“I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for dog day care or boarding She communicates well and goes the extra mile to make your pet feel comfortable and happy Not only did Buddy have a Christmas themed neck scarf but also a Christmas toy! She clearly loves dogs and is proficient and skilled in all aspects of their care We had total peace of mind while we were away and she sent us some beautiful pictures of Buddy!”

“Loretta is AMAZING! We left our dog for the first time ever with her & by the time we came back for him to pick him up, he didn’t wanna leave! She sends pics & videos the entire time & it’s just reassurance that your fur baby is doing just fine! It’s never easy to leave our pets but if you ever need to, book Loretta! You will not be disappointed. She is our official dog sitter!”


“Christine is a life saver ! She took great care of our girl on such short notice. She sent pictures and was very quick to respond. Our pup was happy and tired when she got home. Thank you Christine !”

“Volha was fantastic! She would update us with photos everyday. Volha asked us about our dog’s( Lisa) routine to make sure she was most comfortable during her stay without too many changes. We will definitely ask Volha again to watch Lisa in the future!”

“Donna was great. She treated my dog like he was her own. I felt extremely confident that Guinness was being very well taken care of. Guinness came home very happy but tired from all the fun he had playing with Donna's dogs. I will definitely use Donna and her services again. I'm very happy. I found her thank you so much.”

“Reka is an amazing sitter. Her attention to care is unmatched. She made Saint feel like part of her family. She’s very responsive and sends daily updates and photos. I would recommend her to anyone wanting their pup to receive the same level of care and love that an owner would give their own. She’s the best!”


“My dog had a great time with Jennifer, Thomas and their kids. They’ shared photos of her getting petted on the couch and going on walks. She was exhausted when she came home after having had a very fun day with this lovely family.”

“Cherissa and Ricardo were great with my 4yr old pup. They took very good care of him and sent pictures of him and let me know he was doing great. I would recommend them to anyone to watch their dog! Great job thank you!”

“Saori was great. Our one year old lab was in heaven at their place. We received a puppy that was well cared for and had gotten a lot of socialization and exercise is a safe environment.”

“A great first experience boarding our dogs! We really appreciated the daily updates with photos of our pups with all the friends they made! Highly recommend Jeff and Bruce, they surely made our dogs feel safe and loved.”

“Mary Ann was absolutely wonderful to work with! She watched our elderly blind and diabetic dog for us during a weeklong trip, and the peace of mind we felt knowing that our dog was so well cared for was such a gift. Mary Ann took time to do a meet and greet before our trip so that our dog could get to know her and her property, and so that she could take detailed notes on our dog’s needs. We also received periodic updates while we were away. Mary Ann truly goes above and beyond, and we will gladly request her services again when the need arises! Thank you!!”

“Janice took great care of our almost one year old golden retriever on a recent weekend stay. She was caring, thorough, and only takes on one pet at a time so she can provide one on one care and attention. Ellie loved getting to know Janice’s two dogs and cat and enjoying the beautiful fall weather from the relaxing farm atmosphere. Janice sent frequent updates and photos throughout Ellie’s stay, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our time away. I would definitely book her again!”

“Well Ms Annette was WONDERFUL. Can't recommend highly enough. She obviously has an affection and ability with dogs, witnessed from the first second of our in person interactions in her driveway. It made me feel so relieved to have her take care of them, especially since she sent me updates and photos of them every day. She's fantastic and I'm looking for another trip in that vicinity so I can drop the two boys (mini dachshund, cockapoo) off for another visit to Ms Annette's house in Pawling!”
“Patricia is conveniently located and a pleasure to work with. She has a calm demeanor and very loving toward Lyla. Her home is set up well to host pets and she is diligent about their care. Clearly pets love her as mine seemed to quickly adapt and was not in a hurry to leave! She’s a terrific choice iof you’re in the Amenia/ Sharon/ Salisbury/ Millbrook etc Ara. Thank you Patricia!”

“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”

“Samantha and Michael were wonderful to our dog, Pete. They were super communicative and kind. They shared lots of pictures and I knew Pete was in the best hands. They took extra care to search him for ticks after they found one on him, which was really a next level thing for them to do. They clearly care about the dogs in their care and we highly recommend them.”

“Thalya did an amazing job taking care of our 3-year-old dog, Lucky Oreo. She was incredibly responsive, sending regular updates that kept us reassured and informed. Her loving care and attention made all the difference, and Lucky Oreo was clearly happy and well looked after. We highly recommend Thalya for her exceptional pet-sitting services!”

