“David went above and beyond accommodating our pup! A unexpected surgery prior to his visit meant he needed to change the plan a bit but that didn’t phase him and our girl had a great play time. Thanks so much David!”

“Alice was wonderful--very professional and knew a lot about handling a strong willed dog like my Fergus. She was great in communicating with my husband who was working in his office and sending me updates while I was in another country. And most of all...Fergus loved her and would gladly have her as his sitter again! Thanks so much and hope I can use you in the future!”

“Joe is a true professional and animal lover. He took excellent care of my Spinone Italiano and went above and beyond what was expected. My dog immediately felt secure and calm with Joe. I would highly recommend him for anyone in search of superlative dog care.”

“We are so grateful for Emily! What a treasure. Our boys LOVE her. She is so reliable, takes amazing care of our boys and just a lovely person. We are so thrilled to have found her and can give her a great reference. Don’t hesitate!”

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 with my schedule. Weekdays and Weekends are OK. Holidays OK. If you need your cat cared for at a specific time with no flexibility, please mention that when booking. Dogs will be walked and fed at the time requested. ***PLEASE NOTE IF YOU ARE LOCATED OUT OF MY RANGE, I WILL CHARGE AN ADDITIONAL FEE. ANYONE OUTSIDE OF 7 miles of midtown KINGSTON. MEDICATION ADMIN WILL ALSO INCUR AN ADDITIONAL FEE. TOLLS aka Rhinebeck Bridge will also need to be reimbursed. Thanks for your understanding! ****MY FIRST CLIENT IS 8AM 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.
“Sebastian was so lovely with our dog Mango. She was so good at immediately calming and bonding with him. She was a great communicator and on time and reliable! We are sad to see her move away!”

“Katherine responds quickly and is very easy to communicate with, she is punctual, friendly, and compassionate. Otis loved his walk with her and we will continue to have Katherine care for Otis when we need.”

About: I have grown up with pets my entire life since I was a child and now 35 I love them! I've worked on a farm too. Pet Care fits into my life like a glove I have the time for them and I cannot wait to meet your amazing fur babies. I have a big sizeable home which they are free to roam I also have a backyard I can also take them on plenty of walks
“Katherine has been great with my dog Leo. She can get in and out of a very difficult door to open (fiddly lock) and is very self-reliant. I’m sure Leo likes her a lot and I’m happy to have her walk my dog. A+”

“Our dog looks forward to his walk with Melissa every week! She is extremely patient, kind and we always know our pup is in good hands with her. We love that Melissa will walk or through the ball for him depending on the day. Definitely reccomend booking with Melissa!”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life - from family pets, to pets of my own. I love all animals. We do not deserve them, but I do my best to earn their love every day. They are so innocent and deserving of love, and I truly enjoy providing them with all the love and safety they need. I love just simply watching them exist! I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs. I cared for my sweet German Shorthaired Pointer baby (Hunter), who had cancer. Now I shower my young Aussie Mountain Doodle puppy (Selena) with love every day, teaching her to learn and grow, and brushing her constantly so her doodle fur does not get matted and she stays looking beautiful. I have fully potty trained her, she has learned a few commands, and with my guidance, she is getting better and better at walking on her leash. I also have two amazing senior kitties (Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin). They make me smile everyday. They are 14 years young, so they have started to have some slight health decline (cataracts, arthritis, hyperthyroidism), so I have gotten better and better at senior cat care. One of my kitties requires a pill twice a day, so I am an expert at administering pills to cats as well. I am also very good about making sure they have the freshest litter and litter boxes. I clean them daily, empty them completely once a week, and I even wash the boxes out completely once a month. I also house their litter boxes in litter box enclosures to give them privacy and a place of their own to do their business. From caring for my own pets, to feeding the squirrels and birds in my backyard, to saving stray cats - my love for animals knows no bounds. All animals deserve love, and I promise to care for you pets as if they were my own ❤️ I work full-time for a non-profit, but I work from home 3 days a week and only go into the office 2 times a week. This means I have some flexibility in my schedule on week days. On weekends I am wide open! At my home, I have a routine with my animals. They are fed right around the same times everyday, they are given fresh water twice a day, my one cat gets his medicine at the same time twice a day, and they all get a lot of pets and some treats daily as well. My puppy gets at least 2 walks a day, some swim time if the weather is nice, and A LOT of play time with her many toys every day. My cats do not like to play much now that they are older, but I do my best to keep them active with the few toys they show interest in. I have also converted my back porch into an enclosed catio in order to fulfill their dreams of being outdoor cats! In your home, I would utilize my stellar attention to detail in order to carefully follow your guidance. That way I can keep your pet(s) on their usual routine as much as possible so that they are as comfortable and feel as safe as possible. I am also a wonderful and thorough communicator, so I would ensure you were fully aware of everything so that you can feel comfortable as well.
“Rosalie has been so lovely to work with. Our recently adopted dog struggles with separation anxiety and Rosalie has been willing to work with us to slowly build her confidence so that we can eventually leave her overnight. We are very grateful for her help, patience, and support!”


About: I have a loving dog and cat of my own, and they are my best friends. You know those people who come up to your dog when you're out on the town and say "Oh my gosh, can I pet your dog?" That's me. I truly believe that all animals deserve a loving home, and I do absolutely everything in my power to provide my animals and any animals I spend time with the love and care they deserve. As someone who works from home, I am available to check in on your pets throughout the day to make sure they are comfortable, fed, walked, and loved. I think we'd be a great match, so reach out if you need help with your pooch! Thanks! I currently work from home with a sort of make-my-own schedule approach. I am able to leave my desk when I please to walk my dog and yours! I make sure my animals get lots of love, affection, and playtime. Walks and backyard runs are our favorite! We even love going to the dog park.
About: I specialize in attentive, stress-free cat care, with a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs. I’ve also cared for dogs and know how to ensure they feel safe, seen, and comfortable. My calm presence and attention to detail set me apart when it comes to compassionate, reliable pet care. My schedule allows for catering to all of a pet's needs: feeding, grooming, walking, playing and enrichment, medication administration, etc. I can also do multiple drop-ins per day/extended drop-ins for pets that need company throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex, so I would not be able to host your pet in my home, but I have reliable transportation and would love to come to you!
About: I am a artist, and I have been hopping around for different art opportunities. So I am unable to have my own pets now. I love being an Aunt to my friends pets and a pet sitter until I can settle down in my own home. I have years of experience with cats and dogs. I enjoy walking and I am used to picking up poop and cleaning litter boxes. I have experience with giving one small dog oral medicine. I am good at brushing and grooming basics. I enjoy taking pictures of pets. I am a full time professional artist, I am currently an independent contractor and do delivery services to pay bills. My schedule is flexible but I generally start the day at the gym and then work studio and do deliveries during late lunch and dinner time. I weekends sometimes switch to morning deliveries and studio afternoon. I care for pet in client's home by going with the rules the client sets for their home. Always make sure water bowl or fountain is clean and full. I am a clean and organized person and I make sure to leave house as it was when the client left or cleaner. I don't have a home to have pets over to stay unfortunately, currently renting a room in apartment complex that doesn't allow pets.
