House Sitting in Rhinecliff

“Emily was fantastic! She was super communicative, dependable and responsive. She watched my two dogs and two cats -- and they all adored her. I felt great leaving her in charge of everybody and will definitely hire her again when I need a petsitter.”

“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”

Deborah P.

“She was so good! Wonderful communication, and my dog loved her!”

Rain H.

“This was my second time booking Alina. She is very conscientious. This time my cat needed meds. My cat was very well taken care. Thanks Alina!”

SAMANTHA B.

“Jess is the perfect sitter - super communicative (frequently checking in and sending photos), responsible, responsive, and motivated to make sure your pets are well taken care of and happy. She instantly bonded with our Emma Jean and was so loving and thoughtful with her. Jess was also a wonderful guest, taking great care of our home. She made it possible for two (kinda anxious) pet parents to have a relaxing holiday - we are so grateful! Plus, she recognizes how truly adorable our pup is. :)”

“Laianna was a wonderful sitter! She gave tons of updates, was attentive to any unique requests, and left my home and my pup in perfect condition when I returned. Such a gift to have peace of mind that your dog is in good hands - thanks!”

“Katherine took our two rowdy boys totally in stride and made me feel totally confident that she had them safe and sound. Lovely pics and great communication. Would book again”

About: I specialize in attentive, stress-free cat care, with a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs. I’ve also cared for dogs and know how to ensure they feel safe, seen, and comfortable. My calm presence and attention to detail set me apart when it comes to compassionate, reliable pet care. My schedule allows for catering to all of a pet's needs: feeding, grooming, walking, playing and enrichment, medication administration, etc. I can also do multiple drop-ins per day/extended drop-ins for pets that need company throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex, so I would not be able to host your pet in my home, but I have reliable transportation and would love to come to you!

“We love Marielle! She is so laid back and easy to communicate with. She has house sat with our pup a couple of times now and we are always happy with the care she provides. I can tell from the pictures she sends that Henry (our dog) is pleased with her, too! So glad to have found her and would definitely recommend her as trustworthy and fuss free dog sitter. Thank you, Marielle!”

Kristin S.

“Riss is amazing with my dog- sticks to our schedule, great communication and left my house spotless. I felt relaxed and confident with my dog in her care for 3 nights!”

April R.

“I don’t think we could have possibly found a better sitter than Melissa. Our pup can be extremely shy, but Melissa worked with her through her stay and was eventually able to win her over. She was very communicative the entire time we were gone and gave us great piece of mind. Melissa definitely goes above and beyond, and we’re very grateful to have found her.”

Austin W.

“Melissa sat with my dog Stella yesterday afternoon. She arrived on time, was loving and attentive to Stella and I felt totally confident that she would be able to handle any emergency that might arise. Also, Stella loved her! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”

About: Love talking to animals and figuring out their language. Sometimes it’s a way a cat rubs against you or a dog smells your feet love I have weekends open enough I could spend a night w a furry little person or a flexible work week to check in on a loved furry or scaly friend for water food and petting. I am a gardener biker and outdoor person rain or shine so a long walk in a rail trail fits in my schedule When watching my clients chickens outside I checked on their hen house and cleaned it out put in new hay and make sure they got food and water twice a day but at least one free range walk

They have ample space to move around indoors.

“Monica was wonderful with our little guy, Tony! She took great care of him and just knew he was in good hands while I attended a wedding. Monica communicated throughout the night which put me at ease knowing he was doing alright. Thank you for watching Tony! I would absolutely recommend Monica :)”

“Wow! Wow wow! Gaby was the best companion Kevin could ask for in my absence. She took time to get to know him, listened to all my paranoid instructions, sent regular photos and updates, and left my house completely spotless. Most importantly, I came home to a completely well fed, well exercised super chill dog who seems to have had the best week ever!”

About: Reliable pet lover. I have three cats of my own and if they could talk they would tell you I’m timely with their feedings and give the best scritches in town! Belly rub expert and experienced in the field I work full time as a licensed veterinary technician and have an almost 2 year old, I typically pet sit before or after work and on the weekends I will care for your pets in your home just as you would. I love to take pictures to send to the owners as well so they can know their pets are being properly cared for and having fun!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15. I started by watching a neighbor's dogs almost every weekend while they went out - I would walk them, feed them & bathe them. I also have had my own dogs since I was a kid. Right now we have an adorable schnauzer mix that has yet to meet a dog she doesn't get along with! I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets throughout the weekday & weekends. If you're interested, I'd be happy to take your dog on a hike for a longer walk/more exercise. Yes, I have a fenced in yard. When your dog is with me, I will treat them like my own and they will get loved on throughout their time with me.

“Tatiana was amazing!! She was extremely communicative and accommodating start to finish and treated our pups like her own. Daily updates and pics helped confirm that both our pups and house were in the best of hands and she navigated a couple days of challenging pup dynamics with grace and ease. We so appreciated all the extra effort that Tatiana gave to make sure our pups were happy and we hope she’ll be able to help us again many times in the future!!!”

About: Rhinebeck local with a 30 minute lunch break. Available for overnight in-home and/or dog walking services. Experience with giving oral medication. Big dogs and puppies welcome! Kitties and small animals, too! Minimal experience with reptiles (only leopard geckos) but I can watch them with care instructions. Generally I work early morning to early afternoon. No earlier than 5:30 and no later than 6:00 p.m. Weekends included. My days off are usually Tuesday or Wednesday or Thursday. There are some exceptions as my schedule varies week to week. But I can and frequently do work around customers' schedules, especially with advanced notice! I am diligent in keeping an eye on animals in the home. Especially puppies/potty training animals. When we are out taking a walk (for dogs) I will cross to the other side of the street and not greet other dogs, even if yours is friendly. Better to be safe than sorry! Same goes for dog parks. We can go, but I will keep a close eye on any animals and leave if things get too hot.
