About: Hi! My name is Celine! I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I’m very active, so I love going on walks, playing, and making sure pets get lots of attention and exercise. I’ve dog sat many times over the years and enjoy every minute of it. I also take care of cats and do drop in visits for them! I currently am working hybrid (Tuesday-Wednesday) in office, but my partner works fully remote Monday-Friday (He also loves animals and has a dog of his own at home, so he would be able to take care of any dog/cat while I’m at work for a couple hours)! On the days where I work from home, I have time throughout the day to go on a walk, make lunch, etc. I will have plenty of time to take care of pets throughout the week/weekends. I care for pets by making sure they always have fresh water available and that they feel comfortable, safe, and happy in my care. During walks, I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and energy levels, and I adjust accordingly if they seem uncomfortable or overwhelmed. I also love keeping pets entertained and engaged throughout the day with playtime, enrichment activities, and even a little training—whether it’s for learning or just for fun!

About: I've been an animal lover all my life - growing up in the rural south - we had dogs and cats! Now that I've been calling Brooklyn home for over a decade, I've settled in with my aussiedoodle, Dolly, and my two pre-teen boys. I must say - she is absolutely spoiled and loves having furry friends come hang out! We have someone home about 80% of the time to hang out, play with, and love on your furbaby! There is always someone home overnight and we will gladly follow your pet's schedule as closely as possible for feeding, walks, potty breaks, etc. We treat your pet just like a member of our family! Our three year old female aussiedoodle, Dolly, is an upbeat, playful pal that will enjoy playing with and hanging out with your little one. We have an outdoor terrace on the ground floor that is fully fenced in and we love to spend extra time outside playing as well!

About: Full Time Pet Care Provider. I’ve worked for several animal care facilities from shelters to boarding facilities to vet offices. I love going for long walk and teaching animals new skills. I have a dog named Aspen that I love with my whole heart and I promise to treat your furry friend like they were my own! I never just walk, I try my best to get them moving and using their senses and minds so that they get the full workout. If you want , I’m happy to bring my dog Aspen who is a well balanced dog and great playmate/companion that many of my past clients loved. I am great at communicating and will send you as many pictures and updates as you like! I’m a part time dog walker who loves spending time at home. I’m always excited to give your furry friend some extra attention and cuddles. When I walk dogs for a local company, I ensure your pet is never left alone for more than an hour. I’m dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for your pet, making sure they get the exercise and companionship they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your beloved pet! I am fully prepared to follow what ever rules and restrictions you have. I don’t let my clients dogs off leash or interact with other dogs for safety reasons. I have so many fun mini games to play and engage their mind, they won’t need to!

“Amanda treated my kitties with great care. They have different personalities, and she approached each one uniquely, which is greatly appreciated! The shyer one hid herself away during visits, but Amanda checked on her and left her toys and treats, and noted when those items had been eaten or moved the next visit. Amanda gave lots of attention to my more social girl. I’d definitely book Amanda again.”

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve loved and cared for two dogs in my immediate family, and I’m the go-to dog sitter and walker for my extended family and friends. I’ve provided boarding, house-sitting, and walking services and have experience administering medication, socializing puppies, and helping with crate and basic command training. As a former animal shelter volunteer, I’m comfortable working with pets of all personalities and needs. Any pet under my care will be treated with genuine love, patience, and respect—you can count on me to provide attentive, reliable care for your furry family member! If you have any questions please reach out! I am very communicative throughout the process and can provide the same communication throughout the pet-sitting experience. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work as a research associate with flexible hours. I work from home most days (I only have to be in office every other Tuesday)- I can provide frequent walks and potty breaks throughout the day and ensure your pet is fed and comfortable. I can provide active play as well. I have a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with a fenced outdoor deck that offers a safe and private space for your pet to relax. I’m also just one block from Central Park, where your pet can enjoy beautiful walks by the Harlem Meer and plenty of playtime in the East Meadow. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I always follow your standards and preferences with the utmost respect and attention. I treat every pet like family—prioritizing their routine, comfort, and sense of stability at all times.

About: Anyone who has ever loved a Rottie, Shepherd, or Boxer knows that they’re just big babies, and cat parents know who really rules the house! I grew up with a Rottweiler, German Shepherds, and multiple cats of varying personalities, and I’ve been an animal lover ever since! I know both cats and dogs well enough to read their body language, and I always approach them on their terms. Does your pup need exercise, but you’re stuck in meetings all day? Let me take them for a walk in the park! Have a last-minute dinner after work in the city and need someone to feed your dog? I’m your person! Though I live with a cat currently, I miss the pure joy that is seeing a happy doggo. I know what it’s like to be a pet owner and have a hectic life or last-minute trips, so let me take some of that stress away from you! Every new client includes a meet-and-greet where we will go over your pet’s likes, dislikes, and favorite treats and toys! I’ll also be sure to verify your vet information and what you would like me to do in an emergency. I can’t wait to meet you and your little one! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. 😊 I am a writer who works from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care is the perfect addition to my day! I’m always looking for an excuse to get out of the apartment, and taking care of furry friends is the perfect way to do so! During our meet-and-greet, I will go over all of your pet’s preferences, meal and/or medication times, and what to do in an emergency! During the visit, you can expect me to be professional and respect your little one’s space. It is their home, after all! Let me know if you’d like me to water your plants as well if you’re on a trip. I’m here to make your life easier!

About: I will run with your dog!! if you want! more than happy to really tire them out :) pet sitting was my first job and i hope to keep it part of my life forever. I love caring for animals and getting to know them! i have an asthmatic cat of my own and a great love for my late childhood dog and my sister’s dog back home, and missing them is inspiring me to find some dogs of my own here in nyc. i am currently unemployed following a lay off, so i am incredibly flexible right now for pet care needs and can make your baby my top priority. I am an incredibly adaptable person and a scientist with a lot of experience following protocols so i will have no trouble following complicated animal routines. i am also sober if you find that meaningful for my trustworthiness.

Elizabeth is a cat whisperer! She was warm, caring, reliable, and even brought treats out when meeting Natasha to set her at ease. My cat unsurprisingly took to her immediately and by the look of the pictures I got, she also had a great time playing with her wand toys and interactive feeders while I was out of town. She sent lots of pictures and detailed updates, so I knew that Natasha was in good hands. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their cat like it's their own!

Ayla was absolutely wonderful in helping care for our cat while we were away for over a week! From the initial booking request, she was quick to respond, incredibly friendly, and very accommodating with our schedule. She stopped by every day to check on him and sent us lots of photos and updates, which I always love receiving when we’re away! When we returned, the apartment was in great order, and it was clear that Ayla had taken wonderful care of him. She did a great job keeping his litter box clean, making sure he had plenty of food and water, and spending time playing with him. We really appreciate Ayla's help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful cat sitter!
