Dog Sitting East Islip

About: With over 10 years of pet care experience, I bring dependable feeding routines, fun activities that keep dogs busy, gentle but consistent discipline, and genuine loving attention that helps every pet feel safe, happy, and understood. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I have plenty of free time and a flexible schedule. Running my Etsy business on the side allows me to work from home, making it easy to prioritize walks, feedings, playtime, and companionship. Pets get my full attention, consistency, and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure their space stays clean, tidy, and respected. I provide a safe, calm, and trusting environment for their dog, focusing on consistent routines, attentive supervision, and plenty of love. My goal is to ensure both the pet and the home are well cared for at all times.

“Very reliable and the dogs love them! They’ve been able to accommodate last-minute requests from us and there’s never an issue when we get home. Lots of photos and info during the stops. Highly recommend recommended.”

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Since I’m home often, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time, and I can help keep them on their normal schedule so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Sarah was great at stopping by and caring for my two cats. I almost think to good, my cats didn't seem to miss me when I got back. Sarah sent photos and spent time with them so they didn't feel neglected. Sarah also went above and beyond by shoveling snow! It snowed while I was away and Sarah cleared the walk way and some of the driveway. Plus she also let the cats have some outdoor time in the snow (they are indoor/outdoor cats so it was good that they got some outdoor time while I was away so things seemed normal).”

About: I have taken care of my dogs and my friends and families pets for over 10 years! I love our furry friends and am great at walking and feeding them however much they may need! I am currently working but I have a pretty open schedule for this summer. Please let me know which days you would like to work together and I will be sure to accommodate as best I can. Since my service will be at your home, I intend to take the pets out as needed and making sure that I stay with them whenever they go out. When on walks I make sure to be aware of my surroundings so that both your pets and I stay safe.

About: I have taken care of animals since the day I could remember including my own and my neighbors or family friends. I have always had a love for animals and hope to always have a companion with me every day. I have the skills needed to provide for either a puppy or a senior dog. Anyone who knows me would describe me as a loving, trusting, and reliable person not only to people but to animals as well. I hope to extend this love to your best friends as well! Currently I am available any day of the week to come and care for your animal! I love taking dogs on walks or just playing around with them in the backyard or the park. A couple of months ago my best friend Browni passed away so I am excited to have this play time in my schedule. I have a fenced yard in my own backyard if your dog needed to stay at my house and plenty of room for them to play around. I also am aware if a dog needs to be back in a crate I will do so and before I let them roam free I will make sure all door and gates are locked so there will be no where for them to run off too!

“Great experience! My kitties were well taken care of and photos were provided for each visit. Would definitely want Lauren as my pet sitter again!”

I'm experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime and making sure they get plenty of love, attention and always ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I truly love being around animals and believe they should be treated as part of the family. I'm an elementary teacher in the Bay Shore school district, and I'm looking for a small side job! I don't work during the summer so my availability is very flexible! I'm also open to continuing during the school year but my hours would just become more limited to the afternoon and night. I have a fenced in yard that my dogs are always outside in. They love running around together and playing at all hours of the day.

“Laurie is an outstanding pet sitter. For many years, I was very afraid to leave my older dachshund in someone else's care. My little one is a very nervous and sensitive pup. After reading Laurie and Cliff's many positive reviews, I was fortunate enough to have a meet and greet with Laurie. I'm very glad that I did. While caring for my pup, Laurie updated me often about Delilah's status through pictures and videos. My baby looked very happy and content. Laurie is a very sweet, caring, and conscientious caregiver. She was very gentle with my sweet girl. She went above my expectations and I would highly recommend her services to anyone. Thank you Laurie so very much. I am truly grateful.”

About: My background in canine care began at the Little Shelter Animal Adoption Center in Huntington, NY in 2008. I was employed there for several years as a dog walker and socializer, working with a wide variety of dogs and puppies from many different walks of life. All of the dogs were rescues, and so special care needed to be provided, with exercise, playtime, feeding, and even medication distribution. After working at the shelter, I found myself at a few local grooming parlors, working as a bather. As you've probably experienced, most dogs do not love being bathed and groomed, and so I would try my very best to make them comfortable in the unfamiliar situation they were in, taking the time to check in on them frequently and give them lots of reassurance and loving. Patience goes a long way! In January of 2015 I had my first two-month long house and pet sitting job. However, since then I've been working a full time office job and have been unable to enjoy much time with canine companions. I will regularly pet sit for close friends and family, but I'm ready to spend more time around furry friends! I'd love to meet you and your pup and ensure that they're properly taken care of and loved while you're out on the weekend, working, or away on vacation! I'm currently working part-time, with a very flexible schedule, so there's a good chance I'll be able to accommodate your scheduling needs! Reach out to me with any questions. I have two cats at who are cautious of other animals, so I'm happy to care for your pet in your home! I'd love to learn about your pet's routine and preferences to provide them the best care possible.

About: I grew up with 5 dogs at home and are comfortable with all breeds. I have a fenced in yard and walking path for great exercise. I have been pet sitting for over 15 years! I can handle anything from birds to bunnies and more! I’ll send you daily updates as well as photos. I am comfortable hosting or coming to you. In my home all pets are allowed in furniture and beds. I don’t mind sleeping over if that’s what your fur baby is comfortable with!

About: Animals have always been part of my life, from dogs and cats to fish and small rodents. I began pet sitting at 14 and have built years of experience providing reliable, attentive care for pets of all kinds. I recently graduated college and my schedule is super flexible so I have a lot of time to myself and I hope to spend some of that time helping people care for their pets ! I take care of pets in clients' homes by following their usual routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I keep their environment safe and provide toys to keep them entertained. I also keep the space clean and share updates with the client about their pet's behavior. My main goal is to make sure their pets feel happy and comfortable while they're away.
