Pet Sitting in Bolton

“So glad to have found Rebecca when my regular sitter went on maternity leave. Rebecca actually suggested a drop in visit to meet my pup, and it was great to see how perfect they got along and how Rebecca spent this initial time with my dog. Rebecca is enthusiastic, goes above and beyond during her visits and is responsive and dependable. Highly recommended!”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I cared for hamsters, fish, and even a little parakeet. At 19, I adopted Max, a sweet lab mix who became my constant travel companion for 11 wonderful years as we explored the East Coast together. I’ve raised all my dogs from puppyhood, giving me plenty of experience with training, socializing, and caring for them through every stage of life. Today, my family and I live on 220 beautiful acres in Chestertown with: Beauty – Aussie Heeler mix (5) Scooby – lovable mutt (2) Yakko & Dot – tuxedo cats (3) 70+ chickens with big personalities A lively 55-gallon aquarium with community fish and snails, which has taught me the importance of maintaining delicate habitats Living with so many animals — from dogs and cats to chickens and aquarium life — has taught me patience, adaptability, and the joy of connecting with creatures of all kinds. Whether it’s walking a high-energy dog, keeping a shy cat comfortable, or caring for fish and poultry, I treat every animal like they’re part of my family. I split my time between Chestertown and Glens Falls, which means I can offer flexible pet care in both areas. I’m available for drop-in visits in Glens Falls on the days I’m there, as well as home stays in either location. I’m currently recovering from a car accident and walk with a cane, so while I can’t take dogs on long walks, I can safely let them out into a fenced yard or supervise them on a lead. At this time, I’m not offering boarding services in my own home, but I do plan to in the future. For now, my focus is on providing reliable, in-home care and check-ins so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, their safety and comfort always come first. In your home, I follow your routines closely — from feeding schedules to favorite playtime activities — so pets feel secure in their familiar space. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep an eye on water and food bowls, and provide supervised outdoor time in fenced areas or on a lead. In my home (for future boarding services), pets will enjoy a calm, animal-friendly environment on our 220-acre property, safely separated from my own animals as needed. I have experience managing dogs, cats, poultry, and aquarium life, which means I’m attentive to different needs and personalities. As a volunteer firefighter here in Chestertown, safety and responsibility are part of my everyday life. I also believe trust is built through clear communication — you can expect regular updates, photos, and honest feedback while your pets are in my care.

“Victoria is very helpful and responsible. She kept me updated on any issue she saw with my dog during the visit and ensure that my dog has fresh water.”

“I reached out to Brittney at the last minute one evening and needed someone for the next day. She was great and responded quick to help out. She treated my dog amazing and would definitely recommend and will be reaching out to her again! Thank you!!”

About: I’ve been an owner of golden retrievers and cats since I was a child and have been tasked to care for them from a young age. I’ve always have a kindred way with animals which is why I’ve been asked to pet sit for friends, family, neighbors since childhood. I’m fun loving, safe, reliable and a good source of energy for your pet. I would be grateful to assist you. I’m currently building a business on my own hours which means I have a very flexible schedule and can help with last minute cancellations, as well as short or long term assistance. I’m more interested in assisting in the clients home as I have multiple animals in my apartment and I share it with a couple roommates. I’m very much open to taking your dogs (or cats) for walks, feeding, staying with them.

About: I have always loved animals and I have my own as well. I take care of my senior pup along with caring for friends and families pets as well. Always a good time with extra love to give. Reliable and fun. I work five days a week at a marina however, I am always open at night and on my days off I am more than happy to care for your animals. To care for my own pet I take him out multiple times a day, I walk him, feed him, bathe him, and so much more but with other animals it varies, depending on the instructions given by the owner is what I will do along with extra love.

“We just moved to a new area and our dogs were a little anxious, but we unfortunately had a wedding to attend and needed a sitter. Jaimi was great with our two dogs, sending lots of photos, and even looked after our chickens! Our dogs warmed up to her right away. I will definitely be asking Jaimi to dogsit again in the future!”

“Michaela was great!! My family took a last minute day trip and she had no problem being quick to respond YES to the booking. Great communication and she followed all the directions! My dog Archie seemed to enjoy her company and she took great pics of him. Thank you for taking care of my second child and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable person to take care of their dogs. I will be using her again in the future A+++”

“Meghan was great! The last time we hired a walker, one of our pups didn’t walk. He wouldn’t leave the house and we had to call in a favor from family. We asked Meghan to meet the dogs and cat before her first walk, and we found her to be calm, polite, and very pleasant around the dogs. They warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone, she walked the dogs twice a day, including the one who was socially anxious. Our house looked great when we got home and the animals were in very good spirits. We will definitely use Meghan again!”

