Dog Sitting Jericho

About: My name is Danielle and I’ve always been a huge animal lover. When my neighbors got two lab puppies in 2009 I visited them every day after school. Since I didn’t grow up with dogs I basically treated them as my own and taught them commands. This is when my dogsitting journey began at 12 years old. Both dogs had such a big impact on me which led to my passion working with animals. In fourth grade my dream job was to be a dog walker. Since then I’ve pet sat for dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, goats, rabbits, and horses for months at a time in Vermont and Hawaii. I’m a Reiki practitioner and I love offering this healing to animals I care for. I work from home which allows me to provide quality care for your pet. A couple of my favorite activities are walks and hikes. They’re even better when I have a dog by my side. I mainly offer care in my home. The only exceptions for me to sit in your home is if you have an elderly dog or many various animals. Your dog must be able to go up stairs. I ensure the pets get lots of love, snuggles, all the walks that are needed, and extra outside time if this is something they enjoy.

“Had Benjamin check in on my 1 year old cat Ash while I was away for the holidays. He was great with communication and kept me up to date on when he’d be checking on him. Ash, who is usually a very shy little guy, quickly warmed up to him and even got some play time in. Would definitely recommend Benjamin and will keep him in mind for the future!”

“Bailey was kind enough to come on Christmas as a pretty last minute request! Did a drop-in and everything went smoothly! Looking forward to having Bailey help out again.”

“Was able to cover us when our sitter cancelled last minute. Did a great job! The kitties were super happy when we got home. 10/10 would recommend”

“I am very happy with my experience with Clare. She is sweet, kind, and caring. This was my first time leaving my cat Sprite alone and only having stop in visits to be fed and played with. Clare took pictures of Sprite during each visit and made sure she was taken care of. I will definitely hire Clare again!”

“We were exceptionally pleased with Molly’s care for our two pets. We have one cat who likes to be petted than one that doesn’t, and she paid great attention to the one who needs it. The cats litter boxes, the area surrounding them ,in the kitchen where the cat food was were immaculate when we came home. She sent pictures with each visit to let us know how things were.Would not hesitate use her again anytime she was available if I needed pet care”

“Kellianne was great! Bud hadn’t been feeling well and she updated me on how he was doing and sent pictures. Will definitely reach out to her again!”

Maggie M.

“Jenal was fantastic. Detailed, thoughtful notes on her visit, adorable pictures of the pups and she went above and beyond carrying in our fairly heavy package. Thank you Jenal!”

“Kim is a fantastic dog sitter, particularly if you have a golden retriever. She friendly, patient, flexible and was amazing with Oscar. I could tell that she loved doing the drop in visits for him. Her dog Roger is a beautiful and friendly dog and Oscar enjoyed the visits even more when Roger came along. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter.”

About: I have had multiple dogs since I was a baby and absolutely love them! Having had a variety of breeds to grow up with I have learned a lot about dog behavior and safety. I walk my 3 dogs daily and feeding/cuddle time. I have bathed, walked, and watched dogs for neighbors and family. Taking care of a dog is like a kid your dog would get the best care with reliable responses and some cute photos while your gone :) This is my full time summer Job before college in the fall! I am fully available weekdays and weekends. My motto is life is constantly changing so I take same day bookings and cancelations. I am here for your dog and sometimes its unpredictable, my high availability can help take one thing off your plate! Staying with your dog or walking your dog, I would treat it like babysitting my past job, dog in sight at all times, it is properly cared for per owners' instruction or breed. Feeding time will always be done carefully and as instructed. My priority is to make your dog feel comfortable and safe. Playing and attention is not something to be worried about I have been doing that my whole life with my fur babies!

“Jayna was great with my Titan. He was pretty nervous but Jayna spent a lot of time patiently working with him so he would feel comfortable and made a lot of progress. Highly recommended!!!”

“Lilly did a wonderful job caring for our pet Binkley, an elderly free-roam house rabbit! He is usually shy around strangers, but her quiet, gentle, and patient approach had him at ease with her in just a couple of days. She prepared his special food carefully and he actually gained a little weight during our ten day absence. We highly recommend her!”

