Pet Sitting Central Park

About: Dogs are a part of the family and they deserve the best life possible through all the sniffaries and enrichment their hearts desire. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and I currently have an aussiedoodle with special dietary and grooming needs and foster pups through MuddyPaws NYC. I only take 1 dog at a time (in addition to my own) so your pup gets the attention they need. While I’m not a professional dog trainer, I strongly believe in constantly and consistently training dogs through positive reinforcement only. I do not go to dog parks or let dogs off leash for their own safety and to avoid reactivity. I’m well versed in dog body language and believe mental enrichment activities along with physical exercise leads to a happier pup. I love taking pups to any place that is dog-friendly because they too deserve to explore the world and live their best lives possible. I have a flexible schedule during the week which allows me to care for all your dog’s needs and take them out for regular walks. It would be helpful to have a general overview of your pup’s personality and I’ll follow any instructions you have. To avoid reactivity and for safety, I do not take dogs into dog parks or let them off leash ever. I have a patio for smaller dogs (20lbs or less) to go outside but larger dogs are not allowed since it is 5 stories up and has a 4ft wall on 2 sides. I will care for your dog like they’re my own since they deserve the world.

“Emily was FANTASTIC with walking and spending time with our two pugs. So communicative asked great questions which I super appreciated, would recommend to anyone!”

Susan S.

“Mary was great! Super communicative and took great care of our kitty while we were gone. It was so much easier to be away from home knowing that she was watching our cat, and all the pictures and updates we got were awesome!”

Alice S.

“Eileen took wonderful care of my 3 year old cat while I was away. She was responsible, communicative, and made sure my cat got lots of attention and pets. I also appreciated how clean and tidy she kept my apartment. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Caroline B.

“Arianna was amazing with my cat! She arrived right on time and I appreciated all the photos and videos she sent while I was away. Will definitely use her again!”

Elise C.

“Monique did a wonderful job checking in on and feeding our cat for a long weekend while we were away. It was our first time leaving him so we were a bit nervous, and Monique really came through for us (at the last minute as well!). She is warm and communicative, and most importantly our cat seems to love her.”

Nathan V.

“Roman was fantastic with Eminem, my 16 year old cat who needs some medication and extra attention. It’ll definitely be rebooking him in the future.”

Chris R.

“This is our second time with Victor and he’s great. He’s reliable and responsive as well as detail oriented and kind. He cares about your pets emotional well being and is patient to befriend them alongside of all the normal responsibilities of pet sitting. It’s hard to find people that understand and respect animals individual autonomy and we know our girl is in good hands with him.”

Emma H.

“Elva did a great job with our 10-week old puppy! We contacted her on short notice when we realized our schedules would prevent us from checking on our pup during the day. She responded within minutes and answered all of our questions beforehand. She arrived right on time and took care of our pup, which was such a relief for both of us. Highly recommend, and hope to use her again in the future!”

Julie H.

“Ody was amazing! My dog has a little bit of stranger danger, but she warmed up to Ody super quickly. Ody was also very prompt with her drop in visits and you can tell that she is very knowledgeable about caring for dogs. Would 100% rebook with Ody and recommend her!”

Jenny Y.

“Juan was great during our drop in visit and even got my pretty shy cat to come out for some time :) He responded super timely and was responsive when setting up the booking”

Mackenzie A.

“Jen was great, sent me lots of photos of Oona while I was away and took very good care of her! Will definitely book with Jen again in the future!”

About: I have always been an animal lover and grew up surrounded by pets of all kinds! Dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragons, hamsters, etc. I have always been the "pet-sitter" for friends and family, and through that I have gained experience caring for all kinds of animals. From pets that need medication or special attention, senior animals, and puppies and kittens, I have experience with all of them :) If you have any questions or want to learn more about me, feel free to reach out or ask questions! I’m currently in between jobs, so this is my full time job where I can dedicate lots of time to caring for your pet! I had a very open schedule right now! I am very good at following instructions and will ask questions if needed. I will make sure your pet feels loved and safe, whether it's for a drop in or going for a walk. I also love sending pictures, so I will take a lot of cute pictures of your pet to show that they are well cared for!

“Lorraine was wonderful with my puppy!”

Emanuele & Michal L.

Korina L.

“Martina was great and very communicative the whole time! She sent lots of pictures and followed all instructions. Based on the video and pictures she sent, I know my cats loved her—she gave them plenty of affection and play time!”

About: I've owned and cared for dogs for over 10 years, and always take a loving, friendly, and compassionate approach when it comes to pet care. I also have years of experience with watching and walking friends' dogs when they're away, making sure the dogs have everything they need and more. I also have experience with taking care of cats and rabbits! I work from home on Mondays and Thursdays and I'm around most weekends (Saturdays and Sundays). I will often be available on these days to care for your dog! I will follow any and all instructions you have for your dog while in your home, and will make sure they're getting the attention and care they need, from giving them walks, feeding, play time, and more. I'm very attuned to the needs of dogs, and know that I'd offer quality, reliable care for your pet.

“Was a last minute booking and Ri was on time and enthusiastic about it!”

Maureen S.

“Mariana took great care of my two cats! She was very communicative, took tons of pictures, and seemed to genuinely care about the kitties. Would absolutely book with her again!”
