Dog Sitters in West Hurley, NY

My puppy and I really enjoyed our package of 6 training sessions for learning basic obedience. Kristine is a very skilled teacher for both dogs and humans, which made training fun and effective. I really liked the one on one sessions, which helped us make quick progress. I will definitely return in the future, and appreciate having a strong foundation of basic skills to build on with my dog. Thanks, Kristine!

I worked with Kristine years ago before she had this business and I am thrilled to be bringing my new dog to her for training. Kristine has vast knowledge of dog behavior and is a wonderful teacher for both the dog and the owner. So appreciate that she is in this area and providing such excellent services in a clean, well-maintained space.

This is going to be a long review, so buckle up: I rescued/ adopted a male Labrador mix that had no previous training or proper socialization. He had way too much energy, that made him hyper, destructive and unable to be safe around my other female dog. Kristine listened to me, my concerns about him and made sure both my dogs were safe. We first spoke over the phone, and then scheduled a 1:1 meeting where she made sure to get to know my dog and advice right away on what to do. My dog ended up doing two months of personalized training at their training facility where my female dog joined too for 3 weeks, so Kristine and her husband worked with her and both of them to ensure play time was safe. My dog is now house trained, follows a routine that works for him, is able to go on walks, tolerates car rides, plays with my other dog well, doesn't have hyper energy, follows basic commands, loves to do all that and above all: we understand him and his needs. This was super important to me because giving him up was not an option to consider. Kristine's routines, training, advice and patience were just what my family needed and we are forever thankful to have come across her Instagram page.

Kristine is awesome. We came to her at a desperate time for our family. Our dog Bernie has been acting out since our son was born, adding stress to an already stressful time. So we signed him up for a 3 week board & train and it was a great decision. He's a mix of multiple challenging breeds. But Kristine was able to get to the root of some of his behavioral problems and come up with solutions specific to his needs. She took the time to meet with us regularly and go over everything so that we could continue his training when he came home. She even drove out to Shandaken to do a home visit afterwards to ensure everything was going smoothly. Really can't say enough good things about her, our family is operating much more smoothly now!

I genuinely cannot not recommend Daley Obedience enough!! Kristine has truly been a blessing in understanding my rescue and has worked tirelessly with us to find new approaches to countless issues. 6 months after adopting a pitbull I realized we needed someone with some serious professional experience to help us with a variety of issues- from very basic obedience to more complex issues. I have also had a phenomenal experience boarding my dog while traveling. While I am so appreciative for my dog to have learned an array of skills that I couldn’t have done on my own, I’m even more grateful to have found a trainer who will get to know you and your dog, help you find confidence as a pet owner and constantly find new ways to tackle any obstacle you and your dog may struggle with. Stella and I always look forward to our training sessions. If I could give 6 stars I would!

We have been so very happy we found Kristine at Daley Obedience! She is extremely reliable and kind to our flock of pups and a wonderful person. We are worry warts and she is very solid, meticulous and knowledgeable with her dog care yet checks in with us if something is different with them which is highly appreciated. It’s always a great sign when your dogs are excited to see their walker and they adore her. We really lucked out to find Kristine and would recommend her highly! 🌈🌈🌈🌈

Amazing! Incredible! Gets Results! I have had dogs for most of my life, mostly German Shepherds. I adopted a Shepherd six months ago and was cautioned that he was not socialized to both people or other dogs. Having experience in training dogs I attempted to socialize him myself. It was a complete disaster. I then hired a different trainer than Kristine who basically couldn’t handle my dog and made me think this beautiful dog was hopeless. I saw Daley’s Obedience card at the vet’s office and felt I had nothing to lose so I called her. She was very professional and scheduled an appointment to evaluate the dog. He was his usual aggressive self and I could barely control him. I waited for Kristine to tell me he was beyond saving but instead told me give her some sessions and he would be a completely different dog. All I can say is the change of behavior in my dog was nothing short of miraculous. She completely modified his behavior. He went from trying to eat Kristine’s husband and partner Mark into a playful and obedient dog. My advice is don’t waste your time and money on a trainer who is incompetent. My dog might have ended up in the pound, and possibly put down, if it wasn’t for Kristine. I would give her 100 stars if I could. She’s welcome to give my number to anyone who wants it.

