About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs. I have babysat and walked friends and family’s pets, and have always had a connection with animals. I am attentive, reliable, caring, and i’m committed to keeping your dog safe, happy, and exercised. I am so excited to spend some time with your babies! I have an open schedule. I am available from Monday-Sunday from 12-8, and can make up to two visits a day. Please message me at least a day beforehand, thank you! I will not be keeping pets at my house or stay overnight at a clients, but I will ask that you let me know of your pets medical needs, emergency contacts, vet info, etc so I can insure their safety as well as mine. And please let me know of any habits or interests of your pets! thank you!

About: Hi besties! 🐾 :D Thank you for giving me a chance! 😊 I know it can feel like a lot to trust someone with your fur baby—but given the opportunity, I promise to treat them with all the love, care, and attention they deserve! 💖 A little about me—I feed the neighborhood cats and I'm a foster parent with the ASPCA, so caring for animals is truly at the heart of what I do. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, and I'll be fully present and doting while you're away. Your pet will be in safe, loving hands! 🐾 I'm so excited to care and meet you and your cute baby (long-term or short-term, whichever suits you)! Whether you have a cat, a dog, or both, my goal is simple: to make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely cared for while you're away. 💗 I've been a cat owner for almost 10 years—my sweet baby is literally the love of my life, and I know just how special that bond is. I follow him everywhere, and my favorite thing is snuggling together as we fall asleep. I understand the trust you're placing on me, and I don't take that lightly. From playtime and snuggles to keeping their routine consistent, I'll treat your cat like the royalty they are. 💕 I love dogs too! I've walked dogs before and genuinely enjoyed every moment with them. While I'm still building my experience with dogs, I'm attentive, caring, and will follow your instructions because no one knows your baby better than you. Whether it's sticking to their routine, practicing commands, or just making sure they get all the love and exercise they need—I've got your dog and yours back! 💛 If you have any requests, you can always message me! I'd love to help and make accommodations. ✨ I'm also a licensed esthetician specializing in waxing, and like so many others right now, I'm navigating a tough job market. Cat and dog care is such a joyful way to connect with precious babies (and meet awesome people like you!) while I work toward opening my own business. So if you're looking for someone to love on your baby, booking with me means you're also supporting a local small business owner chasing her dream. So if you can support me along the way, that would just be purrfect! 💖 :D If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and who will genuinely adore your baby, I'd be so honored to meet you both. Let's link! :D I'm available pretty much anytime since I'm currently looking for work as a licensed waxer. So if you ever need a wax too—I'm here! :D I have the sweetest little cat at home and we're literally attached at the hip—I follow him around everywhere and we spend all our time cuddling, watching TV, and just being together. I can't function without him fr so he's always by my side lol. I love dogs too and have walked them before—I'm still learning but I'm super caring and will treat your baby with just as much love. I know pets need their space sometimes, so I'm good at reading (especially cats) their mood—whether they wanna play, cuddle, or just have me sit nearby and exist with them. I'll bring that same energy and care to your baby too! ✨
“Andy did a great job taking care of our two cats! He was very communicative, responsible, timely, and paid good attention to details like taking out the litter garbage, specific feeding instructions, and bringing some extra toys to entertain the cats. Definitely recommend!!”

“Very nice and knowledgeable sitter. My anxious cat showed no signs of stress or anxiety after she left my place, which says a lot. Communicationk was great. Would definitely rebook!”

