House Sitting in Valcour

“What we most loved about Hailey was how quickly our animals took to her — our dogs were leaning against her within minutes, and even the cats who hide came out and let her pet them the very first night! It was comforting to leave our pets in the care of someone who clearly loves and understands animals. And though we ended up rushed and didn't have as much time as I wanted to orient her, she perfectly remembered and followed all instructions. We've already booked her again.”

“I am so grateful for the care provided for our cats! It felt clear that she understood how to meet and make each cat comfortable! I believe our cats felt supported and safe because August did everything to keep the cats routines. We feel so grateful and will book again!”

“Anna was terrific. She spent quality time with our pets, cared for our house, sent pics and updates and was very flexible to meet our needs. I'd recommend her and will use her again.”

“Nicole took amazing care of our dog and cat while we were away! We would love to work with her again and would definitely recommend her for house sitting!”

About: Currently a golden retriever and cat mom, my love for animals began when I was a child. In my adult life, I have owned a Corgi, St. Bernard, and cats that I have cared for their entire lives. I am looking to help others in need of pet care, whether it is a daily walk or visit, or overnight boarding. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule to help with pet care. I can provide daily walks or outside time as needed. Dogs and cats are like family to me. Your pet will be treated as one of my own - with lots of love and attention!

“Bev did a great job of taking care of our dog Clover for the weekend! She also did a meet and greet with us before hand which made us more comfortable. Have already booked with her for a future visit. Thanks Bev!”

“Sydney was great - very responsive and kind. She took care of my dog and my two cats. Looking forward to having her watch my animals again soon!”

About: I’ve had dogs that both lived over 15 healthy years plus sitting .I’m dependable, cautious about their safety and respond quickly. I’m respectful and flexible. I work part time as a caregiver and have a flexible schedule. I’m reliable, mature and will be attentive. As well as reachable when needed. I’m careful about your pets safety as well as a feeding schedule. I’m cautious regarding heat and ice and keep their environment clean and tidy.

“Kate was amazing! Her communication and attention were invaluable. Atlas had such a good weekend and we could be away with the assurance that he was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Tracey was a dream to work with. She was so good with Wilson and took great care with him. With him being only 4 months old this was only the second time I have been away from him. I would recommend Tracy in a heartbeat.”

About: Everyone around me knows how much I love pets. I have helped dog sitting my boss’s dog, and as a first timer, I know I did great! I’m working a full time job, I’m ready for anything after working hours and weekends. For occasional home visits, I can make some exceptions depending on my schedule. I myself have a cat, and I haven’t been able to assess how she would react with other pets so I’m holding off on bringing other pets at my place for now. Otherwise, for the clients, I make sure I observe all safety measures and that I’m giving them all the love.

“Drew was so amazing with our pup! He received lots of love and attention while we were gone. Our dog can also be reactive towards other animals on leash, and Drew did a fantastic job.”

“Julia was awesome with Isaac and kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages. I felt very comfortable with her immediately and will absolutely reach out to her again with future bookings! I also want to note how accommodating she was - arriving at 5:30am so I could get to an important meeting. I so appreciate her punctuality and ability to take in Isaac’s care plan so quickly. Isaac is a shy rescue and it takes a special person for him to warm up so quickly. Thank you, Julia!”

About: I’ve had a dog in my household my entire life. I worked on a farm for two summers so I have a lot of experience with animal care. I’ve been a pet sitter in some capacity for roughly 8 years and I have experience with puppies, dogs of all ages, and dogs with anxiety and trauma issues. During high school I regularly took care of two dogs with anxiety and high energy. I did my senior year thesis project in high school on dog behavior, training and reactivity. As part of my project I got my dog and cat first aid certification from the Red Cross, which has since lapsed while I was getting my EMT license. Also as well as working for Rover for a couple summers, after high school I worked at a dog kennel for close to a year which saw up to about 40 dogs a day. Now I’m in college and looking to spend some time with dogs since we don’t have one of our own. I’ll take excellent care of your furry family members if given the opportunity! I work 3 days a week but am out of school for the summer so I have plenty of other time for walks and drop ins! As of right now I don’t offer any service in my home. For my other services, in Burlington we live in close proximity to a lot of little walks and hikes that I would love to take your pups on! Or just a little walk around the block if that’s what your pup prefers. For drop ins I follow any instructions clients leave for me, and do my best to make the pup feel cared for and loved!

“Liddy was a great dog sitter. Was so easy to communicate with and was so sweet sending photos. Our pup had a great time!”

Jodi L.

“Fantastic sitter. My dog and cat loved her! My dog got some special walks and was so happy to have a new friend. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for help with their animals!”

About: While I don't have any special training with animals, I like to listen to what the owner and the animal needs for care. I genuinely love hanging out with them. I love how excited dogs get when I walk into a house, or how free they feel and excited they are for a walk. Or when cats rub up against you and love getting pets. Pets are like people, they're all unique and have their own personality and needs. That's what makes pets awesome, how different they all are. I'm currently working a few hours each week from home, so I have plenty of free time to hang out with pups, or kitties, or take dogs for a much need walk or bathroom break. Well that depends on the animal, because each pet is different. how comfortable they are with me, how many times do I need to be introduced to them, how the owner would like me to care for them. Theres a lot of factors that come into play, so I am willing to do what the owner would like to be done for their own pet.

“Sade was the BEST - sending pictures of Marvin, taking him to our local reservoir, giving him plenty of snuggles, and just letting us feel relaxed while we’re away. Marvin isn’t the easiest dog sometimes and we feel so calm and comfortable knowing he’s in Sade’s hands!”

Julia S.

“Payton was amazing. She was communicative, responsible, and took good care of my dogs as well as the house. We had a medical emergency with one of the dogs that she handled like a rock star - we were very thankful that she was there and had no doubts that our dogs were well looked after.”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Daniel — a lifelong animal lover and reliable sitter based in Plattsburgh, NY. Over the years, I’ve cared for six dogs of my own and have regularly walked and dog-sat for friends, neighbors, and local clients. Whether it’s a brisk walk, some much-needed playtime, or a cozy companion while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m a 26 year old creative/entrepreneur focused on my growth but pet care is something I’ve always enjoyed, taken seriously, and do as a side hustle. My schedule is flexible, especially on holidays, and I’ll do everything I can to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine. I understand pets can get nervous when their humans are away. That’s no problem — I’m calm, patient, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're gone. If you ever have questions, I’m always just a message away! 🗓️ My hours are flexible! I currently work part-time at a restaurant in Plattsburgh but when the day winds down, I'm a self employed musician/entrepreneur. Don't hesitate to reach out with the dates and times you need cause I'm sure I can fit your furry friend into my week! 🏡 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I make sure they’re well exercised, fed, and relaxed — whether we’re out for a walk or just hanging out. I’m gentle but confident when working with animals and understand that each one has their own unique needs and behaviors. I’m here to make them feel at home, even when they’re not.
