Cat Sitting in Mahopac Falls

“Jessica took great care of my cat while I was out of town! Excellent communication.”

About: I've been around dogs all my life and I'm a big advocate for the bully breeds. I know how to hold a big strong dog that just wants to say hello. I can keep a steady pace for walks and hold tightly for random pass-by animals. Keeping commands firm and using the proper commands when the unexpected happens is something I excel in because of my experience of working with children. Fifteen plus years working with children ranging from the ages 3-11. I know a dog is part of the family, I have 2 of my own (a cat too!). I've had 10 plus in pet care and 20 plus years in pet ownership. Let me care for your fur-baby. My schedule is very clear for any pet care needs. I was working part time but now I’m looking for pet care as my job. I’m very watchful and observant from years of child care and from my own pets, I want the pets to be safe all the time.

“We’ve booked with Emily several times now. We have extremely shy kitties, and all 3 have really taken a liking to her. Emily is very reliable and communicative. Highly recommend!”

“Kassidy did a wonderful job! She was on time and she played with my pups. She made them feel comfortable and they were very tired and relaxed when she left at night. I’d recommend her to anyone and I will definitely be using her again. She is fantastic.”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. My dog is a very hyper medium sized shepherd mix, I've had her since she was a puppy, so I've been through the whole messy training process. I love dogs and all the walks that come with it. I am a full-time (dorming) college student, but I am fully available Friday evening to Sunday night. I unfortunately don't have my license just yet, but when I do I will be able to pet sit weekdays too. I prefer to pet sit in the client's home if possible. I have a very social and friendly cat, who doesn't mind staying in her little sanctuary if needed. I have a super friendly energetic dog, who is very playful, which can be overwhelming for some animals.

“Emily is a reliable and thoughtful cat sitter. She was great with my difficult kitty and problem-solved a tricky situation with a malfunctioning door lock. Great communication. I would definitely seek her out again.”

“I highly recommend Nicole. She took care of my 3 cats while away for 1 week. She made sure they were all fed and well cared for- sending me video updates. By accident my cleaning lady let them out but Nicole made sure they all came safely home. When I arrived home the place was spotless.”

“As always, Jennifer did a fantastic job caring for our two cats. She provided me with a detailed Rover card with photos each time and reached out if there were any issues. She is excellent with communication, which honestly has been hard to find in a pet sitter. Very grateful we found Jennifer!! Thank you!”

About: Animals are basically part of my DNA. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was a child, and I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals. I’ve also been riding and caring for horses my entire life, which means I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and understanding animal behavior. I have hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to seniors who need a calmer pace and extra TLC. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so pets are never left alone and are part of my daily routine. My home sits on 3 acres of private property surrounded by a state park, which means lots of space for play and long walks or hikes. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets by treating them like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of supervised exercise, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that means extra activity for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency with puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Alexis is reliable and caring. Both myself and my neighbor have had her looks after our pets 😉”

Louise H.

“Erica went above and beyond my expectations. We received photos every day documenting our cat's existence (playing, eating, etc.), which was incredibly reassuring. Erica clearly communicated her progress at each visit. Happily, even though we have an older cat, it was clear that Erica took the time to play with her and give her daily stimulation. She was thorough, affectionate and attentive, and quite reliable. When we came home, our cat looked great! I will definitely seek her services in the future!”

About: I'll make sure your pet has the best time possible in your absence. I just love seeing happy animals and helping them become comfortable, confident, and content❤️ I can also teach almost any pet tricks! And I'll gladly watch any pet, big or small. Both on and off of Rover, walking and training dogs is what I do most for work! So, my schedule is constantly changing to ensure every pet gets proper care. My biggest con is that I may be late because of spending extra time with client's pets, but I try to plan for it wherever possible! If a dog needs 10 more minutes, but my time is already up, I'm not just going to leave. I am very respectful of other people's homes, and always will be. I am not currently offering to pet sit in my home, as my family has allergies.

About: I have cared for rabbits, cats, and dogs over the course of my life. I grew up with a rescued kitten who lived a healthy, active life for 15 years before he developed feline diabetes. For two years, we gave him daily injections to maintain his health as best we could. When I began life outside of my childhood home, I adopted a lion head rabbit that lived long enough to become my children’s first pet. While I was living in Queens, New York, I spent a year dog walking and pet sitting around Astoria and Long Island City. My responsibilities included individual and group dog walks, in-home care for elderly and special needs dogs and cats, cat care, litter box/wee wee pad changing, and feeding. I am currently a stay at home mom and freelance writer, so my schedule is very flexible between the hours of 8am and 3pm while my children are at school. As a cat mom, I understand how important safety is when it comes to animal care. From the moment I walk into the house, keeping your pet safe is my priority. During my time with your pet, I will do my due diligence to make sure your pet is safe and happy from harnessing and leashing, through the walk, and finally my departure. I know the importance of staying alert on walks, constantly taking in the environment for any potential dangers from other animals, people, and vehicles.

“Awesome service”

“Marie is wonderful and wonderful to work with. She loves the animals; they love her. She’s dependable and communicative and every bit as good a fur mom as I am for my dogs and cat.”

Charlotte M.

“Hayley was absolutely fantastic with my dogs! From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals and knows how to care for them. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy and clearly adored her. I highly recommend her and will book with her again!”

About: For most of my life I have had either beloved cats or dogs. Marnie my 12 lb pomchi rescue, she is easy going and can sniff for hours, so we can walk for hours, or enjoy a dog park with your dog. Elderly is fine if they also can walk a fair distance. Animal advocate. I have a flexible schedule, mornings are best, early mornings too. Can take a long walk with my easy going dog. Happy to travel for gas recompenation. Will not be caring for dogs in my home at this time, unless very small/tiny and quiet. I can come to your house happy to travel if for a longer stay.

I also offer limited weekday evening availability after 4 PM with advance notice, as I work full-time during the week. For boarding, Friday drop-offs after 4 PM work best. During school holidays and long weekends, I’m usually home and happy to offer a safe, cozy place for your dog while you’re out visiting family or traveling. Please note I only host one dog at a time, or up to two dogs from the same household. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and specific needs (medication, feeding, anxiety triggers) and follow any instructions to maintain a consistent environment. On walks, I use a secure leash, follow your preferred route, and stay mindful of traffic, other animals, and surroundings to make it safe and enjoyable. In your home, I treat your space with respect, keep it tidy, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority, and I strive to offer them love and care as if they were my own.

“I’m happy to give a 5-star review for Walfredo! We left our three dogs—Bailey, Ellie, and Lottie—in his care, and he was absolutely wonderful with them. He made sure they were well-fed, played with them, and even joked that he “tired them out”—which is no easy task! Walfredo truly loves animals, and it shows. Our dogs loved him right back. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. Highly recommend!”

“Maria took great care of our two cats. She followed all of our instructions and was in constant contact. It was a real relief to have her check in, text, and take pictures while we were away.”
