Dog Sitting in Ulster Park

“Alexander is incredibly reliable, kind and helpful in taking care of Skipper. He goes above and beyond in making sure that our older dog is consistently given walks, meals and even an insulin shot”

“Allie is so great to work with. Always on time, thoughtful updates, does whatever’s needed to take care of my cat, and is great about communicating and asking questions as needed. On top of that, my cat, who isn’t comfortable with many people other than me, is super comfortable around her. Really thankful for her help, and for making everything so easy!”

Joseph K.

“Kaya was wonderful! She took a last minute request and was so delightful. Our dog was safe and happy while we went to dinner. Thank you Kaya!”

“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!”

Rachel C.

“Alice was great, very intelligent and responsive, and capable of taking extensive notes from nervous cat parents.”

“When I saw Paige was on Rover, I jumped to book her for drop-in visits during our vacation. Knowing her dedication and boundless affection for pets — no matter their quirks or issues! — from her work at the Ulster County SPCA, I knew my husband and I would be able to enjoy our trip without worry for our two elderly cattle dogs who need daily medication. Sure enough, our pups were well-cared for and are now both big fans of her. Thanks again, Paige!”

About: I have years of experience caring for cats, dogs and rabbits. I have cared for older dogs with diabetes who require a daily shot and given extra play time to younger cats and dogs who need to use up their energy. I can provide care for multiple animals in one home and adjust to each pet’s personal needs. As a cat owner myself, I am sensitive to each cat’s personality and unique nature. I have given oral medication to cats who need treatment and always interact with them on their terms. I am happy to discuss your pet’s personal needs in order to keep them comfortable and happy. I love spending time outside. I often go for walks and hikes and love taking dogs along with me. Reach out with your pet’s needs and we can work something out. I make sure to follow the routines that your pet is comfortable with in their home. I always aim to be sensitive to your pets needs, body language and comfort level.

“Monica is fantastic! I have used her multiple times and always feel confident that my dog is happy and safe.”

“I felt comfortable having Katrina come into my home and let my boy Reggie out! She was quick to respond and she took good care of the little guy!”

About: I love to admire and take care of pets, I’m very patient with animals and will take the time to better understand them. I’m also very open to any kind of training if necessary. I work weekdays until 5pm. And then have the rest of the day for walking dogs or feeding cats. Looking for about 2 hours of dog walking at the end of the day during the weekdays. I have an suv car so I can offer lots of space for a bigger dog and I have a very watchful eye and will make the best judgment calls to my ability.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 11 years. I work as a vet assistant. I am trained to read an animals body language and look for signs of distress. I am a very patient, caring, compassionate and empathetic individual. I genuinely enjoy meeting and caring for all types of animals, and I look forward to caring for yours! (: I do work full time, but otherwise I have open availability. I am willing to work around my schedule to help meet your needs (: I feed them, clean up after them, give them medication if needed, bathe them, walk them as often as needed. If your animal is on a schedule of any kind, it will be cared for accordingly.

About: Hi there! I’m Gaby, and I’ve been caring for beloved animal friends, including dogs, cats, (and even ducks!) for private clients over the past six years. Whether it’s a daily walk, an overnight stay, or simply some loving company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m reliable, experienced, and passionate about what I do, and I’m now expanding my pet care services through Rover to reach even more furry (and feathered) friends. References from long time clients are happily available upon request. I believe trust is everything when it comes to your pets. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your companions and be part of their happy, healthy routine. As an artist and student attending Bard College, I structure my days to be present and attentive; qualities that naturally extend to the animal friends I care for. My schedule is flexible in the evenings and on weekends, which means I can accommodate night visits, drop ins, and extended weekend stays with ease. Caring for animals is a grounding and joyful part of my routine. Whether it’s early morning feeds before class, relaxing evening walks, or playful visits on weekends, I prioritize each animals' comfort and happiness as part of my daily flow. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine and trainings as consistent as possible with feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles all happen on schedule to keep them comfortable and happy. I respect your space, clean up after all visits, and make sure your pet feels calm and safe until you return. When caring for pets in my own home, I create a welcoming, low stress environment with plenty of attention, enrichment, and comfort. Whether in your home or mine, my aim is to communicate clearly with updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.

About: Hi I’m Angie :). I have loved and cared for pets since I was 8 years old. From cats to dogs to turtles and birds I truly love all creatures big and small. I have experience with caring for older dogs and cats as well as young pups and kittens. I am an avid walker and love active animals with high energy. Currently my schedule has maximum availability for all seven days of the week :). I will however be starting a part time position soon which would leave most of my availability to weekdays and some weekends I currently do not offer pet care in my personal home as my house mate has severe allergies. I do however pet sit on location.

About: My family always had many pets in the house. From a very early age I learned how to be nurturing, caring, and dependable. I work in the human services field aspiring to be a clinical social worker. My full-time job is in children services including respite care and comprehensive case management experience. I consider myself a deeply caring individual that animals seem safe and calm to be around. Any and all ages of dogs and cats are welcome -- I will do everything I can to ensure your favorite companion is well taken care of! I think to start I would like to do weekends. I generally work 9-5pm so I can be flexible in the evenings as well. I'm open. I put the animal first, gauge their comfortability, and remain highly perceptive to behavior and environment. I have experience managing big dogs and puppies (100+) on leads, in highly populated areas (Downtown Brooklyn), and feel confident in my care-taking abilities. In the past I have babysat and nannied children. In my current role I often have home visits with my families (many of which have various species of pets).

About: Hi! My name is Kyra and I am 30 years old living in Kingston, NY. I have had, and taken care of dogs and cats of all sizes for my entire life. I currently have a 5 year old lab mix named Chester, a 3 year old Lab/Catahoula mix named Griffey and an orange tabby cat named Manny! I have had dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, you name it, my entire life and love all animals of all sizes. I have extensive experience taking care of dogs with separation anxiety and who are not friendly with other animals. I work remotely and my schedule is very flexible. I'd love to help take care of your fur babies while you're away or at work. I will happily provide your animal with as much exercise and love as needed! I work remotely with a flexible schedule to help out while you're out or away. I have a lot of availability this summer to watch your pet, as well! I will happily travel to you and take care of your pets in whatever way best suits your needs. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to ensure your pet feels safe and loved.

About: Growing up with 6 dogs in our home at once, I have a special connection and love for animals. Working with rescues, pure breed dogs, females in heat and knowing how to whelp, has given me plenty of experience. I have been boarding dogs in my home for over 7 years. I am home full time, with the occasional errand to run. There is a place to hike, with great trails, right up the road from my home. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can run, play and hangout in the sun. I live on 9 acers, for us to explore and go for walks. I have dogs of my own, so your dog will have plenty of socialization and play time. Raw food diet or special dietary issues are not a problem. Meet and greet is required for all potential stays.

“David gave our two kitties excellent care. He fed them, played with them, cleaned up after them and took the most beautiful photos! During each visit he took photos and we really enjoyed seeing that the kitties were happy and cared for. I would definitely rebook David in the future!”

“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!”

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.
