Cat Sitting in Whitelaw

“Janyl was wonderful. We have 5 black cats, several of which have special needs, and she got our system down fast. A lot of our close friends still can't tell the cats apart, but she got it within just a couple of visits! Everyone got the right medications and plenty of attention, and Janyl even washed some dishes for us when Rover glitched and she had extra time. I would definitely use her again, especially knowing how much of a pain my kids can be.”

About: As a certified dog trainer, I provide structured, positive reinforcement-based training tailored to each dog’s needs. I also offer safe and enjoyable walks, ensuring dogs get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m skilled at reading canine body language and behavior, which allows me to provide calm, engaging, and stress-free experiences for each dog I work with. Whether it’s training sessions, walks, or enrichment, I treat every dog with care, understanding, and empathy. My client hours are weekdays (excluding holidays) from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., with mornings reserved for admin. and Adirondack Adventure Training. As a professional dog trainer, I love spending quality time with pets each day. In addition to caring for my own animals (two dogs, a cat, and several chickens!), I work with shelter dogs and training clients, giving me extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I love providing safe, attentive, and empathetic care, whether it’s through training sessions, walks, drop-ins, or enrichment activities. I offer in-home training sessions, Adventure Training sessions, and walks, always making the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet a priority. All training is based on positive reinforcement (R+) methods, ensuring dogs feel motivated, engaged, and confident while learning. During walks, I make sure each dog is leashed, closely monitored, and walked in a safe environment. Communication is a top priority—I provide updates on behavior, progress, and next steps, so you can rest assured that your pet is in capable, attentive, and compassionate hands. All walks include loose-leash reinforcement.

“Meghanne is wonderful! She provides excellent care for my Great Pyrenees and I never have to worry about her while I’m away. She was also great about giving her her allergy meds. It’s so good to find someone who is so dependable and provides so much love to my pup when I’m not here.”

“I never leave my pup with anyone and Adriana made me feel so comfortable and my pup loved her. If I am ever back in the area I would definitely use her again.”

“Fourth time using Kristen and she’s just as great as the first time I used her. She’s so good with the boys and even offered to do another feeding session given the bad weather. She’s definitely my go-to!”

“Amber came for a meet and greet and was instantly loved by my dog. The dog and I both feel comfortable booking her for a future stay!”

About: I grew up with two cats, so I love cats as well as dogs. In 2019, I adopted an incredibly loving, gorgeous lab pit named Lucy, and she keeps me very active every day! She was a rescue dog, and although we were originally fostering her, I bonded with her too much to let her go. I’ve always been a natural introvert and have been drawn to the compassion of animals. I believe we can learn more about our own humanity through caring for animals. I look forward to meeting your amazing furry friends! In addition to Rover, I substitute teach right now, and this allows me to have a very flexible schedule. It's closer to part-time than full-time. My priority is to listen and adapt to each client’s needs/preferences, so that both the client and their pets will be as happy as possible.

“If I could leave 10 stars I would! Kyliegh is great with Dallas. I was very stressed about finding someone to walk him and spend some time with him while I work but Kyliegh has made all of those fears disappear. Dallas can be difficult and at times even intimidating but she didn’t give up and made sure she did all she could to make Dallas comfortable. I would highly recommend Kyliegh! I have 0 complaints!”

“My cat felt safe interacting and snuggling up to John within minutes of first meeting him, and I think it’s because of John’s calm, intentional, gentle presence and demeanor. I couldn’t believe this is his first time cat-sitting because he was so good with my cat. He was quick to respond and was communicative throughout the visits, and asked many questions to get to know my cat’s routines and preferences. John was so polite and easygoing. He went above and beyond caring for my cat for the weekend, and this was a last minute scheduling given last minute plans. So grateful for John.”

“Our third pet sitting with Tommy and as always, flawless. Tommy does a wonderful job taking care of the boys and keeping us up to date on events while we're not home.”

Making sure an animal trusts me is important to me.

“Thomas was wonderful with our two kitties. He checked in on them daily and provided us with pictures and updates that were so appreciated. He truly has a gift with our four legged friends!”

“Nora did a fantastic job with my cat! On our first meeting with her we felt very comfortable. I was quite nervous about how my cat would be but she sent pictures and comments everyday to ease my mind. I would highly recommend Nora. She is so sweet with my pet and very reliable. I hope that she will be available in the future! Thanks Nora!”

“Kendal was very reliable, flexible with drop-in times and very dependable. She sent pictures and kept us apprised of how Piper was doing each visit. I would definitely recommend her and we will definitely use her in the future.”

About: I have had pets in my home for as long as I can remember, and throughout my time in my childhood home I cared for 6 cats and 3 dogs. I have working experience caring for reptiles, birds, and fish, and currently own two cute kitties and two wonderful dogs I am currently between full-time positions and have plenty of time to care for your animals. Whether it is cats, dogs, or something a little more exotic, I am free weekdays and weekends to make sure your fur (or not!) family gets the care they deserve. While I am with your animals, I provide the utmost care and attention to them while giving them engaging play or cuddles as they need. I send update texts during each visit and lock up tight when I leave so the kiddos are safe and secure.

About: I have grown up around pets my whole life! Dogs, cats. I loved getting to know them all and take care of them. There personalities are all different much like a human and I am always excited to see who they really are. I am looking to get a part time job within the next two weeks. So more than not I will be able to watch and play with my new friends more! I have been around many dogs before even ones that are more aggressive. Over time I have started to learn the signs of two dogs who are uncomfortable with each other. I would never leave a dog with another dog that isn’t comfortable. I can crate the dog or have them there at different times.

“Melinda is polite, punctual and excellent with Odie. She is reliable, responsible and responsive! I’m very happy with her services :)”
