“First of all you have to be a dog person to be a great dog sitter. Kristen and Mark are just remarkable dog people! Kristen reminds me of Cesar! Very thoughtful in their approach to care. They have a wonderful safe environment with company and play and a place for calm respite. Kristen got my girl to eat on the first night away! That never happens. Thank you for the all the kind attention and videos! Really hope to pass this way again !”
“Bob took such wonderful care of our pup over our wedding weekend! Our dog had such a good time and Bob even gave us updates (per our request ☺️). Thank you so much, Bob!!”
About: Never have I been without a pet. Life is nothing without the love and companionship of a pet. I am a lover of all animals, but dogs hold my heart. I do work full time at a veterinary office as a care coordinator. I am looking to offer weekend care, and may, possibly expand hours/days in the future. I live on a 1.5 acre. I have a small, fenced in yard 10 x 30. Am able to leash walk on the property, and live on a back road which is perfect for leash walking.
“Brittany was very responsive from the beginning. She took great care of Maple, sent some pictures while we were gone and gave Maple lots of attention so we could spend the day in Cooperstown with our kids. Thanks Brittany!”
“I found a Blue Ribbon dog sitter in Nicole! She takes my dog Poppy to her house and is very punctual in drop off and return. She says her kids love having Poppy stay with them. I feel absolutely free from any worry and Poppy loves to see me again upon return.”
“Jenny is super easy to communicate with and flexible! She’s very friendly and I felt my dog was very safe with her. We actually needed to cancel our booking so Daisy only spent a few hours with her but she had already sent us a photo! I will definitely be booking with Jenny in the future.”
About: I am available to walk/do drop ins/some house sitting &/or overnight stays & cat sitting/drop ins anytime in the Shandaken, NY area. I have many years experience with animals, three grown kids & I am an avid animal rescue supporter including having my own rescue animal. I work part time on my own schedule so my availability is flexible & I can work with you & your needs! I am not able to provide in home care due to my Rescue dog being touchy with other animals, especially dogs but am available anytime for walks/drop ins, cat care, etc.... I will not be providing care in my home but I clean Rental homes for a living & will keep the same aspects in mind while being in your home/s, I will always be respectful of your space & your animals while providing the best care possible & will always leave your home the same as I found it. Thank you so much!
“Very pleased that our pooch Ozzy had a very enjoyable time with Kylie! She sent updates and pics on how his stay was going. Looks like he had a great time. Will definitely book again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone to provide excellent care of their pet!!”
“Steve did a great job with Tot. He sent photos and videos of her while he was watching her, which made me smile. Would definitely recommend him to watch and care for your fur babies.”
“Melissa is fantastic! I was quite anxious about leaving our new puppy with her but Melissa put my mind at ease and Primrose absolutely loved her dog(s)! Melissa didn’t mind my checking in and sent me updates with photos while we were away. She has definitely got a way with dogs and her energy is very calm and positive. She well socialized Primrose the entire weekend and when we arrived to pick her up, she was so happy and exhausted from all her play time! She almost didn’t want to leave her new buddies! I highly recommend Melissa and will most definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from cats & dogs to fluffy chinchillas! I have special experience working with powerful breeds, including retired and aspiring K9s, as well as senior & special needs pets. My home comes equipped with accessiblity tools like pet stairs & ramps suitable for even larger dogs. Our quarter acre is unfenced, but we do have a small enclosed area off the porch & several long leads to enjoy more of the grassy lawn. Safety is paramount. I’m comfortable giving medication, following specialized diets, & assisting with mobility issues. I’m an experienced pet parent who just said goodbye to my 17 year old rescue pitbull; I’d like to open my now-too-quiet home to your beloved family members. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ friendly ❤️ I’m a professional writer who works exclusively from home. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to any specific needs, take all the potty breaks, and ensure both enriching play & restorative snuggles. And treats, of course! I have a fenced potty area off my porch for easy quick breaks, and several long leads for exploring the unfenced portions of the property. My senior dog recently passed away but she left soft beds in every room, jars of treats, and a big basket of toys I know she’d love to share.
