About: While I don't have any special training with animals, I like to listen to what the owner and the animal needs for care. I genuinely love hanging out with them. I love how excited dogs get when I walk into a house, or how free they feel and excited they are for a walk. Or when cats rub up against you and love getting pets. Pets are like people, they're all unique and have their own personality and needs. That's what makes pets awesome, how different they all are. I'm currently working a few hours each week from home, so I have plenty of free time to hang out with pups, or kitties, or take dogs for a much need walk or bathroom break. Well that depends on the animal, because each pet is different. how comfortable they are with me, how many times do I need to be introduced to them, how the owner would like me to care for them. Theres a lot of factors that come into play, so I am willing to do what the owner would like to be done for their own pet.

About: Throughout my life, I’ve always surrounded myself with animals. Ive owned horses, dogs, and cats and also have extensive experience with rescue dogs who have endured trauma. I have yet to meet an animal that I haven’t befriended and continue to work closely with rescues and assist people in rehoming their pets. I just left my job as a social worker and am currently pursuing my MSW. I am looking for a part time gig to help get me through school, so my schedule is pretty open. :) I normally go for a morning walk with my own rescue pup and then hit the yoga mat and get some school work done. My schedule is very flexible. I have a rescue dog who does not get along with other doggos (disappointing but we respect his boundaries). Therefore, I wouldn’t be able to house your doggo at my home but open to house sitting and for advance notice clients, I can have my father watch my dog for a week or so.

I also send A LOT of pictures of your fur-child throughout their stay with me to put you at ease.

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Daniel — a lifelong animal lover and reliable sitter based in Plattsburgh, NY. Over the years, I’ve cared for six dogs of my own and have regularly walked and dog-sat for friends, neighbors, and local clients. Whether it’s a brisk walk, some much-needed playtime, or a cozy companion while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m a 26 year old creative/entrepreneur focused on my growth but pet care is something I’ve always enjoyed, taken seriously, and do as a side hustle. My schedule is flexible, especially on holidays, and I’ll do everything I can to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine. I understand pets can get nervous when their humans are away. That’s no problem — I’m calm, patient, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're gone. If you ever have questions, I’m always just a message away! 🗓️ My hours are flexible! I currently work part-time at a restaurant in Plattsburgh but when the day winds down, I'm a self employed musician/entrepreneur. Don't hesitate to reach out with the dates and times you need cause I'm sure I can fit your furry friend into my week! 🏡 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I make sure they’re well exercised, fed, and relaxed — whether we’re out for a walk or just hanging out. I’m gentle but confident when working with animals and understand that each one has their own unique needs and behaviors. I’m here to make them feel at home, even when they’re not.

About: J'ai eu la chance de grandir autour d'animaux, donc prendre soin de chiens et de chats m'est naturel et instinctif (et me comble de bonheur). Il y a 3 ans, j'ai adopté mon propre chien. Je faisais des cours en ligne à ce moment-là, alors j'étais disponible pour prendre soin d'elle, l'élever, la faire jouer et bouger et évidemment, lui donner plein d'amour. Peu de temps après avoir terminé mes études, je suis tombée en arrêt de maladie, et depuis que je suis remise, je travaille à distance, alors ma petite princesse n'a jamais manqué d'attention. Mon chien est de nature extrêmement anxieuse et dépendante affective, alors je l'ai élevée en prenant compte de ces aspects. J'ai fait beaucoup de recherches pour être en mesure de lui offrir les meilleurs soins possibles considérant son tempérament, et je me suis aussi adaptée à elle et à comment elle réagissait à certaines situations. Avant, elle était terrorisée par les inconnus et chaque fois que quelqu'un cognait à la porte de la maison ou même qu'on croisait un piéton lorsqu'on prenait une marche, elle jappait pendant plusieurs minutes sans arrêt. Après plusieurs heures de pratique et de la patience, j'ai finalement réussi à l'entraîner pour qu'elle ne jappe plus, et les inconnus ne lui créent plus autant d'anxiété qu'avant. Aussi, avant, c'était très difficile de la promener en laisse, elle était tellement stressée qu'elle ne faisait que tirer de toutes ses forces, mais je l'ai entraînée pour qu'elle marche au pied, et maintenant, c'est beaucoup plus agréable pour nous deux. Quand j'avais 12 ans, j'ai secouru un chaton abandonné alors qu'elle n'avait qu'un mois environ, alors je me suis informée pour bien m'en occuper, comment la nourrir avant son sevrage, quelles sont les conditions environnementales dans lesquelles elle doit se développer, etc. Elle est maintenant une chatte de 9 ans en pleine santé et parfaitement comblée. Depuis le début de mon adolescence, ma famille et mes amis comptent sur moi pour garder leurs animaux. J'aime profondément tous les animaux sans exception, peu importe leur tempérament, leur taille et leur âge, et prendre soin d'eux me comble de bonheur. Rencontrer de nouveaux animaux et créer un lien de confiance avec eux est un véritable privilège. Je travaille à distance, alors je suis disponible en tout temps pour m'occuper de vos compagnons! Je suis habituée de m'occuper de mon chien à temps plein, alors ma routine tourne autour des besoins des animaux. Chez moi, j'ai une grande cour arrière clôturée et une chienne toute douce et amicale pour tenir compagnie à vos chiens. Je vais promener les chiens deux fois par jour et on passe beaucoup de temps à bouger, à jouer et à se coller. Évidemment, je vais m'adapter aux habitudes et aux besoins de vos chiens pour m'assurer qu'ils soient confortables. À votre domicile, en plus de prendre soin de vos animaux, je ne pourrai pas m'empêcher de prendre soin de votre maison. Elle sera probablement plus propre à votre retour qu'à votre départ. Évidemment, ma priorité sera toujours vos animaux, mais je prendrai du temps pour m'assurer que votre maison brille à votre arrivée. Je suis également très active et je passe beaucoup de temps à l'extérieur, alors si votre chien a besoin de bouger et de jouer dehors, il va être servi! S'il est plutôt une grosse patate, je suis capable de faire ça aussi.

About: Aside from having a family dog for 15 years, I have house/pet-sitting experience working for family members and close friends since 2007. I have never met a pet I didn’t adore. I’m self-employed, which means very flexible hours. Weekends are not out of the question with notice. I always try to find ways to make scheduling work. I will make sure that your loving companions are safe, fed, walked (if applicable), loved and attended to for the entire duration of my visit.

“Our Nellie had the best time with Sam! She was well taken care of and Sam was so attentive!”
