“Grace was incredible!! And the kitties loved her, even the shy one. Thank you so much for watching them and will definitely recommend and book again in the future. Thank you for caring for our girls!”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid, and have always had dogs in my home growing up! I like to treat every pet as an individual and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so I am happy to follow specific feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines. I always prioritize safety and communication with the owners. I’ll keep you updated with photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well-cared for. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with animals! I'm currently a Yale Law student so I have a flexible schedule for walks and care! I'm happy to help on weekdays and weekends. I have no other pets, so your pet will feel comfy and get all the attention they deserve. My environment is usually quiet and peaceful.

About: Animal lover here that will treat your pups as if they were my very own--with lots of love, care and cuddles! My name is Biby and I grew up with animals in my family home so there has never been a time when I didn't own and care for a pet--dogs, fish, cats, rabbits, and even a bird! I hope you will consider me when searching for that perfect place. I work full-time during the week but I can work from home a couple days out of the week if need be. I would be honored and excited to care for your family member. I look forward to hearing from you soon and getting to know more about your pup! I primarily work from home throughout the week, but even during my home office hours, I often enjoy taking breaks to engage in playtime or go for walks with furry companions. I reside in an apartment and maintain a high level of organization and cleanliness. I'm delighted to offer dog care services either at your home, providing your pet with familiarity and comfort.
About: Hi! I've been dog-sitting for the past six years but I've also been around dogs my whole life. My family has always had one or two dogs since I was young, and I adopted my furr-baby, a black lab, border collie mix, when he was a puppy. I have experience with all types of dogs from an eight year old bichon frise to a two year old boxer-pitbull, elderly dogs that need medication and everything in between. I'm very active and enjoy walking/jogging (depending on the dog) and playing with the pups I'm watching. I absolutely love dogs and love dog-sitting as a way to spend time with pups while my dog is out of state with my parents for the time being (will be moving at the end of the year so he’s spending some time with his grandparents ☺️). Let me know if you have any questions! Look forward to hearing from you and making some new doggy friends! Thanks! I work from home and am able to give my pup (and yours!) lots of attention. AM and afternoon walks. Lots of potty breaks and PM hikes and dog park adventures. This is a very dog-friendly house and they’re welcome on furniture and beds. My dog is with my parents right now but my apartment is basically his with many parks and trails close by.
“Jess was available with only a few days notice and was very prompt with all responses while scheduling. While last minute isn’t how I like to roll, our holiday plans changed unexpectedly. She did a great job with my instructions caring for our senior cat and left everything in perfect order. I’d recommend her without hesitation!”

“Lamisa watched my two cats for over a week. One of them is an elderly boy, and I'm pretty sure he somehow gained weight under her care, which is a welcome change!”


“Katherine was amazing, especially with my senior dog! She gave him his medication at the correct time, took him on lots of walks, and dealt with his separation anxiety well. I could tell she really cared and that they both enjoyed each other's company. She sent tons of cute pictures! She also did a great job of feeding my cat, who predictably decided to hide every time Katherine visited. But she wasn't alarmed by the lack of cat sightings and just reported on her feedings and how much food she had eaten between visits. I would definitely hire Katherine to petsit again! She was great!”

“Jacqueline took great care of our cat when we were away for a week. She is super nice and was always on time and our cat really enjoyed her company while we were gone.”

“Zoe did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats as well as balcony plants. Very communicative with detailed daily updates, and she was even able to get our very shy kitty to make friends. Outstanding care!”

“Hey everyone Z was Great she came to my house three times a day to feed and walk the dogs and play with them. The dogs were well attended to and safe, and we plan on using her again soon. Thank you Z.”

“Melissa sought to go beyond in caring for my cat. She even returned one day to check on his food and water when I was worried it might be low. She played with him and his toys and sent me pictures that he was doing well. I will be asking for her help again!”

“Catie was excellent. We booked last minute for dog-walking, because our regular sitter canceled last minute. Catie met with Gnocchi beforehand and was very professional and reassuring. No issues, always very prompt with check-in notes and photos. Would absolutely book with Catie again.”


