About: I’ve had animals from childhood and love learning about all of their special requirements so that they thrive and are happy. I’ve received multiple trainings in pet first aid and never leave the house without being prepared. I’m also a founding member of my county’s animal response team and have received all of the federal emergency training that goes along with that. I take continuing education classes and work with my dogs every day in cooperative care and have successfully taught them, through gentle means, to accept things like nail trims and teeth brushing - a bit of a passion of mine. I have room in my schedule morning, lunch, and evening walks and feeding. I have limited space to take your dog to my home for boarding. I have plenty of property but would keep your dog on a leash when going outside. I have two dogs who are very dog friendly and make friends easily. They just love to chase the ball and love life. I am extremely conscientious; my dogs are very well cared for. I bring that same level of care to everything that I do.

“Elisha is so good with our senior citizen pup who does not like to do much when the weather isn’t to her liking. Elisha still coaxes her out for the necessities then plays with her to keep her mentally stimulated. We are so grateful to have Elisha care for our older dog when we are having our busy days and cannot.”

About: Hi, I’m Abigail! I recently moved back to the Hudson Valley to develop my career in the environmental field. I’m currently working part-time at a native plant nursery. When I'm not spending time nature and with plants, I love caring for animals! Growing up with animals in my household ranging from cats to dogs (to even turtles and birds) has given me an affinity to not just adore all types of animals, but has given me the proper skills to understand the responsibility of caring for an animal. I understand that all animals are unique in what makes them feel comfortable and loved and will always do what is best to ensure the safety and comfortability of your pet! For dogs: - A meet and greet would be a great idea beforehand to get to know both you and your dog, so I can provide the best service possible! - I love being outdoors as much as I can, so I plan to take your dog for long walks as much as I can! - As for potty breaks, I think three times a day is the absolute minimum. Once in the morning, afternoon, and before bedtime. However, if I am not working, I can take them out as much as you/they desire! - Maintaining your pets feeding routine is very important to and I take special care to be considerate of any special dietary care you dog needs. - Lastly, I know it can be hard for some animals to be separated from their loved ones. I will make sure they are feeling loved while they are under my care. For cats: - I currently care for an orange tabby rescue, named Hugo, who can be a bit needy, (although him being special only makes me love him more!), so I understand that cats can require a lot of attention and love, and I will ensure to give them plenty while they are under my care. - Cleanliness is very important when caring for cats, as the owner and of a cat, I know my cat can get upset if his litter box is not kept in pristine condition, and when caring for your cat I will do the same! - Diet is just as important for animals as it is for humans. Feeding your pet according to their needs is something I will take seriously. I work part time, Wed - Sat, however I can be pretty flexible to accommodate your schedule. If I am unable to meet the needs requested I will be sure to give as much notice as possible. In a clients home, I like to keep things tidy and work within the boundaries discussed with the client. Cleanliness is important to me and I appreciate staying in homes that are kept in generally good condition. I try to mirror the animal's usual routine in a home and prioritize everyone’s comfortability.

About: I’ve owned and cared for a variety of pets. Cats, dogs, reptiles and beyond! I’ve been a healthcare worker since the age of 17 and have been a nurse for over 10 years. As the owner of five dogs and two cats presently, I can assure that your pet(s) would be cared for with the same enthusiasm, compassion, and love as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible and depending on services required, so long as I am able to provide appropriate notice to my boss, can be rearranged. Looking to fill it with many canine/feline companions! I’ve dedicated many years to providing compassionate care to humans and now I’d like to give my compassion to those who love unconditionally. The cats have free rein of the house. Litter scooped daily and there’s always time.. for laser and play time! Four dogs whom are all on and off leash trained. Crate trained as well as house broken. All up to date on shots. If the situation allows, the dogs always come on just about every adventure apart from work. My partner trains horses so they are always enjoying running the vast paddocks offered at farms and playing with all of the horses and dog friends! Always stocked up on water with travel bowls and plenty of toys, we always have a blast wherever we go! Ps. They also love water! Fed two meals per day and of course bones and treats!

“Nancy was great with my dogs. She came to meet them earlier in the day before she came to walk and feed them which was very helpful!! She is a true dog lover and would definitely recommend her.”

About: Hello! My name is Arielle 🤗 I love animals of all sizes and species, but I have had the most experience with dogs. I have two dogs of my own who I adore, and I also train hounds locally. Under my care, your pet will feel loved and cared for like my own. I am very attentive to the details, along with being able to work well under pressure if there is a situation that needs it. More than that, I love all animals and will make sure your pet feels safe and loved.☀️❤️ I am currently living at home with my parents for the summer which gives me a lot of leniency with my time and schedule. I have access to a car in which I can get someplace I need to with short notice. I am not available on weekends as much since I do have work, but weekdays I will give my undivided time and energy to your pets! I care for my clients pets in their homes as if they are my own, but adjusting it based on their specific needs and qualities.

I am able to drop in and/or stay the night depending on the service needed.

About: My passion for animals is more than just a sentiment—it stems from a deep-rooted love and understanding of their diverse natures. Over the years, I’ve honed an intuitive ability to connect with each pet’s unique personality, ensuring they’re always in compassionate hands. Boasting 15 years of professional dog care experience, my expertise encompasses grooming, training, and overnight care. This journey has seen me earn the trust of countless pet owners across states—from Georgia and Pennsylvania to NY—testifying to the consistency and quality of care I deliver. My commitment is unwavering. Each dog and cat under my care receives dedicated attention, tailored to their individual needs and temperaments. This dedication is coupled with my belief in continuous growth, ensuring I’m always up-to-date with the best practices in pet care. I have my own handyman business and am trying to transition to pet care as a main source of income. That being said I have a lot of availability at the moment. I live in a three story house with a yard and doggy door. Typically most dogs spend their time on the first floor (dog floor) but the option is open to venture to the other floors so long as they aren’t marking in the house.
