“Rave review here for Sarah! Very clear how much she loves dogs, and how responsible and attentive she is. So happy to have found her!”


“Annie seems very conscientious and got along great with my dog. I appreciate her attention to detail regarding my dogs routine. I will use her services again. Thank you.”

About: I have always loved animals and growing up, I lived with cats. I have owned a variety of pets such as hamsters, fish, hermit crabs and taken care of my neighbors' dogs. I take pride in the level of excellent care of my pets (even as a child!) and always research the best food, practices, toys and other aspects of their care so they are living their best life with me. I was always a responsible child growing up and took pet parenting quite seriously. I was attached to all my pets and would prioritize their needs as a good pet owner. Growing up, I would also pet sit my neighbors' dogs by playing with them, feeding them and cleaning up after them. As a fitness enthusiast, I love taking dogs for walks! I currently work from home during the week and am flexible with timing for visits. I am available on weekends as well as holidays as long as I am made aware ahead of time. I appreciate any timing flexibility for visits when considering working with me since I do have other responsibilities. If you know me personally, you would know I am a huge animal lover and am obsessed with my cats. They mean the world to me and as someone who loves her cats as her family, I will treat your fur baby with the utmost respect, love and best care possible. I understand entrusting someone else to care for your fur baby is a big responsibility and I would be honored to do that for you. I will write down all of your instructions, pay close attention to details of your pets' specific needs, tend to their needs during their visit, give them love, clean up after them, feed them, and will try to keep your pets' routines as closely as possible so it is smooth and stress free for them. I know what it is like to go on vacation and how disruptive it can be for your pet. As owners, we worry about their wellbeing and that is a top concern for me as a pet sitter. I am here to comfort, soothe and make your absence less uncomfortable for them. As a dog walker, I will pay the utmost attention to my surroundings, clean up after them and keep them safe away from any potential threats. I take this role quite seriously as your pet is your loved one and I would want mine to be treated in the same manner.

“It’s always good to count with someone who is punctual and above all that takes a great care of my dog! If there were 10 stars I would give him 15. Great and reliable service and he absolutely love animals.”


About: I was on a farm most of my life, I’ve cared for many types of animals. I love animals and if you need someone to stop by and care for yours I would like to be considered to help out I work from home and my job is very flexible I can stop by to visit your pet and feed and or walk them. Like to meet them I have a little dog and a cat. I can only walk dogs on a leash at my home. I am more than willing to come take your pets out at your home and water and feed them.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes as naturally to me as breathing. I’ve grown up with dogs since I was a kid and currently have two of my own—both well-behaved and trained beyond just basic obedience, including fun tricks to keep them engaged. My full-time job keeps me surrounded by dogs who come in and out of the office. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, puppy care and canine nutrition, ensuring every pup in my care gets the best possible attention. When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me hiking with my dogs or planning our next dog-friendly adventure. I don’t have human kids, but my dogs are my world, and I’ll treat yours like family too! I currently have a full time job that I work 4 days a week so I’m available 3 days a week - Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. I will abide by the owners preference on letting their dog out as I understand everyone has their own way of handling this. If their yard is fenced and a simple open the door and go - that’s a plus but more than happy to put the leash on and go around!

About: Attentive, responsible & fun pet caretaker who will treat your dog or cat like it was my own. With first hand experience taking care of my pets over the years, I understand how important it is for animals to feel safe, loved. & well-cared for.

Whether it’s a dog who enjoys long walks and plenty of treats, or a cat who needs calm and attentive care, I will provide this and more. With experience caring for my own dogs and cats, I understand how to meet your pets unique needs so they feel safe happy, well-loved while you are away. I have two levels and can separate your pets or have them join my friendly rescue dog Gary! Cats can join my cats or be separated. I can take your dog on plenty of walks and if you would like to the local dog park to play. Cats get special TLC!

About: I have sat dogs of all sizes, cats, bunnies and ferrets. I can also feed anyone’s fish if needed. Animals love is unconditional. And they deserve that love back. Which I always give to them. My schedule is open. I just left my job to experience new journeys in life. This is one of the journeys I want to take because of my love for animals. I am a graduate from Rutgers University of New Brunswick. I care for pets with love. I am very safe with animals. I follow directions thoroughly. I am a clean and organized person as well. If an animal needs to be cleaned up after or crated before I leave then that will be done. Any special requests I accept. Some clients have special ways to make their animal food which I can accommodate to. I am licensed in security so the animals and house will always be in good hands.

“Vanessa has walked our crazy golden retriever twice now, and she is every bit as energetic as he is! When she came to the door, Cooper recognized her immediately and wiggled and squirmed with happiness. I highly recommend Vanessa and would give more stars if I could!”


