Dog Sitting in Crompond

“I reached out just a few days before we needed a drop in and not only did she quickly respond that she was available, she came the same day to meet the boys so that we would be comfortable. She communicated ahead of the visit to check in, sent awesome pictures with the dogs and took care of everything exactly how I specified. Our dogs have to stay separated right now and I was very anxious about that being managed in our tiny home but I did not need to be! We will definitely be hiring her again. Only downside is that she doesn’t do overnights!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family members have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I’m reliable, patient, and love making pets feel comfortable and safe. I can also help with routines, exercise, and giving lots of attention and care. I am currently working a 9-5 Monday through Thursday But available Friday- Sunday at anytime. If needed I can come after work if I am available I provide care in clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I always follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, reliable, and will give your pets plenty of attention and care.

About: I've had dogs since I was a little girl and I love animals! I have experience walking dogs, pet sitting, babysitting, and housesitting. I love all animals no matter age or size. I'm currently working part-time so I am available most days including weekends! I am not available on Fridays. I am happy to help any other day. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can keep your pet on a leash as well as avoid pulling on a walk. If your pet likes parks I would gladly take them!

“1st time meeting Brendan. I was worried my dogs would be nervous with but they immediately loved him. I’m so glad they were comfortable with him, he was on the floor playing and petting them. I’m so grateful my pups will be in good hands when I’m away.”

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life and know how to make animals feel comfortable and cared for. I offer dog walking and cat boarding from my home in Yorktown Heights. Guest cats stay in their own private room with fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. For dog walking I keep things low stress, consistent, and fun. I work from home regularly so I'm around often and take every pet's routine seriously. I treat every animal like my own. I work from home frequently which means pets in my care are never left alone for long stretches. For dog walking I'm flexible on timing and can work around your schedule for morning, afternoon, or evening walks. For cat boarding, guest cats get visits multiple times a day including morning feeding, a midday check-in, and an evening wind-down with fresh food, clean water, and a scooped litter box. Weekends I'm generally very available and weekdays I can accommodate most requests with a little advance notice. I genuinely enjoy spending time with and meeting new animals so this isn't a job to me, it's a passion. I have a dog and two cats of my own so I know firsthand what animals need to feel safe and comfortable. Guest cats are kept in their own private, dedicated room completely separate from my resident pets, giving them a quiet space to decompress and settle in at their own pace. For dog walking I keep things calm and consistent, always on leash, through the safe residential streets of Yorktown Heights or local parks where my dog frequents himself. I pay close attention to each animal's personality and adjust my approach accordingly. Whether a pet is social and energetic or shy and cautious, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. My home is peaceful, clean, and genuinely pet friendly.

About: I have nearly four years of experience in a veterinary hospital as a kennel technician, where I care for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and medical needs. I am comfortable administering oral and topical medications, monitoring for signs of illness or stress, and handling a wide range of temperaments. Outside of work, I have grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have an 8 year old golden retriever of my own. I have cared for many age ranges from senior to a weeks old. I have also had other pets, including a rabbit, so I understand that every animal has unique needs and personalities. My clinical experience, combined with my lifelong love of animals, allows me to provide attentive and reliable care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra patience, I will treat them as if they were my own while you’re away. I am a full time student during the school year but on breaks I work around 3/4 days a week so I have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of your furry friends whenever you need me to! I do not have a set work schedule and can adapt relatively easily. I currently have a golden retriever who I love with all my heart. I can do whatever is necessary to care for your pet and have seen many different special instructions at my job. From medications to special diets I have seen a diverse range of special needs that I am well equipped to handle. I am experienced in senior care for pets, exotics, different energy or temperament levels, and many more areas.

