We will definitely be using Brittany again in the future.”

Thank you for taking such great care of our girl!”

About: I've been caring for dogs since middle school, including over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, Aubrey. I've also had family, friends, and neighbors rely on me to walk, feed, groom, and care for their pets. Over the years, I've gained experience with dogs of many sizes, breeds, and personalities, including Golden Retrievers, mixed breeds, Yorkshire Terriers, hounds, Chihuahuas, and Corgis. I especially enjoy caring for senior pets and making sure they receive the patience, attention, and affection they deserve. I like spending quality time with them, grooming them, observing their behavior and how they're doing, and making sure they're comfortable and cared for. I've also expanded my experience through volunteer work with Rockland Orange Furrever Homes and the Hudson Valley SPCA, where I've worked with shelter animals and gained additional experience observing animal behavior and providing hands-on care. Whether your pet needs a good walk, a meal, some grooming, companionship, or simply someone who will give them plenty of love and attention, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I enjoy making time for walks, play, grooming, companionship, and simply getting to know each pet's personality and routine. I'm able to be flexible with my availability and want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and loved. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure doors, gates, and other exits are secure, provide fresh water and meals according to the owner's instructions, and give pets plenty of attention and exercise. I also pay close attention to their behavior and overall condition so I can recognize anything unusual and communicate concerns to their owner. During walks, I use safe handling practices and stay aware of the pet's surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away.

“Emily was absolutely fantastic!! She was so helpful, sweet, and spent lots of time cuddling and playing with my cat :) She went above and beyond and even cleaned up the litter my cat loves to kick all over the ground. Couldn’t recommend more!”


“Maritza was an amazing sitter! She sent photos and updates every time she took care of our cats, Buddha and Gagoots. You can tell by the photos that they really liked her. She played with them and really cared for them from a Wednesday through Sunday! We will definitely use her again! Highly recommend her.”

“Theresa and Michael are wonderful cat sitters, true pet lovers who took care of Mr Soots for me in every way possible. From cuddles and love to pictures of Soots playing and being his cheeky self, I could see that my cat felt so at home and comfortable with Theresa and Michael right from day one. I would recommend their cat sitting services to anyone. Fantastic people and wonderful hosts for pets.”


About: I have been surrounded and taken care of cats my whole life with friends and family. I currently live with foster cats with many types of cat personalities cycling in and out. I love cats and their sweet and sassy nature!

About: I've been called a cat whisperer many times in my life. I've live with and took care of all ages of cats, from kittens to senior cats. I am able to adjust my speed to their personalities. I specifically enjoy getting to love on each individual cat for them.
About: Animals are basically part of my DNA. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was a child, and I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals. I’ve also been riding and caring for horses my entire life, which means I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and understanding animal behavior. I have hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to seniors who need a calmer pace and extra TLC. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so pets are never left alone and are part of my daily routine. My home sits on 3 acres of private property surrounded by a state park, which means lots of space for play and long walks or hikes. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets by treating them like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of supervised exercise, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that means extra activity for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency with puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Quick to respond to our request and any additional outreach!”

“Richard and Karen watched my dog Babs for 2 days while my partner and I were both at work. It was fantastic! They are such loving caretakers and each day Babs was well fed, played out and sleepy when she came back to me! Will definitely use them in the future whenever we need someone to watch Babs!”

About: Hi! I’m a passionate dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience fostering and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. If it were up to me, every dog looking for a loving home would have a place in mine. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. Over the years I’ve had the privilege of looking after countless dogs, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their families are away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust, learn their routines, and make them feel right at home. I’m experienced with basic training and positive reinforcement using treats, helping dogs build good habits while making learning fun. Whether it’s reinforcing routines, group feeding, administering lots of love and attention, or simply making sure they feel comfortable, I always put each dog’s needs first. I’m very active, so your pup can expect plenty of walks, playtime, trips to the park, backyard fun (including supervised pool time if appropriate), and, of course, lots of cuddles and affection at the end of the day. I treat every pet like they’re my own because I truly believe they’re family. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and receiving the same care and attention they would at home. Whether you’re away for a weekend, a business trip, or need regular care, I’m here to provide a reliable, loving, and fun environment for your pup. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I have years of experience fostering and caring for dogs, my days already revolve around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, training, and giving each dog the love and attention they deserve. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks and trips to the park are something I genuinely look forward to. I also make time for cuddles, enrichment activities, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I truly enjoy every day of the week. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and energy level so they get the care that’s best for them. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages, so they can relax knowing their furry family member is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

We would love to have your Fur baby/babies over for a playdate or a sleepover. They will receive love and care just as if they were at their "Grammy's" house.

