Pet Sitting in Rensselaer

“Angela is super sweet and responsive. She brought her kids along to care for my dog so I know he got all the love and attention during their drop ins. Definitely will work with her again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life. I have experience working with both large and small breeds of dogs. I have a terrier mix and a lab puppy of my own, who all loving having new pals around. We’re used to lots of barking and playing all day every day! Our house has a large yard that for running and playing. My pups love being outside but are also allowed anywhere in the house with us. We believe that dogs are family and treat them as such. Your pups can enjoy lots of playtime, cuddles and treats while they stay with us! We both work from home so we are home all day! We love using rover when we travel and we’ll make sure to take of your pups like they are our own! I work from home, so I’m home all day! We only need to crate them if I’m gone for a short time for errands and we have extra kennels. We have a huge yard for playing! We can crate dogs if needed, but we also have a "dog" bedroom in our house where they can stay.

About: Hello everyone, my name is Jamie. I’m a recent college graduate looking for another way to make an income. I have worked with animals for several years in addition to owning a few of my own. I currently have two dogs of larger breeds but have previously owned smaller dogs as well. Although this site is primarily for doggos and kitty cats, I’d be more than willing to work with other animals too. I have worked with horses, donkeys, and farm birds (chickens, turkeys, and ducks). I’ve also dabbled in reptile care as well. I’m also a very quick learner so if there’s any specific that your pet needs just let me know! As of right now my schedule is super flexible as I am currently looking for a new job in the area. This allows me to have plenty of time to stay and play with your pups as long as you need. I would care for you pets as I would care for my own. I would make sure that the pet is comfortable in their environment. I would first want to establish a trusting relationship between myself and the animal to make sure the animal feels comfortable and safe before walks/sitting.

About: I treat every pet like family and understand that no two animals are the same. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special medical needs. I’m trained in administering oral and injectable medications, and I’m patient, consistent, and attentive to behavior cues. I’ve also raised my own pets and cared for high-energy breeds that need extra playtime and structure. Whether your dog needs gentle care or active engagement, I tailor each visit to their comfort level and routine. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. I love being active and outdoors, so daily walks and check-ins are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel comfortable—plus lots of snuggles and attention throughout the day. I stick closely to their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, and bedtime so they feel secure and at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep things tidy, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Jennifer did drop-in visits for my cat while I was out of town. She took very good care of my Kitty and she sent pictures. She is very responsible and we had great communication. I am very happy with Jennifer and will definitely be using her services again.”
