I reached out to Abigail super last minute as I had to take a last minute trip and she didn’t hesitate to help. She walked Nala three days straight, followed all instructions, and kept me updated the whole time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Nala was in such caring hands while I was away in Florida. I will absolutely book again!!

Thank you for taking the time to read🥰 I am a stay at home mom and I am available from 7am-3pm on weekdays and on weekends my availability may be more open , it just depends on what I might have going on! I will not be taking care of animals in my home due to be having a 1 year old child unless you are okay with them being in a crate. I would not want anything to happen to my baby or your fur baby!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats! Very familiar with both big and small breeds. We have a 6 year old yellow lab, Bodhi, who is extremely friendly and obedient. We could easily give lots of love and attention to some more animals!! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to two kids. We’re home a lot, always out in our backyard playing. My weekly routine revolves around them and their school schedules, but for the most part I am at home. I have a large fenced in backyard in a safe neighborhood. We have motion sensor lights and camera in both the front and backyard. We also have baby gates up all around the house with garbages and cabinets all baby proofed as well! Super safe environment, nothing unsafe they can get into. We can crate or just separate and give them their own space with baby gates. We also have a nice cool finished basement that’s set up like a spare bedroom with king size bed and tv if that’s more their style :)

Cali stayed with Paul this time last year and was an ale to help me out again with a couple daily walks while she was being watched by my mom. Always great with communication and scheduling. And Cali definitely enjoys her time with him.

About: Growing up, I've had a couple of dogs. Our first was a mix (part husky, terrier, etc.) named O'Doolie who lived to be 16! I was young when we had her, so I don't remember her puppy years. Our other dog we had since I was in elementary school up to my early 20s was Dixie Lee. She was a Miniature Schnauzer and was the sweetest dog ever! I enjoyed bathing her, brushing her teeth, and giving her so much love and attention. My husband and I work together as landscape designers! During the winter months, our schedule is very slow. This provides us more time to engage ourselves in other fun and creative endeavors! Currently, I have an unfenced backyard. I live with my husband in a small home. In the future, we’d love to put in a fence— we have just found we haven’t needed to just yet!

About: I have been passionate about caring for animals since childhood, with a lifelong commitment to helping pets and stray animals thrive in safe, loving environments. My goal is to ensure the health, happiness, and safety of every animal I encounter, treating them with the same love and care as if they were my own. With years of personal experience, including caring for a senior dog who lived a full 15 years and now rests peacefully, as well as raising my adventurous 4-year-old cat and my energetic 2-year-old dog, I bring dedication and compassion to animal care. Whether providing hands-on assistance or finding homes for animals in need, I am always ready to go above and beyond to keep them out of harm’s way and surrounded by love. Animal care has always been a big part of my life. I grew up around animals, which eventually led me to work in a veterinary clinic where I gained hands-on experience with pet health, behavior, and daily care. I’m no longer employed at the clinic, but the knowledge and skills I gained there still guide the way I care for every pet I work with. My schedule is now fully open, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Whether your companion needs walks, playtime, medication support, or simply a reliable and comforting presence, I’m committed to providing exceptional care. I treat every animal like my own and make sure you feel confident while you’re away by offering dependable communication and genuine love for your pet. If your pet has specific routines, quirks, or needs, I’m happy to accommodate. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 I have a medium sized outdoor fenced in area that also is connected to an indoor area to get out of the heat. I also have a dog tie out that goes from the house down our hill.

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including my own pup. I’m patient, loving, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and routine. From walks and playtime to cuddles and calm supervision, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time to spare for your pets 💕 I am looking for full time so my availability is scheduled to change. I treat every pet like family and always put their safety and comfort first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and relaxed in my care. I can follow any instructions you provide including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and cuddle time. My goal is to create a stress free, positive experience for your pet while keeping you updated every step of the way.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need a slower pace and extra attention. I take a calm, reliable approach and focus on each dog’s individual routine, safety, and comfort. What sets me apart is my peaceful, low-stress home in a quiet country setting in the town of Bleecker inside of the Adirondack Park, where dogs receive one-on-one attention, consistent care, and plenty of space to relax. Your dog will be treated like family and cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m always home and structure my days around consistent feeding times, walks, play, and downtime, so dogs always have attention and companionship. Living in a quiet country setting allows for a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of space to relax and enjoy fresh air. I keep a predictable routine while adjusting to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s daily walks, enrichment, or quiet companionship, caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I live in a quiet country home with plenty of outdoor space. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs are always supervised and taken outside on a leash so they can safely explore and enjoy the fresh air. Safety is always my top priority. Please let me know if your pup is off-leashed trained, so I may work with them after they are comfortable on the property. Dogs in my care will also have the companionship of my friendly corgi, Ginger, who is well-socialized and enjoys being around other dogs. The newest addition to my household is Nori, a corgi puppy. She currently has a lot of energy and is in training, doing very well. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs, and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Your dogs and my dogs are allowed on the couch and the bed. We love to snuggle up!

About: From the excited, to the reserved, to the elderly, I have a depth of experience to care for your animal kin. I've helped care for senior dogs when they struggled to walk down stairs, when food requirements changed on a whim, when the house has to be changed to reduce trips on tiles, and even when they can start wandering past bed time. It was not easy to care for them as puppies and it's not easy when they are elderly. But if one loves enough when they are babies, then they love enough to do the same as they are seniors. I'm between jobs and actively looking, so I have plenty of time to care for all your animal family members beyond a stop to fill bowls and empty boxes and the like. It all comes down to the first meeting. Not the first job. I want to know what you, your pets, and your house is like so I can do my very best to be attentive and observent in caring for them. This includes setting up a person emergency plan for common emergency care should it arise. Preparedness beats panic after all!

She is such a beautiful soul, has great communication, accommodating and is just so sweet. Will be booking her again and would highly recommend! She took great care of my two pups and they loved her! Being pups they did get into a few things along with making a few messes and she cleaned up after them every time. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch them.
