Dog Sitting Jefferson

About: Taking a break from being a pet foster to pet sit again. I was a vet tech for 8 years and I have owned pets for 30 years. I can administer any medications needed. I will also watch dogs that have behavioral issues and I have no breed restrictions. My schedule provides the ability to watch puppies and provide them with the frequent play and bathroom breaks they need. I can also take your pet to any appointments they may have while you are out of town. I am unable to watch pets in my home. I will take your dog on hikes with me if you want or will take them on a stroll in your neighborhood. My work allows me to work from home so when I am pet sitting, I am able to spend a lot of time with your pet. When I am taking care of someone's pet, I treat them as if they were my own. I know that keeping their routine helps to minimize any stress of their owner being away.

About: Over 13 years of experience loving on dogs, including young pups, seniors, and special needs. I think it's an honor and privilege to take in another's dog and am available most weekends and during the week to gladly help. There's plenty of room in my house and a very secure fenced yard to play. I spend a lot of time socializing at the dog park and try to take my dogs out for a walk twice a day. There are many toys here for dogs to enjoy and I will only feed them what I'm asked. I also have many years of experience giving medication to dog(s) if needed. I have two very loving, submissive, happy dogs that welcome the company and are current on all vaccinations. I'm happy to do a trial run in a neutral location if you're interested or you're more than welcome to come over and take a look at the premises. My dogs are allowed on the beds and furniture, however, I'll respect your wishes if your dog(s) aren't. I currently work semi-part time, however, only live about 1 mile from work. I don't like leaving my dogs alone for any length of time as they're my first priority. The longest stretch I'm gone is around four hours. However, I do have a live video and audio feed so I can keep an eye on the dogs and talk to them. While your dog(s) are staying at my place I will send pics and video as I think it's important for you to see what they're up to while you're away and get some peace of mind :). I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your dog(s)! I'm available for boarding and house sitting on weekends and weekdays. I have a fenced yard and two friendly, playful dogs to keep your dog(s) company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will respect any of your wishes, including following through on training commands.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and pet owner. I specialize in both dog and cat care from training and exercising, to feeding and brushing. I am a proud owner of several huskies and a Siamese cat currently. I am a teacher during the day during the school year but have evenings free and any time on the weekends. I’m available most anytime during the summer months. I am a runner and a dog sport enthusiast. I frequently engage in urban mushing with my huskies. I can run or walk your dog and I am also skilled in basic dog obedience skills and pet care. I enjoy interacting with pets in ways to keep them active and happy.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a teen. I love walking and have experience with reactive, shy, and energetic dogs and cats. I have been referred time and again for my reliability and individualized attention to each animal I encounter. I have a very flexible schedule and I am looking to fill my time and energy with extra pet support for anyone who's in need! I am happy to walk in your neighborhood, take your pup for a hike and just hang out at home for the nervous or senior dogs. I can work with your routine and your pets individual needs.

“Nadiya is top-notch, absolutely fantastic! We have a very special situation with two senior girls and a new puppy and it’s quite the juggle as everyone has their own special needs and need their space. We were very hesitant about asking someone to take this on but after meeting Nadiya, our girls took right to her And she handled everything with such responsibility and focus that we were 100% at ease having her in our home caring for our girls. We can’t say enough about how well she took all of our direction and followed everything to a T and her communication was so prompt and appreciated. This was beyond a normal pet setting situation as we were asking a lot and she went above and beyond our expectations! So thankful we found her and Hope to use her services again in the future!”

“Savanna was wonderful with our cats, as always! She gave them lots of love and affection, and also took care of their basic needs while we were away. We appreciate Savanna’s flexibility in following their high maintenance diet. Savanna sent lots of great pictures of our cats too. Thanks a ton Savanna!”

“Alice cared for my rats while I was away. I am very happy with the level of care she provided to them. I will definitely trust her with my rats again in the future.”

“My dog had an unfortunate accident in his crate. (so sorry about that ), but Payton handled it like a total pro. Super calm, super kind, and went above and beyond to clean everything up. I came home to a happy pup and a clean house!”

Shanna U.