Christine Daley is an absolutely unbelievable dog trainer and has transformed my two unruly boxer dogs (that no friends or family wanted to be around) (1.5 and 2 years old), into two wonderful family dogs, able to hangout with guests, including small children without fear that their exuberant personalities will dominate the gathering or that they will unintentionally injure someone with their excessive jumping. Christine is patient with both the dogs and the owners with a proven track record. She helped me to reframe a lot of the misconceptions I had about dogs and dominance, which has changed our relationship with our dogs in such a positive way. We can't thank her enough for all she has done for our dogs and I should also mention that her prices are exceptionally affordable. The value you receive is second to none. Thank you Christine!

I would NOT recommend this place. I had a puppy training appt and Kristine was very rude right off the bat. She seemed to dislike that I had an Australian labradoodle, and particular kind of labradoodle that she was unfamiliar with, and when I told her that his breed is supposed to be intelligent and make good family dogs she said, and I quote, "Ok, I have to roll my eyes at that" and then proceeded to lecture me in a condescending manner on how that can't be known about a breed and that I really needed to be educated on that. I was taken aback and I said so. I said that her comment made me feel uncomfortable and condescended and talked down to. She snapped back that I was too sensitive and I should basically leave. So I did and told her that her comment was unprofessional and rude. She continued to place the blame on me being "too sensitive". If you have feelings and prefer to be treated respectfully then this place might not be for you. It was a huge bummer. She seems to have an attitude problem and perhaps just hates doodles and people with doodles? Idk but it sucked.

We've been bringing our dog to Kristine for daycare and for boarding for the last 6 months, and we've been super pleased! We came to Dailey Obedience after trying another daycare in the area and finding that our dog came home over-exhausted and overstimulated after an unstructured day of being constantly surrounded by other dogs. With Daley Obedience, our dog Simon comes home from daycare and from boarding fulfilled, relaxed, and clean. He tends to get overstimulated easily, so Kristine is cautious about matching him with other dogs of similar play style. When no dogs are available, she makes sure to provide him with other enriching/confidence building activities. We appreciate knowing he also has the opportunity to sleep/relax in a safe space during his periods of downtime. The dog's review is worth something as well. He is eager to get upstairs and see Kristine whenever we drop him off!

What a smart, effective, generous trainer Doreen is. It’s not just that she’s so clearly knowledgeable and experienced, but that she really took the time to understand the interplay between Boo, our pup, and us as his people (we needed training too). And she brings a wonderful balance of firmness and love to the training sessions. Boo is a rescue with a lot of southern hound in him. He’s VERY puppy but Doreen’s approach has worked wonders for all of us. We can’t recommend her highly enough.

Doreen was very helpful with my yellow Labrador Josie. She gave clear instructions and showed me simple and direct ways to use them. Her methods are as much for the owner as for the dog! I would recommend her to anyone who needs training for their dog.

Taking lessons with Doreen has been the best thing we could have done for ourselves and our pup. We and Bear have learned so much in only a few lessons it’s been tremendous. Doreen has been amazing to watch interact with Bear - he just understood what she wanted very quickly and we were able to follow up on those instructions. We absolutely recommend Doreen and Angel Paw Dog Training. We found Doreen to be extremely kind, gentle, respectful but firm and above all completely in tune with Bear so that while working on one command if it turned into learning about another one we addressed that also. We are so glad we did this. I think Bear enjoyed it too! Thank you Doreen!

Doreen has a true passion for animals. Her patient ways, focus and dedication to training results in wonderful pets. She first trained our beloved Frisco. He was just amazingly well behaved, understanding verbal commands and hand commands—and we could take him anywhere even though he was a large dog. We then asked her to train our rescue pups (brother and sister). They too are beloved members of our family and we always get compliments on how well they behave. We could not have done it without Doreen. They are all large dogs that needed training. It was the best decisions to hire a professional that knew the right techniques for each of the dogs. We will always be grateful. Doreen has a gift and we are the lucky ones that get to enjoy that gift because we get well behaved dogs that become very special members of our family.

Doreen is by far the best Dog Trainer of all time! Doreen has infinite patience for her four-legged students as well as the two legged owner, in my case, needed more training than the dog!Beyoncé’s is a sweet miniature poodle puppy who was in need of guidance and consistency which Doreen gave us and she has grown up to be the sweetest pup! We also have an elderly mixed breed who also learned quite a bit from Doreen! She has infinite patience with Beyoncé, as well as Charlie her elderly counterpart. They learned how to sit, stay, etc all the basics and we also received tips and recommendations concerning house training and also basic day-to-day behavior concerning the dogs getting along. Doreen was there every step of the way, and still is. If I have questions concerning how to proceed with Beyoncé‘s training or behavior Doreen is the expert I reach out to!

