“Lauren was the perfect babysitter for our pup while we were away for the day! We could tell he loved getting to hang with her and she was super responsive. We’ll definitely schedule another time for Lauren to watch Rizzo :)”

About: ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My first dog — Lucy, a Border Collie I had when I was 11 back in Shanghai, China — was my best friend for 16 years. Alongside her, I cared for a rescued stray cat "Noji" and an adopted poodle "Bebe" when I was 13, which taught me patience, responsibility, policing different pets, and how to understand different pet personalities. After moving to the U.S. for school, I brought home my baby Corgi "Brioche" in 2020. She’s now a 5-year-old certified service dog who’s friendly, well-trained, and walked three times a day for at least 30 minutes each time. I also helped train and kept a baby Devon Rex cat for my family in 2025. What sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience with pets of different breeds, ages, and temperaments — from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I love fur babies more than anything and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I will be working part time starting summer 2026 in NYC, so my schedule is flexible, I'm available for daily walks, boarding both weekdays and weekends. I live in a 2 bedroom in FiDi close to battery park city. There are no crates and my corgi was never crate-trained. I don't have indoor pet potty so I almost only take my dog out for potty unless the weather is crazy. I have plenty of dog beds and toys.

About: I offer a boutique, limited-client approach to pet care focused on attention, consistency, and trust. I intentionally keep my client list small so each pet receives individualized care and a calm, safe experience. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, and I pay close attention to each animal’s comfort, behavior, and routine. I’m comfortable supporting puppies who need structure and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, patience, medication support, or extra attentiveness. What sets me apart is a combination of hands-on animal care, strong communication, and a thoughtful, observant approach. I hold a Master’s degree in psychology, which informs how I read behavior, respond calmly, and build trust with both animals and people. I’m also a professional photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to offer attentive, personalized care. I love photographing pets and people, and I enjoy sharing thoughtful photo updates during walks or stays so owners feel connected and reassured. I provide dog walking, pet sitting, and overnights with safety, reliability, and clear communication as priorities. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care so pets feel comfortable and owners feel at ease. Please note: I have a young child in the home, so it’s important that owners disclose any history of aggression toward people or other dogs, bites within the past 2 years, or behavior concerns such as destructive chewing or indoor spraying/marking. This is rarely an issue, but if a pet damages furniture due to chewing, spraying, or similar behavior, the owner will be responsible for replacement costs. Pets in my care are allowed on furniture, and I’m unable to offer boarding or daycare in my home for dogs that spray/mark indoors. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine alongside my work as a professional photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop ins, and overnight care. I intentionally keep a limited client list so I can provide dependable, personalized attention and maintain consistency for the pets in my care. I am available for weekday, evening, and weekend care, including holiday bookings. I prioritize safety, consistency, and a calm environment while respecting each pet’s routine and comfort level. In a client’s home, I follow feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully, keep doors and leashes secure, and pay close attention to behavior and wellbeing. I maintain a clean, low stress environment, provide thoughtful supervision, and communicate clearly with photo updates and check ins so owners feel informed and reassured.

“Heather is an excellent sitter and a lovey person. She posted me hourly, if not more frequently, and was kind enough to put up with all my “new pawrent” questions and asks. Archimedes had a great time and he definitey enjoyed his stay. I’m grateful to Heather and glad we can continue our business relationship !”

“I’m really glad I chose Yutong for daycare with my energetic little poodle. He was very attentive and reliable, asking all the right questions about my dog’s character, sharing photos throughout the day, and keeping me updated on how things were going. My dog came home happy after spending the day with him, and I’ll definitely be coming back!”

Polina V.

“Roger took care of our Maltipoo Samy for three days while we were visiting New York. Samy is quite attached to me and gets quite nervous when I leave. But Roger handled him very well with a lot of patience and kindness. He was also very flexible and quick to answer. We are very thankful to him for taking care of our doggy so well. We will definitely book again if we go back to NYC.”

“Mariliz is absolutely amazing! From the moment I met her, I knew my dogs were in great hands. She made the entire processs easy, from drop off to pick up, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. What really sets Mariliz apart is her communication. She provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which allowed me to relax knowing my dogs were happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Finding someone you trust with your pets is priceless, and I couldn’t recommend Mariliz more highly. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter, look no further. Your fur babies will be in the best hands possible! Thank you, Mariliz, for taking such wonderful care of my dogs. I will be using your services again and recommending you to others.”

John W.

“We had a great experience with Bethany! She was very responsible, responsive, and flexible throughout the process. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand, which made us feel very comfortable. During daycare, she kept us updated with messages, photos, and videos, and always responded very quickly. She was also accommodating when we needed to adjust the original timing. She clearly cares about the dogs she watches, and we would definitely book with her again!”

Siriwan S.

“Britt was absolutely wonderful with Tiny. She and her partner helped me out on short notice and Tiny clearly had a great time and was so well cared for (e.g., letting me know when Tiny didn’t seem to be drinking enough water, checking in after playtime, etc.). Highly highly recommend!”

If you need us to crate your dog, leave and pick up keys with a doorman, turn heaters on/off, etc. for your fur baby, nothing is too big of an ask. We’ll always share lots of pics too for you to feel comfortable!

“My puppy Nola stayed with Amy while I was working in the office twice this week and had a great time! I can tell she was thoroughly cared for by Amy and came home happy.”