About: Hi! I'm Janis—a current college student on a gap semester, excited to meet your pet(s)! I’ve been caring for all kinds of animals since I was young—dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish—you name it! Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs— from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as large breeds like Pit Bulls, Samoyeds, and Labradors. I am open to making exceptions for some large breeds depending on their behavior and after a meet-and-greet. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I gained experience walking and handling anxious dogs. My experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant has given me strong familiarity with handling medications, special diets, and injury care. I’m highly attentive, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific care instructions to ensure your pet’s safety and well-being. I’m very responsive and make sure pet parents always feel connected by sending frequent photo and video updates. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and bond with them through the activities they enjoy most. I’m currently on a gap semester, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to spend most of the day with them, with exceptions for errands, but they will never be left alone, as I live with family. I provide at least 2–3 walks or potty breaks per day, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pet’s needs and routine. I also accept last-minute bookings whenever possible! I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication at all times. I’m primarily based in Brooklyn, where I live in a house with a fenced front yard and provide most of my pet care services. I also occasionally stay at a second home in Pasadena, Maryland with a large fenced backyard and offer care locally there when I’m in the area. I do not transport pets between locations– services are always provided in one consistent environment to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. During walks, I take a cautious approach by starting in quieter areas with minimal traffic to help pets feel secure, especially in new environments. I always pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I live with my family, so pets will never be left alone if I had to run out, and I always communicate this clearly with owners ahead of time. I currently don’t have other pets in my Brooklyn home aside from fish, which allows me to give your pet my full attention. I can also follow instructions like crating or separating pets if needed.
About: I grew up with pets and have a sweet Shihpoo of my own. I grew up with a border collie, 2 cats and a duck named Millie. I also used to sit for my friends dogs when they traveled before I got a dog of my own. I love animals and would love to walk and love yours. Since I have a Shihpoo of my own pet care for me is daily. She’s still a puppy, and I’ve been training her which I’m finding super rewarding. I walk my own pup 3-4 times a day. It was important that I got her house broken as quickly as possible. Now that she is 10 months she’s perfect at waiting to go outside to use the bathroom. My pup is very active and I understand pups that have a lot of energy on walks. I have my pup redirect her energy by bringing treats on our walks and having her perform several commands.
About: I'm a trustworthy, patient person with over 7 years of experience with pet care. I specialize in cat sitting and am familiar with handling anxious animals. I've worked with cats and am very respectful of their space and needs. I've also have puppy and Boston Terrier experience so I understand how unevenly tempered or high-energy dogs, might behave. I'm a kind, supportive rock which helps me do what is needed for the furbaby. I am also TNR certified and am a community cat caretaker. For your home I also aim to go the extra mile in keeping it clean, orderly and managed. You can be rest assured that any problems will be handled swiftly and with constant communication with you. I am generally flexible with scheduling and location - focusing on SouthWest Brooklyn but I can also service lower Manhattan and some parts of Queens. Let me know your preferences and I can work with your needs. I balance out the owner's preferences, strictly following a provided caresheet, (day or night, how many hours etc) and feel out what the animal needs emotionally (are they anxious, high energy or prefer to sit at a distance for company) so that everyone is a happy camper. By default, I tend to take 1-2 pictures per day/service - if you want more or less just let me know! For house-sitting cats, litter management is always included! (unless specifically requested not to). For house-sitting dogs, walks are included! ( NOTE: This does not apply to drop-ins )
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Dyker Heights is $25

Kylee was an exceptional sitter for my cat! This was my first time hiring a catsitter and I was very nervous about leaving my cat for a full week since he is very social and not used to being alone overnight. From the meet and greet and the very first drop-in report, I knew Kylee was the right sitter for my cat. She gave detailed notes on everything that happened during the visit and took amazing photos of my cat eating, playing, and cuddling! She is a great photographer and I would actually wake up excited each day to see the new photos she would take. I really appreciated how much she genuinely cared about my cat, beyond what she was getting paid to do and as if he were her own. She would often go above and beyond each visit, even staying a full hour one time despite only being scheduled for 30 minutes because my cat had fallen asleep on her! She handled all of my cat's food and litter box preferences in stride and from the photos I could see how much my cat loved and adored her. I came back to the best outcome any cat owner could wish for after a long trip: a happy and relaxed cat, who was excited to see me and very clearly well-taken care of in my absence. I could not have picked a better sitter and I will absolutely be contacting Kylee again for any future sits :)

Caitlin took great care of Ky while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and always kept us updated with photos and notes after each visit. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Ky was in such attentive hands. We'd be happy to book with Caitlin again and highly recommend her!

Great cat sitter. Kara took care of our cat for an extended period. She made sure the feeders were full, the water was full, collected our mail, did litter boxes, cleaned anything that needed to be cleaned up, and gave out kitty personal play and petting time. Kara is the best!
Sara took wonderful care of Rikki and Mila with twice-daily visits for an entire week. Sarah followed all of our instructions and she sent detailed updates along with lots of great photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout the week—she was quick to reach out with any questions and kept us informed every step of the way. We came home to two happy, relaxed, and very well-cared-for cats, which is the best review we could give. We would absolutely book Sara again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!

Emily did a fantastic job taking care of my cats. I felt so relaxed on my vacation knowing they were doing so well without me. Her videos and photos put my mind at rest. She made sure that they were comfortable through a heatwave and spent quality time playing with them every visit. I will most certainly ask Emily to look after my cats when I go on my next vacation.

Matthew was a stellar sitter and took amazing care of my cat. This was my first time entrusting my cat with a sitter and I couldn't have felt more at ease with anyone else. Matthew's notes were detailed, humorous, and an absolute delight to read. I really enjoyed the photos he took as well. I would absolutely rebook with Matthew again and I'm grateful for the peace of mind he gave me as a first time pet owner and first time Rover user.