It had been a long time since we’d dealt with a young puppy. When we brought Maia home, we fast felt overwhelmed. Doreen came in and, with simple but effective solutions, took the stress away. Maia is 11 months now, and not without her challenges, but getting things right in those early days made all the difference, to set us up for success. I strongly recommend anyone with a new pup work with Doreen.

We did a dog training cram course via YouTube university in the two weeks before our new puppy Archie arrived. We were prepared... on paper. As per the 3-3-3 rule, after three weeks with us our docile rescue pup suddenly turned into a velociraptor/land shark. He was still sweet & we were glad he wasn't scared any more, but also overwhelmed & unsure whether any of our chairs & clothes would survive his adolescence. We were smart. We called Doreen. At our introductory training session, we learned even more than Archie did. Doreen provided us with a framework upon which we can build a deeper relationship with our dog while helping him learn to listen & build impulse control. We all still have a lot to learn, but now we know how to go about it & whenever we get stuck again, we know who to call. Thank you, Doreen! You changed everything for the better.

Words cannot describe how grateful I am with the training Doreen gave to both me and my 3 1/2 year old chocolate Lab Jeter. I literally was unable to walk this 92 pound pup. Since working with Angel Paw we enjoy our walks so much and Jeter enjoys socializing with other dogs. Calling Doreen a dog whisper is and understatement. Her ability to read Jeter’s signals, body language and mindset is truly amazing. I highly recommend Angel Paws and I know you will be very happy with the results

Doreen's knowledge of dogs- their instincts, their behaviors, combined with (maybe as a result of)her overwhelming love of them makes her an invaluable resource if you want to have the best relationship with your k9 you can have! I thought I had a good understanding of my pup but Doreen provided so much great insight. It was as if I was viewing my pup under a 40 watt bulb, and she unscrewed it gave me a 100 watt!! A lot of "ah-ha" moments, even for an old school know it all like me!! Highly recommend!!

Doreen was truly an angel! Her knowledge and experience was so helpful to us. Through basic sit , stay to create training, she was supportive and understanding. Our pup loved his visits! Thank you Doreen for helping us raise a wonderful fur baby.

I cant say enough good things about Saugerties Dog care! Im a repeat customer now and it is such a blessing to have someone that I can trust with my (fur) baby!

He gets to play with Lucy and we like to think of it as a little staycation for Bub. Gary and Paige are so kind and professional to work with. On my last trip I needed to stay an extra day and they were able to accommodate me last minute. I dont know how they do it!! 🐾❤️

Gary is a great person. Whether you're looking for pet sitting, dog walking, or dog training- your dog will be treated like family :)

He is very adapting schedule wise if you are wanting or needing to keep your pets on a set schedule. Anything you are needing he can make happen, and as a bonus your dog/dogs may have learned new tricks in the meantime with his training while he's watching them!"

Linda and her team are awesome. My dog loves it when they come to "visit" her! It puts my mind at ease to have some I trust come into my house and take care of my puppy when I need it. Linda has been very accommodating to my changing schedule. We are very happy with the service, love that we can request walking services right online with her online calendar. Highly recommend Luckipups.

Linda is the best! She loves her work and she definitely falls in love with her clients fur babies. I would recommend Linda to anyone who is looking for a professional, trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I trust her with my most precious possession and I've never been disappointed or had to worry. We love Luckipups Pet Sitting!

Lin's awesome. She's the best. 10 out of 10 stars, five isn't enough....

Linda is truly bighearted and an exceptional dog walker! We have contacted her last minute, change and cancelled walks and she is always understanding, professional and kind. We feel lucky to have her take care of your three crazy pups!

Linda is amazing! She nursed my kitty back to health when I was away on vacation. She’s professional, truly loves animals, and goes that extra mile. I was able to enjoy my time away because of Luckipups

Linda runs her business with love. She is very communicative, responsive, and wonderfully reliable. Best pet sitter I've ever had.

Linda is the best! She is so caring with her animals and truly is someone you can trust.

