Pet Sitting in Staatsburg

“Amanda was incredible! Super reliable and communicative, sent pics of our cats clearly having the time of their lives and not missing us at all :) she went above and beyond and brought in our mail and packages and noticed when the automatic litter box needed attention. We would love to have her back any time!”

About: I currently work as a physical therapist full time and started dog sitting while going to college in 2011 for a Great Dane named Maxx, from there I acquired many dog and cat sitting jobs through word of mouth and for friends and their family members. I have experience working with small dogs and bigger dogs. I love dogs and cats, I grew up having cats and had one dog. I will go the extra mile to give your pets all the love and attention they need. I take pride in making sure they feel at home while you’re gone. I’m currently working full time but have a very flexible schedule and a long lunch break so I’m able to be flexible with your pets schedule. I keep all my clients close to my work facility. I care for pets in your home. I love walking dogs and playing with them in their yard if they have one. I’m unable to care for pets in my home at this time.

About: I've cared for many cats and dogs, from pit bulls to terriers to English bulldogs. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and oral medication administration. I'm a patient and compassionate pet owner, and I promise to treat your fur babies with the same love and care I would my own. I'm also a graduate music student in case your pet might want to be serenaded by a french horn :) I'm a musician and graduate student at Bard. My schedule changes quite a bit, but I always have a good idea of what my schedule will look well in advance. In addition, I am generally free most mornings, and can often be flexible. I'm very happy to provide your dog(s) with walks, food, brushing, bathing, and medication. I love to play fetch with dogs, go on walks or hikes, visit dog parks, cuddle, practice tricks, or any other enriching activity. With cats, I love to cuddle, play, and practice or try new tricks with treats.

“Great with the dogs and reliable”

About: Hello! :) I love animals, dogs, cats, fish, pocket pets, exotic, etc.! I have extensive experience with cats and have been with cats my whole life and I have been told many a times that I am a very fast learner for anything I have not done before. In 2025 I completed the "Pet Sitting, Training, Grooming Microcredential" at SUNY Ulster. The Microcredential included the following classes; Pet CPR & First Aid, Behavior Medicine for Animals, and Restraint and Handling. As of 11/01/2024 I am certified in Pet CPR by RECOVER and ACVECC. And as of 02/23/2025 I have a certificate of Completion in the Fear Free certificate program by Fear Free Leaders in Animal Wellbeing. I am currently a student at SUNY New Paltz and I am usually there around 11am to 3pm 4 days a week (After May I will be available all days and times of the week). When I am not there I live in Kingston with my parents and two cats, Pilot and Trixie. I will make sure your pets get lots of play time while you are away. I can take pets on walks, water plants, get mail, clean up messes, etc depending on what you need. And I have no problem complying with any weird quirks your pets have. (My cats have some very specific games they like). I also like to report back on what we did, anything that is possibly out of the ordinary, and of course I can send pictures!

About: Volunteer with Guiding Eyes for socialization of 2month old puppies in my home in the past. Have 30 yrs + experience with my own rescue dogs. Now down to 1 senior dog who cannot walk long distances. Looking for new walking buddies! Retired and looking for new opportunities mostly during the week. Have volunteer work also, so prefer morning walks at this time; can come to you or you can drop off. I believe dogs thrive on exercise and daily walks; also great time to continue training and encourage obedience. Most dogs love to work out and be with their humans outside.

“Aliza is a warm and friendly sitter who was able to look after our two kitties on relatively short notice. She had some great ideas for how to handle feeding time based on their personalities and food-related behavior. She was also easy to work with. Will hire again!”

About: Hello , we are Ashlee and Shane and we have a fully wrapped around fence of our entire home. I also have a smaller fenced in yard if dogs need to be separate . Me and my husband have owned dogs our entire lives since childhood. Right now we have a female German shorthaired pointer puppy and I’m training her to be a therapy dog. Dogs are like little humans and we treat them like one of our own. They will have endless hours of exercise along with love and affection. We do have children so they must be good around kids. You will get pictures of your dog to ease your mind that they are safe and having fun. Hope to hear from you soon and can't wait to meet your furry friend. I have a German shorthaired pointer puppy that loves to play. I’m home full time and run a doggy daycare 4 sometimes 5 days a week. When requesting recurring daycare days, being flexible is important. I typically let my clients know the Friday before what my days open are for that week. On weekends daycare is closed but I still am available for dog boardings. Based off school activities, events and doctor appointments there may be times I step out as I have 3 children. I am outside with them at all times keeping them safe. No tolerance for aggressive dogs around dogs or children including food,gate or toy aggression . most of my families rescue which is a beautiful thing but please keep in mind that before boarding here you must know your rescues temperament very well around dogs, new environments and people especially children as my home can not be a test for that. To ensure your dog is suitable fit for my environment I assess your dog during a meet n greet and sometimes request you to leave for an hour or longer if further assessment is needed. It’s my job to make sure this is a safe place for all my fur friends here. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

“Kayla did a great job with Brandie our cattle dog mix with three visits including walking and feeding her while we were away overnight. She gave full reports and great pictures too. Will use her again.”

“Dan did a great job with our dogs…he was on time and posted update pictures each visit. I would strongly recommend Dan if you need a dog sitter!!”

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. After spending over 25years taking care of children I decided why not take care of pets? I retired from the classroom in June and ready to take care of your animals. Just no SNAKES. My schedule is extremely flexible. Retired! After taking care of the special education population for 25 years, I am excited to take care of pets. I feel it is important for the pets to keep their routine and have a consistent schedule. I love your pets like I love my own.

About: I grew up around dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve helped take care of my friends’ dogs, including Pip, whom I’ve watched since he was a puppy, and Martha, a more senior dog. I’ve handled walking, feeding, playtime, and just generally making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’m very responsible and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every dog as if they were my own. It means a lot to me to be given the opportunity to care for your furry friend. : ) I’m in university at the moment, so my schedule is pretty open. If there’s a particular time that you’re looking for, feel free to let me know and we can work something out! I live in a single on campus, with a decently sized room for any small or medium sized doggies, and there is a fenced in track behind my building/apartment if they wanna just run around with me for a while.

“Alexa was very communicative and took great care of my cat. I really appreciate all the cute updates and incredible photos and videos. I highly recommend!”

“Kery is a freaking angel! I'm terrible at remembering to leave reviews, but Keri has watched my babies many times now. It's wonderful to have someone I can trust with my animals. She sends photos and asks questions if anything comes up. I truly appreciate the time she spends with my animals. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!”

Julie K.

“Thank you, Janice and Noah! I can see that B basked in your attention and amazing that E is overcoming her shyness to come out to see you. It’s so good to be able to rest easy while we’re away knowing that the girls are in good hands.”

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.
