House Sitting In Upper Vailsburg

“Jay is the best. My Thunder who is a 75lb American Pitbull loves him and for anyone with this breed that once they trust you there is no such thing as personal space. This breed gets a bad reputation but they are cuddle buddies. Book him now and often you will not regret it!”

“Temi was quickly responsive and was able to help watch my dogs when my last minute trip came up. Thank you so much! He does an amazing job caring for my babies and sending me updates about them. You will not regret booking him to watch your fur babies!”

“Breanna was very responsive and took great care of Fitz. He is shy and cautious by nature, but seemed very comfortable and happy in the photos and when I returned. I think he had a great time!”

“Veronica was absolutely wonderful with my babies! She went above and beyond, from picking up new toys and treats for the girls, to taking them on adventures, and doing everything she could to make them comfortable and happy. I received a ton of pics and videos and it was easy to tell how happy my Lily and Bella were with Veronica's care. I highly recommend Veronica for your pet sitting needs.”

“Kethely was so sweet to my quirky munchkins and kept me updated throughout. I haven’t felt so secure about leaving my pets in a long time! I will absolutely book her again :)”

“Holy moly! I can’t brag about Safiya enough! From start to finish the communication was nothing short of incredible. She cared for my baby like he was her own. She cared for my home like she lived here. I feel like a found a member of the family not a sitter. Hands down, the best caretaker for anyone you love. Will ONLY be booking with her again in the future. 100000000000000000000 out of 10. Literally the greatest experience.”

About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.

“Mykaela was great with my fur baby! Definitely booking her again :)”

“Brad was really great with our dog Mooney! He gave daily updates and communicated very efficiently. We felt at ease knowing Brad was taking care of Mooney. Would highly recommend!”

Sarah G.

“Jestine was amazing! She took such good care of Stubs and the house and gave updates throughout the stay. Jestine is so thoughtful and sweet and truly understands the needs of animals. Highly recommend and will be booking her for future stays. Thanks!”

“It was our first time leaving our dog for a house sitting service, and Marli went above and beyond to make sure Halo and we were comfortable. She was super communicative during our time away, sent me many pictures and updates of Halo, and was super respectful of our home and all the notes we left for Halo’s care. We appreciate Marli and will definitely continue to use her when we can in the future. Thank you, Marli!”

About: I’m caring and respectful. My experience ranges from puppies to senior care. I will ensure quality care and that your pet is treated exactly the way you’d like them to be taken care of! I’m awaiting bar results and applying to jobs, so I’m currently available full time. Thanks for supporting a struggling law school graduate undergoing career transition! I’m very detail oriented and attentive. I have experience caring for my own dog daily. I will provide your pet with lots of exercise and fun activities as if it were my own.

About: I feel what makes me different from other candidates is that I have treats for them. I make sure they are always comfortable. I give you updates on how they are doing. I know as dog parents sometimes we stress of knowing how they are. I also have been working taking care of dogs since I was 15. It was helped me learn a lot through the years Taking care of your fur baby fits in my daily routine because I have extra time and I enjoy going on walks and they bring so much joy. What makes my home safe is that I live a safe area. There is a park across the street across the street. They also get the backyard. There are no kids and they will monitored.

About: Our Why? We have Huskies, and while still offering our service to other breeds, we highlight that it takes a fellow Husky owner to understand what a Husky needs. Despite their mischievous shenanigans, Houdini escape attempts, endless fur-sheddings, high-pitched vocalizations, bubbly, energized personalities, and hyperactive frolicking, we adore huskies. We understand finding experienced, dependable, loving, and trustworthy caregivers for your Husky isn't easy. That's why we are here to help. We currently have two friendly young huskies (one male and one female- fixed and crate-trained). We also have experience with English bulldogs, Sharpeis, Chow-Chows, Labs, Doodles, and Boxers. We only offer care for dogs based upon the comfortability of the match to our pet-care style and demeanor. We love our pets as we will love yours. We are focused on weekends, holidays, and summer care. We are open to possible weekday arrangements if your dog is crate-trained. Before booking us, a drop-by visit is required to test the compatibility of all humans and dogs. A few things: Special note-while we have never owned a French bulldog, we are particularly interested in learning to care for this breed. Your pet must be spayed or nurtured to receive boarding in our home. Also, we are sorry but we cannot offer care for full or mixed Pit Bull breeds. How does pet care fit into your daily and weekly lives? Our pets receive two meals a day, comprising dry food and water. Our pets are crate-trained and remain crated when owners are away. Most of the time, there is an adult in the house. Our dogs can access a large fenced backyard with green grass and trees. Our dogs walk with owners through nearby Branch Brooke Park and visit the dog park almost daily. Our dogs are crated during adult meal times and sleep in the main bedroom on the floor, side couch, or end of bed at night. We maintain a clean home and provide puppy pads during inclement weather to avoid mud and chaos. Pets have access to some rooms, but not all rooms in the house. Toys and treats are provided regularly. Linens on beds where animals may sleep are washed and switched out regularly. Our gate is blocked off on both sides because huskies are known for escaping. Our pets have ID collars and ID dog tags and wear GPS trackers during the day. Our dogs are up-to-date on immunizations and have been spayed/neutered. We don't hit our dogs with our hands or objects but use basic word commands. Training dogs is always a work in progress. They are both loved for their uniqueness. We only plan to care for pets in our home. We have a large and welcoming home.

About: I've grown up with dogs and cats, so pet care comes very naturally to me. I currently have a cat, and live with 2 other cats as well. I was a pre-vet major in undergrad, so I know quite a bit about animal care. I'm looking for something to fill up my free time in the evenings and weekends, and help out anyone who would like to go away for a weekend trip! I work a full time job, but I have free time to feed or walk animals in the evening, as well as time on the weekends to petsit, walk, or feed pets. My biggest thing is following any instructions you give! Every pet is super unique, so I will be sure to follow directions regarding feeding, medications, and walks. I promise to do every service with lots of love!!

“Rachel was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond in caring for our Duke, exceeding all of our expectations. She was prompt, extremely communicative, and provided frequent updates complete with pictures and videos. When Duke became picky with his food, Rachel quickly came up with helpful solutions. It’s clear that Duke loved her, and we will definitely be using her again!”

“Seanita took great care of our dog while we were away on a long trip. She sent lots of updates and made sure he got lots of walks and cuddles. He was a cheerful pup when we got home! Thanks Seanita!”

Rob and Kate M.

“Molly and her husband were great, they took care of our two dogs while we were away for a few days and made sure they were pampered and stayed healthy. They also left our place clean and went the extra mile to get our puppy some extra food when he ran out of it. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 9 years old and have always had pets in my home. From playful Golden Retrievers to energetic Jack Russells - and cats with all kinds of personalities - I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care that keeps pets happy and safe. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. That means I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stick to their usual routines, and be available for last-minute or extended care when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I provide lots of attention, playtime, and affection, while also making sure their feeding, walks, and any special care needs are handled exactly as instructed. I treat both the pets and the home with the same respect I would my own.

About: I’m a calm, reliable, and attentive sitter who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and each pet’s individual needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m especially patient with pets who may be shy, anxious, or need a little extra time to warm up. I take a steady, low-stress approach and always follow instructions carefully. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is being well cared for. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or staying with your pet, I focus on creating a calm and consistent experience for them. I’m currently a doctoral student in my second year and school consultant. I have a flexible hybrid schedule so pet care easily fits into my routine. I live in a condo building within walking distance from Maplewood Memorial park and other parks in the area. My building is also pet friendly and I care for pets by making good use of nearby outdoor spaces.
