Cat Sitting in Livingston Manor

“Lindsay is the best. She sat for our kitties & her detailed and loving care is top notch. She doesn’t miss a thing, and we felt completely at ease while out of town. We will definitely be hiring her every time we’re traveling and need kitty care.”

Jillian S.

“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”

“Dallas is excellent....Completely dependable and flexible, easy to get along with and my cat approves!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 11 years. I work as a vet assistant. I am trained to read an animals body language and look for signs of distress. I am a very patient, caring, compassionate and empathetic individual. I genuinely enjoy meeting and caring for all types of animals, and I look forward to caring for yours! (: I do work full time, but otherwise I have open availability. I am willing to work around my schedule to help meet your needs (: I feed them, clean up after them, give them medication if needed, bathe them, walk them as often as needed. If your animal is on a schedule of any kind, it will be cared for accordingly.

About: I have a lot of hands on experience working with animals, working at an animal hospital. I know ways to introduce myself to your furry friends and the best ways to keep them comfortable when your not there. I am a hard working and reliable pet sitter who always puts animals first! I work 4 days a week and my schedule is flexible to make sitting work I always make sure your pet is watched at all times when I’m there. I always ensure dogs are on leash unless in a fenced in area and can crate pets when needed.

About: I have volunteered at a few animal shelters, including Pet's Alive in Middletown, NY. When I volunteered there, dogs were divided into green, yellow, and red. Green meaning that the dog was friendly and easier to handle, red meaning that only certain people could handle them, and yellow was a midway point. Throughout my time there, I was able to work my way up to yellow, which meant that I could work with the dogs that weren't always easy to handle. In my home life, I had a Treeing Walker Coonhound named Annie! We grew up together, and it often felt like she was my second sister. At a very young age, I had to learn how to safely walk a very strong, passionate, excited, and fast hound. Towards the last two years of her life, I made it my priority to make sure Annie was as comfortable as possible. This meant taking her outside often because of her incontinence, as well as helping her up the stairs if she needed help. Since then, I have looked after the dogs of many friends and family, and I'm excited to meet yours! I work from home, and I make my own schedule, so I'm very flexible! The only times I would most likely not be able to care for your pets in over night stays would be the day before a holiday and the holiday (example: Christmas Eve and Christmas.) For those who need a caretaker during odd hours that other caretakers may not be able to fill, my flexible schedule could definitely work! Above all else, I want you and your pets to feel comfortable, safe, and happy with me, so how I care for them depends on their personalities, what you can tell me about them, and what they need to be their healthiest self. I'm very patient and I love how unique all creatures on this earth are - I will have an absolute blast getting to know your furry pals! As much as I'd love to board, I have two cats who grew up with a dog when they were kittens, but it's been almost 7 years, and unfortunately, they have long since forgotten that dogs exist. To prevent confusing my cats, my care will primarily be at your house and property! I have always seen taking care of animals as a huge responsibility, and I genuinely do not take animal care lightly. I also take being in your home and property very seriously, because our homes should be a safe place for ourselves, our families, and our pets.

About: I work in healthcare and provide emotional support with trained dogs. I grew up on a farm with extensive exposure to all animals. Animals are my happy place! I am very flexible, and easy to work with. I can be available at any time of the day. I’m here to follow your schedule! I have a certified emotional support dog who is wonderful with all animals. He doesn’t bark, he is very quiet and peaceful! He would love for your animal to visit.

“We cannot say enough of how Lucy has been there for us when we need a dog sitter. Lucy is incredible!!”

“Amy was a wonderful sitter for our animals. We are so thankful for her help. She was very good at communicating with us while we were away so we knew everything was well at home.”

Elizabeth M.

“Alisa was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Tsubaki. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. After just one visit, Tsubaki was actually smiling when Alisa arrived for her next walk! I also hired Alisa for overnight sitting, and everything went smoothly. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me real peace of mind. I felt completely confident that Tsubaki was in great hands.”

“Thank you for all your help. I'm so glad Nico likes you. He usually doesn't get along with strangers.”

About: Hey there! My name is Marina! So nice to meet you! I have been interested in animal care since I can first remember, and this passion has led me to rehabilitating sick, neglected, abused & injured animals of all shapes and sizes. I can provide care for your every day animals, to your more special needs family pets of all sizes. My care ranges from day old baby chicks to 800 pound pigs or even SOME calm horses if need be! I have had dogs my entire life and have two of my very own that live an incredibly enriched and stimulating life. I know how difficult it is to try to get out of town or away for even a day with pets of your own, please allow me to be a part of your pack and allow you and your family to just that while having immense peace of mind that your loved pets are in incredibly capable hands. I am mostly available on weekends only for pet care. I can be available after 7PM for drop-ins at night if need be. During the week I am fully employed. I unfortunately cannot provide boarding for pets in my own and it is for your own animals safety and comfort. We have a little house- there would not be ample space to guarantee safety of clashing personalities etc. In YOUR home I would treat everything and your pets with the upmost respect. Having a stranger in your personal sanctuary is an incredible responsibility and enormous trust goes into this - which is why I would never take it lightly. What ever instructions you leave for me will be performed; Your pets comfort and safety comes first for me before all else. I understand animals and their environments, their specificities, quirks and special needs.

“This is the third time Logan has stayed with our cats. He is lovely, kind, considerate and the cats barely look up when we come home, the mark of an excellent care giver. You won’t find a nicer pet sitter.”

Heidi G.

“My whole experience with having my cat boarded for the first time was outstanding from beginning to end! I was updated with pictures and status reports of how my cat was doing throughout his stay which put me at ease. He was great and calm and tidy when I picked him up too. I know that he was well cared for!!”
