“Vicki is so sweet to our cats! We've hired her twice now and she's a pro at administering the inhaler to our one cat with asthma. She also has gone above and beyond to feed some of the feral cats that hang out near our house. I would highly recommend her for cat sitting!!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful! My 11 year old cat was snuggling with her when she visited. Emily took great care of my baby and sent me photos and videos of her when I was traveling. I highly recommend Emily and will definitely reach out to her next time we go away!”
“Shana was extremely attentive and loving to my kitties! Even my shy boy came to trust her over a few days. She sent me updates each day including pictures which brought me a peace of mind as I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Rebecca was great with my cat Jamie! He really opened up to her over the 2 weeks she cared for him, and she kept the apartment cleaned up nicely. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Alexandra was great to our two fur babies. She came to meet them in advance and they already seemed to like her. She was able to give one of our cats his medications each time she came, she played with them, and she gave them lots of love. She was also very prompt in her communication and provided lots of pictures each time.”
“Kimberly is a great pet sitter for our cat Homer. Homer has taken to her quickly, and she is reliable and responive. I will certainly be reaching out to Kimberly again whenever it is needed.”
“Shana was a delight to work with, and our three kitties loved her (she even got our shyest girl to ask for belly rubs)! Shana was extremely communicative and thoughtful, we would be happy to recommend her.”
“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!”
“Aliza is a warm and friendly sitter who was able to look after our two kitties on relatively short notice. She had some great ideas for how to handle feeding time based on their personalities and food-related behavior. She was also easy to work with. Will hire again!”
“Alexander is incredibly reliable, kind and helpful in taking care of Skipper. He goes above and beyond in making sure that our older dog is consistently given walks, meals and even an insulin shot”

“Sharon did a great job. Our cats can be a little fussy and have a few different feeding needs, but she handled it no problem! Pictures every day, and happy cats when we got home.”
“Paige was such a joy to work with. I felt so comfortable and at ease while I was on vacation knowing that my kitties were in the best hands with Paige! She provided reliable check-in visits and sent me recaps and photos each time, which always included a note about how much she loves my kitties 🥰 I recommend Paige to anyone who wants to feel completely at ease that their furry loved one(s) will be in the best care while being pet-sat.

About: I have had animals in my life my entire life. Dogs, horses and cats mainly. I also have experience taking care of older animals. I have fostered animals as well. I work full time locally in the Hudson Valley. I have breaks where I can provide extra care and attention depending on different schedules and needs. The yard is partially fenced. There are ample options of dog beds throughout the house. I also can crate your pet if needed and appropriate.
About: Hi I’m Angie :). I have loved and cared for pets since I was 8 years old. From cats to dogs to turtles and birds I truly love all creatures big and small. I have experience with caring for older dogs and cats as well as young pups and kittens. I am an avid walker and love active animals with high energy. Currently my schedule has maximum availability for all seven days of the week :). I will however be starting a part time position soon which would leave most of my availability to weekdays and some weekends I currently do not offer pet care in my personal home as my house mate has severe allergies. I do however pet sit on location.
“David gave our two kitties excellent care. He fed them, played with them, cleaned up after them and took the most beautiful photos! During each visit he took photos and we really enjoyed seeing that the kitties were happy and cared for. I would definitely rebook David in the future!”
