House Sitting Ridgebury

“Savana has been a godsend for my puppies! I work long hours and didn’t want to put my pets in a kennel. Since our first meet and greet, Savana has been professional, wonderful with my four-legged friends And they look forward to seeing her on every visit.”

“Vicky house sat for us while I was overseas for 11 days. She stayed in touch and communicated very well. I appreciate the care she gave to my dogs and my home. It gave my peace of mind to know she was there. I would definitely recommend her services 🙂”

“Yeni was absolutely great! She watched our pups, Izzie and Georgie, for the night while we attended a wedding, and we couldn’t have been happier. She took wonderful care of them and left the house exactly the way we left it. We highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with our pups again!”

“Tessa took care of two cats and two dogs. One of the cats required a pill every day and one of the dogs needed pills as well. One of the dogs was a senior and needed help with stairs. Tessa did a fantastic job with all of it. I have no fence so she had the added job of leashing and walking the dogs numerous times a day. I would not hesitate to employ and recommend her.”

“Kristina is absolutely wonderful. We booked her kind of last minute as our previous sitter fell through. She was accommodating and made our anxious dog comfortable while she stayed in our home with him. I highly recommend Kristina & will absolutely book her again in the future if she is available.”

About: I am in the Middletown- goshen area of Orange County and can’t board any animals at our new home. I prefer a meet and greet before booking and have excellent references. I can walk, spend time with , and play with your dogs and/or cats. I’m experienced with administering medications to both. I have references from my customers in Sullivan county where I used to live if needed . Recently retired I now have a very open schedule for your vacations or weekend needs. I have been an Eagle nest monitor for the NYDEC from 2011 - 2019 on the Delaware River and on Yankee Lake NY 2013- 2022 and have been involved in animal rescue . *That means I have both domestic animal and wildlife experience. I have been a local volunteer and continue to involved in my community. I am newly retired and can come anytime that fits into your schedule . Hopefully I can be the person you call for your vacation or special occasions. Sadly, I no longer have a place to board any animals. But I do have some great references and would provide them upon request. I do have a medium size pup of my own I can bring if you have a friendly dog.

“We could not be happier with Jade! She came to our rescue when a kennel reservation fell through and stayed in our home for four nights with our eight month old Samoyed puppy and three year old bengal cat while we traveled out of state to a family wedding. Jade exudes an immense amount of compassion and sensitivity, as well as the utmost professionalism. Her communication is awesome, and her experience/knowledge as a petsitter and caretaker of animals really shows. She took remarkable care of our beloved cat and dog, and just as importantly she cared beautifully for our house while we were away. This was our first time working with a pet sitter, and actually opening our home to someone while we weren’t there, which was totally nerve-wracking! We are so grateful that Jade was the person we connected with.”

“Nicole was excellent from start to finish. She was prompt, communicative, and caring for our pets and home. She sent us a ton of photos and left the house in a pristine condition. I would absolutely recommend her for all of your pet and house sitting needs.”

About: I've grown up taking care of both cats and dogs. I love animals and look forward to helping you care your your precious pets. In the past I have worked as a pet and house sitter for a couple families. I always enjoy any time spent with animals. I have flexible schedule making me available to care for your fur babies! I live in Guerneville, but frequently go to Sebastopol throughout the week. So mainly looking to work for ones in these areas. But open to adventuring in to further surrounding areas if its a good fit for us both! Currently I am not able to board pets in my home because I am renting. But I would be happy to stop by and spend time with your pets whenever is needed!

“Natisha was perfect as always. She was prompt, responsive, and immediately made our new dog (with separation anxiety) feel at ease!”

“Michael is a wonderful dog sitter! He stayed at our home for 3 nights, and took great care of our 3 pups. We received multiple updates with photos daily. We will absolutely ask Michael to dog sit for us again.”