The Pugs are happy when I go to work because the get their visit from Luckipups! 😃 Thanks to Linda and Lisa for taking such great care of my kids! …

Linda is phenomenal with our dog and making appointments is super easy. I highly recommend Luckipups.

They do an excellent job. Linda is a very sweet woman.

Dawn’s Dog Boarding is an excellent choice for giving your dogs a safe and structured environment when you are away. Dawn is a clear communicator and what really impressed us is the care and attention to detail in the information she collects about the specific preferences your dog has do she can give them an exceptional and thoughtful experience when they are in her care. Her fenced yard and cozy places to lay inside gave us peace of mind when we trusted Dawn with the care and feeding of our guys, zeke and Quince.

There is only one place I would take a dog I own. Dawn's Dog Boarding is the type of business that clearly loves what they do. The level of care and attention dogs receive is unprecedented. I know that when I bring Oona to Dawn's, she is going to have a really nice stay and come home tired and happy. I have known Dawn for over 30 years and I can say that she is responsible, loving and experienced. These are things that pet owners want from the place they leave their beloved animals. Check out Dawn's Boarding. There is a reason she keeps winning all of the awards and accolades!!!

Our dog Biscuit seems very at home when she stays at Dawn's Dog Boarding. We can see this through the photos shared and observing her being completely relaxed when she returns home. The setting is clean, provides plenty of exercise and good TLC. Dawn and her staff keep our dog safe by introducing her to the pack in small groups when she arrives and matching her with similar energy levels for her stay. We have many choices for dog boarding in our area and from experience we know that choosing Dawn's Dog Boarding is the best choice for our dog.

Our 5 year old dog has been staying with Dawn since he was a puppy - it is his home away from home! Dawn looks after all the pups as if they were her own, and they gets lots of love and attention, all while enjoying time and space in the beautiful Hudson Valley. I could not recommend Dawn more highly!

Dawn took great care of my dog when we were out of the country for 10 days. I knew he would be well loved and cared for, and that gave us so much peace of mind so we could enjoy our vacation. We'll definitely leave our dog with Dawn again. Highly recommenc!

We've brought our small dog to Dawn about 3 times now, for up to a week, and she's absolutely our go-to person for this. She tends to the dogs like they were her own children, I'd say. No cages here - just big open spaces and socializing.

Dawn is amazing! She and her crew take such wonderful care of my pup Love whenever I am away. Highly recommended!

I did not know about Dawn until a few days ago. I ran in to a big problem as I was staying with family as I had an emergency and my family loved my dog but the landlord says that dogs are not aloud do to insurance so my family was told my dog had to go or they had to go. My family helped me by asking everyone they knew if they could take my dog then I was looking for a dog boarding near me and I found Dawn. I called her and left a message and she called me back in a quick amount of time. I explained to her what was going on and because she was on her way out the door for the day to meet up with friends she could not take my dog that night. Dawn did let me bring my dog the next morning. I was late getting to her and she understood. My sweet Hazel got to be around other dogs and got a lot of exercise. I would recommend her to all. Dawn gave me some information that I did not know and she gave me very good information. I will be using her again when I need a spot for my sweet Hazel to go when she can not be with us her loving family. Thank You for all you do for my sweet Hazel and all the other dogs as well. I would give you more stars as I feel that 5 stars are not enough as you are way more then 5 stars.

We love Dawns Dog Boarding! It’s like bringing our dogs to family members! We trust her and will always bring Pandora and Mystic to her! Goddess Blessings Charmaine and Steve Armatas

Our dog stayed with Dawn while we were at a wedding in the area and it was perfect! Dawn is so sweet and our pup had a great time.

Morgan and Nick have been caring for my kitty when we are out of town. They are reliable and thorough. Most importantly, they love and understand animals. Morgan has also been working with me to care for my very difficult dog, and her understanding and input have been invaluable. On top of their professionalism and competence, they are truly nice people. Highly recommend without reservation.

Morgan and Nick are wonderful with my 3 dogs! My pups love them, and I am comforted knowing I can trust them completely to take great care of them when I have to be away. I appreciate them sending pics and updates, and keeping the house tidy, especially cleaning up after these dogs! I Highly recommend them!

Roxie, my highly energetic one year old Pitbull loves Morgan! I love Morgan bc she always arrives on time, is very calm & patient with my dog, extremely knowledgable about good dog care, always sends photos and let's me know what my girl is doing when I'm away on a trip. I'm so grateful I found Morgan bc I know Roxie is in good hands with her care. She also practices positive dog training. I trust Morgan with Roxie 100%.

