Pet Sitting Chelsea

“Crystal takes such good care of our kitties! I know I can trust to leave them in her care and enjoy my trips guilt free because they’re in good hands.”

“Mary is a fantastic cat sitter! She was so communicative & so great with my cat! She fed him, cleaned his litter, and played so much with him!! I also got so many great photos :)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of many sizes for the past 7 years. I run regularly and have plenty of energy to keep up with your pup. And I’ve been a dog owner myself for my whole life! I take care of dogs of all ages and activity levels, and have experience administering medications and tending to dogs with special care needs. Anything your four legged friends need and more, I’m ready to provide. I work remotely and love to take breaks walking dogs! At the moment I am between jobs, so I am filling my time with as much pet sitting as possible! I have my own apartment, so your dog(s) will get my full attention at my home or yours. When sitting I take walks at least every 2 hours, and more often for high energy pets. I am also comfortable with special feeding and medication schedules, and love to care for all the special needs your for your special pets!

“This was my first time using Rover and I was worried about how it would go, but I'm so glad I gave it a try and found Xinyu! She is friendly, positive, and considerate, and really went above what was asked (thank you for taking my packages inside for me..!). Xinyu was diligent with the schedule and followed care instructions to the letter. I would definitely book her again next time I'm out of town. 🖤🐈‍⬛”

“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our cat! She was thoughtful and responsive throughout our time away. We felt so relieved knowing our cat was in such caring hands. We’re so grateful for the wonderful, considerate care she provided and would happily book with her again!”

Rachel A.

“George is an excellent carer for our dogs and very easy to communicate with. On point! Will definitely use the services again!”

“Jessica was amazing! She took wonderful care of our Shelby while we explored the city for a couple of hours! She was attentive, communicative, and such a natural with our pup. We had a peace of mind while we were gone because she kept us updated with photos and messages. Highly recommended and appreciated 💗”

“Jessie is an incredible and honest communicator, making you trust her both with your pet and your place. I would not just recommend her to anyone, but made sure to book her again as I both trust and value her.”

About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs - big and small! I was currently taking care of my Havanese dog Button who made it to her 18th birthday. I am very familiar with the senior care needs if that’s something you are looking for - I do understand the nerves, the needs, the extra attention - I completely get it if you are someone who needs help in that area. I am currently looking for a new role in my career and am happy to help take your dog on a walk in the meantime. I like to take my daily walks around the neighborhood and would be happy to help get your dog some fresh air and stretch their legs if you need it! My husband also works from home some days - some days in office so there is someone at home at most times. My older dog Button lived with my husband & I and stayed indoor mostly to rest since she was a bit older - the biggest safety trick I have for her are steps to the couch and bed to help with her joints and muscles. We also had grippy socks on her, medicine to administer, someone with her all the time, we also had a sling so we could take her everywhere.

“Hahillah did a great job watching my 2 cats while I was gone”

Holden K.

“This is my first time using Rover, and I have had good communication with Christopher. And it is very sweet to read a detailed note of how my cat is doing and seeing his pictures. Overall, I think Christopher made my traveling much worry free. Thank you Chris!”

About: I, too, love long walks around the city no matter the weather! You can count on me to be available, flexible and enthusiastic about taking care of your pet. I have working experience with leash reactive, energetic dogs as well as very motivated and trained herding dogs. I'm comfortable with using specific words when talking to your dog, and understand that every dog owner has their preferences when it comes to the way their dog is cared for. I grew up loving on my family's pit bull mixes that were varying degrees of sweet sleepy heads and strong, willful escape artists with a penchant to run. As a result, I'm experienced with caring for a wide variety of doggy personalities and behaviors, from dogs that thrive with very specific commands to dogs that just love a laidback walk around the neighborhood. As any good dog walker would, I'll make sure they have lots of fun (and stay out of trouble)! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! :) Also: I speak French, in case that's helpful for you! I'm a recent UC Berkeley graduate who just moved to Chelsea. I'm currently looking for a job, so I am flexible on availability and timing. I would love to add some consistent dog walks and pet visits to my routine, and am open to one-off bookings, too. I will not be bringing pets into my home, and I'm not currently looking to house sit. That said, I will happily comply to any considerations when it comes to your space.

“Summer was great with little Ruby! She's an excellent sitter and took great care of my puppy -- especially appreciate her help on such last minute notice. I really appreciate her attentiveness and she sent me photos of Ruby while I was out. This was my pup's first time with a sitter and it was clear she was in great and caring hands. Highly recommend! Thanks Summer!!”

Roseanne T.

“Sydney was great. I booked her for a pretty last minute walk and she still agreed to meet my dog beforehand. She was very sweet, good communication, and my dog seemed to really like her. I would definitely book her for another walk.”

Allison R.

“We continue to use Dmitrii to pet sit and trust him entirely to care for our cats just as we do. He is dutiful in always showing up on time and spends time playing with our pets. We always appreciate his updates and careful attention to building trust with our animals. Highly recommend Dmitrii for long term and short term pet sitting”

Scott B.

“Kyoko was so communicative and amazing!! HIGHLY recommend”

Caroline B.

“Sana is awesome! She looked after Toby and Mona while we were away for Thanksgiving and made the whole thing stress-free. She kept us in the loop, gave the cats lots of love, and even got Mona to come out of her shell a little (which is rare). We’re definitely booking her again!”

About: I’ve had a family dog since I was in 3rd grade. I also trained our Shetland sheepdog puppy over COVID. I trained her— everything from house breaking, leash training, general obedience and tricks! Due to a congenital condition, over the past few years she has become almost completely blind. So I have experience with special needs dogs and the care of them. I also regularly pet sit my friends’ dogs in the city. I have a flexible work schedule with the option to work from home in the West Village. I am generally available week nights and weekends! I have a fence in my apartment for the living area if needed. I have no other pets in my apartment and happy to follow whatever safety protocol you’ve established with your pet.

“Jenna has taken care of our sweet baby cats multiple times when we go away. Most recently, we went on our honeymoon for 2 weeks and Jenna went above and beyond taking care of our cats; she definitely spent more time with them than than was scheduled so that they didn’t feel lonely which we know the cats loved! She made our honeymoon even better knowing we didn’t need to worry about the cats at all, as they were in good hands and getting lots of love and care. We actually think they miss her. Will always try to have Jenna be the one for care for them if we are traveling, she’s the best!”

Elisabeth S.

“We love illyiana! She’s really wonderful with our very stressy cat. We were recently away for over two weeks and could see from the photos, that our kitty was pretty happy and being well looked after, with illyiana visiting her daily. Will definitely book in the future.”
