House Sitting in Ancramdale

“Alexis was great with Nancy Moo and obviously cares deeply about animals. Communication was awesome as were the photos, everything was left tidy, and most important of all I cam home to a happy pup. I would not hesitate to book Alexis again - highly recommend!”

“Emily was so great with our senior dog Willow! She house sat her for the weekend and did a fantastic job. She communicated clearly about everything, sent photos, and most importantly was able to give Willow the twice daily insulin shots she needs. I highly recommend working with Emily!”

“God/Goddess thank you for Katie & her hubby too. Quilly was so so happy in the pictures and when I came home. Incredibly trustworthy and friendly lady (neighborly too! ) to care for pup.”

“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”

“Liz met us at our campsite right on time and she immediately got along with our Catahoula, Annie. They were quick friends. Liz did a great job keeping her safe and entertained while me and my family attended a concert, and Annie was safe and relaxed when we got back to our site. Liz did great and I'll recommend her to anyone who needs help watching their fur baby for a few hours.”

Greg M.

“Shanna was awesome! She stepped in at the last minute and took really good care of our animals. Our dog Charlie is almost 16 years old and nearing the end of his life so he needs a lot of monitoring, attention and care. Before we met Shanna, we were really worried about leaving him, but were able to enjoy our trip away without worrying if he was okay. She managed his medications beautifully so he wasn't in pain. Rocky the cat took to her straight away and both of them were happy and relaxed when we returned. Shanna says she gives concierge service and she absolutely follows through!”

Sue L.

“Janice was so helpful during our last minute trip to Rhinebeck! My very anxious pup was left alone in a new place during a thunderstorm and Janice made sure he was as comfortable as possible. Wish I lived closer so I could utilize her services more often. Highly recommend!”

Melissa L.

“Emily is AMAZING and did a fabulous job house + pup sitting while we were out of town. Her warm and caring manner instantly won our pups over and they had a wonderful weekend together. Emily’s proactive communications both before and during her stay here were very reassuring and appreciated. Can’t say enough great things and hope to use Emily many times in the future!!”

Paula P.

“Cassie is wonderful! She was incredibly responsive and communicative while sitting my dog. I loved how she sent me multiple photos as requested and felt like my dog was in great hands.”

Regina A.

“Christine jumped in for a last minute request to sit with our very old baby dog for a long day. She had never met us or him before and her relaxed confident demeanor overcame his (and my) nervousness. I am grateful we found her and will ask her again to sit for us.”

Erin R.

“Can’t say enough what a great experience it was with Gary and Paige. Our dogs were well-cared-for and Paige sent regular updates with photos several times per day while we were gone. Our dogs responded well and knowing that put us at ease. Paige even pulled a fallen part of a tree off of our fence and made sure the fence was secure. We look forward to having them care for our pups next time we are away.”

Camron W.

“Sam took care of our senior pitbull mix over the holidays. She did a great job! Our dog was recovering from surgery and had several restrictions that Sam handled professionally. We would gladly have her back to watch our pet in the future.”

About: I’ve loved caring for various pets over the years. Growing up, I’ve been fortunate to be in a family that adores and cherishes our pets. We currently have 6 (3 dogs, 3 cats). Since I was about 15 years old, I’ve spent time helping family, friends, and neighbors with caring for their pets, including staying at their home to be with their fur babies. I have worked with large dogs (American Bulldogs, Pitbulls, etc.) and I have also dealt with small animals (Yorkies, Minidoodles, etc.). I love pets of all kind and would take great care of yours. My services can be dog sitting at your place, taking them for walks, feeding them, or even if you need someone to just visit them to make sure they are okay! I am currently working on my Master’s. My flexibility is open, aside from Thursday’s and Friday afternoons. Otherwise, I am available during weekdays and weekends at pretty much any time, as long as we plan in a reasonable time frame. I will provide services based on your preferences. As for dog walking, I would prefer your dog have a harness and rope leash as these have historically been the most durable for me. However, I’m not too picky and will adjust based on your pets usual care routines.

About: Hi y'all! I am an all around animal lover. My girls and I take any dogs that we are watching on walks with us every night, we have lots of fun. Pets are allowed on the furniture, unless you state explicitly state you don't want them to be. I prefer not to kennel overnight, but there are always exceptions to the rule! I am able to help with puppies and older pups alike; age is not an issue. Please ask any questions you may have for me, thank you so much we can’t wait to meet you! I am currently working part time but I am always available for nightly drop ins or for any early morning stops on my way in. I am always respectful of your safety protocols, gates are always double and triple checked, doors are always checked to be shut correctly. Food and water levels are consistently monitored. Instructions are always followed to the letter.

“This was our first time using Rover and Angie was WONDERFUL!! Our dogs loved her, our house was spotless after her stay, and she was great about communicating and sending pictures and updates. She’s also just a kindhearted, mature, responsible person and we’d absolutely book her again:)”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, presence, and attention I bring to every pet I look after. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility and availability to give pets consistent companionship and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important routines, comfort, and trust are—especially when someone else is caring for a beloved pet. I’m naturally nurturing, detail-oriented, and communicative, which means you’ll always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 wonderful animal adoring children. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. During their stay, your pet will experience all the best parts of our family just as if they were our own. When caring for your pets in a clients home, I do my best to adhere to all routines and schedules so the pets can feel as comfortable as possible. I will respect your home and keep everything clean, organized, and calm. I’m more than happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to provide a loving and safe environment for you and your pet so you can rest assured knowing that they are being taken care of to your standards.

About: Since 9, I have cared for animals of all ages. I have experience in at home grooming and pet training as well. Rover allows me to connect with not only your pets, but their lovely owners. As a new graduate student, I freed up my schedule to give me plenty of time to assist in pet owners’ needs. Currently, I work part-time, weekends are ideal! I own a senior border collie and young dachshund that are equally socialized to play with other dogs / cats. I grew up with all types of animals. Therefore, I can offer a variety of services.

“Ben was great! Showed up on time and my normally skittish to strangers dog felt comfortable within a few minutes. He even sent me photos of them playing frisbee. Would def book again.”

About: Ariana has taken care of dogs since she was 10 years old. She has experience with many types of dogs such as Australian Sheppards, Labradors, Huskies, mixed breeds, Pitt bulls, Shih Tzus, etc. Ari has some experience with grooming, puppy training, bathing, nail clipping, and even administering oral medication. She has LOTS of experience playing with dogs so she will have ways to keep your pups engaged and happy! Ariana pays close attention to the animals in her care which will allow her to notice any abnormalities or issues, and help her cater to the needs of your pets. In addition to dog care, Ariana also has extensive experience with cats, horses, bunnies, and miniature donkeys; and some experience with pet cows, pet sheep, chickens, ducks, and fish. I am currently working two jobs. One is Saturday and Sunday from 8 to 5 or 6. The other is Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and some Tuesday's, usually from 12 to 3. I have availability before and after my weekday job and occasionally on Friday. I am able to offer flexible or consistent services (for example: occasionally house sitting, or weekly dog walking) for you and your pets! I am willing to accept stays longer than one week depending on the circumstances. I do not currently offer services from my home, but I am more than happy to provide on-site services at your home. I have a decent amount of experience providing care for people’s dogs, cats, and other animals within their homes.

“We are so thrilled to be working with Lisa — our dog Grace immediately loved her, and she is so happy and tired after their time together. Lisa is super communicative and made us feel so comfortable from the first time we met her.”