My experience with Morgan and Compassionate Pet Care has been great. Morgan took the time needed for my fearfull dog, Homer to get to know her. It’s been 2 years and Morgan is a trusted partner in Homers life. She has the skills to work with him, even when unanticipated events arise. She keeps in touch when caring for him and adds to his care. We are very lucky to have connected with her!

I just had Morgan and Nick care for my 2 furbabies this past week for the first time. They were reliable and responsive. They asked questions whenever they weren’t sure of something which I was super happy about! They sent lots of pictures and made me feel at ease leaving my babies. Will definitely have them back again!!

Morgan is the best of the best when it comes to pet sitting. Morgan does drop in visits for our two dogs and I trust no one more. With a strong knowledge of animal behavior and care, and a passion for animals, I feel we get more than just a pet sitter when Morgan comes for a visit with our precious dogs. I never have to worry about their safety or care as I always know they will be treated as if they were her own.

I love Morgan! She’s dependable, honest and always on time. She’s so patient with my kitties and they love and trust her! So glad to have found her 😻 …

Morgan has cared for our 2 cats several times while we were out of town. She provides excellent care, is very responsible and goes above and beyond with spending extra time with our nervous kitties. Best of all, she always sends us photos so we can see how they are doing. This means a lot, especially to my son who misses them so much while we are away. I cannot recommend Morgan highly enough!

We had a great experience with Morgan caring for our elderly dog. We needed an extra hand to take him out during the day and she was patient and compassionate. She responds quick to any messages or concerns and has a great disposition. We highly recommend her services.

So thankful to have found Morgan as our pet sitter. Morgan is reliable and responsible, and does a great job of taking care of our two kitties. We always get a status on how each visit went and get great photos of the kitties. I highly recommend Morgan’s services.

Becca is awesome — highly recommend. My wife, son, and I were visiting the area and staying in an Airbnb with two boxers. We had been taking turns watching the dogs and visiting local attractions, hiking, etc. but we wanted a little time together with all three of us to do an activity without the pups. We can’t board them because they aren’t well-behaved enough around other dogs; and while they are fine when we leave them alone together in our house, we didn’t want to do that while we are guests in an Airbnb. Becca came over to meet the dogs and they were fast friends! She took care of them for a few hours, send pics and videos to reassure us that they were happy and in good hands, and was altogether a delight to work with. Here are some pics shortly after (doggos happy and tired out from socializing). We plan to call Becca again the next time we’re in town!

Becca is an extremely reliable pet sitter. We asked her to come daily to feed our kitties, and she came every day as promised and took care of everything they needed. I highly recommend her.

Becca is very thorough, caring and conscientious. She took excellent care of our pets while we were away. I have zero worries about leaving our babies in her care. I know she cares about animals just as much as we do. Would highly recommend.

Your search for a pet sitter should end with Becca! My partner and I hired her to take care of our dogs during our wedding/honeymoon and could not be happier with the care she provided. When we first met Becca, we only had one dog, but by the time our wedding came around we had rescued another. Both of them took some time to get to know Becca/be comfortable with her, but she came by weekly up until our wedding to walk them, get to know them and bond with them. Soon enough they both absolutely loved her and we are so thankful for her commitment to animals and her job which made that possible. Becca truly understands animals and cares for others pets as if they are her own. Her care is patient, intuitive, loving, gentle, and knowledgable. She even taught our dogs a few things! If you are someone who wants updates on your pets while Becca cares for them (she respectfully asks if you do or do not want updates), then you'll be thrilled with her ability to send frequent text, video, and photo updates while she is with your animals. We never had to worry or wonder how our dogs were doing and what they were up to because Becca updated us regularly during her entire almost 2 week stay at our place. We could tell from these updates that our two dogs were so happy and calm with Becca. One of our dogs was having some separation anxiety/stomach problems, and was pooping inside/stress chewing walls. Becca was nothing but compassionate about this and happy to do her best to not only comfort our dog, but to take care of cleaning up as well. Whether you are looking for someone to care for your pets daily, during a trip, or just here and there - book Becca! You will not be disappointed, and more importantly, neither will your pets. Lastly, her pricing is fair. However, finding someone who we trust completely with our dogs, who are our children, is priceless. Thank you Becca!!!! <3

I HIGHLY recommend Becca’s Happy Paws Pet Care. I have two older ladies 15 and 16 years old. One has severe separation anxiety and the other only likes me and my husband. Becca came to do a meet and greet and both girls were so comfortable with her! We went away for 6 days and every visit I got a video and an update from Becca. Each video with both girls purring and totally at ease. We arrived home last night and these ladies were both completely happy, relaxed and comfortable. I just can’t say enough about Becca, she is a gem and she will treat your pets as if they are her own. Thank you Becca!