“Beatrice helped us out last minute with some check-ins during the work week. She always gave us a rover card with pictures and info about the walk/play date!”

“Hailey was flexible scheduling, communicative, and wonderful with our dog Moose! Highly recommend. 10/10 experience and will schedule with Hailey again”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, giving me experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities. As an animal shelter volunteer, I’ve worked with dogs from different backgrounds and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive interactions. I’m active and able to keep up with high-energy dogs while also providing attentive care and companionship. My experience at adoption events has helped me become comfortable handling dogs in new environments and making sure they feel safe and supported. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to adjust my availability around bookings and make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care. At my home or a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and on their normal routine. I make sure they are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention based on their energy level. I prioritize safety, supervision, and creating a calm, stress-free environment. I’m also attentive to each pet’s personality, whether they need extra cuddles, structure, or space.

About: Growing up in rural Vermont, my household was equal parts animals and humans. From an early age, I learned the care and attention that goes into caring for pets from the time they are an energetic puppy to well into their silver years. I’m well equipped to handle potting training, medication feeding, and leash pulling. Fun fact! My first job was as a neighborhood dog walker and my catch phrase was “Lydia B walking” because my last name starts with a B! I'm currently a student and I'm most available during the mornings on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Depending on the distance and public transit accessibility, I could be more available! When it comes to caring for other people’s pets, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Which means making sure they are happy, healthy, and safe even after walk time is over. I understand and fully respect that your pet is part of your home and as such, I will follow every aspect of your (and their) routine. In your home, I will make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure, and I always leave things just the way I found them (or better!). I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality, and I’ll keep you in the loop with plenty of updates, pics, and funny moments along the way. You can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands—and probably having a blast.

“Tess is a rockstar!! We have 3 SHY senior special-needs cats who need all kinds of complicated care. They needed a combination of special diet food / thorough supervision throughout mealtime to ensure everyone gets the right thing, powdered meds mixed with food, transdermal medications applied to the ear, and antibiotics out of a syringe, in addition to all of the typical work that goes into cat sitting. It’s always hard to find someone we can trust with their safety with that level of care needed, but we saw that Tess had experience with senior kitties, administering multiple kinds of medications, caring for feral cats, and her own cats at home. That’s the best you can hope for! True to her word, Tess did a beautiful job taking care of all of their needs, and even went the extra mile to give the last round of several medications when we let her know we were happy to take care of the final day to give her a break. She took extra time to make sure she could establish trust with them first and kept us up to date with everything we needed to know. Somehow, after medicating really shy and medication-averse cats, she left 3 happy, safe kitties after her care. Couldn’t recommend Tess any more highly, and we would be thrilled to have Tess back again any time!!”

About: I have never met an animal I did not love. My mom likes to say that I’ve always loved animals. She remembers me trying to jump out of her arms, before I could even walk, in order to pet a nearby dog. I am a 32 years old and originally from Minnesota. I grew up taking care of a miniature schnauzer named Oreo, who was a wonderful family companion. I had a pet ferret for 6 years named Swarley, who I alone cared for. I have cared for friends and previous roommate’s dogs, fish, cats, rabbits, and rats. I’ve also cared for all kinds of reptiles and amphibians when working at nature centers for 3 years. I have also cared for a neighbors goats and am comfortable around farm animals. I now have a super sweet 8 year old rescue dog named Primrose. If I am lucky enough to get to care for your pet, I will give all of my attention to them and provide the very best care possible. I hope to hear from you soon! I can work around your schedule. Let me know what works best for you! I only need 1 days notice and accept day-of cancellations. I hope we can work together to get your pets what care they need! I am careful to make sure sneaky pets are unable to escape when I come in and out of doors. I always put a leash and collar on any pet before taking them outdoors. I'm used to and meticulous about keeping medications and food out of reach for pets. I am highly engaged with the pets I am watching and observe for any small signs of stress or health issues. I would call you immediately if I noticed something was wrong or off with your pet and I am totally willing to call your veterinarian or take them to an emergency veterinarian, if ever necessary. I can administer medications and make special diets, if requested.
