Pet Sitting in New Paltz

“Paige took wonderful care of our cat, Charlie, while we were away for a few days. She was very communicative, sending photos and updates, and we came home to a happy, calm cat. We’d definitely recommend Paige and would gladly hire her again!”

About: I grew up around dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve helped take care of my friends’ dogs, including Pip, whom I’ve watched since he was a puppy, and Martha, a more senior dog. I’ve handled walking, feeding, playtime, and just generally making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’m very responsible and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every dog as if they were my own. It means a lot to me to be given the opportunity to care for your furry friend. : ) I’m in university at the moment, so my schedule is pretty open. If there’s a particular time that you’re looking for, feel free to let me know and we can work something out! I live in a single on campus, with a decently sized room for any small or medium sized doggies, and there is a fenced in track behind my building/apartment if they wanna just run around with me for a while.

“Upon meeting Shana, you know she is a good fit. She has a warm and gentle way with you-- and more importantly your dog. Fredd was completely at ease the first time he met her. She was communicative thoughout the whole time we were away. I received daily pictures and updates. I couldn't recommend her more!”

“We were very pleased with Rose's care for Nina. She was diligent in providing information and pics on Nina. We will definitely use her services again and will recommend to others. Thank you.”

“We love Jayda and will definitely be using her again! She was so great with our girl, took her on walks and sent us lots of pics through out the visit- which made us feel so comfortable! Absolutely recommend!”

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

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!

“As always Lena took perfect care of our older corgi and our house. There was snow and freezing rain while we were gone and Lena made sure our walkway was clear and salted so that he could go for walks without hurting himself. So glad we found Lena!”

About: I have had my own dog, Stella, for 2 years, since she was a puppy. I frequently babysit my neighbor's dog, Mako, who is a 6 month old puppy. I know the ins and outs of watching, feeding, and entertaining dogs. Additionally I previously worked at an animal shelter where I was responsible for multiple dogs at the same time. My dog gets walked and fed at around 6 am, then walked again at 11-12 am depending on if she peed or pooped or both prior. Then she gets walked at 5 pm before dinner, and again before bed at around 8-9 pm. She usually gets 10-15 minute walks each time depending on how long it takes for her to do her business and play. I will take care of all my responsibilities in a timely and thorough manner. I understand that dogs are family members and they need to be treated with love, patience and care and I also understand how much trust you are putting in me to take care of your pet.

“Rebecca was very professional, punctual and friendly! She was very flexible in accommodating a last minute scheduling change, and clearly has a lot of experience with different types of dogs (handling our dog who gets quite feisty with skateboards easily). We hope to use Rebecca's services again in the future!”

“Grettel was reliable and communicative! And most importantly, my dog, who can be a little nervous around new people, took to Grettel right away and was super comfortable. Would highly recommend Grettel for caring for your animals.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my life, regularly volunteering at local shelters, and caring for two dogs and three cats of my own. I love to be active, and I am ready, willing, and able to bring your dogs on long, fun, and enriching walks. I also adore spending down time with pets, showing them all the love and affection you do! I’ve taken care of up to three dogs at once, and I am up for any challenge! I am flexible to your pets needs (medications, special diets, etc.) and will treat your pet as if they were my own. I am currently a part-time employee and student. My schedule is relatively stable but subject to change. I am unavailable at the following times due to my class/work schedule: Monday and Thursday (11:00-12:15, 3:30-4:45), Tuesday and Friday (7:30-1:30). However, I am ready to work with you to establish a schedule that work for both of us! I only do care at client’s homes because of my two cats at home who generally do not like other animals. I am ready to utilize client’s backyards, nearby trails, and anything else owners implement into their pet’s daily routine!

“What an amazing person and pet sitter. Amelia was wonderful, communicative, trustworthy and caring. Would 100% recommend and book with her again!!!”

“I am very thankful to Jen. She was dependable and very nice. It was reassuring to me when she sent the photos and video! Loki took right to her. Thank you!!”

“Kate spent time with our very nervous rescue dog this past weekend. Kate is calm and sweet and she made progress with Foxy over the two days. It is hard to leave a nervous dog but we felt that Foxy was in great hands. We were so grateful for the reports and photos Kate sent. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: I've owned a small dogwalking/pet sitting business since 1999. I(Maria) am CPDT-KA certified in dog training as well. I've worked with all breeds of dogs, ages with many different dispositions. My husband & I moved from Brooklyn(where we had our biz since 2006) to New Paltz this summer. We are continuing to do personal & very limited boarding in our new home. I(Maria) am also offering private training sessions(in your home) . I specialize in puppy or newly adopted pups/dogs. Doggie care is part of my daily routine. I have 2 dogs of my own, both less energy less days, but still enjoy getting their walks & sniffs in. The very limited boarding means your dogs stay with our family, always supervised & leashed outside. We have many dogs beds but can bring your own.

About: I have owned 4 dogs throughout my entire life and am a total animal lover! I love and enjoy walking and connecting with dogs, and have had much experience walking my own dogs (2 Portuguese water dogs) as well as dogs of my friends and family. I also have experience feeding, bathing, and playing with/entertaining dogs. They are my favorite! I am working part time with an ambiguous schedule, so I definitely have availability for walking dogs whenever! Weekdays during the morning/afternoon work best for me, but feel free to reach out about other times, I am flexible! I have a backyard with space to play around, as well as a retractable fence. I am comfortable crating if needed. My neighborhood is great for walking dogs as well.
