“Kate is the BEST! Idefix loved every second of hanging out and playing in the yard! I’m so glad she is flexible to come by for regular visits and playtime at our house! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Thank you, Kate!”


“Kailie was so great with our cat, Kovu! He’s usually pretty scared of people but he totally felt comfortable with her. We loved the daily pictures and are grateful that he got so much love while we were away. Thank you Kailie!”


About: I may not have dogs of my own, but I’ve been the go-to sitter for my sister’s and in-laws’ pups over the years. I’ve cared for my sister’s diabetic dog, following medication and feeding routines closely, and looked after my in-laws’ dogs while they were away on vacation—making sure they were walked, loved, and well cared for. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like family. Whether your pup needs playtime, belly rubs, or a little extra medical attention, I’m here to help! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work four days a week and am available in the afternoons and evenings after work. I’m also free all day on Sundays and Mondays. I love spending my free time with animals—whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to providing consistent, loving care whenever I’m available. Although I live in Granville, I work in Queensbury, so I’m available in that area as well. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medications, or playtime—and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I give them plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and send updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. My goal is to treat your home with respect and your pet like family

“Took great care of my 2 cats. We were in the middle of a move and she made sure the cats had all the food and toys that they wanted at their disposal the whole time.”


About: I have 100 acres of land for your pet to run on a long lead!! Exercise is included with playtime fun!! Provide bath time too I am retired and have 100% free time to provide to your Pet!! Mon thru Sunday, any time!! Playtime , bath time and exercise !! I will be adding a fence to my yard and have a dog already! Your furry friend can socialize and be safe in Fenced yard!!

“I reached out to Brittney at the last minute one evening and needed someone for the next day. She was great and responded quick to help out. She treated my dog amazing and would definitely recommend and will be reaching out to her again! Thank you!!”


“My family hit gold when we found Rachel to take care of our many unwieldy furbabies. Having someone reliable and trustworthy to give our kitties insulin is a must, and on top of that, she’s communicative and super friendly! We look forward to booking with her again in the future :)”


“Meghan was great! The last time we hired a walker, one of our pups didn’t walk. He wouldn’t leave the house and we had to call in a favor from family. We asked Meghan to meet the dogs and cat before her first walk, and we found her to be calm, polite, and very pleasant around the dogs. They warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone, she walked the dogs twice a day, including the one who was socially anxious. Our house looked great when we got home and the animals were in very good spirits. We will definitely use Meghan again!”


“Morgan did a great job catsitting for our four cats. Two of our cats are on special diets, so we use microchip feeders that require different foods and portions, as well as cleaning every few days, and daily washing of food bowls. We also have three litter boxes to scoop and three water fountains to keep filled. Needless to say it can be overwhelming to keep up with. Morgan managed all of these very well and still had a good amount of time to sit and visit and play with our cats. We were confident that all the cats were well cared-for while we were away. He was quick in responding to messages and giving daily updates. We would certainly ask Morgan to catsit for us again in the future.”


About: I grew up on a farm and have had a love for animals my entire life.I have always had pets of my own and use to breed English Bulldogs.I go abooand beyond for my pets and can give great references. I have a very structured schedule, and if it works, I could take care of your animals to fit around my schedule as well as theirs I prefer to sit in your home as I have 4 dogs of my own.I am honest ,trustworthy and reliable.Lots of snuggles and love given.I am the queen of dispensing medicine as well if need be.

About: With experience as a kennel attendant, I have worked with hundreds of different dogs, and am comfortable walking the smallest toy breeds to giant breeds like mastiffs or Great Danes. I have worked with a variety of different personalities and am capable of caring for terminally ill, disabled, or special needs pets! I am currently a college student and mostly spend my time studying if not hanging out with my own pets. I’m available for drop-in visits Monday morning-afternoon, all day Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 3, and Fridays until 2 at this time. I am also available Saturdays and Sundays after 4! I care for everyone’s pets as if they’re my own - following their owner’s schedule as closely as possible to ensure their comfort and keep them stress-free! I also like to send owners updates with photos to ease any anxiety about being away from your baby!

About: I have over 10 years of experience as both a dog-sitter and cat-sitter. From high-energy large dogs to senior cats with special needs, I have done it all — and I love them all the same. My lifestyle works well for pets that require someone to be with them 24/7 due to factors like separation anxiety, medical needs, potty training, and more. I currently work from home, so I am available around-the-clock. My schedule works well for animals that need a high level of care or attention. I have a large, un-fenced yard for potty breaks and will always use a leash. In my home, we have a very small (4 lb.), low-energy female senior poodle and two low-key cats that keep to themselves. Your animals will need to be comfortable around both small dogs and cats in order to stay with us.

“Tabitha was great with the dogs! She did drop in visits while we were gone for the night. The dogs loved her so of course we would absolutely rebook her when we need her. Thank you Tabitha!”


About: I’m a lifelong cat lover who understands that every feline has their own unique personality — from curious kittens who want to explore every corner to laid-back seniors who just want a sunny spot and soft pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, temperaments, and special needs, including administering medication, maintaining feeding schedules, and keeping litter boxes fresh. I know cats thrive on routine and trust, so I take the time to earn their comfort — whether that means interactive play, quiet companionship, or just respecting their space. I’m also experienced in reading feline body language, so your cat will always feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles when you can’t be there. I believe pets feel safest when they’re treated like family. In my care, your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and a calm, comfortable environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles — so they feel right at home. I will always put your pet’s safety and well-being first.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, and love any dog like it’s my own! Friends have relied on me to watch, walk and feed their dogs. I have two large Goldens of my own, and will certainly spoil yours like I do mine! Walks, cuddles, fetch, whatever you need! I’m currently working full time, but am free before or after work, flexible times depending on location. I am available anytime on the weekends! If you’re close enough to work I also have availability during the day! I currently live in Bristol but work in Rutland Vt. All prices are negotiable depending on location and amount of care your pet needs. Example: House sitting a couple hours or half the day is different than being required to stay the night, and the price will be adjusted accordingly. A watchful eye is a helpful eye! I will stay with your pet as long as you need. I’ve trained two dogs from puppies so I know what to look out for and what to avoid!

About: Hello folks, I am an experienced animal caretaker with a background in fostering pets. I have cared for dogs, cats, other domestic pets, and farm animals. My clients, friends and family have entrusted me to watch their animals since I was 12. I believe that direct communication with pet owners will allow me to provide a safe and engaging experience for your animals. I work part-time from 10 am - 2 pm throughout the week. My work days change frequently but I am available outside of these hours for your caretaking needs. I will not be providing services in my home at this time. For pet sitting and walking services, I am available to stay in your home or do daily check ins. My goal is to be an accessible source for your animal while you travel or are at work. I will be available 24/7 via email or text after you book my services. Please provide me with any medical, dietary, or enrichment needs for your animal when you book my services. I always adhere to my clients wishes and will do my best to stick with your pet’s daily routine while in my care. If you have a dog who is friendly, I can provide additional enrichment with my three year old pup Zeus.
