My wife and I cannot say enough good things about Sam! Great visits, played with our one unruly and terrifically needy orange, and treated them all (we have four cats altogether) like they were their own! Thank you, Sam for doing such a wonderful job!

Amruta is amazing! From the meet and greet I knew she would be a good fit for us. Tux was drawn to her immediately and is always so excited when she walks through the door. I have a very specific feeding routine for tux and amruta is diligent about following it. I am so happy to have found Amruta because I am now at ease when I go to work, knowing she dropping in to care for Tux. I cannot recommend her enough!

Mary Jane is fantastic and a wonderful caring person. She is very responsible and trustworthy. My cat, who is usually shy, warmed up to her and would greet her when she came. I am very grateful for her loving care to my Blue . I will definitely hire her again. Thank you!!

Donna took great care of my kitties! She kept me updated while I was away, especially relieving my concerns that my littlest one wouldn’t eat. She was prompt and made sure they got their treats - thanks Donna!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. My earliest memory is of my German shepherd at 3 years old running up to me and giving me lots of love and kisses. We can play as much as needed outside or just chill and relax inside with our friends. I am home most days so am generally available unless I get booked up to take care of your fur baby! You can rest assured your pet will be given lots of love with me! I have a toy poodle that loves company and playing with other dogs! I also welcome cats and can provide a large range of space or a more isolated environment, whatever they prefer!

We got lucky and Danielle was available last-minute for a drop in - we were able to get where we needed to be without worry, and we got some great photos of our dogs from Danielle while we were there. Thank you, Danielle!

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. Much of my experience is with dogs and horses. I have taken care of all age ranges starting with puppies and foals to senior animals. I also have experience with cats, goats, pigs, and chickens having grown up in the country. I was an active 4H member and completed their Veterinary Science courses at Cornell, so I feel comfortable giving medications and any wound care your pet may require. I am a Library Director in the Hudson Valley. I set my own schedule so my hours to provide pet services are flexible. I can work with the client to provide what their pets need. I am a responsible professional who owns their own home. I will treat your pets and home like my own and understand the importance of having a reliable, responsible pet sitter.

About: I am a dedicated student attending school in Hyde Park and living in Poughkeepsie. Being a local student gives me a flexible schedule and a responsible mindset, allowing me to provide high-quality, attentive care. I am a detail-oriented sitter who treats every pet as if they were my own. Specialized Care & Medical Experience I have extensive experience with special medical needs and chronic health conditions. I am personally experienced in administering insulin injections twice daily, so I am very comfortable with strict medication schedules and health monitoring. Patience for Anxious Pets I have a soft spot for anxious or nervous dogs. I understand that some pets require extra patience, a calm presence, and a gentle touch to feel secure. I am happy to work with pets who need a slow adjustment period or have specific "fear triggers," ensuring they feel safe and loved. Experience with all types of pets: • Dogs: From high-energy puppies to seniors with mobility or health needs. • Cats: Comfortable with all temperaments. • Small Animals: Experienced with bunnies, rabbits, hamsters, and fish. With my own reliable transportation and a daily commute between Poughkeepsie and Beacon, I am highly mobile and available to assist neighbors across the local area. Whether you need a mid-day check-in or an evening walk, my routine allows me to be in the area and ready to help. I treat every pet with the same level of care and detail I bring to my internship and studies at the CIA I prioritize safety by sticking strictly to your pet's routine to minimize stress. I am highly experienced in health monitoring and administering medications like insulin. I focus on keeping a calm, quiet environment for anxious pets and ensure your home remains clean and secure. You’ll receive frequent photo updates so you know exactly how they are doing.

About: Hi. My name is Kiki and I love dogs!! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I was a manager at a cage-free dog daycare for 5 years, where I handled everything from group play supervision to administering medications and managing daily care routines. I also volunteered for 3 years at Second Chance Dog Rescue, helping with socialization, walking, and basic training. In addition, I’ve provided trusted pet sitting services in Peekskill, NY for 5 years until the family relocated. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering all types of medications, and have a dog of my own—so I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I have a car, am highly dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Although I work full-time and attend school, I have large daily time blocks available between commitments, which I dedicate to pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits I care for every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while following their regular routine, my skills are administering medications, and giving personalized attention. Every pet has a specific personality so I try to respect that much like people.

About: I’ve been dog sitting and pet sitting for over 5½ years and have built experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I also have references available upon request. Outside of pet care, I’m a manager at Club Pilates, which has helped me become very reliable, punctual, and responsible with my time. I pride myself on communication, dependability, and treating every pet like family. I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Ever since I was a kid, animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have two pups of my own, and I would treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention as if they were my own family. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Leaving your animals with someone else can be stressful, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re safe, cared for, loved, and getting the attention they deserve.

Amruta did a great job looking after my two cats while I was away. She is responsible, caring, and excellent at communicating with me throughout. Even though my cats are shy, she spent time with them each day until they were ready to play. I would definitely recommend her and plan to schedule again with Amruta next time.
