“I was very comfortable leaving my dog with Deanne! My girl has a lot of energy and loves attention, and I was relieved to hear that this wasn't bothersome at all. I got routine updates throughout the week, and Deanne was very responsive to my messages. 10/10 would hire again.”

“Nicole was fantastic. This was the first time I ever left my dog with anyone other than family. She consistently provided updates and pictures. My dog was well cared for.”


“Mr. Bob took such amazing care of our dog, Berkeley! He even taught him how to sit. We trust Mr. Bob completely and will definitely leave Berkeley in his care again!”

“George loved his time at Sarah & Aaron’s! They are the sweetest family! George was so happy to stay with them, and would 100% love to go visit again! He was extremely well taken care of! We got pictures and updates the entire time. Would recommend to everyone!!!!! They’re the best! ❤️”

“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.”

“Brigid was a great match for my older dog, thorough in asking about his needs and care, and communicated well through out the entire time she had him. Would book again for sure if we need care!”

“Daisy’s stay with Jane was the best! Daisy was happy and at ease with Jane which is all we could ask for — and we got incredible photos the whole stay so we could see how she was doing and not miss her too much. We will absolutely be using Jane for all future dog sitting needs and highly recommend her to anyone else!!”

“Lauren is great with our dogs. They have very different personalities and she's great with both. In addition, when our plans were crazy because of the snow storm and we weren't sure when we'd get home, she was super flexible.”

“Garrett & Deanne were really great! Ruby seemed to have a great time with them. They kept me updated on how she was doing (especially with the fireworks over July 4th). I'll definitely be having them watch my girl in the future!”

“I was looking for someone special to look after my 15 year old Shih Tzu, Opal. Someone who would understand her fussy eating habits, could give her eye drops, be patient with her inability to see well, and go outside when she needs to. And, a quiet place for Opal just to rest her weary bones. I found that in Cipriana. I hope in the future, she can care for little Opal again. Opal even shared a bed with Cipriana's older dog!”

“I had an urgent situation and needed a pet sitter. Lori was so kind to agree to help. My dogs were so happy when I picked them. She took great care of them. I can’t wait to use her again.”

“This is Tyson's second time staying with Amanda. She is really good with him. She has a fenced in yard and often has multiple dogs to keep company with including her husky. Her dad even came by to see Tyson. When traveling it's such a blessing to have good people to watch your pet so you don't have to worry. I feel like he's having a sleepover at a friend's house. Thank you Amanda!”


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.

“Alyson was wonderful! She was very patient with my dogs, even when they got nervous and peed on her floor. They quickly warmed up to her and her dog, and from the photos she sent, it was obvious they were having a great time. I will definitely rebook with Alyson.”

“Jessica cared for my doggie Oliver while I was away for 3 weeks - such a long time! She took him on tons of walks and sent me lots of pictures of their outings. I knew he was in good hands and very happy. I hope Jessica is available to look after Oliver the next time I have to go out of town.”
“This was our puppy's first night away and Nicole was amazing! She took such great care of our 5lb Pomeranian puppy. I received updates regularly. She has plenty of fenced in outside space and even a smaller yard for smaller dogs. Her attention to detail put my mind at ease! Highly recommend.”


“We could not be more pleased with our experience using Marisa as a dog sitter! She was friendly and professional and clearly loves taking care of dogs. Her response time is always quick and she sent us daily pictures during Bear Bear's 5 night stay. Simply by seeing the pics we could tell that Bear was in good hands! We will be using Marisa again and again since we travel a lot. We highly recommend Marisa V!”
“Darcy was fantastic with my dog, Blaze! Her own dog is so sweet and Blaze had a wonderful time. I got updates and pictures throughout his stay. We will definitely be using Darcy as a sitter again!”

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
About: I'll provide constant supervision of your pet. I enjoy interacting with animals. Although I am not a professional dog handler I have had a dog in the house for the past 12 years. I will do my best to provide competent care for your pet. I am currently retired from the Columbia County jail, after completing 23 years. I am a Navy veteran. My wife and I have twin boys who are all grown up and out of the house. As a result of this I have become a little bored. I would appreciate your consideration when deciding on who to entrust the care of your pet while you are away. You will be able to be rest assured that they are being taken care of. I am usually available all the time except for the occasional vacation I might go on. Weekends are no problem either. I am pretty much available year round. I like to hang out with my dog all day. Adding more animals to the mix is no problem. I like taking walks with them and I also have a fenced yard.
“My dog had a great time on a last minute daycare visit with Logan, and was happy and tired coming home. Logan was extremely flexible and friendly and had a good setup for dogs to free roam in and out of the house into a fenced backyard. Will absolutely book again!”

“After our move, my wife and I needed to find a new sitter for our pup. Jessica was very prompt with communications and had a good rapport with Bagel immediately right from the start - put at ease in leaving our pup in her care. Thanks!”
“Patrick and Sara were awesome. Their two dogs are very sweet and got along well (0playong and napping) well with our pup.. they are very thoughtful of any other dog personalities and how they mix with ours. Patrick sent pictures and updates. Cooper came back happy and tired.”

