About: I may not have dogs of my own, but I’ve been the go-to sitter for my sister’s and in-laws’ pups over the years. I’ve cared for my sister’s diabetic dog, following medication and feeding routines closely, and looked after my in-laws’ dogs while they were away on vacation—making sure they were walked, loved, and well cared for. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like family. Whether your pup needs playtime, belly rubs, or a little extra medical attention, I’m here to help! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work four days a week and am available in the afternoons and evenings after work. I’m also free all day on Sundays and Mondays. I love spending my free time with animals—whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to providing consistent, loving care whenever I’m available. Although I live in Granville, I work in Queensbury, so I’m available in that area as well. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medications, or playtime—and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I give them plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and send updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. My goal is to treat your home with respect and your pet like family

“Mollie did an amazing job caring for my kitties during a weekend away. I appreciated her daily check-in text and pictures. We had a last minute cancellation from our booked sitter and Mollie was able to help us out in a pinch, otherwise we would’ve had to cancel plans. I look forward to booking with Mollie in the future”

At this time, my services will be mainly checking in and providing care and attention to pets in your home. I am thorough and conscientious.
About: With experience as a kennel attendant, I have worked with hundreds of different dogs, and am comfortable walking the smallest toy breeds to giant breeds like mastiffs or Great Danes. I have worked with a variety of different personalities and am capable of caring for terminally ill, disabled, or special needs pets! I am currently a college student and mostly spend my time studying if not hanging out with my own pets. I’m available for drop-in visits Monday morning-afternoon, all day Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 3, and Fridays until 2 at this time. I am also available Saturdays and Sundays after 4!

“Tabitha was great with the dogs! She did drop in visits while we were gone for the night. The dogs loved her so of course we would absolutely rebook her when we need her. Thank you Tabitha!”
About: I have experience with cows, horses, dogs, cats, pigs, Guinea pigs, fish, chickens etc from basic feeding and cleaning to much more depending on needs I am currently working part time, and am self employed. I am willing to discuss flexibility to accommodate needs of clients, homes and their pets! I adapt to the needs of my clients and the surrounding. I do like to set up an initial meet so I can ask questions and get familiar to the space, duties and animals.
About: I’ve had 15 + years working in animal rescue and have always had dogs and cats from childhood. My pets are my babies and I’d love to provide the same care yours in their own space when you have to be away. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule so it’s easy for me to adjust to provide for your pets comfort with multiple visits as needed.. I can provide multiple short walks or one long one. My own dogs love a 1.5 hour mid day hike which we can include your dog on if he/she is friendly with others.
About: I have over 10 years of experience as both a dog-sitter and cat-sitter. From high-energy large dogs to senior cats with special needs, I have done it all — and I love them all the same. My lifestyle works well for pets that require someone to be with them 24/7 due to factors like separation anxiety, medical needs, potty training, and more. I currently work from home, so I am available around-the-clock. My schedule works well for animals that need a high level of care or attention. I have a large, un-fenced yard for potty breaks and will always use a leash. In my home, we have a very small (4 lb.), low-energy female senior poodle and two low-key cats that keep to themselves. Your animals will need to be comfortable around both small dogs and cats in order to stay with us.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, and love any dog like it’s my own! Friends have relied on me to watch, walk and feed their dogs. I have two large Goldens of my own, and will certainly spoil yours like I do mine! Walks, cuddles, fetch, whatever you need! I’m currently working full time, but am free before or after work, flexible times depending on location. I am available anytime on the weekends! If you’re close enough to work I also have availability during the day! I currently live in Bristol but work in Rutland Vt. All prices are negotiable depending on location and amount of care your pet needs. Example: House sitting a couple hours or half the day is different than being required to stay the night, and the price will be adjusted accordingly. A watchful eye is a helpful eye! I will stay with your pet as long as you need. I’ve trained two dogs from puppies so I know what to look out for and what to avoid!
About: My family had a couple cats growing up and I've cat sat / cared for cats over the years for neighbors. My fiancé and I both hope to get a cat or dog in the near future so any experience and exposure to caring for an animal would be really helpful. I’ve been around dogs plenty but not specifically cared for them other than through association with friends. Love every moment. I am very flexible right now and have availability during the week Monday to Thursday at this time and will update as my schedule evolves. I hope to offer the utmost trust and reliability to my clients while creating a safe, caring and fun environment for their beloved pets. I enjoy hiking and long walks, so would definitely love an exercise buddy to help me achieve my step goals.