Our home is "Pooch-Proof" inside and out. I have a relationship with the rescue agencies who have approve my home for doggie care.

“Chloe is the best! She took care of my 10 month old puppy, Hazel, while I was at work for the day & Hazel had the best time! She loved running around with Chloe’s two sweet puppies who are so friendly and playful! Chloe sent me several updates, pictures and videos throughout the day. I could tell she made a special effort to help Hazel feel comfortable in her new environment for the day. Highly recommended, will be calling Chloe again for doggy daycare soon!”
About: If you enjoy working with someone, you must work with them. Again, and again and again that is how I feel when I’m around my Fur friends! I work full-time for the Department of Education, but I am available on the weekends and the entire summer to care for your Fur friend. I live in a house with a backyard and enough room for your furry friend to run and play. I will provide great services to ensure they are always happy and well-cared for
“Maryline is amazing! It was my first time leaving my puppy all day, and she made it way easier than i thought. She is so sweet and caring and my pup felt comfortable right away. She sent so many pictures that made me feel as ease and her you could tell my puppy loved her sons, and they kept him playing and busy which tuckered him out. Highly recommend her for any of your fur babies needs. I know that she is now my #1 go to person for my little Theo!”

“What can I say? Tara responded quickly and she asked very pertinent questions before we met and that alerted me to how careful she would be about caring for my puppy. He was nervous going in but Tara quickly reassured him and not an hour later she sent me photos that erased my worry. He enjoyed his time there and she had many insights into him when I picked him up. I will use Tara again and recommend her to anyone looking for care in the Newburgh area. She knows a bunch about breeds and how they act and that is comforting.”

“Daniela was really wonderful, attentive and patient and flexible. Goguma is still in his puppy phase and got to play with her dog. She checked in several times. I felt like Goguma was in great hands and look forward to future dates with Daniela.”


About: What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to each dog like they’re part of my own family. I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and I truly see them as little babies who deserve the world. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I have two dogs of my own, so my day already revolves around walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love. In my home, your dog will be treated like one of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and cozy space where they can relax and feel safe. Whether they love playtime, snuggles, or just a quiet spot to nap, I adjust to their needs and routine. I stick to their usual feeding and potty schedule, offer daily walks, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention throughout the day.

“I am so grateful to have found such a reliable dog walker in Amanda! She is kind and caring and has been a life saver! Knowing that my special needs senior has someone giving him that extra care during the day while I'm at work has been such a relief. Amanda is awesome - we couldn't be happier!

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats, but most of my family had dogs, so I have always been around them. This love for animals also got me into the veterinary field, which I have 6 years experience in. I have years of experience walking, handling, and playing with dogs and now have the experience to give oral medications or injections if needed. I currently don’t have any dogs, but I do have 2 cats. During my day I always make sure I wake up early enough to feed them and clean the litter box. After coming home from work, I feed them dinner and spend some time brushing and playing with them. I then clean the litter box before going to bed and repeat the next day. In my home, I have installed screen doors on the entry doors to prevent my cats from escaping but so they also can see the outside activity. I have socket covers to prevent them from playing in it and make sure to cover all wires so they don’t think they are toys.
About: I am a true animal lover at heart! I've taken care of friends and family pets my entire life. I became a dog walker part-time on the side of my full-time job back in 2017 in Southern California where I once walked 7 dogs at once! I have cared for high energy puppies all the way to older dogs with medical needs. I love all personalities and age ranges. I am a hybrid worker which allows me a flexible schedule that I can adapt to pet care routines. I love to snuggle up on the couch and look forward to the pet breaks in the day to get outside to play and walk. I am happy to work together and adapt to your pet care needs! I have had extended stays, some as long months at a time at clients' homes to care for their homes, plants, cats, and dogs. I understand the trust needed with your home and animals and hope to bring you peace of mind with my stay and lots of pet photos!
“I was very happy the care and exercise Leah provided to our dog, Walter. She was very communicative on the days when she walked him and kept me regularly updated by sharing photos and videos of their walks (and it always looked like Walter was having a great time). I would highly recommend Leah, and I hope she can spend more time with Walter in the future!”

