About: I have interacted with many pets since young - many of my friends as well as a few relatives have pets that I would occasionally watch. I am working as an accountant but I have the flexibility to work from home when necessary and take breaks to play with your pups or bring them on walks. I have a small backyard outside of my apartment if I will be boarding your pup. If I am taking care of a pet at a clientâs home, I will make sure to communicate with the client and be attentive to the pupâs needs and wants.
âkeysis was great with our brand new 7 month old puppy. He is still adjusting and isnât easy to walk at the moment but Keysis was patient and took great care of him. She is responsive, kind and easy to work with and coordinate with!â

âMarco was great! My partner and I had to schedule a walker last minute and we both felt very comfortable and safe as soon as we met Marco. Marco has a good energy, our dog was excited to meet them and very happy after his walk. I would 100% recommend Marco and rebook at any other time I need dog support.â

About: I've been taking care of all sorts of pets since I was in high school (for about 10 years) and have loved it ever since. My aunt, a full time animal care taker, used to let me tag along with her from house to house. She got me my first jobs as an overnight dog/cat sitter. I currently watch my friend's pets in nyc when they go on vacation or need an extra hand with their fur baby. I'd like to pursue taking care of animals more often as it's something I enjoy so much. I'm currently working at a fitness studio and my schedule changes week to week. However, I send my availability into work about a week in advance. I am available to stay over to watch your pet most nights out of the week. I live in Astoria by the water and Astoria Park which is great for long walks. I am also more than comfortable staying over at your home with your pet and helping out around the house in any way I can while you are away.
âIt was my first time hiring a dog walker for Fuji and I must admit, I was very nervous. However, Marissa was phenomenal, I canât recommend her enough. She over communicated, she was super patient, very helpful, punctual and kept my mind at ease while I was away. Fuji really enjoyed her too! Thank you again, Marissa!â

âDavid is fantastic. He takes such great care of our dog, is always reliable, and genuinely goes the extra mile. Heâs incredibly flexible and has helped us out in a pinch every single time. Weâre so grateful to have him and couldnât recommend him more.â

âIt was so nice meeting Anna! Lucky had such a great time with her! She was so kind and easy to connect with. I felt very comfortable, and Iâll definitely book her againâ

âOur little guy LOVES Kat!!! She's very sweet, communicative, punctual, and you can definitely tell she really enjoys taking care of and loves animals. She sends us lots of pictures to let us know how he is doing and he always has a HUGE smile on his face. We have used her numerous times will continue to use Kat for upcoming stays and/or visits <3â

About: I work from home, so Iâm able to come to you to sit with your fur baby or host them at my place, if that feels like the best fit and your comfortable with that. For pups, Iâm happy to provide short walks as needed. I have 25 years of experience as a cat mama, including administering medication and caring for senior kitties. While youâre away, Iâll make sure your pet receives plenty of cuddles, treats, and food and water exactly as instructed. I truly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your babies are being well cared for and would love to provide that for you! I currently work from home and live near Astoria Park. With a flexible schedule outside of scheduled meetings, Iâm happy to fit in short walks during the workday. I can also welcome your fur babies into my home for short stays or come to youâwhatever works best for you and your pet. I truly value any instructions you provide, as every fur baby has their own unique needs and preferences đ. If you choose to bring your pet to my home, Iâd be more than happy to have you stop by beforehand to check out the space. I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident leaving them in my care. Iâve also included a few photos of my home, along with my sweet Maxie, whom I recently lost to cancer, so you can get a sense of the environment

âResponded within 20 minutes for an hour-away last-minute walk request. Made sure to check for any medical issues. Arrived right on time and took the whole requested time. Not a rushed walk, went fully around the park I live by, made sure to let her chase squirrels! :) No issues with instructions on how to get into apartment, put everything right back after leaving. Efficient and personable communicator. Took some amazing pictures of my dog! Hoping to schedule her again today.â

âKaili did a great job handling my corgi! She is really responsible and friendly with dogs. I was calm during the trip knowing that Kaili will walk my cutie pie. Donât hesitate to use Kailiâs help!â

âSylvia and Scott are wonderful! I know my little man is happy and well taken care of when they walk him. They're on time and always send me great pics of my pup from their walks.â

âPedro has been walking Rory every weekday for close to two months now. He has been amazing, always making sure Rory enjoys his walks while making sure he does his business. He always makes sure to clean his paws and change his water.â

âDevon, Was great with cooper! Cooper was very excited to go for walks with Devon. Very communicative and caring. Will definitely use Devon Again!â

About: As a registered nurse and lifelong dog lover, providing attentive, compassionate care comes naturally to me. Iâve been caring for dogs since age 9 and am trusted by friends for walking, sitting, puppy care, senior care, and administering medications. My availability varies week to week due to my nursing work schedule, but Iâm reliable, communicative, and happy to coordinate in advance with pet owners! I provide care in my clientâs home, offering dog walking and sitting in a familiar, comfortable environment. I ensure dogs are fed, clean, exercised, and given medications as needed. I prioritize safety, routines, and close attention to each dogâs individual needs. In addition, I live near several dog parks and love engaging in safe, fun playtime for dogs who enjoy being active.
âMarina was so great with my big senior dog. They are super responsive, caring, and reliable. We're looking forward to future walks with you! Thank you đâ

William has been phenomenal with our Ringo. He is a great communicator, arrives promptly, and shares detailed recaps (with photos!) of their walks. He's been such a great resource while we are at work during the week, and we would definitely recommend him for any walking needs!!

Alexandra was absolutely wonderful with Luca. She has a genuine love and care for animals and was very attentive and observant of Lucaâs behavior. She showed up on time for Lucaâs lunchtime walk which speaks to her ability to respect Luca (and my) schedule. Your dog will be in capable hands!
