Pet Sitting Downtown

“Kira was wonderful with both of our cats, and gave great peace of mind with my senior cat who takes medications. She was always on time and very responsive. Highly recommend her for watching your pets and we will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”

About: I've been a cat foster parent for a few years as well as a volunteer at the Brooklyn Cat Cafe. I love both cats and dogs and am familiar and comfortable working with anxious animals. I'm thoughtful about animal behavior (moreso with cats) and having patience and understanding to work with pets unsure of new humans. I've petsat for many friends' cats around the country for a few years. I work hybrid and have the option to work from home whenever I need. I can also be available before work (9am) or in the evening. I enjoy taking long walks in the evening. I prefer setting my schedule within a few days to a week, whether that's workouts, dinner plans, or pet sitting to structure and ensure my availability. For my own foster pets, I work around the schedule they may need to ensure a secure and happy home. For example, my current foster cat has anxiety around food so I've given her a food schedule of 4x a day so she can feel secure. I approach pet care with a lot of patience and boundaries. My priority is to first make sure that animals feel comfortable around me. Having spent a lot of time around cats, especially ones who've been abandoned and previously lived on the streets, I have a lot of patience for building trust over time. I give animals space to come to me, while also creating an environment where that is more possible, such as having spaces for the animal to hide or have for themselves, or just sitting on the ground nearby with little movement for periods of time.

“We got lots of updates and it seems like our kitties were well taken care of. Sophia’s also very good with communication so we felt safe + happy for our cats to be in her care!”

“If I could give more than five stars, I would ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ she did an amazing job. I have the best photos from her. Don’t hesitate to have her watch your dog, she really is amazing!!”

“Miranda takes wonderful care of my fur babies and my home when I travel. I highly recommend using her for drop in visits for kitties and I’m sure she’s great with dogs as well!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about 8 years and truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, including puppies, senior dogs, and shy or anxious dogs who need a little extra patience and reassurance. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once while making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with a familiar face, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I’m always happy to send regular photo and video updates throughout the stay. My goal is to treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’m always happy to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so you and your pup can get to know me and feel comfortable before the booking. I work remotely, so I can be at home all day if needed. My schedule is very flexible, and I will make sure the pups routines are followed. I live in an apartment, so no yard. However, I’m very close to multiple parks and love walking around those. I can crate your pup if they are crate trained, and I’m fine leaving them out if they aren’t. It’s all about making you and your animal feel safe and secure!

“I cannot recommend Yirui highly enough! I needed someone to watch [Dog's Name] for 10 days, and [Walker's Name] went entirely above and beyond. They came by three times a day like clockwork and even took the extra time to bring [Dog's Name] to the local park to get their energy out. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was getting fresh air, exercise, and genuine care while I was busy. If you need someone reliable, communicative, and truly great with dogs, hire Yirui!”

“Anne-Charlotte was great with my senior pitbull! She was communicative, took photos of her visit, and was clearly very attentive with Meryl while she was with her.”

“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.”
