About: Hi, I’m Angel – your pet’s new best friend! As a lifelong animal lover, I know just how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family. That’s exactly what I do. Whether I’m staying in your home or welcoming your furry friends into mine, you can count on me to provide compassionate, trustworthy, and reliable care—tail wags and all! (I travel within a 60 mile radius from my home 🏡) Here’s what I offer: 🐶 House Sitting & Pet Care – I’ll care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, sticking to their routines and making sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I also keep your home tidy, bring in the mail, water plants, and make it look lived in for peace of mind. 🏡 Boarding in My Home – Your pets become part of my pack while they stay with me! My home is cozy, pet-friendly, and full of snuggles. I keep their schedule consistent and make sure they feel right at home, whether they’re here for a weekend or a longer vacation. (Dog walking and drop in visits are also available!) I happily care for dogs, cats, and a variety of small pets like bunnies, ferrets, guinea pigs/hamsters, and birds. (I also have “hobby farm” experience from chickens to horses) And while I love animals of all shapes and sizes, I unfortunately do not offer care for snakes or spiders—just sticking to the furry and feathered friends I know best! I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, playtime, and plenty of belly/butt rubs and scratches. Whether they’re shy, energetic, cuddly, or independent, I take the time to understand their personalities and make sure they feel secure and loved. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your pets happy and your mind at ease, I’d love to chat!🤗 Pet care isn’t just something I fit into my schedule — it is a part of my life. My days often revolve around visits, walks, feedings, snuggles, and check-ins, and I truly love every moment of it. Whether it’s starting my morning with a wagging tail or ending the day with a purring cuddle, caring for animals brings so much joy and purpose to me! Whether your pup or kitty is in my home or yours, keeping them safe and happy is my #1 priority! I follow your instructions, create a cozy vibe, and shower them with love (and maybe some extra belly rubs). I’m all about building trust — with your pet and you — so I’ll keep you in the loop with updates and be just a message away if you need me. Relax knowing your pet(s) are in great hands!

About: i’ve always loved animals and been looking for a way to incorporate that passion into some sort of job while being home for the summer away from college ! i’m working part time as a cleaner at the moment, and those shifts vary but i’m free every day just depends on the time of day needed! it is guaranteed that if i am going into your home, i will proceed with caution and care. not only for the sake of the pet, but as well as the owner!

About: I’ve cared for many of my own pets, more than just dogs and cats. Family and family friends have relied on me to watch their pets while on vacay. One of which is on 2 meds morning and night. With puppies I can do simple training I’m currently unemployed, so my availability is open to care for the fur babies that can’t do it all for themselves. Your furbabies routine becomes my routine My fur baby, Milo gets fresh water daily, refill food as needed, scoop litter every other day. And when it’s time to clean up after him everything gets a good wash especially the litter box because I myself cannot let that get disgusting. He gets his nails trimmed by me, and bathed from time to time

“Averi was very easy to work with. She is flexible and understanding. When I booked her for four-days, then had to cancel due to a change in circumstances, she immediately responded and helped process the refund. The one day that she took our dogs out for a walk, she walked them for a mile, ensured they had food and water, and she even helped mop up their accidents. When we came home to greet our dogs, they were much calmer than normal. I believe this is due to the time, attention, and care that Averi put into her duties. If we ever need a dog-walker, again, in the future, we will consider Averi first!”

About: Volunteering at shelters and owning an array of pets throughout my life helps me understand fully how to care for a creature. I've never turned away an animal and have worked with nursing birds, rodents, bunnies, and kittens back to health after rescuing them. I also love working with exotic pets like amphibians or reptiles, but mainly I board and walk dogs! I'm very good at reading body language and training stubborn dogs, and working with animals full time would be a dream career. Right now I'm studying premedicine / ecology at UA and taking care of animals over the summers to save money for school! Going to Albany on the 24th! Until then I can board, but afterwards I'm switching my location and removing boarding from my services as I'll be on campus. Large yard with electric fence and 2 extra collars for a medium dog. Home with 3 accessible stories, dog food, treats, litter box, toys and plenty of enrichment. Dog beds and human beds for sleeping, large safe neighborhood for walks!!

About: *Please read through and understand my policies before booking - your pets well-being is what is most important to me! I have taken care of various pets since I was a kid. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, and bearded dragons! I have always been the family/friend go-to for help with animals whether it is walking dogs, house-sitting, ect. I am a huge animal advocate and a Humane Policy Leader Volunteer with the ASPCA. Throughout high school and college, I looked for opportunities to help animals at an individual level (doing some rescue work, rehab work, fundraising, ect.), and it has greatly improved my knowledge about providing care for animals of various needs. I take the health and safety of animals very seriously, and will treat yours as my own. If you book a 24 hour+ period with me as your pet’s only caregiver, I require a minimum of 3 visits daily and will not allow your dog to be alone for more than 12 hours. With cats and other small animals there is flexibility with the amount of drop-ins. I also typically only do last minute bookings for clients I’ve worked with previously because they know my standards and I know their pet’s needs - this helps ensure that the client is comfortable with my care, the pet is comfortable with my care, and I am comfortable providing my services. I am available everyday for pet care and at various times. All scheduling details can be discussed further at a meet and greet to ensure you feel comfortable with the care your pet will be receiving :) I have special experience with diabetic animals, deaf animals, and animals with health/behavior needs. So that I am able to best take care of your pet, please let me know if there is anything I should know about your pet so that I can be prepared to give them the proper care. I would also ask that a meet and greet is set up prior to future visits so that we can ensure your pets comfortability with me while you are away! I will ensure during visits to send pictures of your pet to you and provide a summary of the visit to put your mind at ease, and of course text me on Rover at any point with any concerns or needs. As a fellow animal parent, I understand we experience some separation anxiety from our pets!

About: I have been dedicated to the pet care industry since 2011, offering reliable and compassionate care for dogs, cats, and small animals. My experience spans working in pet stores, veterinary clinics, and providing in-home pet sitting services. I specialize in caring for senior pets and administering medications, ensuring every animal's unique needs are met. I take great pride in treating each pet as if they were my own because I believe pets are just as much a part of the family as humans. I am available to play and care for your pets when your life gets busy. Drop in? Afternoon walk? Night time feeding? I’ll be there. I take pride in listening to my clients requests for their pets. I request that my clients leave a detailed list of feeding times, medication schedules, favorite toys, pets habits, list of phone numbers like their vets office, etc, as well as pets likes and dislikes so I can be sure all pets feel as comfortable as possible while in my care.

About: I am a veterinary assistant during the day in which I care for dogs with diabetes, kidney failure, hypothyroidism, joint and hip problems, you name it! I have my own dog as well named Huckleberry. I have experience with exotics as well! I used to work at a few zoos! I am available mornings anytime between 5am and 8am, lunch time (between 12pm and 2pm) and anything after 5pm! If this doesn’t work, please don’t hesitate to ask questions. My schedule is flexible. While in the client’s home I treat the pets and the home with the utmost care. When coming home I make sure the home is clean so that you don’t have to worry about that after traveling.

I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress- free as possible. I take time to learn their preferences, feeding schedule, energy level, and comfort zones so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s snuggling on the couch, playtime, or quiet companionship, I meet your pet where they’re at. I also handle essentials like feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and any needed medication. I’ll keep you updated with notes and photos so you know your pet is happy and doing well! When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I only take in pets I know I can safely accommodate based on my current availability and their individual needs. My dog Susie is friendly and happy to share her space with respectful animal guests, but I always make sure personalities are a good match first.