“This was my first time using Rover and, remarkably, my first time leaving my dog Maddy with someone in their house, and not my own. Lori was wonderful! She answered all my questions before the day, and answered so promptly too. Maddy and Lori's dog Rees were very compatible, even though Rees is much bigger than Maddy. When I came to pick up my dog, Lori said Maddy missed me and was a bit subdued, but that's to be expected for the first time. Maddy was perfectly fine, and happy to see me when I came to pick her up. I will be booking with Lori and Rees again. Practice makes perfect!”

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.
“Elishamaria was wonderful. She was very friendly, communicative and professional. She made our dog Butters feel very comfortable and happy. We were able to enjoy a little time to ourselves in Hudson. We would definitely book her again the next time we’re in town!”

About: I worked as a veterinary reception and received knowledge from our vets on dog/ cat behavior training and administering injections. I have kennel experience and training with special needs in dogs and cats. I’m open and flexible with my schedule whether it’s morning or night. Ready to take care of your magnificent pup or kitty in a safe environment. My cozy apartment is a safe and welcoming space for your pet to relax and play. I also have a super-friendly dog who absolutely loves meeting new friends. For pups or cats that like some quiet time, I'm happy to provide a cozy crate or room area where they can feel secure.

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 four 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 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 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: 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! I work over at a cafe part time in Hudson! My schedule is flexible:) I couldn’t be present at all times of the day though. I have an apartment with a yard. Your animal could stay over or I can house sit if that’s easier. I have many references off this app
About: If your dog is a rescue who's still figuring out the world, or just a creature of habit who thrives on routine — that's exactly who I do this for. I work from home, so I'm able to follow their schedule: same walks, same feeding times, same special treats. The only thing different about your dog's week is which human is holding the leash (and cuddling on the couch). Send me a message to set up a meet-and-greet — I'd love to hear all about your pet. Working from home means your dog has company during the day, not just a check-in at mealtimes. I build my schedule around the pets I'm caring for, so your dog's feeding times, walks, and favorite spots on the couch all stay as consistent as possible. The goal is for your dog to feel like not much has changed. When we're outside, your dog has my full attention. I skip dog parks to avoid the risks of unpredictable dogs, illness, or overstimulation. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, so your dog always gets my undivided focus. During the warmer months, I stay on top of tick checks and heat management to keep your dog safe and comfortable. I'm comfortable administering oral medications and I closely monitor food intake and potty patterns so I can flag anything unusual.

About: Hi my name is Jessica and I live with my partner Patrick and our two dogs Chickie and Gracie. I have always had pets growing up and have cared for my own dogs for the past 16 years. I have experience with taking care of puppies, elderly and reactive dogs. Currently, I'm freelancing, so I'm mostly home with a flexible schedule. I would love to care for your dog or cat while you’re away!
“We cannot say enough positive things about Roman! He is incredibly kind and responsive- We needed help with our senior yellow lab and had some unique needs for our pup and family while we were in the hospital with a newborn - Roman went above and beyond with kindness and flexibility to help our family in a crazy time, and was a true life saver! His love of animals is clear - we would recommend him to anyone and will absolutely ask for his help next time we need it.”

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.

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 was looking for someone special to look after my 15 year old Shih Tzu, Opal. Someone who would understand her fussy eating habits, could give her eye drops, be patient with her inability to see well, and go outside when she needs to. And, a quiet place for Opal just to rest her weary bones. I found that in Cipriana. I hope in the future, she can care for little Opal again. Opal even shared a bed with Cipriana's older dog!”

“I had an urgent situation and needed a pet sitter. Lori was so kind to agree to help. My dogs were so happy when I picked them. She took great care of them. I can’t wait to use her again.”

“This is Tyson's second time staying with Amanda. She is really good with him. She has a fenced in yard and often has multiple dogs to keep company with including her husky. Her dad even came by to see Tyson. When traveling it's such a blessing to have good people to watch your pet so you don't have to worry. I feel like he's having a sleepover at a friend's house. Thank you Amanda!”


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.

“Alyson was wonderful! She was very patient with my dogs, even when they got nervous and peed on her floor. They quickly warmed up to her and her dog, and from the photos she sent, it was obvious they were having a great time. I will definitely rebook with Alyson.”

“Jessica cared for my doggie Oliver while I was away for 3 weeks - such a long time! She took him on tons of walks and sent me lots of pictures of their outings. I knew he was in good hands and very happy. I hope Jessica is available to look after Oliver the next time I have to go out of town.”
“This was our puppy's first night away and Nicole was amazing! She took such great care of our 5lb Pomeranian puppy. I received updates regularly. She has plenty of fenced in outside space and even a smaller yard for smaller dogs. Her attention to detail put my mind at ease! Highly recommend.”

“Darcy was fantastic with my dog, Blaze! Her own dog is so sweet and Blaze had a wonderful time. I got updates and pictures throughout his stay. We will definitely be using Darcy as a sitter again!”

“Wow, we are so grateful we found Taylor to help watch Tilly during our wedding weekend! It was a fairly last minute request and Taylor was super responsive and immediately on it. As soon as we dropped Tilly off, we knew she was in the best hands for the weekend and Tilly took to her right away. Taylor even brought Tilly to our venue/ceremony for some photos and to be part of our wedding— and it was truly a highlight of our wedding day. Taylor sent us photos throughout and was very responsive. Highly recommend Taylor for any of your pets needs and we truly cannot thank her enough!”

“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!”

“Christopher and his wife did a wonderful job watching my Australian Shepherd. I appreciate the daily updates with pictures. She was well loved and cared for. Would book again.”
