“Lorenzo did an amazing job walking our baby! Latte doesn’t need much: just a little walk to pee and poop and then he’s ready to head back in. He did just that and it was a great help as I work a hybrid schedule so I’m unable to walk Latte when I’m in office. Having someone come over while we’re out of the house and tend to our baby’s schedule is just something we need, especially with such a trustworthy dog handler! Latte was very amicable with Lorenzo, so this is definitely a great start to something new.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life and take pride in making sure that any animal I encounter is well cared for. I have experience with cats, dogs of all sizes including large dogs (150+ lbs). I currently work full time but from home half the week. I am able to do drop in visits and walks mid-day as well as before and after work hours. As a cat/dog Walker and sitter I treat every home I visit with the same care and respect I have for the animals. I will only ever follow instructions the owners have provided as it relates to their pets and home.
About: I've had pets my whole life, both dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I am especially able to take care of animals with health issues. My current cat, Oliver has 3 legs and my dog, Chewy, has epilepsy. I'm currently a law student, so I have time to pet-sit and take your pets for a walk after classes on weekdays and on weekends. I am available all day on most Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am also available most weekdays after 3:30, except Wednesdays. If you need me to come by for a walk or to watch your pet but are flexible on the time, I will work with you to come in between classes. I am able to take care of pets in your home. I have reliable transportation so I can be there when you and your pet need me. I am detail-oriented and will do my best to follow any schedules or instructions you have for your pet.

Throughout my career, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, giving medications, monitoring pets, and recognizing when something may not be quite right. My veterinary experience has taught me to be patient, attentive, and responsible with every pet in my care. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, companionship while you’re away, or extra attention and care, I treat every animal like they are my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Im currently working but I can definitely go during my breaks to go see your babies feed them and walk them until my next visit of the day. Weekends are good as well. My schedule for work is very flexible Of course treat them as they are my own. My love for animals are like my babies I make sure they are comfortable if they have a blanket that they love would be a A+ Bring their toys and play with them and make sure they had enough play time so they sleep peacefully.
“Kerry is a gem!! My senior dog needs lots of TLC and patience (he's lost most of his vision and hearing, has trouble with stairs and occasionally gets confused), so I was nervous about bringing in someone to walk him. Kerry immediately put my fears to rest -- asked all the right questions, was wonderful with my dog, and communicated well and often during the visit. I won't hesitate to have him visit again and am relieved I found him.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner with a sweet senior pup of my own. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your dog, and I treat every pup I care for with the same attention, patience, and affection I give my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages and energy levels, including senior dogs, and I can administer oral medications when needed. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, a potty break, or simply some company and cuddles, I’m happy to follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I currently have flexible weekday and weekend availability for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m also big on communication, so you can expect updates and photos while your pet is in my care. My goal is simple: a happy pup and a pet parent who can relax knowing their dog is in good hands. :) I currently have flexible availability throughout the week and on weekends, which allows me to accommodate daytime walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine whenever possible. As a longtime dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I follow each pet’s normal routine and any instructions provided by their owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and household preferences. I’m attentive to each dog’s comfort level and behavior and always prioritize keeping them safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover, especially when it comes to dogs! I’ve had dogs throughout my life, including my soul dog, Hazel, who will always have a special place in my heart. Having been a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust to care for your pets. I have experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy being around animals. I’m also a proud turtle mom to River! Having different pets has taught me that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. A little fun fact about me! The sweet senior dog in my profile photo is actually a Sato rescue from Puerto Rico. I had the opportunity to be a Flight Angel and help transport her from Puerto Rico to NYC so she could start her new life! It was such a special experience, and I’m so happy I got to be a small part of her journey. Something else about me is that I’d love to foster animals someday! I’ve always had a soft spot for rescue animals, and I hope to be able to help more of them find their forever homes in the future. I’m a responsible, trustworthy, and caring person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know our pets are family, and I would treat yours with the same love and care I’d want for my own! I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and would love to make a regular part of my routine! I currently work during the week, but I have flexibility in my schedule and am happy to coordinate walks and drop-in visits around my availability. I’m also available on weekends! I love spending time with animals, so getting to incorporate that into my week is something I really look forward to. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and that’s something I take seriously! I always do my best to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I make sure to follow any instructions you leave, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just their favorite way to play! I’m also very respectful of people’s homes and will always make sure everything is left just as I found it. I’m happy to send pictures and updates during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is doing well and getting plenty of love and attention!
