Dog Walking New Paltz

“Grace and Julia were great! Both of my pets are older and on medications. I had total trust that Grace and Julia could handle their needs which gave me the comfort I was looking for. They were available when I needed them and even came to do a meet and greet! I will be using them again for sure!”

About: Hi! I’m a proud dog mama to two wonderful dogs—a Pit Bull/Lab mix and an Australian Cattle Dog. 🐾 I’m familiar with using flat collars, prong collars, and slip leads, and I understand the importance of using the right equipment safely and appropriately. I’ve also taken several dog-training classes with my own dogs, giving me a good foundation in leash handling, communication, basic obedience, and training techniques. I’ve also dog-sat for friends and family in the past, caring for dogs in their homes and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love while their owners are away. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I currently work full-time, but I’m available Friday evenings and have flexible availability throughout the weekends. I’d be happy to work with you to find a time that fits your schedule and your dog’s needs. Since I don’t have a fenced in yard, I’m used to providing my dogs with structured exercise and supervision. My older dog is leash-walked, while my younger dog is allowed off-leash using an e-collar in appropriate settings. We incorporate training throughout the day, along with plenty of playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation. This routine has given me experience balancing safety, structure, training, and fun while caring for dogs with different ages and energy levels.

About: I have always been an animal lover. As a kid, I had a guinea pig and a dog, and I spent a lot of my time at a farm, riding and caring for horses. Aside from taking care of my family dog, I have looked after the pets of friends and acquaintances. I have experience with both dogs and cats. I have volunteered in animal shelters and sanctuaries, and previously worked with a dog groomer, bathing and drying dogs. I work a part-time 11am-5pm job, mostly on weekends, along with some special events. I have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule, so I can arrange it to fit with other responsibilities, such as pet sitting needs! I have a fenced yard, perfect for playing! I currently do not have any pets. I love to provide pets with the entertainment exercise they need, and I'm always happy to give cuddles if your pet likes physical affection, or space if they prefer to keep some distance.

“We had another great experience with Aliza! She is reliable, communicative, and takes wonderful care of our dog. It’s always reassuring to know he is in such good hands. We’re very happy to have found her and would absolutely recommend her!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, from huskies, to mastiffs to pitbulls, I’ve cared for them all. I love all dogs and just get joy out of spending time with them. I also volunteer and foster pets for the UCSPCA. I am a student, I only have a few hours of classes a day so I have plenty of time to play and take doggies for walks. I am currently fostering a cat in my home, so most of the work I would be interested in doing is focused on dog walking and drop ins at a clients home. I am communicative and will send photos of animals!

“Timothy was great! This was our first time using his services, and everything went smoothly. He was communicative, easygoing, and very flexible. He even offered to refill our dog’s water bowl! He sent plenty of photos, and our dog looked happy and excited in all of them. We’ll definitely book with him again. Thank you!”

About: Hello, I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 11 years old. From dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, you name it! I’ve trained many puppies and love everyone’s furry friends. Fun Fact my dog at home is scared of thunder, so I always sit in the bathtub with him until he’s ready to come out (photo included) I’ve also babysat and house sat for many years :) I have maximum 2 one hour classes a day with a 3 hour gap in between! So there will be plenty of time for me to take care of your furry friends!!! I live in a single room on campus with loads of space and two beds if the pets want to have a comfy space. When I have to leave for a class I play zen pet music to help calm them down if I have to leave!

“Jessica is incredible! My pups are both recent rescues from pretty dire situations and have trouble trusting any humans besides myself and my partner. They loved Jessica right away. She has a caring, patient and calm nature. I would recommend Jessica to everyone! Thanks Jessica!”

About: Flexible schedule to meet all your pet's needs. 10+ years of experience and a whole lot of love. My greatest joy is providing clients with peace of mind, assuring them that while they’re away, their home and pets are safe, secure, and well cared for. I am also available to provide house sitting needs like watering plants, taking out the trash, and bringing in mail and packages. My schedule is flexible; I can tailor pet care to fit it. Let's schedule a preliminary visit and see if we're a good fit for each other. I'm excited to meet you and get to know your pet:) I do not care for pets in my home, but I am happy to stay overnight in your home and/or drop in to care for your pet. I love talking to pets and getting to know their personality. It brings me joy to see them happy and thriving in my care.

