House Sitting in Sackets Harbor

“Julia was FANTASTIC! I would use her again in a heartbeat.”

About: I’ve grown up with lots of dogs my whole life. We have trained puppies but have also rescued adult dogs as well. I’ve helped train my family dogs and my own pup, so I’m patient and know how to make dogs feel safe and loved. I treat every dog like they’re part of my family! I am currently working part time and in graduate school which includes an internship. I have typically have open availability Monday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday. I’m also available Wednesday in the evening. My dog is a super chill 5 year old who loves to tag along on walks. I am a respectful and trustworthy person that you can count on!

“Our fur kids always love Eliza’s visits. She takes the BEST care of them and our home while we are away and takes special care of our medical special needs Frenchie as though he were her own. Truly cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s a true professional!”

About: My family has owned several dogs since I was a child and I have helped take care of them since I was about 12 years old. I also gained a good amount of experience working at the local SPCA for 2 summers, where I learned about proper dog walking, bathing, nutrition, and cleaning methods for both dogs and cats. I am also a certified Dog Trainer through Animal Behavior College and worked in a Veterinary Practices program as a Teaching Assistant for 1 year. I have been dog and cat sitting for family and friends for over 4 years and love animals of all kinds. I can care for rabbits, ferrets and guinea pigs as well! I look forward to meeting your pets and giving my clients peace of mind while they are away! :) I petsit full-time throughout the year. Overnight care in your home requires at least two weeks' notice and is subject to a cancellation fee if you cancel less than a week before the service. Please contact me for more detailed availability, as my schedule is subject to change. I meet with the owner(s) and pets prior to house sitting to ensure their animals and I are familiar with one another and I am informed of each pet's individual needs. I try to ensure dogs get a walk every day, unless they have alternative exercise needs. I try to make sure all animals have both breakfast and dinner, every day, and prioritize this. Potty breaks should be given every 4-6 hours at the most, again depending on the age, size and special needs of the dog. It is not possible for me to board dogs at this time. I've also found that dogs are more comfortable in their own homes. I can gladly send you pictures of the dogs and cats (if the cats aren't hiding) so you know they're doing okay (many clients have asked me to do this). Please discuss your pets' needs with me and leave care instructions in some format, either on notes that I take after meeting with you or in writing while you are away, preferably in advance.

“I am extremely happy with the care Jordan provided to my two dogs. One of my dogs can be reactive around strangers but she took to Jordan right away. The other is a strong 75lb lab and Jordan had no problem controlling him on lead for a walk. She sent updates and pictures every day of my trip and went above and beyond to treat my kiddos like they were her own. She even checked in with me after the booked timeframe to make sure I had returned safely and that the dogs were ok. I will definitely use Jordan’s service in the future and highly recommend her to all.”

“Katlynn was so great with our dogs. We added a puppy to our family last minute and she embraced it head on! Our dogs loved her and even watched her leave. I would trust her with my dogs any day of the week! She should be your go-to-gal for this area!”

“Lindsey did an outstanding job taking care of our pets while we were away. She showed patience, understanding, and sensitivity to 3 cats that weren't used to their owners being away. Within a couple of day's they warmed up to her nicely, which greatly reduced their stress, as well as the stress from their owners. We really appreciate Lindsey's attention to detail, and she will always be our first choice if she is available when it is time for us to be away again.”

“Thank you Averi for watching my gang!”

“Dino was wonderful with our dogs and communication with us. Having never had anyone stay overnight with our dogs, Dino helped put our mind at ease, updating us multiple times through the day with pictures and videos Our dogs had a blast and were very well taken care of. Dino was very polite, punctual and our dogs have a new friend. We will definitely look for Dino for any future visits!”

“Jess was amazing! She sent us pictures of Griffy while we were away as well as text updates. She arrived early in the morning so that we could get on the road to travel to our daughter’s wedding. We cannot wait to book her again.”

About: I recently helped my dog Bean have puppies! We raised 5 puppies in my house, I stayed up with them all night. Fed them, raised them, sucked snot out of their noses. I also helped bean recover from her C-section and cleaned her stitches. I’m very accustomed to administering dogs medications because my 13 year old lab has cancer :( and my 20 year old cat is 20 YEARS OLD! I am currently looking for a full time job, but with no luck of getting hired. I’m open to helping your pets any day any time! I have four dogs and one cat. I always take my dogs outside and play fetch with them. They love to swim! We go to the beach in the off-season. We let them in the couch and give them kisses. They eat two times a day and get adequate exercise. For my geriatric cat, she stays in the same spot all day. I constantly change her food and water and giver her love when she asks for it.