About: I have had dogs since I was little and I know how to take care of puppies, middle aged dogs, and senior dogs. I enjoy playing and spending time with animals! Pet care is a daily activity. My cats need to have their timely meals, a clean litter box, snack time, nap time, cuddle time, and play time throughout the day. At home I don’t have any hazardous plants and foods within the reach of the pet and I timely attend to their needs. As a sitter I will make sure to respect your space and follow directions to keep your pet happy and taken care of!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for many years. While living in England, I helped care for a Golden Retriever, and later, in Spain, I cared for a Yorkshire Terrier. After spending over 12 wonderful years with my own Golden Retriever, Kobi, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog like family. Kobi was my adventure partner and best friend. Together, we explored hiking trails, beaches, kayaking trips, road trips from Maine to Florida, and countless daily walks. He showed me how important exercise, enrichment, routine, and companionship are for a happy dog. For over five years, I also organized dog hikes throughout Westchester County, NY, and Fairfield County, CT. These adventures gave dogs the opportunity to exercise, explore, socialize, and enjoy time outdoors in a safe and structured environment. In addition, I have professional experience working in a commercial dog daycare, where I supervised groups of up to 30 small and medium-sized dogs, as well as puppy groups of up to 7 puppies under 4 months old. This experience taught me how to read canine body language, recognize stress signals, manage group dynamics, and provide safe, attentive care. My approach combines practical dog experience with a calm, holistic mindset. I am certified in Reiki and Emotion Code energy work and believe dogs thrive when they feel safe, understood, and respected. While every visit focuses first on your dog's physical needs, I also pay close attention to their emotional well-being and comfort. I specialize in one-on-one care for puppies, seniors, and friendly family dogs that thrive with individualized attention, enrichment, companionship, and exercise. My experience is strongest with Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Doodles, Cavaliers, and similar companion breeds that benefit from individualized attention, enrichment, exercise, and companionship. Services I offer: • 60-minute drop-in visits • Dog walking • Adventure walks and hikes up to 2 hours • Puppy visits and enrichment activities • Overnight pet sitting in your home • Limited home daycare and boarding for approved dogs I believe many dogs are happier with personalized care rather than large-group environments. Whether your dog enjoys a quiet walk, a hiking adventure, puzzle games, puppy enrichment, or simply companionship while you're away, I tailor each visit to their individual needs. For home daycare and boarding, I intentionally keep things small and personal. I currently do not have a dog of my own and only accept one guest dog at a time, two dogs from the same family, or up to two compatible puppies. This allows me to provide close supervision and individualized attention. My home includes a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I live in a two-family home, and my apartment is located on the second floor, so dogs should be comfortable using stairs. A playpen is available for puppies and young dogs who benefit from additional structure and rest periods. For the safety and comfort of everyone involved, I require a meet-and-greet before accepting any new client. This allows us to make sure your dog is comfortable with me and that we are a good fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am self-employed as a bookkeeper and real estate agent, which allows me to work primarily from home and maintain a flexible schedule. While I occasionally leave the house for appointments, errands, or property showings, I am able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. This flexibility allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, companionship, and close supervision for dogs staying in my home. I provide a safe, calm, and personalized environment with plenty of individual attention. My home has a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and I live just a 5-minute walk from wooded trails for walks and adventures. Dogs have access to a comfortable sofa, toys, and puzzle games for enrichment and mental stimulation. I live in a second-floor apartment, so dogs should be comfortable using stairs. I only accept 1 dogs at a time or 2 from the same family to ensure each dog receives plenty of supervision, exercise, and companionship.

About: Hi! My name is Anjané, and I have 4 years of professional pet care experience through pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, senior pets, and high-energy dogs. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to help them feel comfortable and safe while you're away. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication throughout every booking so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving excellent care. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care is my primary focus, and I build my schedule around the pets in my care. I provide consistent feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I am committed to keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are safe and happy while they are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care requirements. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and smoke-free. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I treat every client’s home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I provide regular updates and photos throughout each stay.

