Pet Sitting in Skidmore

“Cheri was great with our old cats. She sent pictures every time she visited and gave them the attention they crave. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Emily was amazing! She was always responsive and punctual and sent me the best pictures. It made me feel so reassured that my pups were safe and happy while I was out of town. Thanks, Emily!”

Stephanie M.

“She was awesome. It was obvious that she has had experience with different pet needs and behaviors. I will be calling her again if I ever need a cat sitter!”

Joshua G.

“Michelle’s drop-in visits for our cat Aura were prompt & reliable. All tasks were completed. Michelle went over & above what was required. Because Aura hid under a bed as is her habit with most visitors, Michelle sought & talked with her and was able to reach & pet her. Finally Aura purred & looked relaxed in the photos Michelle sent everyday. This was Aura’s second drop-in experience with Michelle. We feel very comfortable planning future visits with her.”

“Ciarra is amazing! She came last minute when my family and I could not get home. She also left a very sweet Christmas gift for my pups. My friend also needed a sitter last minute and Ciarra had no problem taking care of my friends pup too! We are so grateful for Ciarra’s devotion to pups. I highly recommend Ciarra and her family if you are looking for a dedicated, professional pet sitter.”

“Wonderful experience with Bo! She was friendly, responsive, sweet and we caring. Also flexible when our travel plans changed not once, but twice! Would definitely book with Bo again to care for our cat.”

“Sagan is the BEST. Her detailed updates about my cat Jazzy gave me such peace of mind during my recent trip. Sagan is reliable and became good friends with Jazzy, which eased my mind so much.”

Julia G.

“Debi was amazing for our drop ins. Will continue to use her regularly in the future. Listened to all requests/details and was flexible with our schedule. Thanks so much!”

About: I have extensive experience with dogs, I was part of a group of 25 volunteers that started a dog rescue and I have personally fostered 37 dogs. I am excellent with puppies, senior dogs and those needing special care. One of my fostered needed to have multiple surgeries, PT and even wheels at one point. I am very patient and loving. I believe our pets are family and I will treat your pet as if it was my own. So you do not have to worry when you are away. I will send you photos and updates daily. I can t wait to meet your fur baby. Note: For house-sitting when you want me to stay overnight, your pet must be dog friendly since my 12 lbs Shih Tzu will need to stay over night with me. My dog is super friendly. I have my own business for 25 years with a home office and a nearby 2nd office. I have a flexible schedule to accommodate animal care schedules. I do not have a yard but I there are several parks and beautiful nature in the neighborhood and my dog is very friendly to keep your dog happy. I can crate your dog if needed. My townhouse is 2 floors. If your dog can not do stairs I can wither carry them upstairs at nigjt or put a gate at the bottom of the stairs to keep them safe.

About: I am a true animal lover. I think animals become our family and I want you to feel comfortable that I will treat your pet like my own went in my care. I have experience with many kinds of animals, dogs, cats, hamsters, and reptiles. I am patient and kind and love to get to know your pet. This is currently my only job, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available morning, afternoons and evenings for visits. I can help on weekdays or weekends. I first get to know your pets basic needs, ensuring their safety, and offering enrichment. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring proper elimination, creating a safe and comfortable environment, offering exercise and playtime, and attending to any medical or behavioral needs. I am comfortable with small and large dogs as well as small pets and reptiles.

About: I've been pet sitting since I was 12, and have had dogs of my own since I was 6. I have numerous neighbors who have relied on my services every year, not matter the pet type, age, or size. I have plenty of energy meaning longs walks, or even runs, aren't a problem! I have been the main care giver for my 3 year old family dog named Harley so rest assured I can tackle most hygiene issues (bath, teeth, brushing, nails, ect) , I have the emergency vet clinic saved to my phone, and I'm confident in my ability to help train for basic commands (sit, stay, heel, ect). I will be starting my freshman year at Middlebury college in VT around the beginning of September, but until then, I have a very open and flexible summer. I do share a care with my twin brother but I also have an ebike that I use to get to most places locally. While I'm very flexible, all I ask is that for most appointments, please leave time for me to meet you and your pet. I feel much more comfortable knowing both who I'm talking with and what precious fur ball I'm caring for. I make it a goal to treat your pet as if they are my own. When my family got our second dog, Harley, I ended up becoming her main care giver. So it's safe to say that responsibilities such as bathing, brushing, teeth, feeding, vet visits, emergency vet visits, walking, going to the park, and training aren't new to me. I know every pet is different but their level of care and attention should all be equally as high. I'm most familiar with pet sitting dogs, but I do have plenty of experience with cats as well. If there's any medical issues that your pet has, I'm happy to be taught about what exactly it is and how to properly handle it so as to keep them safe and healthy.

