About: New customers get $20 off first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/tinay36247 I've had two dogs, three cats and worked at a non-profit animal shelter for a number of years. I love animals of all kinds and am excited to take care of your family member! I generally only take one furry friend at a time so that they get my unlimited attention, however, if from same family, I can take more than one. Please message me. During the weekends, I am always at home and around the neighborhood. We have several great dog parks around the neighborhood. If you do not see any available days, please message me and I will be glad to work with you! My schedule can be flexible and adjusted to suit your needs. I have a fenced in backyard and will be sure to always be available to play with and accompany your pet. I will send pictures and videos to update you while you are away. I am responsible and can administer medication if needed. I would love to meet with you and your pet(s) first before you make a decision on a sitter. During that time, we can discuss all of your pet's needs, eating schedule, bathroom schedule, etc...No play will be unsupervised.


About: I’ve taken care of pets of various friends and neighbors over the last few years. I have always wanted a pet of my own and treat every pet like they are. I am a hard and detail oriented worker. I will clearly communicate with you how your pet is doing as well as sending pictures and videos. I am currently a teacher on summer break so I have nothing but time to come and play with your pups! Nothing would be more fun for me than to get to take your dog for a walk and have some quality playtime with them while we enjoy the summer sun! I have experienced both dog and cat sitting while clients and friends of mine have gone on vacation. I have taken dogs for walks, cleaned out litter boxes, fed them, and enjoyed some playtime. Unfortunately, my apartment does not allow pets so I cannot have one of my own, but I would be more than happy to care for your pet in your home.

About: I have lived with cats my whole life so I am very comfortable with them and know how to read them, even ones that are on the more temperamental side. I also have experience taking care of kittens. Dogs and cats both love me because I love to give them attention and am happy to play or cuddle with them. I have experience caring for dogs with challenges such as PTSD and anxiety. Currently this is my main job, so I have a lot of availability and can devote a lot of time and attention to your pet. I am happy to drive or take the train to your home in Nassau, Queens, or Brooklyn. I am available for short drop in visits or long term housesitting and overnight stays.

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the personalized care and genuine connection I build with every dog I watch. I treat each dog like family—taking time to understand their routines, personality, and unique needs. I go beyond basic care by offering enriching play, structured walks, and plenty of love and attention to help your dog feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and always send updates, so you have peace of mind knowing your dog is in caring, capable hands. My goal is to make your dog feel at home—even when they’re not!” This fit perfectly into my schedule due to me working from home , which allows me to give more attentive care for all furry friends I have fenced yard for privacy so our furry friend can round around in peace I’m also very attentive to the dogs need and wants

About: I've taken care of my 9 year old Pekingese Jax since he was a puppy! He's my Taurus bestie! Now I have the joy of raising my 6 month old Goldendoodle Sevyn! Routine and fun is KEY! I currently work part time so I have plenty availability to care for and have fun with your fur baby! Schedule times for feeding and peepee poopoo time! At my home I have a large patio where your pet can eat, chill and lounge and people watch! However you parent your pet at home will be the rules I follow!

“This was our first booking with Patricia and we're really happy with how everything went. She's exactly what we were looking for in a cat sitter and we will definitely be booking her again in the future. She handled everything we asked for and then some. It was a relief to know that our cats were being well looked after twice a day. We also really appreciated the updates and pictures she sent after her visits. Highly recommended!”


“Our dogs can be a little difficult. Two of them are seniors and one is a rescue puppy who is very insecure. Don did an exceptional job of taking care of them and we’re grateful to him for his conscientious care of our babies.”


About: I’ve pet sat for neighbor’s, family members, and friends from fish, cats, dogs, and reptiles. Unfortunately very little experience with birds but am always up to learn. It fits in my daily life cause I myself have two beautiful cats named Maple and Moka who I follow proper cat nutrition and I walk my sisters dog one or twice a week. I will follow exact instructions as provided by the owner of the pet(s) and I can offer suggestions and basic training for pets upon request.