Becca has taken care of our two cats several times when we've been out of town, and she's been amazing each time. We get updates with photos and videos on each visit, and she clearly cares deeply about the happiness and wellbeing of the pets she's caring for. I definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a great pet sitter!

We were traveling for the first time since moving to a new area and needed someone to take care of our cat for the week. Becca was awesome! Very professional and communicative. She sent us photos and videos every day, and we felt completely comfortable having her in our home. We will definitely be using Becca's Happy Paws Pet Care again in the future when we travel!

Becca is exceptional with customer service and her love for our pets (dogs and cows!). She gave us a peace of mind during our vacation. Our pets love her. She did an overnight and 2 day visits. She is extremely communicative with photo and video updates, clean, respectful and detailed. She goes above and beyond!

Becca is great! We used her services for the first time this week, to care for our two dogs and 4 cats while we were away. Her communication is top notch, and the pets were all happy and healthy upon our return. Photos and videos each visit. We have an elderly dog with health problems and she took perfect care of him (and the other pets too!) Truly professional. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

I recently engaged Becca to look after my cats and was thoroughly impressed by her diligence , professionalism, communication and most of all by her love of the animals . She exudes compassion and joy with them and they responded very well to her. Both animals take meds and she adeptly managed it. Plus the photos / videos she sends settle any owner’s anxiety . I highly recommend her .

I've used other pet care services in the past & I can tell you they are by far the best! They go above & beyond every single time. Beyond pleased with how well my furrbabies have been taken care of

They answered my call within a very short time. My dogs love her and she clearly loves animals! Her prices very reasonable and they are very reliable! Thank you, for you helping my family!

Life Savers! We were stranded in the city and it was pouring rain at home. I texted with an emergency and they immediately went to my house and picked up my dog in the pouring rain and let her sleep over. Nice people all around!

I have known Karrin from Elite Pet Care Services since 1996. She is very trustworthy and loves animals from as long as I can remember!! I would trust her with my pet anytime!!!

Wonderful compassionate reliable care. Two of our dogs have been loved and cared for by this family. A second home !!

Great dog watching service, 3x a day playful and attentive visits, demonstrates a genuine care and love for our dogs! Would highly recommend!

Can I say lifesaver? I needed someone to walk my dogs for a couple days because I was gonna be out of town for work. I am entirely pleased with this service and all at last minute notice. Thank you so much.

Been working with her for years. She's extremely reliable & professional. Can always count on her. Highly recommended

Pleasant, efficient and exudes a love for animals. She went above and beyond our expectations.

Dawg Dayz has been my savior. I feel comfortable leaving for vacation knowing the dogs are well taken care of and loved.

Cipriana is the best. We always try to make our family trips pet friendly but sometimes it just doesn’t work. But I always feel better though know our pups have the next best thing when they are with Cipriana. I recommend her to everyone who is looking for a true pet lover that is trustworthy and dedicated to giving the best care for my dogs when I can not.

Cipriana has been fantastic from day one. She's been professional and accommodating to my crazy schedule. Most importantly one of my cats is diabetic and Cipriana is well versed in giving my ornery cat his insulin shots. I highly recommend her.

10/10 would recommend! Cipriana is hands down the most dedicated to what she does. Dog Training: Cipriana has experience with pet dog training, service dog training, working / sport dog training, and trick training. She is also a CGC evaluator, meaning she can administer canine good citizen exams. Accommodating to your schedule, Cipriana provides relationship based dog training that focuses on the dynamic between you and your furry friend to help address problem behaviors. Check-ins / House-sittings: Cipriana gives her pet clients the same love and attention they would get from their owners, if not better. I know a LOT of animal lovers, but none as driven for their well-being and happiness as Cipriana. If your pet has special needs, she's got you covered there as well, as she has vast experiences with senior pets and younger pets that are deaf, blind, diabetic, have cancer, and other disabilities. If you need someone to do check-ins or house-sittings, give Cipriana a shout!