“My dog had a great time, we were very nervous for it being our first time leaving our dog, and Maria made us feel comfortable and reassured us that our dog would be fine, he was. Thank you Maria and your mom!”

“Rachel was ideal in every way! Great communication, totally responsible, left the house in beautiful condition, made the cat fall in love with her. My time away was stress-free knowing that Rachel was caring for my guy Herbie.”


“Ebony is a lifesaver!!! Took care of our four pets for 3 days super super last minute — she is super communicative, sends pictures often, and took our dogs on a walk daily. I have a kitten and she took special care of him. Took extra time to make sure each pet felt comfy with her. She’s our go-to sitter now!”

“Elizabeth saved me in a pinch when I couldn't get home--she came over and walked my dog, whom she'd never laid eyes on, and brought her cute daughters to give her a snuggle. Plus sent me a picture of the scene, with my happy dog soaking up the attention. Thanks again!”


“Kayla has been the absolute best cat sitter I could’ve asked for!! My cat is generally very shy with new people but with Kayla’s warmth and friendliness she opened up right away and loved playing with her :) Kayla is super responsive and absolutely would book with her again!”


“Christine was amazing! Extremely friendly, accommodating, and took great care of my fur babies. I definitely would recommend! Thank you Christine!!”


About: I have cats of my own and have experience in caring for both young and elderly cats. I have taken care of timid, shy, and outgoing kitties and know when to respect their space or give them some love. I am able to clean litter boxes, offer enriching play time, and administer medicine.

About: I had an older cat when I was younger that just wanted to be left alone and now have adopted 2 kittens that constantly want to be pet. I think the vast difference between their personalities has prepared me to take care of others.

“Timothy was a great sitter for our elderly cat. He was patient, kind and easily administered medication for our fur guy. We absolutely will hire Timothy again when we’re out of town and know our cat Stoopy would be in good hands.”

“Stephen is amazing! He’s well-versed with large breeds, and we were so happy to find someone experienced who Bowser absolutely loves walking with. He’s always punctual, and after just two walks, Bowser is already so excited to see him! It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Stephen is definitely that person. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you, Janice and Noah! I can see that B basked in your attention and amazing that E is overcoming her shyness to come out to see you. It’s so good to be able to rest easy while we’re away knowing that the girls are in good hands.”

“Jessica asked questions when necessary, made sure she understood what my cats needed, and was patient in making friends with my shy lady. The cats were happy, the house was tidy, and everything was great. We would have her back again to cat sit. Thank you!”

“Kayleah looked after my older cat for two weeks and had a real connection with him. He is very timid and doesn't like everyone. Her care made all the difference in the world to me knowing he was in good hands while I was away. I will definitely have her care for him again!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I rescued my first dog from the local humane society when I was 11, and that experience started a lifelong passion for caring for animals. Before becoming a nurse, I worked as a veterinary assistant for two local animal hospitals where I gained valuable hands-on experience with animal care and handling. I developed skills in basic training, puppy socialization, reading animal body language, medication administration, subcutaneous fluids, nail trimming, grooming, and bathing. I also volunteered for several years with a local dog rescue as a foster, helping provide temporary homes, structure, and love for dogs before their adoptions. Many needed socialization, basic training, and a calm environment to help them thrive. I later served as the rescue’s foster and event coordinator until 2020. Today I share my home with three of my own beloved dogs. One of our previous dogs had epilepsy and required frequent monitoring and medication, which gave me additional experience caring for pets with medical needs. In my free time I enjoy traveling, camping, hiking with my dogs, training with our Belgian Malinois, and watching my daughter ride her horse. Caring for animals has always been a true passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a nurse who works three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several days off to dedicate to caring for animals. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is fairly flexible on my days off, and I’m happy to work with you to meet your pet’s individual needs and routine. Please check my calendar for availability and feel free to reach out with any specific requests. I will always do my best to accommodate and treat your animals with the same care and attention I would give my own. At this time, I’m unable to host dogs in my home, but I’m happy to care for them in the place they feel most comfortable—your home. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and extended daytime care depending on your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care in a calm and compassionate environment, treating your pets with the same attention and kindness I would give my own.

“Wonderful experience - we had to rush out of town twice because of an elderly parent’s health. Samantha was there for us both times even though it was short notice. She saw to our cats needs and even helped out with an issue with unplugging a machine that was left running. Wonderful lady!!!”

