House Sitting in Mahopac Falls

“Courtney house sat our two pups and was everything we could have hoped for. Prompt, communicative, and most importantly took great care of our dogs and our home!”

“Maria was great. She took care of two very picky dogs and made them feel safe and comfortable. One is an old rescue Chihuahua mix who is very sensitive to noise and any moving objects. The other was an another rescue Cocker Spaniel who is fearful, timid, very nervous and anxious (who is on anti-anxiety med). Both of them are very picky when it comes to humans. They only accept and like very particular people who have good and calm energy. Maria passed their test! They seemed to have liked her so much that they became her velcro dogs by the end of fifth day. Thank you very much for taking good care of them.”

“Stan was very relaxed when we returned from our trip! Nicole was undeterred by the bad weather.”

About: I currently have two dogs one is 5yrs old and the other a 2yr old. I also go to the dog park daily so I am always meeting and spending time with other types of dogs. I am currently in graduate school to become a Social Worker and I have classes one day a week. This allows me the flexibility to pet sit overnight, and to work during weekends. * I want to note that I will be on break from December 11th(2025)-January 15th (2026), meaning I will have complete availability as I will have no classes or internship during that period To ensure safety I will make sure to know all the safety measures in your home and maintain these measures while you are away. Personally at my home we have a fenced in yard and before letting my dogs out I makes sure all the gates are locked we also make sure all doors to bedrooms are closed before leaving to ensure our dogs do not eat anything that could harm them.

“Caitlin was great! She was so attentive and sweet to our Chico bean! She was communicative, thorough, and gave our boy such great attention while house sitting with Chico. I’d absolutely use her services again & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great care taker for their fur babies!”

Patrick M.

“Alexis is great all around. She is a pleasure to interact with, responsive, and sends timely updates. I could tell that all four of my girls and my pup felt comfortable with her and were well cared for. I would strongly recommend Alexis and look forward to her sitting my pack in the future!”

Felipe R.

“Grace was amazing! She took great care of all of our pets. We will happily hire her again in the future!”

“Jason was great with our animals. He sent some photos and kept in touch letting us know how everything was going and how sweet our pets were for him. We hope to be able to book him again in the future.”

Rob S.

“My dog just went through a few stressful events that has made him very anxious around strangers but he was very comfortable with Joe. We did a meet and greet before booking he did not show signs of anxiousness; in fact he took to Joe immediately licking him on his face. Joe then watched him all day on back to back days over the weekend which went very well. My dog was relaxed all day and did not have any issues. Joe is very flexible, priced extremely reasonable and I look forward to using him again in the future.”

About: I’ve had 6 dogs in my lifetime and of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I have never met a dog that I haven’t gotten along with and have been caring for mine and my friends dogs and cats when needed since I was 10. I trained each one of my dogs and take great care to respect them as the magnificent boys and girls they are. I really love animals of all kinds and meeting new ones is always the highlight of my day, and I look forward to meeting more! I’m currently applying to graduate school and studying for standardized testing, so my schedule can be as flexible as needed to accommodate for yours or your pets needs. I’m quite active with my dogs so I’m more than happy to deal with any energy levels in animals. That being said my care revolves around keeping your pets as happy as possible, and if you are ok with it I have a fully fenced in garden and three lovely dogs to keep them company!

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.

“Erica was very communicative and a delight to work with. She did a great job with an anxious dog with separation issues and I’m really grateful she was available. Would definitely book her again!”

Daisy A.

“Lana is amazing!! She watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat while we were away for a week. She gave them tons of attention, was thoughtful with her care and pet stimulation, and very responsive. She also left our house clean and went above and beyond in caring for our space. We can’t wait to book Lana again”

About: I've been taking care of dogs for over 12 years. And love them like they was family. And I watch all my friends and families dogs. I also work for wag. I have open availability for boarding. My favorite animal is a dog i always wants to be with dogs. ( i use to own cats too incase any feline friends need. I had 4 dogs growing up and as a child it was my job to care for them. When my parents sold the house because of their split they split the dogs

“Collin and Hayden were great! They met us a few days before and our dog Leti loved them. I showed them around the home and our usual dog walk route, and they arrived promptly at the appointed time. I received photos of Leti being all happy throughout the day, and when I came home Leti loved them so much, she jumped up to give them full face licks of joy! I would happily book them again and recommend them to anyone else. As the parents of two dogs themselves they really know how to take care of dogs and make them feel all the love.”