“Leslie was so patient and caring with our nervous-around-strangers dog. And she was expert at giving our cat his insulin as well. Will absolutely seek her out again and recommend her to anyone!!”

“Grettel was fantastic! Leo loved her and couldn’t wait for her visits. She was very thorough asking questions about Leo’s routine. A pleasure to deal with. We would definitely use her again.”

“Sara was awesome, she was super friendly and my dog loved her! Will definitely book Sara again for another session.”

“I am so happy I found Jasmine - she was so communicative and came to visit Sherlock before his first walk with her on the same day. This gave me total peace of mind. She spent time with Sherlock, walked him and kept me in the loop when she finished. She is lovely, easy to work with and most importantly, Sherlock took to her immediately!”

About: I have been a pet lover & pet care advocate for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities my entire life. I’ve taken care of kittens, pups, rescued cats, & cared for other pets like bunnies, fish, & hamsters. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and love their pets like my own which I do with a smile. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs to play & burn off some energy, or a sweet senior pup who needs extra patience and care, I adapt to their unique needs and personalities. I’m not just a sitter, i’m an emotional support human & a dependable companion for your pet while you’re away. I believe in consistent communication, lots of love, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. I love & care for them as if they were my own. I’m experienced with administering medications, sticking to routines, and keeping pets calm and comfortable in their own environment. Your comfort, peace of mind, & your pet’s happiness are my top priority! As someone who works from home and takes online classes, my schedule is super flexible; perfect for giving your pet the attention they deserve! I’m home throughout the day, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. Whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or just some company while they nap, I can be there when they need it most. My routine allows me to be fully present and responsive to your pet’s needs. I can stick to their feeding and walking schedule, provide consistent companionship, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. Being home all day also makes me a great fit for puppies, senior pets, or dogs who need a little extra TLC. When I care for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your pet’s routine closely & I make sure they’re comfortable in their space, following their usual schedule for walks, meals, playtime, and cuddles. Whether it’s sticking to their favorite walking route or knowing exactly how they like their food prepared, I pay close attention to every detail you share. I know how much the little details matter! Being in their own environment helps your pet feel more relaxed, and I’m there to make sure they feel loved every step of the way. I’m experienced in administering a variety of medications, including flea and tick ointments, oral chewy meds, and pills; whether they’re hidden in a treat or given directly. I stay calm and patient to make the process as stress-free as possible. I’m comfortable managing multiple pets and giving each one the attention and care they need. I treat your home with the same respect and care I give to your pet: clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. I provide regular updates with messages & photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands & know everything is going smoothly while you’re away.

About: I have experience with many different dog breeds with different energy and health needs. I give all of the animals under my care the same treatment. I would take care of a super senior cat with the same dedication I would a golden retriever puppy. I'm not squeamish at all either, I'm comfortable dealing with body fluids and administering injection and medications. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters so i've seen it all! Currently, my only commitments are helping to babysit younger family members, which is flexible schedule and only part-time. I have lots of time to not only take care of your animals, but also play with them and give them good entertainment My own dog is a runner, so I am hypervigilant about making sure animals don't dart out doors. I always make sure I physically see the animal and watch them to make sure they look healthy and happy, I don't just leave food and water and go home. I'm more than happy to give daily updates on animals i'm watching there are owners out of town and take pictures

About: I cared for my friend’s dog while she was out of town, making sure he was fed, walked, and loved like my own. That experience showed me how much I enjoy giving pets the attention and comfort they need when their people are away. I'm patient, reliable, and treat every pet like family! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine—I enjoy being active and love spending time with animals. Whether it's early morning walks or evening check-ins, I make time each day to give pets the care and attention they deserve. It never feels like a chore—it’s something I genuinely enjoy! Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep the environment calm and clean, and I always give them plenty of attention and affection like they’re my own.

About: I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet behind, so my goal is to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m calm, attentive, and great at sticking to routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I provide a safe, loving environment they can relax in. I currently am a student from home so I have more than enough time to take care of your furry companion while you are away. I used to walk my dog around my neighborhood sometimes to the river If it’s really nice out just get her some fresh air. Proper feeding times and bathroom breaks.

About: I will put my best foot forward to make sure you and your dog have the most comfortable experience while having me as a sitter . Typically have to walk my friends dogs when they or out to work recently bin puppy sitting for another figured I could turn it into a gig ! Make sure they get enough food and water and go out for enough walks.Also a bit of play time never hurts any body I always say!