About: Hi! I'm Brittany. Nice to meet you! I have around 9+ combined years of experience petsitting and a lifetime of experience around animals. I have always loved animals and started dogwalking as a small side job in 2012 in highschool. I got my real start in 2018 working full-time for a small pet-sitting business, where I learned the ropes and built the skills I still use every day. Since about 2020 I have branched off independently and have continued to be a trusted local petsitter for many clients in my area. Other than petsitting I work at a local pet store, if you know me please say hello! I value myself as trusted petsitter in my community, with many of my clients existing through referrals, past pet sitting connections, and from the pet store where I work. Several of my clients have been kind enough to leave me Rover reviews to help support my business (although the new review window has closed I am happy to provide more recent references upon request). Most of my business actively continues through those channels, but I decided to keep Rover as a way to add a little extra outreach and connect with new families. Please let me know if you would like any extra references for your comfort. I am excited for the chance to meet more furry and non furry friends. I have experience caring for all kinds of pets including super seniors, puppies and kittens, and dogs and cats with a wide variety of medical conditions requiring administration of regular meds, treatments, or insulin. I am familar with pets with strict dietary requirements or regimens (dont worry its not too complicated!). I am comfortable handling strong pullers, leash aggressive/reactive dogs and have a gentle touch to be able to bond with fearful feral cats. I also have experience with aquatic pets, small animals like chinchillas, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits and some experience with lizards and birds. I can also do water parameter testing on your aquariums if equipment is provided to me. Pets are truly my life! And I know your pets are Your life so I will always do everything to ensure your pets are loved, safe, and cared for while you are away and make sure we have lots of fun too! I work at a pet store 6 days a week from 10–6 with a midday break I use for visits. For pets needing 1 or 2 visits a day, they will happen before and/or after those hours. For overnight or 3x visit a day clients I will provide one of the visits during my lunch break. Since I work at a pet store, I can easily grab many forgotten or necessary items for your pet anytime. My schedule ensures I am usually only ever away for ~5 hours at a time. Pets I care for must be okay with some time by themselves, since my bookings are not considered 24/7 care (non -constant). If you need something more full-time, please feel free to message me and I may be able to work something out depending on the request. The schedule I keep generally works well for my clients and the majority of pet owners, but for special circumstances I can make adjustments for specific days if necessary Overnights typically include Dinner care through Breakfast care and a single return visit midday. I require all of my clients to provide up to date preferred vet information, emergency contact info and provide me prior authorization to seek emergency care for their pets. To this date I have never had to use that information for any emergencies, but I always ask for it. Other than that I will strictly follow rules requested of me, I never do any off leash without being explicitly instructed to, and will only ever provide pets snacks and food that are indicated to me to use for them. I will never take any unnecessary risks with your pet or with your home. I am always respectful with homes and try to leave them as close to how it was before or cleaner than when I arrived as possible. I will make sure plants are watered, mail is inside and check in regularly with images. I am also open to some video or voice calling with your pets if requested. I am unable to provide full home cleaning services, however, I will within reason wash requested items (such as bedding or towels), clean up after myself, and make sure pet areas and bowls are kept tidy.

About: My background in vet care and animal behavior helps me handle dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’m confident with seniors, shy pups, and dogs that need medication. I give safe walks, follow your routine closely, and keep you updated with photos every visit. I’m home from college for winter break and have a very open schedule, so pet care fits easily into my day. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings for walks, drop-ins, or longer visits. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they stay on their normal routine with consistent feeding, playtime, and walks. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I handle feeding, walks, litter boxes, playtime, and any medications exactly as instructed. I keep the home tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels safe and relaxed. I always provide photo updates and communicate after every visit.

About: After the recent loss of my sweet toy poodle Clarice, I've been excited to care for a beloved pet once again. As well as having her for years, providing the care required for a small purebred (with purebred health problems), I've earned such accolades as caring for a senior Shih Tzu through end-of-life, and earning the trust of a roommate's skittish black rescue kitty. I have some experience with larger dogs, like training hyper pitbull mixes to settle down on walks, successfully cooking dinner next to mouthy doodles, and comforting anxious poodle mixes. Currently, I own an affectionate and opiniated polydactyl Maine Coon mix... or something. We're not quite sure what part of his genes make him grow like Clifford the Big Red... Cat. I have a particular talent for crafty dogs and cats, as many of the pets I've known have been too smart for their own good (i.e. a doodle smart enough to find the steel wool so he can eat it). Additionally, my other job is seated all day, so if your dog likes walks that are more like intermittent runs, I just might be the walker for you. I'm currently working on a very flexible schedule that leaves me with afternoon and late-night availability on weekdays, and an open schedule on the weekends. I am excited to give your pet plenty of my attention and give your home care as well. It is important to me to leave your space cleaner than I found it, when it comes to pet-related debris.

About: My dog Chanel is my world so it would be a pleasure to share that same love to others. I’ve grown up around dogs between all of my family so this is a joy to experience. I currently work day shifts and very loyal to my schedule of care with my dog at home. It would be no burden or issue at all to care for others 4 legged friends. The same care I provide to my own as if she was my daughter is the same care I’d give to others pets. Any dog in my care is my family.
