“I felt comfortable leaving my 2 cats to be cared for by Alyssa. She was able to drop in prior to the booking to get instructions and communicated well. The cats are very shy - practically feral - but she was still able to snap a photo. I would definitely book with her again.”


“Brittany took such good care of our Lucy, giving us updates and awesome (and very cute) pics along the stay. This is the first time we needed a cat sitter, so we were pretty stressed so I'm very grateful we found Brittany. I would highly recommend her to all. No question who we will contact when we need a sitter again in the future. Thank you! ❤ - Chris & Jane”


“Sheliese was absolutely incredible! I've never left my dog home by herself while on a trip before, and was super nervous to do so, but Sheliese was super communicative and helped me feel at ease the whole time. She was very professional, and the most important thing...our sweet pup absolutely adores her!”


About: After many wonderful years with my emotionally complex (and deeply loved) shepherd, I’ve learned more from dogs than any book could ever teach. I'm now ready to share that experience with your pup—whether they’re joyful and energetic, shy and anxious, or living with physical limitations. I understand canine body language, behavior, and emotional needs. I let dogs set the pace—literally! Whether that means a calm house visit, a brisk jog, or a sandy beach walk, I adapt to what your dog enjoys most. Options I offer: Standard neighborhood walks Beach walks (great for dogs who love water and open space!) Runs/jogs for high-energy dogs (I can even bike or skate if your dog needs a little extra) Walk with a friend (super friendly blonde Yochon doggy in my pics) House visits and companionship Special care for dogs with emotional or physical challenges Let your best friend walk me—and rest easy knowing they’re in loving, experienced hands. I work from home every day and don't have a boss. My schedule is very relaxed, and I take frequent breaks, which usually involve walks on the boardwalk/beach. I live on the 2nd floor of a duplex with little furniture, so my place is very safe for pets. Not much to chew on or bang into.

About: Growing up in Ireland I had my own dog a cavalier King Charles which I took care of every day. I’ve lived in Rockaway Beach NY since 2012 with my husband and my son aged 9 who will be helping me walk your dog. We got him a dog for his 4th birthday and he knows how to be caring and kind towards animals. We’ve had rabbits who gave birth twice and we learned all about taking care of small bunnies (kits). Also a pug who at the time we didn’t know was pregnant and she gave birth to 4 puppies. It was a learning and most enjoyable experience for both of us! We are very reliable and responsible and look forward to caring for your pet whenever you may need additional help. I work full time but I am available after school hours and most weekends. I am teaching my son at an early age how to be reliable, punctual and professional for a job while also doing something we can enjoy together while we are walking or taking care of your pets. I work full time Monday to Friday but I am available after school hours and most weekends. We offer flexible hours to help you out. We keep our dog in our house we also have a back yard he can go into so he can play ball with my son.

About: With over 10 years of experience in pet care, I have developed a deep understanding of both dogs and cats. My services extend beyond the basics of feeding, walking, and supervising; I am skilled in administering medication and providing thorough baths when needed. This extensive experience has equipped me to handle a wide range of pet needs with compassion and expertise, ensuring that each furry friend receives the best possible care while their owners are away. I’m currently working part time and will have plenty of time to care and take care of your pet. I will walk as much as you would recommend and also go for runs. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space within the house. I always have an eye out and will block off areas when need be. I keep a clean and tidy home and no scraps are ever left on floor.

“Meg was great! She sent us pictures and updates on our cat while we were away. You can tell she really cares about the animals by her updates and how she went above and beyond to not only feed him but play with him and keep him company during her drop-ins!”


About: I’ve grown up with large and small dogs my whole life. In my 20s, my former partner and I raised a German Shepherd. I learned that you need to train yourself before you can train your dog. I believe in positive reinforcement training and that consistency is what works best. I currently have a small somewhat senior dog that is a mixed breed who is special needs. He is deaf and has IVDD which has taught me a lot. I have ramps and gates so he and other dogs can get on and off furniture with ease. I also am able to gently administer oral medication for even the most stubborn pups as sometimes mine can be quite stubborn! I work remotely from home with the exception of one day a month. This really allows me to give the time and attention needed to your pets care. It also gives me the flexibility to work from anywhere that has an internet connection. I have a fenced in yard but also love going on walks as I know dogs love and need stimulation. Our in home pets are very calm and accepting of other pets that I have cared for which is one of the reasons why I felt that opening up our home to other pets would work. If your pet is not the best with cats we are able to keep them separated.

