About: Since I was 10 years old, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their dog(s). I've stayed overnight at their houses to provide the requested care as well as visits during the day. Additionally I’ve hosted pet(s) overnight. Currently I am working part-time and step out for about 4 hours for my shift then return home to study. My fiancé and I live together in our apartment and he helps provide pet care. Our weekends are typically open with an occasional event. I am an active person. I enjoy running, hiking, and long walks to release energy, especially with a canine campion. I've also brought dogs to local dog parks. I enjoy playing with dogs and even lounging at the house with them. At my apartment, the shared backyard has a fence and an outdoor lead as well.

“Alexis did an amazing job with our dog, Duke. She took great care of him, giving him plenty of exercise and feeding him while we were away. We will definitely use Alexis in the future!”

About: You like it, I love it. You name it (dogs, cats, horses, hamsters), I watch it. Book with me and I’ll take great care of your furry friends :) I’m pretty flexible timing wise so forming my schedule around your pet’s should be easy. Just let me know what a typical day looks like for them and we can go from there. Be sure to communicate with me what your pet’s requirements are in regards to walks, potty breaks, medications, etc. I’d also like to know what your pet’s temperament/social behavior is like. This is so I can know how to conduct myself around them or in the presence of other pets, like on a walk for example.

About: What makes me different is that caring for animals has been a big part of my life for years. I’m currently in college studying animal care, and I also worked at a zoo for 3 years, so I’ve had hands-on experience caring for and working around animals. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, including puppies, senior pets, disabled pets, cats, dogs, and reptiles. I’m patient, responsible, and I really take the time to get to know each animal and their individual needs. Since I commute to college and only have one class a week, I’m home a lot and have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m also a dog mommy myself, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. 🐾 I’m a full-time college student studying animal care, and since I commute to school and only have one class a week, I’m home a lot of the time. My schedule gives me a lot of flexibility to take care of pets throughout the day, whether that means walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. Since I’m studying animal care, I genuinely enjoy spending my time around animals and getting to know their different personalities and needs. I’m able to work pet care into my weekly routine without it feeling like a chore, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal schedule and routine while their owners are away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always try to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow their feeding schedule, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they have a clean, comfortable, and safe space. My home is also a great setup for pets. I have a fenced-in backyard, and I live close to a dog-friendly park and a dog park that’s only about 5 minutes up the road. I’m also near emergency animal hospitals, Petco, and Legacy Place, so there are plenty of pet-friendly places and resources nearby if needed. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to adjust to their personality and routine. Whether they’re energetic and love going outside, prefer relaxing at home, or need extra patience and attention, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for.

About: Hi! I’m Jenny, a nursing student and lifelong animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including my own senior husky, so I understand how important patience, attention, and a comfortable routine can be for every pet. I’m reliable, caring, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, lots of attention, or simply some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have and provide plenty of updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while your pet is in my care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 Even though I have a pretty busy school schedule, I always make room for pets! I spend a lot of time studying, so I love having a furry study buddy nearby to keep me company. I’m happy to take study breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention. Having pets around makes my day better, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my routine. I care for every pet based on their normal routine and what makes them feel most comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of walks or playtime, and of course lots of attention and cuddles if they enjoy that! I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have, whether that’s medications, crate routines, potty schedules, or certain behaviors to watch for. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been around dogs and cats all of my life. Growing up in the Hudson Valley, we had two dogs: an American Pit Bull Terrier and an APBT Staffie mix. They were the most athletic and lovey dogs! In their senior years, they had medical issues so I am experienced with med management and adopting activities to their capabilities. We also had several cats growing up including adopted strays. Currently, my fiance and I have a half APBT, half Siberian Husky dog. He is the best! We adopted him from a family that kept him in his crate for so long that he bit off a large portion of the hair on his tail. He was reactive in the beginning, lunging at cars on the road and barking and lunging at dogs on walks. I used Spirit Dog Training’s reactivity course and my education in behavioral psychology and research to fix these issues. He no longer does either things and his hair has grown back in spades! We keep him busy by training him (tricks) and mentally stimulated with sniff walks and games like find it, as well as off leash time, hikes, runs, etc. We love hiking with Oto: he recently completed numerous hikes in Acadia National Park and has done Camel’s Hump in VT and Mt. Osceola in NH: he plans on completing the NH 48! In general, I love being outside and active: hiking, snowshoeing, snowboarding, running, kayaking, rock climbing and going to the gym. I love all dogs, but have a particular drive to keep working dogs happy and healthy! German Shepherds, Border Collies, Huskies, Cattle Dogs, Anatolian Shepherds: it is amazing what they can do and how they have served our communities in numerous roles for decades. I have spent a lot of time with my sister’s German Shepherd and half GSD half Anatolian dogs and my family's Great Danes. I also volunteered at a therapeutic horseback riding center and rode horseback for several years; I find being around horses to be great training for how to interact with, and train, dogs. They are so big that they don’t HAVE to listen to you. Maintaining confidence (even if you don’t feel like it) and a steady hand go a long way, as well as keeping aware of their body language and behaviors. They are very sensitive creatures. In the Fall of 2026, I am resuming my graduate program in clinical social work and have indicated my availability in the details section. However, those times and days don't apply during winter and summer breaks (open availability then). Please share your dog's behaviors and needs with me before scheduling walks. If your dog is reactive (barks at dogs on walks or lunges) please let me know and I can adjust the walking route and make sure to give other dogs plenty of space. Let me know what their usual distance on walks is, as I can try to adjust my pace accordingly. I have a lot of experience with this (decades). If you have treats for your dog, I can take them out with me if needed.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals all my life. Whether it be my own pets (I currently have two cats), walking dogs or house sitting, I show up with all of my patience, understanding and vigilance. For the past 5+ years I worked in doggy daycares handling large groups of dogs in every size and shape. My responsibilities included maintaining a safe and clean environment for all and staying vigilant. I had to observe the dog’s behaviors at all times and be quick to think and act in order to de-escalate if needed. These environments needed a lot of patience and the ability to remain calm in high stress situations. The daycares also included boarding services which required morning and night feedings as well as giving medications when needed. This job gave me the skills needed to understand dog behavior and body language and how to respond. This job also gave me knowledge and skills in training and behavior management/modification. I believe I have a skill set that sets me apart because not only do I have the experience and honed abilities in something I love, I would be honored to put my hard work to use in service of the one you love. I have full weekly availability to be of service to you and your pets needs. Right now I have open availability Monday-Sunday for walking and home visits as well as occasional overnight availability. While my own home is not available for services I respect the client’s home the same as if it were my own. To care for pets in their own home is to keep to their routine and comfort and to put their safety and wellbeing above all else.