“Would 100% recommend Italia!! She did wonderful with my senior dog. His health isn’t very good and she was patient with him and made him feel very comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker!”
“Grace was wonderful with our Jack Russell pup! She was so caring and attentive, and we felt completely confident knowing our pup was in the best hands. We highly recommend Grace and are so grateful for the wonderful care she provided. Thank you so much 🐾❤️”
“Tara is an absolutely phenomenal dog sitter! She has been a part of our lives for over a year now. Most recently, she took care of our two dogs, Watson and Huckleberry, from November 23 to November 29, and we couldn’t be happier with her service. Tara went above and beyond to ensure Watson and Huckleberry were comfortable and happy. She visited them four times a day, providing them with plenty of attention, exercise, and love. When the weather allowed, she took them on walks, which they both love, and during two of the visits each day, she handled their feedings perfectly. It was clear she followed all instructions and understood their routines. One of the highlights of working with Tara was the regular updates she provided. She sent us messages and photos during each visit, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected even though we were away. Seeing Watson and Huckleberry relaxed and happy in the photos reassured us they were well cared for. What truly stands out about Tara is how dependable she is. Our dogs are completely comfortable with her, which is no small feat, given how attached they are to us. Tara’s professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Watson and Huckleberry adore her, and we’re so grateful for the exceptional care she consistently provides them. Thank you, Tara, for treating our dogs like your own!”
About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable, and animal-loving pet sitter with hands-on experience in veterinary and animal care settings. As a pre-vet student, I’ve developed strong skills in animal handling, observation, and compassionate care through clinical and research environments. I worked as a veterinary assistant at Cornell University Specialists, where I gained experience working alongside veterinary professionals and strengthened my understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I also have a 11-year-old cockatiel and two cats of my own, so I truly understand the daily care, attention, and trust it takes to look after someone’s pets. I prioritize patience, attentiveness, and routine, making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or special care needs, I treat every animal like my own! I am also BLS and ALS CPR certified I am flexible and available throughout the week for dog sitting and house sitting. I am happy to help with daily visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I do not offer overnight stays, but I am reliable and willing to help wherever needed during the day. I provide attentive in-home pet care focused on safety, comfort, and routine consistency. I make sure pets are always in a secure environment—checking doors, gates, food access, and removing any hazards. I closely follow owner instructions for feeding, medications, and behavior routines to keep pets stable and stress-free in their home setting. With my basic medical knowledge from animal care experience, I am comfortable recognizing early signs of illness or distress (such as changes in appetite, vomiting, coughing, or lethargy) and responding appropriately by notifying the owner promptly and seeking guidance when needed. My goal is to ensure pets feel safe, cared for, and as close to their normal routine as possible while their owners are away

Erin is responsible, communicative, mature. She also tells me what my dog really did - not necessarily what I want to hear, such as “Pebbles only wanted to be out for five minutes so we sat together on the couch for the rest of the time.” I know exactly how stubborn Pebbles can be if she doesn’t want to stay outside and I really appreciate being told what actually happened. I look forward to a long relationship with Erin, including regular walks, as well as last minute walks and possibly boarding or petsitting as needed.
Drew walked our 2 dogs (a Lab and a Cocker Spaniel mix) every day for a week and it worked out great. He was very thorough in his communications and punctual on each visit. Our dogs can be anxious, but Drew was great with them and they instantly became comfortable. I would highly recommend Drew.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Elmsford. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
