About: I have great experience with all types of animals in all ranges of age and necessities. I have worked at a barn as well as volunteer at my local animal shelter. I also grew up fostering puppies and kittens as young as days old. I have multiple pets of my own and they are my whole world, I treat any animal with the same level of respect. I work part time but my schedule is very flexible with an enough time in advance. I am free pretty much all day on weekends and most consistently after 3 on weekdays. However my schedule does shift and I am an early riser so I can make most other times work. I currently do not offer home services in my personal house. At a clients home I will listen to whatever instructions are given and keep everything as similar as possible for overnight and drop-in visits to help keep stress levels down for your animal.

“Walked my dog over the weekend when I was away”

“Great to have such a reliable, experienced pro to address Zadie's needs. Surpassed expectations and it's reassuring to know she was able to manage an encounter with another dog smoothly to prevent a dog fight. Phew! Will be asking to return as much as possible!”

“Glenn and Diana’s care of my big dog has been such a weight off my shoulders. He has some special needs and they didn’t hesitate to help. Also so appreciative of the questions they ask and how much they care!”

About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds. I have a deep respect for all animals, including those that are shy or have special needs, and I'm committed to giving every animal the care they deserve. I'm available on most weekends and holidays. I occasionally have weekdays open as my work schedule allows. I will have Fridays available for part of the summer. When introducing myself I allow the animal to approach me first, I take things slow if they're shy or nervous. I'm familiar with dog and cat body language so I can recognize signs of stress. When walking dogs I'm always aware of my surroundings and will adjust the route if I need to.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years through a mix of personal, volunteer, and professional experience. I grew up pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family, so I’ve been trusted with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from a young age. My parents also have two yorkies who I’ve helped care for over the years, which taught me a lot about routines, patience, and understanding each dog’s unique quirks. I also spend a couple of years working in a veterinary hospital in a client-care role. Even though I wasn’t a vet tech, I interacted with dogs every day and learned how to stay calm, read their body language, and make them feel comfortable in a new or unfamiliar environments. That experience helped me become confident handling shy, energetic, senior, and nervous pups. Between my personal background and my time in a vet setting, I’m comfortable with a wide range of dog temperaments and needs. I’m gentle, reliable, and always focused on making sure each dog feels safe, understood, and cared for. I work a hybrid job, which gives me a really flexible schedule for pet care. On my work from home days, I’m able to do quick walks throughout the day, especially around lunchtime or early afternoon. I’m available for drop/ins with plenty of notice. I’m also able to house sit on the days I’m remote or on weekends, and I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress free. If you need someone who can be around, keep your dog company, and provide reliable care during the day, my schedule works really well for that. Just let me know what you need, I’m happy to work with your routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. When I’m caring for a dog in your home, I keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Same feeding schedule, same walking style, same rules you use every day. I take the time to learn what helps your dog feel secure, whether that’s a quiet approach, extra playtime, or a slow, sniff-filled walk. I’m very respectful of your space and treat your home the same way I’d want someone to treat mine. I make sure doors are locked, lights are used responsibly, and everything is left clean and exactly how I found it. During visits or house-sitting, I keep a calm environment so your pet feels relaxed and safe while you’re away. I always pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. If something comes up, you’ll hear from me right away, communication and transparency are really important to me. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet and your home are in good hands.

“Jessica went above and beyond for Daisy! She was so patient and understanding of our shelter dog's need for slow intros and some extra support learning to walk politely on the leash. She was super communicative and took care to follow all the instructions we gave her. We recommend her highly to anyone who needs walking/petsitting services!”

“Sarah was wonderful! She was able to help us out last minute this morning after a last minute work schedule change and being new to town we didn't have a support system established yet. We are very appreciative of her support and attentiveness with our girl :)”

Carleigh P.

“She was very good with Kozey. Was very aware of heat and did alternative activity with her. Thank you!”

About: My husband and I have a dog named Jax, he just turned 7 and is such a goofball. We have taken care of dogs for a long time now and Jax loves having friends over! Sean works from home so we are able to give your dog plenty of breaks. Our day normally consists of 2 good walks morning and night, an afternoon quick walk and potty breaks in between! We live in an apartment along Washington Square Park, so we walk the park every day! We try on days off to find trails around to get out as well!

About: Trusted, Experienced Pet Care You Can Feel Good About Taking care of animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve spent years volunteering at Humane Society shelters, working hands-on with dogs and cats of all temperaments, from energetic and playful to shy and anxious. That experience taught me how to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve also rescued and raised my own pets—Bella (brown tabby), Nugget (orange tabby), and Mumble (Jack Russell Terrier from a kill shelter)—so I understand firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your animal. Over the years, I’ve gained real experience walking, feeding, and pet sitting for animals with different personalities and needs. I know how to read behavior, build trust quickly, and adjust my care to each individual pet. What sets me apart: • Calm, patient approach (great for anxious or shy pets) • Reliable, detail-oriented, and highly communicative • Experience with both dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels • Genuine passion for animal welfare and safety I treat every pet like my own—not just making sure they’re cared for, but making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. You won’t have to wonder how your pet is doing. I provide consistent updates so you always have peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone dependable, experienced, and truly invested in your pet’s well-being, I’d love to help.

“We couldn’t be happier to have Stephanie caring for Brodie. Finding the right person to walk / care for your pet is hard, we lucked out with Stephanie. We will be using Stephanie again, and if your reading this review, you should to. Thank you Stephanie..”

“Emily is incredible! She goes above and beyond sharing photos after walks and giving plenty of exercise. My goldendoodles absolutely adored her when I was on vacation and I was so grateful that she could do mornings walks. I highly recommend Emily when she came to visit before, she was super attentive asked questions, was super knowledgeable already and knew exactly what to do! I will definitely be rebooking with Emily for any future dog needs 😊”

“Kateri is amazing! I needed to come into town at the last minute for a court appearance, and she was able to cheerfully meet me and my dog in front of the courthouse and take him on a fantastic outing. She had a plan to take him on a nature walk, which was far better than anything I could’ve imagined for him. He came back nicely, tuckered out and snoozed in the back of the car the whole drive home.”

“Merissa and Nick were awesome!!! Exactly what we were looking for and took care of our pup well <3”

“Leydi is a great dog walker. She is reliable, friendly, and is great with our 10 year old boxer dog. It would be a mistake if you didn’t hire her for your dog walking/sitting needs!”