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.

About: I’m a long time cat and dog lover with over 10 years of experience taking care of furry friends! I have been the go to caretaker for friends, family, and coworkers who travel often. I spent the last 4 years frequently boarding a pair of sibling cats while their owner went on vacation, but since moving into a smaller apartment that does not allow pets, I’ve had the pleasure of pet/house sitting in other people homes. My experience ranges from freshly spayed kittens to freshly spayed senior pups. You can count on long walks, daily litter cleaning, playtime, and an extraordinary level of care for your loved one. 🐶🐱 (PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I WORK 9-5PM MON-FRI. I CAN STILL PROVIDE HOUSE/PET SITTING SERVICES, BUT YOUR PET MUST BE OKAY STAYING ALONE DURING THESE HOURS:) ) I’m currently working 9-5pm Mon-Fri and would be happy to pet/house sit before and after work! I am also available on weekends for sitting services. For walking services, I am available weekdays after 5pm and weekends until 6pm. Weekday routines include morning walks for your pup and play time of course! I will feed your dog/cat before I leave and make sure their litter is cleaned if applicable. You can expect a long walk right after work and shorter evening outings, depending on your usual schedule! I’m a tidy person and will leave your house cleaner than when you left :) Weekends are full days of caring for your furry loved ones and local adventures :)

“Iwona dropped by to feed our baby while we were out of town for several days and was prompt each day with her reports. She also came by for a pre-visit to get our key and meet the kitty :)”

Annette B.
“Annette has been incredible with my dog, Junie. We live by the beach, and Annette regularly takes Junie there to run, play, and meet other dogs. Because of her, Junie has become so much more comfortable around other dogs and even enjoys the water now, which I never thought would happen! Annette’s positive energy puts Junie at ease, and her patience really shows in how she helps Junie grow and gain confidence. She treats Junie like her own, making sure she’s happy, safe, and having tons of fun. Thanks to Annette, Junie has a better social life than I do! I can’t recommend her enough—any dog would be lucky to have her a friend.”

Daina G.
“Hi there! It is my pleasure to recommend Daina as a caretaker. She is a proud and loving dog and cat mom to one little pup (Gyro) and two cats (Jameson & Guinness). Over the course of her life she has owned, fostered, rescued, trained and looked after a wide variety of animals ranging in ages, sizes and temperaments. She is patient, kind and loving as well as keeping a firm hand to insure the safety and overall wellness of the animals. She is attentive and treats all pets as though they were her own and as she would want hers treated. Whether in our own home or the homes of others, she goes to great lengths to meet the needs of every pet on an individual basis while honoring and following the wishes of each owner such that their pet gets the happiest and most comfortable experience. You can be confident your fur baby is in the greatest hands while Daina's got her eye on them!”


David D.
“David has watched my dog Bruno multiple times and he has gone above and beyond every single time! Bruno is a monster Cane Corso that most people cannot handle. David has never complained about him, and has only said positive things. Anybody that gets him as a Dog watcher is very lucky!”


Angie M.
“Hi! Angie is honestly a lifesaver. My dog, Lacy, recently had surgery, and with my hectic work schedule, I had to go away a few times—she stepped in without hesitation. She gave Lacy her meds, kept a close eye on her, and made sure she was comfortable and cared for like she was her own. She also sent regular updates and the sweetest pictures, which really helped ease my mind while I was away. She’s also watched my sister’s large dog before while we were all out of town, and handled it with zero issues. Angie is super reliable, flexible, and genuinely loves animals. With how unpredictable my schedule can get, having someone I can count on like her has been such a relief. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and goes above and beyond, Angie’s the one.”
