House Sitting in Garrison

“Jordan was a member of our family from the start! She is an incredibly caring and detail-oriented sitter, and she made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dear girls in her hands and heart! One of my dogs was needing extra care recovering from a surgery and getting all her meds, and Jordan was perfect. Both my girls loved her and we will definitely have her back! We love you Jordan!!”

“Corinne did a fantastic job watching our 8 month old Bernedoodle for the first time while my husband and I were out of town! She was communicative, sent us pictures, gave her lots of activity, and snuggles. Would definitely book Corinne again for dog sitting!!”

“Preston watched my 2.5 year old sheepadoodle Archie for just under 2 weeks while I was traveling. I highly recommend Preston to anyone who needs a house sitter. He was great with Archie and provided me updates as needed and was easy to get a hold of. He even began training Archie on some different skills. He even left my house cleaner than when I left it. Preston was a great choice for house sitting and I will definitely try to use him again if I ever need someone to watch my pup and house!”

“Alexis was great with our pups. We got daily updates, and all of our requests were handled. We have a fear reactive pup and Alexis was even willing to come and meet our pooches several times before our actual trip to allow our pups to get comfortable (and vice versa). Alexis is chill and easy going and the doggos vibed well with that. We found Alexis to be very reliable, patient, responsible, kind, and essentially everything we could ask for in a sitter. We definitely recommend Alexis.”

“Everything went smoothly with MK. She stayed at our cottage with our two dogs for a long weekend and they seemed very happy when we returned.”

“Emily was super excited to stay with my pups even with their quirks and was able to book within a week of my vacation and meet them when I had a last minute cancelation with someone else! She was very responsive both before and during my trip and kept me updated about my dogs with pictures which was super appreciated! She was also able to give medication to one of them as needed and follow the food directions as well as made time to sit with one of them who will only eat with company. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Nicole was fantastic! Our dog Juniper loved having her spend a night with her. I felt very comfortable having her in our home and taking care of our girl. When she had to leave while we were in our way home, she was sure to leave the TV on for our dog, it was a great touch of care. We know she listened to the little details we spoke about during our introduction. We will definitely be using Nicole again!”

Chelsea B.

“Brittany watched our dog, Luna, for a full week while we were away. Luna can be insecure and protective and doesn’t always warm up easily to new people, but Brittany went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable. She came over several times before the booking to get to know Luna, which made a huge difference. While we were away, Brittany sent plenty of photos, bonded beautifully with Luna, and even brought in our mail and packages. She is a wonderful find for anyone who wants peace of mind knowing their pet is truly well cared for.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child. I owned two Miniature Pinschers growing up and I adopted one Australian Shepherd mix that has special needs as an adult. I trained all of my dogs from the time they were puppies until they passed away as seniors. I also volunteered at the Humane Society of Westchester. I've always enjoyed being around animals since I was young and animals tend to feel the same way about me. Animals who are usually timid around strangers are comfortable around me right away and they seem to trust me right away. I feel like connecting with animals (dogs specifically) is a gift that I have. Being a sitter is a great way for me to use that gift in everyday life. I'm able to adapt to the normal routine of the pets that I'm sitting in order to make the process as smooth as possible. I don't have a lot of room in my studio apartment so I'm only able to watch either 1-2 small dogs or one medium sized dog. Large dogs are too big for my apartment. If I'm at a client's home, I'll change my schedule to meet the needs of the pet. I believe all animals are unique and all have different needs in order to thrive in the environment that they're in. I'm willing to meet those needs by building my schedule around the animals that I'm sitting.

“Sammantha is our go-to care taker for our rat terrier Indy. She is very responsive and treats Indy like one of her own. Indy loves when Sammantha comes to visit. Highly recommended!”

“Maria was great. She took care of two very picky dogs and made them feel safe and comfortable. One is an old rescue Chihuahua mix who is very sensitive to noise and any moving objects. The other was an another rescue Cocker Spaniel who is fearful, timid, very nervous and anxious (who is on anti-anxiety med). Both of them are very picky when it comes to humans. They only accept and like very particular people who have good and calm energy. Maria passed their test! They seemed to have liked her so much that they became her velcro dogs by the end of fifth day. Thank you very much for taking good care of them.”

“Collin and Hayden were great! They met us a few days before and our dog Leti loved them. I showed them around the home and our usual dog walk route, and they arrived promptly at the appointed time. I received photos of Leti being all happy throughout the day, and when I came home Leti loved them so much, she jumped up to give them full face licks of joy! I would happily book them again and recommend them to anyone else. As the parents of two dogs themselves they really know how to take care of dogs and make them feel all the love.”

Megan C.

“Thank you, Brandon, for taking such good care of Imo. He really likes you a lot! We look forward to your next stay.”

“Thu was amazing. I had another sitter booked who canceled on me on Thanksgiving morning! Thu saved the day! She spent lots of time loving my babies and sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with many years of hands on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler pace, as well as cats, rabbits, and other small animals. I feel deeply attuned to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I approach every pet with patience, empathy, and genuine affection. Caring for animals is something that comes naturally to me. Friends and family consistently rely on me for regular pet sitting and care because they trust me to be attentive, responsible, and loving. I understand how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I currently work in yoga and childcare, which gives me a flexible schedule and a calm, grounded presence that animals tend to respond well to. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, overnights, or meds/extra TLC, I’m here to provide a safe and nurturing environment. I would love to meet you and your pet and support their routine while you’re away! I work here as a yoga teacher and provide child care to local families, my schedule is very flexible and moves between Beacon and Peekskill. I am happy to adhere to the routines you have created and personalize care based on your fur baby's needs. Walking, overnights, any special care ( treatments/ meds).

“Erica is a fantastic stand in dog mom! She just takes so much care in doing the best she can to keep things "normal" for your pups while youre gone, which is especially important for my younger two who are still pressing the boundaries :D. And you get a ton of pics too! Definitely would recommend 150%!”

“Karena was awesome to Tyler! Brought her to the dog park and even cleaned her up after”

About: Animals are basically part of my DNA. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was a child, and I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals. I’ve also been riding and caring for horses my entire life, which means I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and understanding animal behavior. I have hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to seniors who need a calmer pace and extra TLC. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so pets are never left alone and are part of my daily routine. My home sits on 3 acres of private property surrounded by a state park, which means lots of space for play and long walks or hikes. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets by treating them like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of supervised exercise, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that means extra activity for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency with puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“No worries your dog is with a superstar! He was accommodating and loving towards our very senior Maltese and he also took time to reach out and update. Hes great with my lab too!!! He is fantastic! Highly would recommend and rebook. Very caring individual”

“David, was great with our 85+lb 1 year old puppy. He kept him safe, gave him plenty of exercise and attention, and even some training reinforcement. David was punctual, neat and tidy in the house, and truly loves animals. I would not hesitate to use him again and have already booked for our next service.”
