Dog Sitters in Hurley, NY

Laura and Eric were fantastic house-sitters: very communicative, friendly and tidy. They looked after the flat very well and sent regular updates about my cat Merry. Everything was smooth and easy, meaning I could go on holiday safe in the knowledge the flat and the cat were in their capable hands. They even left me some beautiful gifts when they left. Thank you both. Highly recommend!

Angela was delightful to communicate with, and I loved that she sent pics regularly and obviously enjoyed taking care of my furballs. They seemed happy upon my return, and I could tell that they were well cared for and content. I'd recommend her wholeheartedly!!

This was the second time Kasey and Maya have watched my pets, and it went just as smoothly as the first! My two cats seemed very happy upon my return home and the place looked pretty much just as I left it. Thanks again Kasey!

Corinne took excellent care of our pet and our home. She easily befriended our very shy bunny and provided us with fun and frequent updates. We returned to a spotless home. I feel very lucky that Corinne was able to sit for us and would be very happy to have her stay again!

Meri was lovely. Punctual, communicative and clean. I really appreciated that she sent me videos and photos of Riley while I was away missing her. And she was also very self-sufficient. I hope she comes to visit again.

Thuy and her mother were perfect houseguests and pet sitters. They were extremely sweet and knowledgeable. I trusted them, and  my dog was very comfortable with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone! They watered the flowers, they cleans everything they use, and after the house in a tidy orderly fashion. Our dog, Beth, clearly was well cared for. Sent me a pictures of their outings and playing ball in the yard. She cuddled with her on the couch. We were away for three nights, and Beth looked wonderful when we arrived home. She seemed calm and happy .  Thuy communicated when she would arrive and when she was leaving the house and 

This was my second time having Danika stay, and it was once again a pleasure for me but especially for my cat! Would highly recommend - she’s wonderful with animals, reliable and communicates according to your preferences, and took perfect care of my home and also my car. Thank you ✨

Shelley is a dangerous and incompetent housesitter. She should never be entrusted with anything more valuable than a houseplant. Her pet care was terrible. On the 2nd day she left our 2 dogs outside in the backyard, unattended on a 83-degree hot, humid summer day with no water for 90 minutes while she left our home to go out for a walk. We saw this on our Ring camera and immediately reported this to zeewoi (full complaint currently under investigation) and let her know directly how concerning this was for us. Not only was it unsafe to leave the dogs outside while she left the home, but it also went against clear instructions that were communicated to her in person during the handover and in writing about what to do with the dogs anytime she left our home. She repeatedly had trouble following basic instructions that were communicated verbally, in writing and in text reminders. She was incapable of following basic pet care requirements. We asked that only one of our 2 dogs be walked once a day (I did not want her walking the other stronger dog, because during the handover we went on a walk together and Shelley DROPPED our dog's leash). We use Fi collars, so we know that over the course of 11 days, Shelley brought our dog for only 4 walks. We did a phone interview with Shelley and never did she inform us that our medium sized, 40 pound dogs would be too much for her to walk. Additionally, Shelley traveled with her sister who clearly is unwell (likely dementia or some sort of developmental disability) and also was afraid and nervous around dogs. She never informed us of this, and it was clearly a huge safety issue. Shelley's sister let our INDOOR cat out multiple times (at least 4 times are seen on outside cameras). Sometimes our cat was left outside for 20+ minutes without Shelley or her sister realizing. This is so, so dangerous- we are on a main street with a lot of traffic. We are lucky our cat didn't get lost or killed under her "care." Shelley and her sister left our home in a terrible, and honestly gross and unsanitary, condition. A paper bag with human feces was found in our bathroom and made the entire 2nd floor of the house stink for days. The rug in my office was covered with urine- which makes me wonder if she locked my dogs in this room for extended periods of time. Our dogs are fully house trained and have never had any potty accidents. The kitchen was filled with flies, milk had been spilled in the refrigerator and never cleaned up (a gross film had formed by the time we got home). The blender was put away in the cabinet unclean. The recycle bin was filled with dirty trash- so much so that we got a notice from the city. She carelessly used metal utensils and scratched our Le Creuset dutch oven (which will now void its lifetime guarantee). Three brand new bars of soap were taken from our home, like they were some sort of hotel amenity. Shelley went into our basement storage freezer (which she had NO need to access) and took home 3 gallon bags (about 20lbs) of frozen tomatoes I had harvested before our trip from our garden. When I addressed this with her, she claimed her sister packed them by accident (which, if true, & your sister is so unwell that she's packing things from someone's home that are NOT HERS, she should not be allowed to travel with you). However, I don't believe that's the case- 20 pounds of tomatoes aren't really something that just sneaks by your consciousness- it's A LOT of tomatoes. Shelley was offended I accused her of stealing, but that's what she did. She ultimately returned them, knowing full well she was in the wrong. I'm not sure what else she might have taken from our home, as I didn't think I needed to take an inventory of our belongings and supplies before we left. Ultimately the sit ended when our one of our dogs ate some of a marijuana plant in the backyard (she had never shown interest before and we did not know the plant- with no flowers on it- was dangerous). We do not blame Shelley for that (even though it was probably from a time the dogs were not adequately supervised in the backyard); having the plant where dogs could access was our mistake, and one that will never be made again. The part that is extremely concerning is that it took Shelley nearly 2 hours to get our dog to the emergency vet from discovering the first symptoms (she first texted me at 6:26pm that our dog was unwell and "having seizures" and did not leave for the hospital until 8:12pm). And I am certain she never called the zeewoi vet emergency line. She eventually reached out to my mother (our emergency contact while we were in Europe) and my mom told her to go to the vet ER immediately. Afterwards Shelley stated via message, "I cried, prayed & hugged her throughout the incident." So, instead of getting prompt medical care for our dog (emergency vet was clearly listed in our printed out home instructions), she prayed for her. Unhelpful, incompetent and incredibly dangerous. I'm not sure how she has previous good reviews. We were shocked by the incompetency and complete inability to understand and follow simple, clear directions- there are, sadly, many more examples I could include here. We are grateful our girls survived having her stay in our home. I would hope no one else ever has to deal with such a horror. To finish things off, disapproving of the legal marijuana plant in the backyard and probably of our rainbow flag displayed on the front of the house, Shelley texted "You need prayers. Find a Bible based church to go to and get healed. I pray for your soul."

Danielle & John were incredible! They were very communicative before & during the stay. We had to adjust our dates a bit and they were extremely flexible & worked with us on it. Not only were they consistently sending pictures of our Bernese mountain dog, Calvin but even took him on a couple adventures with them over the weekend which we so appreciated! When we returned home the house was just as we had left it and Calvin was as happy as can be! We would definitely invite them to stay again in the future.

Kimberly and family were such wonderful pet and housesitters! We were able to relax and enjoy our trip without worry. They kept our cats happy and healthy and took great care of our home. We would love to have them back!

Sam and Miguel are outstanding house and pet sitters! They took great care of my dog, including doing a consult with my vet when she seemed a little sick. I came home to a house and yard that were in better shape than when I left it! I would highly recommend Sam and Miguel. They are kind, compassionate and take their responsibilities to your pet and your home very seriously. I'm hoping to get them back for another sit in the future!

Lizzie was such a pleasure. The dogs adored her. She effortlessly blended into their routine, she took great care of them and my house. She has great attention to detail. It was so obvious the dogs loved her and thrived while we were away. I think they miss her!!! I would highly recommend this amazing young lady.