“Kennedy has a fabulous time with Samantha and Michael and their adorable kids! We got updates and pictures and they were very quick to respond. We were very happy and would highly recommend them! Kennedy would love to come back to play!”


“We were in town for an event and needed someone to watch our 5 month old puppy for the day. Christine was perfect! She is so nice and has a friendly boxer puppy. My puppy can be aloof with strangers but he took to Christine immediately even letting her hold him right away. Christine's yard is perfect and our puppies played all day. I would go back to Christine's anytime we are back in Queens.”

“Janice is loving, attentive and kind. She communicated well during Addie's visit; we were given frequent updates to help reassure us that Addie was adapting well to her new environment. Addie seemed relaxed and in tune with Janice from the start. We had an introductory visit before our first drop-off where we could see that Addie felt comfortable and confident with Janice and her family. We could see from the photos that Janice sent that Addie was enjoying her time and getting to know the other animals (cats, dogs, sheep) that are part of Janice's home and farm. We could not have hoped for a better outcome. It meant a lot to us that Addie enjoyed her stay because she has a tendency to experience some separation anxiety, but she didn’t seem to have any that day. Janice has a gentle way with animals and is genuinely interested in how they feel and what they need. Addie received excellent care and loving attention during her visit.”

“My dog loves to go to Stephen’s for doggie daycare and comes home tired from her day there. I feel comfortable having her there and I will be using Stephen again to watch my pup.”

“Brody had a great time meeting Alison and Jack. It was calm and clean when we got there. Brody was only there for a meet and greet (2.5 hrs). When I got back he was really happy to see me!”

About: Ever since I was young, I have had a strong love for animals, especially dogs. I grew up surrounded by dogs and currently have two of my own. Over the years, I have pet-sat for neighbors and friends, and I always enjoy caring for and spending time with their pets. At college I am part of a club where we work with and volunteer at the local animal shelters. There are photos on my profile that highlight some of the events on campus I have volunteered at to raise money for the puppies at the local animal shelter. I do also have experience with horses. My experience has strengthened my passion for working with animals and reinforced my commitment to providing them with attentive, compassionate care. I currently have a lot of availability to be able to take care of your pets. I can board and attend to your pets any day of the week. I have a fenced-in backyard and two dogs of my own as well. I have a 10-month-old male English Bulldog and a 3-year-old female French Bulldog. They are both very friendly and love playing with other dogs. At your residence, I will respect any boundaries you may have and provide the best service I can.
“Rosalie was SO GOOD and patient with our nervous chihuahua. She sent great updates and he had a lovely time in her home and fenced yard. We highly recommend her for dogs of all sizes! :)”

“Nicole took such a good care of Mochi, we are so grateful! She sent me updates with photos, videos and texts of Mochi. We got back a happy dog. We ll definitely use Nicole’s services again. Many thanks!”

“Nayeli is so amazing! She treats all the dogs like they’re her own and my pup had such a great time hanging out with her dogs. She sends updates and photos throughout the day so I know he was having a good time and getting energy out. Highly recommend if you need a daycare for your furry buddies.”

About: Hello! I’ve worked in many animal related industries including boarding and LLivestock management. This has given me ample experience in care and a nuanced understanding of animal emotion and signals. I provide attentive care and seek to accommodate the individual needs of all animals in my care. They will be well-watched and cared for! I work from home with my sweet dog Rae. We take frequent potty breaks and time to chase sticks and toys. Dog care is built into my schedule, which is flexible to accommodate any needs your dog might have. Our large yard is not fenced but we keep an avid eye on all dogs at play. If desired, we have a tracker collar that gives us live updates of their location to ensure extra precautions. If your dog loves to run and play they will have play of space to do so! Rae is a great play companion but also gives other dogs space if they would like.
About: Hi y'all! I am an all around animal lover. My girls and I take any dogs that we are watching on walks with us every night, we have lots of fun. Pets are allowed on the furniture, unless you state explicitly state you don't want them to be. I prefer not to kennel overnight, but there are always exceptions to the rule! I am able to help with puppies and older pups alike; age is not an issue. Please ask any questions you may have for me, thank you so much we can’t wait to meet you! I am currently working part time but I am always available for nightly drop ins or for any early morning stops on my way in. I am always respectful of your safety protocols, gates are always double and triple checked, doors are always checked to be shut correctly. Food and water levels are consistently monitored. Instructions are always followed to the letter.
“Kimberly was amazing! Very attentive to my Macie and reassured me when leaving my pup for daycare for the very first time. Macie loveed her and have a wonderful day at Kimberlys! We're looking forward to booking again!”

