“David was very understanding during my GSDs surgery and lay up/recovery. He was so concerned and checked in to see how the surgery went. Last week was their first week they were able to do the usual walk and she was SO happy. Now she is even more enthusiastic about her walks and greets him with big tail wags! David is the best! Ever!”
About: I’ve had animals from childhood and love learning about all of their special requirements so that they thrive and are happy. I’ve received multiple trainings in pet first aid and never leave the house without being prepared. I have room in my schedule morning, lunch, and evening walks and feeding. I have limited space to take your dog to my home for boarding. I have plenty of property but would keep your dog on a leash when going outside. I have two dogs who are very dog friendly and make friends easily. They just love to chase the ball and love life. I am extremely conscientious; my dogs are very well cared for. I bring that same level of care to everything that I do.
“Alexa is amazing with Kailani. You can see that she loves dogs. I highly recommend her!”
“Monica was great to work with - easy to communicate with. Tiny was a happy pup after her walks. Would 100% work with her again. (Thanks, Monica!)”
“I had to go out of town last minute and Sebastian was very accommodating. They took wonderful care of my dog while I was away and sent me detailed updates at all of the scheduled times. I felt completely at ease and didn’t worry about my dog because I knew she was in great hands.”
“Our dog Whiskey has already become fond of Christina and their walks together. Christina is a great communicator and reliable dog walker. I look forward to booking Christina more and maybe future overnights too. She is a wonderful, friendly and clearly great with pets and highly recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve helped walk, play, bathe and feed relatives/friends pets as well. I’ve also have done hands on interactive training with my dogs. I’m a recent college graduate looking for activities that I can make money and enjoy doing! I work nights at a restaurant so I am free during daytime. 🌞 I am very calm and know how to read pets. I’m willing to read the situation and take your word on how to best care for your pet family.
“Alexander has been amazing! He stepped in when we really needed the help and the dogs love him!”
About: Hi! My name is Allie, I'm currently in a Master’s Program for speech language pathology through SUNY New Paltz. I am a full-time student looking for a part- time, flexible job. I have been dog sitting/walking since I was 14 years old for dogs of all different types of breeds, sizes and behaviors! My neighbors, family members, and friends have used my services to provide care of their fur babies while on vacation, a long weekend trip, or even during work hours! I have experience with small and big dogs and have cared for multiple pups at once. I worked for a company called “Long Island Pet Nanny” this past summer and have gained great experience taking care of all different types of pets with various personalities. I feel confident that I can provide great service for you and your pet and hope it can make your day a bit easier! 🐕🐈 I will be within the Kingston and New Paltz areas throughout the summer and am looking for a part time job to help pay for my expenses while I’m in my internship. I will always try my best to work with your schedule with my availability! :) In your home, I will follow your instructions very carefully. I pay close attention to detail such as to where the dog or cat is allowed, how long the pet needs to be walked/played with, what they are fed, and if they require medications. I hope to gain your pets trust and love while creating a bond with them and ensuring they’re happy and healthy.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals. I worked for a veterinary clinic for about 2 years and have housesit/petsit for friends and family since I was able to drive. I have experience giving medicine and would have no problem doing that for you. I work as a server 4 days a week. Either at 10:30 am to 5 pm or 5 pm to midnight. For extended stays I wouldn’t be gone for more than 8 hours. I live in a no pets apartment at the moment so would need to come to you. I’m a lounger but take a long walk every day. Your pet would get some exercise and plenty of cuddles the rest of the day.
About: I have always grown up around dogs ever since I was little. I am a trustworthy pet sitter and love spending time with my pets! I have a lot of free time before I go back to school, and I’m looking for a side job. I love working with animals and I’m looking forward to pet sitting. I won’t be available to pet sit starting August 20th as I am going back to school- I will always make sure the pet is in my eyesight, I will play with pets and keep them occupied, and make sure they don't feel too overwhelmed and keep them calm.
“Venetia showed up on time (a little early even to get the lowdown on my dog!) and helped burn some puppy energy! She took my 1 year old dog on a nice nature walk with beautiful pics :-) She was very patient with some naughty behaviors we're working on (jumping!) and her calm demeanor put my boy at ease to go off with a stranger. She responded promptly to my requests and was VERY thorough with getting all of Reshi's information. Will be using her services again soon and would def recommend Venetia for your pets needs :-)”
“It was olivia P.'s first walk with my dog Finley and everything went really well. She was prompt and took finley on a lovely walk despite the bitter cold weather. She sent me an update as to where they had ventured and spent some time playing with finley inside as it was so so cold. I was really pleased!”
“Liz did a terrific job taking care of Louise. Liz apprised me of her training, asked detailed questions and communicated with me efore during and after her walk. We will definitely be usig Liz again!”
“Ronnie was super easy on a last minute walk. He was very communicative and even brought a reflective safety belt for the night time walk! Thanks Ronnie”
“Simon helped my husband with our dog's walks after I hurt my knee. He was very responsive, always on time, and flexible. He has a very calming manner and Jack readily went to him and followed him out the door with no hesitation! I highly recommend Simon to care for your dog, and he will remain part of our pack! - Zelda”
About: Hi, I'm Marceline! Growing up with a wildlife rehabilitator for a parent, I was surrounded by animals from day one. From bottle-feeding baby raccoons to gently caring for injured birds, I learned early on the patience, empathy, and responsibility that animals deserve. That lifelong passion turned into a career of caring: I spent 4 years at a cat shelter, helping to socialize, medicate and find loving homes for many cats. Beyond that, I've volunteered extensively at Farm sanctuaries and animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience with dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, and more! Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and sensitive, I'm dedicated to providing calm, attentive, loving care that meets their unique needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animal family. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own - with respect, reliability and plenty of love. Let's connect - I'd love to meet you and your pets! Because I have an open schedule, I'm able to dedicate focused time throughout the day for walks, feedings, play, medication and whatever unique care each pet needs. I plan my day around their routines, not the other way around - whether that means early morning visits, midday potty breaks, evening cuddle time, or sleepovers. I'm used to structuring my day with animals in mind, especially my own cats and hermit crabs. Being attentive to animals' behaviors and needs is second nature to me, and I always make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and consistency throughout the day. When you leave your pet in my care, you're not just hiring someone to feed or walk them - you're trusting me with a member of your family. I take that responsibility seriously. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is at the heart of everything I do. I closely follow your pet's routines, dietary needs, and any medical requirements to make sure they stay happy and healthy. Im experienced in handling a wide range or animals - including those with special needs, and I always keep a close eye on behaviot and well-being When I visit your home for your pet, I strive to create a low-stress environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. From cozy resting spots to familiar routines and gentle handling, I make sure your pet feels right at home with me.
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs since I was a child. I would love to take care of your beloved pets. I adore animals! I currently work part-time and have a lot of availability in between my work schedule. I can easily pet care during the week and on the weekends. I am 100% present and naturally intuitive with animals. I am there for whatever they may need. They will be cared for and loved when they are with me.
About: Never have I been without a pet. Life is nothing without the love and companionship of a pet. I am a lover of all animals, but dogs hold my heart. I do work full time at a veterinary office as a care coordinator. I am looking to offer weekend care, and may, possibly expand hours/days in the future. I live on a 1.5 acre. I have a small, fenced in yard 10 x 30. Am able to leash walk on the property, and live on a back road which is perfect for leash walking.
