Christine was flexible with booking, sent pictures, & I felt confident after our meet & greet that she would be a good fit. Can’t wait to use her for the next few months I’m in the area 😊

Laura is wonderful! Great communication and my girl trusted her very early on! Athena is a Tim at rescue and often times won’t leave the house with sitters for the first couple visits, but Athena left with her all three of her first visits and even went for a walk with her a couple times which she rarely does. My expectations are getting her potty break met and to get her exercise needs met as well as a huge bonus! Will definitely hire again!

About: I been surrounded by dogs all my life and feel a special connection to each one I meet. I have experience with dogs of all ages (puppies through senior) and enjoy helping them be happy and healthy. Getting to know your pets and their personalities is my favorite part of caring for them. Whether it's walking, playing, or just hanging out, I cannot wait to meet your furry friend. I am a full-time teacher, so I have the flexibility to work in the summer. This means that, for the most part, my schedule is open and I can work around your pet's routines. I am happy to discuss your particular needs. As someone who values their personal space, I understand it can be difficult to let a stranger into your home, especially when they will be interacting with your beloved pet. I will treat your home, and pets, with the utmost respect at all times. We can work out a system that you are comfortable with that allows me to give your pets the best possible care, while maintaining your comfort.

About: Since I was in Middle School, friends, family, and locals ask me take out, feed, play, and stay with their fur babies! I have watched dogs for 2 weeks at a time, a weekend, a night, and even just a drop in. I have experience with puppies, adult, and senior dogs, and will go out of my way to make sure they feel loved while their pawrents are away! I’m currently working full-time, so I have plenty of time after work to play and take care of your pets! Even with a full-time job, your fur baby will be unconditionally loved, as I love my own. I grew up walking and taking care of my own dogs, as well as friend’s and local’s dogs. I’ve never been without a dog. I’m committed to doing everything I can to keep your fur babies happy, as they will be doing the same for me!

About: I’ve been the go-to sitter for my sister’s and in-laws’ pups over the years. I’ve cared for my sister’s diabetic dog, following medication and feeding routines closely, and looked after my in-laws’ dogs while they were away on vacation—making sure they were walked, loved, and well cared for. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like family. Whether your pup needs playtime, belly rubs, or a little extra medical attention, I’m here to help! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to be available whenever needed, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I truly enjoy spending time with animals—whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to providing consistent, loving care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Although I’m based in Granville, I also spend time in the Queensbury area and am happy to offer services in both locations and surrounding towns. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medications, or playtime—and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I give them plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and send updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. My goal is to treat your home with respect and your pet like family

Julia was amazing with our very timid little rescue. Julia went out of her way to come ahead of time to meet her, and I felt so much better once I met Julia, and saw how incredibly thoughtful her approach was.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have frequently helped neighbors and friends with theirs. I now have a yellow lab and a black and white cat that are both 2 years old. I love animals and work from home so I am available when needed to help check in on or walk any animals you may have! I work from home and can be flexible with what you need. I find it easiest to help out owners at lunch to give their dogs a halfway break. I have owned and been around all different kind of dogs and understand that each can have their own quirks and need to trust me.

About: Now offering adventure daycare (pick up and drop off service and hiking during the day) and boarding in my home which includes adventure daycare.... Over 16 years training, walking and exercising high energy dogs. I have extensive experience with working dogs, special needs dogs and have certifications in dog obedience and other disciplines. I am licensed as a public school teacher and fully background checked. Contact me for the best care. Boarding and adventure daycare is my speciality. I have limited drop in availability. Dog walking and exercising is my full-time job. I want to provide a concierge service that makes it easiest for you to take your time back and be well. Your wellness is key to your dog being well. My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem. I give love, attention and exercise to your family member as if they were my own. I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided.

Colleen D is fantastic!!!! She cares for every need (and wants!!! LOL) my pooches Bella and Sophie have. She is reliable, caring, attentive and loves my dogs as if they were princesses and her own. She is always there for me even in short notice. I am extremely greatful for her attentive care, passion for animals and over all kind spirit. It comes without any reservation that I would wholeheartedly recommend Colleen for any type of care.