About: I’ve taken care of my childhood dog from puppy to senior. I enjoyed training and grooming my puppy and making my senior dog a power bowl. I am a very active person - a hiker, marathoner, boxer, and cyclist, I can exhaust your furry babies however they want! And I particularly have a good sense of reading animal behavior, meaning if your dog needs a therapist, I am a very good listener;) I currently work flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to give your furry babies attention any time of the day. Boarding, walking and house sitting are all welcome weekdays or weekends. Boarding: I am in a 2bd condo with balcony without any pet in a quiet neighborhood. I am walking distance to a lot of trails (paved and non-paved) that your dog can take advantage of. Sitting: tell me your pet’s routine, I will be accountable!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for many years. While living in England, I helped care for a Golden Retriever, and later, in Spain, I cared for a Yorkshire Terrier. After spending over 12 wonderful years with my own Golden Retriever, Kobi, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog like family. Kobi was my adventure partner and best friend. Together, we explored hiking trails, beaches, kayaking trips, road trips from Maine to Florida, and countless daily walks. He showed me how important exercise, enrichment, routine, and companionship are for a happy dog. For over five years, I also organized dog hikes throughout Westchester County, NY, and Fairfield County, CT. These adventures gave dogs the opportunity to exercise, explore, socialize, and enjoy time outdoors in a safe and structured environment. In addition, I have professional experience working in a commercial dog daycare, where I supervised groups of up to 30 small and medium-sized dogs, as well as puppy groups of up to 7 puppies under 4 months old. This experience taught me how to read canine body language, recognize stress signals, manage group dynamics, and provide safe, attentive care. My approach combines practical dog experience with a calm, holistic mindset. I am certified in Reiki and Emotion Code energy work and believe dogs thrive when they feel safe, understood, and respected. While every visit focuses first on your dog's physical needs, I also pay close attention to their emotional well-being and comfort. I specialize in one-on-one care for puppies, seniors, and friendly family dogs that thrive with individualized attention, enrichment, companionship, and exercise. My experience is strongest with Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Doodles, Cavaliers, and similar companion breeds that benefit from individualized attention, enrichment, exercise, and companionship. Services I offer: • 60-minute drop-in visits • Dog walking • Adventure walks and hikes up to 2 hours • Puppy visits and enrichment activities • Overnight pet sitting in your home • Limited home daycare and boarding for approved dogs I believe many dogs are happier with personalized care rather than large-group environments. Whether your dog enjoys a quiet walk, a hiking adventure, puzzle games, puppy enrichment, or simply companionship while you're away, I tailor each visit to their individual needs. For home daycare and boarding, I intentionally keep things small and personal. I currently do not have a dog of my own and only accept one guest dog at a time, two dogs from the same family, or up to two compatible puppies. This allows me to provide close supervision and individualized attention. My home includes a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I live in a two-family home, and my apartment is located on the second floor, so dogs should be comfortable using stairs. A playpen is available for puppies and young dogs who benefit from additional structure and rest periods. For the safety and comfort of everyone involved, I require a meet-and-greet before accepting any new client. This allows us to make sure your dog is comfortable with me and that we are a good fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am self-employed as a bookkeeper and real estate agent, which allows me to work primarily from home and maintain a flexible schedule. While I occasionally leave the house for appointments, errands, or property showings, I am able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. This flexibility allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, companionship, and close supervision for dogs staying in my home. I provide a safe, calm, and personalized environment with plenty of individual attention. My home has a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and I live just a 5-minute walk from wooded trails for walks and adventures. Dogs have access to a comfortable sofa, toys, and puzzle games for enrichment and mental stimulation. I live in a second-floor apartment, so dogs should be comfortable using stairs. I only accept 1 dogs at a time or 2 from the same family to ensure each dog receives plenty of supervision, exercise, and companionship.

About: I love finding lots of places to explore and run around. Love going for walks around the neighborhood would love to take your pup's with me. I enjoy animals and I would love to play with them outside. I have house sat before for friends and it's fun. I work full time but my schedule right now is very flexible and I have alot of time on my hands. I grew up with the sweetest cat and playing with neighbors dogs. I'd love to take care of some animals again. Thank you I'm currently working full time but I'm ready to start picking up some extra work. Taking care of your pet would be a fun change from my daily routine. Unfortunately I live in an apartment now so I'm unable to host any pets here. But I'm happy to come to your home to take care of your fur babies. I like going for long walks or hikes. Sometimes when they get some good exercise they feel better. It's important to me to make sure your pet feels comfortable with spending time with me. And at the end of the day it's a treat to see me not a chore for them.

“Haley was amazing with our dog Frost! She was responsive and friendly. Haley took excellent care of him while we were away. She provided photos and videos. It helped us to enjoy our time away knowing he was being well cared for!”
