“Candice was absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!! This was my first time leaving my baby boy with anyone! I was kept updated with messages and pics. Would definitely recommend and/or book with Candice again.”
“Deanne and Garrett did a great job and we’d happily use them again anytime. Our dog isn’t the easiest but I could quickly tell that they appreciated the individual she is and would do a wonderful job keeping her happy and safe.”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing!!! She was so responsive, sent lots of pics and I’ve never seen my dog so happy in someone else’s home! 10/10 experience!!! Thank you Nicole for taking such perfect care of Misha!!!”
“Jane is an amazing doggie caregiver. She clearly adores the canines and is kind and gentle with them. Her home is clean and set up to accommodate her guests. Her communication is prompt and she keeps You in the loop with pictures and videos. We are so glad we found Jane and will use her again.”
“Bob took such wonderful care of our pup over our wedding weekend! Our dog had such a good time and Bob even gave us updates (per our request ☺️). Thank you so much, Bob!!”
About: I’ve grown up with Chinchillas, Cats, Dogs, Ducks, Chickens, & Reptiles. My Fiancé & I currently have 3 Cats (they love dogs- but if any issues - can be kept separate in their cat room to create a more comfortable stay for any pet that doesn’t like cats), between me & my partner- someone is always home to give attention to & play with pets. (Aside from when we go to the store or doctors appointments). Your pets will get the best care!!! Someone will always be home with your pets, either I am home or when I’m at work my fiancé Deanne is home & is also a huge animal lover. The only times someone isn’t home is when we’re grocery shopping or at an appointment. We have the rail trail right in our backyard that goes for miles- it’s a great trail to take dog walks on! We usually do that or use tie outs or the dogs leashes in our yard since we don’t have a fenced in yard, but your pets are never left unattended on the tie-outs, someone will be outside with them at all times
“Jennifer, Thomas and their girls took such good care of our pup. They sent frequent updates and photos throughout the visit, and we could instantly tell how comfortable our dog was in their home. Cannot recommend them enough!”
“Lauren did a great job and even went out if her way to bring our dog Lola for a quick visit to our wedding. Lola got to play with Lauren’s other dogs and chill in front of her fireplace. She was sad to leave! Would recommend Lauren.”
“Sarah & Aaron treated Molly as a member of their family. They were patient with her and understanding of her needs. This and the updates they provided made us all comfortable. We will book again!”
About: My boys and I love dogs, and we love being at home, making us a fabulous choice for hosting your favorite loved one. Thank you for considering us! Hi, I’m David. I’m a stay-at-home dad to my two boys, Zenith and KoaSol, and we share our home with our dog, Magnolia — Maggie for short. We live on 10 private acres with open lawn, fields, gardens, and trails, far away from roads and traffic. We spend much of our time outdoors gardening, landscaping, cutting trails, playing, and caring for the property, so visiting dogs have plenty of fresh air, space, and attention. My boys are 11 and 5 and love dogs. They are excited to welcome new dog friends, while I remain solely responsible for all care, supervision, routines, and safety. Maggie is social, playful, and friendly, and she enjoys having other dogs around. I will respect your instructions and your dog’s normal routine as much as possible. Please share any important details about feeding, health, behavior, crate comfort, sleeping preferences, and how your dog does with children and other dogs. Meet-and-greets are welcome before booking, and I’m happy to send updates during your dog’s stay. My goal is to provide a safe, attentive, family-centered home where your dog is cared for with patience, respect, and genuine attention. Because I’m home most of the time, your dog will not be left alone for long periods. If we leave for errands, Maggie is comfortable in her crate, and we can offer the same option for your dog if they are crate-trained or feel secure that way. We also have a spare crate available, or you are welcome to bring your dog’s own bed, crate, blanket, or comfort items. While my kids are always game to play, I will be solely responsible for the care of your loved one!
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with Cipriana. She's knowledgeable, caring and responsible. It was nice that she contacted me to let me know how the dogs were getting along with her dogs and sent pictures as well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“We are so glad we found Brigid. Our dog, Roscoe, was comfortable with her right away when we had our meet-and-greet. Brigid asked good questions and took notes. She and her house are well-suited for a little dog visitor. She has a nice, fenced-in yard. Her couch is a cozy spot for napping, snuggling and looking out the window. Brigid stayed in touch with us leading up to our trip and while we were away. It was so fun for us to hear and see pictures of how Brigid and Roscoe were spending their time. I felt that they had developed a special bond and I can't wait to book Brigid again. I think Roscoe feels the same way.”
“Samantha and her partner were absolutely amazing. They are the best sitters I have met by far. I 10000/10 recommend. Samantha updated me throughout my dog's stay. I will definitely rebook.”
“I left my dog with Amanda just for one night and I couldn’t have been happier. My energetic dog, Zeus immediately got along with her dog, Enzo and they got to play in her nice fenced in yard. He was definitely able to get his energy out there, he came home exhausted. As soon as I dropped him off there I felt a sense of comfort. I knew that I had nothing to worry about. I highly recommend Amanda:)”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She helped us out when we were in a pinch and needed dog sitting for a weekend with only one days notice! We had never had Lucy boarded anywhere before and we were a bit nervous about the process, but it went so smoothly! She sent pictures to reassure my kiddos she was being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again for dog sitting in the future!”
About: I have years of experience with many different types of dogs. I watch dogs on a regular basis. For younger dogs I can offer a mountain hikes and for older dogs I can walk them on boardwalk trails that are easy on the joints, yet give the dog the sense of walking in the woods. I don't mind larger dogs at all. I also am willing to cook food for dogs. I very much enjoy the company of dogs and find that when they are well fed and exercised they are really pleasant to be around. Please give me honest description of your dog so I can plan His/Her visit accordingly. My house is set back (1000 feet) from a country road . I can pick up dogs in NYC , Great Barrington , Hudson, or Albany for a fee. I have watched many dogs over the years. Usually I try to walk them as much as possible. I feed them well , but make them follow the sit command before being fed and multiple times a day. All dogs have to be on a slip proof leash when outside or dropped off. Dogs often don't behave as they do at home . Once off a leash it can be very difficult to recapture a dog. In the house I don't crate dogs . We can only watch a few dogs at once. If your dog is very difficult let me know in advanced. Also Corgies get 10% off.
“As I write this review I look down at my pup who is exhausted from her stay with Mary and Todd. They took Harper in last minute for an overnight/all day play date with their other dog pepper. Harper was treated as one of their own. Over the course of her stay we had daily updates and shared pictures of the trip to art Omi and for evening/morning walks. I can’t thank them enough so I figured this review would be accepted as my appreciation. I would highly recommend them, you will not be disappointed!!! Thanks again Mary and Todd”
“Nicole is absolutely amazing! Our boys loved her. They were treated like little princes. She has a wonderful space dedicated for pups with lots of room to run, play and relax. Kept us updated on how they were faring and sent awesome pictures. Basically it was a vacation for the boys. She’ll definitely be our go to choice for taking care of our guys!”

