House Sitting in Rhinebeck

“Lee is the best! He stayed with and cared for our two labradors for a week while we went to Florida. Our girls love him and thoroughly enjoyed their time with Lee. He also kept the house spotless and made sure it was clean for us upon our return. I think the dogs appreciated his musical talents too while we were away. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone in need of a sitter, dog walker, or house stay with their pets. They would be well-loved and cared for with Lee!”

“Alice is the best! Professional, responsive and so good with my dog (who is uncomfortable around new people) and cat. Couldn’t recommend her more!!!!”

Polly B.

“Monica took great care of my German Shepherd, Max! Max was well cared for and my house was left very clean and neat. I highly recommend Monica.”

“Carolyn was great. She arrived early, was greeted by Bodhi and after a little playing he jumped in her car and off they went for a walk on the rail trail. He really enjoyed the exercise and I’m sure he’ll be glad to see her again.”

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for over 25 years, both in my own home and for others. I am diligent with administering oral medication. When I am not caring for animals and house sitting I am a nursing student and child care professional. I will give your fur baby plenty of care and affection! I currently am renting and cannot have pets in my home so it is a truly a joy to be able to spend time with your pet. I am outdoorsy and upon request, I love taking dogs on walks on the rail trail or parks and can provide daily exercise for high energy dogs. I am able to house/pet sit. I am available for walks on evenings after 5:30pm. When I’m not hiking or getting outside I am a homebody and am very available for pet cuddles. I care for pets in their clients home. I feed them, change their water, administer medications, take dogs on walks, and/or change cats litter boxes. I am very active and love being outside so happy to take your dog out on a trail, play with your pet.

“Will definitely have Cassandra house sit for our pets again when we go out of town. She was prompt, communicative, and so sweet with our little ones.”

“Riss was fantastic! I came home to my staff/pit mix being very relaxed and comfortable. It seems like he had a nice time with riss. She was very communicative and shared updates and photos. I highly recommend! Also, the house was spotless, that’s very much appreciated”

“Kayla stayed with my two puppies and was amazing!! She updated me daily about their day and sent many pictures of my fur babies! Will definitely reach out again!”

About: I have trained two puppies, and taken care of a senior dog who sadly recently passed. I understand the patience required for both ends of the spectrum. Currently my puppy is just 9 months old, and very sweet with all other pets. I can help with socialisation, or just general care and walking, whatever you need! I am a graduate student in a very flexible program, just working a few hours a week at Bard College, the rest of the time at home. I have access to a yard, and my friendly puppy to play with. I am happy to follow feeding schedules, and can maintain training routines. I have a crate if your dog needs their safe space.

“Our experience with Alexa was second to none! She stepped in to dog sit very last minute and treated our Ruby like royalty. We received regular updates with photos and Alexa was always quick to respond. We knew our pup and home were in good hands. Wouldn't hesitate to have Alexa dog sit for us again!!”

Michael S.

“Very responsive with communication, very loving and attentive to our fur babies!!!”

“Arsen and Sophia did a great job. They communicated well, sent funny pics and we returned to a calm dog who clearly liked them and was sad to see them leave. House was clean. Would hire them again anytime.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and proud fur mama of three. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I’m here to provide loving, reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. You can trust and rely on me to care for your pets and treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. I also have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to plan my day around pet visits to make sure they get the attention, feeding, playtime, and care they need. When caring for pets in their own homes, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I will follow your instructions closely for feeding, playtime, and any special care your pet needs. I also make sure to spend quality time with them so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I would give my own.

“Bethany was wonderful. This is was the first time she took care of Lucas and she was extremely patient with him. She sent updates and pics the entire stay and I know that Lucas was well taken care of!”

“Emily was so great with our senior dog Willow! She house sat her for the weekend and did a fantastic job. She communicated clearly about everything, sent photos, and most importantly was able to give Willow the twice daily insulin shots she needs. I highly recommend working with Emily!”

Michelle H.

“Janice is fantastic. I was in desperate need of a cat sitter for an emergency trip just days away. Janice responded right away and arranged a meet and greet for the next day. She connected with my cat (who is usually a little shy of strangers) right away, and I immediately relaxed knowing he and my home would be in good hands. Janice was very communicative and took care of everything. I came home to a happy boy who had clearly had fun playing while we were away, and I am so grateful to her. I will definitely entrust Janice again for future pet care needs.”

Jessica H.

“From the moment that I met Emily, I understood that her relationships with animals are deeply reciprocal. She is a patient and caring friend and enjoys the love that they offer in return. Emily stayed with my senior Boxer for 10 days at my home. She was a conscientious sitter -- taking perfect care of my home and of my pet. Knuckie typically experiences a few days of depression and hives when I leave but with Emily he was in good spirits, eating and in his normal routine. Honestly, he looked fantastic when I returned -- like he'd had a week at a spa. Emily's communication was perfect and she even went above and beyond to have a food order for us when our late flight arrived! I give Emily my highest recommendation!”

Jesse P.

“Kayley was great! So communicative and helpful. We knew our dog was in GREAT hands and we loved seeing all the pictures of her having fun!”

Amanda H.

“Sierra did a great job watching our dog. We would absolutely use her again.”

Mary Jo H.

“Our dogs are so disappointed we are coming home. When Dan arrived to watch them we had never heard them greet someone so happily. I would not have gone on this trip over these dates unless Dan was available. Walter and Arthur love him and so do we.”
