1. Paz L.

“Paz took copious notes during our initial meeting. She was on time and took great care of our energetic puppy. Paz checked in daily and texted picks of our puppy on walks, getting meals and cuddles. I miss my dog terribly when I'm away traveling, but it was comforting to know she was well loved in my absence.”

8. Amberleigh D.
About: I am certified as a veterinary assistant in NY through HVCC. I worked at a veterinary clinic for one year. I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I have even fostered multiple cats and dogs and helped them get adopted. I have also run cross-country in high school, so I have a lot of energy and endurance for dogs that need more time outside. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your furbaby or furbabies! I'm available for services on weekends and weekdays. I enjoy walking every day; I walk at least 5 miles a day and would love company. My pets at home require different care. I have a super hyperactive dog whom I take out every 3 hours for 15 minutes. I also have four cats, and I clean their litter boxes (including vacuuming and mopping the area) daily. My pets are fed twice a day. I trim their nails when needed (my dog about once every 2 weeks and my cats once a month). I also brush and groom them. I have trained all my pets basic commands (NOT Certified), including my cats.


9. Carol S.

“Carol was wonderful! It was our first time leaving our puppy, Teddy, overnight for a few days, and Carol really put our minds at ease very quickly. She cared for Teddy like he was her own. We got regular updates with photos of Teddy looking like he was having a great time. I think he was a little sad to see her go! She was such a pleasure to interact with for us, too. We will definitely be contacting her again the next time have to be away from Teddy! Thank you so very much for a wonderful experience, Carol!”


10. Kristen L.
“Kristen is a regular cat-sitter for my cat Riven and is extremely professional, caring, and dependable. Riven trusted her immediately and Kristen had her purring and playing right away. She was also able to administer medication to my cat easily and is a skilled and experienced caretaker. I would highly recommend her for care of your dog or cat.”


11. Christina M.
“Christina was so great with our greyhound, Minerva! Christina stayed at our home and gave us daily updates. Minerva was happy and calm when we returned home, so we know she felt comfortable with Christina. We would book her again in a heartbeat!”

16. Lisa M.

“Lisa came in at nearly the last minute and saved my vacation. She was friendly, cordial and really saved my bacon. She seems to have gotten along quite well with my boy Zeus, no small task. She kept me informed on how things were going, and gave me no problems whatsoever. I would have no problem working with her again...”

18. Alissia M.
“Alissia demonstrates an exceptional ability to connect with animals in a calm, compassionate, and confident manner. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and deep understanding of pet behavior make her a truly outstanding caregiver. Whether it's daily care or more specialized attention, I trust Alissia completely with my pets and consistently recommend her to others seeking someone reliable and genuinely gifted with animals. We use her services regularly when we have longs days due to work or are away for vacations.”


19. Grzegorz G.
“Greg is a responsible pet sitter who asks all the right questions. He provides regular check-ins, pictures of your critter, will share any concerns he sees, and he makes sure to do a meticulous job cleaning up any potential messes in your absence. He has a ton of energy and can exhaust the most rambunctious furry friends.”


20. Dana H.

“Dana was AMAZING! I had a sitter cancel on me literally 12 hours before I was leaving for my trip and Dana came to the rescue at the super last minute! She arrived an hour before I left so we could go through every detail. I was very anxious since it was the first time leaving my dogs with someone I didn't know and she completely understood and went above and beyond. She treated them as they were her own babies. She did everything that needed to be done in order for my babies to be the most comfortable while I was away, and through the pictures and updates that she sent me, I could tell they were really fond of her! Will definitely consider Dana for the future, she's the best!”