“Samantha is always reliable and is amazing with our puppy Sabrina. We are lucky to have her help with walking and visiting, rain or shine, hot weather or cold.”


About: Aside from having a minimum of 2 dogs in my house my whole life, I became a dog foster for a shelter near my school for 3 years. With that came valued experience with various breeds and very different personality types. I am patient with nervous dogs and try to make them the most comfortable I can and can also meet the energy level of very hyper and playful pups. From fostering I found my sweet Maisy, who I was lucky enough to love for 7 years and gave me more joy than I could have imagined. I am comfortable with multiple dogs at once as well, as I mentioned before I am used to always having at least two in the family but the more the merrier! My availability can fluctuate week to week but I will always try my best to work with whatever availability needed by you. I would love the opportunity to help you out with your four legged family members! I am currently pursuing a Masters degree and do other remote work so my schedule/availability is always changing however, still usually very flexible and am willing to work around your needs. I try to care for your animals in the same way and with as much love as you do! Their happiness and safety are my top priority.

About: Growing up with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. After our beloved family dog passed away, I channeled my love for dogs into caring for others in my neighborhood, providing both walking and boarding services. I recently left the day care industry to focus on my health. Therefore, I'm available all days and evenings for afternoon walks or to provide boarding when you're on vacations. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment that is tailored to you and your pet's needs and routine. I enjoy play time and taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood.

About: Experience with short-term and extended stays, including feeding, medication administration, and overnight supervision. Comfortable handling everything from small lap dogs to large and active working breeds. Supported leash training, crate training, and reinforcement of basic commands like sit, stay, and come. Provided gentle, attentive care to pets with arthritis, anxiety, or dietary restrictions. As someone who currently works from home, I’m able to offer flexible scheduling and personalized attention for your pets. Whether your dog needs mid-day potty breaks, your cat wants company while you're away, or you need overnight care—I’ve got you covered! Respect the pets routine, sticking to feeding schedules, walks and potty breaks. Maintaining their sleeping routine. Providing daily updates including photos and videos. Treating the clients home with care and professionalism.

Most importantly, deeply passionate about all animals. I'm a full-time registered nurse. I work 3 days a week. I have four days to myself.

I also have a nice size yard for outdoor play with any pet. I own a car and can drive to your pet as well.

About: I love working with pets because they all have such different personalities. What makes working with pets more fun is establishing trust with them so that I can provide the best care for them. I have loved animals since I was a little girl and am furthering my career by studying Zoology at SUNY Oswego. I am currently a student looking for part-time work through the summer. I am looking for a job where i can provide a safe and trustworthy environment with both pets and their owners. I have cared for my own dog whose name is Zoey. I bathe her, brush her, take her outside, play with her, train her, and show her unconditional love. I also have pet sit for family and friends whenever they needed in the past few years.

About: Hi. I am a retired public school teacher. Tutoring fishing and traveling takes up a large chunk of my time now but I still have time to hang with the hounds. I absolutely love dogs and have been a multiple dog owner since I was a kid (I'm now in my 50's). I am also the “go to dog watcher/walker” when family and friends are away and hopefully can be for your dog at some time as well. Once I retire I plan on having even greater flexibility and more scheduling for my dog friends and their owners. Currently I have the summer off and have availability Mon through Sunday, mornings, afternoons and evenngs.Once the school year begins again at the end of August I will still be available late afternoons and evenings with boarding options Fri and Sat nights only. I am available for walking, watching and for those interested, boarding at our home. We presently have two dogs, both rescues ( a chihuahua and a whippet hybrid) and a fully fenced in backyard (70’ x 100’) that is very dog friendly and dog secure for those who need an overnight or a doggy day care option. Your dogs will be treated like our own. With love and respect. Our dogs have always been a part of our family and that level of love and care will be extended to any dog I am trusted to care for.

About: Growing up and into adulthood I have owned a multitude of pets including guinea pigs, turtles, hamsters, fish, frogs, cats, and dogs. I love all animals and understand they are family. I currently work full time but from home which allows me the flexibility to pet sit during the day. I also have availability on the weekends. I currently take care of my own cats which include playing with them, feeding them, changing the litter box, lots of cuddles, and enrichment activities. I also watch friends and families dogs.

Grace was excellent! She and Avery were fast friends and she took our girl on a nice long walk. We love that she also has dogs at home and knows how to care for them.

I am so happy that Annie is in our lives!! I have a little less to worry about when I'm off on a crazy busy day knowing Annie will be there with Winnie while I'm away. I can tell from the pictures Annie sends that Winnie is just crazy in love with her. I entirely totally trust Annie to care for Winnie and to keep her safe and happy.
