Dog Sitting Guilderland

“Megan is wonderful! You can tell she loves what she does and my dog so enjoys spending time with her. It makes being away from my fur baby much easier.”

“Natasha is always very great with my pup! My pup was being difficult about putting the harness on and she stayed a little extra to ensure she was taken care of. Thank you Natasha!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years through a mix of personal, volunteer, and professional experience. I grew up pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family, so I’ve been trusted with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from a young age. My parents also have two yorkies who I’ve helped care for over the years, which taught me a lot about routines, patience, and understanding each dog’s unique quirks. I also spend a couple of years working in a veterinary hospital in a client-care role. Even though I wasn’t a vet tech, I interacted with dogs every day and learned how to stay calm, read their body language, and make them feel comfortable in a new or unfamiliar environments. That experience helped me become confident handling shy, energetic, senior, and nervous pups. Between my personal background and my time in a vet setting, I’m comfortable with a wide range of dog temperaments and needs. I’m gentle, reliable, and always focused on making sure each dog feels safe, understood, and cared for. I work a hybrid job, which gives me a really flexible schedule for pet care. On my work from home days, I’m able to do quick walks throughout the day, especially around lunchtime or early afternoon. I’m available for drop/ins with plenty of notice. I’m also able to house sit on the days I’m remote or on weekends, and I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress free. If you need someone who can be around, keep your dog company, and provide reliable care during the day, my schedule works really well for that. Just let me know what you need, I’m happy to work with your routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. When I’m caring for a dog in your home, I keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Same feeding schedule, same walking style, same rules you use every day. I take the time to learn what helps your dog feel secure, whether that’s a quiet approach, extra playtime, or a slow, sniff-filled walk. I’m very respectful of your space and treat your home the same way I’d want someone to treat mine. I make sure doors are locked, lights are used responsibly, and everything is left clean and exactly how I found it. During visits or house-sitting, I keep a calm environment so your pet feels relaxed and safe while you’re away. I always pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. If something comes up, you’ll hear from me right away, communication and transparency are really important to me. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet and your home are in good hands.

“Elizabeth was wonderful - she was very prompt with all the time frames and took great care of our feline overlord! Lots of pictures, and we could tell that our cat enjoyed her company, would absolutely recommend her services!”

About: Hi, I’m Isabel! I’ve loved and lived with dogs my entire life, from tiny Chihuahuas to large Huskies. I graduated in 2025 with a Bachelor’s degree in Canine Training and Management from SUNY Cobleskill, where I studied canine behavior, positive reinforcement, and effective training methods. I also completed an internship at a canine training facility in Michigan, where I explored puppy behavior, enrichment, and the fundamentals of good doggy manners. With this background, I’m committed to providing every dog with thoughtful, knowledgeable care that supports their well-being, whether they’re a cuddle bug on the couch or an active pup who thrives on extra engagement and exercise. As a pet sitter, I’m caring, patient, and attentive, taking time to understand each dog’s personality and build trust with both pets and pet parents alike. My goal is to create a fun, positive experience that keeps tails wagging and dogs feeling happy! I currently have an open and flexible schedule and am happy to adjust my time to ensure your dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve! When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow your routines and instructions closely so your dog feels like you never left. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and mental enrichment, always keeping their individual needs and personalities in mind. My goal is to create a calm, happy environment where your dog feels safe, loved, and thoroughly cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been dog sitting dogs since I was a teenager. I have experience with many different breeds both big and small. Since I don’t have any pets of my own right now I love being able to go meet new furry friends and play with them I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I can make my own schedule based off of the needs clients may have. Depending on when your pets need care I can adjust my schedule accordingly It is my pleasure to keep your pets company while you are away. I am happy to help out with whatever is needed. I am reliable and will keep your pets company while you are away.

About: I have a very dog friendly home with a dog door accessible to a large fully fenced in yard. If your dog enjoys swimming during the summer months, my pool is dog friendly. I enjoy sending photos and videos of your pup(s) all day long. I visit the dog park for ball throwing and safe, leashed walks 2-3 times a day. At home play breaks in the fenced in yard are common practice in my house. Snuggles on the couch are a must! My yard is completely safe for dogs. I always provide fresh water and enjoy spending time with dogs: petting them, playing with them, talking to them and walking them. Dogs are the best! They all have their own personality and there is something special and charming about every dog.

