Schenectady Pet Sitting & Dog Walking

Excellent service and communication, and most importantly, pet care. Setup for a new sitting like ours was thorough, but easy, and included a meet-n-greet. Maribeth and the sitter,... read more Patricia, were great!

Very professional, caring and excellent service! Our boy had anxiety with boarding. This service is perfect so he is comfortable in his own environment. The cost is very reasonable!

We have used them to care for our cats numerous times & have been so happy. Besides caring for our cats they send us daily reports & pictures which make... read more us feel so much more comfortable. In addition they have helped with some mInor tasks such as bringing in the mail which again makes life easier. Highly recommend pup e cise

We have been using Maribeths’ services for several years now. She has been great with all my dogs ( past and present). She truly cares for them.... read more I especially like the email after a visit with an update. It gives me piece of mind, and the services they provide is worth it! Keep up the good work team!

Maribeth and her team were life savers! She was able to squeeze us in last minute when we were suddenly without a pet sitter for an upcoming trip. We messaged... read more her and she came the same day to meet us and our dogs. Her team took great care of our dogs, sending regular reports and photos. The dogs always looked so happy. It put us at ease knowing Maribeth and her team were taking such good care of our pets. We would absolutely use them again, the service was amazing. We highly recommend them. Thank you Maribeth and pup-e-cise.

Absolutely legendary service. They came in when I needed someone most and took care of our cat Coconut and provided us with descriptions and pictures of her during their visits.... read more We got home today and she was as happy as could be!

Pup-e-cise is amazing. The care that Val in particular provides to our elderly cat when we go away provides us with great peace of mind. The daily written updates (including... read more a photo) helps us remain connected to our pet while we can't be there in person. The team at Pup-c-cise responds immediately to any issues that come up, and has shown great flexibility when travel plans get altered. Thanks for the tremendous care you provide each and every time!

My experience with pup-e-cise has been absolutely amazing The daily check ins… The photos… And especially the loving time spent with my dogs has been priceless I can’t recommend them or thank them enough... read more for all that they do!!!

It's a comfort to know that our cats are being treated with tender loving care while we are away. Pup-e-cise is professional yet personal. We are so grateful to... read more have found them!

Very caring, responsive to requests. Felt very comfortable with Maribeth. Loved the pictures and daily notes. Would highly recommend.

These dog walkers are reliable, friendly and are great with my dog. I recommend this service to anyone who needs help walking their dog.

We used Pup-e-cise during my wedding weekend and were so impressed. The dog sitter left us adorable messages (with pictures!) about our girls and how they were doing. Not once... read more did I feel any anxiety about them, and it was all thanks to Maribeth and her team. Will definitely be using them again and highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional care of their beloved pets!

Professional, responsible and reliable. True animal lovers!

I have 3 velcro dogs who grew used to me telecommuting throughout the pandemic-when it was time to go back to work, the anxiety was overwhelming on both ends. after... read more a google search, I found pup-e-cise with outstanding reviews and immediately set up a meet and greet. I had a very short time frame to set something up, and Maribeth came ASAP. after deeming the boys well behaved enough for care, she walked me through how to use the system portal of booking and setting up information for each dog. it was, and is, so simple and easy! very user friendly system and beyond accommodating business owner. Phil has been all of my dogs’ best bud for the past 6 months- no joke about it. each day I received an update on what toys they were into, how they braved the cold, what activity level they were at, etc. I also got some of the best action photos of my pups of all time. all 3 of my dogs are rescues, and all but 1 tend to shy from strangers- from day 1, they trusted Phil as one of their own. he is the BEST of the best! I’m going to cut my review off here so I don’t sound like a rambling, crazy dog lady (too late for the latter) but- if you’re in the service area and need someone to care for your pet, pup-e-cise is the way to go. prepared, prompt, polite, and professional.

