About: I'm very good at training dogs. I have a lot of patience with dogs. I talk dog. Dogs like me and I like them. I like walking dogs as my exercise. I have had and trained many dogs since I was twenty. I care about your dog as much as you. I have two dogs and one of the most important things when I travel is who will take care of my dogs. I want someone who loves them as much as I do and that's what will happen with your dog when it stays with me, lots of love and attention. I feed them on regular schedules and take them for walks on a regular schedule also. I will make sure that they have played, peed, pooped and have plenty of water. I’m available for time to watch dogs. I just moved to the area and I’m working at home and if that changes I’ll let you know but for the most part I can watch dogs 24 seven I don’t have dogs right now, so I do Rover to get my dog to fix. Any size dog is fine I have 8 acres for them to play and if you have a water dog I have a low creek to play in
“Just moved to the area and needed someone to help with my aging senior 100 pound dog. Krista was receptive to all my crazy instructions and compassionate to the situation. She has been very quick to respond to my requests and have peace of mind she is in good hands. Highly recommend her.”
“Bosco loves Gil and is always well taken care of.”
“Anastasia was so great with our dog. She has a great demeanor around him and he was immediately comfortable around her! We would highly recommend her services!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for them. While I’ve primarily worked with horses and cows, I’ve also spent years around dogs and cats. We have our own rescue pup at home, and I’ve helped care for everything from small lap dogs to German Shepherds. There’s always been a family or friends dog around, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I currently have two side jobs that I have full control over, so I’m able to be flexible and available any time of day or week to care for your pet. Whether it’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evenings, I can adjust my schedule to meet your needs! When I’m caring for pets in their home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow any instructions you leave closely - whether it’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or giving medications. I respect your home, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure your pets get lots of love and attention while you’re away. I know how important it is to feel confident your pets and your space are in good hands!
“Great job with a shy dog. Got her to walk and play. Thank you, excellent job!”
About: Hi! I just started doing this again FT in July & I’m excited to help care for your little babes. Whether it’s drop-in visits or walks, boarding here or house-sitting, you can feel relieved that your home and family will be in the kindest of hands. Common human courtesy like bringing in your mail & watering your plants are included. 😊 I’ve been a lover of animals since I was born, riding horses and having even exotic pets; these days, I help out with a wildlife rehabber, I volunteer & have fostered with a local animal shelter, and in my own pet-parenting experience, I know about veterinary meds & the different ways of administering them, etc. My husband care for our cats if I need to house-sit, otherwise, this is my full-time gig lately and I absolutely love it! It’s my calling. 🥰 I leave a place better than I found it; I am highly polite and respectful and would never disrespect a client’s home; I treat it like I’m a guest on my best behavior of course!
About: Hi I’m Natalie! I love animals and have grown up caring for them my whole life. I’ve had a range of animal care experience from mice to sea turtles and everything in between. I currently have two dogs and two cats and a betta fish. I have experience with large dogs like my Saint Bernard boxer mix and small dogs like my frenchie. I’ve also had experience caring for an elderly dog the past feed years administering medication frequently and cleaning her ears. I also volunteered for three years at an animal clinic where I also interned granting me more animal care qualities! I usually let my dogs out in the mornings for breakfast and feed them and then again at night. I also have given them baths and groomed them regularly. I even have had to give my older dog medicine regularly throughout the day. I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a dog run that I will use and also have two of my own dogs to play with them.
About: Who better than a veterinarian to take care of your best buddies while you're away? I am a new DVM graduate, and am happy to take care of your pets, no matter how old or young, especially those with special needs! I am certified in dog/cat CPR, and am comfortable providing any care needed. *Please note*: My providing pet sitting/dog walking/pet care services does NOT constitute a VCPR, and I cannot provide medical advice unless a VCPR is explicitly established in accordance with NY State Law* I prefer to stay in the client's home especially for dogs as this is generally much more comfortable for the dog to stay in their own environment. For overnight stays, I like to meet the dogs beforehand with owners present. This way they are assured it is okay to have me in their space for staying with them.

“Donavan is an excellent dog walker. He walked my 13 year olds dog twice a day for over a week and he was very considerate of her. He paid attention to her weaker back legs and adjusted the walks to suit her. He was reliable, flexible and he quick to respond to communications. I highly recommend him and will book him again in the future.”

About: Hi! I have taken care of my friend’s dogs for 8 years, while they’re out of town or just at work, from puppies to adults, and it’s a lot of fun! I work full time with a food delivery service, but I’m all over town all day and can be super flexible on when I need to take breaks As far as safety goes, I always walk dogs on a leash, and treat them with the same love and care as if they’re my own.

I will be able to leave and check on your pups or even bring them with me to work we have plenty of rooms and cages if they couldn’t play with the other pups. I do bring my cat to work with me so if cats are dog friendly they would be able to come too I have very well trained dogs so they stay in the yard, I do stand outside and watch them.

About: For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for caring for animals. I have had animals my entire life including dogs, cats and other small animals. I now have 4 years experience working professionally with dogs. I have worked at 2 different dog daycares. The first was training based where I got experience training basic obedience on top of having continued education in dog behavior and dog body language. The second daycare also did boarding which gave me even more experience in dog handling, preparing food, administering medication and taking care of up to 50 dogs at a time. Unfortunately I am only able to do pet sitting and dog walking a few days a week, however most of those days would be weekends Dogs need lots of exercise and enrichment, I’d love to help you with that! Either by a walk through town on a nice day or some enrichment and playtime at your home!
“Melessa is very reliable and has been real patient with my anxious dog. She’s always on time and walked Avie for 2 weeks, rain or shine. She made sure Avie wore his coat/raincoat when it’s cold or raining out. I appreciate you, Melessa! Highly recommend!”

“John has had pets his whole life. Those pets have been lucky enough to live with a person who so genuinely cares about animals. (Especially dogs!) He is always sharing pictures with his dogs on walks and when having fun at home as well. John truly truly cares for dogs and there is no one else I would trust my pet with as much as I would with John!”
Monique J.
“Monique is WONDERFUL! I actually met her at her job, Petland. I was shopping for a new collar and some toys for my boxer mix and I was going on about how I was trying to find someone to watch him for the weekend while I went away on business, and she mentioned that she actually did dog sitting and would love to do it. The next day I met with her and my little Billy got to see her house and meet her dogs, everyone immediately hit it off amd it was set! She sent me LOADS of pictures and videos of Billy having fun with her and her dogs, even ahowing me that she took him to the pool. It really helped reassure me, especially since this is the first time spending the weekend away from him. She really is the greatest and her love for dogs is evident.”
