Dog Sitters in Shokan, NY

Faultless; Julie communicated excellently with us, took care of our two rescue dogs brilliantly, kept the house clean and tidy, and caused us absolutely zero concern our whole trip!

I left my 2 cherished old kitties with Alix for 6 weeks and felt assured they’d be in good hands after Alix stopped by to meet us. Alix sent photos which clearly showed how comfortable they were with her. She reminded me when supplies needed reordering in a timely way. The apartment was neat and clean when I got home and the kitties were groomed, relaxed, and happy. Strongly recommend. Thank you Alix!

Janet was a great Housesitter. Once again with this site, we feel like we hit the jackpot by having her take care of things for us. Janet was easygoing, pleasant, flexible, and accommodating of our needs. She was very responsible and took initiative regarding the yard, the pool, and the dogs. We would recommend Janet without hesitation.

Elizabeth was truly the best!!! Friendly, kind, and a pleasure to work with. She went on hikes daily with Finn, something we really valued as finn is a high energy hunting dog. She sent photos of their adventures and gave us a detailed daily updates. For being the first time we left him that long, we were at ease knowing they were both in her hands! She is obviously experienced in caring for animals and I would recommend her to anyone. Cherry on top - she took great care of our home. She took the time to clean the bedding and tidy things up so when we came home after a long day of traveling, we could crawl straight into bed! She goes above & beyond!

Pete was a very reliable, animal-loving petsitter. I received regular updates about the well-being of my pets. My house was left behind clean and tidy. I hope that he can come back another time for petsitting.

Meghan was literally the perfect cat- and house-sitter. She was a pleasure to communicate with, listened to us carefully, was extremely responsible, left our home in pristine condition and, MOST IMPORTANT, loved our sweet senior cat!! She took such great care of Robbie and if he was a little sad to see us come in the door instead of Meghan, we do not blame him. Thanks so much Meghan!! The three of us hope to see you again.

Ana was a perfect sitter! We loved getting to know her and Piero was enamored by her sparky personality. When we launch our ship, We want Ana to be our first mate! We (Joel, Monica and Pier)already miss her!

Of this lovely couple, Jon is the one that stayed the duration of the sit and was absolutely terrific with Allie and Flash, and was an overall terrific person to work with throughout my time away. Jon has a terrific sense of humor and communicated extremely well to ensure I had a high level of confidence that everyone was doing well. Jon also went above and beyond when he helped me out when I extended my trip unexpectedly. Another Zeewoi came in before I returned and Jon oriented her to the care routine for Allie and Flash! That handoff went off without a hitch and Allie and Flash were doing marvelously once I returned home. If you want a worry-free time away from your pets, Jon will be awesome with your pets and will make sure you know all is well!

While it's nice to have someone at the house while the owners are away, the most important thing for pet owners is someone to care for their pets. If I could give Elvira 10 stars for loving my dog and giving her special attention, I would! Elvira also texted me with daily photos and comments about the "walkies" my dog enjoyed. Plus, Elvira took on the additional task of conveying my dog to the groomer, and afterwards dosing her with flea/tick medication and a heartworm pill. Elvira and my dog look forward to seeing each other again, probably next spring when Elvira thinks she'll be back in the area.

I have no reservations recommending Natalie as someone to help look after your house and pets. Aside from the concrete things necessary for a good sitter -- arriving at the time she said she could (mine was a very last-minute sitting request, so this piece could have been a challenge), being self-sufficient, taking care to keep things tidy, and enjoying spending time with (in my case) our dog -- Natalie is a lovely person and I'm happy to have met her. I could not return until about 8:30 pm, so she stayed over for that night and even took care of my dog's nighttime going-outside needs and fed her early in the morning so that I was able to get a really good night's sleep after chaperoning a group of 12 kids for two nights! We had time to talk and learn a little more about each other before she went on her way. Like Mary Poppins!

I invited Jacklynn back to sit for me again and once again couldn’t be happier! She sent pics often and I came back to a tidy apartment and happy cats. Will be inviting her back again!

Gladys was an ideal house sitter! She talked to me on the phone and even visited before the stay to get a feel for each other and so I could introduce her to my kitty. She was communicative before and during the stay, sending me photos and updates as requested. She left the house so clean it was almost like no one was even here and my kitty was a happy camper which tells me a lot! I would have Gladys back any time!
