Dog Walking Coxsackie

About: I love both dogs and cats and have been able to provide in home sitting services going back to 2020! I’m in the process of bringing home my own puppy, but in the meantime I would love to meet yours. I work full time remotely and have a flexible schedule during the day for meals, playtime and walks. I’m happy to adjust to your pets schedule completely for the entire duration of my visit. In my client’s home, I have complete respect for all rules and preferences related to your dog’s routine! My goal is to provide the most continuous care I possibly can for them while you are away. For cats, I’m extremely respectful of their space as needed, but can also cuddle and play with the ones who love it. For puppies and younger dogs, I’m knowledgeable in training best practices (always gentle, force free and positive reinforcement based) and can encourage good behaviors that you’re already working on.

“I felt very comfortable leaving my girls in Jessy's care. I trusted Jessy to take good care of them and she did!”

“We had such a great experience with Candice! She came to meet my dog before the walk so she could get comfy with her. They ended up spending a lot of time together and I got updates along the way, it felt great being away knowing the my dog was being taken of! Will definitely book again :)”

About: Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile. I am a lifelong dog-lover and I just go gaga for descendents of wolves of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. My mother actually says that my first word as a baby was "dog", so I think it is simply fate that I am here today. I grew up with a magical Golden Retriever named Chessie and a spunky wire-haired Dachshund named Emma. I loved playing fetch with Chessie in the backyard, grooming Emma and trying to tame her spikey fur, and walking them together all around my hometown. As an adult, friends and family trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their dogs. And later, I was lucky enough to adopt a very special 7-year old mini-Australian Shepherd named Lexi who had been surrendered by her previous owner. Lexi had intense separation anxiety and some health issues with her kidneys, so after all that she had been through, it was so wonderful and rewarding to love and care for Lexi and watch her regain her confidence and trust in people and thrive. Being her dog-mom was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life and I miss her so much. As your pup's new friend, it is my mission to give them that same level of attention, care, and admiration. Dogs have infinite space for love and joy and we have so much to learn from them, so I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am a work-from-home creative type so I have lots of time and space in my schedule to take care of your pup! I am available for walks, playdates, and drop-ins, Monday through Friday 8am - 6pm and I also offer boarding. I live in a large first floor two-bedroom apartment that's right next door to my building's dog park. Enriching town parks and trails are super close, along with a community teeming with all sorts of dog-lovers and dogs. My home is a warm and welcoming spot for your dog's vacay!

“Wonderful, accommodating, and great with my normally shy poodle! Will be booking again. Thank you so much 💕”

About: I have loved and cared for animals my whole life. I especially love small dogs and understand that they need the same level of play and mental stimulation as all dogs. I have cared for cats, small animals, and chickens. I am a self employed artist with a flexible schedule. I take my own small dogs out to the local dog park every morning. I enjoy taking dogs out for walks in the nature areas and parks. I have two large fenced gardens at my home and allow my dogs to enjoy off leash time there. I understand that importance of keeping dogs on leash and cats indoors.

“Was in a last minute mind and Laura came to the rescue. She took the best care of my babies. Fully kept me updated how they dogs were doing and sent pictures. The dogs had a great time with Laura! I was so relieved to see how happy they were in all the photos. When I got home they were very calm and relaxing. They got a lot of exercise! Would highly recommend Laura!”

“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: Hi my name is Jessica and I live with my partner Patrick and our two dogs Chickie and Gracie. I have always had pets growing up and have cared for my own dogs for the past 16 years. I have experience with taking care of puppies, elderly and reactive dogs. Currently, I'm freelancing, so I'm mostly home with a flexible schedule. I would love to care for your dog or cat while you’re away!

“Elizabeth is professional, warm, communicative and reliable! She made time to walk my dog even though she was busy. I’ve already recommended her to friends!”

“Edgardo is a wonderful walker - our dog Nico loves him and he is very reliable and communicative. Highly recommend :)”

About: If your dog is a rescue who's still figuring out the world, or just a creature of habit who thrives on routine — that's exactly who I do this for. I work from home, so I'm able to follow their schedule: same walks, same feeding times, same special treats. The only thing different about your dog's week is which human is holding the leash (and cuddling on the couch). Send me a message to set up a meet-and-greet — I'd love to hear all about your pet. Working from home means your dog has company during the day, not just a check-in at mealtimes. I build my schedule around the pets I'm caring for, so your dog's feeding times, walks, and favorite spots on the couch all stay as consistent as possible. The goal is for your dog to feel like not much has changed. When we're outside, your dog has my full attention. I skip dog parks to avoid the risks of unpredictable dogs, illness, or overstimulation. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, so your dog always gets my undivided focus. During the warmer months, I stay on top of tick checks and heat management to keep your dog safe and comfortable. I'm comfortable administering oral medications and I closely monitor food intake and potty patterns so I can flag anything unusual.

“Amy is wonderful. She was able to accommodate a meet and greet on short notice. She always sends the best photos. Astor is lucky to have her.”

About: I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting for cats or dogs, and I’m happy to provide daily exercise, playtime, feeding, and medication support as needed. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to fit their needs and personality. I grew up with mid-size dogs and frequently watched smaller dogs for family friends in Pittsburgh. After moving upstate, I became a devoted cat dad to my black cat, Lola, for four years. Since then, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, including seniors with specific feeding and medication schedules. I'm attentive and responsive to every animal’s unique rhythm. I currently work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to drop in or house-sit for quality time with your pets during the day. I enjoy staying active and love being outdoors—so your dog will always get a good walk (and a happy walking buddy!). For overnight stays, I treat every home and pet with the respect and care I’d want for my own. I pride myself on being responsible, respectful, and kind—treating every home and animal as if my own. As a freelancer who works remotely, I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m also available for house sitting and overnights provided there's stable wifi. I am a trustworthy house sitter/ walker who priotizes clear communication on expectations and house standards. I do not offer pet care from my own home.

“Jessica was fantastic! She took great care of our dog and was conscientious, prompt and communicative. We will happily ask her to take care of Maddox in the future. Thanks Jessica!”

My care for your dog will not change regarding the location. I care for each dog the same way I have cared for my dogs in the past.

“Patrick walked our dogs while we were in town for a wedding. He was great, communicative, and sent us photos. Highly recommend!”
