“Jack has been a terrific sitter for our dogs. He shows up exactly when he says he will, which already puts him in rare company, and he stays consistently communicative. We get updates and photos throughout each visit, and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys spending time with our girls. He also takes their “loud greetings” in stride—they give him an earful every time he arrives, and he never flinches. Reliable, responsive, and unfazed by a couple of vocal pups, Jack has been a real find!”

“TJ was great with Georgie, she was very happy as evidenced in the pictures TJ sent to us several times a day. He even made sure she had a good walk before we came home in the event our flight was delayed. Very happy with his care.”


“Jordan spent the weekend with my two senior dogs and she was awesome! She stayed in touch, sent some photos, and asked a few important questions to make sure my girl with a sensitive tummy was allowed to have treats before she gave them. My dogs were very content when we got home. Will definitely hire Jordan again!”

“If I could give Rebecca more than five stars, I would! From the moment she walked in and greeted our pups, we knew they would be in good hands and we did not have to worry while we were attending a family wedding. Her skills at handling two puppies was nothing short of impressive. Her communication and people skills also made her a standout. She was super pleasant from the get go and made our first experience with Rover was wonderful! Thank you Rebecca!”

“Anel has a wonderful combination of being professional and warm at the same time. She was easy to communicate with and was on time. Lilly enjoyed her caring attention and I felt comfortable with leaving Lilly in her care. I am looking forward to working with Anel next time I need a dog sitter!”

About: Hi. My name is Kiki and I love dogs!! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I was a manager at a cage-free dog daycare for 5 years, where I handled everything from group play supervision to administering medications and managing daily care routines. I also volunteered for 3 years at Second Chance Dog Rescue, helping with socialization, walking, and basic training. In addition, I’ve provided trusted pet sitting services in Peekskill, NY for 5 years until the family relocated. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering all types of medications, and have a dog of my own—so I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I have a car, am highly dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Although I work full-time and attend school, I have large daily time blocks available between commitments, which I dedicate to pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits I care for every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while following their regular routine, my skills are administering medications, and giving personalized attention. Every pet has a specific personality so I try to respect that much like people.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and currently have three dogs at my parents house that I care for regularely when my parents need me to and I love it. I’ll come with treats and if your dog has any dietary restrictiond please let me know :) I’m currently working for Arc Midhudson on thurs-Sun at the moment! Sometimes there is variation in that schedule but that it for the most part :) I have a medical condition that may make me have to re schedule appointments but hopefully we can work together on it !! I could teach your dogs some basic tricks like sit and I am a good leash handler. I carry around a fanny pack with my dog stuff in it so it’s hands free and accessible for me.
“Emily was super excited to stay with my pups even with their quirks and was able to book within a week of my vacation and meet them when I had a last minute cancelation with someone else! She was very responsive both before and during my trip and kept me updated about my dogs with pictures which was super appreciated! She was also able to give medication to one of them as needed and follow the food directions as well as made time to sit with one of them who will only eat with company. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Thu was amazing. I had another sitter booked who canceled on me on Thanksgiving morning! Thu saved the day! She spent lots of time loving my babies and sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her.”

“Maura Kate was fantastic and braved a really bad snowstorm to make sure our Toby was taken care of properly while we were away! She has excellent communication and kept us informed during her stay with Toby! Highly recommend!”

“Jenna did an amazing job… I got married it was little hectic but she was definitely go with the flow which I love. Sprocket my dog was very comfortable around Jenna which I love and needed someone that day who is comfortable so it made my day 10x better! So thank you again Jenna💞”

About: I do need the money, but I’m honestly on here just because I miss walking dogs, and really enjoy spending time with animals in general. I grew up with cats and dogs and now have two cats of my own. I enjoy all aspects of pet care and look forward to assisting with yours! I am currently in between jobs and have availability throughout most of the week (aside from appointments and interviews!) I am free most days and look forward to helping with your pet care! I believe that respecting an animal’s space and boundaries is super important, especially in their own environment. I try to respond based on their comfort and go from there.
“Our fur family was in great hands with Abbey. Everyone had their walks, meals, and cuddles on time, and we got lots of photos which made us relax while were away. Thank you!”

“Preston watched my 2.5 year old sheepadoodle Archie for just under 2 weeks while I was traveling. I highly recommend Preston to anyone who needs a house sitter. He was great with Archie and provided me updates as needed and was easy to get a hold of. He even began training Archie on some different skills. He even left my house cleaner than when I left it. Preston was a great choice for house sitting and I will definitely try to use him again if I ever need someone to watch my pup and house!”

“Wonderful!! Katie is so kind and has the calmest demeanor. As soon as we did a meet and greet I felt so comfortable leaning my dog Sophie in her care. Katie provided photos and in depth updates so I had nothing to worry about! Great communicator and do easy to work with. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be using her again!”


“We love Jacquie! She is flexible and reliable. Our dog smiles on the photos she takes of him. Best indicator that he lives her. Also our plants survived after we were gone for ten days. Also thankful for that!”

Preston was absolutely amazing with Bruno! Bruno can definitely be a handful, but Preston handled him with patience, care, and professionalism every step of the way. He went above and beyond by taking Bruno on walks, keeping him engaged, and even helped teach him how to use his communication buttons. I can tell Bruno was taken well cared of and genuinely enjoyed his time with Preston. The updates gave me peace of mind, and I came home to my happy sweet baby angel. I highly recommend Preston to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family! 💜💜💜

She was also able to give medication to one of them as needed and follow the food directions as well as made time to sit with one of them who will only eat with company.

Jonathan provided excellent care to my two senior dogs. One of them is a diabetic and blind and requires adhering to a strict feeding and medicine schedule. Jonathan followed the schedule and my dog was very healthy and happy when I returned home. I received daily updates and photos so that I could see how both of my dogs were doing. His consistent communication and care made it so much easier to travel away from home. I would definitely rebook!
Loren met with me initially. I could see that she and my cat were completely comfortable with each other. Loren stayed over at my home while I was away for a business trip. Loren sent me photos of my cat morning and evening, reassuring me that all was well. I returned home to find everything tidy. My cat was relaxed and peaceful. That's the best compliment I can give. The whole experience with Loren was 5-star from start to finish. My cat and I absolutely recommend Loren

Bryanna was fantastic! She accepted our last-minute request to dog sit on July 4th and made everything easy. She communicated clearly, showed up right on time, and took great care of our dogs, EJ and Raven. Although she had to leave a little early, she made sure our dogs were all set and comfortable before heading out. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and responsibility. We'd absolutely recommend Bryanna and would gladly book with her again!
