“Mary was wonderful and extremely reliable. I really appreciated that she came and met with me and my dog before she started. She made my trip more enjoyable because I didn’t worry about my dog.”

“Amazing! So good with our dog Kingsley. Kingsley gets sad on the days he doesn't get to visit with him! I've recommended David to my co-workers whenever they end up going out of town.”

About: I have two golden doodles who mean the world to me, but aside from my own pets i have made sure to surround myself with animals my whole life so far (I'm 27 currently) i grew up helping out friends and neighboors with animal care. to me pets are not just pets they are family. I love being outdoors going for walks myself so I take a great deal of pride being able to help someone with the joy in their life and incorporating it into what I already love to do. I currently work full time monday-Thursday with friday, saturday,and sunday off. I will be available any of those three days off for any service someone is requesting, and I am open to commuting aswell. I have two golden doodles who I treat them same as my closest and dearest friends/family. It would be no different with anyone else. One of my biggest beliefs is that respect and kindness speaks for itself and goes a long way so im very geared towards the needs, wants, requirements ect... that a client has or is requesting.

About: Growing up we bred St Bernard’s, and throughout childhood we had Chihuahuas, a Boxer & a Jack Russell Terrier, so I am very comfortable with any size dog! I currently own a 6 year old Corgi that I have had since he was a puppy and a 4 year old Pitbull that we rescued when she was a year old, so I am comfortable with any breed as well! I understand you don’t want your fur babies to sit home alone all day, especially if they are crated when you’re not home, so they can run around and stretch their legs. I’m a new mom and have 4 animals at my house. I love caring for them and love to care for yours too! I have 2 other jobs but I do love to squeeze in hanging out with your pets when I can to help out Whether you have a fenced in yard, a run, or need me to leash your fur baby for a nice long walk, I can tend to any of their needs! I remain calm and patient as new animals warm up to me and will make sure they are safe (crated or not), well fed and hydrated before I leave.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I’ve been 16 years old. I watched for family, friends, and people in my town growing up. It was a great way to learn responsibility and the importance of caring for something. I have experience raising a litter of puppies recently. We worked on listening skills, potty training, and knowing boundaries in the yard. I am currently home with my baby caring for him, so I have a very available schedule. I am home all weekdays and weekends as well to offer care for your pets. My yard is fenced in, and there is a large area in the back of the property we live on where we go to play and run around that is not near the road at all. I’d have to leash dogs to walk them back there and then they’re safe to be off!

About: In my house, our pets are our family and they rule the house. My goal as a pet sitter is to provide animals with the best care and put owners at ease while they’re away. I have found a passion for caring for others’ animals which started many years ago when i began volunteering. From volunteering, I have experience with many different breeds and sizes of both dogs and cats and I also have experience administering medication, taking care of dogs with special needs, and LOTS of drool! By word of mouth, I have gained many clients in my area and continue to provide the best care I can for every family and their furry friends! I am currently a sophomore at Siena College. Therefore, while classes are in session, I stick to weekends only. In the summertime, I am available every day of the week and I typically work 4-6 hour days. I offer in-home care at the convenience of you and your pets. Boarding is expensive and pets are nowhere nears as spoiled as they would be with me! Keeping your pets in your home while you are gone will ease their anxiety (as well as yours) and provide the best level of comfort for them. I offer the in-home care as well as dog walking and occasional drop-ins!

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’m a lifelong cat lover who understands that every feline has their own unique personality — from curious kittens who want to explore every corner to laid-back seniors who just want a sunny spot and soft pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, temperaments, and special needs, including administering medication, maintaining feeding schedules, and keeping litter boxes fresh. I know cats thrive on routine and trust, so I take the time to earn their comfort — whether that means interactive play, quiet companionship, or just respecting their space. I’m also experienced in reading feline body language, so your cat will always feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles when you can’t be there. I believe pets feel safest when they’re treated like family. In my care, your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and a calm, comfortable environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles — so they feel right at home. I will always put your pet’s safety and well-being first.
