates frequently and the dogs always have a blast and come home tired out but well taken care of.”


“Amanda was awesome! Clear communicator and super friendly. Amanda is also in a great location right off 787, and has a big house for dogs to explore and have fun. She took my guy hiking in brutally cold weather. Will book again.”


“We left our pup with Deanne for a 7 day trip and she was incredible. It was all positive vibes from our first meeting onward. Our dog was clearly comfy, wonderfully cared for, and loved! Deanne will be our first call for future trips!”



“My dog, Zeppelin, had a great time during his stay with Helen, Jim, and their dog Harvey. I loved getting pictures and updates about how Zeppelin was doing throughout his stay. It was great that Zeppelin got to spend his time with Helen playing in the yard with Harvey and the other boarders, taking trips to the dog park and going on walks rather than cooped up in a kennel. They truly treated him like he was part of their family! Thanks to Helen, I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about Zeppelin and I got the added benefit of a tired dog for when I was home unpacking. I would recommend Helen to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and home like environment for their dog while they are away.”



“Maggie is awesome. She took good care of my dog when we were out of town for the weekend. She sent photos and videos everyday, and also followed feeding/walking instructions. Our boy had a great time with her! We would definitely come back to her again if needed.”


“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”


“Emer was a real pro. Picked up Cheerio and returned him happy and healthy. I am one of her first customers and I would certainly use her in the future. She is a true "dog person".”


“Tatiana was great with our Bandit. We're always uneasy about leaving him with strangers, but Tatiana put any fears away. She made us feel comfortable from the start, and Bandit seemed to have enjoyed his stay. We would highly recommend Tatiana and hope she is available next time we're in Schenectady.”


“Kaitlin is an accomplished animal caregiver. She treated our pet with great care. She also taught us many things about our pet , which was very helpful since we are first time pet owners.”


About: I’ve grown up all my life around animals. I love for all animals and have much patience and detail. I’ve taken care of animals years I’m a special ed teacher. I work Monday through Fridays 8:30 AM till 3 PM.. as you can tell, I have much patience, love and care I live in a townhouse so I don’t have my own backyard or fenced in area, but I do have a golden retriever who is four years old. We take three long walks every day either at a cemetery or in a park.

“Both Serhii & Olesia were both extremely caring of Keeper and followed instructions very carefully so my vacation was stressfree. I highly recommend them for your future needs!”


About: I had dog walk for number of years and had work seasonally at a pet company before. I am confident I can take care of your dog while you ar away. It is going to be a part time gig for me, I can do most evenings and weekends; During weekday, I can start my services after 6pm and anytime at weekend. I will do my best to ensure I follow your instruction and provide on time updates of your dog and most importantly the pet will have my full attention during my services.

“Kathy was so wonderful with my little guy!! I booked her very last minute and she was so accommodating and took care of my baby for 2 days while I worked. It was so nice to not have to worry about him because I knew he was in good hands. She sent me so many pictures and updates so I never had to wonder how he was.”
