Top rated Delmar house sitters

“Heather was wonderful to have stay with our girls while we were out of the country. One needs a bit more care now and we worried about leaving her. However, Heather had no problem providing them with everything they needed while we were away. She was great with communication and our house was just as we left it.”


“Jenna and Aiden were absolutely a dream! My dogs were well cared for. We came home to happy healthy dogs and a house in better shape than when we left. They absolutely went above and beyond. They gave us updates on the dogs with pictures. We will be using them again!”


“Megan was great house sitting with our young dog. She came to meet him prior to accepting the appointment, arrived on time and kept us informed with pictures throughout the day. We were very pleased.”


“Bradley was the perfect pet sitter. He was communicative and responsive and treated my home with respect. He sent frequent updates and pictures of my cat. He even helped out when the cat went missing unexpectedly, offering to look for him and lending a cat carrier. I will be using Bradley again for sure and I recommend you use him for your pet needs too!”



“Natasha is wonderful. Our boy Eddy has separation anxiety and tends to be agitated when we leave him. Eddy is very calm when Natasha takes care of him, whether it’s is one day or several. When we return home it’s as if we never left. Eddy is also a strong boy and can be dog reactive. Natasha is experienced and handles him well on walks. I absolutely recommend Natasha!!”



About: I have actively been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager, and in doing so I have worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and dog of different ages. My manner of minding focuses on building a connection with the dog while uniquely understanding the breed and the specific needs they may need met. I'm very active and thus great with dogs who are looking to get in shape or have high energy levels. I have experience working with dogs who have been abused or neglected and re-socialising them. My home is large enough for multiple dogs of many sizes to be comfortable in as well as a short walk away from multiple parks. Both mornings as well nights are currently available Monday-Sunday.

“Sydney was just wonderful with my pup! She stayed the night with him and gave me great, detailed updates and videos… made sure he was well cared for and got plenty of attention while I was gone. I would not hesitate to hire her again,”


“Frankie and hit it off from the very first moment of the meet & greet, so I felt fine leaving Cinnie in her care. We received a bunch of photos and short videos so we didn't miss our girl while we were gone. And when I returned Cinnie was happy, the house looked just as I had left it, and I now have a new option to call upon the next time we will be out of town and I need coverage for Cinnie. Well done Frankie!”


“Haylea stayed with our 13 year old dog for 5 nights. Since we are both retired, it was especially important to us that our dog have a lot of company as she is used to our being home. A big plus is Haylea works from home 4 of 5 days a week and was able to be with our dog a lot. Haylea texted photos and kept us up to date on how our fur baby was doing. Highly recommend her!”


About: Hi, I’m Destiny, a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats! I’ve had cats in my family since I was 8 and have had my own cat for almost 4 years. I’ve also cared for and walked all size dogs from a chihuahua to a great dane, including my own family dogs back in high school. I know how important it is to provide pets with personalized attention, exercise, and enrichment. Whether it’s a high-energy walk, a relaxing stroll, or playtime with your furry friend, I make sure every pet gets the care they deserve. I’m also experienced with leash training, enrichment activities, and handling larger dogs. I'm happy to go over any specific instructions or needs for your pet to make sure they get care you want and the love they deserve! I'm currently working a full time job and looking for some extra work to make ends meet. I'm available all weekends and early mornings or evenings until sunset through the week. I'm also in the Albany area and can absolutely make a mid-day walk work if that's what you or your pet needs! With one cat at home, I can absolutely accommodate other kitties overnight. Unfortunately, dog sitting is not an option for me at the moment but I'm willing to go the extra mile to drop in for visits, walks, and can crate or settle them down when leaving them. I know you love your furry friend and want to give them the best care, I’m here to help in whatever way I can!

“Allie was wonderful! We had her do house sitting while away for a week. She was tidy in the house and so responsive to any communications. Dependable and trust worthy. She took great care of the pups and spent a lot of time with them. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone looking!”


“Ava stepped up for us last minute when previous arrangements fell through. She is kind and considerate and wanted to make sure Tucker and Zeke had the best time while I was gone. I came home to a tidy house and she even stripped the sheets off the bed she slept in. I was not expecting that. I got daily photos of each dog while I was away, but I know deep down they did not miss me 🤣. I would reach out to her again.”


