About
When it is unfeasible to travel with your beloved pet, what are your options. It is often difficult to find someone responsible and trustworthy enough to take care of your pet. For the past several decades, I have been an animal lover. I am an experienced dog trainer and pet sitter. Since 1998, I have raised 5 puppies for the Guiding Eyes for the Blind. I also adore cats and am experienced in caring for them. I have Liability and Bond Insurance through Pet Sitters International. In addition, I am an American Kennel Club Evaluator for the Canine Good Citizen Test. For 4 1/2 years, I taught Puppy, Basic, Advanced and Canine Good Citizen classes at Petsmart in Latham, NY. I also taught Puppy classes at the Albany Obedience Club in Glenmont, NY. I look forward to caring for your pets.

Lyn was very patient with my puppy & I! Lyn definitely knows her work. My grandmother was in the training with me as well. I’d refer Lyn Ory to anybody I know. <3

I needed a sitter for Easter Sunday as I was traveling for the day. I was happy to have found Lyn‘s profile and immediately called her and hired her. Lyn took excellent care of my puppy while I was away. She’s reliable, patient, and professional. I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. I highly recommend her.
