“Ana took amazing care of our two cats, diligently following every instruction and keeping us updated with messages and photos. A couple of visits ran a bit late, but she was very communicative beforehand and always came through, even giving the cats extra time. Ana and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for!”
“I've used Mandel twice now. I highly recommend him! He's a gentleman. I know that's a bit unusual to say, but that really sticks out to me. Also, he is always on time and is great with my elderly cat. I will always use him from now on!”
About: Former dog owner and shelter volunteer with over 15 years of experience. I’m a go-to sitter for friends and I’m an active runner on the Rockaway boardwalk. I'm very comfortable and capable with all temperaments and energy levels. I have a hybrid work schedule, where I work from home 3 days during the week, and would be able to take breaks for walks. Weekends I am free. I live in a 4th floor walk up that allows pets. Other tenants have dogs. I live less than 1 block away from the boardwalk and beach for walks.
“Alexandra did a great job with our 17 year old cat. We were out of town for 3 days and came back to a very clean living space and a very content Isis. Would definitely recommend Alexandra for overnight sitting with your pet!”
About: I used to live with 5 dogs and take care of them, walk them twice a day and fed them with baked fresh meat. They are my mom’s dogs and I see them as my brothers I’m currently applying for pediatric residency training, so I’m available any time and I have a car to drive to destinations almost anywhere, thank you. I used to help my mom cake care if the dogs and cats, she works a lot so almost me doing everything about pets, walking them and take the youngest one to a training class.
“Ariella provides excellent cat sitting services. She is 100 percent reliable. She takes time to enjoy each cat- and understands their individual personalities and needs. The cats are very happy when she comes over- even greeting her on the stairs. We have been using Ariella for the past couple of years and will continue to use her. Highly recommend her if you want peace of mind.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I grew up with both small and large breeds, trained my own dogs in basic obedience and fun tricks, and even competed in the Vermont Iron Dog competition (an Iron Man-style challenge with your dog by your side!) many times. Beyond my own pets, I’ve fostered and worked with rescue dogs—including those with behavioral challenges—so I’m comfortable and confident around shy, reactive, or high-energy pups. I’ve also pet-sat for family and friends, cared for cats as well as dogs, and know how important it is to provide reliable, loving care when you’re away. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, snuggles, or just a calm and patient presence, I’ll treat them like my own. I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. My mother was a vet tech in her younger career and has since imparted some of her knowledge on me, for which I am grateful. I've helped her with in-home care of some of our older dogs that require some basic medical needs and am comfortable with a range of medical needs for pets. I work a 9-5 remote job and can take a lunch break during the day to visit or walk your pet, as well as visit before or after. I do travel regularly and may be unavailable some weekends, but generally I am around. I am happy to come visit your pet in the comfort of their home and spend some quality time based on their needs. My goal is to spend at least 30 minutes making sure your pet is cared for properly and can stay additional time before or after work hours (9am-5pm) if you so choose.
“I'm so happy to have found Jamie! She is a true cat lover and has so much experience with rescue cats. My cat is very shy but already seems more comfortable around Jamie than he has other cat sitters!”
About: I have been caring for dogs ever since I can remember and in particular I started caring for them professionally around 5 years ago. I have yet to meet a dog I could not handle, even ones that people would call big and scary. I believe this comes from a firmly held belief that if you treat a dog right, they will stand by you forever. I am experienced with dogs from young to old, small to large, and docile to super hyper. I attempt to accommodate any and all requests to the best of my abilities. In addition I would be more than happy to meet a prospective client free of charge before watching their pet. In general, I am available nightly starting at 7 PM except for Fridays where I am unavailable. Wednesday nights and the Saturday nights I am available from 9:30 PM and onwards. Sundays, I am available all day. In general, I do not watch dogs in my own home. In regards to the pet Owner’s home I do whatever I can to accommodate all safety requests and needs.

“Valeria was amazing staying with my 2 cats when i was away for a weekend! She took great care of them and sent picture updates everyday. She was also so easy to work with and flexible to my schedule - I almost had to cancel and she was able to work it out with me when I found out I didn't have to cancel! Will definitely have her come watch my boys again ☺️”
“Bernadette was so kind and thorough while with my puppy. She sent me updates of what they did and I got a cute little photo! She knows my puppy is having an issue with one of her legs right now so she took her on a small walk just to get some energy out still and of course for potty. She communicated well with me throughout the hour. She is also so flexible with availability! I would highly recommend booking her for your puppy or adult dog:)”

Ariella was a total professional and went above and beyond to drop in on our sweet cat Claude while we were away for almost two weeks. She sent updates and photos daily and really seemed invested in how Claude was doing. She also noticed that a winter storm was due and proactively notified us. She topped up his food and water beforehand, and made sure he would be comfortable if she was snowed in for a day. But that wasn’t even necessary, because she came to visit him at 6 am to beat the snow on day one, and on the second day of the storm had her car dug out and came over to complete her visit. It takes so much to trust someone with your pet and to be in your house, and Ariella earned that right away with us. Thank you Ariella!!!