“Caitlyn is kind and caring ! She was punctual , and even arrived a little earlier :) Milo was very happy in all of the photos she sent me. I know he had a great time playing with her. She was attentive and communicated with me during the visit. I will definitely book with Caitlyn again to care for Milo :) He was in good hands 🥰”


About: I will never leave your pet alone! I am retired have more than 8 years experience with cats and dogs. You won’t regret this pet sitter! I am currently retired from teaching little kids and now seeking to work with pets! I have tons of experience and will carefully watch your pet. I can watch big dogs but only one at a time. I have a completely fenced in yard and will not leave your pet unsupervised, I only use an un-retractable leash for extra pet safety .

About: I adopted a feral from my backyard and made it into a house cat! I also have experience cat sitting my neighbors cat and animals. I currently have two cats of my own, so I understand the dynamics of having multiple cats at home. I am a teacher with summers off so I have plenty of time to cat sit. I am free most afternoons as well for pet care needs. I have my own home so there is enough space for all the cats to enjoy. They have three floors to roam around freely without having to worry about getting along with each other.

About: I've taken care of a series of dogs from a Jack Russell Terrier, to a Pit bull, to a Husky and Pit bull mix and enjoyed them all. All of the dogs have stayed overnight and their owner are more than happy. I recently had a dog who it was his first time away from his owner so I had to build his trust. Within 24 hrs he was comfortable, jumping around with me, licking me, and making sure I was always near him. I tend to keep the owners up to date with pictures or videos if they would like and they always come back. I am a college student who works from home part time. Outside of that, I go to the gym and attend zoom meetings for my extracurricular activities. This gives me a lot of time to dedicate to the dogs and make sure they are well at all times. I have a fenced yard and security cameras at both the front door and back door as do all my neighbors. A variety of treats are always available for trust and training purposes. I make sure that someone is always home so your dog isn't alone, although I'm more than likely at home.

About: I have volunteered and worked at my local animal shelter for the past 5 years and grew up with 4 large breed dogs owned by my parents.

I am extremely excited to care for and work with your furry family members! Pets are part of the family and I intend to treat all of your pets as if they were my very own children and family member. Dog training was definitely an experience for me and I have gained a lot of knowledge from working with different breeds and can offer some advice when it comes to certain training questions you may have!

About: I have been surrounded by pets ever since I learned to walk! I have had three dogs of my own ranging from as small as a yorkie to as big as a mastiff. I also have 5 years of experience with cats. I’m experienced in caring for senior pets as well as temperamental puppies/kittens.

I also have pockets of free time during the week to take care of pets! I can help crate your pets. For check ins, I can help with feeding your pet, taking them on walks, and playing with them if that’s what they need.

Tina Y.
“Tina is caring, affectionate and attentive to not only her friends and family, she has the same sentiments (if not more) towards animal. She has experience caring for her previous disable dog and the love between them is apparent. I know Tina will do an excellent job as a caregiver.”




Maria M.
“Maria is a very responsible and caring individual who works extremely well with animals. She has pet sat my pet dog Cindy numerous times and is always so gentle with her. She is a diligent caretaker with pets and took all my concerns seriously (e.g., making sure to add boiled carrots to her dog food, placing her food on a plate or on the floor as her bowl causes her whisker fatigue, etc.). I could not recommend anyone more as a pet caregiver than Maria.”


Aimee G.
“Aimee is the ideal pet-sitter. I’ve hired her many times—ranging from just a couple of days to a couple of weeks—and every experience has been nothing short of perfect. She is exceptionally reliable, giving me complete peace of mind whenever I’m away. Her calm, capable, and intelligent approach means she can handle anything that might come up. On occasions when my dog required medication, Aimee managed it with ease and care. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals, and my pets adore her in return. She stays overnight in my home, caring not only for my pets but also respecting my space. Aimee is an honest, trustworthy person to whom I can confidently entrust both my beloved pets and my home.”
