About: Hi! I'm Liz, a dedicated animal caretaker with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and pocket pets. I'm passionate about keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe, whether it's through daily walks, playtime, or administering medications. I treat every animal like a member of my own family and take pride in providing consistent, loving, care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work from home, so pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine in a way that is structured but flexible, depending on the pets' needs, and the type of care I am providing. I have over an acre in my back yard that can be enjoyed for playtime with pets. I have secure doors in my house, and I keep my home secure and pet-proof. No small objects or breakable items in areas where we play and spend time. I have a pet first-aid kit on hand in my home. I have contact information for local veterinarians and emergency clinics readily available. I have some basic knowledge in first-aid and CPR for dogs and cats.

About: I took animal science at port ewen boces throughout my junior and senior year of highschool. I've learned pet care, restraints, handling and grooming. I've always had a love for animals especially dogs! Pet care fits into my daily routine because i have three dogs at home that i walk and feed everyday. day. I am very comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am confident handling both small and large dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and proper control when working with them. 🐾 When caring for pets, I always make safety a priority. I make sure dogs are either on a leash or in a secure fenced area and never left to wander off alone. I also pay attention to foods and situations that could be harmful to pets so they stay healthy and safe. 🐶🐱💕

About: I grew up with dogs, a cat, gerbil, fish, and even a rescue squirrel. I have been pet sitting for a few years and just love it. I take care of all breeds, ages, and size dogs as well as cats and other traditional pets. I can administer oral meds and ointments. While I am not a trainer, I do everything I can to reinforce any training they have or are undergoing. I am a full time pet sitter. I occasionally do some consulting but that is all WFH. I am flexible and don't have any day restrictions. While I am open to boarding and some dog walking, I typically do pet sitting in your house and drop-ins while people are out of town. My goal is to keep consistency for your animals. I ask questions to understand what they are allowed and not allowed to do, eat, etc. and I stick to it. I believe pets are a member of your family, not just some animal. I will do everything I can to create a safe environment for them. I will also take their lead. If they want pets, they will get it. If they are more standoffish, I won't force contact. Their well being is my #1 priority. You will find I am very communicative, and provide updates how and when you would like. While my 1st priority is their safety, my second, is providing you will peace of mind, so you can fully enjoy your time away.

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs and an occasional fish. I have a passion for animals and love learning all about their different personalities and quirks! I work part time and I’m free any time after 3pm and before 9am. Also free Tuesday and Wednesdays all day! I am willing to work with anyone’s schedule as well so if you need other times feel free to reach out and I can make anything work. I love spending time with pets. Going out for walks or playing outside and just snuggling up on a couch and watching a movie together! I like when they’re always in my line of sight just to make sure no ones getting into anything they shouldn’t.

About: I grew up in a home that always had multiple animals. Whether it was cats, dogs, fish, snakes and plenty more I was always taking care of different animals. Now as I’ve grown older the love for animals has not stopped. Dogs are really the best companions and can understand you more than some humans. The love I have for animals is truly the same love I have for family members. I’ll always make sure they are being well taken care of, fed, running freely or on walks, playing and always loved! Your dog will be treated like my own! My work schedule varies quite a bit, I may need to go into work sometimes & in that case my mother is typically home anyway. Otherwise I am home I have a fenced in area for the doggies to run freely. I have a dog of my own so I know what a dog needs and the love and attention they deserve! They can sleep wherever they’re most comfortable with at my home.

About: Hi, I’m Ady and I’d love to care for your furry friends! I have worked with rescue and foster dogs for the past six years, caring for a wide range of behavioral issues, medical problems and physical therapy, as well as severe separation anxiety. If your dog is shy or aggressive around new people, or a rescue who may need some extra support—I’m the pet sitter for you! I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to look after your pets! I do have reliable transport from the heart of Woodstock to the surrounding area so I’m happy to make a bit of a drive to reach you, even just for drop-ins or walks. My partner is unfortunately allergic to furry friends, so I get my fill of dogs through pet-sitting as much as possible! I approach each dog gently and slowly, attending to each dog’s unique personality and behavioral/medical requirements. I’d love the opportunity to make your dog feel comfortable while you’re away! My philosophy regarding anxiety in dogs is to mimic their regular routine as much as possible. So, whatever that may mean for your lifestyle and your dog, I’ll do what I can to ensure your dog feels safe. I am also happy to attend to any house-sitting duties (watering plants, taking in mail, etc) while I’m caring for your furry friend! I fostered a two-year-old rescue Catahoula & Pitbull mix this past Winter, with a routine of four walks a day and positive-reinforcement recall and leash training. If there’s anything specific you’d like me to work on with your dog, please let me know! Otherwise, I will make sure your dog is properly cared for and surrounded by a calming, loving companion.