About: I grew up in a home with dogs, cats, bunnies, hens and roosters. I have never lived without caring for an animal! I love being outside, going for walks, playing and gardening. I am a mom of two school-aged boys and a proud owner of two tuxedo kitties whom we adopted nine years ago. I work part-time in the afternoons as an outdoor preschool art specialist. I am free between 9:30 am, and 1 pm everyday, and Wednesday and Thursday until 3 pm! I may also have early evenings free starting at the end of June. I have plenty of time in my schedule to help you care for your animals. Looking forward to meeting them! I am fun, gentle, playful and caring, and have a good instinct for what dogs and cats need. I can read body language and am sensitive to energy. I look forward to learning more about your pets from you, getting to know them and forging a relationship.

“Calvin has taken my very energetic 5 month old puppy for a few half hour walks while my husband and I are at work. Calvin always makes sure to update us and send cute pics of their walk!”

“Tanya did a great job taking our boxer Nala on daily afternoon walks. She was great at communicating any changes in her schedule with me, flexible to meet my needs to care for Nala, and always polite and professional. Thank you so much for you help Tanya! It was comforting knowing that Nala was in good hands while we were away.”

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and hamsters and I am willing to experience a lot more! Don’t worry, I always enjoyed animals and providing them with love and care, so your mind will be at ease when you are away. I recently completed school but I also work a per diem job. Aside from studying to receive my certification, I have plenty of time to be with your cute companions, and spend time with them. Who knows, maybe while we’re together we can become the best study buddies. I am extremely flexible and always willing to discuss further if you have interest in booking. As I’ve had plenty of experience with Cats, I’m well aware of choking hazards on string like materials. I try to keep items like this out of reach! I am very clean when it comes to my space and noticed that this helps as some kitty’s can be a little curious and knock things off surfaces. When things are put away correctly there’s less chance for mess or danger. I am still gaining some experience with Dogs and puppies. As far as safety, I only do leashed walks to not only protect your pup but others who may be passing by as well! Again, I'm pretty organized and will avoid leaving items out, especially food! I know some animals are very food motivated and leaving food products out can be dangerous.

About: I'm a caring and energetic person who loves adventures with small dogs!! Your dog will be loved & cared for when he/she is with me!!! I've been a dog owner for twenty five plus years. My beautiful senior Boston Terrier passed away at 10 and a half years old in the spring of 2021, so I am now available to take your little dog on my daily walks/hikes in the local area!! I I am an extraordinarily safe and caring human being! I've always enjoyed spending time outdoors with my dogs and will care for your dog as I would my own dog!

“Amanda was excellent! She was very kind, sweet and attentive with my puppy and took him on a nice long walk. She made sure to ask any questions and communicate everything, and we were able to trust her with our pup and our house while we were gone. We will definitely look to book with Amanda in the future next time we need a dog walker!”
