Pet Sitting in Wilmington

“Jocelyn was great! Provided wonderful updates and was very pleasant to chat with. I knew from the start that our cat was in good hands and Jocelyn kept proving that to be true each day. If you want someone who will go the extra mile to make sure your pets are loved while you’re away, Jocelyn is your person!”

“It is the second time Lena has checked in on our cats while we are out of town. She does a fantastic job and knows how to navigate and interact with our more stressed out and prickly kitty. Thanks, Lena!”

“Ben was such a big help spending time with Daisy for two weeks. He is responsive, kind, and will form a bond with your pup in no time. We look forwarding to hiring Ben again!”

“Julia was amazing with Leon on her drop in visit with him. She paid so much attention to him and was so patient with him. He is a senior so that is exactly what he needs. We will be having her back to look after him soon!”

About: I am a retired licensed veterinary technician looking to care for your pet in your home. I have well over a dozen years of experience. I will provide your pet with very good care and lots of fun times. My schedule is very full, so book early to ensure availability.

About: I’ve had all sorts of animals such as dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, and leopard geckos. I’ve grown my whole life with animals. I have lots of skill with all kinds of animals I am currently a full time student but have a lot of free time during the day due to being online for the school year. I promise to provide the best care for your pets, treating them as if they were my own. I also respect your home and will ensure it’s left in excellent condition. While I don’t offer pet care in my home, I’m fully committed to creating a safe and comfortable experience for your pets in their own environment.

About: My name is Melissa and I have taken care of animals since my first dog in second grade. I previously had a Labrador and Shih-Tzu who both lived until old age. I also fostered older dogs who could not find homes due to their age. I currently have a one year old yellow lab mix. He’s dog and cat friendly. In order to board your dog, your dog must be dog friendly. I also require a meet and greet to ensure it’s a good fit. I offer boarding in my home. I live in a second story apartment in an old building with a large yard. There is a picture of my apartment located within my pictures. I only board one animal at a time as it's a one bedroom apartment. It allows me to spend quality time with your pet! For boarding I do provide food dishes and toys, but many animals prefer to have some of their own. I also have a medium sized dog crate if required and requested. I have open availability on weekends, however I work from home on weekdays and there may be times I need to be out of my home for up to three hours. I have a camera in my home and will be able to remotely check on your pet if I need to be away for work. I will always inform you prior to the booking if I have appointments out of the home. I am experienced feeding animals in a variety of ways and will follow your instructions on feeding and walking. I ensure animals are well cared for, played with, and that they receive the attention and care needed.

“Shelby worked with us on short notice and went above and behind taking great care of our little guy. We would definitely use her again!”

About: I've helped take care of dogs ever since I was five years old. I was relied on in my family to feed, walk, and give emotion care to our various dogs over the years. I've helped to take care of small dogs and very large dogs. I currently work as a middle school teacher, so I would be available to take care of your dog in the evenings and on the weekends. I have a large shared backyard that could be used to throw a ball of frisbee with dogs. My house is close to the Burlington Bike Path which would allow for easy access to walk. My apartment is also spacious enough for your pet to be able to roam or big enough to accommodate a crate if needed.

“Karen was fantastic! My pup was quite the handful (first time) & she was so patient & knowledgeable & really went the extra mile above & beyond. Highly recommend!”

About: I've taken care of neighbors cats and dogs since middle school in my hometown. I've grown up with pets my whole life and greatly understand their needs and the responsibilities associated with pet care. I’m a clear and responsive communicator and will always listen to how you want your pet cared for. I also enjoy going for runs and hikes, so if your dog has a lot of energy, we will get along well! I’m excited to meet your pet(s)! I am able to do overnights with pets and can visit them during mornings, midday, and nights. I can take last minute bookings. I work a flexible schedule during the week. I make sure to assess the comfortability of the animal before settling into the house. I try to keep it a quiet atmosphere until the animal feels comfortable being around me. I make sure that they are my priority and I give them full attention given that they're most likely stressed. I will respect the owners house and belongings.