“Falon took a VERY last minute drop-in for me after my previously booked drop-in didn’t show up. I am so grateful! She almost immediately went to my house and took my collie outside to potty. I am usually always with him, since I work from home, and he’s not used to being alone and holding it in all day. I was frantically searching for a last minute solution from my infusion at the hospital, and Falon saved the day! She sent me four photos, spent 11 minutes with him and gave me the peace of mind I needed in order to rest until a friend goes to take him for a walk later this evening. I will absolutely be booking her again for actual walks!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for about a decade now, from raising my own little dog, to taking care of senior dogs of my neighbors. Ever since I was a baby I have been surrounded by pets, my deceased senior dog Dune and senior cat Buddy. I personally raised my 11 year old retriever Thor ever since he has been introduced to the family and I enjoy every single day when I wake up to play with him. I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs for months before and each day I would play, stay, and walk them. I enjoy spending time with ALL pets. My main purpose is to always make sure the pets are comfortable, happy, and safe above all else. I am currently free for the rest of the summer, so I have more time to play with your dogs! Can sit most days throughout the week, can do mornings and nights and afternoons. In my home I have a very friendly and respectful dog Thor if the dog is in my house, he will not be bored and will feel safe. In my house thee is an area where typically the dogs reside. I have a backyard and front yard where they will play (my neighborhood is very pet friendly and safe). At clients house, I would make sure everything is clean and orderly and take note on where the dog is and isn’t allowed to be in the house.

About: I have 4 years of experience working for a dog daycare where I had the privilege of working with every type of dog imaginable, from small to large, the timid to the ultra-hyper. I also grew up never having fewer than two dogs in our household at a time, so I know firsthand how much they mean to us all! I am grateful to be able to work fully remote, which leaves my schedule very open for whichever services you may be requesting, especially dog-sitting/walking while you're away for work. I treat them as my own! Aside from whichever instructions/special requests you may have for me, I give them my full attention and care because it's what I love to do.

“Cat is extremely communicative, timely, and great with my cats! She gave them lots of love while we were gone and took cute photos of them to let us know what they were up to. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Madison has been great with our two big dogs! She always comes on time and gives them good exercise in the middle of the day when we’re not home. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Madison!”

About: I've lived with dogs just about my entire life, and I've assisted in their care from the beginning to end of their lives. I currently live with one dog in the house, and I care for him alone on weekdays, including administering medications when needed. I also have experience taking care of other types of animals - I am versatile and flexible. I care for my own pet during the weekdays, but for most of the week he uses a daycare service, leaving me free to spend longer amounts of time elsewhere. He is also older and okay with being left in the house for a few hours even when I'm the only one watching him. I'm more than comfortable watching the house as well as the pets, and I will make sure that any house rules (no paws on the counter, etc) are upheld. As long as I'm acquainted with your house facilities, I will leave the place as neat as when I arrived, if not a little cleaner. :)

About: I have had animals my entire life. I currently have my precious girl Rose’ since she was 4 weeks old and she’s now 10 and I have my sweet boy Dwight whom I’ve had since he was only 10 days old. He is now 4 and was born deaf and only one eye. I’ve worked with 3 acres rescue caring for some of the most sad cases, taking pups for vet appointments, finding forever homes, and for three months I took care of three 10 day old puppies who were not thriving and they are all healthy and almost 4 years old. I currently dog sit for a good friend of mine. I just have this huge compassion and love for all fur babies. I’m looking for clients who will allow me to care for their fur babies and show them lots of love and attention! I have a huge soft spot in my heart for pitties and there are no breeds I don’t love! Im here for you and your fur babies needs! I have a very flexible schedule which gives me plenty of time to fulfill your fur babies needs and to show them the love and attention they need. I have a fenced in yard for my fur babies with signs posted. I have a 10x10 kennel outside for any lost animals in my community. I do not allow anyone to just run up and pet any fur baby for safety reasons. Fur babies deserve and require respect also. A leash is required for all dog walking.

“Alexxis was FANTASTIC with Levi! Highly recommend”
