“Elizabeth was fantastic with our dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We returned from our trip and found our animals were happy and well cared for. Elizabeth went above and beyond and made sure our dogs had comfort during fireworks which typically cause them to have high anxiety. I’ll definitely book with them again!”

About: Who better than a veterinarian to take care of your best buddies while you're away? I am a new DVM graduate, and am happy to take care of your pets, no matter how old or young, especially those with special needs! I am certified in dog/cat CPR, and am comfortable providing any care needed. *Please note*: My providing pet sitting/dog walking/pet care services does NOT constitute a VCPR, and I cannot provide medical advice unless a VCPR is explicitly established in accordance with NY State Law* I prefer to stay in the client's home especially for dogs as this is generally much more comfortable for the dog to stay in their own environment. For overnight stays, I like to meet the dogs beforehand with owners present. This way they are assured it is okay to have me in their space for staying with them.

“Kelly did a great job checking in on our girl. She kept us updated on her walks and play time and Ripley was all smiles when we got home. We will definitely book with Kelly in the future.”

About: I have been lucky enough to spend time with dogs of a range of ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need a slower pace and a gentle touch. I’m comfortable with a wide range of needs, just let me know! I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious dogs, and I always move at their pace. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language, so I can respond quickly if something seem off. But most importantly, I make sure that they're safe and happy, while waiting for their favorite person to come back to them. Caring for the fluffy angels is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily life. My schedule is flexible and I can work from home, which means I can dedicate quality time to walks, play, feeding, and companionship without rushing. Whether I'm welcoming pets into my home or caring for them in their own space, I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I live in a quiet apartment surrounded by forest and green space, with very little car traffic in the neighborhood, which is perfect for peaceful walks and outdoor sniff time. At my place, I maintain a clean and cozy space with plenty of room for your doggie or kitty to lounge, play, or nap. In your home, I'll respect the privacy and cleaness of your space. I will follow your care instructions closely, from feeding routines to medication schedules and favorite toys, because I know how important familiarity and consistency is to their happiness.

“It’s clear Dawn cares about my kitties that she is pet-sitting. I feel much better about my absence than I thought I could with all her care and communication”

“Hunter is very reliable and is always so good to our pup! She even sends us pictures of our dog during her visits so we know that he is taken care of 😊”

About: Hello! I started pet-sitting seriously in graduate school and had a consistent base of clients for two years. Later, I volunteered at a local humane society where I cared for and interacted with cats and dogs multiple times a week, for three years. This experience taught me a great deal more about dogs, including behaviors, breed traits, and exercise needs. While it's not my profession, animal care-taking has definitely become my passion! I've taken care of cats with very specific feeding programs as well as dogs who have special needs (like my lazy friend Colonel Lafayette the Basset Hound in my pictures). I treat every animal exactly how they want to be treated. Sometimes that is a lot of love and affection, but sometimes there are cats who like their distance! Whatever your animal needs, I'm happy to accommodate them. I commute daily and can easily work in visits in the early morning and late afternoon. Weekends are quite free for longer visits and homestays. It's an honor to have a key to someones home and to be trusted to care for their animals, and I take this very seriously. I am a guest in your home, but in that time your pet is family to me. I always make sure to leave a home neater than I found it, and will double, triple check that all is as it should be before I depart.

“Coleman is a true gem! Our poodle Coby is very attached to us and usually gets anxious when we leave—even if just one of us steps out. So we were absolutely amazed at how relaxed he was with Coleman. From the moment Coleman arrived, Coby liked him. Coleman clearly has a calm, kind energy that animals pick up on right away. Coby was so content during Coleman’s stay that he didn’t even wake up when we returned home—he stayed fast asleep on his bed! That has never happened before. Coleman is friendly and trustworthy. You'll enjoy having him in your home. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our beloved pup. Highly, highly recommend Coleman!”

About: I have always been the animal person in my family, and my community. I’ve always had dogs in my life, but where I’m living I can’t have one of my own, so I’m more than happy to take care of your pets when you need a break! I currently am not working, and I have a farm job starting in June. My availability is very flexible, so more time for hanging out with pups! I can’t bring pets home, but I am very experienced with walking dogs and getting them the exercise they need. I can give your animals lots of love and attention and make sure they are safe and healthy.

“Emma was super responsible and great with taking care of the cats. I would totally use her services again!”

“We were very lucky to have Chantal looking after our two kitties. She is kind, caring, and reliable. She’s to the time to not only feed and clean after the boys but also to play with them. When we ran into an issue (our fault, not hers) she went out of her way to resolve it. We hope we get to book with her again!”

Juan P.

“It is the second time Gabriela has taken care of Vanilla, and once again she was great! She is prompt at communicating, reliable, and our cat was delighted to have her come take care of him again. We came back to a well fed and happy cat, while having the peace of mind knowing she was in charge while we were away!”

About: I have hands-on experience with animals, caring for my family dog by bathing, playing, and loving her, and taking care of my cat by feeding him twice daily, cleaning his teeth, and ensuring regular vet check-ins. With a flexible schedule, working only three times a week, I have ample free time to dedicate to additional responsibilities. This will allow me to spend my time catering to your pets needs. To take care of pets in the home, I prioritize their daily needs and well-being. I ensure they are fed on a consistent schedule, provide fresh water, and maintain a clean living environment. I dedicate time to grooming, such as brushing fur and cleaning teeth, and I stay attentive to their health with regular vet visits and monitoring for any changes in behavior. I also engage them with play, exercise, and affection to keep them happy and stimulated.

“Jonah was amazing! They are extremely communicative and are really knowledgeable on what was best for my kitties. They always answer very quickly which is much appreciated. Everyday, they would leave thorough messages about how my cats were doing. I will absolutely be reaching out to them again when I leave town next!”