About: Use olive69192 for a discount on your first booking 🌟 Hi! I’m Mercuri and I am a student at Yale studying art history. I have two cats of my own, olive and oil, and I’ve petsat rabbits in the past. When I got my cats they had giardia and ringworm from the shelter so I quickly got comfortable with applying meds orally & topically! I’m working remotely so will have time to play with your cats! I see them as part of my daily routine and let them play with me a lot. I work with indoor only cats, and clean the space multiple times a day, I often scoop the litter 3-4 times a day, and I try to wipe my own cats daily. I’m comfortable with applying meds orally.

About: Since childhood, taking in and rehabilitating stray animals has been a huge part of my life. No matter the breed, my goal is to provide high quality care and love. I’ve provided plenty of dog sitting and cat care to friends and family over the years. I am a travel nurse (originally from florida) and I am desperately missing my fur babies back home! I’m hoping this will provide the opportunity for some quality time with other people’s fur babies to fill the gap temporarily <3 I currently work 3 days per week as a travel nurse, leaving my 4 days off open to spend time with your babies! I have no other obligations or duties during my off days, so that time is strictly dedicated to your pet. I do not currently have any of my own pets in my home nor any children. I am able to provide several walks for exercise and outside time. My home is very quiet and calm, providing a safe space for your pet with minimal stress.

I am highly flexible and always ensure your animals receive the consistent attention, exercise, and love they deserve throughout the entire week. I provide trustworthy, excellent, and a consistent quality of care tailored to each pet’s unique personality. I am an open-minded sitter who understands every animal is different, ensuring I meet their specific needs through clear communication and dedicated, high-quality attention at every visit.

“Carly did such a great job with my little pup! Went out of the way to get to know Bode and his personality. Sent photos, spent a lot of time playing with my little guy. I left a rundown of my puppy’s routine and she followed it to a T. I will be using her again for anytime I need drop in visits!, very trusting!”

Lauren was an amazing caregiver for my three cats over a long weekend. I had to go out of town and leave behind two very nervous cats who hide whenever anyone is around, and one senior foster cat with an unlimited appetite for companionship and affection. Lauren was able to take on the job on short notice, sending updates with sweet photos of the senior cat while providing for all their needs. She was communicative, reliable, and took excellent care of the cats. I will definitely reach out to Lauren in the future, and recommend her highly.
Eliza was amazing. We didn’t have to worry about pups getting a break during the day . She communicated with our Overnight sitter throughout the week. Our last day of our trip my bigger dog decided to crash through our screen on a window and eliza went over right away to make sure he wouldn’t go and jump out the window . He is a silly dog ! I am a sitter also and I have already referred Eliza to a few of my customers.

This is the second time that Jacqueline watched our cat while we were on vacation. Jacqueline is a wonderful cat sitter - very communicative and responsible. She sends the best pictures of Juniper for us to enjoy while we’re away! We feel so comfortable leaving our cat in her care. I can’t recommend her enough!

Mary Rose was absolutely incredible! She went above and beyond in every way and genuinely cared about Finn’s happiness and well-being. It was clear that she treated him as if he were her own, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. We will absolutely be booking with her again!

Zhiyu was amazing! She was incredibly kind, responsible, and attentive with our pets. She followed all of our instructions carefully, kept us updated, and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. We came home to happy pets and everything well taken care of. We would definitely ask her to help us again. Highly recommend her!
Kat did an absolutely awesome job watching my cats! She is super kind, attentive to all my notes, and followed every instruction perfectly. I was especially grateful for how patient she was with my shy kitty. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing that both my cats and my house were in such great hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!
Rebecca was responsive and reliable. Our two fearful rescue dogs warmed up to her quickly. She visited three times a day, was on time, and consistently shared photos and updates. She even got them to go out for walks despite the rain and winds of the Nor’easter and their pre-existing fear of storms. I highly recommend her pet care services.
