Dog Sitting Pleasant Valley

About: Hello! I have been a dog walker/sitter for 8 years and have taken care of several clients and their dogs, including relatives and neighbors. I am 18 years old, with a dog of my own and a huge passion for dogs, who is currently studying to be a veterinarian. Additionally, I take pride and excellence in letting dogs outside, cleaning up their messes, having high patience and tolerance, ability to withstand dog barking/scratching/biting etc, bathing, feeding, watering, and dog walking. I also give special attention to any additional needs a dog may have At this time, I am not working any part time or full time jobs. I am willing to support you and your pet family at any time and during any day. Based on your preferences, I can walk and sit your dogs at any frequency. Just let me know what works best for them and I will be willing to accommodate you When it comes to my neighbor’s, relative’s, and my own dog, I take care of them by putting food and water in their bowls once they run empty, taking them outside when they line up at the door or every 0-2 hours, giving them lots of pets, separating any dog that gets in a fight with their sibling using calm/safe measures, plenty of walks and a kind demeanor. Any dog that is in my care will be in good hands

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life with different needs and personalities, I've also had family and friends come to me to take care of there pets. I'm currently working part time at a jackson animal clinic, i work 5-6 hours a day about 4 days a week. My schedule changes every week. I have a fenced in yard with two cats that are very friendly.

About: I've been around animals my entire life and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I grew up with dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of different personalities and needs. Currently, I have a large, energetic dog and a bunny of my own, so I'm comfortable caring for both dogs and small animals. I also previously volunteered as a foster for a local humane society, where I cared for dogs as they adjusted to new environments and prepared for their forever homes. That experience taught me patience, how to read animal body language, and how to help pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give my own pets. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience while you're away, giving you peace of mind that your furry family member is in caring hands. I am currently on summer break so my schedule is pretty flexible. After summers I am free for drop ins in the morning and after school, and weekends! I have worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I look forward to loving your pup like my own for a short time! I will send updates and pictures while you are away!

“Paola has been such a wonderful life saver! She was able to help me last minute, adapt to an off-time schedule, and made sure my pup was taken care of so I had one less thing to worry about while I was at work. I’ve utilized her services multiple times and will definitely continue to ask for her help.”

About: I have had many animals over the years. As I child, we had so many breeds of dogs. From Saint Bernard, Great Dane, and Bull Mastiff. To sheep dogs and small mixed breed dogs. We currently bace 1 cat, who is the chillest, sweetest cat I’ve ever known. We have 5 kids, who LOVE animals. Your sweet fur baby won’t even know you are gone, with all the love they would get at our house. I was laid off in 2024, so I am currently home with our toddler, while the big kids are at school. So your fur baby would have someone with them all day! We have a big fenced in yard, and a great neighborhood for walks! Your fur baby would be well loved in our care. I am currently home with our 1 year old daughter. My oldest are in school. We go to the gym a few times a week, and do some reselling on the side. But we are never gone for very long and can give your fur baby lots of love and attention. I have a fenced yard, with a 6 foot fence. So your fur baby will be safe! We have plenty of space to crate if needed. We also have a cat tree and lots of good hiding spots for more timid kitties.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover, outdoor enthusiast, and firm believer that every walk should be the highlight of your dog's day. With over 20 years of experience walking dogs, I've met just about every personality - from energetic puppies to wise senior pups and even a few delightfully stubborn leash-pullers! I also spent time as a school farm tour guide, working with a variety of animals and learning how to confidently handle all kinds of temperaments. Whether your dog loves to power walk, stop and sniff every flower, or is still learning good leash manners, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I have experience leash training puppies and helping even the most determined dogs become more enjoyable walking companions using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. You can count on me for safe, reliable care, plenty of exercise, lots of encouragement, and, of course, adorable photo updates along the way. My goal is simple: send your pup home happy, tired, and already looking forward to our next adventure together. I can't wait to become your dog's new favorite walking buddy! I work part-time and am also a stay-at-home wife and mom, giving me a flexible schedule that's perfect for dog walking. I love being active and outdoors, so I'm available for dependable walks and plenty of one-on-one attention for your pup! Your dog's safety is always my top priority. I'll use secure leashing practices, stay alert to our surroundings, avoid unsafe situations, and tailor each walk to your dog's comfort and energy level. You can trust that your pup will be treated with the same care and attention I'd give my own.

“We couldn't have ask for a better pet sitter! Olivia took wonderful care of our 2 cats, Benji & Lily, as well as our chickens while we were away for 2 weeks. She kept updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Both cats looked happy and relaxed, even Lily, who's usually shy and Benji being spoiled with some snuggle time! The chickens were well cared for too. We came home to happy pets and a tidy house. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring and attentive, we highly recommend Olivia. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”

Lesa W.

“Virginia was very reliable and always sent photos and a detailed summary of her visits, so we always knew our dog was being well cared for while we were on vacation. We would definitely use her again!”

“This was our first time using Rover right before a long Holiday weekend. We were very nervous but had an amazing experience with Allyson as our pet sitter. She was able to quickly head over to our home to meet with us and our dog Finn. As soon as she met Finn they were playing and quickly bonded. Throughout the weekend Allyson exceeded our expectations. She followed all of the care procedures, asked permission to give Finn some additional time, and took him on multiple walks. Throughout our trip she shared some wonderful pictures and it was clear that he was very well cared for. When we returned home it was clear she took really good care of everything and Finn was doing great! We are so thankful for finding her last minute and will definitely rebook in the future.”

The way I care for pets in my home or a client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Here are a few scenarios: In the client's home: Pet Sitting: When providing pet sitting services at a client's home, I make sure to replicate the pet's daily routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs for walks, and engaging in playtime or exercise based on their specific needs. I also offer companionship and affection to help reduce any separation anxiety they may experience. Drop-in Visits: During drop-in visits, I visit the client's home at scheduled times to check on their pets. I ensure they have food and water, clean litter boxes, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, and spend quality time with them, offering play and affection. Dog Walking: For dog walking services, I take the dogs on stimulating walks to provide exercise, mental stimulation, and an opportunity for bathroom breaks. I follow any instructions regarding route preferences, leash handling, or specific behavioral considerations. Regardless of the service provided, the well-being, safety, and happiness of the pets are my top priorities. I strive to create a comfortable and nurturing environment, maintain their regular routines, and shower them with love and attention, just as their owners would.
