“Thanks for taking such good care of our Allie! She was in such good spirits when we came home! Jamie did an excellent job of checking in with pictures and updates. Our black lab Allie was happy spending time with Jamie during her stop-ins. She even brought our mail and packages in which was greatly appreciated.”

“Kilie did a fantastic job taking care of our two boys (cats)! She was attentive to our instructions, careful to make sure they got what they needed, and communicated with us how each visit went. We did a meet and greet where she introduced herself to the boys and then took care to make sure they were treated very well! Would highly recommend hiring Kilie!”

About: I've always loved working with animals, and my experience as an ASPCA intern has given me valuable hands-on experience caring for pets. I'm studying biology on the pre-vet track because my goal is to become a veterinarian, so I'm always eager to learn more about animal health and behavior. I have experience caring for cats that require daily medication and special diets, thanks to my own cat's kidney disease. I also enjoy training dogs using positive reinforcement and have taught my roommate's dog basic commands like "sit." I'm patient, reliable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. As a pre-vet biology student, pet care is an important part of my daily routine and aligns with my career goals. Every day, I make sure my cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention and playtime. Since she has kidney disease, I also administer her medication and closely monitor her eating habits, hydration, and overall health. Throughout the week, I keep up with grooming, cleaning her living space, and ensuring she stays comfortable and happy. Caring for my cat, along with my experience as an ASPCA intern, has strengthened my passion for animal care and taught me responsibility, consistency, and the importance of recognizing changes in an animal's health. I have no furry friends at the moment and I happen to live by a spacious park and can give them all the love needed. And I am close to a community clinic as well .

About: Schedule-Monday through Friday 6-2:30 I work and weekends off 🫠😁Animals have always been a part of my life growing up. Some of my family has a farm which I got to experience and learn from. I would walk a dog named Molly. She belonged to an older person who struggled with it. All 4 years of high school I was responsible for her grooming, as well as making sure she had plenty of extra love. I truly enjoyed the trust of this pet parent, and Molly that I gained from this time. I wish to continue that commitment now with the pet parents I will be able to meet on here. I truly hope to get the chance to gain your, and your pets trust by reaching there needs. -Christian Rosario My week is surrounded around taking care of my own home and animals. I have flexible hours with my job. If I am unable to be home my girlfriend is there all through the week. She only works weekends as a traveling vet assistant. On those days I am home to reach our animals and your pets needs. They will always be given attention and love. I have a fenced in back yard and two dogs of my own who are trained and help me train other dogs. Both are working emotional support dogs, as we understand they need a purpose to feel a part of the pack. Our house is big enough that no animals have to be together at any point. If this makes pet owners more comfortable and would like there pets separated to enjoy some alone time.

“Ginnie was able to do drop-ins with our two cats through the Thanksgiving holiday, which we were very grateful for! She was even able to come Thanksgiving day. She was delayed a few times due to snow, but she kept us updated so we knew what was going on. She followed our feeding instructions and the cats were well-cared for while we were gone.”

“My cat felt safe interacting and snuggling up to John within minutes of first meeting him, and I think it’s because of John’s calm, intentional, gentle presence and demeanor. I couldn’t believe this is his first time cat-sitting because he was so good with my cat. He was quick to respond and was communicative throughout the visits, and asked many questions to get to know my cat’s routines and preferences. John was so polite and easygoing. He went above and beyond caring for my cat for the weekend, and this was a last minute scheduling given last minute plans. So grateful for John.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my since I was about 8. My family and friends often rely on me for pet care and now I work in pet care throughout the day. I hope to show you that you can reply on me too! Hello! I’ve had pets all my life so I’m accustomed to caring for them and I take pride in it. For I would primarily be available on Wednesdays and Fridays as well as weekends ( possibly other weekdays too but I would be happy to talk about any scheduling options if necessary. I also travel between NYC and Syracuse often so I can take on jobs from both areas! I understand that this is a place that will be familiar to the pet in comparison to me so I will do my best to familiarize myself with the home and the pet whilst respecting both the owner and their furry friend to better accommodate.

Jamie was excellent. I was worried about leaving Edgar bc we are very attached. Jamie sent me pictures everyday. She also found him when he was being shy so we knew he was ok. And she monitored his food and water so I knew he was eating and drinking. I felt so much better on my trip and I am so grateful! I will definitely ask her to come again.

Mary visited my cat Butch while I was away for three nights and four days, and I couldn’t be happier with her care. When I came home, everything was clean and well cared for. She is a very sweet person, and you can tell she has a gentle touch with cats. It gave me such peace of mind knowing that Butch was in good hands. I would definitely hire her again.

Adriana was great, and my cats were very well taken care of! One of my cats needs an inhaler, and Adriana was able to administer it and even had prior experience with cat inhalers—she also gave me thorough updates each visit, and sent me some adorable photos of the fast-moving little gremlins. I would definitely recommend her.

Mollie has been an amazing sitter for our cat, Chester, and he adores her! We appreciate all the quality time she spends with him during our time away. She is very thoughtful, caring and very trustworthy. We love the pictures and thorough updates that she provides after each drop-in... and Chester certainly enjoys all the attention, treats and brushings!

Sarah did such a good job of taking care of my cat that when I got home he acted like he didn’t even notice I was gone ! She was extremely helpful not only in taking care of my baby but also with household things like taking out the trash and bringing in packages! I would definitely recommend her to any cat parents!

With her knowledge, educational background, on animals, love for her own dogs, she was a top choice. She did an excellent job with my two dogs. The only issue I had, is she’s moving and canny use her again. Thank you for taking amazing care of my pups.

Shaz was absolutely amazing! I love how she had no problem feeding my ferals for me as well as my 4 kitties who are usually shy around strangers. The photos she sent made me feel at ease seeing my Miney-Moo enjoying some scratches and rubbing her face against whatever corner she could find. I loved seeing my Nala girl having fun and playing in the pics. My kitties looked so relaxed and content. Dante looked so cute chilling by her feet. I felt bad when I forgot to mention that Dante wheezes when he's mad. Shaz was super concerned which I appreciated her checking in and alerting me :)

Lilly did a wonderful job caring for our pet Binkley, an elderly free-roam house rabbit! He is usually shy around strangers, but her quiet, gentle, and patient approach had him at ease with her in just a couple of days. She prepared his special food carefully and he actually gained a little weight during our ten day absence. We highly recommend her!