Cipriana is wonderful! We have a lot of cats and each time that we have had Cipriana take care of them for us she has done a spectacular job. Our cats are my world, my children, my everything - we do not trust them with just anyone - so, it speaks volumes that we entrust Cipirana with their care and well-being. We are so thankful that we found Cipriana & highly recommend her!

Cipriana is wonderful and her love of animals is apparent. She watches our dogs and cat for us while we are away and I never worry. When we needed help with training our new rescue puppy Ruthie, Cipriana was extremely knowledgeable and very supportive as she helped teach me how to best train Ruthie. She spent a lot of time with Ruthie and I in real life situations like walking through town and helping Ruthie adjust to real life situations that can’t happen within the walls of a training school. Ruthie is doing beautifully and has responded to all of Cipriana’s techniques. I highly recommend Cipriana .

Cipriana & Pam are wonderful, reliable and kind pet sitters. They truly care for your pet and I can travel without any worry that my pet will be well taken care of, and loved on, while I am away. They are detailed & caring. I’ve been working with them for over seven years now and would highly recommend them to pet owners.

Cipriana took very good care of my cats recently. She is conscientious and takes the job seriously.

absolutely the best!

Joan is absolutely the best! I have peace of mind knowing my cats are in reliable, loving hands when I’m away. Joan has been caring for my two cats since I adopted them over 10 years ago. She’s always been responsible, kind, and caring. When my mom passed away I needed to be away unexpectedly for several weeks, and Joan stepped in to take care of my kitties on very short notice - I’m beyond grateful. She responds to inquiries quickly, and posts pictures of both cats each time she visits! Joan is a true blessing.

Joan is a reliable professional. She took care of my cats many many times while I was living in New York. She developed a relationship with a couple of shy cats and I could always count on her. She gave me peace of mind when I couldn’t be there with my precious babies.

Joan is wonderful! She is very conscientious, caring and reliable. I left my elderly dog and 2 cats in her care for 10 days and didn't worry about them. She sent me pictures and video regularly and got my shyest cat to come out and play with her. She really loves animals. Anytime I have to go out of town, I'll be calling her to take care of my fur kids! Highly recommend!

Joan is absolutely wonderful! She is super responsive and sends photos every day. It’s clear she loves animals and is always available when we need her! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter.

We travel a lot and also have a second residence out of New York. The cats do not travel well so we rely on Joan to take care of the girls. I sleep well knowing that they are in the professional hands of Joan. She is amazing, never missing a day with them and sending me updates frequently. I don’t know what we would do without her. Thank you Joan!

I have only had fantastic experiences with Joan. She treats our cats lovingly, sends photos, and she even helped during a crazy snowstorm once. She goes above and beyond, and I’d recommend her to any pet owner who wants to endure their pets are in great hands.

I love Joan and more importantly my cat loved her too. She was always very fast to respond to emails or texts, made sure to tell me how my cat was doing, and always spent enough time with him to make sure he wasn't lonely. I found Joan to be reliable, even on very short notice - I think she loved my cat as much as I did. Hire Joan if you want to come home to a happy cat!

Joan has been our cat sitter for more than ten years now, and we cannot speak highly enough about her. We return from trips and weekends away with our cats happy, well fed, and calm. When our senior cats died, she was one of the first people we texted, as we knew she had forged special relationships with both of them. When we got our kittens (who are now four year olds), we knew that they would be in capable hands always. She is reliable, thoughtful, and caring. She goes above and beyond to play with and show affection during her visits, as you can tell by the condition the kitties are in when we return (mad at us, but overall content!). The best is when she posts "proof of life" photos on Instagram and Facebook so you can see their sweet faces when you are not at home. I would recommend her to anyone in the area who needs top of the line pet care, and her rates are very reasonable.

