House Sitting in Hopewell Junction

“We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter Margaret! She took excellent care of my dog, Otto, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well-loved while I was traveling. I really appreciated the regular updates with pictures and great communication—it gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, kind and caring pet sitter!”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. A horse when I was 10 dogs, cats and still have dogs, cats and a horse in my life as of now have no problems with ministering medication to any animal. I am retired. Looking for a hobby that I love. I am available all times of the day seven days a week. It may be so. I have five small dogs of my own with a backyard fenced in and a doggie door for them to go in and out as they please.

“Nicole took great care of my dog on an overnight and I was able to relax and have fun without worrying about anything. She's friendly, dependable, professional and clearly a dog lover! I will absolutely be using her services again.”

“Erik was fantastic! He was punctual, dependable and took great care of my dog Brooklyn who has severe separation anxiety. Will definitely book him again!”

“Jack has been a terrific sitter for our dogs. He shows up exactly when he says he will, which already puts him in rare company, and he stays consistently communicative. We get updates and photos throughout each visit, and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys spending time with our girls. He also takes their “loud greetings” in stride—they give him an earful every time he arrives, and he never flinches. Reliable, responsive, and unfazed by a couple of vocal pups, Jack has been a real find!”

“Stephen is a phenomenal communicator, with humans and pups. He’s very friendly and professional, and is terrific at what he does! Look forward to having him sit for our brood again soon.”

“Amanda was absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. We hired her to stay in our home for three nights to care for our 14 year old senior dog and our 15 year old cat. My wife and I were a little apprehensive at first about having someone we did not know stay overnight in our home, especially with our senior dog, who needs frequent trips outside and is prone to accidents in the house. Amanda completely exceeded our expectations. She went above and beyond in every way, giving both of our pets the attention they needed and carefully following all of our care instructions. She told us she would treat our pets as if they were her own, and she truly did. Our senior dog needs frequent trips outside, some help walking, and is prone to accidents in the house. Amanda handled all of it with incredible patience, care, and professionalism. She made sure he had plenty of potty breaks by taking him out often, waking up early, and staying up late to care for him. When he had accidents, she took care of everything without hesitation, including thoroughly cleaning him up, washing his blankets and bedding, and making sure he was comfortable afterward. That level of care and compassion really meant a lot to us. She also kept our home incredibly clean. In fact, she even vacuumed the living room before we got home and left the house cleaner than we left it. On top of that, she sent us daily updates and texts about both our dog and cat, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Amanda is a true professional, caring, responsible, attentive, and dependable. She was a huge stress relief for us, and we felt so much better knowing our pets were in such capable hands. We will absolutely be using her again on a regular basis for as long as she is available.”

“Tracy is hands down the best sitter I have worked with. She went above and beyond sending me pictures while I was away and took amazing care of my guy Ted. While I would like to keep her to myself I truly recommend Tracy to anyone. Thank you again Tracy.”

“Megan was amazing with the babes! I will definitely be reaching out again”

About: Hi- I have been a dog sitter from a young age for a family with 5 golden retrievers. Unfortunately, they have since passed on as time passes by. As an adult now in a new area I decided to check out this type of opportunity online. I am a complete animal lover and would treat your pet as my own. Showing it affection, attention, & provide with the care it needs while you are unavailable. I also have a mellow adult lab myself that I would be happy to bring for playdates as requested. Rates and availability are TBD as mentioned I am new to the site and do work full time during week. I am available mornings, evenings, & weekends! :) Look forward to seeing what opportunities are in my area. After getting laid off of my job after 13 years I have decided for now I'd rather be around animals & am happy to do so with open availability. Warm weather is coming & I would be happy to either hang out with your pet in your yard or take them for walks. Whatever suits your needs! I am an animal lover & will be excited to treat your pet as my own. I will also treat your home with complete care in your absence.

