Fantastic help, she watched our boys while we were out of town and made sure to keep us in the loop! She gave medicine (to cats!), swept, and scooped litter. What I appreciated most was she took some initiative while we were gone and ensured our faucet was dripping during cold snaps. Could not recommend more highly, your pets will be well looked after.

About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for others beloved pets. My experience ranges from dogs, cats, horses, cows and many more. I love to care for seniors as well as puppies/kittens. I have a lot of experience caring for animals with extra needs such as medications or mobility issues. I am currently studying to be a veterinary technician and can help with giving medications (orally or injections), nail trims, ear cleanings or shaving mats. I am currently working part time but I am available almost everyday so my schedule is pretty flexible to make sure your pet gets the care they need! I have one friendly dog who is 4 and is pretty calm loves to play with new dogs though. I care for your pets as if they are my own. Every pet deserves lots of love and attention especially when their favorite person isn’t around.

If perusing rover for care of your conpanion(s)? Stop here ! Joanne came by twice to keep our pups company with walks and play , as well as feeding them dinner . The fabulous shared photos share that ,and give such peace in absense that it’s not a second thought on ‘hope they are alright ‘ I will most definitely be reaching back to her when our adventures can’t include the pups !

About: Hi I’m Abby! I’m so excited to take care of any animals, big or small! I actually have a little experience with dog training through school, as well as taking care of my own pups! I have taken care of cats and dogs basically my whole life, and as a college student I miss my animals a ton! I would love to take care of any animals as needed! I’m currently a college student at Farmingdale State so my hours vary. I would be free early in the morning before 9:00am, in the afternoon my schedule will vary but I am generally available anytime from 12:00-5:00, in the evening anytime after 8:00. Since I am in college my schedule will always change depending on what you are needing! Since I am in college I am unable to board any dogs at the moment, but i am able to care for your dogs in any way needed. This would include stop in visits, going on daily walks, or even over night stays. Whatever service is needed I will be able to accommodate with whatever needs you have.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, so animals have always been a natural part of my life. Whether it's a bouncy puppy who needs extra patience and play, or a houseful of pets with different personalities, I'm completely in my element. I'm experienced handling high-energy dogs and juggling multiple pets at once — keeping everyone happy, safe, and on their routine is something I genuinely enjoy. Pet owners can feel at ease knowing their fur babies are in the hands of someone who treats them like my own. I'm attentive, reliable, and will always keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing! I'm a teacher so until June 26, I can only do from 3:30 on during the week and then free on weekends. After June 26th I'm only working part time 8-11am Tuesdays and Thursdays so I'm available anytime after that! I am willing to bring pets to my moms if needed. I have an apartment and an animal of my own so my moms would be the better option. She has a quiet/comfortable home and a decent sized yard!

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including my own pup. I’m patient, loving, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and routine. From walks and playtime to cuddles and calm supervision, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time to spare for your pets 💕 I am looking for full time so my availability is scheduled to change. I treat every pet like family and always put their safety and comfort first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and relaxed in my care. I can follow any instructions you provide including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and cuddle time. My goal is to create a stress free, positive experience for your pet while keeping you updated every step of the way.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats! Very familiar with both big and small breeds. We have a 6 year old yellow lab, Bodhi, who is extremely friendly and obedient. We could easily give lots of love and attention to some more animals!! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to two kids. We’re home a lot, always out in our backyard playing. My weekly routine revolves around them and their school schedules, but for the most part I am at home. I have a large fenced in backyard in a safe neighborhood. We have motion sensor lights and camera in both the front and backyard. We also have baby gates up all around the house with garbages and cabinets all baby proofed as well! Super safe environment, nothing unsafe they can get into. We can crate or just separate and give them their own space with baby gates. We also have a nice cool finished basement that’s set up like a spare bedroom with king size bed and tv if that’s more their style :)

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need a slower pace and extra attention. I take a calm, reliable approach and focus on each dog’s individual routine, safety, and comfort. What sets me apart is my peaceful, low-stress home in a quiet country setting in the town of Bleecker inside of the Adirondack Park, where dogs receive one-on-one attention, consistent care, and plenty of space to relax. Your dog will be treated like family and cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m always home and structure my days around consistent feeding times, walks, play, and downtime, so dogs always have attention and companionship. Living in a quiet country setting allows for a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of space to relax and enjoy fresh air. I keep a predictable routine while adjusting to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s daily walks, enrichment, or quiet companionship, caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I live in a quiet country home with plenty of outdoor space. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs are always supervised and taken outside on a leash so they can safely explore and enjoy the fresh air. Safety is always my top priority. Please let me know if your pup is off-leashed trained, so I may work with them after they are comfortable on the property. Dogs in my care will also have the companionship of my friendly corgi, Ginger, who is well-socialized and enjoys being around other dogs. The newest addition to my household is Nori, a corgi puppy. She currently has a lot of energy and is in training, doing very well. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs, and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Your dogs and my dogs are allowed on the couch and the bed. We love to snuggle up!

About: Hi, I’m Kessiah! Your pet’s new best friend!! With over 10 years of experience caring for animals, I bring genuine love and patience to every pet I meet. I grew up with cats and have shared life with my dog since she was just 9 weeks old—so I understand what it takes to care for pets at every stage of life. In addition to personal experience, I’ve worked at a doggie daycare, which gave me hands-on experience managing dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy senior, or a sassy cat, I know how to make them feel safe and loved. I offer dependable, attentive care—whether that means daily walks, overnight stays, or just some company while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of pics and check-ins so you never feel far from your furry friend. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to get to know you and your pet! I am available for boarding 7 days a week, overnight stays and drop-ins available 7 days a week as well (depending on location) and weekends with no restrictions. In my home: At this time, I am only accepting cats for boarding. I do have a dog who gets along well with cats. Because they will be unfamiliar with each other, I will never leave them together unaccompanied. If your kitty is afraid of dogs or has a general distain for dogs, I can and will keep them separated! In your home: Your home, your rules! While you're away, I will do my best to stick to your pets everyday routine.

We have been using Amanda now for close to a year for drop in visits for our cat from time to time. She is always there at our scheduled time and know that our boy will be taken well care of. Our boy is very happy when she is there and I can tell by the pictures she sends me that he is very comfortable with her. I would highly recommend her.
