About: Hello there! My name is Tara and I’m a full time stay-at-home mom to 3 boys. I currently have an 8 year old German Shepherd rescue, named Sullivan, but I have been around and taken care of animals all of my life. Everything from cats, ferrets, and dogs to lizards, fish, and turtles. I’m absolutely in my “happy place” when in the presence of animals. I am Pet CPR Certified! My experience includes caring for, walking, playing, feeding, cleaning up after and giving oral medications. As a fur-mom, I know the importance of providing individualized care and vow to treat your pets as if they are my own. The happiness and safety of your pet(s) are always my top priorities. My availability is pretty flexible for drop-ins and walks, but it changes day-to-day. With enough advanced notice I can almost always make room in my calendar. I will care for your pet by ensuring a fun, playful, and safe environment for them. I hope to leave them each day well exercised and happily loved on.

“As always Debi took amazing care of my girl Luna. Debi always communicates consistently, takes great care of my animals, and sends the cutest pictures of their time together! 10/10 recommend!”


About: I love pets! I work in pet care at an veterinary hospital and have training and experience taking care of pets and supervising large playgroups of dogs. I’ve completed courses on dog body language, dog safety, dog health, and dog behavior. I work with all sizes and sorts of dogs (puppies, adults, seniors, etc). I understand how important your pets are to you and understand that every pet is different! I currently work part-time, so I am flexible around my work schedule. I would love to help make your pet’s day better in any way that I can! I have training and experience working in pet care settings. I understand how important your pets are to you and like to know as many instructions about your pet as possible to provide a safe environment for them!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including large breeds like Kangals. What sets me apart is my experience with rescue dogs and my patient, calm approach—especially helpful for nervous pups or those new to structured care. I’m currently training a young rescue myself and understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and routine. Whether your pet is a playful pup or a sweet senior, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease in my care. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, playtime, and care they need throughout the day. Whether it’s regular walks, cuddle breaks, or sticking to a specific feeding routine, I make sure each pet feels like they’re my top priority. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and rest. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment and use leashes for all outdoor time to ensure their safety. Hikes and long walks are absolutely doable if your pup needs extra activity—I’m happy to adjust based on their energy level. I do slow, supervised introductions with other pets and never leave dogs unsupervised together until I know they’re fully comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in loving, reliable hands and treated like family every step of the way.

About: I am an experienced pet owner & animal lover with a lot of love to give to each pet I care for. I have been working with animals for over 15 years along with growing up with pets. I spent many years working as kennel staff at a boarding facility and absolutely loved it. With a high demand for in-home services I slowly transitioned into pet sitting. I am very attentive to the pets in my care while providing a safe fun environment. I am reliable and timely so you can always depend on me to be there for your pets. If you need a cozy safe place for them to stay, I offer boarding at my beautiful quiet home with an acre of fenced grasslands. I am insured and bonded. Senior and puppy experience. First Aid. Crate training required. Pet sitting is my full time job therefore I am readily available. I spend most of the day at home with boarders, daycare and my own pet. I have pet visits/walk locally around town throughout the week. I am able to provide your pet with many potty breaks throughout day and lots of playtime. I have a beautiful quiet home in the farmlands of Wallkill on one acre of fenced grasslands. I have a huge safe environment fit for all energy levels and exercise needs. They can freely sniff around or run with plenty of space. The pets get their own individual cozy space to eat, rest and sleep indoors.

I have a dog movie room where the pets can cuddle on the couch and watch movies. I provide fresh beds and bowls daily.

About: If you’d ask anyone in my life they will tell you I am a dog person more than human person. I’ve always had immense love for all dogs and do my best to play off their personality :). My three years ago experience at a dog daycare/boarding facility has taught me patience with all dogs. I can provide feeding, walking, medicating (have cared for diabetics) and can be a temporary companion for your baby if needed :) While I was in my undergrad I had the wonderful experience of fostering a pitty mix from my local spca for 3 months. When we got him he was extremely underweight and was having a hard time in the shelter. I nursed him back to the happy guy he was all along and he’s now in a happy loving home 🖤 I’m currently working part time and taking classes as I am in the process of completing a masters program. I do not know the days I work week to week but am available to give services 3 times a day (7amish, 2pmish, and in the pm). My family dog is a grazer so we just put some food out for the day and he’ll eat whenever. If your pups have scheduled meals I’m 100% able to work with it. If your pup is high energy and my schedule is open I’m available to play with them, find a park or take them for a walk to give them enrichment. For those with reactive or babies that have a hard time trusting strangers, I completely understand and can work with that as well!!

“We just adopted a dog on Sunday. She was able to do a super last minute meet on Tuesday and a walk Wednesday because I had a doctor's appointment that couldn't be moved. I can't express how grateful I was. Megan is the best.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have trained many dogs. From crate training, to commands. Nothing makes me happier then when my babies are happy and obedient. I am available Monday through Sunday for your fur baby. I'm looking forward to spoiling your baby with love and kindness. Love and always kindness I have a fenced in yard at my house for my two dogs. It doesn't matter if you do, I'm willing to walk or take your baby to the dog park. I will do whatever I have too to make your baby happy.

“I highly recommend Arianna's services! She is timely, courteous, and communicative. Arianna sent me a note as she and Jax started their walk and sent me a note when they ended confirming he was safe at home. I will definitely book Arianna to walk Jaxon again! Thanks Arianna!”


“Amberae was wonderful with our dog on a quick trip out of town! She’s super communicative, punctual, friendly. Her love and care for animals really makes us happy to have her (especially for our doggie who’s very anxious and can take time to warm up to new people.) We’ll definitely use her again and are so happy to have found such a great dog walker in Beacon! If I could give more stars, I would 😀”
