“Second time having Sylvia watch my senior cats and she’s great! She keeps me updated throughout the whole visit and lets me know that everything has been done along with pictures. She follows directions really well and asks questions to make sure my cats are comfortable. I will be having Sylvia watch my cats again in the near future”
“Lil helped us out very last minute with taking care of our sweet and sassy kitty. Not only was Lil an absolute sweetheart and saved the day, but our shy girl came out to spend time with Lil and actually played with her. I couldn't recommend Lil enough, and will for sure request her for our next time away. Thank you!!”
“Urusha was awesome! She took great care of my two cats and all my plants, made sure my cats got their treats, sent me pictures every time she visited, and even cleaned up whenever she found a mess. The cats were super chill, and everything looked perfect. Definitely would recommend and would definitely use her again in the future!”
“She made leaving our fur babies at home worry free. Kaitlyn is extremely sweet, courteous, friendly, and professional. She goes above and beyond. The meows 100% approved. Our old guy that can be very shy warmed up to her. If you need a pet sitter, Kaitlyn is the best!”
“Jessica is wonderful. She came prepared to our meet and greet with questions and notes and she always responds quickly when you send her a message. She followed all feeding and medication instructions. My kitty was in great hands and was so calm when I came home. Will definitely use her services again in the future.”

About: Hi, I'm Maria! I adore dogs and cats! I've been walking and sitting dogs for over 13 years and a professional pet photographer for 8 years. I grew up with lots of cats and dogs, and I volunteered at an animal hospital while in college. Today, I have a friendly female creme Shiba Inu, Lula. I offer 1/2-hour or full-hour dog walks and pets sitting in the Whitestone and Beechhurst areas of Queens. I will take your puppy to the park for a stroll, a dog park or just around your area - whatever you prefer. Dogs in my trust for walks are NEVER left alone or unsupervised. I always "clean up" after dogs in my care and keep them on the leash unless, with your permission, we go to a secure fenced dog park. Whatever your instructions I will make sure they are followed exactly as you request. I'm a punctual, responsible, and respectful person who loves dogs. I will take good care of your puppy as if they were my own. I will make sure they feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention and affection during their stay with me! As a lifelong owner of dogs and cats, providing a consistent schedule of daily care, feeding, walks, and affection comes naturally to me and my schedule. I provide care, feeding, clean up and affection as instructed. I'm also happy to follow any other instructions that may be specific to each pet.
About: I'm available for dog walks weekday mornings and afternoons, 8 AM to 3 PM. I'm looking to increase my daily steps to improve my health, and I'd love to help your dog get their exercise in at the same time! While my professional experience is new, you can count on me for punctual, attentive walks, ensuring your furry friend gets the fresh air and activity they need during these specific hours. Offering dog walking or drop-in visits from 8 AM to 3 PM from Monday to Friday. No weekend and overnight services available at this moment. Please let me know as many details as possible about your furry friends prior to the services. I will only use food that you provide and will not bring any food with me.
“Antoinette was wonderful. She stayed in communication with me while I was away and went above and beyond to make sure my cats were fed, happy and comfortable. I would absolutely use her again !”

About: I’ve taken care of many different pets from birds to large dogs all my life , I’ve owned dogs of my own since they were puppies as well and I currently have a dachshund puppy! I promise to take excellent care of you pet. I’m currently looking for this to be my full time job so I will have so much time to take care of your pets! Im available for boarding any day of the week except Saturdays and Sundays for now. I’m also available at any time ! I have a fenced yard completely secure plus I will be with ur pet the whole time if they go out to the yard. I can also easily crate your pet if needed. I do have a mini dachshund puppy currently in my house if your not comfortable with another dog there that can also be sorted out! There are no children under 12 in my household.
About: I have grown up around dogs as well as owned my own dogs for many years. I am well versed in walking, feeding, bathing, and simple grooming techniques. Although a lot of my experience comes from my own personal experience, I have worked at dog grooming facilities and dog boarding facilities, so I've gained experience with large breed dogs from those places. (I will only be available to offer my services during the Summer and mid December to January) Although I do have extracurriculars (dance and horseback riding), I have a fairly free schedule that will allow me to work with various clients and their schedules! I always make sure to double check the fit of harnesses/collars to ensure the safety of pets on a walk. I am capable of putting an animal back in a crate if necessary as well.
About: I have cared for animals since I was 8 years old! I have no preference; dogs, cats, birds, I could never choose they are all equally loved very much! I have a dog; I have some freedom and flexibility in my schedule to try to match your schedule and provide care for all my clients. Spaces are created in order to fit the need of an individual animal. I do not accept too many animals at a time because I know that each of them deserve much attention and space.
About: I'm an incredibly active individual. I love to lift weights, practice martial arts, hike, and go on runs. This allows me to be an excellent fit for a dog whose energy levels are high. If you'd prefer for me to not just take your dog to the bathroom, but provide them a good amount of exercise as well, I'm a great fit! When I'm not taking care of dogs I work as a writer, director, and editor on films, social media videos, and commercials. If you've ever wanted any photos or videos of you and your four legged friend (or just them) I can provide high quality images/videos for you as well whether you want to just show off to your friends and family or just to have status updates on how your dog is doing. Because I work freelance my schedule tends to be flexible and allows me to set my own hours usually. I will work with you as best as I can to fit your needs within my schedule. I treat dogs very similarly to how I treat people. I show them a great deal of respect, empathy, and love. I do tend to spoil my own dog here and there, but I also try to love him as unconditionally as he does to me. A golden rule I try to follow is treat others the way you want to be treated. Another golden rule I try to follow is to see myself in others. I also apply these two golden rules to my encounters with pets and nature in general.
About: I provide quality drop ins and walks to cats, dogs and any other animals such as turtles, fish or birds. May walk with more than one walker for the same rate. Double the safety and fun for the same price :) I am free to take walks or drop ins on Wednesday-Sunday 10am-8pm for as long as you want. Mondays and Tuesdays are currently unavailable but may be adjusted by special request. I currently do not provide pet sitting at the moment. Leashes and trash bags are expected to be provided by the owner prior to walks. Thank you!

Jen Hsuan L.
“Since we have four very social cats, an in-home sitter is a must for us when we're out of the country. We were so glad Jen-Hsuan, being a true cat enthusiast, could step in. She showed so much patience, allowing our cats to get comfortable with her at their own pace and actively working to connect with them. Every day we were away, Jennifer sent us on-time messages and photos, and it was clear our cats were incredibly happy with her. Returning home to find all our cats just as content and healthy, and our house perfectly tidy, was wonderful. A huge thank you to Jen-Hsuan for all her help, she made our time away completely stress-free!”

Judy has helped me countless times with Tiger. She is thoughtful and caring, and took great care of Tiger. This time I’m gone longer so I asked Judy if she could take Tiger out for a walk. She has no problem with it and took pictures when they were out. Tiger is happy and I’m thankful for Judy’s great work!
Came back to a healthy happy kitty. Plenty of photos sent each day. I have a litter genie & use silica litter, & Morgan followed the instructions on how to use both just fine. Mogan has such a loving personality towards animals & it really shows. Highly recommend!
Emma is a wonderful sitter! We felt at ease being away knowing our cat was in her care. She was very communicative. Our cat warmed up very quickly. She took extra care of our little guy with some extra needs (special diet, medication). Highly recommend Emma. Will be booking again for our next trip!