About: I’m an active individual and love animals! I grew up around big dogs, lots of cats, and farm animals. I love all animals and pets of all shapes and sizes! I have a busy schedule and understand the struggles of finding someone to help watch your pets that you know and trust will do a great job. I am here to help whenever I can! Just let me know. :) I have an extremely open schedule at the moment and can typically do day of requests! I am always game for a quick pop in and walk to get some extra steps in. I am attentive to details and a very clean individual. My plan is to follow all instructions provided to ensure your pet is as comfortable and as happy as possible.

“Liz did a great job with our boy, Churro! He loves Liz and her gentle nature. She did exactly as we asked and more. She played with Churro so he wouldn’t be so antsy when we got home which was very nice. And she stayed around and gave him a treat stick! We will definitely be using Liz in the future.”

About: As a mom of 5 teenagers, I often prefer dogs to people! (Though I am sure my girl dog, Harley, is picking up some attitude from them!) I’ve had dogs most of my life, and I have often cared for my friends and family’s pets, as well. I currently have three dogs, including a 15-year old Yorkie. Experienced with feeding, giving medicine, crates, walking, play, and, of course, petting and loving! I’m currently off for the summer, so I have lots of time to help with your dog(s)! Walking, playing, feeding, keeping them company - I am happy to make it work! I understand the importance of consistency and schedules, so I am happy to follow your rules and preferences for your dog. While I will love them as if they were my own, I won’t return them as if I sent them to my Grandma’s to be spoiled! I believe in positive reinforcement, treats if you do them, lots of love and positive words, playtime, and meeting them where they’re at.

About: I have a senior dog with epilepsy who needs special feeding care and long stimulating walks. Along with two cats I rescued off the street. I'm currently a college student with my summer off. Learning the in's and outs of the new city I will be calling home. My current schedule has me set for Tuesday and Wednesday off while my shifts vary through the week so accommodations are also able to be made for other days I check the weather before I walk my dog to make sure he is dressed appropriately for the elements. Making sure his harness, leash, and treat bag are ready for our adventure! While my cats have a clean litterbox every day.

“Emily was the closest Rover sitter to me in a remote location, put she was still about 20 minutes away. She stopped by AFTER a full days work, which was at least another 20 minutes in the opposite direction from me. Despite these logistics, Emily showed up consistently early evening immediately after her work day. She performed all the duties necessary during each visit, plus she performed some special handling for a package that arrived while I was away. I would not hesitate using her again, and would recommend her.”

“She’s the best! Whit and Larry love her.”

About: I grew up surrounding myself with animals, since I was seven I spent all of my time at our horse farm and I learned to take care of animals big and small. This grew into my life passion which is animals. I studied animal science at UMASS Amherst and UNLV and also have worked at various animal clinics with different roles as a kennel technician and a veterinarian assistant learning so many skills along the way. Yet my favorite thing I have done so far is taking care of animals while their families enjoy a vacation away! It takes the stress out of going to the kennel, the animals get to show me the ropes and the owners always have daily updates and pictures! I currently work part time at a local restaurant, and my shifts are typically mid afternoon to the evening, but I am flexible upon request!! I am more comfortable coming to a clients home. I own two cats and unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard. But there are parks around my neighborhood that are great for walks.

“Caitlyn was friendly and dependable. She provided regular updates while we were away. Would definitely have her take care of our pet again.”

About: I’m a big dog loving guy, looking to make some extra money. Don't let me fool you though. I love any size dog. I’ve had dogs all my life, ranging from a Chihuahua to Saint Bernard's. Whether they are sweet or mean, it doesn’t matter to me. I always find a way to bond with the dog. If you are looking for someone to do "drops ins" and "pee breaks", or a quick walk because you are late coming home from work; or maybe perhaps stay the weekend with you dog, I’m your guy. I work a Monday through Friday, full time job during the day. I’m always available before or after work, every night, and weekends work great for me too. Of course I would like to meet the dog first, but I don’t think I’ve ever met a dog that I haven’t gotten along with or bonded with. I’ve had a few dogs throughout my life and I treat them like my own children, as I would yours. I’m available for let outs every night of the week, and depending on my schedule, I can stay with your dogs on the weekends. Depending on my schedule, I may be able to do stay overs during the week as well.

“This was our first time leaving Buddy under the care of Brandy and she did great. I received photos of him and never had to worry that he wasn't being cared for. I would highly recommend her.”

About: Friends and family have relied on me to walk & check in on their pups for years, and now I want to extend my services! I’m currently working part time which gives me a flexible schedule to accommodate clients on a basis that best works for them. Whether it be a drop in or long walk, my availability gives me the opportunity to help make sure your dog is happy as can be. Due to my experience with dogs over the years, I’m able to meet most requests while also providing a trusting relationship & safe environment for your pup.
