Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Melrose, Albany, NY

“Erica was amazing, always gave us updates and photos! We will def get her again if we go on another vacation.”

“Jessica was great with my 6 pets on a recent weekend. She was very responsive, sent me photos, communicated with me daily and was successful at getting 1 of my dogs with dementia to go outside for her. Would recommend.”

“Ewa did a midday drop in for my pups, she let me know how it went and all was well upon my return, would book her again, thanks Ewa!”

“Returned to a calm happy pup, thanks to yet again Ewan’s professional and loving care of our dog. The pics he sent during each visit documented his thoroughness and kindness and even made us laugh at some of the facial expressions he captured. Sign him up for your next canine coverage needs - just not on the days in need him 😉!”

“Natasha is Awesome! She formed a wonderful bond with my Colby and did meditation with him! She provided videos and frequent updates which I so appreciate. Most of all my boy looked so relaxed and zen. I highly recommend and I will surely be using her services again.”

“Valerie is a wonderful pet sitter! l have known Val for several years and all that time she has always owned pets, mostly dogs. Val has a true way with animals. She has been my go to person anytime l have needed a pet sitter. She is loving and kind towards all animals and people alike. She owns three, really cool, small breed dogs which my dog loves. She also communicates well and ensures your pet is well cared for by always following instructions given. l never worry when l am out if town. My dog loves hanging out amd playing at Val's house. l will definitely use her dog sitting services over and over again!”

“Michelle was incredible! She went above and beyond what we asked when she checked on our cat, Pounce. We came home to a happy and fed cat! Will absolutely look to use Michelle again in the future.”

“Miranda was a fantastic sitter for my 8 month year old cat! Miranda was extremely communicative in preparation & during her visits. She is professional, knowledgeable, and has deep care for pet sitting. She made, what’s often considered a stressful process, a seamless one. Highly recommended & looking forward to rebooking with her sometime soon!”

“Ashley was fantastic with my two cats and rabbit! Although my routine with my pets can be a bit much ?, she followed the routine perfectly when I was away. She sent detailed reports regarding her visits, along with adorable pictures! I’ll definitely reach out to her again if I need someone to watch my pets!”

“Eleanor was great! She came over for us last minute and gave amazing care for our babies! She sends cute pictures and kept us updated. I can’t wait to use her again!”

“Debra has been an exceptional companion for my kitties. She gave them the utmost care during my extended absence, showering them with warmth and attention. She sent me multiple pictures on her visit, keeping me updated on their well-being and activities at home. Thanks to her presence, I was able to enjoy my trip without any concerns about my kitties. I sincerely hope she will be available for my future trip as well.”

“Sarah was consistent, well organized, and kind. Our dog loved her from the start and it is very clear that she has a real gift for animal care. We so happy that she is a part of our pet’s lives!”

“Hannah was great! I’m so glad we booked her as our catsitter. She was very communicative and flexible, adjusting to the change in dates for our trip. She made sure to visit the cats twice daily, at specific times so she could give our diabetic cat his insulin injections. She was comfortable giving the insulin injections and made sure to play with both cats each day. She also watered our plants and brought in our packages. And after every visit she provided a detailed report with lots of pictures. I loved knowing the cats were in good hands and I will definitely be hiring her again for any cat sitting needs we have in the future.”

“Jared has been caring for multiple dogs, Guinea pigs, and lizards from a young age. He knows how to handle all types of animal behavior and is incredibly caring with animals.”

“Thanks for taking such good care of Benny!”

“Gil is a great pet caregiving. She always makes sure pets feel safe and are able to care for them when others aren’t able to. For example, I got a cat named Syd and she had worms when I first got her. When Gil started to care for my cat she was able to get Syd the worm medication when needed. Gil is a great sitter and I trust her to look after my cat. She seems fond of her.”

“I wholeheartedly recommend Madeleine as a pet caregiver! Madeleine has had animals all her life and knows what it takes to ensure they’re well cared for. Ive asked her on numerous occasions to help me take my dog out and watch him while I’m on vacation and she’s done an amazing job with him!! He’s a 9 year old pit mix and can be a lot to handle but it’s no sweat for Madeleine. I’ve also seen her care for her cat for many years and her new puppy for the past 6 months and she’s doing an amazing job training her to be a well behaved dog. You can’t go wrong hiring Madeleine!!!”

“Thanks so much for a last minute lunch visit!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs throughout all of my college years going to homes while they were away . Last year I lost my own dog due to old age, I had 13 amazing years with her. I haven’t been ready to take the next step in getting another of my own but looking to enjoy others until ready! I am a nurse and work 4 days a week and have three days off as well as evenings. I am looking to spend free time caring for animals! I have a large backyard and love walking and getting exercise. I currently don’t have any animals as my dog passed last year so plenty of space and time to care for dogs.

About: I have responsibly owned dogs and cats for 44 years. I can clip the nails of most cats. I provide daily litter scooping and cuddle time with your cat. Rides and on-lead hikes with my dog if your dog is compatible if you wish. Individualized time in your neighborhood with your dog if you prefer. I am available for daily, weekly, and vacation care. Let's talk and meet. A preliminary meet-up with your pet or pets is necessary. I want you and your pets to feel comfortable and safe. Cats will have individualized attention in your home to include feeding, daily litter scooping, playtime or cuddle time, and nail trimming if the cat allows it. Dogs can go on car rides or gentle hikes with my dog if they are compatible. [They will have to meet first on a walk in your neighborhood. I do not utilize dog parks in order to keep your dog safe]. Your dog can have individualized attention and solo dog walks around your neighborhood if that is their and your preference. Playtime, cuddles, and light training are included.
