Dog Sitters in Arden, NY

Andrew was an absolute pleasure to work with. When we came back, our home was perfectly tidy and clean, and our cats were relaxed. Andrew was independent and a great communicator. He sent us a few pictures of our pets that made us smile during our trip :) We would love to have him back!

Nora was everything you could have asked for in a house sitter. She asked really thoughtful questions that made us feel like she cared. She read and re-read our house guide and made sure she fully understood her duties before we left. She even came by a day early to meet the cats and have lunch with us so we would feel comfortable with each other, which we appreciated. While we were gone, Nora sent us daily updates about the cats and our plants. She even would ask for advice on some of my plants to save them from dying in the summer heat. We also let her use my car which we felt comfortable leaving with her because we saw how careful she drove another house sitters car when she came the day before. She was willing to sign an agreement with us before hand, we had her covered on our insurance and she assured us she would only use it for the grocery store and places that were too far away. You could tell she took good care of the car and I think she even cleaned it! When we came home the house was so clean and well maintained. My plants were thriving and so were the cats! They were quiet and purring when we came home which was a sign that they were very happy. Nora is just a really good person to have in your home. You can tel she really loves animals and cares about your home and your animals well being. She even reconnected a dog she saw roaming around with their rightful owner. That is very telling of her personality. We highly recommend Nora and hope one day we can have her visit again!

Katelyn was a great house sitter. She and Stan were quiet and respectful, they communicated about the pets, and left the house spotless. Would recommend.

Carol was a great Housesitter! She cared for Iris as if she were her own and always kept me updated on how she was doing. I came back to a super tidy house and clean sheets on the bed which was so nice after being delayed for a while on my way home. Carol is a pro pet and housesitter and I could not recommend her more for any upcoming travels you may have, your pet is safe with her!

I was very happy with Mehrnoush's stay - she was friendly, helpful, good with my cat Ollie, and left everything in perfect condition. She was here for three weeks, and she sent me plenty of updates, so I felt confident that things were fine.

Caitlin and Jason provided terrific care of my place and cat. They communicated easily and regularly, sending plenty updates and pictures. When I arrived home my apartment was clean and my cat was happy. I gladly recommend them.

Sarah took such a good care of our house and cats during the rare winter storm in LA. The kitties were so relaxed when we got home and the house was well kept and clean, even took care of outdoor furnitures to avoid damage from the storm. We were so happy to have her at the house and highly recommend her to anyone!

We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention. He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!

Rose was great. They were super flexible and patient in our drop off and pick up. Rose was incredibly trustworthy and reliable with my little one. I particularly appreciated Rose's calm and settled manner, which my dog needs. I never had to worry. On top of the pet care, my home looked like no one had been here. Rose took great care of everything. I highly recommend.

Franka and her sister Nina came and took such excellent care of Lola and Eddie. Franka was so upbeat and happy to be here. She was communicative and capable and great with the kitties. Being senior cats and needing meds, Lola and Eddie need a little more tlc and love. Franka and Nina were just that. We came home to a spotless house and a sweet treat and thoughtful note! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

Antonia and Leo are the best-case-scenario zeewoi. In addition to listening carefully, and reading our instructions, they clearly had a great time with our dogs. They enjoyed our home and left it as friends would. They were communicative and accessible throughout the stay, There were absolutely no hitches to this stay. We would have them back anytime. 

Sherry is a ray of sunshine in our home while we we are away. I appreciate her daily updates to let me know how things were going and love that she keeps in close communication with any questions about the pets or the house. The dogs really have grown quite attached to Sherry and received great care, exercise, and lots of love and attention. We will always welcome Sherry back for future sits!
