“Ms. Rita was the best person I’ve ever had with Rover. She took such wonderful care of my cats when I went out of town and was in constant communication with me. Her warm, honest, caring demeanor is something I’m an awe of. I am so grateful for her, and I highly recommend her to take care of your animals as well, you won’t regret it!!!”

About: With 6 years of caregiving experience, and a customer satisfaction rating of 4.9/5 stars, I pride myself on being knowledgeable, patient and reliable. I have worked with cats and dogs from birth to as old as 18 years. I love animals and it shows in my work. I am the person who goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is has the most compassionate and highest-quality experience, whether it’s a 30-minute walk or a week long, overnight stay. I have boarded, walked and cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, ages and temperaments, administering medicine, reporting on behaviors, training, and more. I am responsible, cautious, detail oriented and I am sure that I would make a great fit as a caregiver for your furry friend! I work full-time but have an overall flexible schedule. My mornings are very flexible, allowing me to commit extra time and attention to pets. I do not work weekends or holidays so my schedule allows me the capacity for boarding and overnight stays during particularly busy times of then year for pet parents. I take pet care and safety very seriously. I am vigilant to avoid door dodgers, leash evaders and even the occasional fence hopper. My large, fenced in yard gives pets the autonomy and freedom to explore where I can keep a close eye on them from the outdoor patio or screened in porch. My own animals are crate trained and well socialized due to my many years of boarding experience in-home. I am well equipped to facilitate first introductions, and have the space to accommodate furry friends who may not be as eager or willing to socialize with my animals. Lastly, my SPCA volunteer training has taught me how to identify behaviors and make informed decisions when handling animals or entering their homes.
“Madison was incredible! Very communicative, arrived on time and stayed the entirety of her booking, and sent me photos every day. My cat is very shy but Madison was patient with her. She was also flexible and that allowed me to extend my vacation knowing my kitty was in good hands.”
“I'm so thankful to Ava for watching and attending to our Maine Coon. She's extremely dependable and trustworthy. Knowing that our Niki is in good hands while we're on travel is invaluable.”
“Wenda is the best sitter we’ve used with Rover. She is my go-to for checking in on my cat when we’re out of town, and for walking our German Shepherd when we’re working late. She sends photos and detailed updates and goes above and beyond with taking care of our pets. 10/10 recommend!”
About: My name is Molly and I just graduated from Stony Brook University with my bachelor’s in marine biology. I am currently in the process of applying to veterinary school and am employed as a vet assistant. I have worked as a kennel assistant at Dogwood Acres and I have dogs of my own. I have worked with small and large dogs, as well as dog-aggressive dogs. I have also house-sat cats before. I care for my 2 reptiles and fish and I grew up on a small farm with goats, sheep, chickens, and more assorted pets. With my knowledge of the vet field and background in animal care, I will do everything I can to make your pet comfortable and happy <3 I am working as a vet assistant to get oriented in the field and I am also writing my vet school applications this summer. I work Monday-Wednesday and every other Thursday. Occasionally I have half days on Saturday. Every day is filled with pet care for me, and I have extensive experience in the field. I would love to give the best care I can to your pet! If boarding: I have a dog named Jane who gets along with other dogs and loves people! I have both a fenced yard and an open yard that your dog would be free to roam if staying with me. I also have a pool that is available to them. There is a doggy door to the fenced yard and pool, water available throughout the day, and I will be around to keep an eye on them unless my schedule states otherwise. I’ll make sure they’re eating, sleeping, getting medication as needed, and having normal potty breaks. I will update you with daily photos and call in case of any abnormalities or emergencies. If housesitting: When going over to your home I will make sure to check on your pet regularly and observe their behaviors. I will make sure that your pet is eating, having normal potty breaks, getting medication as needed, and that the house is in good condition after your pet has been left alone. I am willing to water plants, feed fish and reptiles, and do other general housesitting tasks as well. I will send updates at least once a day with photos and call in case of any odd behavior or emergencies.
“Maria was wonderful. She took great care in watching mittens and mono; and keep home safe. I only hope i she will come b back in the future if needed. The best part was that she kept me informed and sent me pictures of the kitties.”

Nicole L.
“Nicole is one of if not the most reliable dog sitter and caregiver I have ever come across. Outside of being a wonderful dog owner and lover herself, she puts the same amount of effort into taking care of other's animals as she would her own. You can't go wrong when you have someone like her in your corner.”

Melissa O.

Molly S.
“I have a dog that loves people but dislikes all other animals. She is no doubt a difficult dog. Before Molly, she had to be kenneled, which I didn't love doing. I tried several other dog sitters and it was a disaster. I even had to leave my vacation early once because the sitter let her loose w another dog. Molly gets animals, their behavior, requirements and fully understands the seriousness of my situation. She is the ONLY pet sitter I allow to watch my dog. It also helps that she is studying to be a Veterinarian, has her degree in Marine Biology and has access to veterinary advice and care from her coworkers should a question arise. She is also a very friendly, honest and a reliable young lady, who also loves plants, so if you need those watered or cared for as well she has a great green thumb!”