About: Growing up in a home with two beloved rescue corgis and cats, I learned early on the importance of compassion and care for animals. My family dedicated countless years to fostering dogs in need, primarily from southern areas, which helped me understand the unique personalities and needs of every pet. Currently, I have three energetic rescue pups that I raised from puppies, and this has only deepened my love and understanding of dogs. With years of experience pet-sitting, walking, and fostering, I’ve gained a strong ability to connect with dogs of all backgrounds and temperaments. Whether it’s giving special attention to shy rescues or providing energy-filled playtime, I’m here to ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for in every way. I'm currently a student-athlete at URI and do not have a job, so I have flexibility throughout the day during the week. This allows me to give your pups the outdoor time they deserve, whether it's for a quick walk or a longer adventure. I have plenty of experience walking dogs, and I always stay alert to my surroundings, including other animals and people. Observing your dog's reactions helps me determine the best course of action to ensure their comfort and safety throughout the walk

“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!”

About: My earliest memories feature dogs and cats, and they have been in my life since the age of three. Frankly, it's difficult to imagine my life without them. I have been taking care of my own, family and friends furry companions from the age of ten. I'm here for the snuggles, pets, playtimes, walks, potty breaks, litter changes and the quiet times too. From tiny, eight week old puppies, prime adults and elderly dogs that require a different kind of care and patience, to rambunctious kittens and their chill adult counterparts, each animal has a personality of their own; I'm here for them all. When people ask if I'm a cat or dog person, for me there isn't a choice; it's both! I've had experience with: - House and command training puppies from the age of eight weeks and up - Daily walks, usually between 30 min minimum to 2-3 hours; I love walks too, so it's a win-win 🐾 - Administering oral and topical medications to canines; mouths, eyes, and ears - Playtime! Or just keeping them quiet company, if that's what they prefer. - Dropping in and checking on our feline babies: changing litter boxes, feeding, play and keeping them company. I love spending time with cats of any size and stage. I am currently working part-time in food/hospitality, and begin seasonal event work in the springtime so my schedule is flexible. Currently, I have flexible availability for walks, drop-in visits or house-stays on Monday, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. When dropping in for a visit at a client's home, I always make sure to keep the space secure and clean for our four-legged friends. Pet owners can rest assured that their dogs will be engaged with and supervised, and cat people will know that their kitties are in a safe, calm environment. Animals are special to me, and I aim to treat them all as if they are my own.

“Iliana took great care of our fur babies while we were away for the week. 2 of our 3 pups had to take medication and Iliana was very helpful in making sure they were administered as needed. I also received updates and photos during our time away, assuring they were having fun and being well taken care of. We came back home to happy pets!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 10 years and have experience with all kinds of pets, from large dogs like German Shepherds to small terriers, cats, kittens, and even fish. I’ve cared for energetic, shy, and senior pets, including those with specific diets or unique needs. I’m very adaptable, patient, and genuinely love animals, so I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m a college student, so my schedule is pretty consistent during the week. My busiest days are Tuesdays (8 AM–4 PM) and Wednesdays (10 AM–4 PM). On Mondays and Fridays, I’m only away from 10 AM–2 PM, and Thursdays I’m gone just from 11 AM–12 PM. Outside of classes, I’m very flexible and able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, and care. I also work part-time at a country club, but it’s currently the off-season, so my schedule is mostly focused on school. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have two friendly pets of my own, so I’m very used to maintaining a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and stick to their usual routines. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions and make it a priority to understand each pet’s specific needs, habits, and personality. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, litter box or potty routines, and any special care instructions. If I’m ever unsure about something, I always ask to make sure I’m doing exactly what’s best for your pet. I’m very patient, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I truly care about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Kimmie was outstanding! Would highly recommend. She took wonderful care of our senior pup and 2 cats. One of our cats normally hides from everyone but came out for Kimmie and even got a little pet! We also got photo updates which we appreciated! Thanks again Kimmie!”
