House Sitting in Lake Katrine

“Lee is the best! He stayed with and cared for our two labradors for a week while we went to Florida. Our girls love him and thoroughly enjoyed their time with Lee. He also kept the house spotless and made sure it was clean for us upon our return. I think the dogs appreciated his musical talents too while we were away. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone in need of a sitter, dog walker, or house stay with their pets. They would be well-loved and cared for with Lee!”

“Robin was great! She was very responsive, Gave regular updates, and my kitty seem to love her. I was much more at ease knowing she was there for the days I had to be away, and felt available my cat was was in capable hands. Would definitely book again, thanks Robin!”

“Marielle was a great dogsitter for our pup! He had some recent GI issues and she was able to administer his meds while we were away, and kept him safe and happy the whole weekend. We appreciated the updates as well. Great houseguest too - our home was clean and the linens were stripped when we got home. Will absolutely be booking her again!”

“Monica was wonderful with our little guy, Tony! She took great care of him and just knew he was in good hands while I attended a wedding. Monica communicated throughout the night which put me at ease knowing he was doing alright. Thank you for watching Tony! I would absolutely recommend Monica :)”

About: I have experience with all types of cats and dogs and critters. I not only work as a pet sitter, but I was an independent rescuer and as a Spay-Neuter advocate for the ASPCA in NYC as well. I can administer fluids and medications (provided the cat isn't feral) and I have experience caring for elderly animals and pets with disabilities. I'm guaranteed reliable, flexible, patient, and kind, and I would care for your babes as I do my own. Part of being a good pet sitter is sensing what the cat and dog need, whether it means extra pets and playtime, or to be given space. i want your pet to be happy and cared for. i love all animals and their happiness, safety and well-being mean everything to me. As a part-time freelancer, pet sitting works well with my schedule. I'm available 8am to 9pm. I am not available for overnights, but I will book extended daytime stays if I am available. Cats and dogs deserve exercise, playtime, fresh meals, clean water, and affection. I will never allow a cat outside or a dog off his or her leash unless requested. You can rely on me to lock the door and keep your pet and home safe while you are away.

“Alexa was incredible with our girls and saved us when a sitter canceled last-minute. She sent the cutest pictures and I could tell my pups LOVED her. We can’t wait to have her back!”

“This was our first pet sit with Emily and it went great! She is super communicative and sent us tons of pictures and updates of our little guy. Will definitely work with her again!”

About: Hello! :) I love animals, dogs, cats, fish, pocket pets, exotic, etc.! I have extensive experience with cats and have been with cats my whole life and I have been told many a times that I am a very fast learner for anything I have not done before. In 2025 I completed the "Pet Sitting, Training, Grooming Microcredential" at SUNY Ulster. The Microcredential included the following classes; Pet CPR & First Aid, Behavior Medicine for Animals, and Restraint and Handling. As of 11/01/2024 I am certified in Pet CPR by RECOVER and ACVECC. And as of 02/23/2025 I have a certificate of Completion in the Fear Free certificate program by Fear Free Leaders in Animal Wellbeing. I am currently a student at SUNY New Paltz and I am usually there around 11am to 3pm 4 days a week (After May I will be available all days and times of the week). When I am not there I live in Kingston with my parents and two cats, Pilot and Trixie. I will make sure your pets get lots of play time while you are away. I can take pets on walks, water plants, get mail, clean up messes, etc depending on what you need. And I have no problem complying with any weird quirks your pets have. (My cats have some very specific games they like). I also like to report back on what we did, anything that is possibly out of the ordinary, and of course I can send pictures!

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for over 25 years, both in my own home and for others. I am diligent with administering oral medication. When I am not caring for animals and house sitting I am a nursing student and child care professional. I will give your fur baby plenty of care and affection! I currently am renting and cannot have pets in my home so it is a truly a joy to be able to spend time with your pet. I am outdoorsy and upon request, I love taking dogs on walks on the rail trail or parks and can provide daily exercise for high energy dogs. I am able to house/pet sit. I am available for walks on evenings after 5:30pm. When I’m not hiking or getting outside I am a homebody and am very available for pet cuddles. I care for pets in their clients home. I feed them, change their water, administer medications, take dogs on walks, and/or change cats litter boxes. I am very active and love being outside so happy to take your dog out on a trail, play with your pet.

“Alice is the best! Professional, responsive and so good with my dog (who is uncomfortable around new people) and cat. Couldn’t recommend her more!!!!”

Polly B.

“Riss was fantastic! I came home to my staff/pit mix being very relaxed and comfortable. It seems like he had a nice time with riss. She was very communicative and shared updates and photos. I highly recommend! Also, the house was spotless, that’s very much appreciated”

Joe G.

“Katherine was a lifesaver for our family. We had a last-minute trip and she did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs, one of which tends to be a little skittish and shy. We received lots of photos and updates and she was respectful of the space. Highly recommend.”

Stephanie E.

“Carolyn was great. She arrived early, was greeted by Bodhi and after a little playing he jumped in her car and off they went for a walk on the rail trail. He really enjoyed the exercise and I’m sure he’ll be glad to see her again.”

Douglas H.

“This was my second time booking Alina. She is very conscientious. This time my cat needed meds. My cat was very well taken care. Thanks Alina!”

SAMANTHA B.

“Cassie is a wonderful sitter! This was our puppies’s first experience with a sitter and she was very communicative and reliable. She constantly sent us picture, videos, and updates so we were able to be at ease the whole time. Will definitely book her again in the future!”

Kayleen T.

“Devin was a great sitter, she took him to the dog park and walk's. She’s very easy to communicate with. I arrived home to a happy and healthy pup. I would definitely recommend her.”

Arnaldo N.

“Very responsive with communication, very loving and attentive to our fur babies!!!”

About: I grew up in a cat household and became a dog mom as soon as I left home. I absolutely love all of the cats and dogs I’ve been fortunate enough to meet in this life. I raised my pup, Grumble, from 3 weeks old until she left this world at 11 years old. I am very familiar with the range of needs a dog will have throughout life, from teething to play to mobility assistance. I'm fully available in the winter as my regular job (gardening) is seasonal and won't be picking up again until later in the spring time. I can be flexible to your pets needs and more than happy to follow any directions you provide me with for their optimal care and contentment.

“We had never used any pet sitting service before and felt very nervous about leaving our dog. From the very first meeting, Laianna put our minds at ease and made us feel very comfortable. She made sure to ask us all about Gracie and we could see that she connected with Gracie right away. Gracie has so much energy and demands a lot of attention but from all the pictures and videos Laianna sent, it was obvious she was well taken care of! Laianna is very reliable, trustworthy and great with animals. We will definitely use her again for any future travel plans.”

I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I’m here to provide loving, reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. You can trust and rely on me to care for your pets and treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority.

When caring for pets in their own homes, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I will follow your instructions closely for feeding, playtime, and any special care your pet needs. I also make sure to spend quality time with them so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I would give my own.
