Top rated Catskill house sitters

“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”


About: I have been around animals all my life. Born in the country, cows and horses are most common, but I’ve come to love having dogs, cats, and reptiles of my own! There has never been an animal I couldn’t warm up to, and I love getting to know every pets unique personality. I DO OWN PETS, I just am not offering boarding services or requesting sitting services so I would prefer not to share their details! I am always willing to move around my schedule to better fit my clients needs! I have a ride ai depend on for now while I’m learning to drive so I cannot be out too late unless I’m staying the night. I prefer to pet sit or walk pets at other homes, not my own, as I have a reactive dog with history of abuse, and she is not amicable with other pets.

“Michele is an absolute dream! My husband and I booked her for a weekend to watch our senior Basset Hound, Lady, and she made us (and Lady) feel SO at ease. Lady is older and needs medication, so we're always nervous leaving her with other people, but Michele really did such an amazing job with her. She sent us tons of updates throughout the weekend—photos, detailed reports on how everything was going, etc. We felt very comfortable knowing Lady was in such good hands. Michele even went as far as keeping the exact (quite detailed lol) routine we have for Lady and accepted all her quirks with open arms. She really went above and beyond for us. If you're looking for someone who will love your dog as much as you do while you're away, book Michele!”


“Emily is AMAZING and did a fabulous job house + pup sitting while we were out of town. Her warm and caring manner instantly won our pups over and they had a wonderful weekend together. Emily’s proactive communications both before and during her stay here were very reassuring and appreciated. Can’t say enough great things and hope to use Emily many times in the future!!”


“Shanna was absolutely wonderful. She took amazing care of our two babies. One is a puppy and the other needs eye ointment, and she took perfect care of both. Shanna stayed in our house over the weekend and everything was great when we came home. We will absolutely reach out to Shanna again when we need someone to watch our babies.”


“Janice is fantastic. I was in desperate need of a cat sitter for an emergency trip just days away. Janice responded right away and arranged a meet and greet for the next day. She connected with my cat (who is usually a little shy of strangers) right away, and I immediately relaxed knowing he and my home would be in good hands. Janice was very communicative and took care of everything. I came home to a happy boy who had clearly had fun playing while we were away, and I am so grateful to her. I will definitely entrust Janice again for future pet care needs.”


“Simon made our two dogs feel seen and loved. He went above and beyond with them. They took long walks together and spent quality time playing indoors too. I’m grateful to Simon for all he did. Highly recommend him.”


About: What sets me apart is the level of care, presence, and attention I bring to every pet I look after. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility and availability to give pets consistent companionship and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important routines, comfort, and trust are—especially when someone else is caring for a beloved pet. I’m naturally nurturing, detail-oriented, and communicative, which means you’ll always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 wonderful animal adoring children. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. During their stay, your pet will experience all the best parts of our family just as if they were our own. When caring for your pets in a clients home, I do my best to adhere to all routines and schedules so the pets can feel as comfortable as possible. I will respect your home and keep everything clean, organized, and calm. I’m more than happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to provide a loving and safe environment for you and your pet so you can rest assured knowing that they are being taken care of to your standards.

“Sophie cared for our very active Australian Shepherd puppy, cat, and our home with love, skill, and the highest level of professionalism. She was very responsive and eased my anxiety over leaving my boys with pictures and prompt communication. I trust her completely.”


“Sam was an absolutely wonderful home Petsitter for our 2 dogs. She was highly responsible, communicative, took notes, and gave our pups tons of love and attention. At the time of this review, Sam was working out of the house for about 8 hours/day on some days, so I recommend she stay w pets that can manage that. We found her to be very energetic, caring and devoted!”


“Elisha did a wonderful job watching my shy pup and two kitties while we were gone for an evening. Although my dog is rather nervous around strangers, my pup ended up sleeping with Elisha during a storm. It gave me great comfort to know my animals were being looked after during the storm and while we were away. Looking forward to having her watch my pets again next week!! Thanks for everything, Elisha!”


“Rochelle is a wonderful sitter and I'm so grateful to have found her to watch my dog Gogo. I've hired Rochelle for both short and long-term stays and she is my most entrusted sitter. Dedicated, responsible, caring, and experienced.”


About: I’m an avid animal lover and have cared for many fur babies over the years! Friends and family have counted on me to care for their fur babies while they’re away on vacation, daily drop ins, and overnight stays. I am accepting both dog and cat care! My schedule is currently very flexible with dates/times. I am accepting pet drop ins and dog walking, as well as pet sitting in your home! At this time I am not currently accepting boarding in my own home, but I would love to pet sit at yours and give your pets all the love and attention they need!

About: Hello! As a 20 year old who loves dogs I cannot wait to get to know you and your pet! I have had dogs my entire life, I have successfully trained multiple puppies and taken care of senior dogs. I can give your dog the attention they need. I live in an area surrounded by woods and if wanted, two English cocker spaniels to keep great company! I know how nerve wracking it is to find someone who you can trust, it’s a big thing to let something so special be with a complete stranger. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating every pet like family. I offer responsibility, honesty, love, and reliability that you can most importantly, count on. Certifications in Pet first aid, Animal poison control, and Animal Behavior I have plenty of flexibility to focus on providing attentive and reliable care for your pets. I have the time and energy to ensure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-cared for! I provide a safe, loving environment for pets, whether in my home or yours. I ensure their routines are followed, offering care, comfort, and attention.


“Ariel was communicative and reliable, and my pups (who can sometimes be a little crazy and wary of new people) took to her right away. I would gladly have her back to house & puppy sit any time she’s free, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to others.”
