“Margaret and her children took such loving care of Windy, I can’t thank them enough! Margaret kept me updated on how Windy was doing which I very much appreciated especially since I had never her left her like this before. I would highly recommend Margaret as a very experienced and loving dog caregiver.”

“Pamela did a wonderful job caring for Ella for an extended stay with surprise medical care for Ella thrown into the mix last minute! I really felt like she cared for Ella as if she was her own pet.

“Dekoda was great with Muffin! She followed all of the instructions perfectly and sent multiple daily photos. She was very reliable and responded right away when I texted her. I’m so grateful she was willing to take care of my rabbit. I definitely recommend, and I would gladly have her take care of Muffin again.”


“Anna was a wonderful pet sitter! She was very kind, caring, and attentive to my two cats and two guinea pigs, and I could tell she really took the time to make sure they were well taken care of. She also spent plenty of time playing with my cats, which I really appreciated. Anna was very responsive whenever we needed to text her about something, and overall she made the whole experience feel easy and reassuring. I would definitely rebook with her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. From basic training of puppies to elder care, hospice care and administering medication. I’m patient, kind and enjoy all energy levels. Whether they are movie & couch potato pups, prefer swimming at the river or playing ball in the meadow, I’m always excited to give them the best time they can have. I work a rotational schedule allowing me to have blocks of 3 weeks off at a time. During that time I am fully available for any pet care needs. have over 3 acres of woods & meadows for frolicking that back up to more wooded areas, I’m a short drive from two beautiful river walks or swimming (seasonal). I do have crates available if needed. I have a good selection of pet basic first aid and hygiene supplies.

About: Hi I’ve had cats my whole life. I volunteer at cat sanctuary and I provide food free of charge to people who need it. If you left your cat with me I would treat him/her like my own. I have spare bedroom they can sleep on comfy bed if they wish. Lots of temptations too lol
About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. From fostering puppies and kittens to volunteering at animals shelters and local farms, I have experience in just about every area you can imagine. I am here to help you in any way I can! Besides school and a part time job, pet care takes up the biggest part of my routine. Working around your schedule is my biggest priority! Living with 3 dogs and 4 cats, safety, trust, and environment are what I care about most. I am able to do overnights, walking, regular pet sitting, and much more. Reach out with any questions!

“Krystal provided the perfect environment for Pooh. He got great care. At 13, blind and with diabetes, he still finds ways to get in trouble. He was safe. His medical needs were addressed and he was able to play safely with other pets.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Clare
About: I love being around animals and spending time with them. I find myself walking in the outdoors a lot which I would love to do with dogs! I currently work as a full time RN 3 days a week. This allows for a pretty flexible schedule to give more time to my animals, and yours! I have one dog of my own that does not always play well with others. It is preferred for me to watch animals not in my own home for the dogs safety.
“Margaret has been lovely! She has taken my pup for walks while i’m working long shifts. She is patient with my crazy high energy pup! She gives me updates on how the walks went and is very responsive! I can tell she is passionate about animals!”

About: I have cared for cats and dogs since I was young! I also can care for mice, bunnies, rats, and other animals, just message me! I know each personality is different, and I can proudly say I have made friends with animals that love humans as well as those who definitely don’t. Animals with special needs are also not a problem for me! I’ve cared for multiple cats and dogs with special needs including diabetes, manual bladder expressions, and mobility/paralysis issues. I’m currently at college (Vet Tech Student) and am looking for jobs that allow me to keep working around animals during this time while also giving enough free time to succeed in classes! I follow instructions given by the owner and often send pictures as updates of how the babies are doing! I can crate, walk, feed, water, play with, and bathe animals (if needed). I also can trim nails if asked! I can send pictures after as proof I didn’t quick them to ensure safety and trust between both you and I, as well as your pet and I!
About: Bachelor of Science in Veterinary Technology. Five years of recent pet sitting in the Plattsburgh, NY area. Solid references for that era. I never had children. Pets are my babies. Currently, I am working to help out friends with their farm. I am only beginning Rover now and am very flexible. Pet sitting is more of enjoyment than corporate employment. I can have a cat or a small dog stay with me in my apartment if that is something the owners are interested in. It's an apartment complex with really nice, dog-friendly grounds.
About: Hello! Animals have been my passion since I was a little girl. I have worked at a dog daycare for 3 years and now am currently working as a Tech at a Veterinary Clinic now going on for 6 years! I am so lucky to be surrounded by animals everyday and always learning new things about each and every animal. I would love to pet sit your furry friend and hopefully become a new best friend for them too! If you are military, I have base access as well! I am available weekdays and weekends.I would also be available to watch your pet at your home if needed ! I would love to chat about any days you may need and we can work out something :) I am available to help out with feeding, walking, giving medications and or just hanging out with your fur baby. I am open to talking about any other things you may need !
