“Amanda has been walking my dog Jimmy for a long time. Jimmy loves when she comes. He knows that she really cares for him. She lets him to chase squirrels in the park. She even comes with treats. Sometimes she even brings her own dog Zoe to come along for the fun. In the park they both chase squirrels. It is hilarious to see.”

About: I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for them. I am patient, attentive, and responsible with feeding, walks, routines, playtime, and giving pets affection and attention based on their personality and comfort level. I understand that every pet is different and try to help them feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for caged birds at home, so I am especially mindful about safety and supervision around animals. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I try to keep pets comfortable and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment for pets. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and each pet’s comfort level and personality.

About: Hi! My name is Ying (aka Lucy) and I take every chance I get to play with doggies. I've always been a dog lover, ever since I was a kid. To me, they are the purest and cutest creatures, and spending time with them brings me so much joy. I've helped walk my friends’ dogs and enjoyed playing with them whenever I visited their homes. These experiences have given me a good understanding of how to handle dogs of different temperaments and sizes. I am currently working from home and have flexible schedules. I am available all day on weekends. Whether your furry friend needs a midday walk or some company in the evening, I can accommodate your needs. I make sure your pet feels safe and loved, whether they're with me or in their own home. My home is clean and pet-friendly, with plenty of fresh water and cozy resting areas. Living near a dog park means lots of fun and secure playtime. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and stick to your pet's routine. I ensure all entry points are secure and remove any potential hazards. I'm also attentive to any special needs, whether it's medication or dietary requirements. I always use secure leashes and harnesses on walks, and I love keeping you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and safe. My goal is to provide a loving, fun, and safe environment for every pet I care for.
“Great sitter, very consistent and reliable walker for our 2 year old Aussie who is very feisty and pulls a lot. Ismail handled him well and Yonkie was always so excited to see him! Highly recommend for any dog walking or sitting.”
“Sara is wonderful! Our little Jack loves her, and we really appreciate how detailed she is in her care and in her communication. We can’t wait to book with Sara again.”

“Tiffany has been walking my Fiona for a couple weeks now and we couldn’t be happier!!! We are thrilled and privileged to have her in our lives!!! I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you Tiffany. So grateful we have you!!”

“Neshie was so amazing with my Miles! She was super kind, patient, and thorough. While I was on vacation for over a week she arrived every evening between 7:00-7:30 to provide evening walks. She also fed Miles if my house sitter was not around. I hope to have her walk Miles again in the future!!”

About: I have a dog of my own, so I’m very familiar with the daily routine (walks, feeding, and being stared at until I give treats). I’ve also cared for other people’s dogs, so I’m used to different personalities, from super energetic to “I will not move unless bribed.” I’m reliable, patient, and pay attention to the little things that keep dogs happy and comfortable. I treat every dog like my own (yes, that includes talking to them like they’re people). 🐶 I have a flexible schedule and am able to consistently make time for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your dog, and I’m happy to adjust to their routine. Whether your dog needs regular exercise, quick check-ins, or extra attention, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for and not rushed. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every dog I care for. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to walk routines and any special needs. I stay attentive during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure your dog feels secure and relaxed. I treat every home with respect and every dog like my own.
About: I have two cats of my own that were 3 months old when adopted. I have also taken care of friends dogs from time to time. I am working part time and can provide the best care for your pet that best fits both our schedules. I am able to dedicate a few hours per day. I am always alert and aware of changes in body language. I make sure pets are comfortable and happy in any environment. Positive reinforcements is a must!

About: I’ve always had dogs as a meaningful part of my life even though my current lease doesn’t allow me to have one of my own. For the last six years, I helped take care of a previous partner's dog, including watching him alone for weeks or even a month at a time. He was adopted and mildly reactive, so I learned to be attentive to body language, manage space around triggers, keep walks calm and positive, and make sure they felt safe while still getting plenty of stimulation. I’ve also cared for my sister’s dogs, including a rambunctious, high-energy German shepherd puppy and a mature Australian shepherd, so I’m comfortable with smart, active dogs who need more than a quick walk around the block. I especially love connecting with intelligent dogs who thrive on enrichment, structure, and engagement, whether that means sniffy walks, varied routes, leash games, practicing cues, or just giving them the time and attention they need to feel fulfilled. I recently moved to Brooklyn, and spending time with dogs feels like the best possible way to explore the neighborhood. I enjoy letting dogs sniff, investigate, and set a natural rhythm instead of rushing them through a walk. I work from home three days a week, which also gives me a lot of flexibility for housesitting and daytime care. I’m responsible, communicative, and happy to adapt to your dog’s routine and personality - the more you can tell me about how to show them a good time, the better a job I can do! I also love being around cats, whether they're cuddly or aloof - I'm happy to hang out and keep an eye on them as needed :) I work from home up to 3 days (any days) a week and am very flexible weekends and evenings; I'm happy to discuss how I can meet your needs and match your schedule! I care for pets with attentiveness and respect for their normal routine. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos based on your communication preferences, and I’ll never be unreachable or “off grid” while I’m caring for your fur baby. If your pet has any special instructions, including medications, exercise needs, reactivity, feeding routines, or comfort preferences, I genuinely want to know so I can follow them carefully and consistently. For dogs and social cats, I like to make the time feel like a little local staycation rather than just basic care. When we’re not out walking, exploring, sniffing, or playing, your dog will be welcome to hang out near me, cuddle up, or relax in the same space. As a rule, I won’t leave pets crated, confined or ignored. I’m also very mindful that I’m a guest in your home. I’ll keep things clean, respect your space, and leave minimal traces behind. My goal is to be your peace of mind while you’re away: someone who keeps your pet comfortable, loved, and well cared for until you’re back home. Finally, you don't have to blindly trust me on a whim - I'm happy to do a meet and greet to get to know you and your pets in your space. I want picking me to feel like the perfect choice before you even leave your pets with me :)
“Joana was right on time and did a great job walking Athena. Athena was so happy to see Joana. She followed all of instructions and provided regular updates about her arrival status.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child. I have experience of working with dogs of any age: little puppies to senior dogs. I enjoy taking care of animals and bringing them joy during walks and play dates. I am currently a on my last year of high school and due to that I have lots of free time. I am usually home by 12pm and have rest of the day to take care of pets. Except Saturdays since I work once a week. I have a doggy park 10 minutes away from my house where other dogs can become a company for a pet. If dog is not allowed/does not like being in contact with other animals the rest of the park can become a great place for walks and play dates.

Layla came every evening for 10 nights to take our pup out for walks while I recovered from surgery. She was punctual, reliable and friendly with our reluctant, nervous dog. She got Rosie to look forward to seeing her and was so patient and sweet with Rosie. We’d absolutely book Layla again, Rosie will look forward to seeing her friend! Highly recommend

Hannah helped us out with walks this week and she was wonderful! She was patient with my dog and let her warm up the first 2 days and by the last walk my dog was so excited to see her and give her kisses. I would absolutely book with her again and would recommend her to anyone! Thanks Hannah 🐾

Megan was amazing with my dog, Callie. She was reliable, attentive, and so kind—always making sure Callie was well taken care of and happy. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Callie was in good hands. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!

Robert is wonderful! He’s taken great care of my new rescue pup Bette as soon as I had to go back to the office. He’s been so patient, and I’ve appreciated his guidance on how to help Bette get more comfortable on her new city walks. Thank you, Robert! I appreciate you so much.
