House Sitting in Johnstown

“Cassandra watched my 8 year old Basset Hound and 10 year old pit mix at my house over Memorial Day weekend. She walked them twice a day and made sure to keep me updated the entire time! I’ll be recommending her to my friends and family as well.”

“Rebecca was amazing! She was so communicative with us. She sent so many pictures of our fur baby while we were gone and was beyond thoughtful. We will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have experience working for a boarding kennel where I routinely walked,played,fed,and overall took care of dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am also majoring in canine training and management at suny cobleskill! I’m currently a college student with a different schedule everyday I am unavailable during the following times… Mondays- 11 am- 2:50 pm Tuesday- 8:30 am- 11:50 pm Wednesdays- 10 am- 11:50 am Thursday’s- 8:30 am- 9:20 am and 4 pm- 4:50 pm Fridays- 10 am- 3:50 pm I am free at all hours during the weekends. I will not be able to care for pets in my home since I am living on-campus. Hopefully in the future that will be able to change!

“Wang took great care of our two pups for multiple days while we were away on vacation. He provided us with multiple photos and updates each day, and asked questions when he wasn’t sure on something. He is a very caring person and was truly so very kind to our dogs. We will use him again in the future, for sure. Totally recommend him for pet/house sitting.”

“Molly watched our mini golden doodle, Molly, this past weekend and she was great! She was very responsive, kind, and communicative. She was great at sending pictures and kept us updated! We will definitely be using her again! Highly recommended!!!”

“I was introduced to Shanna 2 years ago and cannot express the gratitude I have for her being in our life! I have a 2 year old Charcoal English Lab and he adores her and so excited when her vehicle pulls in the driveway! He’s my baby and these words speak volumes to the confidence I have that he is well cared for and loved when I can’t be with him. Shanna has a key to my home (trustworthy) for the occasions when I am working long hours, she has been accommodating when I reached out on short notice too. We reached a new level where on the evenings I conduct classes in my home she comes prior to class, I hand her my keys, she loads Miggy into the Jeep to spend a few hours at her house with the pups. I have been at her house with my pup for “puppy playtime,” and her neighbors dog begins hollowing (4 year old boxer) because he wants to play too. She laughs, grabs the keys for their home and before you know it there are 5 dogs running in her yard! Trustworthy, Reliable, Loving, Respectful and Responsible! I highly recommend.”

“Caitlynn was absolutely fantastic with our two dogs. Our one dog is very elderly and needs a lot of attention, the other dog is a mastiff rescue and very shy. She was able to give the dogs excellent care while also being aware of their needs and limitations. She kept the house clean and we would absolutely hire her again.”

“Michael did a great job making Alva and Smudge feel comfortable! He kept us updated throughout his stay with texts and photos, which we greatly appreciated. will definitely book again!”

“Arissa watched my two shepherd mixes while I was out of the country. She has a large yard that is fenced in for the dogs to run around in and also has a pet friendly home where dogs are welcome on furniture and in all rooms. She has three dogs of her own that are very friendly and got along great with my two pups. During the stay she frequently sent videos and photos to my dad and I. I was very thankful for the care she provided to my dogs and it was relieving to know that they were in such good hands when I was on the other side of the world.”

“Kevin is a fantastic dog sitter. We have three strong-willed Cardigan Welsh corgis. They and Kevin took to each other immediately. He is a very calm presence, and I think that's a trait they appreciate. We felt very comfortable leaving our canines and our home in his care and would recommend him without reservation.”

About: I will take care of your pet like it's my own. I will give plenty of care with exercise, discipline and affection. I have some past experience working as a vet assistant and enjoy going for walks and helping others including dogs and getting their needs met too. I started dog walking and pet sitting when I had children. Now that they are a bit older, I am working more full time, but still would like to help care for animals when needed and fits in a busy mom schedule! I have some flexibility but look forward to routine walks for those that work long days and can't be there for their beloved pets and care enough to provide a pet sitter to help give their pets what they need to have a happy life too! I'm reliable, trustworthy, and respectful of your home. I’m currently working part time during the day and school year, so I can provide afternoon, evening, or weekend services to walk dogs or take care of cats or other pets in your home. I have a fenced yard, but I’m currently not able to have dogs come stay at my home, but willing to come to your home where they are most comfortable and can do several visits or an overnight if necessary.

“Rachelle has been wonderful with our fur family! We didn’t worry at all during our vacation. Getting photos each day was a plus & we could tell that they were happy! The house was immaculate when we arrived home! She’s an outstanding person and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”

“If I could give Heidi more than 5 stars I would! I was kept up to date every single day and Heidi ensured the pups were both taken care of as if I never even left! She went above and beyond while I was gone for the 10 days. The dogs made a huge mess of my couch but Heidi immediately called me and then went ahead and cleaned up the mess. The dogs were very well taken care of and she sent at least one picture a day sometimes more. I would recommend getting Heidi to take care of any pet! She was an excellent communicator and both the dogs loved her! Will for sure go to her first for any pet sitting needs!”

About: Positive reinforcement and teaching go a long way. Where pet love comes alive and the fun doesn’t never ends. Teaching essentials to a successful bond with your pet from the heart. I currently work full time overnights (10-12hr shifts) with plenty of free time to care for your fur babies. As someone who work long hours myself I find it crucial that pets stick to a routine (feeding, training , walks etc). I have a beautiful friendly fur baby at home to keep your pets company. Extra crates, bowls etc if needed. I have a small yard without a fence. I take my dog for walks twice day. As well sometimes caring for my friends or neighbors pets.

“I highly recommend Carolyn to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be reaching out to them again for any future needs.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats since I came home from the hospital. My mom has run a rescue since before I was born and now that I’m older I have become assistant director of the program. I have trained many dogs and love to give any animal the love they deserve. I am a recent high school graduate who is taking a gap year to work on training my Service Dog, during this year off I am going to spend most of my time at home. Much of my time at home is spent caring for our rescues, such as feeding, letting out, changing pee pads and grooming. I have one dog of my own who’s an absolute love bug and loves to play with others that if you were okay with I’d love to bring with me when I care for your animals. I love training pups and have successfully trained 3 in the basics.

About: I've grown up with dogs - Great Danes. Have taken care of several breeds through out my years both house sitting and drop ins. I understand their body language and will take the time to let them warm up to me to make sure everyone has a great experience. I do currently work full time, but my schedule is flexible and can be available for early morning walks and feeds, evenings and overnights. And most weekends from Friday night through Monday Morning. As a house sitter or drop in care taker for your pet the goal is to take care of them just as you would. Given whatever direction you as the pet owner supply I can adapt to just about any pet and their needs. I am typically over cautious, if something about their body language is a no-go I will leave them alone after making sure their needs are met.

“LAUREN WAS truly a 5 star. She gave Tess all the love that she needed and after 1 day Tess was warmed up and enjoying her time with Lauren. She did 100% everything that we discussed and planned out. Walks,Meds, play time and sent updates and photos every day and at night as well. Very responsible and my house was as neat and clean as when we left it. This was a 4 night /5 day stay in my home.”

“Roxanne has watched my 100lb lab Watson at her home and mine. She is so thoughtful and considerate and consistently sends picture updates and shows so much empathy and compassion for my sweet boy.”

“Adriana was accomodating and caring. I was pleased with her attention to our little man. Thank you!”