“Sarah did an incredible job taking care of our 3 cats while we were out of town for the weekend! It was our first time using Rover, so we were naturally a little nervous, but Sarah did a great job assuring us before our trip that she would spend quality time with our cats and take care of their every need. She sent over great photos and updates with each visit, and even got our shy cat to come out and play! We are so glad we found Sarah and would trust her to watch our cats anytime! We came home to tidy litter boxes and our cats were very relaxed and well taken care of. Thank you so much, Sarah!”
“Alysha was amazing during her first visit today. My pup had anxiety about people she doesn’t know well when I am not present. Alysha went in without any hesitation and found ways to get our pup to engage with her. We will definitely be using Alysha on the regular! We wanted to find someone who was just like another family member and our dog could get comfortable with. I think we may have found it! Thank you Alysha!”
“Rachel was a super star and swooped in at the last minute to help take care of Lady and Cedric. The kitties clearly love her and she’s been a pleasure to work with. We’d love to book Rachel again!”

I raised my pup, Grumble, from 3 weeks old until she left this world at 11 years old. I am very familiar with the range of needs a dog will have throughout life, from teething to play to mobility assistance.

I can be flexible to your pets needs and more than happy to follow any directions you provide me with for their optimal care and contentment.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was five years old and continued to get more dogs. I have dog sat for multiple friends and family rating from dogs and cats. As far as training animals, I did grow up with having to train them so I do have some experience. I am currently working part time and go to community college but will be able to manage and work out a schedule that will be accommodating. I have 3 dogs that have invisible fences outside so they can roam free without getting lost, going to the road, running off. I have a big yard surrounding my house so they are used to running around freely. When it gets too cold they come in to the house or garage with my father. I am used to walking dogs as they do get walked on occasion at home or if we have them out of the house. I do not off offer services that welcome pets into my house but I am accommodating as necessary and will offer services at your residency.