About: My own dogs are always the #1 teacher. They show me how to best care for them - with food, play, training, medications, travel, sleepless days and nights when they've been ill, and giving them all them comfort I can. I've volunteered at dog shelters, spent hours walking dogs in all kinds of weather, and offered comfort to friends who've had to say goodbye to their best fur friends. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention - playing, feeding, and scratching behind the ears. I take my dog for swims in the river, off leash romps in the woods, and leashed walks around town. We also play fetch and tug-of-war in the house or on the deck. If your dog needs a playmate, my dog, Jackson, may be a good fit. My cats - depending on their mood - like to lounge in the sun, pounce on the occasional toy, run up stairs, and hunt for treats I've hidden for them.

About: With years of pet-caring experience and repeat clients, I will love your pets as if they are my own. With my gentle giant, Sunny, we provide a safe, healthy, fun “home away from home” for your dog or cat. Due to his mellow, peaceful nature, Sunny is an especially apt playmate and partner for young puppies, first-time boarders, seniors, and cats. I’m also available to brush out and feed your horses while you’re out of town. I work remotely, and am fully available to care for your dog and/or cat. I can accommodate early risers (starting from 6am) to late bloomers (your pup can sleep in until 10am!). Every weekend, I take Sunny and any visiting pups to the Salisbury Community Dog Park in CT. I live in a spacious, clean three-story home in Amenia. Your pup or cat is welcome to the couch. I rarely watch TV, so the space is nice and quiet. We have a spacious (unfenced) backyard, so I’m happy to walk dogs out there, but never without a leash. For any first-time cat visitors who might be a bit timid, I have a quiet guest bedroom with a comfy bed — he or she can call it their private room as they acclimate to their new surroundings. 👑😊
“Ashley is a delight. She was very communicative and caring about our elderly dog with special needs. We only needed her to come and take him for a walk, but he is blind and deaf and also wears a diaper. She let us know when she got to our house and sent pictures afterwards. We felt very comfortable with her and will definitely be using her again.”

“We met Katie for a meet and greet and scheduled a dog walk together. I have 2 rescues who are both anxious and get nervous with new people. She has been very patient with them and asked lots of questions to better understand their behaviors. Katie has been great with our dogs and they are warming up to her. I will definitely be booking with Katie again.”

About: I have alot of experience with horse sized dogs and little obes alike, its important to me that they get the love they miss from their owners.

“Jessie is sooo patient with my energetic Pittie. They really love each other which makes me feel more comfortable. She is flexible and available, often at the last minute. Highly recommend.”

About: Animals have and always will be an integral part of my human nature. To make sure animals are provided with exercise, love and compassion are ways I express my values as an animal advocate. Keeping routine is my forte. I have most experience with dogs, all breeds and sizes! Walking is how I keep routine and promote a sense of well being for both my own animals and others 😌 Currently seeking full time pet care. Exercise takes time and I enjoy the physical aspect of a healthy lifestyle. Keeping a balance of short and or long walks. Depending on the breed I could make exercise minimal or lengthy. Currently I have a 15ft by 5ft outdoor kennel. Yard is well maintained with space and away from any roads. Private residence. I keep my small dog on a lead. Lead is also an option for other animals. My yard has plenty of space for playtime and fetching.

About: Choosing a sitter is about more than just a check-in; it’s about finding a calm, capable environment where your pet feels truly understood. My background in healthcare naturally informs how I care for animals—I tend to be an observant caregiver, keeping a watchful eye on comfort levels and the small details that matter for a pet’s well-being. As a working-from-home mom, my days are rooted in a reliable routine. This allows me to provide the consistent, low-stress supervision that is so helpful for all animals who need a little extra help and those who require a patient, intuitive touch to feel at home. I have experience caring for a wide range of needs and species—from the high energy of puppies to the quiet companionship of seniors, the unique needs of rescues, and even farm friends like chickens. Whether it's keeping a medication schedule on track, assisting with mobility challenges, or simply providing a quiet space for a nervous soul to decompress, I focus on creating a safe, gentle environment where every animal in my care can truly relax. If for some reason (vacations/getaways) we are unavailable it will be marked on the calendar. I do my best to confirm my calendar and availability daily. Our front and back yard is fenced in and we are set back from the road. There is plenty of room to run and play. As for feeding; All dogs and/or cats will be fed separately. This includes treats.