Ok, I am a nervous cat mom. My cat has separation anxiety and apparently so do I. From the moment I contacted Maribeth, I immediately felt good about... read more her responses and knew this was the place to entrust with Caesar's well-being. We left for vacation for a week, something that has always caused me stress - leaving him. However, every single day, Cindi sent a detailed and delightful update on her visit with him and included a photo. I cannot express enough how much stress this took off of my shoulders, knowing he was not just being fed but he was being cared for and loved. I found myself looking forward to the daily update. She took time to sit and pet him and give him attention and my normally very shy Caesar took to her immediately. I could tell she established good rapport with him and genuinely seemed to enjoy caring for him. I cannot recommend these people enough and have not stopped talking about them to everyone I know. The prices were extremely reasonable and I can now plan future vacations without that nagging guilt and stress of leaving Caesar behind. Thank you Cindi, you have no idea how much you added to my vacation enjoyment 🙂

I just moved back to the area, and when it was time to go out of town for the first time, I was worried about what I would do about... read more dog sitting. I am so glad that I found pup-e-cise! Maribeth put my mind at ease and with her team has delivered top-notch service. She is incredibly responsive answering my questions, concerns, and even rearranging the schedule when needed. I love the reports I get from the walkers, and it is clear that they care very much for my dog. It is such a relief to know that I have someone I can turn to, should I ever be in a bind and need care for my dog. I would highly recommend pup-e-cise!

I really love this company, the owner and her employees are kind and thoughtful. I work long days and it gives me peace of mind knowing that one of the... read more dog walkers is coming by to let my girls out.

My wife and I were quite pleased with the care extended to our pet cat, Lilly, along with the attention to to our residence. It allowed us to relax and... read more enjoy our week long vacation. The care and attention given to Lilly by the sitter (twice daily) was exceptional and provided us peace of mind. We highly recommend this service and will employ them again in the future if needed.

Maribeth and Cindi are the best of the best. This is my first time hiring a pet sitter for my sweet Chloe - and let me tell you -... read more I was so hesitant to hire anyone that I almost considered not going on vacation. Cindi to the rescue. From the minute I met Cindi, I liked her. She has devoted so much her life to caring and loving on other people's pets - you could tell that she genuinely cares. Cindi sent me such comical write ups daily (twice a day) and a photo. I could tell Chloe was happy and enjoying her time with Cindi. My girl is passive, but social and she pretty much was in charge of her digs while allowing Cindi in to feed her and give her much craved pets and love. As a matter of fact, Chloe loved Cindi so much - she's currently on her picky-food-strike at the moment. I mentioned this to Cindi and her response was.... "Do you want me to go over there and feed her?" Hilarious. In all sincerity - If there were a 10 star rating - Maribeth and Cindi would both get 10 each. Thank you for loving on my girl and for making sure she was well cared for and not forgotten while I was away.

Pup-e-size took care of our 3 cats while we were on vacation. They came in and fed them following our directions to the letter, gave them their treats and meds... read more and even took care of the litter box. They sent us an update with pictures and I knew when they checked in and when they left. They came 2x a day for a full week. The kittens got to stay in their home environment and it was a fraction of the cost of boarding them! I would reccomend them again and again.

We love pup-e-cise! They are so friendly and have been amazing with our two dogs and one cat. We use their Home Alone service several times a year... read more while we're away on short trips. Our animals are much more comfortable being able to stay home instead of being boarded. We have pup-e-cise come twice a day to feed and play with them. They are very dependable and always send us an email update with pictures. They also do a GPS check-in when they're at our home so we know when they've been there. I just can't say enough about this company!

Maribeth and her staff are fantastic! I know I can leave for a week or a weekend and my cats are in excellent hands. They feed them, they clean their... read more litter boxes and make sure they're taken care of. Their prices are more than reasonable. And they are service workers, so don't forget to leave a tip.. I have absolute trust in Pup-e-cise and wouldn't trust my pets to anyone else.

What amazing service! This was my first time using a professional sitter service and I was fortunate to find Pup-E-Cise. From the moment I met our sitter, Cindi, I knew I... read more was going to leave my Beastie in exceptional hands! Even my kitty was drawn to her almost instantly and started giving her kisses. Cindi is an absolute delight! She checked in every day she visited, which put my mind at ease. Attention to the small things matter, too- kitty dishes were cleaned and used litter and food cans taken away. I appreciated the help while I was away!! I highly recommend them! And hope you’re lucky enough to have Cindi as your sitter!

I would give them 10 Stars if I could! If you need a pet sitter or dog walker, these are the people you want! Maribeth hooked me up... read more with the perfect match for my new puppy, it was personalized service at it's finest! My pup is truly loved and cared for while I am gone by Tom, and their flexibility is amazing. They have gone above and beyond to accommodate me and my schedule, which can be crazy. Can't say enough positive things about my experience, I tell them all the time they are "the best", and I truly mean it.
