House Sitting Rosendale

About: I have always been an animal lover. As a kid, I had a guinea pig and a dog, and I spent a lot of my time at a farm, riding and caring for horses. Aside from taking care of my family dog, I have looked after the pets of friends and acquaintances. I have experience with both dogs and cats. I have volunteered in animal shelters and sanctuaries, and previously worked with a dog groomer, bathing and drying dogs. I work a part-time 11am-5pm job, mostly on weekends, along with some special events. I have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule, so I can arrange it to fit with other responsibilities, such as pet sitting needs! I have a fenced yard, perfect for playing! I currently do not have any pets. I love to provide pets with the entertainment exercise they need, and I'm always happy to give cuddles if your pet likes physical affection, or space if they prefer to keep some distance.

“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.”

About: Hi there! I’ve had a deep, natural connection with animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life, and today, my household also includes horses! Beyond a lifetime of hands-on pet ownership, I also have professional experience as an obedience trainer. That background allows me to handle dogs of all temperaments with confidence, patience, and clear communication. Whether your dog needs structured walks, positive reinforcement, or just a calm, supportive companion while you’re away, they will be in safe, expert hands. Caring for pets isn't just a job for me—it's a lifelong passion. I look forward to giving your pets the love, attention, and structured care they deserve! Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog with special needs, or some place in between I’m here for them! 🐾 I treat every pet like my own, providing loving, patient, and reliable care tailored to their unique needs. ❤️ I’m currently available on weekends and weekday early mornings and evenings, with flexibility to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s needs whenever possible. Just let me know what is needed and I’ll work with you as best as possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In your home, I follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal feeding and care schedule, and provide plenty of attention and affection. I respect your home, keep your pet’s environment safe and clean, and send regular updates for your peace of mind. You can trust me to care for your pets as if they were my own!

“Paula was fantastic from the beginning. Her communication is great. She’s kind and responsive and made me feel very confident that my pets would be well cared for. I have a diabetic cat who needs medicine, and Paula’s experience caring for pets with other medical conditions was reassuring. She sent lots of photos and I could tell they were well loved while I was away.”

“Lexi watched my three pets, including an older special needs cat. Her communication was wonderful - great question, photos and updates, and just a cheerful confidence that helped me feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. They and the house were in great shape when I returned and I could tell the cats and dog were well cared for. Thank you so much!”

About: I excel at making dogs feel calm and like their owners never even left the house. Learning their schedules, quirks, and favorite walking spots helps me make them feel comfortable for extended stays. Energetic puppy? I’ll run around w them and tire them out. Senior dog? We can relax and go at their pace. What sets me apart is my intuition and caring heart. I have a flexible, remote job so I am able to stay with your pet as long as needed through the day and take them on frequent walks in the neighborhood good or to the dog park! I do live-in dogsitting/housesitting at the client’s house. I like to learn about your dog (how they like to play, chill, etc..) so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible.

“Chana did an excellent job taking care of my three dogs! She stayed in contact to let us know how things were going and provided us the reassurance that our dogs were in good hands! Thanks Chana! As this experience made our vacation that much better….”

About: If you have an athletic or active dog, we are the hosts for you!!! Trips to parks (on and off leash), running the trails, and swimming in a Lake will happen every day. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. I have a very open schedule. Usually I go to the park go with my family who enjoy the day doing things outside the house. If you have a last minute appointment or you need anything on the same day I do take them I have a very open schedule one works in the morning and the other one works in the afternoon so your pet will never be alone. I had pets before they pass away. We used to love our pets so much. We took CPR classes and emergency classes for pets just in case.

“Kaylene is everything that is advertised. Detail oriented, considerate of housesitting details if that’s what you require, caring of pets super on top of things and just amazingly nice to work with!”

“Steve, is a lovely person who was the absolute best with our boy Willow. Very attentive to a very playful pup. We are grateful to Steve for the peace of mind he gave us with his regular updates and photos of Willow, he deserves more than 5 stars ⭐️. I highly recommend him. Thanks again Steve.”

Jannese & Gisele R.

“Jennifer was the best! We had a last-minute cancellation and she was a lifesaver for us: she even came by the same day to meet our pup in advance. She took really great care of our girl and was very communicative. Definitely recommend!”

Kelley L.

“Emily is AMAZING and did a fabulous job house + pup sitting while we were out of town. Her warm and caring manner instantly won our pups over and they had a wonderful weekend together. Emily’s proactive communications both before and during her stay here were very reassuring and appreciated. Can’t say enough great things and hope to use Emily many times in the future!!”

Paula P.

About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my life since I was 8 years old, and now I'm 20! My dog is 13 years old, and caring for her has taught me so much about patience and responsibility. She takes multiple medications, so I'm very comfortable with medication schedules and making sure pets receive the care they need on time. I've also looked after other pets for family and friends like my friend's 3 cats, Rocky, Pepper and Sage, during school breaks, and the cutest dog in the world, Abby. These experiences helped me become confident caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs!! I truly love spending time with animals, cuddling, playing, keeping them company, or just making sure they stay active and happy. I'm an outdoorsy person who enjoys hiking and walking, so I'd be happy to take your dog on walks and adventures if needed. I'm reliable, attentive, and comfortable with feeding and following special instructions to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for! I’m planning to have an internship, so I’ll be working full days but will be able to periodically check in on your animals!! I love to play and spend time with them, and you can trust they’re in great hands! My puppy is 13 years old, and is on many medications, has specific feeding times and diet, but she still loves to play and go on walks! I’m super organized and take very good care of her.

“Janice is amazing! She took such great care of our 2 Great Danes, our cat, and our home during our house sitting booking. She treated them with so much care and attention we were completely at ease during our trip. Thank you so much!!”
