About: I have had pets since I was 4 years old! I love having pets in my home and making them a part of my family. My dog loves every dog she has ever met and loves to have a playmate! If you bring your pet to my house they will be treated like one of my family members! I work full time Monday-Friday 7:30-4, but my husband works from home and I am home all day during the weekends. My husband also loves dogs and has plenty of free time during his work day to take walks and give lots of love! I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room for running. We are on a cul de sac so there is very little traffic in my part of the neighborhood. My home also has several baby gates to make sure that your pet is safe if I have to leave them in the house for a short amount of time.

“Rain or shine, Abigail’s been there for us! She’s been so great with Howie and braved a very wet day to take him out for his walk. Thanks for all your help Abigail!”

“Emily is our springer spaniels favorite person on earth I think! And our cat is excited when she stops in to pick the dog up - and she is never excited….”

About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds—big, small, and everything in between. From growing up surrounded by dogs and cats to earning a degree in Equine Reproduction and working as a veterinary assistant, animal care has always been at the heart of who I am. Over the past 20 years, I’ve raised four amazing Pitbulls, a spunky Jack Russell, and four cats. Our animals truly are our kids. I’ve cared for puppies, kittens, seniors, and special needs pets, and I’m highly experienced with giving medications, recognizing health issues, and providing basic first aid. Whether I’m staying in your home or dropping in for visits, your pets will be treated like family—because that’s how I see them. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust, and I’m here to make sure your pets are safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I do my best to stay flexible for you and your pets. I’m available for most bookings, including weekends, holidays, and even last-minute requests. Whether you need a quick drop-in, an extended stay, or an emergency sitter, I’m here to help. My goal is to make your life easier while giving your pets the consistent, loving care they deserve. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my top priority is keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm. I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and potty breaks to favorite toys and cuddle habits—because I know how important the little details are. I aim to keep things stress-free by maintaining your pet’s normal routine, minimizing disruption, and giving them the same love and attention you would. I always treat my clients’ homes with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure you’re updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and safe.

“Arielle is incredible! Timely, fun, responsive, and caring. Made me feel so confident and comfortable leaving my pup w/ her!”

About: I've cared for and had dogs my entire life. I help family and friends with their dogs. I currently walk my own dog 3 times/day. I work from home part-time, and I am looking to walk a few dogs per day during the week, at flexible times, just not after 3 pm. I will not have pets in my home, or be doing any pet sitting. I will pick them up, walk them, and drop them back home.

“Nicole is an awesome dog walker and caregiver, one of the best we've ever had. She took great care of our two French bulldogs and her communication and attention to detail is superb. Really glad we found her. She is highly recommended.”

About: My name is Stuart, I am relocating to the area as I am starting a position at Albany Medical Center (AMC) in October. As I wait to begin my next chapter, nothing would make me more happy than to spend time with animals! I have always had a knack for the outdoors and have always had a soft spot for animals. I am an avid runner and am almost always be found running or hiking. I can guaranteed your dog will get the exercise and care he/she needs under my supervision. I have experience volunteering at the Lake Placid Vet as-well as volunteer experience at the Saranac Lake Animal Shelter. I have house sat /walked several dogs such as Australian shepherds, Labs, Bernie’s and Doodles in the past. If you have any additional questions please feel free to reach out to me! Until I start my position at Albany Medical Center (10/15/2026), I have no obligations besides providing optimal care for the dogs under my supervision. Specifically, I am free on both weekdays and weekends and I’m flexible to work around schedules. I have a three-story townhouse apartment. There is fenced in dog parks within the complex for easy bathroom visits as well as prolonged paved trails right next to my apartment that go into the woods for longer walks in the evening around lunchtime and in the morning. Dog Gates secure the dog within our second floor, preventing entry to third floor bedrooms and first floor mudroom. Dogs will have eyes on them at all times when not with owner.

I have two dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just hanging out with them while you’re away.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including my own dog and the pets of friends and neighbors. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to make them feel loved. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and providing companionship. As an EMT, I am calm under pressure, attentive to detail, and committed to the safety and well-being of every animal. I currently work part-time as an EMT, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet needs regular walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or last-minute assistance, I will do my best to provide dependable and consistent care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my daily routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs they may have. In your home, I will follow all care instructions carefully and keep your pet’s environment clean, secure, and stress-free.

