Dog Sitting Washingtonville

About: I’ve had and cared for my own dogs for the past 6 years and have loved dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up around dogs taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention are to making pets feel safe and comfortable. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available most days, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your routine and make sure your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and stays on schedule while you’re away. Communication is important to me, and I’ll do my best to be available whenever you need dependable pet care. Your pet’s comfort and safety will always come first. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel relaxed and secure. I’ll follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any instructions carefully while giving them attention, patience, and lots of care. I treat every pet like I would my own and aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment.

“Nicole did drop ins for my two dogs for a long weekend. She was very attentive and thorough at keeping you informed on how your dogs are doing. We are repeat customers and would highly recommend her!”

“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.”

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.

“Tina was simply amazing and I cannot believe I found such a gem on this app. I have too much gratitude to express regarding her care of my life, my bay, my everything, a little chihuahua mix who I senior at 12 years old now with bad arthritis. I could tell from the minute I met Tina that she, like me, see dogs as human beings who just need consistent love, positive affirmation, attention and regular food/exercise care. My baby is very shy and shy around other dogs but she warmed up to Tina so so quickly, and was already crying when dropped off by Tina at home after Tina left her. I have the highest recommendation of Tina and even hesitate to post this bc I don’t want her to become too busy to take care of Nell again very soon and for a long time!”

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I have watched all kind of pets for friends, family, and clients. Even a few lizards and hamsters! All ages are welcome from seniors (medicine included) to littles. I work full time and my husband (my pet loving partner) is home in the AM hours. We are a team of pet care. I am available to do walks in the mornings and evenings. If you pet needs a mid-day check in, my husband would LOVE to spoil your pet with attention. My home is pet friendly. We don't have a gated yard, but we love to walk and are active hikers too. In your home, I am respectful of your house and will follow any instructions you have.

“Amberly was GREAT. Knew exactly what to do while caring for my 2 cats while I was away for 10 days. Very responsive and good communication. Will re-book!”

About: I started taking care of my family and friends pets since I was 15. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing a happy pet living out their days to the fullest. Giving them everything they need and more is my top priority for my pets and yours. I’m currently working one day a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have experience in doggy daycares and pet sitting. For the last 2 years I have been grooming dogs and have 2 different certifications. One of those certifications being CPR certified. I have 2 dogs of my own and my purpose is to give them the best life possible! I’m always aware of my surroundings, especially when walking my dogs. I make sure not only am I safe but they are too. I pay attention to the weather and always have water on me when going out with my dogs. My pets are overly loved and taken care of and yours will be too!!

“Jenna was super prompt and communicative, and took such good care of my two cats while I was away - took the time to play with them and sent great updates & photos. She's the best!”

About: I have always had animals in my house ranging from reptiles to kittens. Currently I have three dogs and two cats. Growing up with animals has taught me how to care for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. Along with caring for my own animals I regularly sit for family and friends. I also have worked in a pet store where I learned how to care for puppies and kittens properly in a wide range of breeds. Between caring for their health needs to how to properly groom certain breeds. I am excited to help with your pets needs! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine well. I work a flexible job remotely that allows me to step away from my computer as needed allowing me to care for your animals when needed! I will care for your pets with all the love and attention to detail. I have worked with dogs that are high energy and need long walks to older animals that simply need someone to hang out with. I will pay close attention to your details about how to care for your animal and also what your animal needs at the time.

“Crystal is always so good with my two cats! They absolutely adore her, and they’re hard to win over. She also effectively administered two daily medications for my cat. I rely on Crystal for all of my cat sitting at this point!”

“Kaitlyn was an awesome sitter for my cat for the 5 days I was away. She followed all of my instructions that I had and was great with the details and pics of her visits. I would 100% recommend her services. Thank you so much Kaitlyn for taking care of my fur baby! ?”

“Jenna was amazing! Our usual sitter had to cancel last minute after we had already left. Jenna accommodated a VERY last minute request and saved the day so we didn’t have to leave our event! She was reliable, caring, and gave us total peace of mind. Highly recommend her! Thank you Jenna!!”

About: Hi! My name is Sarahi, and I'm a gal who has always had a passion for loving and working with animals. I have 9 years of pet sitting experience, as I've been pet sitting since I was fourteen years old, and haven't stopped since. I love animals of any size or personality or quirk - they're all worthy of love and attention in my eyes! However, those who know me know that I have a soft spot for dogs :) Neighbors, friends and family members have all trusted me to feed, walk and care for their precious fur-babies. I have experience caring for doggos of all ages- from puppies to seniors. Depending on location, duration, and/or what you prefer, I can plan to stay with them overnight or just drop in to spend time during the day as needed. I'm all about doing what is most comfortable for your fur-baby! Gentle compassion and enthusiastic care are standards I always uphold. I value clear communication and honesty with pet parents. My attention to detail helps me ensure that every pet I care for gets the individualized attention they deserve. My goal is to make sure they feel loved and safe in their own homes while you are away. I love to take them on walks, help groom and bathe them, make sure they are fed, help with medication if necessary and of course - play and give them lots of love. I can also just lay around with them if that’s more their speed. Whatever their needs, I’m here to help while you’re away! :) I can offer plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. I currently work from home three days a week and have a very flexible schedule, making it super easy to bring my work to the home I sit for and attend to your pet's needs. I spend my days off participating in volunteer work mostly in the mornings, but I always ensure to be back in time to take care of them. I am unable to board at my house but am more than willing to drop in or stay at yours :)- whatever makes you and your pet feel most comfortable! In both cases, I make sure to follow pet parents’ instructions very carefully. I will ensure that all areas that we are playing or walking in are either fenced in or they are always leashed. When I’m away, they can be crated if needed and I will ensure they are let out before I leave. Pets in my care are always supervised. I make sure to regularly check on them when things seem too quiet, and am attentive to food, water, and potty needs. I provide a comfortable and familiar environment for your pet, sticking to their regular routines. I also give lots of attention and love to keep them feeling safe and happy. After years of house sitting, I am also used to existing respectfully in someone else’s space. I am tidy and always try to make your home as clean as it was when you left before I leave. I am a quiet neighbor and will ensure that all doors are locked/security systems are set when needed. I make sure to stay in constant communication with you, sending updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in great hands!

“Sade did a great job with our pup while we were away! She was patient when we forgot to leave a key, and kept us up to date on how the dog was doing. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been taking care on animals since I was 10. If it was walking dogs, cleaning kitty litter, brushing out, washing, taking care of rabbits, I can handle it all! I do work full time and am in school full time. Although that may sounds like a lot I have a good amount of free time still on my hands to take care of your fur baby. I take my classes fully online and I finish work Tuesday- Friday by 4pm and Monday's end by 5:30. I will always be reachable at anytime when i’m with your fur baby and will make sure to provide as many pictures and videos as you may want. I have a huge heart for all animals so I can guarantee i’ll love and care for your fur baby as if they were my own.