My two cats and I have been very lucky to have Joan in our lives for the past five years. I could not be happier with my experience as a customer and my cats could not be happier to have Joan as a friend. Joan is always easy to schedule with – she always responds promptly and confirms that she’ll be there, whether I’m organized and giving her a week’s notice or if I’m making a last minute trip and need her help the next day. I have two older cats, one of which is diabetic and requires shots twice a day, and one of which has allergies and must be given a daily pill, and is also quite shy. Joan has been able to handle these extra care needs without any problem. And she has even taught me a few tricks to get the shy one to take her pills! Joan goes the extra mile to do things like empty the recycling bin, wash the dishes in the sink, bring in the mail, etc. Most importantly to me, my cats love and trust Joan, and so do I. She has taken the time to really build a relationship with each of them. She was especially patient in getting my shy cat to come out of her shell, and I really noticed a difference that she became even more affectionate with me! When I come home from being away, my cats are always happy and at ease and my house is in order. It is worth every penny to me. Years ago, before I had Joan in my life, I would ask a friend or neighbor to check in on the cats, and there were often signs of stress – most frequently they would pee on something, like my bed – oh, so fun to come home to that! When my older cat become diabetic about five years ago, I knew I needed to engage a professional I could trust to come twice a day at scheduled times, and who had experience with giving insulin shots. And I am so glad that this led me to find Joan. It was truly life-changing. Instead of spending my vacations worrying about my babies, I knew they were in good and loving hands. I could not recommend Joan more highly or enthusiastically!

Joan has been our pet sitter for over ten years, and she has been extremely helpful and reliable. She always takes excellent care of our cats -- even the difficult one! -- and even helped us figure out how to get our stubborn, elderly cat to take her medication. She is dedicated and caring, and there's no one else we would trust our little ones with. She is part of our cats' extended family.

Mendé from Hounds of Love Pet Care is wonderful!!! I have 2 cats and a dog at home, and they all LOVE her. <3 <3 <3 Mendé helps me walk my dog every week, and also helps to look after my cats when I am away or unable. Mendé is reliable, always responsive, and so helpful and communicative, especially in emergency situations. For years, I’ve trusted Hounds of Love to give my babies the care they deserve, and I can’t recommend this business enough. Thank you Mendé!!!

Mendé is one of the most reliable and communicative dog sitters I’ve ever encountered. She took care of my 2 pups Monte and Bollinger with zero issues or problems. Would easily and highly recommend her.

The best pet care in the neighborhood! Mende is responsive and caring. I always know my cat is well taken care of while I’m away. Highly recommend!

Mende is reliable, loving, and understanding. She has been walking my dog Max for about a year now and I can always trust her to be communicative, show up consistently, make sure that Max is safe, and show him love as if he is her own. I love receiving pictures and updates from her on their walks, and she’s flexible if timing needs to be changed or if there’s a special request (like to feed him after his walk). I love that I have someone I can trust to care for Max when I’m at work during the day so I don’t have to worry. Mende has also watched Max overnight once as well, which was great experience.

Mende has watched our cats for a number of years now. Best, most reliable, most communicative sitter. Highly recommend her services and am thrilled to see by the other reviews that she has a loyal customer base.

🐀 mende showed up right on time and sent me the most adorable videos of my pet rats. they looked so happy playing with her, and later so excited to see her come back. rats need a lot of love and trust and attention and the way mende runs her business, communicates, and loves the animals she takes care of, i felt confident my ratties had everything they needed 🐀

I know that when I’m out of town I can trust Mendé to take excellent care of my diabetic elder cat. She’s always reliable and communicates with me while I’m not home. Like a true professional Mendé has gone above and beyond to accommodate me rearranging her own schedule for my kitty! She’s the only person I’d trust my pets with and has shown herself to be the best petsitter I’ve hired! You can trust that meds, cuddles, and quality care will be provided to your furry friends with Hounds of Love Pet Care!

I always get a little nervous when leaving my fuzzy buddy behind, as I'm sure anyone does. Mendé really helped ease that anxiety by keeping up regular communication and even videos and pictures! They immediately knew all the things they'd need to make sure my Cashew was totally taken care of while I was away. Clearly experienced, and obviously cares. Very grateful for someone so reliable and considerate to have taken care of my kitty cat!! You Rock Mendé 🥰

Mende is great! She has taken care of our dog, Wrigley, several times; she is communicative and easy to get in touch with. As hard evidence: My wife and I got married in Prospect Park, and entrusted Mende to bring Wrigley over for post-wedding photos.

Mende is an excellent dog walker and my dog, Frankie loves his walks with her! She is very responsive to requests for walks, attentive to my dog’s needs, and most of all, super loving to him! She always sends a picture of a very happy puppy when they are on their walk!