About: Thank you for taking the time to consider me for your pet needs! I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. I am an absolute animal lover! I currently have two dogs (2 sweet black labs). I enjoy helping dogs stay active through walks, runs, and playtime. Does your furry one like to snuggle? Because that is welcomed too! I have experience caring for dogs from 8 weeks to senior. I also have basic experience with administering oral medications. With me, you can trust that your furry family member is getting excellent compassionate care while you’re away! Please rest assured that your pet will be taken care of. I take pride in being detail-oriented, reliable, and compassionate. Please let me know if I can answer any questions! I look forward to meeting your pet soon! I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am available from early morning until late evening most days. My availability is continually updated to better serve you and your pet(s). I would love to care for your pets in the comfort of their home. I am willing and able to play with them in your yard, walk your neighborhood, etc.
“This was our first time using Rover in several years and since moving back to NYC from another state. We engaged Doris to stop by our apartment to walk our two large dogs in the middle of a weekday when we both had to be out of town and it sounds like everything went great. One of our dogs, Molly, can be very shy and skittish, so we left Doris detailed instructions about how to deal with her. Doris gave us specific feedback about how Molly did with her (quite well, as it turned out), which made us feel more comfortable about the next time we will need to employ someone to help with the dogs.”
“Michael bonded with Maeve immediately, and shared the most adorable photos of her on their outings! I appreciate the updates very much. He's extremely reliable and communicative. Most importantly, I know Maeve is in excellent hands!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, I have owned and cared for multiple breeds of dogs and cats, big and small, and been a pet sitter for friends and family on and off for the last 10 years. As a result of my experience as a pet parent and sitter I am very comfortable with most breeds. I also have limited experience training full grown dogs as well as puppies. I am available for walks, check-ins, or pet sitting every day. I am also available for boarding on a case by case basis. My work schedule allows me to be present for most of the day, so I can remain attentive and take plenty of walk and play breaks. During the times that I am gone I am able to crate them if that is your preference or they can have free access to the main part of the house and I will check in on them regularly through the doggie cams. I am able to dog sit in your home as well as in my own home, which has a large amount of indoor space that they can roam around in, as well as a partially fenced back yard that they can play in on a long leash with my supervision. I have plenty of time for walks and play breaks during the day. And during the few hours a day that I am out of the house, they can be crated, or they can roam around the main part of the house. I check in on them every half hour through the doggy cams set up in the house. I am comfortable walking, feeding, and if necessary, providing medication on the schedule and in the manner that you prefer.
About: Besides having raised both cats and dogs all my life, I also have several years experience with volunteering at animals shelters. I can provide leash manners, socialization and provide medical care. At the moment, my availability is very flexible. I can provide service at any day and time. I’m local and can travel for clients. In addition, I’m very responsive. I like to make all animals feel at home by providing a relaxed environment. I have a fenced in yard. All animals should be loved and approached with patience.

I couldn’t have asked for a better person to trust to watch my best friend.”

“Barbara was fantastic with Nola on her two week stay! Barbara kept us updated and sent videos of Nola living her best life, playing, running, hiking and falling asleep exhausted afterwards. Barbara helped Nola by teaching her to socialize with other dogs appropriately which she definitely needed. Nola was treated like she was part of the family. I highly recommend Barbara to provide a loving home to your dog.”

“Dew is the best of the best! From our first meet & greet to everything in between, Dew was responsive, flexible, and loved our pup as if he was her own. Our Bucky is quite the energetic pup and she went above and beyond to assure he was taken care of in just the right way. We can’t thank her more and will be booking with her again soon.”

“I chose pet sitter Michael W in New City NY to care for my cat this past weekend. He and his family provided an extraordinarily safe, comfortable, clean, calm, and accommodating setting within their luxurious spotless residence and property nestled within a quiet and exclusive neighborhood far from heavy traffic and any other threatening exposures. New City is well known for low crime and safety thanks to it's most reliable law enforcement and emergency services. My opinion is that I found the perfect match for any cat or dog and I will choose Michaei for my future pet boarding needs hands down.”
