Chelsea is a great sitter and I will be using her again. Her companion, Toby is also a wonderful little pup who helped calm my pups down. I don't know if you can call a dog a professional, but I can say that about Chelsea. She took our girls on nice long walks, sent plenty of pictures, and made sure we knew they were well taken care of.

Requested Avary the day before and was immediately reached out to, to confirm the booking and get familiar with our puppy. Avary proceeded to communicate ETA, sending pics on arrival and kept me up to date on the good potty moments and the bad. Will definitely be rebooking and recommend Avary without any hesitation to anyone who needs a sitter!

Rachelle has been our go-to dog sitter, and once again, she took great care of our dachshund while we were away for a week. She made sure he got his daily walks and potty breaks on schedule, handled his medication, and kept the house tidy, which we really appreciated. She also sent us regular photo updates, which eased how much we missed him. We’ve used her before and continue to trust her with our pup. Would definitely recommend!

I had such a great experience with Darían and truly can’t recommend her enough! I was in a stressful last-minute situation, and she immediately stepped in to help. She took amazing care of my cat, Canela, and kept me updated with the sweetest photos and thoughtful check-ins throughout. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals and takes the time to make them feel safe and comfortable. Canela can be a wild kitten and likes to test boundaries, but Darían handled her with so much patience and care - she really found a way to bond with her. This experience honestly restored my faith in pet care services. I would absolutely book Darían again and highly reco her to anyone looking for someone thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely kind with their pets.

Wow Schirn is absolutely amazing! I would recommend her to anyone. She took care of our dog the 10 days we were in Ireland and did an amazing job. We even had a maintenance issue in our apartment and she had it fixed and had me updated in no time. She really is incredible. We got great pictures and updates every day. I will be using her every time we are out of town. 10/10

I feel awful. The morning of my vacation, Freya started having stomach problems. I should have cancelled my trip, but I left Freya with Tess. I'm sorry Tess, but I'm happy I did. Tess knew exactly what to do. She was a calm force in the face of my freak out. Freya was in better hands than if I'd stayed home. Tess is amazing with my dog. Freya loves her and I appreciate her. Thank you Tess!!

Doechii "hanging" with Ivy. She was kind, full of patience, respectful, and super friendly. She watched my dog for 10 days while I went out of the country. I felt confident that my pet was being taken care of and didn't ever worry about her wellbeing while being far away. She was super respectful of my home and sent me pictures often. I will definitely be booking her again!!! Doechii and I are so glad that we met her.

Lenford made me feel comfortable that Charlie was in good hands while I was away! He sent many pictures in which Charlie looked like he was having a blast. Lenford also worked with me when my flight was delayed until the middle of the night and stayed with Charlie until we were sure I would be getting home soon.

About: Hi! I’m Izzy — a Brooklyn-based ER nurse, runner, and lifelong animal lover. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have spent the last 6+ years actively caring for cats as an adult, including my own cat, Ruby. As a nurse, I’m calm under pressure, dependable, detail-oriented, and very comfortable following routines and special instructions. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat them with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, litter care, medication routines, and keeping pets company while you’re away. I also love staying active, so whether your dog wants an energetic walk or your cat just needs a calm, reassuring presence, I’ll adapt to their personality and needs. I pride myself on being communicative and reliable, and I’ll always send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! My schedule varies week to week, but I keep my availability updated regularly and try to be as flexible as possible. I’m typically available mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and pet care visits. On my days off, I can often accommodate longer visits and more flexible timing. I’m very communicative and will always be upfront about availability so you can plan confidently. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, and any special instructions so I can keep their environment as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine. I pay close attention during walks, use secure leashing/harness practices, and make sure pets always have fresh water, meals, medications (if needed), and lots of attention and reassurance while their owners are away. As an ER nurse, I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and comfortable recognizing when something seems off or when a pet may need extra attention. I also believe communication is huge, so I make sure to send regular updates and photos so owners feel informed and comfortable while they’re away from their pets.

And an added bonus - his pictures was professional quality and we now have incredible photos of our pup 🐾

Erinn did an incredible job, house sitting for our newly adopted pup, Maisie! Maisie is still very anxious and trying to adjust to her new environment. Despite the very nervous energy, Erinn was patient and expertly worked slowly with Maisie to help win her over. Erinn provided timely updates, and helped us feel at-ease while we were away for the evening. We (and Maisie!) look forward to working with Erinn again in the future.

Victoria is an absolute gem! She watched our dog and cat for a weekend while we were away on a trip, and we felt so calm the entire time. Being able to fully trust someone and not worry at all while away was such a gift. She also did really well with our bigger/stronger dog who can pull on walks. She communicated so well throughout the weekend, arrived punctually, and sent us photos every few hours, which we really appreciated. It was clear our pets were comfortable and well cared for. She left our place totally clean and in order. Would absolutely love to work with her again and highly recommend her :)

I can't say enough how fantastic Miller is with our senior cats! Considerate and thorough with their special needs, Miller has a special connection with our kitties - they are immediately comfortable and happy around them. And we are so assured to be able to be away knowing Miller is on top of everything and cares so much. Recommended without hesitation! ☺️

Lady was quick to respond to my request, very clear and personable, and kept in touch throughout the day with the dogs. She was obviously experienced taking care of dogs, with a calm demeanor, and gentle way, but also not giving in to my boys' attempts to get away with controlling the situation. I felt completely at ease leaving them in her care for the day for good reason. I would be happy to do so again!

Dana was absolutely wonderful with my puppy. From the start, it was clear how comfortable and happy he felt around her, which gave me so much peace of mind. She kept me consistently updated throughout the day, sharing messages and check-ins that made me feel really reassured. It’s not easy to trust someone with your puppy, but Dana made it effortless. She was attentive, caring, and clearly experienced - Scooby genuinely liked her, which says everything. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking her again!