About: Hi, I’m Ray! I’m based near Hudson and a proud lifelong animal lover. I grew up right here in the area—actually, I spent my early years on a farm surrounded by all kinds of animals. Our home was always full of dogs and cats, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. These days, it’s just me and my pup Biscuit, but my love for animals hasn’t changed a bit. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to work with you to meet your animals needs. If you have any questions or want to know more, feel free to send me a message—I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Your animal could stay over or I can house sit if that’s easier. I have many references off this app
About: Hello! I’m Jess, and I provide specialized walking and drop-in visits across the Catskill, Hudson, and greater Columbia/Greene County area. I don’t just walk dogs; I use every visit as an opportunity to build confidence, improve focus, and reinforce leash manners. My approach is built entirely on modern, science based Positive Reinforcement and LIMA (Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive) principles. I believe in rewarding behaviors we want to see, helping dogs learn safely, without the use of intimidation or aversive tools. I am currently completing dog training and behavior studies through the CATCH Academy curriculum. This ongoing education ensures your dog is in the hands of an informed and committed professional. I currently work part time on Sundays and Wednesdays, so I have plenty of time during the week to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I focus on leash manners during every walk to ensure a pleasant and comfortable experience. I can work with dogs on impulse control skills to help reduce pulling through positive reinforcement and force free training methods. If your dog has any triggers I will work to maintain distance and reward when calm to ensure success and keep stress to a minimum for your pup.
About: I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting for cats or dogs, and I’m happy to provide daily exercise, playtime, feeding, and medication support as needed. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to fit their needs and personality. I grew up with mid-size dogs and frequently watched smaller dogs for family friends in Pittsburgh. After moving upstate, I became a devoted cat dad to my black cat, Lola, for three years. Since then, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, including seniors with specific feeding and medication schedules. I'm attentive and responsive to every animal’s unique rhythm. I currently work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to drop in or house-sit for quality time with your pets during the day. I enjoy staying active and love being outdoors—so your dog will always get a good walk (and a happy walking buddy!). For overnight stays, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I pride myself on being responsible, respectful, and kind—treating every home and animal as if they were my own. As a freelancer who works remotely, I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m also available for house sitting and overnights provided there's stable wifi. I am a trustworthy house sitter/ walker who priotizes clear communication on expectations and house standards. I do not offer pet care from my own home.
About: I have a lot of hands-on experience caring for pets, especially cats and dogs. Over the years I’ve helped friends, family, and clients with pet sitting, feeding, walks, litter box care, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very attentive and truly enjoy spending time with animals.” Since I currently have a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate a lot of time and attention to the pets in my care. My day typically includes walks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m home often, which allows me to give pets consistent care, supervision, and companionship throughout the day.” I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets on their normal routines, and make sure they are supervised and comfortable at all times. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure their safety and well-being.”
“Simon helped my husband with our dog's walks after I hurt my knee. He was very responsive, always on time, and flexible. He has a very calming manner and Jack readily went to him and followed him out the door with no hesitation! I highly recommend Simon to care for your dog, and he will remain part of our pack! - Zelda”

I have always lived with dogs. And recently, have been thinking about getting a cat! I am an Occupational Therapist in a school district full time and love to farm and bicycle during my off time.

I might potentially be more available on a long weekend, when I am off from my school based job. I would want to care for your pets as you would or how you would want. I am great with a schedule and specific requests.