“Our sitter was fantastic, paid attention to all the details kept us informed on how the pups were getting along, she was a joy for our family. Highly recommend her services and we would use her again!”

About: My name is Alli and I am a Special Education teacher looking for a fun way to continue working during the summer. I am very caring, nurturing, responsible and reliable. I love all types of animals and have had experience around various breeds of dogs and cats. Growing up, I’ve had labs, pugs, Boston terriers, Weimaraners, and labradoodles that I was responsible for caring for as family pets; as well as various breeds of cats that lived both inside my home and lived outside as barn cats. After reading my profile, I hope that you feel that I am the best fit for your dog or cat sitting, and dog or cat walking needs. I can’t wait to meet your family pet and give them love and attention! During the school year, I am available for drop in visits and dog walking after 3:15pm. Once school is in summer vacation, my availability opens up to almost anytime between 8-4. I treat pets as if they were my own. Growing up we always treated our dogs as if they were another family member and not just a pet. I use that same mindset when caring for any animal.

About: I have a 13 year old shitzu yorkie who has been with me since I was 9 and I trained him myself. I have a roomy place with lots of places for individual areas. I currently am taking a break from work and have plenty of time to care for your furry friend as needed! Full time availability and plants of room in my schedule for any hour care. I have a dog who can keep your furry friend company but have enough room to separate them if your dog or cat likes their own space!

“Tiassa was great, a real dog person! My dogs loved her & she devoted a lot of time to being with them. She also handled getting locked out of the house (my fault) like a champ.”

About: From young age I've been responsible for many types of animals. I have experience with dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, cows and calfs, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, iguana, fish, frogs, turtles, salamanders, etc. I currently have one medium dog who lost his litter mate in December 2023. I'm a stay at home dog Mom. We both have lots of energy for walks and hikes. I live on a 1 mile dirt, seasonal, dead end road with lake frontage and massive yard for playing hide and seek in the trees and hunting squirrels. My dog is dog friendly, loves playmates. (No jealousy). In your home care would be provided to your pets as we would discuss with a meet & greet.

“An absolutely exceptional dog sitter! Our pup had an incredible time and received exceptional care. The frequent photo updates were delightful and highlighted the devoted attention and affection given to our furry friend. Organizing playtime for our pup with a furry companion was an absolute delight. Since our little girl adores playtime with other pups and is the only one at home, this was a special treat, especially with the weather getting colder. It truly brightened her day to have this social time. Our furry one returned home overwhelmingly happy and pleasantly exhausted from all the excitement. This experience was truly outstanding and highly recommended for anyone seeking top-tier care for their beloved pet! Additionally, the sitter accommodated our last-minute request and went above and beyond in ensuring our puppy's comfort, resulting in her increased happiness. We're undoubtedly returning clients; my little Autumn is thrilled, and that alone brings me immense joy. This woman is an absolute gem—professional, kind-hearted, and highly recommended! A solid 10/10!”

About: I’m experienced with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens and ducks, horses and many other fur and feathered friends. Whether you need me to pop in for walks or stay at your place, I’m ready for walks, play, reenforcing training, and giving medications to your beloved pets. I work remote, so I can be available for visits with a flexible schedule or work from your place to ensure your animals get the attention they need. I can visit or stay depending on your pet care needs. If I am staying in your home to care for the pets, I will need wifi/internet access.

About: I have a full range of animal history and care. I have chosen dogs to accommodate and love unconditionally when you must be away from your best friend! I offer a variety of animal care and services, including one on one to fun play sessions for pets with like personalities. I am confident we can find what is necessary and essential for each unique situation. We don’t have problems we specialize in solutions together! I am currently retired and found a way to incorporate exercise and love for animals in a great combination for both myself and our furry faces. I travel regularly to render my time and care for others pets in many locations. I have many opportunities and accommodations to suit each unique dog situation. I am willing to follow pet owners regiment to almost an exact replica if possible. Let’s talk a see how I can help make the transition stress free when you must be apart.

About: I’ve grown up with animals in my life since I was born and my mom worked at a Vet Clinic for 13 years so I’ve seen my fair share of all sorts of breeds! From little Pugs to giant Cane Corsos! I’m up for anything and happy to help in anyway I can! I am usually free throughout the week especially with a heads up I should have no problems being able to help you out with whatever needs to be done! And I’ll be happy doing it! I have a dog named Motley who is 4 years old! She’s a mutt but we love her so much and she gets along well with other animals. Sometimes she’s a bit excited with new people/ animals but she is crate trained and potty trained so shouldn’t be a problem!
