Cat Sitting in Philmont

“Sarah did an incredible job taking care of our 3 cats while we were out of town for the weekend! It was our first time using Rover, so we were naturally a little nervous, but Sarah did a great job assuring us before our trip that she would spend quality time with our cats and take care of their every need. She sent over great photos and updates with each visit, and even got our shy cat to come out and play! We are so glad we found Sarah and would trust her to watch our cats anytime! We came home to tidy litter boxes and our cats were very relaxed and well taken care of. Thank you so much, Sarah!”

“Alexis was a great sitter for our cats. She communicated well beforehand and the cats seem to take a liking to her pretty quickly. She made sure to follow the instructions we left her and left the litter box clean. Overall we're very happy with her work and would definitely ask her to catsit again.”

“Nicole was great with our cat Yuki! She was extremely reliable, communicative (sent pictures and updates !) , and went above and beyond and left us a Polaroid of Yuki as memento for us to keep. I would absolutely leave Yuki in her care again and feel one hundred percent at ease.”

“Courtney was amazing with our cats. She went above and beyond while taking care of them and made sure our older cat got her medicine. She was also a great communicator and was able to help us out on very short notice. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: Over 20 years of experience with dogs. Pulled my first dog from the ACC on 110th in Manhattan when I was 19 years old. Never looked back. I've been adopting, fostering, and rescuing ever since. Now at 41, I have my own boarding facility on a farm. ***Pick up and drop off service available*** Self-employed farm owner. My better half is also on the property full time. We are available and on call 24/7. Finding time to care for your dog(s) is never an issue. It is our pleasure to host your furry family member(s). We have individual furnished and heated kennels (with fenced outdoor runs) for our guests. There is a fenced play yard and walks are provided as well. If properly socialized and cool with the pack, all friends are allowed to hang in the house.

“Siri is excellent! She is extremely reliable, communicative, professional, and wonderful to work with. My two cats were well taken care of, both happy and calm, after a weekend in her care. Highly recommended!”

“Dakota is a lovely and attentive caregiver. My older lady cat needs a daily visit and Dakota was thoughtful and great in her communication. Odie was much more happy and relaxed when I returned. Will definitely work with Dakota again!”

About: I grew up with a Yellow Lab named Jake and a cat named Garfield. I adopted two cats of my own about 8 years ago, one named Chevy Chase and the other is a deaf cat named Buster. I have taken care of family and friends pets whether it be housesitting and staying with them or just checking in daily. I work 8-4 Monday-Friday so I am available to pet sit in a home that is not too far from work and on the weekends. I understand that your pet and your home are very important and I am a reliable, trustworthy person who will leave your home spotless and your pet well taken care of.

About: Hello! I've been an animal lover my entire life. My dog, Zeke and I had a companion kind of relationship, built on mutual respect and happiness; it's something I wouldn't have traded for the world. He sadly passed away in October after 12 years together, so it would be an understatement to say I'm more than happy to pour extra love to your pup. ___________________________________________________________________________ This is a new offering as of August 2024. I have discovered that adventures are my ideal experiences and would like to advertise as such! Mountain hikes, kayak paddles (>15 pounds), and bike cart rides for the senior pups are my favorites, but I am open to other ideas/training requests! Paddleboarding, swimming lessons...the possibilities are endless. One hour minimum is preferred; gas and travel time to the adventure site are included. I have many mountains, lakes and trails on my list, so I do not see it as fair to charge you for that time! You will only be charged for adventure time. Depending on your pup(s) comfortability in the car, we may travel up to 45 minutes. You and I will decide together on location details, and this app will track where your pup(s) and I are at all times. Wilderness First Aid trained, canine safety versed, ample water provided, and pups will always be kept safely on the leash. Your pup will return home satisfied and tired! ____________________________________________________________________________ For a NORMAL NEIGHBORHOOD WALK, please book a drop-in visit and message to remind me that you would like a walk. Availability for walks and drop-ins will change after Labor Day. Unavailable most weekdays 12-3:30 I am a caretaker by nature, and have been a teacher for the past 4years, a live in nanny before that and most recently a grade school teacher. I'm going back to school to get my licensure. Honestly, care taking and fresh air gives me clarity of mind, and the chance to peel away from the screen helps process all the new information! I am trying to practice running again too, if your canine would like to train with me. Familiar with many local trails and parks. All weather is good weather! Experience with dogs with seizures and giving various medications. Feline friend as well. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends ! I am working at a school 12-3:30, and going to school online. I recently moved my senior dog up here, but I am missing all the adventures we used to go on! Caring for your pets gives me the chance to go where he can't. I do not offer boarding. When I am in your home, I try to leave it better than I found it. I have spent a fair amount of time farming and gardening, so plants will be well cared for if asked.

“Amazing! Wonderful, I knew I didn’t have to worry about Darla in Almitra’s care. I’m pretty sure Darla misses her already”

“Abigail was the perfect cat sitter. I was so nervous leaving my cats for so long but it turns out, I didn't have to worry at all. She came for a meet and greet, learned all their names, and followed every instruction during the entire two week period. I needed twice a day drop ins for one hour each. She stayed for the entire hour, played with the cats, fed them, pet them, cleaned food bowls, replaced water bowls and cleaned their litter. She took pictures of them every time and by the end, my cats were so comfortable with her. I would hundred percent recommend her if you want a sweet, caring sitter who you can rely on.”

John S.

“Sophie managed her dog Blue & cat Zdugar Ray very well. I left her lots of notes. k she was diligent about all of them- even playing with him with the boring stick toy he lives. I rarely need sitters, it had an emergency doctor's appointment in NYC.”
