About: I am a dedicated animal lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and ferrets. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, built around consistent feeding times, walks, and play sessions. I set aside dedicated time each day and week to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. This routine helps pets feel secure while allowing me to provide reliable, high-quality care. I provide attentive, compassionate care by following each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, and playtime. In a client’s home, I respect their space while ensuring their pet feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free in a familiar environment. I also monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior or health and provide regular updates to give owners peace of mind.

About: Growing up, my family didn’t have pets of our own, so whenever we had the opportunity to host or care for one, I truly valued it. Over time, what started as excitement developed into a genuine passion for building real connections with animals. I’ve cared for dogs with very different personalities — from protective, high-energy breeds to small companion dogs. I pay close attention to body language and natural behaviors so I can approach each dog in a way that builds trust and comfort. I match their energy, respect their boundaries, and create an environment where they feel safe and understood. I have hands-on experience with puppies, leash training, and maintaining structure and routine. I’m comfortable reinforcing positive walking habits and supporting established crate training in a way that helps dogs feel calm and secure. I also carefully follow specific diets and detailed feeding instructions, understanding how important consistency is to a dog’s well-being. Outside of pet care, I’m building experience working with young adults with special needs. That work has strengthened my patience, attentiveness to nonverbal cues, and commitment to being dependable. I believe people should have someone they can rely on, and I carry that same responsibility into caring for animals. My focus is simple: safety, consistency, engagement, and genuine connection. ⸻ Core Strengths • Trust-building & reading canine body language • Puppy care & routine reinforcement • Leash handling & basic command reinforcement • Crate training support & positive association • Following specific diets and care instructions • Enrichment-based play & mental stimulation • Calm, patient, dependable care I currently work from 8–10 AM and 5:30–8 PM, which leaves my early mornings, late mornings, mid-day, and late evenings fully available for pet care. This schedule allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins. Dogs in my care are not left alone for extended periods without a plan in place. I’ve successfully boarded two dogs with this routine, and we had a great experience maintaining structure, engagement, and plenty of activity throughout the day. My availability works especially well for: • Morning and mid-day walks • Consistent feeding schedules • Puppies who need more frequent attention • Dogs who benefit from structured activity and engagemen No matter where I am, in my home or at a client’s home. I prioritize following the care routine the owner provides. This ensures pets have stability and consistency while their loved ones are away. I make sure to provide: • Regular feeding according to specific diets and schedules • Plenty of mental and physical stimulation through walks, play, and enrichment activities • Safe, supervised time in the home, including supporting crate routines when applicable • Consistent attention to their comfort, energy levels, and emotional needs • Clear communication with owners, including updates and photos I tailor my care to each individual dog, respecting their boundaries and energy, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and engaged until their owners return.

“Tina was fantastic with Simba! Her setup was perfect for my puppy to get plenty of exercise and socialize with other dogs. Simba loved playing with her pups and enjoyed all the love and attention from her family. I highly recommend Tina to anyone who, like me, is selective about where they leave their fur baby. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would definitely book with her again”

About: Dogs thrive on calm structure and that’s exactly what I provide. I create a controlled, low stress environment where dogs are calm, well managed, and set up for success. I’m a sitter with formal training in dog behavior, and I’m currently continuing my education through an accredited, science based training program. My approach goes beyond basic pet sitting, I focus on structure, clear boundaries, and reading behavior to prevent issues before they start. I specialize in dogs that need structure and guidance, whether that’s anxious dogs, easily overstimulated dogs, or dogs adjusting to a new environment. My focus is helping dogs stay calm, regulated, and comfortable, not just physically tired. Every dog is handled intentionally and with clear structure, not as part of a chaotic group setting. Pet care is my full-time work, so your dog’s routine becomes my routine. Meals, walks, enrichment, rest, and any training cues you already use are followed consistently. Keeping things predictable helps dogs...especially anxious or reactive ones settle in fast and stay comfortable. My home is structured, supervised, and calm...not a pack play setup or unsupervised backyard chaos. Dogs get proper introductions, clear boundaries, and a predictable routine so they feel secure. I tailor the environment to each dog: decompression time, quiet areas, supervised social time only when appropriate, and no forced interactions. Dogs are always supervised, with thoughtful structure designed to prevent overstimulation or unsafe situations.

