Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.

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: I've taken care of dogs, guinea pigs, and fish. I myself have a seven year old bichon who I take care of. I can take your fur babies on walks, a personal pet picnic, or even take them to a pet park so they can socialize with other pets. I am currently a full time teacher. So I am available after 2:30 and full time on weekends. To schedule care time, please give me two weeks notice. Thank you! I can take care of your dog in your own home. Of course, safety comes first, please leave me notes so that I will be aware of it.

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 got my first family dog when I was 8, and caring for him sparked a long-standing love for dogs. Since then, I’ve helped take care of him and other dogs, gaining hands-on experience with their daily needs, training, and routines. I currently work 9-6PM ET, but can be there to take care of your dog any time after that, and any time on the weekends. I provide attentive and personalized care for pets, whether in my home or the client’s. This includes feeding according to their schedule and dietary needs, providing fresh water, giving daily walks and exercise, offering playtime and mental stimulation, and ensuring lots of love and attention. I also follow any specific instructions from the pet owner, monitor for health or behavior changes, and maintain a safe, clean, and comfortable environment at all times.

Thank you, Brianna, for taking care of my elderly cats for two weeks! Usually, when I leave them, they get upset and could pee all over and make a mess. At this time, I came back to the clean apartment, and my cats were healthy and cheerful 😻.

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’ve looked after dogs of all types of dogs. Small, large, fluffy, skinny, you name it. Also love cats and looking after them as well. Would love to expand my horizons to other, less conventional pets some day. Maybe reptiles… I have lived with one or more pets consistently for more than half my life. Many pets and creatures I’ve called my friends. Would love to make it a full-time job someday. I act lovingly and compassionately towards the animals I’m watching, but show them that things like jumping and biting are not okay when considering how their trainers want their training schedule to look like. Every animal is different, so I take an individual approach.

About: Now accepting spring and summer bookings! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and believe they should always be treated like family. I began caring for animals in 1996 and have over 20 years of experience with dog walking, pet sitting, boarding, drop-in visits, playtime, and administering medications. I provide calm, reliable, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, a senior, or needs extra support, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I specialize in consistent morning walks and in-home care for busy professionals and families in Fresh Meadows and surrounding neighborhoods (within a 3–5 mile radius). I enjoy building trust with every pet I care for and always treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in experienced, dependable hands while you’re away. I look forward to meeting your furry family! Use my promo code MARLES24678 for a special new client discount. My schedule currently allows for morning availability for walks and pet care, as well as pet sitting. I am also accepting bookings for summer 2026 for walks, pet sitting, and boarding. I’m happy to answer questions and help find a schedule that works for you and your pet. I follow all instructions provided by each pet parent carefully to ensure consistency in the pet’s routine and comfort. I prioritize each pet’s safety, well-being, and emotional needs, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special care requirements. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection based on their personality and energy level. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and cues so I can respond appropriately and keep them comfortable and happy.

Karlos did an incredible job taking care of my two cat brothers while I was away for the week. He made sure they were wellfed, spent time playing with them, and sent frequent photos and updates, which I especially appreciated while I was on the other side of the country. He truly went above and beyond. Not only did he care for the cats, but he also helped fix their water fountain after one of them managed to knock it over and set up the pet cameras again after they were attacked by curious paws. Beyond that, it's clear that Karlos has a tremendous amount of experience with animals. We talked about his love for cats and dogs, his work caring for reptiles, and how much animals mean to him. For me, the most important quality in a pet sitter is someone who genuinely loves and understands animals, and Karlos absolutely embodies that. I would gladly recommend Karlos to anyone looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable pet sitter, and I will definitely reach out to him again in the future if I need help with my cats. Thank you, Karlos!
