Pet Sitting in Lowville

“Kate was absolutely incredible! Best petsitter ever! I was so nervous and anxious to have someone take care of my two Pot Bellied Pigs while I was on vacation. I have never trusted anyone to care for them. I reached out to Kate and she came to my house to meet them and discuss their care. One is a piglet and can be skittish and also sneaky to get out of her pen. I wanted them brought into the house each night and Kate safely and securely brought them into the house evening and safely brought them back out to their pen each morning. Every visit she sent me photos and detailed communication of how it went. She even came back for one more visit a few days before I left on vacation (for free) to make sure she was clear on exactly what my expectations were. She had great questions and even brought up things I forgot to mention! I left for vacation 100% confident everything would go fine and it did! When I got home, both of them were so calm and acted like I had never left. No stress whatsoever. Kate’s calm and confident demeanor and her compassion for ALL animals make her an outstanding petsitter and I can’t say enough great things about her!”

“We had a great experience with Diana, and our animals seem to have loved her! We have an old, mostly blind dog, and 2 rambunctious kittens. We really appreciated her communication and he pictures she’d send along of the walks with the dog and the hijinks the cats got into. She watered our plants on the patio and brought in our packages as well. We will definitely use Diana again!”

About: Hi! My names is Maddie. I have been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old. My love for dogs is outstanding and I would love a chance to show you. At the moment I have a free flex schedule due to the fact, I recently moved and do not have a job. I would love to help anyone out who ever needs it I have 5 dogs of my own they are my babies and I can do whatever you need to make you feel comfortable with leaving your fur babies with us

About: As a veterinary student, I feel confident in fulfilling your animals needs. From long term dog sitting or daily walks, I currently have a pretty open schedule. I have extensive experience with reactive dogs and can work with them on their confidence. While not a professionally trained dog trainer, I am happy to work with them while walking them. My schedule is pretty flexible to what your animal needs. I am available to stay overnight if needed. I can give up to 4 walks during the day and give them a long walk up to 30 minutes. I would treat them as my own and make sure they get comfortable with me. I make sure they get a daily long walk as well as potty breaks throughout the day. For boarding, I will make it as close to their normal daily routine as possible.

“I can't say enough great things about Eliza! She made sure that my cats basic needs were met but also did everything she could to provide my cat enrichment during/after her visits. She knew exactly what she was doing to take care of my cat. She went above and beyond with providing me updates and photos. I felt so at ease with her I didn't feel the need to constantly check in on my cat. Eliza is a must use sitter!!!”

About: I have a 13 year old shitzu yorkie who has been with me since I was 9 and I trained him myself. I have a roomy place with lots of places for individual areas. I currently am taking a break from work and have plenty of time to care for your furry friend as needed! Full time availability and plants of room in my schedule for any hour care. I have a dog who can keep your furry friend company but have enough room to separate them if your dog or cat likes their own space!

About: I’ve grown up with animals in my life since I was born and my mom worked at a Vet Clinic for 13 years so I’ve seen my fair share of all sorts of breeds! From little Pugs to giant Cane Corsos! I’m up for anything and happy to help in anyway I can! I am usually free throughout the week especially with a heads up I should have no problems being able to help you out with whatever needs to be done! And I’ll be happy doing it! I have a dog named Motley who is 4 years old! She’s a mutt but we love her so much and she gets along well with other animals. Sometimes she’s a bit excited with new people/ animals but she is crate trained and potty trained so shouldn’t be a problem!

About: With 5 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I provide a comprehensive and compassionate service tailored to the unique needs of each animal. My expertise extends beyond basic care to include specialized skills such as positive reinforcement-based puppy training, helping to establish good habits from an early age. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, including administering medication, providing gentle exercise, and creating a comfortable, low-stress environment. I have experience managing a variety of medical conditions, ensuring your furry family member is safe and well-cared for at all times. My goal is to be a trusted partner in your pet's health and happiness, providing peace of mind while you're away. Each morning starts with feeding, watering, and a potty break for the pets in my care. This is followed by a morning walk or playtime to get their energy out and start the day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I follow individual schedules, which might include specific feeding times for puppies or senior dogs, medication administration, or scheduled walks and potty breaks. The afternoon often includes another round of playtime or enrichment activities, such as puzzle feeders or training sessions, to keep their minds engaged. Evenings are typically quieter, with a final feeding and potty break before a relaxing wind-down. My weekly routine involves a bit more planning. I coordinate with pet owners to schedule walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I also use this time to restock on supplies and keep detailed records of each pet's behavior, eating habits, and health. If a pet is in my care for an extended period, I might schedule a grooming appointment to ensure they're in top shape. My schedule is built around the needs of the pet, ensuring they receive consistent, loving care and that their owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets, whether on my own or a client's, requires a responsible and attentive approach to ensure their well-being. A fundamental aspect is providing a consistent routine, including scheduled feeding times with high-quality, species-appropriate food and fresh water that is always accessible. Regular exercise is crucial for both physical and mental health; this can range from daily walks for dogs to interactive playtime. Environmental enrichment, such as toys, scratching posts, and comfortable bedding, helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. It's also vital to maintain a clean and safe living space by regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Beyond daily care, a thorough pet care plan includes regular grooming, such as brushing and nail trims, and staying up-to-date on veterinary care, including vaccinations and preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and worms. For client homes, clear communication is paramount. It is important for me to obtain detailed instructions regarding the pet's specific needs, routines, medications, and any behavioral quirks, as well as emergency contact information. This holistic approach, combining routine care with attention to individual needs and a focus on safety and hygiene, ensures a happy and healthy life for any pet under my care.
