Dog Sitting in Brooklyn

About: I grew up on a horse farm. I always had dogs for most of my life . Except when I lived in an apartment for a short time where I could not have one. My sister and I use to have fake dog shows as kids. It was so much fun. Now I have 2 loveable doggies of my own that i adopted . They love our fenced in backyard and my daughter and I walk them every day as a team.When Taylor was a toddler we would go out and visit grandma and aunt / sister and give chino her dog lots of love and walks. Also in the last 5 years my late moms dog rosie who was also adopted. Dogs are great.

About: I grew up on a farm, which is pretty much where my animal obsession began! I was surrounded by cows, pigs, horses, chickens, cats, dogs — basically if it had fur, feathers, or hooves, I probably helped take care of it. Growing up around so many different animals taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and how every animal has their own unique personality. Ever since then, animals have just naturally been a huge part of my life! I’m a full-time nurse with a flexible schedule, since I only work 3–4 days a week. That means I have plenty of time, energy, and attention to dedicate to your furry friends! Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I accommodate to every pets needs! I have crates, I do structured playtime and go on long walks to exert energy. I also have a friendly dogs who would love to keep your pet company.

“Jolie was great with my three dogs. They clearly enjoyed her visits with her and she sent me lots of pictures. Followed all the notes I left and I felt very confident and comfortable with her caring for my pack.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, starting with in-home dog sitting as a teenager and continuing ever since. I have extensive experience with larger breeds, including German Shepherds and other high-energy dogs, and I’m very comfortable handling strong, active personalities. I’m also a Malinois owner, so I understand the level of structure, exercise, and attention that working breeds need. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just consistent, reliable care, I’m someone you can trust to treat them like my own. In addition to dogs, I’ve also provided in-home care for cats and am comfortable with a variety of temperaments and needs. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am a part-tome firefighter/paramedic and have a fairly flexible schedule. I typically end up having a lot of days free especially this summer. Reach out with your needs and we can see what we can work out! I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for your pets. As a firefighter/paramedic, I’m trained to stay calm, aware, and handle unexpected situations quickly and responsibly. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive to behavior changes and make sure your pet is always secure on walks and in the home. I’m experienced with large and high-energy dogs, so I’m confident handling strong or reactive dogs safely. Clear communication is important to me, and I’ll keep you updated so you always feel comfortable and informed while you’re away.

About: I grew up taking care of many different animals but I’ve always been fond of dogs the most! The last couple years I started dog sitting for coworkers, family and neighbors. I would say I am very experienced when it comes to animals:) Mondays and Wednesdays I don’t work, along with some weekends. Mornings to early afternoons works best for my schedule. Summertime hours will be more flexible. Your pups safety is my number one priority, along with your home. Leaving instructions for myself would be very helpful that way I know I’m doing my best for you and your animal.

About: I have had dogs since my childhood and have worked with breeds of different sizes and backgrounds, including some with special needs. In my home life, I have two cats that I adore and spend much of my free time with. I’m available all day on weekends, as well as from 5:30pm onward on weekdays (typically). If you have specific requirements for your animal let me know and we can create a schedule that works best for you! I can perform any specific needs that your pet may need. One of my own pets has special medical requirements, so I am familiar with taking care of animals that need extra care.

“Nina is the kindest pet care giver I could hope for!! She's also very caring about our family as a whole. She's prompt in responses as well, which I truly appreciate!”

“Jake is a fantastic dog sitter. We are so fortunate to have him with our older rescue dog! He is attentive to her needs and we appreciate his dedication.”

“Whitney was great! She came in for a drop-in visit while we were away for a day trip. Silly Millie got into things she wasn't supposed to and Whitney gladly put things away. She was also super prompt with responding and it was easy setting up times to pick up and drop off keys. She also offered to come again later in the day in the case that we were coming back later than expected.”