“Katie was great! She was very quick about responding and scheduling a time for a meet and greet, and I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her care. They're very shy and like to hide, but Katie managed to get pictures of them each time she dropped in. She was very kind and professional; I would definitely recommend her! :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the moment I could walk and talk. I’ve been called the dog whisperer by many friends, family, strangers. I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. I will make sure your pup is well cared for and loved! I currently dont have a job so im pretty much free to help whenever you need! I do have a 5 month old baby that may or may not come with me. I’ll take your dog on walks around the neighborhood! If that’s what they’re into of course. If not, I’ll make sure we get some quality time inside and outside either playing or cuddling. I’ll make sure your pup gets the right amount of food and water.

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting with cats as a kid and later helping with my mother-in-law’s Jack Russell terrier and Siberian husky, as well as my own 100 lb English Lab. During my five years as a rural letter carrier, I earned the nickname "the dog whisperer" for my ability to befriend even wary farm dogs on my routes. Since then, I’ve looked after a mix of local pets, including a reactive Lab-Shepherd and a few energetic pit bull mixes. I’m patient, calm, and consistent, and pets trust me quickly. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible schedule while I pursue my Master's in Behavioral Health. I value structure and routine, which makes it easy for me to keep pets on their normal schedule. Spending time with animals is grounding and rewarding. It balances the intensity of my studies and keeps my days centered on care, calm, and connection. I provide attentive and responsible care for pets, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and overall well-being. In my care, I ensure that feeding schedules are followed, environments are clean and secure, and that pets have appropriate stimulation through play or companionship. I maintain open communication with pet owners, report any health or behavioral concerns promptly, and adapt my care routines to each pet’s unique needs and temperament. My experience in customer service, time management, and careful attention to detail ensures a reliable and trustworthy environment for all animals under my supervision.

“Amanda is such a gift. Communication is great and the pets are so well cared for. I don't know what we would do without her!”

About: I love working with dogs and taking them out on walks. I love training dogs (walking on leash, no pulling/sit/stay, no darting when door opens). I'm pretty flexible. My current work schedule allows me to be off by 3pm-4pm on most week days and I'm free every weekend. Just let me know if you have any questions. I have a fully fenced back yard and a friendly Silver Lab. I have extra crates, dog cots/elevated dog beds, treats and food if needed. Side note, I also have a Flemish Giant rabbit (Pistachio), he loves dogs but has his own room for his private space.

“Vanessa went above and beyond for us and our kitties 🐱 We initially had a mishap with our smart lock (an issue on our end) and she went out of her way to help us problem solve and make sure our boys were taken care of. She gives in depth updates and pictures each visit and follows any directions to a t. You can be sure with Vanessa your fur babies will be taken care of and loved on 😊”

“Nessa did an exceptional job taking care of my kitties!!! I will definitely use her in the future. The cats were very happy when I returned home. ?”

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds for years. I’m able to walk, bathe, and snuggle your pets . I will give them all the love while you’re away. I am a homemaker with free availability, I am usually home meal prepping or tending to the garden. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs. I have a home with a fenced yard in NW Albany. I have two doodles in my home. We spend a lot of time outdoors especially in the morning. I involve them in the afternoon activities as well when I go out to garden. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and are given throughout the day.

“Annie goes above and beyond with pictures, communications, and loving on our pets. Our cat and dog love having her and so do we!”

“We’ve booked dog walks/drop-by visits with Erin several times now and we always know our dogs are in good hands with her. She’s been super reliable and wonderful with our pups every time! She’s the best!”

“Kerri did a great job with my two cats while I was gone for a week for work. She’s stopped by once a day to feed them and make sure they had water. She scooped their boxes too which is a blessing if you’ve ever had cats and been gone too long. I got pictures every day which helped put me at ease that they were being well cared for.”

About: I have three dogs of my own, two being Bull Terriers. If you are familiar with the breed, you understand I have great patience :) I am currently available most days as I am in a career change and enjoying my time reconnecting with my own animals and my home. I can care for your pets in your home. With three dogs at my home, it is not feasible for other dogs to visit. I am available for walks and multiple drop-ins throughout the day.
