Cat Sitting in High Falls

“Grettel was fantastic with our shy kitties. She slowly introduced herself to them and was eventually able to gain their trust. We loved getting all the updates from her and pics of them while we were away. She’s amazing and we’d highly recommend her to other pet parents!”

“Jen did a wonderful job with my Kitties! They had a good time with her and she accommodated a last minute request. I would definitely recommend Jen to anyone looking for petcare. You can tell she is caring and enjoys taking care of furbabies :)”

“Lexi was fabulous, Walter and Bageera were both very well taken care of and we were kept up to date the whole time. We missed our kids (pets) very much while we were gone but very confident that we left them in good hands with Lexi. NO WORRIES 😉 👍🏼”

About: Hi there! I am a house/pet sitter with extensive experience caring for peoples pets and homes across the US. I treat your fur babies with love, care, and detailed attention. Whether your pet loves hours of play and long walks or needs some extra cuddles to soothe their anxiety while you're away, I meet every pet where they're at and make sure to put home & pet owners at ease while they're away. I have experience with drop in pet care (walks, feeding, meds, trips to the dog park, etc.) as well as long term house and pet sitting jobs. I've worked with dogs of every size and age. I also have experience with farm animals (not horses), cats, birds, and small pets. Basically, I do it all! Reach out and let me know what your needs are. I am a part-time web designer who works from home, so I am available for overnight sitting, part-time care and drop-in care! I run a pet sitting company off of Rover called Upstate Safe & Snug. I do not care for pets in my own home at this time. I am respectful, clean, and follow directions when I am working in other folks' homes. I've never had an issue.

“Kimberly was so sweet and attentive to my old super senior kitty who’s been having health issues. She has a sweet momma like energy and was able to successfully give him his meds which he can be difficult about taking. I felt so safe knowing he was under her thoughtful care. Thank you so much for watching over Luke while i was away!”

“My dog immediately bonded to Rose as soon as she walked into the house. She has an incredible way with dogs, and a deep knowledge of their behavior and needs. She is a true dog lover! I feel grateful that we found her, as it is such a relief to know there is someone who can take great care of our canine family member when we cannot be around.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for the last 10 years, and my friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk and feed their pets too! I love cats and dogs of all kinds! I work Wednesday-Monday during the day so I can walk, feed, or play with pets in the afternoons and evenings or I can house sit overnight. I am used to high-energy dogs and cats that need someone to play with and get their energy out, or to take them for a long walk.

About: I’m not here to “just stop by.” I’m here to do it properly. I notice what’s off, what’s needed, and what keeps your pet settled — and I handle it without making it a production. You get thoughtful updates, a respected home, and a pet that feels like nothing’s been disrupted. Pet care fits in cleanly — not squeezed in. I keep my schedule intentional, so when I commit to a visit, your pet gets my full attention, not whatever time is left over. I’m consistent, on time, and mindful of routines — because that’s what actually keeps pets settled. I treat your home like it’s yours — and your pet like they’re paying attention (because they are). I follow instructions closely, keep things clean and orderly, and stay aware of your pet’s behavior and environment at all times. No shortcuts, no guesswork — just attentive, reliable care so everything feels exactly as it should when you return.

“We cannot recommend Angelica enough. She went above and beyond in every way and made us feel so confident that our three cats had the best care while we were away. Angelica is lovely, patient, thoughtful and knowledgeable. She kept our home clean, played with each of the cats, made sure they ate, cleaned the litter boxes and eliminated the stress that comes with traveling when you leave pets behind at home. We feel so lucky to have found her.”

“Jamie was so wonderful with my quirky senior cat Xochi. Thoughtful, attentive and communicative - bonus was their adorable photos with each visit!”

About: I've cared for many cats and dogs, from pit bulls to terriers to English bulldogs. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and oral medication administration. I'm a patient and compassionate pet owner, and I promise to treat your fur babies with the same love and care I would my own. I'm also a graduate music student in case your pet might want to be serenaded by a french horn :) I'm a musician and graduate student at Bard. My schedule changes quite a bit, but I always have a good idea of what my schedule will look well in advance. In addition, I am generally free most mornings, and can often be flexible. I'm very happy to provide your dog(s) with walks, food, brushing, bathing, and medication. I love to play fetch with dogs, go on walks or hikes, visit dog parks, cuddle, practice tricks, or any other enriching activity. With cats, I love to cuddle, play, and practice or try new tricks with treats.

“Linda was such a wonderful sitter for my little Lulu. Usually Lu is a bit crazy after I come back from a trip and she was calm as can be. I attribute that Linda’s warm presence as much as her care.”

About: My care for animals is rooted in my nature. I have spent 28 years loving and caring for dogs, cats, and livestock like sheep and goats. I currently volunteer at the Ulster County SPCA weekly doing dog and cat socialization. I bring genuine passion, care, and patience to each pet that is in my care. I am available for pet visits and walks from 6am to 11am and 8:30pm to 10:30pm during the week. My availability on the weekends is much more flexible. Let’s chat and come up with a plan. With over two decades of animal experience, I know that trust is earned, not assumed. I take time to read each pet’s cues, honor their boundaries, and follow your established routines. Your home environment stays calm and consistent, your dog’s walk stays safe and controlled, and your cat always has the space they need to feel secure.

About: I grew up with dogs, have one now, and am all around a big animal lover. I’m available to care for pets of any age - just let me know what you need! I work remotely from home full time for a tech company and have a lot of flexibility in making my own schedule so I can fit pet care in pretty much whenever needed. I live with one cat and one small dog. I have a fenced in back patio for outside time and access to an expansive green space behind the house for walks and leashed outside time. For drop in visits, just let me know what you need and I’m happy to help!

About: I grew up in a home that always had multiple animals. Whether it was cats, dogs, fish, snakes and plenty more I was always taking care of different animals. Now as I’ve grown older the love for animals has not stopped. Dogs are really the best companions and can understand you more than some humans. The love I have for animals is truly the same love I have for family members. I’ll always make sure they are being well taken care of, fed, running freely or on walks, playing and always loved! Your dog will be treated like my own! My work schedule varies quite a bit, I may need to go into work sometimes & in that case my mother is typically home anyway. Otherwise I am home I have a fenced in area for the doggies to run freely. I have a dog of my own so I know what a dog needs and the love and attention they deserve! They can sleep wherever they’re most comfortable with at my home.