You will not be disappointed. She is our official dog sitter!”


“Christine is a life saver ! She took great care of our girl on such short notice. She sent pictures and was very quick to respond. Our pup was happy and tired when she got home. Thank you Christine !”

“Volha was fantastic! She would update us with photos everyday. Volha asked us about our dog’s( Lisa) routine to make sure she was most comfortable during her stay without too many changes. We will definitely ask Volha again to watch Lisa in the future!”

“Reka is an amazing sitter. Her attention to care is unmatched. She made Saint feel like part of her family. She’s very responsive and sends daily updates and photos. I would recommend her to anyone wanting their pup to receive the same level of care and love that an owner would give their own. She’s the best!”

“Saori was great. Our one year old lab was in heaven at their place. We received a puppy that was well cared for and had gotten a lot of socialization and exercise is a safe environment.”

“A great first experience boarding our dogs! We really appreciated the daily updates with photos of our pups with all the friends they made! Highly recommend Jeff and Bruce, they surely made our dogs feel safe and loved.”

“Janice took great care of our almost one year old golden retriever on a recent weekend stay. She was caring, thorough, and only takes on one pet at a time so she can provide one on one care and attention. Ellie loved getting to know Janice’s two dogs and cat and enjoying the beautiful fall weather from the relaxing farm atmosphere. Janice sent frequent updates and photos throughout Ellie’s stay, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our time away. I would definitely book her again!”

“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”

“Samantha and Michael were wonderful to our dog, Pete. They were super communicative and kind. They shared lots of pictures and I knew Pete was in the best hands. They took extra care to search him for ticks after they found one on him, which was really a next level thing for them to do. They clearly care about the dogs in their care and we highly recommend them.”

“Thalya did an amazing job taking care of our 3-year-old dog, Lucky Oreo. She was incredibly responsive, sending regular updates that kept us reassured and informed. Her loving care and attention made all the difference, and Lucky Oreo was clearly happy and well looked after. We highly recommend Thalya for her exceptional pet-sitting services!”

“Gab is just great with Harper. This is our second time boarding her at Gab’s. We are so fortunate to have found him and his wife Annie. Now we can go away and feel very relaxed. They even taught her to go up and down a full flight of stairs. Harper loves to socialize with Gab and the other dogs. Great place to leave your pet. Everyone is happy all around.”

“I cannot recommend Stephen enough. He took amazing care of our Buddy while we were away. He communicated and sent us videos and updates every day. He was cautious when introducing Buddy to the other dogs in his care and we had a meet and greet prior to the stay which I appreciate, he goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs in his care are compatible to keep all dogs safe. I look forward to using him in the future and I know Buddy will too. You can see that dogs in Stephens care are treated as his own and that is so comforting when leaving your dog in his care.”

“John was great with our senior Lab Rylee -- we have used him a few times to care for our dogs and he's always pleasant and easy going to arrange things with him. Rylee is always happy to go when we get there and looks well cared for when we get her back. Definitely recommend.”

“Absolute peace of mind through the entire experience. This was only the third time with a sitter and second boarding my Whiskey dog overnight; but never have I felt as content as when he was with Judy, her wonderful family & beautiful home. Was able to completely enjoy my vacation knowing he was cared for as one of her own. I really can’t thank her enough for what that contentment was worth to me. To top it off she’s so nice!! Had pushed the date forward a day at the last minute, she was totally understanding and went with the flow. Just thank you!!!! I know Whiskey dog misses his new friends already =^_^=”

“Cristian went above and beyond to make sure i felt 100% comfortable while i was boarding my pit mix Nala for 11 days for the first time. Nala even sadly got a pretty severe UTI during her stay and Cristian was so on top of it with photos, concern, and ended up even taking her to the vet for me and getting the care she needed. Even with a 6hr time change he managed to keep up with great communication and updates throughout the stay. I truly couldn’t be happier with my experience. He will definitely be my top choice in the future - no question. Thank you endlessly Cristian!”

“Brittany was reliable and timely in communicating. Our fur babies had a good time with her and they came home feeling good. She was polite to interact with. We will be using her again if we need a sitter!”

“Nothing more to say but “Amazing!!!” Erika is so communicative and she sends updates via photos! Love her and my dog, Tofu, also loved staying with her and Nugget! Thank you so much, Erika!”
