Pet Sitting in Chenango Forks

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I love animals of all kinds and as a pet owner know how important pets are to the family and how stressful it can be when being away from them! I work remotely full time 7:30-3:00pm. I have time for short breaks/walks for pets during working hours and evenings after work for lots of play time, walks, etc. I will follow your schedule and routines as you would if you were home with your pets to the best of my ability. I like to know what your typical schedule and pets needs are.

“Celia is an absolute gem! She took such great care of Howie, giving him lots of special attention. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and she’s just so sweet with them. She took lots of pictures and real time updates throughout her visits so I never had to worry. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Maddy did an outstanding job with my kitties, Samoa is usually very shy until she gets to know you, Samoa even ignored her treats at first and just wanted Maddy's full attention! ;-) Charlie and Samoa were very well taken care of while I was away.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I've raised dogs from puppies providing training and teaching obedience. Also providing assistance to senior animals. I currently work full time, 4 days a week (6am-5pm) Tues-Fri. I have a very flexible schedule that will allow for local visits and walks during working hours in the Owego area. Outside of working hours I am available in the 15mi radius around Johnson City. Within working hours or near, I am available in the 15mi radius around Owego. I offer one on one attention to your animal providing meals, water and bathroom breaks. Also including plenty of play time, exercise, and local hikes.

“My dog can be a little overwhelming to new people (big and a barker) but Hannah was great! She sent me a great update with lots of pictures and he had a great time with her.”

“Great drop ins from Tiffany! Great pics and communication.”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always been part of my daily routine. I take care of my own dog at home, including walks, feeding, and daily attention. When I’m home from college my extended family also relies on me to watch and care for their dogs when needed. I am home from college between May and August and available any day of the week. I am flexible with scheduling, including last minute requests, and can stay with your pet for extended periods if needed. I will only be providing services in your home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and playtime, to make sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and helped train them when they were puppies. I have 1 dog and a cat right now, and love playing with, walking them, and cuddling. I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years and as a pet groomer for under 1 year, and I also earned my Dog Training Certification through Animal Behavior College. I adore pets and always have, and I strive to make any pets day the best with whatever they need! I currently go to school and work part-time. Working part time allows me to have more time to play with your dogs. I am able to spend time with your pups on Mondays and Wednesdays anytime 12pm or after. Along with Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at any time! The first thing I will always do with your pups is let them get to know me by letting them set the course of our greeting, if they are shy we go slower. Whatever the dog needs is my number one priority along with keeping the Pet Parent informed. I will always be attentive when watching your pup in your home, and if there is medication that needs to be administered I can do so properly with the exception of needles/shots.

“Kari did a wonderful job taking care of my cat, Marlo while I was away for a month. She left everything tidy so when I returned I didn’t have any cleanup to do. I really appreciated that. I highly recommend her.”

Tammy T.

“Charlene was a great sitter and was very pleased with her care if my pets. I would defiantly use her again.”

Richard H.

“Amy was amazing. We had a last minute need for someone to watch our older dog and cat for a week and she didn't hesitate. She took great care of our furry family members. She was super responsive to messages and went above and beyond with walks, lots of great pictures, and updates. We wouldn't hesitate to use her services again in the future or recommend her to others. Thanks Amy!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting alone for about 8 years now! Friends, neighbors, and other folks have relied on me to feed and walk their pets as well as house sit. I’ve worked with cats, dogs, almost all domestic farm species, amphibians, reptiles, and fish. I’ve just graduated UVM with an Animal Science degree, where I’ve taken helpful classes such as Intro To Exotic Pet Care class and Canine Behavior where I trained local shelter dogs. Through my studies, I’ve learned about nutrition, anatomy, welfare, husbandry, and diseases/ailments for many species. I’ve worked with a lot of senior animals who have a variety of backgrounds at a farm sanctuary, so I’m comfortable working with pets with special needs. I’ve also been working as an ICH Tech at an equine clinic so I am comfortable with medications such as injections as well. I love talking about my experience and am happy to answer any questions people may have! I love going for walks and hiking! The outdoors are so beautiful and even more lovely when you get to share them with a pet. Early morning walks are my personal favorite. Pet visits also work well in my schedule. I don't mind stopping by to let a pet out, feed, clean, and provide enrichment. I love reading and am happy to hang out with pets outside while I do so. Clear communication and meeting the needs of the client are the most important pieces to pet care to me. I like to take notes about expectations and routines, such as feeding or play time, that way I can provide pets with the most consistency and familiarity I can. I like to update folks about their pets by sending photos and messages. And I keep my phone nearby with notifications on throughout my time so that I am available if folks have any questions, concerns, or are just missing their pet and would like a picture!

“Great with all 3 of my frenchies who can be a handful!! Left great messages after each visit with lots of details on her time with them. And included multiple photos”
