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
“As always Patty took such amazing care of our boy! Atlas loves spending time there and hanging with all the dogs! He is in such good hands, Patty is basically his second mom lol”

“Franny and her husband were absolutely wonderful!! They took extra great care of our pup! I highly recommend. It was soo convenient being right down the road from camp Pontiac, where we attended a wedding.”
“Peter was such a wonderful sitter. His updates were timely and detailed and I felt confident that Nutmeg was cared for, happy, and healthy during her stay. I will definitely ask Peter to sit again if I’m ever in the area again.”
“We boarded our two dogs with Diana this past week. Both of the dogs are rescues and bit skiddish around people, so we met for a brief meet & greet prior to the boarding date with her dog. The dogs got along great. I felt comfortable knowing that Diana has had a lot of experience caring for dogs - she provided good updates to throughout their stay and was very responsive. I would highly recommend and would use her services 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.
“I felt great leaving our dog with Jennifer. She is so kind and clearly loves animals. She already had a number of pet supplies and toys which made things even easier since I was traveling at the time I had booked for boarding. She sent updates and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely book with her again.”
“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:)”
“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!”

“Ellen did a fantastic job taking care of my two elderly cats that are on a very strict, and kind of confusing, medicine schedule. They get very lonely so I opted to have her house-sit while I was away for a week. She was inquisitive, responsive and sent pictures whenever needed! She kept the place very clean, and helped out with other house-sitting responsibilities. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Candice was wonderful!! She took great care of our cat Josephine while we were out of town. She even brought in packages off our front porch and waded through a foot of snow in our unplowed driveway. Can’t recommend her enough and we will definitely use her again!! 🐱🐱🐱🐱”
“Nicole is a god send. Amazing. Reliable. Caring. Sweet. Punctual. Fantastic. Our cats love her. One is very timid so that is no small feat. Our dog - who has extreme separation anxiety- also loves her. She is worth every penny and then some!”

About: Hello! I've been an animal lover my entire life. My dog, Zeke and I had a companion kind of relationship, built on mutual respect and happiness; it's something I wouldn't have traded for the world. He sadly passed away in October 2025 after 12 years together, so it would be an understatement to say I'm more than happy to pour extra love to your pup. Times are tough; starting a new 'negotiations and bartering' acceptance. Reach out, the worst I can say is no! Partial payment in veggies, meat, mechanic work...etc. Community care✨ ___________________________________________________________________________ This is a new offering as of August 2024. I have discovered that adventures are my ideal experiences and would like to advertise as such! Mountain hikes, kayak paddles (>15 pounds) are my favorites, but I am open to other ideas/training requests! Paddleboarding, swimming lessons...the possibilities are endless. One hour minimum is preferred; gas and travel time to the adventure site are included. I have many mountains, lakes and trails on my list, so I do not see it as fair to charge you for that time! You will only be charged for adventure time. Depending on your pup(s) comfortability in the car, we may travel up to 45 minutes. You and I will decide together on location details, and this app will track where your pup(s) and I are at all times. Wilderness First Aid trained, canine safety versed, ample water provided, and pups will always be kept safely on the leash. Your pup will return home satisfied and tired! ____________________________________________________________________________ For a NORMAL NEIGHBORHOOD WALK, please book a drop-in visit and message to remind me that you would like a walk. Availability for walks and drop-ins will change after Labor Day. Unavailable most weekdays 8-3:30, I am a caretaker by nature, and have been a teacher for the past 4years, a live in nanny before that and most recently a grade school teacher. I'm going back to school to get my licensure. Honestly, care taking and fresh air gives me clarity of mind, and the chance to peel away from the screen helps process all the new information! I am trying to practice running again too, if your canine would like to train with me. Familiar with many local trails and parks. All weather is good weather! Experience with dogs with seizures and giving various medications. Feline friend as well. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends ! I work at a school, but often have days and weeks off. Feel free to request and negotiate for what you need. Finding a good fit is paramount. I offer boarding very rarely. When I am in your home, I try to leave it better than I found it. I have spent a fair amount of time farming and gardening, so plants will be well cared for if asked.
“Abigail was the perfect cat sitter. I was so nervous leaving my cats for so long but it turns out, I didn't have to worry at all. She came for a meet and greet, learned all their names, and followed every instruction during the entire two week period. I needed twice a day drop ins for one hour each. She stayed for the entire hour, played with the cats, fed them, pet them, cleaned food bowls, replaced water bowls and cleaned their litter. She took pictures of them every time and by the end, my cats were so comfortable with her. I would hundred percent recommend her if you want a sweet, caring sitter who you can rely on.”
About: I have had cats my entire life and have come to the conclusion that they are my favorite animal. I have been told many times that I’m going to end up becoming “the crazy cat lady”, if that says anything! I know how nerve-racking it can be to have to leave your fur baby back home while you are away. I can assure you that they will be getting plenty of love and will be in great hands.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Spencertown
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.
“Irene was an excellent sitter for our boy Aslan. He got along great with her dog, and she sent many photos of how well the two puppies got along!

“With both me and my boyfriend working in healthcare and having crazy schedules, we decided to get a puppy. Then our work schedules got flipped and we were panicking on what to do with little man while we both had to work Christmas Eve and day and 12hr shifts. Then came a Christmas miracle, Kaitlyn and her amazing family watched over little Apollo. I was so nervous as this was my first time using Rover and I was unsure about the legitimacy, but Kaitlyn had great reviews and went above and beyond to make Apollo feel welcomed in her home and. She stuck to his feeding and training plan, tuckered him out with tons of play and made sure to update me with adorable pictures throughout the day! If you have a chance to book with her I would say absolutely do it, I would trust her with a human child!!”

I am happy to go into more detail about my living habits and daily schedule. My dog doesn’t “get into” anything he shouldn’t— including “stealing” his own food and treats, but through experience with my own puppies and client dogs I am well versed in taking extensive precautions to ensure the safety of animals in my home. I will not allow client dogs off leash but I have a 50 foot leash that is excellent for hiking with dogs. I am very observant of potential health issues/injuries. I am happy to expand upon the safety measures I take.