“Isabel was fantastic with our high energy dog, Crash. She was so caring and patient, and our pup loved hanging in the yard with her new dog friends! We would absolutely bring our dog back to Isabel’s anytime.”

“My dog, Luna, had a great day at Kyle’s. He’s got a great setup for pups to play inside and out, and he clearly understands dogs well and is able to give them great care. Luna is very nervous around new people, and Kyle was able to attend to her needs and made sure she was comfortable during her stay. Will definitely be back.”

About: Hello! My name is Daphne. Since I was a little girl, I have had a huge passion and love for dogs. I have grown up with bully breeds for my entire life. From Rottweilers to Pit bulls, to American Bulldogs. I currently have an Olde English Bulldog who is the princess of our family. I have a huge love for dogs but specifically bully breeds. I understand how strong they are when going for walks and how much love they have to give. I have experience working at a dog kennel in Putnam Valley taking care of multiple dogs at a time, big and small. I also take care of my neighbors 3 black labs when she is away multiple times a year. I also am available to board cat’s inside my home/room. I have watched extended family members cats in my room and am extremely comfortable. I currently work remote so I am available any time during the weekday. I do require a few days advanced noticed so I can plan my schedule! I am able to provide fresh food and water for dogs. I will also ensure dogs get regular walks and exercise as per their usual routine.

“Highly recommend! My baby was well taken care of! Tinaclem was super friendly. When we arrived she introduced her dog with mine and brought them both to the back yard so she can get familiar with the yard and was very welcoming! Many walks and lots of pics for updates! ❤️My baby was pooped for days! She already misses Elvis! Sweet dog she has!”

“Dew goes above and beyond for my puppy. Checks in regularly when he is in her care and even checks in when he is at home. As a first time user of a dog-sitter, I was anxious about leaving my puppy in someone else’s care. Dew almost immediately alleviated my concerns. I feel like her care has been a major benefit for me and for my puppy’s social development. Will continue to take advantage of Dew’s services for the foreseeable future. Highly recommended!”

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life! Sometimes I feel like they get me more than humans! I had a bunny and two cats growing up and also cared for my brother’s pig. I currently have a beautiful puggle named Lulu who I absolutely adore. I am a morning person and live an active life so long walks are my speciality. Also always down to play and snuggle. My lulu has some special needs of her own being paralyzed in her back legs, so I am capable of caring for pets in all conditions. I work part time and have a flexible daily routine so I tend to have free time available for time with the sweet fur babies. I have a spacious and clean home right across the street from a beautiful park so I am capable of providing a fun and safe space for your pet right at home.

“Rose and Michael took great care of our 10 month old cavapoo. They sent lots of pictures and updates during his 3 day stay. We will definitely be using them again.”

About: Our family loves our pets, and I'll love yours too while you are away. My husband and I adopted our first black Lab in 2001, when she was eight years old. She was our first baby. Since that time, in addition to raising our human family, we have added many furry, finned, and feathered members to our home. While my ten-year-old Havanese is my "Best Boy;" I am "House Mom" to the other pets in our family. I love the time in the day I spend with my pets and look forward to spreading that love to other animals as I have more free time now that my kids are growing up. Having my own pets, I know it is hard to leave town. It's essential to find someone who is responsible, thoughtful, honest, and gentle to watch over them. I look forward to meeting with you and your pets to help alleviate your concerns. I am a stay-at-home parent, to older children, so my schedule is very flexible. I look forward to working with you to create a schedule that supports everyone! I believe in the Golden Rule. I will care for your pet(s) just as I would expect someone to care for mine. Before scheduling our first pet sitting appointment, I would like to meet with you and your pet in order to understand your pets' schedules and needs. If I am visiting your pets at your home, is there anything small I can help you with? Maybe you want your trash bins brought in, or your mail picked up?

“So easy to communicate with. Professional and friendly. Norman had a blast!”
