“So happy we were able to have Alex come back to walk Penny! Just a wonderful person with our pup -- punctual and gave great updates. No notes!”

“Elizabeth has been amazing with our pups!! She made sure to ask a lot of questions the first time we met and even took notes about any specific commands they know or that we practice with them (like 'drop it' and waiting on the stair landing before being leashed). She also keeps a good pace up on the walks so our pups get some good exercise in. They always come back super happy, and tired/ready for a nap:)) I highly recommend Elizabeth to help with your fur babies!!!!!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I rescued my first dog from the local humane society when I was 11, and that experience started a lifelong passion for caring for animals. Before becoming a nurse, I worked as a veterinary assistant for two local animal hospitals where I gained valuable hands-on experience with animal care and handling. I developed skills in basic training, puppy socialization, reading animal body language, medication administration, subcutaneous fluids, nail trimming, grooming, and bathing. I also volunteered for several years with a local dog rescue as a foster, helping provide temporary homes, structure, and love for dogs before their adoptions. Many needed socialization, basic training, and a calm environment to help them thrive. I later served as the rescue’s foster and event coordinator until 2020. Today I share my home with three of my own beloved dogs. One of our previous dogs had epilepsy and required frequent monitoring and medication, which gave me additional experience caring for pets with medical needs. In my free time I enjoy traveling, camping, hiking with my dogs, training with our Belgian Malinois, and watching my daughter ride her horse. Caring for animals has always been a true passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a nurse who works three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several days off to dedicate to caring for animals. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is fairly flexible on my days off, and I’m happy to work with you to meet your pet’s individual needs and routine. Please check my calendar for availability and feel free to reach out with any specific requests. I will always do my best to accommodate and treat your animals with the same care and attention I would give my own. At this time, I’m unable to host dogs in my home, but I’m happy to care for them in the place they feel most comfortable—your home. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and extended daytime care depending on your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care in a calm and compassionate environment, treating your pets with the same attention and kindness I would give my own.

“Susan is very nice, responds promptly and my dogs love her.”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. A horse when I was 10 dogs, cats and still have dogs, cats and a horse in my life as of now have no problems with ministering medication to any animal. I am retired. Looking for a hobby that I love. I am available all times of the day seven days a week. It may be so. I have five small dogs of my own with a backyard fenced in and a doggie door for them to go in and out as they please.

“I am pleased to highly recommend our dog walker. Stephanie, was consistently professional, punctual, and attentive. Throughout each visit, she provided regular updates, which gave us great peace of mind. Her interaction with our dog was exceptional, and it was clear that she genuinely cared for her well-being. Our dog responded very positively to her, and we were extremely satisfied with the level of care she received. I am confident that anyone who chooses Stephanie, services will be equally pleased. This was our first time ever being away from our baby Blu and she assured us that Blu would be good hands with her. We will definitely book with her again.”

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.

About: I have had and taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I am a part time groomer as well so I enjoy maintaining a certain level of care for any dogs that I am around. I'm currently working part time so I have an open availability to squeeze in time with your fur babies whenever you may need the hand I have an environment that is safe and dog friendly. I do not have any of my own pets at the moment so there's plenty of room for yours

“Nathan walked our dog twice yesterday and also fed her. Communication was easy and all instructions were followed, leaving us with peace of mind and a happy dog. I’m wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services to others.”

About: I had two felines for over 15 years but they recently passed away. They were my best friends, but they hated dogs, which brought me to Rover. I love dogs big and small, from german shepherds to a Maltese, I have never had the living situation to have one. I understand the importance of a routine in a dog's life and want to make them as comfortable as possible, especially when their human is not around. I love taking them out to play in the park or snuggling on the couch. Depending on the dog's needs I will take them for a short or long walk. We will make a plan catered to your specific pet. I have experience with giving medicine. I have experience with walking, overnight care, and in-home pups. I've always wanted a dog, let me give yours all the love I have to share. I have a flexible schedule and keep my rover calendar updated! I am an early riser and like to get moving so if you need morning help I am happy to do so. I try not to be out super late so unless I am doing an overnight the latest I'd do a visit it 9pm-10pm. Unfortunately, I can no longer offer home care in my house. For pet parents, I will arrive within the designated time, greet the pet with a warm hello, check the water to make sure it is clean and full, check the food to confirm the amount eaten, take the puppy outside to relieve itself, and/or change the puppy pad if required. Give the dog some good scratches and pats and maybe a treat if available. If the dog wants to play tug-o-war or fetch I'll do some of that too. I would like to tailor the visit to the dog's routine, so as not to cause any undue stress.

“Colleen came to feed Oscar dinner and take him for a walk on three occasions over the July 4th weekend. She was extremely accommodating, and Oscar was a happy little boy with a satisfied tummy when I returned home. I will definitely request Colleen's services in the future.”

“Kristen was lovely! On time and very sweet and patient with my anxious pup. She had nice energy, and comes across as very responsible and caring. I felt confident that my pup was in good hands with Kristen. Will definitely hire her again!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and even rabbits. Friends and family have always trusted me to help with their pets, and I treat every animal like part of the family. I’d love to do the same for yours. I am currently a full time online college student and work at the elementary school during lunch/recess. My schedule is very flexible, so I can work with you to care for your fur babies when they need it most. While caring for your pet, I will be able to confidently keep them happy, safe and healthy. I feel comfortable with giving medications, light grooming, feeding, walking, playing, and maintaining any training you are doing. I am happy to scoop litter boxes and pick up dog poops in the yard too! Whatever keeps the routine predictable for you and your pet.

“Nadine is lovely. She was flexible when a storm occured during the scheduled walk time. She arrived early and brought her dog so my little guy had a companion, which he needed while I was away.”

About: I’ve had many different animals my whole life starting as a child. My Fiance and I currently have two dogs, aged 2 and 10 years old. Our animals are our world, they love walks, parks, car rides and snuggles at night. Animals deserve all the love in the world and I promise to treat your animals as I would my own if you choose me to take care of them! My schedule is mostly flexible as I work for myself crafting at home. Communication is key so let’s figure out what your pet’s needs are and what works best for them and you. I want your pets to be as comfortable as possible whether it be here or there so I do my best to keep your pets schedule as normal as possible for them. If your dog is at home with me there is a fenced in yard for play time and a quiet neighborhood for long walks as well.

About: I’ve been doing pet sitting and dog walking for over three years now, and I have become the top caregiver in the area. I’m a huge animal lover who really enjoys spending time with animals. I work a full time 9:00-5:00 job during the week, so I am only available around those hours. I am available within 10 miles of Poughkeepsie. I follow directions to a tee when providing in home sittings, and I ensure a nice clean home upon your return. I also do my best to encourage pets to keep their minds in a calm state.

About: I am a big believer that humans need dogs as much as dogs need humans and I would love to be that human for your dog! I am currently a student at Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine earning a Masters degree in Biomedical science. I have classes during the week from 8-12, but spend every minute after class home in my apartment with the exception of an hour break to go to the gym. On the weekends i am often studying, so I will be home at all times. I have a small one bedroom apartment that has plenty of room for a dog to have free range. I allow dogs on the furniture and bed so that is no issue. There is plenty of room for a crate, which i would prefer if I am leaving the dog alone while I am at class. There is an excellent 2 mile walking trail around my complex that I do daily and would love to take your dog as my companion!
