“Mary was wonderful and extremely reliable. I really appreciated that she came and met with me and my dog before she started. She made my trip more enjoyable because I didn’t worry about my dog.”

About: I have two golden doodles who mean the world to me, but aside from my own pets i have made sure to surround myself with animals my whole life so far (I'm 27 currently) i grew up helping out friends and neighboors with animal care. to me pets are not just pets they are family. I love being outdoors going for walks myself so I take a great deal of pride being able to help someone with the joy in their life and incorporating it into what I already love to do. I currently work full time monday-Thursday with friday, saturday,and sunday off. I will be available any of those three days off for any service someone is requesting, and I am open to commuting aswell. I have two golden doodles who I treat them same as my closest and dearest friends/family. It would be no different with anyone else. One of my biggest beliefs is that respect and kindness speaks for itself and goes a long way so im very geared towards the needs, wants, requirements ect... that a client has or is requesting.

“Kailie was on time and absolutely wonderful with Basil. She love animals and it shows. Basil was very comfortable with Kailie. Definitely will be calling her back . I recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve had 3 dogs, 3 cats and now also a Guinea pig. I’ve cared for a variety of animals from fancy mice, ferrets, parrots, billy goats, and horses. I have narcolepsy so my sleep schedule is kinda like a cat so working with animals gives me a schedule set by your pet and then I can take my “catnaps” around them. I come you your pet so they feel safe and secure in their own home. I try my very best to not leave any trace that I’ve been there other than your happy and content pet. And sending you a picture of your pet while I’m there may make your day better knowing that your pet is happy

About: Growing up we bred St Bernard’s, and throughout childhood we had Chihuahuas, a Boxer & a Jack Russell Terrier, so I am very comfortable with any size dog! I currently own a 6 year old Corgi that I have had since he was a puppy and a 4 year old Pitbull that we rescued when she was a year old, so I am comfortable with any breed as well! I understand you don’t want your fur babies to sit home alone all day, especially if they are crated when you’re not home, so they can run around and stretch their legs. I’m a new mom and have 4 animals at my house. I love caring for them and love to care for yours too! I have 2 other jobs but I do love to squeeze in hanging out with your pets when I can to help out Whether you have a fenced in yard, a run, or need me to leash your fur baby for a nice long walk, I can tend to any of their needs! I remain calm and patient as new animals warm up to me and will make sure they are safe (crated or not), well fed and hydrated before I leave.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my genuine love and passion for taking care of animals. I have extensive experience in puppy care, which includes basic obedience and potty training. Additionally, I have specialized knowledge in providing senior care for pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. I believe in creating a safe and nurturing environment for all animals under my care. Let me know if you have any specific questions or if there's anything else I can help you with! Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine. I make sure to allocate dedicated time each day to feed, exercise, and provide attention to the pets I care for. I also prioritize regular check-ins and updates with the owners to keep them informed about their furry friends. It's all about creating a structured and loving routine that ensures the well-being and happiness of the pets in my care. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment. When caring for pets in the client's home, I aim to maintain a familiar and consistent environment for the pets. I follow their regular routines as closely as possible while making sure to keep their living areas clean and tidy. Ultimately, whether in my home or the client's home, my goal is to provide the best care possible, ensuring the pets feel loved, safe, and comfortable. Let me know if you have any more questions or if there's anything else I can assist you with!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I’ve been 16 years old. I watched for family, friends, and people in my town growing up. It was a great way to learn responsibility and the importance of caring for something. I have experience raising a litter of puppies recently. We worked on listening skills, potty training, and knowing boundaries in the yard. I am currently home with my baby caring for him, so I have a very available schedule. I am home all weekdays and weekends as well to offer care for your pets. My yard is fenced in, and there is a large area in the back of the property we live on where we go to play and run around that is not near the road at all. I’d have to leash dogs to walk them back there and then they’re safe to be off!

About: I have been taking care of animals for nearly a decade. I love the tiniest to the largest, indoor to outdoor. I will happily follow your routines and requests and care for your animals as if they were my own. I am the proud owners of four cats, two dogs, a lizard, and caged invertebrates. No animal too big or too small, I love them all. I build each day's routine around the jobs at hand, flexibility is my main attribute. I will go out of my way to follow your routine to keep your pet on schedule. I have one job that takes me away from the house that is a per diem, the full duration of which is only two and a half hours. I will do my best to make sure that if boarding your animal at my house I do not have that job coincide but if it does I have a safe spot to separate animals for that short period. I have a fenced in backyard and a large open concept house. I have the ability to separate your animal from my animals if that is requested. My personal animals are used to visitors, furry and human.

“Exactly what I was looking for in a dog walker! Communicative, flexible, easy to work with, my dog got all her needs met—thank you!”

