“Angela is perfection! Not only was my house cleaner than I left it when we returned after a week, but she kept us connected with our pups’ goings on throughout our time away. We are so thankful that our babies were in the great care of Angela and it enabled us to have a stress free time away :) thank you!”


“Trevor took great care of Romeo and our home for us, and we would highly recommend him in the future. He gave us daily pictures and updates to keep us informed. Romeo got lots of exercise, and seems to miss Trevor now that he’s not here! We would love to use Trevor again, knowing Romeo would be in great hands.”


“Rima took care of Bear while we attended a wedding. She was very communicative and made sure our little guy had a fun evening. I would definitely recommend and her style made Bear very relaxed and comfortable even though they had just met the one time. Thank you!”



“Lauren stayed with our dog while we were away for a few days. She is very nice, prompt, and professional. She sent pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. We came home to a happy dog. We got back later than we expected due to airline issues and she was very accommodating by staying until we got home. I highly recommend her.”


“Danica was great! I can't recommend her enough. My pup was well taken care of and I got numerous updates on how he was doing. He is a bit of an anxious boy but any concerns I had of him being uncomfortable were erased at the meet and greet!”


“Lydia stayed at our home with our Husky,Bear. She shared pictures with us everyday and cared for Bear like he was her own. We would definitely recommend Lydia to anyone that wants the best for their pup.”


“We have a very anxious dog with a lot of particularities. Brianna asked questions, and listened to everything I told her about Ali. This was Ali’s first time being dog sat by anyone other than family and we were nervous to say the least, but we came home to a happy cared for dog and the house just like we left it. She gave updates and communicated any concerns. I am very excited to have found someone we trust with our anxious little girl.”


“Haley was an absolute gem when it came to taking care of our two dogs, Murphy and Rosie. From the moment she met them, it was clear she genuinely loves animals. Both dogs warmed up to her instantly. She kept us updated with photos and little notes. I wholeheartedly recommend Haley to anyone who wants a responsible and caring dog sitter !”


“Alyssa did a great job watching our two dogs. She fed them and let them out according to directions and they enjoyed spending time with her. We would book her again in the future.”


“Anna was an excellent house sitter to our nervous greyhound and cat. She sent daily updates at least and took booker for the walks he needed. She went above and beyond keeping our house in order. We spent the vacation knowing our pets were cared for and came back to clean house. Highly recommend (unless we need her ;-) )”



About: I’ve taken care of many types of pets including dogs, cats, rats, lizards, and many others. My main skills that I prioritize include basic dog training. Structured walks available. I’m currently full time (work from home) and can be available on the specified days I have listed on my profile. Open to specific requests if needed! I care for pets according to the owners specific situation and requests. Please advise on the rules and they will be followed to the best of my abilities !

“Jess stayed in my home for 15 days and took care of my mini pig (lives inside), 3 cats, and fish. She went above and beyond. She had some issues with a grumpy pig the first few days and I am beyond grateful that she stuck it out and gave him the time and patience he needed for her to be accepted into his circle. She really made our trip so much more relaxing as I didn't have to worry about my fur babies or home while we were across the world. I appreciate her effort, time, and love she gave to my pets. I will definitely have Jess back and recommend her!”


About: I’ve pet sit for neighbors and friends since high school and always had a great time. I can be patient and am good with giving medications if required. I am planning on doing this part time while doing college online so my schedule is very flexible. I would also be open to doing weekly appointments. I typically try to be minimally invasive when I pet sit at others home and follow the directions left to me. I always try to get a dog I’m sitting for out every two hours unless otherwise told.

“Jodi is amazing. Will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future ! Great communication and having her watch our pets was a perfect. We happily enjoyed our wedding knowing they were safe and loved.”


About: Dog owner of 12 years, currently living alone with no other pets & fenced in yard. I would love to provide you and your loved ones with reliable, loving care and meet them where they're at. *Experience boarding dogs for one night to several months *Experience walking dogs periodically and daily *Experience staying at pet owners' home and tending to plants *Experience with shy dogs I work a hybrid work schedule. I work from home Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays. Wednesdays and Fridays I am out of the house for about 9 hours from 8:30-5:30. I currently live alone in a house 1 bedroom home with a fenced in back yard. I am able to provide dedicated attention and comfortable surroundings for your loved ones. I have room for crates as needed. I like to be active and fun with your loved ones - I'm happy to go for walks, run around in the yard, whatever they enjoy best.


About: My grandfather and mother both have an animal science background so I was raised with a knowledge of animals and how special they are from a very early age. Because of this, I care deeply for the well being of your pet and treat them as my own. I think animals reflect the best of human behavior. I believe that animals have an innate power to heal and connect that is awe-inspiring. This ability I witnessed first hand growing up with a golden retriever and a German shepherd, the later becoming a therapy dog and certified pet partner for my family. Lastly, I have taken care of dogs of all ages and breeds from 1 month to 16 years, from 15-130+lbs, and done some by house sitting, walking, and boarding. I love all dogs, but am partial to bigger ones because that it was I grew up with since age 10. I currently work full time so I am available after or before business hours during the weekdays (8am-5pm, Monday-Friday) or anytime on the weekends to walk, visit with or house/dog sit. I currently WFH on Fridays, so my house/dog sitting is limited to Friday - Sunday. I can commute from anywhere in the metro Albany or Saratoga Springs, NY region so dog walking and/or drop-in visits are posible any day, most weeks. I will do my best to make your dog feel like nothing has changed in their own space (your home). On walks and during play visits, I will make sure they are comfortable, constantly watching body language for anxiety, fear, and exhaustion, etc. and will let their behavior dictate the pace, duration, where we go, and when bathroom breaks are needed. I treat walk and play time as their time and I am just there to make sure they have the most enjoyable time possible, while protecting their safety and health.

“I highly recommend Maria. She is trustworthy, responsive and reliable. She contacted me when Molly was shaking due to fireworks in our neighborhood to make sure this is typical. 8 forgot to warn her and was very happy she reached out to me. Molly had a wonderful time with her and was not as excited to see me as I expected. (because she was content with Maria). This was my first time with a house sitter and I was so pleased to return home with my house as clean as I left it. I will be using her again.”