About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life and I doubt that will ever change! I’m very gentle and like to take a soft approach when meeting with new furry friends in order to establish a basis of trust that is important for their best comfort and care. I am also quite flexible handling pets’ individual needs and go out of my way to ensure they are met. I’m currently on break from grad school, so my schedule leaves much open time for daily walks and quality companionship, as well as boarding on the weekends! I also live very close to a beautiful park with many walking paths and open greenery that I would be happy to show your pup if that’s their fancy :) P.S.— I’m still eagerly accepting new routine clients! I like to keep a clean home environment that would be comfortable for any furry friend, and I strive to respect the homes of any pet that I care for in the same way. Additionally, if you choose to board your pets with me, you can rest assured they will have my undivided attention as I only allow one boarding booking per weekend for that reason.

About: My first cat was way back in 1992 when a pregnant cat adopted me. She lived in the apartment next door with 4 other cats, a single Mom and 2 little girls. She would visit my apartment daily, also scoping me out, because she had future plans. Soon after I was the proud Human Step-Mom to Mama cat and her 5 kittens. That started my love for the feline species. I've always owned and loved dogs since my childhood. My first dog's name was Rusty, a smart and gorgeous Golden Retriever. I had tanks full of fish, multiple birds (Peanut could talk-he was a Green Cheek Conure), and often cared for my daughters ferret, Franklin, when she went on vacations. No pets are off limit ..... except snakes and spiders. Willing to administer meds. Currently I am doing pet care full time so I am available just about 24/7. I do have pets at home so I would need to take some time to attend to their needs during the day as well. I currently have both a dog and cat living with me so care outside of my home is preferable. I'm available almost all day and can stop in whenever necessary.

“Haley was amazing!! She spent days with our cat Eugene while we were on holiday, and I was completely at ease knowing she was with him. We came back to a happy cat and mess free house! I am sooooo grateful for Haley and cannot recommend her enough!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years, both personally and professionally. As a lifelong dog mom, I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. Beyond daily walks and playtime, I have experience with administering medications, caring for senior pets, and keeping anxious pups calm and comfortable. My background as a registered nurse has made me attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented, which carries over into the way I care for animals. You can trust that your pet will not only be safe with me, but also loved, spoiled, and treated with the same patience and compassion I give my own dogs. I am currently working part time and have availability in my schedule to love and care for your pet. I have pets of my own and would love nothing more than to have clients who are comfortable knowing they will receive care that is above and beyond. I treat all pets like they are my own. I have a fenced in yard where your pet can run and play. I also have spare rooms if they need to be separated for any reason, safety being my main concern.

“Odie had such a fun weekend with Erica! He was tired out when I got home and my house was cleaner than I left it. She is very thoughtful and kept me updated throughout her stay. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”


About: I love each and every dog I’ve ever met. They are all so sweet and unique. Nothing beats making a pup feel super special - because they are! Frequent walks, belly rubs, ear scratches - whatever it takes to keep that tail wagging! I work 9-5 M-F, 15 minutes from home. I can WFH whenever needed. My weekend schedule is low key, as I am usually doing chores around the house or running local errands. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I do have a lead for the back yard for play time. I live in a quiet (no outlet) neighborhood that is super dog friendly. The house has plenty of space and is equipped with multiple puppy cams.

Steven D.
“Between conducting independent research and working towards a PhD, I unfortunately found myself very busy and thereby unable to make time to walk my dog. Steven Dang was recommended to me by a friend who had been in a similar circumstance, and so I went ahead and contacted Steven with the offer to walk my dog during the evenings when I would be away, and that I of course, would pay him. Steven was very professional, answering my e-mails in a timely manner, being punctual for our initial and subsequent meetings, and never failing to meet my expectations. In fact, I was worried that my dog would end up loving him more than me, but I digress. As my friend did to me, I highly recommend Steven Dang for this job. Polite, charming, and an extremely hard-worker (he never failed to miss an appointment no matter the weather), I am utterly grateful towards Steven for making my life easier and walking my dog.”

Destiny S.
“Destiny was such a wonderful caretaker for my fur babies when I was on vacation! She watched my two cats, and one of them truly has dog energy so I was glad that Destiny was able to keep him entertained. He can be quite a handful. I'm so glad she was able to keep them from destroying my furniture which I'm sure they would've done because they get crazy when they get lonely. But she kept them well fed, well entertained, and well groomed! The older one is a long hair, and she can get pretty matted, so I asked Destiny to use the pet brush every once in a while. Destiny also sent me pictures of my babies, to show me how they were doing. She was such a stellar companion for my kitties, couldn't recommend her more!”

“Debra took great care of my two cats while I was away. They are quite spoiled and had never been away from home before.

Deb consistently provides attentive care, ensuring pets are safe, healthy and happy. Whether it involves feeding on schedule, keeping living spaces clean, or spending quality time through play and companionship, Deb approaches every task with reliability and kindness.
