You couldn't find a better sitter for your fur babies. Candice was attentive to their needs, provided the loving nurturing they craven and sent the best pictures we have ever gotten. We recommend Candice highly and will be using her for our future needs. Our dogs are truly in love with her and all the tlc she gave them.

Jessie is awesome! She’s a great communicator and was able to fit us in eventhough our booking with last minute and her schedule was extremely busy. It was a huge stress relief to know our babies were being taken care of. Thank so much Jessie, we really really appreciate you!

Hallie was just an amazing caregiver for my cats while I was away! The photos she sent of the girls and details of each visit added to my peace of mind. She watered my plants, took in my mail and brought my trash to the curb, as well. I would recommend Hallie without hesitation and hopefully can utilize her expert services in the future.

Kelsey is great! It was clear our pup loved her at their first meeting, and Kelsey took great care of him during a check-in visit. It turns out I didn’t have service while she was with him, so even when I was unable to get back to her question in a timely manner, Kelsey problem-solved and took care of Felix perfectly. We’re glad to have her as part of our pup’s care team!

About: I’m a reliable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. At home, I have two dogs and a sweet, feisty kitty, so I’m used to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. From playful walks to calm cuddle time, I make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and comfort they’re used to while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work weekdays and typically get out of work at 3PM on Fridays, which gives me time in the afternoons for check-ins, walks, and spending time with your pets—whether that’s getting your dog out for some exercise or hanging out and giving your cat some attention. Saturdays I usually have open availability as well, making it a great day for longer visits, walks, or drop-ins, as long as I don’t have a ministry commitment or travel scheduled. I’m committed to being reliable and intentional with the time I do have, making sure your pets are cared for and comfortable. I care for pets with a strong focus on safety, consistency, and making them feel comfortable in their environment. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and boundaries so they feel safe and not overwhelmed. I’m mindful of keeping doors secure, monitoring leash safety on walks, and making sure pets are never put in risky situations. I also keep your home respected and tidy while I’m there. When caring for pets in my own home (if applicable for the service), I provide a calm, supervised environment where pets are never left in unsafe situations and are gradually introduced to any new surroundings or animals if needed. I prioritize comfort, structure, and attention so pets feel secure and cared for. Overall, my goal is to create a peaceful, trustworthy experience where your pet feels safe, seen, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: If you’re looking for someone to just drop a bowl of kibble and scroll on their phone, I’m probably not your person. But if you want someone who will treat your pet like a misunderstood genius or a retired diplomat, we’re going to get along great! I work for the MTA as a train operator in the city, but on my days off I love taking my corgi Zuko on long walks and playing in our yard. I've had dogs and cats since I was young, and have a special affinity for all animals. If you want your fur baby treated like the king or queen they know they are while you're away, look no further! I am currently off Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays so I will have the full 24 hours of those days to walk, play, entertain, and care for your pets. I have a large unfenced yard on a very quiet street off the main road. I also have a extremely friendly and energetic corgi named Zuko who will assuredly be your pets new best friend. There will be tons of playing, running, fetch and more to ensure your pet has the best experience staying at their home away from home.

About: Ive had multiple pets as long as ive been alive both cats and dogs! In high school I volunteered with a small dog adoption center in New Hampshire called Mary's dogs, where I worked with older dogs and puppy's in need of homes. I also took and animal science class in my Junior year and was dog CPR certified. I know basic animal first aid as well. Overall I absolutely adore animals of any kind and am willing to work with any pets! This is currently my only job, so I am available almost any time to spend time with and take care of your fuzzy family members. My preferred bookings is after 10am but I absolutely can make exceptions! I currently live with 2 dogs, a Labrador retriever and a Golden retriever, as well as 2 cats. I feed them all twice daily as well as keep multiple sources of water available around the house. I will be flexible and feed your animals with whatever schedule you give me!

Chloe was great at caring for Wilbur and Mesu! Mesu being the "old man", has also been very apprehensive of strangers. I swore Chloe wouldn't even get the chance to meet him. Yet, he came out t9lo greet her and even allowed for scratches! Chloe always showed up on time, and went above to make sure both cats were comfortable.

About: I am an animal lover. I have had animals my entire life ( cats, dogs, snakes, tarantulas, lizards, fish, turtles, and chinchillas). I understand the responsibility it takes to care for all animals . I am very patient and show compassion to the needs of all animals. I am currently the owner of 3 cats and a dog. I find being around animals very relaxing. I enjoy playing with them and look forward to making a connection with the animal so that it feels safe and joyful. I also have a great understanding to the different temperaments of all animals. I would love for the owner and animal to feel that their in good hands at all times. I will follow all the rules and wishes that the owner feels necessary for their animals to feel safe. I am currently working as a school teacher for 21 years. I am available 3:30pm- 10:00pm on weekdays and on the weekend I am available all weekend. Available majority of the summer as well. I have 2 cats that are house bound. I have an Alaskan Klee Kai that is allowed to be out with supervision. We are not fenced in.

Erik is excellant with Laila and there are not many people that Laila would allow to give her a belloy rub. Not ony is it apparent that Erik is great and caring with dogs and all animals alike, Erik also has full command of Laila during her walk, which is important when you have a 70 pound Bulldog.

About: I have cared for rabbits, cats, and dogs over the course of my life. I grew up with a rescued kitten who lived a healthy, active life for 15 years before he developed feline diabetes. For two years, we gave him daily injections to maintain his health as best we could. When I began life outside of my childhood home, I adopted a lion head rabbit that lived long enough to become my children’s first pet. While I was living in Queens, New York, I spent a year dog walking and pet sitting around Astoria and Long Island City. My responsibilities included individual and group dog walks, in-home care for elderly and special needs dogs and cats, cat care, litter box/wee wee pad changing, and feeding. I am currently a stay at home mom and freelance writer, so my schedule is very flexible between the hours of 8am and 3pm while my children are at school. As a cat mom, I understand how important safety is when it comes to animal care. From the moment I walk into the house, keeping your pet safe is my priority. During my time with your pet, I will do my due diligence to make sure your pet is safe and happy from harnessing and leashing, through the walk, and finally my departure. I know the importance of staying alert on walks, constantly taking in the environment for any potential dangers from other animals, people, and vehicles.

I’m happy to give a 5-star review for Walfredo! We left our three dogs—Bailey, Ellie, and Lottie—in his care, and he was absolutely wonderful with them. He made sure they were well-fed, played with them, and even joked that he “tired them out”—which is no easy task! Walfredo truly loves animals, and it shows. Our dogs loved him right back. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. Highly recommend!
