About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life and will happily give your pup the care she/he deserves on walks and visits. I would love to discuss your pet's needs and customize their care accordingly. I have a flexible schedule and can stop by your home for walks and playtime. Please send me a booking request and we can go from there for scheduling. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and routines, stay attentive to a dog’s behavior and surroundings during walks, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re with me.

“We couldn’t be happier with David. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive with dogs.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with many years of hands on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler pace, as well as cats, rabbits, and other small animals. I feel deeply attuned to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I approach every pet with patience, empathy, and genuine affection. Caring for animals is something that comes naturally to me. Friends and family consistently rely on me for regular pet sitting and care because they trust me to be attentive, responsible, and loving. I understand how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I currently work in yoga and childcare, which gives me a flexible schedule and a calm, grounded presence that animals tend to respond well to. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, overnights, or meds/extra TLC, I’m here to provide a safe and nurturing environment. I would love to meet you and your pet and support their routine while you’re away! I work here as a yoga teacher and provide child care to local families, my schedule is very flexible and moves between Beacon and Peekskill. I am happy to adhere to the routines you have created and personalize care based on your fur baby's needs. Walking, overnights, any special care ( treatments/ meds).

“Adriana was very attentive to my dogs. She showed up on time and took photos of them on their walks. We will use her again”

About: • Specialized Senior Pet Care – Gentle handling, mobility support, medication administration, and extra patience for slower-paced walks or special routines. • Health & Comfort Focused – Attentive to changes in mood, appetite, or mobility, with prompt updates if something seems off. • Customized Care – From joint-friendly play to warming up meals, I tailor every visit to your pet’s needs. • Reliable & Communicative – Daily updates with photos and videos so you feel connected and reassured. • Compassionate & Calm – I take my time, ensuring your pet feels safe, loved, and never rushed. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as overnight stays when needed. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication times. Consistency is key, so I make sure my visits are always on time and unrushed—your pet gets my full attention every time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and their animals with the same respect and care as I would my own. I follow the pet’s regular routines—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure fresh water is always available, litter boxes are cleaned, and living areas are tidy. If medications are needed, I administer them exactly as directed. I also spend quality time giving affection and companionship, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Before leaving, I ensure the home is secure, lights and doors are as you prefer, and you receive an update with photos so you know everything is safe and well.

“Marie let me informed on when she was going to arrive. She walked Asher and also took him to the dog Park. I received videos and photos. Asher was sad to see her go.”

About: i’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I was a little girl. I helped my mom out every day with our two dogs that I have in my house and I help my grandpa out with his dog as well. I used to have 100-140 pound Pitbull‘s so I am able to work with big dogs as well. One of my dogs at home is blind, so I do take extra care of him and I am able to work with dogs that need a little extra care I am currently attending college at stony brook university. I am looking for a job to keep me busy but manageable with classes. I am also missing my dogs back at home so I would love to be able to tend to other peoples dogs!! I am available every day of the week, the hours do differ each day depending on my classes that day! I have 2 dogs at home. One of them is blind so i do have to take extra care of him. I take my dogs on daily walks/runs. I also pet sit for my families and friends. My other do at home is very hyper and needs a lot of exercise and I tend to be the one in my family who takes her out and plays with her.

About: I have been pet sitting since the age of 14. I have looked after animals of all kinds, such as dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles, and amphibians. I am comfortable giving medication (outside of injection) and am willing to work with animals of all ages. As we enter the school year I am unavailable for midday drop ins but am available for house sitting or walks after 4pm. This is not my full time position so I will be unavailable from 8am to 4pm. My availability will open up during holiday breaks so keep an eye out for when my availability opens up. I always schedule a meet-and-greet before any care to get to know you and your pets. It helps me ensure I am providing the best care.

“Kiera is an amazing person and dog caregiver. My girls Lily and Layla adore her. I trust her with my dogs and my home. She is very thorough, kind and responsible. Please don’t hesitate to hire her, she is top notch.”

“Timothy was great! This was our first time using his services, and everything went smoothly. He was communicative, easygoing, and very flexible. He even offered to refill our dog’s water bowl! He sent plenty of photos, and our dog looked happy and excited in all of them. We’ll definitely book with him again. Thank you!”
