Pet Sitting East Brooklyn

About: I’ve had cats all my life, including feral ones that I helped domesticate. I worked as a senior caregiver for a patient with dementia who had a cat whom she loved dearly and so I made sure to care for him with her. I love every cat I meet. I’ve taken care of kittens, adolescents, and senior cats. Shy, extroverted, in between, I can make them open up to me with time and patience. As for dogs, I am able to handle big and small. I enjoy walking to parks in my free time and watch birds, which is something I have in common with many dogs. I rarely tire even if they like to pull during walks. I am a recent graduate with distinction from CU Boulder with a degree in Neuroscience and Evolutionary Biology. Through my classes, I have learned how to properly handle and care for animals of all kinds; including but not limited to: birds, fish, cockroaches, ants, rats, and mice. This gives me an advantage of knowledge regarding health and safety when handling animals. I’m currently in between jobs, so I am completely flexible with routine. I am able to work days, nights, or weekends, depending on the needs of clients. I clean and replace litter boxes when needed. Maintaining cleanliness of food bowls as well as their area of roaming is of great importance to me as that can affect the health of the animal as well as the owner. I play calming music when I notice they are particularly anxious. I play with them when I notice they are restless until they tire. If we go for walks, I will clean paws before returning them to their household to avoid outside contamination.

About: I've been caring for animals in different capacities for at least a year, and being a cat owner myself has shown me how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Our pets are family, and they deserve to be treated with the same love and attention we give them ourselves. I have experience walking dogs, as well as caring for cats with specific needs. Specifically, with my own cat who has kidney disease and eats prescription food. Additionally, I have experience administering medication (through food as well as by syringe). My goal is to provide every pet with compassionate, reliable care while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family members are in good hands. My schedule is currently very flexible for the summer, allowing me to accommodate a variety of booking needs. Before any service, I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet so we can get to know each other, discuss your pet's routine and needs, and ensure we're a great fit. I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident that your pet will be in caring, reliable hands. When your pet is with me, they'll receive plenty of affection, playtime, and personalized care based on their needs and personality. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated, so you can expect regular messages, along with adorable photos and videos, to let you know how your furry friend is doing and how their walk or visit is going.

About: I have over 10 years of experience in veterinary medicine, including specialty practice, so I’m comfortable recognizing changes in a pet’s behavior or health and can provide an extra level of attention that gives pet parents peace of mind. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, including administering oral medications, following detailed care instructions, and accommodating pets with medical conditions or special needs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, so I take the time to build trust, keep their routine consistent, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around making sure pets receive consistent care, exercise, meals, and attention. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or evening cuddles, I prioritize keeping each pet on their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Because I work in veterinary medicine, I’m organized, dependable, and used to following detailed care instructions. I make time every day to provide individualized care and regular updates to pet parents, so they can feel confident their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away. My priority is creating a safe, calm, and stress-free environment while keeping pets on their normal routine. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and household rules so pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I always make sure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure before walks and keep a close eye on each pet during outdoor time. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I provide regular photo updates and check-ins to keep pet parents informed and give them peace of mind. With my veterinary background, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in a pet’s behavior or health and know when something requires immediate attention. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, caring for them as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been helping to walk neighbors & other peoples dog since I was 17. No matter the size, trust is earned, & my patience to understand how separation anxiety can affect your doggies mood while you’re away is why you need me. I work at Petsmart for most of my time & want to gain more experience one on one with your pets. In between free time, I enjoy going for walks & what better way than to spend some of that time with a companion. While in my care, I triple check any safety concerns that could occur & rectify any potential risks. I’m highly sensitive & understand your mood dictates the houses mood. Calm, controlled; energy is the best at meeting your pets where they are & addressing their needs.

“Erik was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly responsive, communicative, kind, and friendly from start to finish. My dog is very shy and usually takes a long time to warm up to new people, but he opened up to Erik almost immediately, which says a lot. Erik also accepted a last-minute booking during an insane heat wave and still showed up in 90-degree weather without hesitation. I truly appreciated his reliability and care. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again”

About: I usually work with shy, aggressive or fearful dogs or cats. It can take weeks, months or years to befriend them but when you do it's extremely rewarding, especially when an animal someone deems "dangerous" comes out to be the biggest sweetheart. I have tons of patience and I believe every species of animal deserves love and respect. As humans, it's our duty to be the voices and guardians of the animals in our care. They look to us for comfort, guidance, love and peace. That's why I do anything in my power to donate or volunteer at animal shelters because every animal should know that there's humans out there that actually care about their well being. Working with animals is a great career for me. Update; 8/2020 I’ve been volunteering and working with pets as a professional pet care provider for five years now. Through my journey I’ve learned pet CPR and gained dog training knowledge through Poochpals llc as well as worked as a dog handler at walterspetstyles. I’m currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer and furthering my knowledge on Pet care. At Poochpals we believe in being a friend for life so I’m definitely bringing our motto into the field and looking to become a furever friend for your pets. If you’re ever in need of an actual PROFESSIONAL pet care provider, look no further! I also have basic training knowledge so don’t be surprised if your pup or cat comes back knowing a few new tricks 😂 I have open availability Monday-Sunday. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! My dog, Odin, loves to make new friends of all species. Updates:4/7/2026 Hello friends! I would not be at 29 Hanford anymore due to instability, so I’m moving my business down to NYC before heading to PA. We have multiple fences in house and around the property. Pups are also supervised 24/7 and we have a designated dog room just for them. Back porch is also secured with gates. Dogs aren’t allowed on the lawn without human supervision and a 20ft leash. Lawn is fenced. We have strict safety procedures when it comes down to pets and children.

About: Dogs have been an integral part of my life since I was born. Growing up in a family of dog lovers I have had the joy of caring for many dogs apart of my family for years. My mom even has a tattoo of her late husky which highlights the deep connection we have to our dogs. I’m currently working part-time so I am able to take care of dogs after work and even on weekends ! I am very flexible when it comes to times. In my home, pets are treated as cherished family members, receiving the utmost care and attention. I ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment, providing cozy beds and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. Their feeding schedules are meticulously followed, with balanced and nutritious meals tailored to their specific needs. Regular exercise is a priority, with daily walks and playtime to keep them active and happy. I also focus on their grooming needs, keeping them clean and well-maintained. Most importantly, I provide plenty of affection and companionship, ensuring they feel loved and secure at all times. Whether it's cuddling on the couch or engaging in fun activities, I make sure every pet feels at home and cared for.

“Mellanie was super respectful & courteous. Her level communication made me feel extremely comfortable about having her in my home & around my pets. She even went above beyond w/ treats & toys.”