“Heather is a blessing to my dog family! One of the most compassionate, understanding and knowledgeable humans I’ve had the pleasure of coming across in a long time. She respects each of my four dogs in their own way, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch over them while I’m away. Thank you Heather, you have no idea how stressful and unbearable it was without meeting you. I appreciate everything you do!”

Sarah R.

“Elizabeth was a life saver! She did such an amazing job with our dog who can be a bit of a handful! Very professional and cared for Stella like she was her own, I was really nervous leaving her with someone new for the first time and Elizabeth put our minds at ease. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Lifelong pet owner and experienced sitter! Having managed a multi-pet household (3 dogs, 2 cats), I’m an expert at maintaining routines, administering care, and ensuring every pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. All of my pets were specific in their needs and that individualized care is the best route. Pet sitting turned into a side hustle during college, and I loved it so much that I continued to balance it in my schedule after I graduated. As a teacher, I bring patience and organization to every visit, ensuring your furry family members get the care they deserve. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy puppy play to the specific boundaries of a senior cat. Before the school year comes to a close on June 5th, I will only be able to care for a pet before 7:30am and after 4pm. Once I finish up with teaching classes, I will have a very flexible schedule to help out whenever needed! I treat your home with the utmost respect and your pets with the deepest affection. My goal is to maintain their familiar routines in their own sanctuary, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease until you return.

“Sabrina is great! I know my dog Remi is in good hands with her.”

“Hillary did an awesome job checking in on my cats while we were away for a few days. They are both very shy, but she got them to come out the first day she fed them!”

About: I have had pets most of my life. I had primarily dogs growing up and primarily cats as an adult but I love both equally. Animals are great companions that deserve greatness just like us. I am currently available most of the time! My only thing in life is my two year old son and he loves all animals as well! Whether it’s throwing a ball for a pup or snuggling a cat, we got you covered. I am comfortable working wherever I’m needed as well as whenever. As long as I know the animals temperament and schedule if applicable I can accommodate.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old and dog sit for family and friends. I have taken care of outdoor dogs and indoor dogs! I currently work full time and am available in the mornings, evenings and weekends to walk dogs and take care of dogs! Please let me know your preference! I can easily crate a dog if needed. I am available to walk dogs anytime and live near a park! I am also available to help in a client’s home to care for a pet.

About: I am able to administer any medications that are needed and I have experience with both senior animals and extremely young animals! I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am available anytime just message me! I don’t have much going on other than taking care of all my animals so I have plenty of time throughout the week. Safety and trust are my number one priorities so if their are specific things you need or want to be done to ensure your animals safety please don’t hesitate to let me know!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11, have helped out friends and family and coworkers on long vacations; and, eventually, I adopted and trained a dog of my own from Fetch (local foster rescue here in Madison!). I love dogs deeply, and I love walks almost as much! I’ve worked long hours most of my student and adult life, so I understand how important it is to have someone that cares for your pet as much as you while you’re away. Whether it’s work, family/friends, sabbatical/vacation, or a break for solo time, I get how important the routine and schedule is for your pet. Or to have someone you trust step up for a brief period of time while you’re busy. Whether they need snuggles, long walks, or even runs, I’d be overjoyed to take care of your loved one. Their world is only as big as we make it, so it’s a privilege to help expand theirs with lots to sniff and see! I’m currently not working while I focus on my health and family, so I am able to help with your midday, or evening, walks M-F. In your home, I can pop in and out for the walk: I have plenty of poop bags and treats to spare so no need to provide those. I do ask for a leash and/or harness to be provided as these are specific to each dog, and I want them to have the best fit.

“Sara was great! I will definitely be using her in the future. She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. She hung out with our cat, emptied the litter boxes and even brought in our mail.”

Jackie R.

“Hayley is awesome! She treated our cats exactly as we would have treated them - with kindness and gentleness. She spent some extra time petting them and getting to know them even though we had only asked for drop in visits. We would have her take care of them again in a heartbeat!”
