About: I've been caring for a variety of animals my whole life and have owned cats and dogs my whole adult life. I've recently been given the honour and opportunity to raise my Rottweiler puppy. I have spent countless hours researching best practices and would love to help with exercising your puppy pal. I hike, walk, beach and do whatever you need for your four legged family. I've had experience administering medication and providing special needs. I am currently working part time and crafting but would love to be caring for animals full time eventually. I'm happy to work any day and transport pets to preferred walking and caring spaces. I prioritize quality enrichment. My walks with my own dog are very much for him. He's welcome to sniff as much as he wants. I am capable of following any and all direction about your dog to stay as close to the quality of your own care as possible and give your dog the best experiences I can.
About: I have lived with animals my entire life! Currently I have a dog and a cat. My dog is a 2.5 year old beagle and my cat is about 5 years old and he's a grey long haired cat. They both get along great (at times) and I love having them in my life. I have had experience with administering medications to dogs and cats, administering insulin to dogs, bottle feeding puppies, taking care of litters of puppies, teaching commands, mentally stimulating both dogs and cats and making sure they are physically stimulated as well. I do it daily with my own but I am a full time student at the moment. I have classes both online and in person but I only go in person a few days a week so I have lots of time to take care of your animals. I do not offer in home but when I am in a clients home I treat it and their animals as if they are my own. I go and do the job that I am there to do without causing any problems.
About: I have grown up in a household full of dogs my whole life always averaging around four dogs. Right now I have four dogs back home in Minnesota. We own two Weimaraner's, one American Bulldog Pitbull mix, and a Beagle Yellow lab mix. They are all energetic and outgoing and so am I but they like to keep me on my toes. I am capable of working with dogs of all ages and sizes. Currently live in beacon hill which is close to the common where your dog can have the time of its life playing fetch and meeting new dogs. Best time is from 11am-3pm daily, but willing to be flexible! Just finished school and have a very open schedule, excited to get to spend time with your dog! In Beacon Hill there are multiple dog park that have fences where your dog can roam around off-leash. Living near the common is great and a fun area to walk your dog to help them socialize and get great exercise. I live in an apartment that does not have any other pets.
About: I’m a certified dog trainer. Member National Association Dog Obedience Instructors, 6 year alumni with Susan Garrett’s Recallers, 9 years as trainer for large box store. I’ve dog sat for the past decade and have customers that come from over 3 hours away. I’ve previously bred dogs and fostered for over 30 years. I’m self employed as a trainer but also have always included dog sitting for clients who didn’t want to kennel their dogs. I do go to clients homes for training or dog walking but I am not gone for long hours so dog/cat sitting works great. I can schedule my days so both boarded dogs and training clients get all the attention needed. I have a lovely quiet farm that is the perfect place for animal care. Technically I do not have a fenced yard by I do have large indoor arena that dogs can safely play off leash in a completely secure area. I started pet sitting because I had clients that had dogs that would not have been ok in a commercial kennel. I am a perfect situation for anxious or elderly dogs. Also a great situation for puppies who may not thrive in a kennel. My own dogs are great and use to dogs coming and going. I moved to Brockville from Durham region and although many of my regular dogs still come and stay with me I do have availability and would love some regular dogs from this area.
“It was a pleasure to have Kindra walk Bosun! Bosun was very happy to see Kindra each day and Kindra was very professional, responsive, and reliable, we are beyond grateful!”
“Kambree has come with rave reviews and is a local gem for upstaters!! I am a millennial dog mom by definition and very cautious about my fur babies. Kambree was very informed and willing to work with us on a walking schedule and eventual daycare needs. Socializing my baby boy, having a reliable, understanding daycare provider, and someone who loves dogs as much as I do, Kambree checks all of these! Bleu had a great walk with Kambree and I LOVED THE PHOTOS!”
“Akira was wonderful with our 8 month old aussiedoodle. She was 100% reliable and genuinely cared for our beloved puppy. He looked forward to, and was very excited for, every walk he took with Akira.”
About: I love being around animals and spending time with them. I find myself walking in the outdoors a lot which I would love to do with dogs! I currently work part time over the summer and I am also a full time college student. I am looking to care for more animals over the summer whenever needed. I am up to changing my availability at work to fit the needs of the animals I need to watch! I have a very large front and backyard that animals love. I have one dog and three cats that are all very friendly towards others.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I’m originally from a small town in New York and I was essentially the girl to turn to if a family was going out of town and in need of a dog or cat sitter. I am an experienced dog walker as well and can easily keep pets in a steady routine and maintain crate care. The families I pet-sat for returned to me when they traveled. I am a reliable and responsible caretaker who will ensure your pet is loved and cared for so you can rest easy while away from your fur baby. I am a screenwriter who is currently in between jobs due to the strike and just graduating from my master’s degree program this May. I am available all days of the week and can easily work with your schedule. I live in an apartment building in a safe and quiet area in West Adams. My building has 24 hour security and lots of residential streets with wide sidewalks and grassy knolls near it where dogs are frequently walked. My apartment has lots of open space that can accommodate dogs and cats and provide them with plenty of room to play and rest. I am completely comfortable taking care of pets in your home and will gladly keep your pets on your desired schedule and walk them on your normal routes.
About: I grew up with intelligent dog breeds. When I was little we had Huskies, and German Shepards. Then In high school I got two Australian Shepards within the span of 2 years, and trained them both. I have since adopted an elderly Australian Shepard, so now I have three dogs. I am a winter sports fan, and an avid hiker, I love the outdoors, and like the cold. I have dog friendly transportation. I am currently a volunteer and the Potsdam Humane Society, and I am in training there to handle reactive dogs. I am a full time student at St. Lawrence University. My schedule is typically very consistent, with exception to around holiday times. I am available from 3:00p.m.-5:00p.m. M and W, 10:30a.m.-5:00p.m. T and Th, 1:00p.m. F, 8:00a.m.-5:00p.m. Sat-Sun for dog walking/hiking. I have grown up handling dogs my entire life. I promise to make your dog feel safe and relaxed, to allow them to get their energy out, and to give your dog the ability to get the exercise they desperately need, while you're away at work.
About: My family have had rescue dogs since before I was born and I was raised around a variety of dogs of different temperaments and energy levels. I am comfortable with timid and reactive dogs and have trained my dogs to perform a variety of tricks. I work remotely and generally open availability, though I am not available on the weekends. I am ideal if your dog needs mid-day walks or company while you are away at work. I live with both cats and dogs and don't offer in-house pet sitting but am comfortable traveling to you to walk or watch your pet.

Sydney Tietz T.
“I’ve been close friends and roomates with Syd for 4 years now, and I don’t know anyone who’s a more perfect loving and responsible pet caregiver than her. She loves dogs more than anything and always talks about her own and the things she’s done with them and continues to do for them. She even makes sure to FaceTime them everyday haha. Simply put, she’s an absolutely amazing dog mom herself. Everytime we past by dogs on the street too where we live in Beacon Hill she always loves to say hi and pet them too and mentions how much she really wants to walk dogs and meet new ones. She’s an extremely responsible person, she’s proved this in all situations whether it was at school, around the house, at sports, at work, in her friendships, and with her family. I could not recommend anyone better than her to be the most amazing pet caregiver.”
Cheryl H.

She is extremely reliable and a wonderful option for dog boarding when you want your dog to have a safe vacation, not be left in a kennel. You will never have to worry if your dog is okay if you board them with Cheryl.”
