Cat Sitting in Cherry Plain

“Deborah was lovely on an initial visit with my shy cat - she spoke warmly to our Ash, but didn't try to force contact, and let our shy girl wander off. Given Deborah's background and familiarity with shy cats, I feel very comfortable leaving our girl in her hands while we're out of town. I feel confident that Ash will warm up to her as Deborah visits, and feel comfortable that Deborah will be patient and present for our kitty in whatever form she needs.”

“It was really important for us to find a sitter who could take care of our newly diabetic cat and McKenna was so great. Fang and our other cats seemed very happy when we got back and we received pictures and updates every time she visited which is always makes me feel so much better. We will rebook McKenna anytime!!”

“Suzanne was great! Despite the cold and icy weather She visited my house once a day to feed my two cats and exchange the water for my chickens. She sent me multiple photos each day which was very reassuring while I was away. I would recommend Suzanne!”

“Alyson stopped in each day to feed and spend a little time with our 4 month old cat, Luna. As new cat owners, we were very apprehensive leaving someone to take care of her. Alyson was the perfect choice and we will definitely be using her again!!”

“Iris was very reliable and kept our social cat company twice a day while my partner and I were away. She accommodated all of our needs for feeding (including setting a timer for late night and early morning wet food), litter, and play time, and even helped manage the temperature in our apartment during the heat. Our cat was comfortable and well cared for.”

“Aubrey took great care of my 3 cats while I was away for a week. I'll certainly turn to her first the next time I need some catsitting.”

About: My experience in pet care began during my childhood on my grandparents’ farm, where I was surrounded by a wide variety of animals every day. From an early age, I learned the importance of responsibility, compassion, and attentive care. I gained hands-on experience feeding, grooming, and nurturing animals of all kinds—including dogs, cats, livestock, and small animals—each with their own unique needs and personalities. More than just daily routines, I developed strong, loving bonds with the animals I cared for, treating them as family. That foundation shaped my deep understanding of animal behavior and my commitment to providing patient, personalized, and reliable care for every pet I work with. I bring a deep love and understanding of dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From playful pups to sweet seniors, I tailor each walk to fit their needs. I prioritize safety, communication, and fun—always engaging with your dog and even teaching basic cues like sit, stay, and wait during our adventures. I’m passionate about nature and I believe dogs thrive when they can safely explore their environment —sniffing the breeze, feeling the grass under their paws, and soaking up the world around them. I’m dependable, energetic, and treat every dog like my own. Whether it’s a gentle stroll or a playful outing, your pup will be in great hands and have a tail-wagging good time! Dog walking fits perfectly into my current routine. I’m a part-time healthcare worker with a consistent schedule, working from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Outside of those hours, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability and plenty of time to dedicate to your pup. I truly enjoy incorporating walks into my day—they keep me active, bring me joy, and let me connect with more wonderful dogs. Your dog will receive dependable, loving care from someone who’s already made this a part of daily life. Safety, trust, and a positive environment are at the heart of every walk I take. I prioritize clean, open, and dog-friendly spaces—like the Rail-Trail, local parks, and secure walking paths—where pups can enjoy fresh air and nature safely. I always use leash control, stay highly observant of their behavior, and make sure every walk is calm, comfortable, and secure. Whether we’re exploring a quiet trail or playing at a safe dog park, your dog’s well-being is my top priority. You can trust that your pup is in caring, capable, and experienced hands every step of the way.

About: I’m a volunteer for Guiding Eyes for the Blind and help train service animals. I’ve worked with all ages of dogs and get to know each of them for who they really are. I’ve worked with 8 week old puppies and 10 year old dogs too! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty time to walk and watch over pups! I’m pretty active so I love to go on adventures and play around! I have a semi fenced in yard and 3 playful dogs! My personal pets aren’t crated but I have plenty of experience housing pups that are! I have a spacious backyard for lots of running and playing too!

About: Hi there! I’m a full-time student at Hudson Valley Community College, working toward my degree in Diagnostic Radiology. When I’m not studying, I love staying active—going on runs, walks, hikes, and spending time at the beach. If your dog is high-energy and loves to run, we’ll be a perfect match! I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities since I was 12—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets, have experience with basic training, and can administer medication when needed. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet in my care like family. I’d be happy to help care for yours! I currently work part-time and in school full time in the Fall and Spring, which gives me lots of flexibility to care for your pets! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. Whether it’s long walks, fun playtime, or cozy cuddles, I make sure your pet feels happy, loved, and well-cared for even when you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in dog park at my apartment. I do have a cat at home but if your pet prefers quiet time or doesn’t like cats, I can create a calm and separate space just for them. I’m comfortable crating when needed and will always follow your instructions to ensure your pet feels secure and cared for in my home.
