“We are so lucky to have found Paula, she's an absolute blessing! She is competent, reliable, responsive, and just overall a kind and lovely human! It was such a relief to know our furballs were in good hands while we were away. I cannot recommend Paula more highly, and we will definitely be using her again.”

About: Hi! I’m John — a certified dog lover, NYC DOE-vetted caretaker, and proud former dog dad to the sweetest Shih Tzu, Lola. I grew up with dogs and cared for Lola for over 10 years. I know exactly how much your pup means to you because mine was truly part of my heart. Whether I’m walking, sitting, or dropping in, I’ll treat your dog like family — with patience, love, and dependable care. I’m based in Staten Island and currently work as a substitute teacher, which means I’ve passed background checks and know how to be punctual, respectful, and trustworthy. My schedule is flexible over the summer and during weekends. Let’s chat — I’d love to meet your pup and become their new favorite human! I’m going to have full availability to work over the summer, since I work as a substitute teacher in the New York City Department of Education. I can also accommodate towards last minute bookings if needed! The neighborhood that I live in is very safe and quiet, which would be ideal for walks. Your pet would always get my full attention to their daily needs.

“excellent service took very well care of my dog while i was away on vacation over the weekend checked on her on schedule and walked her and fed her every visit couldn't have asked for better care thank u”


“Another awesome visit with gab! She is professional, on time, open lines of communication, cares for the animals and all around an awesome sitter! Thank you again!”


About: My love for animals is more than just a hobby, it's a core part of who I am! If you Look at my social media explore pages or scroll through my camera roll, you'll see it's just an endless album of adorable dogs and cats I've encountered everywhere. I'm that person who will happily stop a stranger on the street just to ask if I can admire and snap a photo of their cute dog. Animals bring me so much joy and I genuinely believe they make the world a better place. My passion extends beyond just admiration; it's about providing the best possible care, endless affection, and a safe, happy environment for every pet I have the privilege of looking after. As a part-time student, I have a flexible schedule with a lot of free time on days I don't have classes. This gives me alot of time to schedule pet care into my routine! I like to be a patient and attentive caregiver, understanding that every pet has unique needs and preferences, whether it's during meal times or grooming. I'll actively monitor their environment to ensure their safety and well-being and will always conduct research or reach out to you if I have any concerns.

“Thank you for taking great care of my baby even if she made a sh**** first impression lol!”

“Once again we used Stephanie for our yorkie and now our foster cat and she was the greatest in caring for both. I think my dogs likes her more then me 😊”

“Oleg was nothing short of incredible. My wife and I were traveling for our wedding and we hadn't used Rover before. Oleg put any nerves we had about leaving our pets alone at ease. He was communicative, caring, and you could tell he really enjoyed playing with the cats. He stayed later than required in all three visits and blew up our phones with pictures and videos. I highly recommend Oleg and would definitely book him again.”

“Julie is exceptional. . She is a skilled cat whisperer who calmed our two cats during our vacation. One of whom is a feral cat we have fed for 10 years but have never came closer than 10 feet from but the cat felt safe eating with Julie. Julie has exceptional judgement and is contentious. She is completely honorable and reliable. I offer her my highest recommendation and do so without reservations.”