About: I grew up on a small hobby farm with goats, chickens, horses, dogs and cats. When I was younger I helped train 2 Border Collie/Australian Sheppard mix puppies. I have a good sense of what animals need and am very patient and loving with all animals. I have a infant daughter who will be accompanying me with most my drop in visits. She will be in a backpack while I take care of your furry friend. I am available most mornings, nights and weekends. I love being outside and love being around animals. I am active, friendly, and responsible. I can't wait to take care of your pet and give it love and attention. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I am flexible! I have little ones (2 young daughters) but they will be able to come with me on occasion and they are also pet lover themselves. I have a fenced in yard if needed and love going on long walks and hikes. We would get lots of play time in and happy to bring my dog along for companion if wanted.

About: I’ve helped take care of my family’s Australian Labradoodle, Penny, ever since we got her, 5 years ago. In these past couple years I’ve facilitated dozens of “doggy play dates” (communal dog walking and play time at dog parks and backyards) with dogs of all different sizes. I am very comfortable and confident with all types of dogs, and often dog sit and dog walk for friends and neighbors when they are out of town. I currently live in Burlington and am free on weekends and after 5pm MWF and after 6pm Tuesday and Thursday. I am able to spend as much time as needed with your pets if it makes you, or them, more comfortable! I’m comfortable caring for pets in new environments. I can crate, feed, walk, and play with your animals, and will be clean and respectful to your space and home.

“Took good care of my cats. Did everything I asked for, and even cleaned up some vomit on the floor, plus cleaned the wet food plates. Will do business again. Thank you”

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds, from cats to cows! I love animals of all kinds and am excited to meet yours! I am currently working a few jobs part time, so I will be able to provide attentive care for most of the work week and weekend. I have an unfenced yard and a park right in front of my house. The neighborhood is great for walks. My home is large and I am comfortable staying in clients homes.

About: Have had pets since I was a child, over 20 years. I am a current pet and livestock owner. I have dogs, goats, bunnies and chickens. I am available most week days and every other weekend. I can be flexible, but it would have to work around my full time job. I am willing to drop in and walk your dog for as long as you'd like. Will play catch, ball and run them when possible.

“Erica is wonderful! Asked all the right questions beforehand, and sent us photos during her visit. We will definitely reach out to her again in the near future! She's really great!”

About: I’ve been caring for my own pets since I was a child, including dogs, cats, goats, and rabbits. I’ve also cared for other people’s horses, pigs, and chickens. I love all animals but I am always partial to the misfits. If you have any animals with special needs or behavioral issues I’d love a chance to get to befriend them! I currently have 2 dogs of my own and I know how precious any four legged babies are. I currently have my own residential house cleaning business so I have the ability to set my own schedule. I can be available for morning, afternoon or evening visits most days. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions, and enjoy sending updates so you know your baby is doing well! Pics included :) They’re safety & comfort and respecting your home is my priority.

About: I've owned a dog ever since I was 12 years old. Dogs have gotten me through the best and worst parts of my life. I have a background in physical therapy and massage and for years I enjoyed bringing my dog to work every day, she became the nursing home mascot, seeing the joy she brought to both my patients and coworkers made every day at work a great day :). I work in Saranac Lake and Lake Placid as an independent contractor. My work schedule/hours can be very flexible/adjusted accordingly as long as I have advanced notice to plan accordingly. I live on 4.5 acres with a long driveway set back from the road. My property backs up to a wooded trail network. I also have a very large, gated Freedom Fenced in dog play area on my property. Dogs are free to all areas of home without restriction. Unfortunately, my husband and I are allergic to cats so I am unable to board them. I do have a 3 year old daughter, so if boarding, pet must be good around children. I also do not board or provide in home services for dogs that are exposed to smoking or vaping of any kind. Please note; when providing pet care services, I will never leave a dog unsupervised, or under the care of anyone other than myself.
