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!

Dennis is personable, prompt, and flexible. He offers a variety of services for your canine companion. I appreciated his very thoughtful observation of my dog’s body language, behavior, and preference cues - Elliot can take a moment to warm up to new friends and lives to play with his flirt stick. I would, without reservation, recommend Dennis as your walker, play date companion, and house sitter.

Athol, NY, 12810

About: I've had pets since I was 7 years old and have always loved animals. Currently we have a senior cat and a newly adopted kitten. I enjoy being able to spend time with other people’s pets and ensure they are cared for and have the same routines and schedules as when their pet parents are home. I’ve cared for friends and family's animals in the past. I can administer medicine, follow feeding schedules, walk, play and spend quality time with your pets while you are away. My husband and I moved from Indianapolis to New York in October of 2022. We’ve been spending most our time on home renovations and loving how peaceful our new home is. I am available to stay in client’s home and/or provide drop in care and walks as well. I will follow instructions provided so that you feel confident your pet is well cared for and I will update you with pictures and check in regularly.

About: From the excited, to the reserved, to the elderly, I have a depth of experience to care for your animal kin. I've helped care for senior dogs when they struggled to walk down stairs, when food requirements changed on a whim, when the house has to be changed to reduce trips on tiles, and even when they can start wandering past bed time. It was not easy to care for them as puppies and it's not easy when they are elderly. But if one loves enough when they are babies, then they love enough to do the same as they are seniors. I'm between jobs and actively looking, so I have plenty of time to care for all your animal family members beyond a stop to fill bowls and empty boxes and the like. It all comes down to the first meeting. Not the first job. I want to know what you, your pets, and your house is like so I can do my very best to be attentive and observent in caring for them. This includes setting up a person emergency plan for common emergency care should it arise. Preparedness beats panic after all!

I have known Rebecca since 2019 and she has done an amazing job hosting my two cats over the years! I often visit family in Florida and Long Island, so Rebecca has been my go-to sitter while I'm away. One time I had an emergency and Rebecca was able to accommodate my furbabies same day. She regularly sends me photos of Barry and Love while I'm away. I will continue to go to Rebecca for my pet care needs in the future. Her family has been running an animal shelter her whole life, so she has a lot of experience and is great with animals!