About: Hello, my name is Alie and my #1 passion is animals! In search of my calling in life, I have found myself working for a pet grooming salon in my hometown, Milton, NY! I spend my days Tuesday-Saturday bathing and grooming neighborhood dogs then go home to love on my own German Shepard/Belgian Malinois mix and Tabby cat! My weekends are filled with time spent with my family (pets are family!) and my pet sitting clients. I have spent my whole life around dogs and cats, helping to fulfill all of their needs, and have been formally pet-sitting for the public since 2021. Since I was about 12 years old, I have gained experience caring for dogs for friends and family, providing basic care such as feeding and potty breaks. As I grew, my experience expanded to include transportation to and from the vet and groomer, feeding, oral medication administration, ear drops/ointment, eye drops, walking, and (the best part of course) playing! My experience also includes my feline friends, most often multi-cat homes, for regular feeding, oral medication administration, ear ointment, litter box cleaning, and, you guessed it, playing! I currently work at a grooming salon in Milton Tuesday-Saturday, so on those days I am available to love on your pets in the morning before I go to work and in the evening! On Sundays and Mondays, I can come for a visit during the mid-day hours. All of my clients are the highlight of my work-day, I look forward to every visit so you can trust me to be there when you need me! Your pets safety and comfort are of the utmost importance to me, I take any time necessary to ensure your pet's comfortable with me being inside their home, even if I exceed the typical 30m or 60m visit length! Working at a grooming salon, I have honed my skills with dog body language so I know when your pups are upset. My experience with cats has also taught me when the kitties aren't happy as well! Meet & Greets are a necessary part of the booking process to ensure everyone's safety over the course of a booking. All bookings that include a dog are required to have a one-time complimentary Meet & Greet prior to booking. Dogs are careful about the humans they trust, espcially with their parents gone, so I'd like to make friends with you present! Other bookings that only include cats are not required to have a Meet & Greet prior to booking but you are more than welcome to request one! Any additional Meet & Greets that are requested beyond the initial complimentary Meet & Greet will be booked at the drop-in rate listed on my profile. At the first visit, slow and quiet are the name of the game, I take my time going about their routine so they can get used to me! After my tasks are done, it's my goal to make them as comfy as possible by offering them their favorite toys and treats at their own pace. By the end of the booking, my aim is to be your pets new best friend and your go-to sitter!

In addition to my own dogs and cats, I've cared for many pets in the community while mom and/or dad are on the road. Available almost every day for dog walks and drop-ins. I set my own schedule so your pet always gets the care, when and where, we decide. Currently not offering pet-sitting in my home except by prior approval.

About: Combining a love for animals with over 4 years of experience in veterinary medicine, I am dedicated to the health, comfort, and happiness of all pets in my care.

My goal is to build a lasting connection with each animal I meet, creating a trustworthy bond for both pets and their people. Every walk and session is an opportunity to enrich your pet’s life and offer you peace of mind. My schedule is currently open to enrich my own dogs and many others! I will apply my training skills daily to all dogs in my care, specializing in social skills and the basic manners I have years of leash experience with XXL breeds, hunting breeds, and teacup sizes as well. I've mentored under behavioral specialist and award winning veterinarians, learning safe handling techniques,

About: I’ve had animals since I was a young girl. As a child we had cats. As a young adult I worked for a grooming, daycare, and boarding facility for 16 years. The only reason I stopped working was because of the birth of might twins.I also volunteered for a pet rescue, a pet shelter, and of course owned my own dogs, cats, and hamster. I’m a mom of 7! Some grown , some in college, and my youngest 2 are 9 year old twins. I have plenty of time during the days to walk, spend time, cuddle, and love on your furry family members. My specialty is mid day breaks/walks or check ins while you’re away or have a long day at work. I am aware of the tremendous responsibility it is caring for your pet. I have my own pups and kitties and will give the same love, care, and respect my babies receive.

About: Aside from my 3 personal pets, I have raised 4 Seeing Eye dogs and pet sat for over a dozen families. I have experience in dog first aid, potty training, and reactive dogs. Socialization is important and I have the knowledge on how to do so safely for each individual dog. All breeds of dogs are welcome. I work from home and am available 24/7. I love being able to take the dogs on either long walks or a quick potty break. I have a fenced in yard and a crate available for any size dog. I am aware of dog safe foods and carry Benadryl and hydrogen peroxide for emergencies.

“Elaina is great with my adult beagle. Very prompt and responsive to any of my messages. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: I truly love being around furry friends! I grew up with both a dog and a cat, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. Now, I have a 2.5 year old Labradoodle of my own, so I understand firsthand the energy, excitement, and occasional chaos that can come with younger dogs. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to older companions, and I’m happy to help with everything from basic training to administering medication when needed. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll treat your furry friend like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of care, attention, and affection! I currently work full-time during the week, so my availability is mainly on weekends. That said, I’m very flexible with timing and happy to work around your schedule as best I can! I always try to stick as closely as possible to their normal routine that way they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, along with feeding, walks, and any other care instructions you provide.
