About: Lifelong owner of dogs, I enjoy walking playing, and exercising dogs. I am a current owner of a sweet, young, and energetic German Shepherd, who is very well behaved. I am a recent early retiree and looking for something fun to do during the weekdays, I am very responsible and would love to work with your dog. I have a fenced in backyard, our dog has a GPS tracker, she’s microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations. I would expect the dog that would need to be taken care of to be up to date on all vaccinations, as well.
“Sarah took exceptional care of my cat! I felt very lucky to have such a kind and communicative person look after her while I was out of town. I can't recommend her more highly!”

“Michelle is simply just lovely. Prompt (early actually). Caring. Very sweet w our pets and attentive to our endless direction with our special needs dog as well as our cats. All of our animals are rescues from abusive situations so we are protective. She got that immediately without having to say a word.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. We have a 2 year old golden puppy. Who rested as if she’s part of the family. She is soo loved and so spoiled. I also worked at a groomers shop so I have a lot of experience with different dogs. I am currently working part time and attending short days at college four days a week. I have a lot of free time though and especially on my weekends I have a lot of time At home my dog has a perimeter collar so she is free to wander about our yard as she wishes. When I am dog sitting I always have the dog on a leash and I stay outside wi he them the entire time they are outside
About: Throughout my life, I have taken care of and loved the family dogs and cats. Experiencing the love from my childhood pets, Buddy (golden retriever) and Maggie (cat), has been what has solidified my passion for pet care. There’s nothing quite like the emotional connection one can have with their beloved pets. Our new beautiful golden retriever, Chelsea, has been nothing short of a joy to raise and train. She is full of energy and loves to be loved. I just recently moved back here in Hudson, so my schedule and availability is very open! You name the time and day and I will do anything to make it work. My schedule is pretty consistent with classes starting at 8:30am and ending around 10:30-11:00am. The rest of the day and night is open! Especially weekends! I will always respect my clients’ wishes when it comes to pet care inside their homes. Some things I make sure to focus on are rules and preferences for your pet(s) during a visit - (stay off furniture, stay out of certain rooms, follow medication regimen, potty and outside schedule, their pets’ diets, and many more things that ensure the safety of both your pets and your home.
About: I’ve had animals throughout my entire life. When I was younger, my parents ran a boarding kennel and my father bred dogs. I grew up on a farm with about five horses, 35 dogs, several cats, a bird, lizards, fish, hermit crabs, etc. My father trained my brother and I to race sled dogs at a young age and we did that for several years along with horseback riding. With that being said, I have extensive experience with different types of animals, and I am confident that you’re fur baby will be in good hands and have the time of their life while under my supervision. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and I hope to hear from you soon! I am currently working at a private residence where I make my own hours , so I have plenty of time to take care of your baby! I can accommodate you and your pet(s)in whichever way you desire! I usually bring my little tuxedo cat with me on trips if it’s an overnight, but if you would rather me not, we can always work something out and discuss our options! (:

About: Hello! I've been an animal lover my entire life. My dog, Zeke and I had a companion kind of relationship, built on mutual respect and happiness; it's something I wouldn't have traded for the world. He sadly passed away in October after 12 years together, so it would be an understatement to say I'm more than happy to pour extra love to your pup. ___________________________________________________________________________ This is a new offering as of August 2024. I have discovered that adventures are my ideal experiences and would like to advertise as such! Mountain hikes, kayak paddles (>15 pounds), and bike cart rides for the senior pups are my favorites, but I am open to other ideas/training requests! Paddleboarding, swimming lessons...the possibilities are endless. One hour minimum is preferred; gas and travel time to the adventure site are included. I have many mountains, lakes and trails on my list, so I do not see it as fair to charge you for that time! You will only be charged for adventure time. Depending on your pup(s) comfortability in the car, we may travel up to 45 minutes. You and I will decide together on location details, and this app will track where your pup(s) and I are at all times. Wilderness First Aid trained, canine safety versed, ample water provided, and pups will always be kept safely on the leash. Your pup will return home satisfied and tired! ____________________________________________________________________________ For a NORMAL NEIGHBORHOOD WALK, please book a drop-in visit and message to remind me that you would like a walk. Availability for walks and drop-ins will change after Labor Day. Unavailable most weekdays 12-3:30 I am a caretaker by nature, and have been a teacher for the past 4years, a live in nanny before that and most recently a grade school teacher. I'm going back to school to get my licensure. Honestly, care taking and fresh air gives me clarity of mind, and the chance to peel away from the screen helps process all the new information! I am trying to practice running again too, if your canine would like to train with me. Familiar with many local trails and parks. All weather is good weather! Experience with dogs with seizures and giving various medications. Feline friend as well. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends ! I currently do not have a car, as I am waiting on a large repair. The closer you are to Philmont, the better! I work during the week. I offer boarding very rarely. When I am in your home, I try to leave it better than I found it. I have spent a fair amount of time farming and gardening, so plants will be well cared for if asked.
About: I have taken care of my own dog for his whole life until he passed early this year. I have dog sat for friends, family, and coworkers a lot and have taken them for walks or stayed the night! I am in grad school currently and will be able to stay over on the weekends and play with the dogs anytime after 4 in the upcoming semester! I am used to crating dogs and taking them for sage walks, especially in the winter and summer months. I love to give a routine and will make sure to follow all guidelines provided!
“Ellie loved Jialin! She came inside from after the walk eagerly to tell us about her new best friend. I will absolutely be rebooking with her. So lucky to find her and John.”

About: I have taken care of my own and all of my family members pets for many, many years. Not only dogs and cats but also snakes, birds, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, lizards and chinchillas. My family was always saving animals and had a great love for all animals. I am pretty open and retired and looking to spend time with animals. I prefer a smaller breed of dogs if needing to walk for safety reasons. If a fenced in yard is provided, I would be open to larger dogs as well. I will not be caring for other pets in my home. I will be available to do drop in visits for most animals and walks.
About: Hello! My name is Kerin. My love for these 4, sometimes 3, legged k-9’s we call family! My love for them runs through my family’s blood as we have a dog rescue, Pooches Out Of Puerto Rico. As you can imagine I’ve worked with all sorts of dogs. Some totally goofy to some begin extremely aggressive due to fear or pain. You name it I’ve experienced it. There’s nothing I won’t do for these hairy family members. DM me so we can chat about scheduling you a vacation whether it’s a long, extravagant trip or a short sweet little trip. I’m your girl and can’t wait to hear from you! It doesn’t matter if you have a fence or not. I can take your dog/s out for walks or go to play parks. You tell me what they and it consider it already done! Of course expect some pictures while your away!
“Jose did an amazing job with Marley! I was able to leave an entire week without having to worry once. Was always on time and walked my dog to the park every time. Marley loved Jose, so much so Marley was playing fetch with sticks which I’ve never seen him do! Jose also took amazing pictures at every check in”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds. I did it for neighbors, family, and friends since I was 12. I take special care in loving each animal I encounter as if I was their owner.
