Cat Sitting in Port Leyden

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and currently care for two 4-month-old pups and an 8-year-old cat. I provide dependable, loving care that pets feel comfortable with from day one. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine since I have three of my own—a cat and two 4-month-old puppies. I keep them on a consistent schedule and am actively teaching the puppies basic commands like potty training and sitting. While I work a full-time job during the year, in the summers I take on two part-time jobs, which gives me even more flexibility and time to dedicate to caring for pets. When caring for pets, I treat them as if they were my own and make sure they feel truly loved and cared for. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I understand that every pet is different, so I adjust to their needs and routines. My goal is always to make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible—for both pets and their owners.

About: I’ve been caring for every type of animal you can imagine since I was 10! I’ve done so personally and professionally and I’ve worked on 3 different ranches growing up.

I’m available before 06 and between 1130-1300 and after 1700 M-F and open availability over the weekend and holidays! We could work something out if you need different availability during the week, just reach out! I am unable to care for pets in my home however, I will follow whatever regimen you leave for your loved one and make sure they’re accounted for and loved!

About: Hello! Animals have been my passion since I was a little girl. I have worked at a dog daycare for 3 years and now am currently working as a Tech at a Veterinary Clinic now going on for 3 years! I am so lucky to be surrounded by animals everyday and always learning new things about each and every animal. I would love to pet sit your furry friend and hopefully become a new best friend for them too! If you are military, I have base access as well! I am available weekdays and weekends.I would also be available to watch your pet at your home if needed ! I would love to chat about any days you may need and we can work out something :) I am available to help out with feeding, walking, giving medications and or just hanging out with your fur baby. I am open to talking about any other things you may need !

About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. It started when I was young, probably around the age of 10, but of course I couldn't drive, so my mom had to help out. I have always had a love for animals, and I always will. I am currently a college student studying childhood education and psychology, along with playing soccer. That may sound like I have a pretty busy schedule, but since I live at home, it is not bad at all. I am also a substitute teacher, which allows me to choose when I work based on how my schedule looks for that given week. Pet safety is of the utmost importance to me. Families are relying on me to care for their beloved animals while away for a day or a few days. Playing outside or relaxing inside are all things I love to do, based on the dog's needs. Walks are always fun, too!

“Alyssa was a great sitter, she followed all directions to the T. She kept us updated with plenty of pictures of our fur babies! 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend ,thank you Alyssa for everything!🫶🏾”

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs. I currently have two pups and a kitty. My friends and family consider me the go-to caretaker when needed. I prefer pets over most people 🐶🐱 I work full-time. I work in the Utica area on Mondays and Thursdays. I am available most times for drop-ins/walks on those nights, in the Utica area. My schedule will reflect my true availability. I will never accept a job that my schedule will not allow for, as pets deserve the best care! I live on almost 2 acres of land with fields around. I will always use a leash for all safety concerns until told otherwise. I have crate trained all of my dogs throughout my life, therefore feel comfortable crating but only if requested. I will request instructions as all pets have different needs. I will be sure to always follow instructions given.

“Angel was great. Super communicative and thoughtful. Will def use her again!”

About: Hi! We’re a loving family offering calm, attentive pet care in a peaceful home. We know how hard it is to find sitters who truly treat your pets like family — that’s what we’re here for. We’re hands-on, experienced, and genuinely care about helping your pet feel safe, relaxed, and loved. We don’t have any pets of our own (just our daughter’s goldfish 🐠) so your pet gets our full attention! What You Can Expect ✅ 1–3 photo updates per day ✅ Personalized routines ✅ Several daily walks ✅ Tons of affection (if wanted!) ✅ Low-stress, quiet home ✅ Gentle, patient settling-in process ✅ Medication administration (if needed) 🧡 Specialized Add-On Care We offer extra support for pets with higher needs (please select at booking): Anxiety Support: +$50/night Puppy Supervision: +$50/night Senior Care: +$50/night Medical/Special Needs: +$50/night ✨ Optional Add-Ons Brush-Outs: $15–$50 FaceTime Check-ins: $15 (15 min) High-Energy Playtime: $60 (1 hour) Extra Updates: $10 each Home-Cooked Meals: $25/day 🧼 Other Fees (Only If Needed) Cleaning (Excessive Accidents): $20 Per Accident Damage: Cost of repair Emergency Vet Transport: $50 + vet cost or transfer to emergency contact 📋 Drop-Off & Behavior Policy At your meet-and-greet or drop-off, we’ll ask you to sign a brief form outlining our policies. We’ve worked with pets with mild to moderate anxiety, but we cannot accept pets with severe separation anxiety or behaviors that require 24/7 supervision — those pets must be picked up immediately due to causing high-tension and stressful situations for both your pet, and our family. We do not accept pets with: 🚫 Aggression or reactivity 🚫 Destructive behavior 🚫 Ongoing house-training issues 🚫 Unsafe behavior around children 🚫 Excessive barking, howling, whining 🚫 Inability to be left alone briefly for long stays 🚫 Have owners who are unresponsive to urgent concerns 🚨 Undisclosed Behavior Fees: Severe Separation Anxiety: Immediate pickup or $250/Night Excessive Barking: Immediate pickup or $250/Night Aggression or Reactivity: Immediate pickup or $250/Night Unsafe Around Kids: Immediate pickup or $250/Night 💛 Why This Matters We’re calm, patient, and truly love caring for animals — but on rare occasions, we’ve had difficult experiences with neglectful pet owners that created unsafe or stressful situations. That’s why we’ve set clear boundaries: to protect the peaceful, loving environment we’ve built and to prioritize clients who respect their pets and us — especially with a young child in our home. These policies aren’t meant to discourage who we service at our core - amazing loving pet parents. They simply help filter out mismatches so we can focus on what we do best: giving your pet a safe, happy, and loving stay. Thank you for understanding, and supporting care rooted in honesty, trust, and love.

Limitations: ❌ No aggressive animals ❌ No animals with fleas currently ❌ No animals who are not child friendly ❌ Must have proof of rabies vaccines for dogs ❌ Must regularly check dogs or cats for ticks ❌ No animals with severe anxiety (unless discussed prior)
