Dog Sitting Queensbury

About: I have taken care of my own dogs for my whole life. I have dog sat neighbors dogs and cats and they have relied on me to walk, feed, play and keep their pets safe in their home or at my home. I am currently at home and have flexible availability and would be available during the days and for overnights for your pets! Having a pet around after I lost my own makes me so happy! I have a safe environment and I am a very lovable person. I will keep all pets safe in my house or at your own house.

“Tara was wonderful! She did a great job taking care of all our animals while we were away. She ensured everyone was fed, had clean water and took their medication. We will definitely be using her again!! Highly recommend!”

“We just moved to a new area and our dogs were a little anxious, but we unfortunately had a wedding to attend and needed a sitter. Jaimi was great with our two dogs, sending lots of photos, and even looked after our chickens! Our dogs warmed up to her right away. I will definitely be asking Jaimi to dogsit again in the future!”

About: I grew up having dogs and cats but also have had a bunny, guinea pigs, and birds. Anytime family members have vacations or are out of town I typically watch their pets so I definitely have experience with animals. I also worked as a veterinary assistant a few years back. I currently go to school Suny Adirondack full time, I do partial in person classes and the rest online. I also work a part time job therefore I am mostly available on the weekends however, I do have some free time throughout the week. I will not be pet sitting in my home, however I ensure the safety of your pet under my supervision whether it be on longs walks or your own backyard or in your home.

About: Hi, I’m Shawn! I have spent the last few years working in a professional doggy daycare and boarding facility. While I love animals, I realized that massive, chaotic pack environments aren't the best fit for my philosophy of care—or for many dogs. I transitioned to independent pet sitting so I could give individual animals the quiet, focused, and low-stress attention they truly deserve. Because of my professional background, I am highly trained in dog body language, safety protocols, and keeping pets calm and happy. Your dog will never have to compete for attention or feel overwhelmed here! I do work part time but i am very interested, thoroughly enjoy working with animals and looking to pet sit/walk/board full time!! Thank you! I have a nice big open yard at my home, I do have 3 cats inside my home. In clients homes i always make sure the boundaries and any feeding/medication instructions are clear and precise!

“Thank you for taking my Derby last minute. You were professional with my expectations, The times we talked about, Great communication if something came up. Thank you for going the extra step and picking up the mess he made when he got into my basket that had snacks in it. I really appreciated that. The pictures you took of him while taking him out, was super sweet. He’s such a good boy. Recommend you anytime.”

“Lillian was very responsive and reliable. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future if needed.”

“Anneke is amazing! I went out of town last minute and she was able to step in to take care of my girl!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience in animal husbandry and veterinary care. I cared for a multitude of animals, including cats, dogs, and other exotic pets. Whether it is daily exercise, extra snuggles, or an extra zen environment, I have the experience for your furbabies. I can administer daily medications, follow complex diets, and look critically at the animals in my care to determine if veterinary assistance is needed. Pictures of your pet can be provided upon request (I usually send one even if it isn't requested but if you want more, I will provide. :) Petcare is my life 24/7. Walks, playtime, and pleasant company are the three biggest parts of daily routine. For cats, making sure they have adequate creature comforts and, if the cat enjoys the attention, plenty of interaction with yours truly. I try to maintain your pets stability by sticking to your routine and habits to ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible. We will follow your schedule so they know what to expect throughout our interaction.

“Payton was very nice to work with and took care of my 2 cats. One is a bit nervous and this was his first time with a sitter and je even let her pet him. I would recommend her.”

About: I’ve taken care of all different breeds for about 9 years. I started dog sitting in highschool within my family and friends and then was referred to other clients! I am home all day so your pup will never be alone and will be actively playing all day! My goal is to make your fur baby as comfortable as possible here, like they are at home. I provide all dog bowls, beds, toys etc. I use non toxic cleaning supplies and provide filtered water only. **Daycare services will end effective March 1st (open 7am- close 5pm)** I have a dog of my own to keep yours company while I’m gone. I have a big fully fenced in yard and your pet is allowed free range throughout the house.

About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was about 15. I have been responsible for taking care of neighbors animals which included walking, playing, feeding, grooming and potty time. Weekdays I am generally available after 3 pm. I do have a pretty flexible schedule. On the weekends I can be available at any time. I have three cats of my own, Eddy, Nala and Veronica. They are indoor cats but I am currently training them on a harness and leash to take walks on my fenced in backyard.