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. My family has only ever had cats or dogs, but I have had the opportunity to care for cats, dogs, bunnies, snakes, and more! I’ve had and cared for young puppies and kittens to senior pets, and enjoy caring for all animals. I am a teacher on Summer break and would love the opportunity to help care for your pets while you are busy or away! Please feel free to ask about availability, right now I am very flexible! :) I am a teacher who is on summer break so I currently have a flexible schedule. This means I can drop by to care for pets as needed throughout the day! While I do have pets at home, I am currently renting and unable to board any pets in my house. Instead, I am able to offer drop in services or dog walking! I also am a very active person and would love the opportunity to bring your dog on a run or a hike (with your permission of course)! I am available to stop by for multiple walks/play sessions throughout the day. I have experience with caring for animals overnight as well as housekeeping while pet owners are away. Please let me know if you’d prefer me to do drop-ins during the day or need me to stay overnight for your pet!

About: I usually work with shy, aggressive or fearful dogs or cats. It can take weeks, months or years to befriend them but when you do it's extremely rewarding, especially when an animal someone deems "dangerous" comes out to be the biggest sweetheart. I have tons of patience and I believe every species of animal deserves love and respect. As humans, it's our duty to be the voices and guardians of the animals in our care. They look to us for comfort, guidance, love and peace. That's why I do anything in my power to donate or volunteer at animal shelters because every animal should know that there's humans out there that actually care about their well being. Working with animals is a great career for me. Update; 8/2020 I’ve been volunteering and working with pets as a professional pet care provider for five years now. Through my journey I’ve learned pet CPR and gained dog training knowledge through Poochpals llc as well as worked as a dog handler at walterspetstyles. I’m currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer and furthering my knowledge on Pet care. At Poochpals we believe in being a friend for life so I’m definitely bringing our motto into the field and looking to become a furever friend for your pets. If you’re ever in need of an actual PROFESSIONAL pet care provider, look no further! I also have basic training knowledge so don’t be surprised if your pup or cat comes back knowing a few new tricks 😂 I have open availability Monday-Sunday. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! My dog, Odin, loves to make new friends of all species. Updates:4/7/2026 Hello friends! I would not be at 29 Hanford anymore due to instability, so I’m moving my business down to NYC before heading to PA. We have multiple fences in house and around the property. Pups are also supervised 24/7 and we have a designated dog room just for them. Back porch is also secured with gates. Dogs aren’t allowed on the lawn without human supervision and a 20ft leash. Lawn is fenced. We have strict safety procedures when it comes down to pets and children.

About: My first pet ever was a bunny named Einstein. I then had a parakeet, Guinea pigs, cats, more bunnies and of course a few dogs throughout the course of my life. I quite literally squeal every time I see a cute dog. My friend recommended this to me because she recognized my love for dogs. I am currently working full time and on my days off I’m hustling by doing DoorDash, or providing Content Day services to other creators in the neighborhood. On a day where I close at 1:30pm I can fit in a dog walk for a few hours in the morning. If I open I have time after work to pick up more work. I treat my pets as an extension of my heart. Providing love, attention and affection to dogs really warms my heart. Fulfilling their lovely doggo needs is a privilege.

“My two Jack Russell’s had a great time with Shannon while she did a 5 day house sit with them. Shannon regularly kept us up to date on their wellbeing with pictures and texts. She also was able to help us out for an extra day when our flight was delayed returning home and ensured the dogs were still taken care of while we were delayed getting home. The house looked great when we got back and we had two happy pups. Thanks again Shannon!”

About: I have an extensive history in pet care, training and love! Since childhood i have volunteered at many shelters and cared for pets of all sizes and species for my friends and family! I’m currently working part time as a fitness instructor in the hudson valley area. My job is flexible and gives me plenty of time to care for your furry fam! I am very respectful of the rules and habits of your animals and I will take notes to ensure your pets get the best care they can!

“Robbie was nothing short of heaven sent! When we had to make last minute changes for our dogs’s care Robbie took the time to come over, get acclimated with our two large dogs and learn their routine to keep them comfortable as it was their first time with care from a sitter. When our flight was canceled due to a snow storm, she continued to show up for them and even took them out to play in the snow and sent us pics to keep our minds at ease. She was caring, respectful to our home and really went above and beyond in so many ways. You can tell she’s a real animal lover and we are so grateful she cared for our pups!”

“Dante did a great job watching our two dogs for the weekend! He was easy to reach and the dogs were very happy and well taken care of. I would recommend.”
