House Sitting in Woodbourne

“Paula was fantastic from the beginning. Her communication is great. She’s kind and responsive and made me feel very confident that my pets would be well cared for. I have a diabetic cat who needs medicine, and Paula’s experience caring for pets with other medical conditions was reassuring. She sent lots of photos and I could tell they were well loved while I was away.”

“Alisa is a true animal lover and my gang adored her. She is a great communicator, always letting you know how everything is going, when she is arriving, when she is leaving. She sends lots of photos and videos and was a joy to work with. I felt like my guys were in great hands and I would absolutely work with her again!”

About: I took animal science at port ewen boces throughout my junior and senior year of highschool. I've learned pet care, restraints, handling and grooming. I've always had a love for animals especially dogs! Pet care fits into my daily routine because i have three dogs at home that i walk and feed everyday. day. I am very comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am confident handling both small and large dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and proper control when working with them. 🐾 When caring for pets, I always make safety a priority. I make sure dogs are either on a leash or in a secure fenced area and never left to wander off alone. I also pay attention to foods and situations that could be harmful to pets so they stay healthy and safe. 🐶🐱💕

“Sarah was fantastic! We booked her for our 2 labs because we were getting married ! We didn't have to worry about them once, she played with them, and kept them happy. We would absolutely recommend her !”

“Outstanding Dog Sitter! We can’t say enough wonderful things about Lillie. She took care of our four dogs for an entire week -each with their own quirks and handled it all with incredible patience and professionalism.She kept us updated with amazing photos and thoughtful messages every day, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. Our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again.”

Joanie G.

“Absolutely awesome. My pets LOVED her and they can be funny about new people. Right from the meet and greet I knew she'd be a good fit. Updated us all weekend long and sent pics.”

“Vanessa was by far the best sitter we’ve had in nearly ten years. She went above and beyond. She took pebbles on hikes and swims and dog parks, kept her super clean and managed her food and meds very well. We returned in over a week to find pebbles thriving. We would call on Vanessa in a heart beat going forward whenever we need someone to care for our pup.”

Samarth N.

“The doggos and I are very happy to have met Sara. She’s communicative and reliable, sent photos every day and treated them well while keeping to their routine. This was a short work trip but I’d be perfectly comfortable asking Sara to care for them at my place if I had to be away longer.”

About: As I will be your dogs new best friend I will create a homely atmosphere for your fur baby. I have experience with all types of animals as well as special needs animals. I have experience administering medications. I have taken care of special needs animals before as one of my family members does have a dog prone to seizures as well as special needs. I have watched her many times and have never missed med times or had any problems. As a fur baby lover, I love car rides as well as trips to the dog park. I love cuddling and relaxing with all the fur babies under my care. While your fur baby is in my care, I will give them lots of loving as I know a new face might be a little bit scary. Your fur baby will be provided with days of fun and love. I am available any time to watch your fur baby whether it be just one walk or a whole week pet/housesitting. The only exception is if I’m already scheduled for someone else. My biggest concern is keeping your fur baby content and healthy. One of the best ways I have found to lessen stress is keeping a strict schedule.

About: Hi! I'm Liz, a dedicated animal caretaker with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and pocket pets. I'm passionate about keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe, whether it's through daily walks, playtime, or administering medications. I treat every animal like a member of my own family and take pride in providing consistent, loving, care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work from home, so pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine in a way that is structured but flexible, depending on the pets' needs, and the type of care I am providing. I have over an acre in my back yard that can be enjoyed for playtime with pets. I have secure doors in my house, and I keep my home secure and pet-proof. No small objects or breakable items in areas where we play and spend time. I have a pet first-aid kit on hand in my home. I have contact information for local veterinarians and emergency clinics readily available. I have some basic knowledge in first-aid and CPR for dogs and cats.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—whether it’s been my own pets, helping out friends, or rescuing strays in need. Both of my cats were rescued by me, and I’ve always had a natural connection with animals. They’re drawn to me, and I love giving them the same trust and affection they show me. I grew up with big dogs, including two pit bulls and a boxer, so I’m confident and comfortable handling larger breeds. Over the years, I’ve potty trained dogs, taught tricks, and cared for pets with all kinds of temperaments. My experience goes beyond cats and dogs—I’ve also cared for frogs, snakes, turtles, and even had the incredible opportunity to volunteer with elephants in Thailand. My love for animals runs so deep that I’ve been vegan for over a decade. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. What I Offer 🐾 A 100% open and flexible schedule—your pets will always get the time, love, and attention they deserve. 🐾 Experience with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and special needs. 🐾 Patience, playfulness, and genuine compassion for every pet I meet. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, playtime, or extra TLC, I’ll treat your fur babies like they’re my own. I have a completely open and flexible schedule, available any day and time. Since I mostly work from home, I can easily accommodate bookings, cancellations, last-minute changes, and special requests. The only exception is occasional weekend evenings after 5 PM, when I work at The Colony in Woodstock. Other than that, I’m always here for you and your pets! I live in a spacious three-bedroom, 2 story home with a large open yard, perfect for pets to play and explore. Your furry friend will have plenty of room to stretch, run, and enjoy the outdoors while getting all the exercise and fresh air they need to stay happy and healthy.

“Kristina looked after our 2 5-year old lab/shepherd dogs at our home for 8 days. We couldn't have hoped for a better experience - Kristina goes above and beyond in every capacity. Kristina was excellent with our boys. They absolutely adore her! Kristina is a great communicator. She kept us well-informed as to how things were going at our home. She's mature, responsible, and a pleasure to interact with. Thanks to Kristina, we had a carefree vacation and returned home to 2 very happy, healthy, and content pups and a spotlessly clean home. Kristina is a gem!”

“Our experience with Alexa was second to none! She stepped in to dog sit very last minute and treated our Ruby like royalty.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was in high school, including two years working as a veterinary assistant. I have a cat of my own, and have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and health statuses (from puppies to seniors who needed medication). I also have experience with basic training and am familiar with continuing important routines. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of free time to care for your pets! I’m also very active and can adjust my schedule for any need. I have a large yard and a park right down the street from my house that I can easily board a dog at my home. I have one 100% indoor cat who loves a new friend.