About: I got my first dog when I was in 3rd grade and couldn't imagine life without them now. I spent the last 12 years working with animals as well as having a full house at home. Both my dogs, champ and Oliver, I raised from 8 weeks old and did all their training myself. I have been doing walks and drop ins for 2 years now and have references available upon request! I am a stay at home mom so it's very easy to fit in providing the excellent care for your fur babies to my schedule! I can do anything needed, whether it's basic a stop during the day or if you need more specific detailed care like medicine administered. We will adjust my care routine to the needs of your fur baby.

About: Animals are too good for humankind, so they should be treated like absolute royalty. I grew up with cats and had a small but successful dog-walking and pet-sitting business in my neighborhood growing up. I am more than happy to treat your pet as if they were my own <3 I currently work full time in Lake George and I'm looking for some additional income, and what better way to do that than to care for your pets! To make sure your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are away, I would love to learn their typical routine at home and their interests!

About: Common courtesy and communication is paramount. **Willing to travel up to an hour away. Just because Rover says you are outside my service area it does not always mean you are. I have clients an hour North and South of me. **Necessary update as of 6/21/23** I will require current credit card info be on file at your vet or provided for me in your pet write up ONLY in case of emergency. In the event of an emergency and I could not get a hold of the human, puppies have no pockets to hold a card, the vet required me to pay. I have raised 3 separate RESCUE Rottweilers to be exceptional ambassadors of their breed. I currently do not have any pets since my big boy passed away in 2016. I hope to again one day have my own dogs. Until then I will love YOUR pet. **I DO NOT board animals at my home. Only repeat clients would MAYBE be possible for a very short amount of time.** Clients pets have included many breeds, species for days, weeks. Many Golden Retrievers, Doodles, mixes aka Heinz57s, Old English Sheep dog, lots of kitties, a chameleon, turtles, a bearded dragon, a small bird, fish, Rottweilers, a very challenging but lovable English Bulldog and Huskies one of which was very reactive. Oh and a LOT of house plants! PLEASE NOTE: I am deathly allergic to horses which I am very sad about. Any type of animal requiring LARGE amounts of hay would also be a problem i.e, goats, cows, alpacas I am sorry to say. Small rodent animals requiring hay for food or bedding has not been a big deal. My personnel dogs were very public dogs, parks, events etc. With the ever present fact in mind that as good as my animal was it is still an animal. Never purposely putting them in a situation to be loose (unless at home or a fenced park) or get into anything that could harm them. Read quite a few books/manuals by military working dog trainers in hopes of training a service oriented Rottie. Came very close to passing the Good Citizen certification but my dogs never liked the “stay” part when I had to walk away with my back turned. They just had to be next to me. So close. PLEASE NOTE: I have my preferences set to NOT to show any photos of YOUR pet publicly. I would ask permission first to share. Photos only NEVER infomation of course. My schedule allows me to be available to be in YOUR HOME, with your pets all day/night, unless noted ahead of time and of course trips to the store. I have many types of animals that insist on sleeping in bed just like they do when their people are home which in fine by me. Just take some Benadryl and snuggle on in. I try to stick closely to how the home runs normally so the pets do not have any surprises that can make them anxious. Sleep, food, walks, play time etc. I supervise dogs in their own yard fenced or not. I am very organized and like an outlined idea of their schedule to be written down for me to follow as closely as YOU would.

About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I have just completed my first year of Veterinary Technician school and have done 3 different internships in the field. I am very well versed with simple care, medications, and most importantly love for the animals! My schedule fluctuates very frequently as I have a part time job and im also completeing an internship, however I can easily work my schedule around whatever the animals need! I have a fenced yard with a very friendly pup at home. I can also let your pet in and out of crates, give treats and/or medications, take them on walks, and anything else they may need.

“Victoria is very helpful and responsible. She kept me updated on any issue she saw with my dog during the visit and ensure that my dog has fresh water.”

About: My mother owns 4 dogs and I had to constantly care for them while she was away at work. I will do anything for your dog that needs to be done. I love dogs and will consider them like family no matter what happens I feel for every animal that I come across because I do not want them to be in any pain or without things that they need on a daily basis. I hope that you and your dogs will be satisfied with the care that your dogs get each and every day. I never do anything without the owners consent because it is not my place to make the call as were on what the dogs truly need. I keep everything simple for you and your dogs and will not let anything happen to you or your dogs.

About: I have experience with most animals from farm animals to precious house pets. I am experienced with reactive dogs, behavioral problems, administrating medication, senior pets, following special pet care accommodations and more. I’ve been a nurse for over 10 years and am dependable and caring. Animals are my passion and I am eager to cuddle, play with, and love your pets while you are away. I currently am a nurse at a local facility and try to keep my availability updated however my schedule changes at times due to my work schedule so feel free to verify availability . Thank you for your understanding. I have a female and male cat who are familiar with other pets. Your pet will have full range of our home. Pets will be walked frequently and on leash.