“Candice was absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!! This was my first time leaving my baby boy with anyone! I was kept updated with messages and pics. Would definitely recommend and/or book with Candice again.”
“Deanne and Garrett did a great job and we’d happily use them again anytime. Our dog isn’t the easiest but I could quickly tell that they appreciated the individual she is and would do a wonderful job keeping her happy and safe.”
“Jane is an amazing doggie caregiver. She clearly adores the canines and is kind and gentle with them. Her home is clean and set up to accommodate her guests. Her communication is prompt and she keeps You in the loop with pictures and videos. We are so glad we found Jane and will use her again.”
“Bob took such wonderful care of our pup over our wedding weekend! Our dog had such a good time and Bob even gave us updates (per our request ☺️). Thank you so much, Bob!!”
About: I’ve grown up with Chinchillas, Cats, Dogs, Ducks, Chickens, & Reptiles. My Fiancé & I currently have 3 Cats (they love dogs- but if any issues - can be kept separate in their cat room to create a more comfortable stay for any pet that doesn’t like cats), between me & my partner- someone is always home to give attention to & play with pets. (Aside from when we go to the store or doctors appointments). Your pets will get the best care!!! Someone will always be home with your pets, either I am home or when I’m at work my fiancé Deanne is home & is also a huge animal lover. The only times someone isn’t home is when we’re grocery shopping or at an appointment. We have the rail trail right in our backyard that goes for miles- it’s a great trail to take dog walks on! We usually do that or use tie outs or the dogs leashes in our yard since we don’t have a fenced in yard, but your pets are never left unattended on the tie-outs, someone will be outside with them at all times
“Lauren did a great job and even went out if her way to bring our dog Lola for a quick visit to our wedding. Lola got to play with Lauren’s other dogs and chill in front of her fireplace. She was sad to leave! Would recommend Lauren.”
“Sarah & Aaron treated Molly as a member of their family. They were patient with her and understanding of her needs. This and the updates they provided made us all comfortable. We will book again!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with Cipriana. She's knowledgeable, caring and responsible. It was nice that she contacted me to let me know how the dogs were getting along with her dogs and sent pictures as well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Samantha and her partner were absolutely amazing. They are the best sitters I have met by far. I 10000/10 recommend. Samantha updated me throughout my dog's stay. I will definitely rebook.”
“I left my dog with Amanda just for one night and I couldn’t have been happier. My energetic dog, Zeus immediately got along with her dog, Enzo and they got to play in her nice fenced in yard. He was definitely able to get his energy out there, he came home exhausted. As soon as I dropped him off there I felt a sense of comfort. I knew that I had nothing to worry about. I highly recommend Amanda:)”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She helped us out when we were in a pinch and needed dog sitting for a weekend with only one days notice! We had never had Lucy boarded anywhere before and we were a bit nervous about the process, but it went so smoothly! She sent pictures to reassure my kiddos she was being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again for dog sitting in the future!”
About: I have years of experience with many different types of dogs. I watch dogs on a regular basis. For younger dogs I can offer a mountain hikes and for older dogs I can walk them on boardwalk trails that are easy on the joints, yet give the dog the sense of walking in the woods. I don't mind larger dogs at all. I also am willing to cook food for dogs. I very much enjoy the company of dogs and find that when they are well fed and exercised they are really pleasant to be around. Please give me honest description of your dog so I can plan His/Her visit accordingly. My house is set back (1000 feet) from a country road . I can pick up dogs in NYC , Great Barrington , Hudson, or Albany for a fee. I have watched many dogs over the years. Usually I try to walk them as much as possible. I feed them well , but make them follow the sit command before being fed and multiple times a day. All dogs have to be on a slip proof leash when outside or dropped off. Dogs often don't behave as they do at home . Once off a leash it can be very difficult to recapture a dog. In the house I don't crate dogs . We can only watch a few dogs at once. If your dog is very difficult let me know in advanced. Also Corgies get 10% off.
“As I write this review I look down at my pup who is exhausted from her stay with Mary and Todd. They took Harper in last minute for an overnight/all day play date with their other dog pepper. Harper was treated as one of their own. Over the course of her stay we had daily updates and shared pictures of the trip to art Omi and for evening/morning walks. I can’t thank them enough so I figured this review would be accepted as my appreciation. I would highly recommend them, you will not be disappointed!!! Thanks again Mary and Todd”
“Nicole is absolutely amazing! Our boys loved her. They were treated like little princes. She has a wonderful space dedicated for pups with lots of room to run, play and relax. Kept us updated on how they were faring and sent awesome pictures. Basically it was a vacation for the boys. She’ll definitely be our go to choice for taking care of our guys!”
“Taylor was SO loving with our dogs, so wonderful to interact with, and fed our dogs some of the fancy raw diet food her dogs have. It was a holiday treat for our pups!”
“Jessica was great with Sascha. I really appreciated the daily photo updates of her & their walks together :) Communicates/responds quickly & very easy to work with. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Simon watched our little pup while we went away for the weekend. The two of them became fast buddies and we were grateful to know our little guy was with someone he was so comfortable with.”