About: Anastasia’s Acres is not a traditional kennel facility. We’re a homesteading family living on just under three acres, where we grow our own food, homeschool our children and share a deep love for dogs. Here, you might spot a curious toddler sprinting through the yard, a garden mouse hopping by, or a few scattered toys in the driveway- because this isn’t a business park. It’s our home. Our top priorities are our faith, our family, and creating a safe, loving environment for the dogs in our care. What began as a side job has grown into a full-time passion, and we feel truly blessed to do what we love every day. We aren’t a brick-and-mortar operation with strict office hours. We live here and are with the dogs full-time. That said, we do set pickup and drop off times to help maintain a healthy balance between work and family life- but we’re always happy to accommodate special circumstances when we can. At Anastasia’s Acres, your dog becomes part of our family/ pack. We’re honest, hard-working people who take pride in giving each dog the love, care and attention they deserve. Our on-site Dog Cottage is climate controlled (heated and air conditioned) and outfitted with veterinary-grade stainless steel cage banks that are private, easy to keep clean and extremely safe. Dogs rest and eat in their individual spaces but spend most of the day enjoying one of our several outdoor play yards. We group dogs based on temperament to ensure everyone has a safe and fun experience. We’re always building, improving and open to fresh ideas- with safety and comfort as our top priorities. We’d love to meet you and your dog! Reach out to schedule a meet-and-greet or call us anytime-someone is always here. We aren’t a brick-and-mortar operation with strict office hours.

“Mark was great at walking our dog Leo and keeping him company while we were out on Lake George. He was very communicative and sent pictures showing us that Leo was happy hanging with a new friend. We look forward to booking with him again.”

About: In my house, our pets are our family and they rule the house. My goal as a pet sitter is to provide animals with the best care and put owners at ease while they’re away. I have found a passion for caring for others’ animals which started many years ago when i began volunteering. From volunteering, I have experience with many different breeds and sizes of both dogs and cats and I also have experience administering medication, taking care of dogs with special needs, and LOTS of drool! By word of mouth, I have gained many clients in my area and continue to provide the best care I can for every family and their furry friends! I am currently a sophomore at Siena College. Therefore, while classes are in session, I stick to weekends only. In the summertime, I am available every day of the week and I typically work 4-6 hour days. I offer in-home care at the convenience of you and your pets. Boarding is expensive and pets are nowhere nears as spoiled as they would be with me! Keeping your pets in your home while you are gone will ease their anxiety (as well as yours) and provide the best level of comfort for them. I offer the in-home care as well as dog walking and occasional drop-ins!

About: I love all animals, I do have experience with medication administration, or reactive types of dogs. I am experienced in senior care or helping in training puppies while I care for your pets I currently work per-diem, and attend school full time. I have weekends free and evenings and always free to pop in most times especially overnights. My pup sleeps with me, he is spoiled like my own child. All my animals are well cared for and happy. I am comfortable stopping in for checkups or walks or even overnight stays

About: I have a very flexible schedule! Im a stay at home mom so always available and im easy to work with.I have taken care of dogs for 12 years. My family and friends have always counted on me to bathe, feed and walk their fur babies. When you book with me I always provide pictures for the clients and available 24 hrs if you ever need to call or video chat while your pups in my care. I'm honest and very dependable! I'm a stay at home mom of 3 boys. I'm available all week long for taken care of dogs for a few days or even if it's just for a few hours I have plenty of room for your fur babies to play and have 1 dog and 3 kids that will be here to keep your pups happy as well

About: Hi all! My name is Bryanna and I am 35 years old! I am a full time teacher just looking for a little extra to keep me busy! I decided to try pet sitting as I am a huge animal lover. I have owned English Mastiffs my entire life and really believe every animal has the capability to love and be loved! At home I live with three spoiled rotten pups. Cooper and Chloe are six. Coopy is a Husky Shepherd mix and Chlo Chlo is a Beagle Coonhound mix. We also have Diesel who is a 2 year old 210 pound English Mastiff. If I could quit my job to be with them all day, I would! Spending time with animals makes me happy and I know what it is life to leave your pet while you enjoy your life, so I wanted to help make that experience seamless and easy for you! I am excited to help you out and spend time with your sweet pets! I am off for the summer as I am teacher, so I am able to do drop in visits and walks weekly! It’s hard for pets to be home alone all day and I’d like to alleviate some of that from their owners! I take the upmost care of my pups. We walk everyday and they spend a lot of time outside playing and basking in the sun. During the summer we love our naps and extra treats.

“Jess was amazing! She sent pictures and updated me with lots of information and communicated effectively! I trust her with our Dog wholeheartedly 😀”

“Tim was great to work with. We were visiting Maine for vacation and needed our dog walked 2 of the days. Tim was accommodating and worked with our schedule. He sent pics of our pup during his visit which I appeared. I would totally recommend him!!”

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and a dog since I was ten. I’ve also been volunteering at animal shelters since the beginning of 2024! I have a calm energy which is great for putting anxious pets at ease. I have the most experience with small dogs but love dogs of all sizes! I work part time at Hannaford but my schedule allows me the flexibility to provide your pets with the care they deserve! I have my own car so transportation is not an issue. Pet safety whether out and about or in your home is my top priority! I am careful to observe animal body language so I can better know when to give a pet space or remove them from a distressing situation. If you have any care or safety concerns that are specific to your home or pet, do not hesitate to let me know!