About: I love all animals and have cared for many different kinds from cats and dogs to fish and axolotls! I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, I currently have experience caring for a mastiff bull mix, German Shepard and chihuahuas. I am always willing to learn more about different breeds and species and have deep respect for all animals. I have experience in handling medication as well. I am also offering poop scooping services please message me for more information. I look forward to working with you and your pets! I will be doing this job while being a full time stay at home mom so if your pet is not good with children please let me know in advanced so I can set up child care. I also have to work around nap time so I am not available 11am-330pm unless scheduled ahead of time and I am able to find child care. I currently do not offer services in my own home but I will respect your space and follow any and all directions and boundaries you set!

About: I work part time and am pretty flexible with my schedule. My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats but I grew up with dogs. I love dog sitting for friends and family. My previous dog was diabetic so I have given insulin and have with experience with senior dogs. I currently work part time so I have a lot of time to play with your animals! Our cats love to cuddle and to go for walks in their stroller. I use automatic feeders for dry food and give them wet food once a day. I’ve pet sat where animals are free fed or prefer to be fed at a specific time.

“Very quick with communication and did everything I asked!”

About: Hey Pet Owners! I'm Vivian! I’m a dedicated veterinary student who’s crazy about animals and loves turning pet care into a happy, stress-free experience. From playful pups to snuggly cats (and even the quirky small pets), I bring a mix of professional experience and genuine love to every visit. I can provide walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, and even medication if needed — all while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally spoiled. With my vet training, I’m quick to notice anything out of the ordinary, and with my animal-obsessed heart, I’m all about belly rubs, chin scratches, and tail wags. I have also taken care of many pets in the past as well as even bigger farm animals so I am your gal! Whether you’re away for a day or a week, you can relax knowing your furry (or feathered!) friend is in caring, capable hands. Let’s make your pet’s day as fun as possible! It would be part of my day to day routine before going to work or dropping by on my weekends! Either way will make it work with the owners schedule to make it happen! I provide services where I would care for your pet with the utmost responsibility in your home making sure your pet and your property is safely secure and well kept!

About: I have previously worked at a cat shelter (approx 250-300 cats), I have been a cat owner consistently for 21 years, I have sat a “zoo” before ~ dogs, cats, birds, a frog, fish, etc. I love to spend quality time with pets, not just a quick 5 minute drop in. I will happily rub their belly on top of feeding them. I have never, ever met a cat that didn’t like me! Typically the complete opposite & they end up adoring me. 😅 I work full time during the day til 5:00 and am remote 3 days a week (mon, tues, fri), with a compressed workweek that makes it possible to have every other Friday off. M-F I could do an evening visit only, and on days off (every other Friday or weekends) I could do one visit in the morning & one in the evening. Thanks to summer hours at my FT job I am available after 1pm every Thursday through August 28th. My cats are spoiled ~ there’s 2 litter boxes, 2 wet food dishes, 2 areas with dry crunchy food, and a water fountain. They get Churu’s or treats every once in awhile. I keep the floors clean so they don’t find some random thing to chew on. So needless to say I would treat your cat like royalty pretty much. 😊

About: Hi, my name is Kayla, I'm a licensed Veterinary nurse at Cornell. I have a special love for elderly dogs, but I do love all animals at all life stages!

I have plenty of space in my apartment for roaming as well as a dog who respects other dog's boundaries as well as a welcoming cat who is no stranger to dog's antics.

“Scott was fantastic while taking care of our cats for the weekend. He clearly has lots of experience with cats and animals of all kinds. Scott made sure to ask good questions regarding their care needs which made me feel very comfortable having him watch our cats while we were gone. I will certainly be having Scott watch them again!”

I do not just come and go like most people, I plan to give your animals joy when I visit. I have worked in a vet clinic for approx a year so I do have some specialized skills administering meds when needed and cleaning up after them. I can board one pet at a time , only on weekends ( Friday night - Sunday) when I board animals I do not have my cat present , as they will be kept separated. I do have a large kennel and a lot of space to play in the fenced yard. My schedule is flexible. I am very open on weekends, nights and holidays. I also accept same-day cancellations for emergencies and same day appointments because I understand life happens. I create a loving and safe environment for the animals I care for. I believe that the animals I care for will Bond with me, especially if I am coming back routinely. I think that is important for the animals to have a happy and fun experience and a very loving and trusting experience.

Not only do I find great joy in caring for dogs and other animals, I think that they provide an important staple to human wellbeing and content, as the health of your pet reflects the health of you.
