Pet Sitting Ettingville

About: I have three years of experience dog sitting and walking, along with personal experience caring for both cats and dogs of my own. I have also successfully trained my youngest cat to do tricks such as sit, stand, and “say hi.” Through my pet care experience, I’ve worked with animals of different ages, sizes, and needs, including senior dogs who required extra patience, careful feeding routines, and slower-paced walks. I am also comfortable handling larger dogs, as well as dogs who may need extra support on walks due to special needs, mobility challenges, anxiety, or age-related limitations. I always make sure to adjust my care to each pet’s comfort level, personality, and routine so they feel safe, supported, and well cared for. I am available Monday through Friday! Specifically, Wednesdays I am available from 7am to 12pm and Friday from 2:30pm to 5:30pm. Every other day my availability is 7am through 6pm. Feel free to reach out if you need a sitter or walker in a pinch and I will always try my best to fit you in. 30-Minute Dog Sitting Drop-In: I stop by to make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and cared for with fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Here, is when I’d administer any oral medication (or extra aid based on requests) for your dogs. Every visit is tailored to each dog’s routine and personality making it an experience they won’t forget! 30-Minute Dog Walk: During our walk, I make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, sniffing time, and positive engagement while following their preferred pace and routine. I also provide fresh water if needed, reinforce good leash manners, and ensure they return home happy, safe, and content. 30-Minute Cat Sitting Drop-In: I provide your cat with fresh food and water, a tidy litter area, and the right mix of play, treats, or quiet companionship. From social butterflies to independent observers, I tailor each visit to their unique style and can administer oral medications or inhalers when needed.

“Amazing sitter! My kitty kitty couldn’t wait for her to arrive every day. Going above and beyond, sitting and spending time with my kitty, making sure he had plenty of pets and love. Changing his food and water daily with multiple photos and videos to keep me in the loop. Noelle did a fantastic job and definitely will be using her again!”

“My husband and I used Alexis for the second time. This time for 4 full days, with 3 drop ins each day. She took wonderful care of our 2 cats and one dog. She kept the litter box very clean and made sure our pets got their medicine. Alexis has such a caring personality and kindness to her that our pets love. We are very thankful for her help.”

About: Hello fellow animal lovers. I am a Veterinary Technician with over 20 years of experience for caring for hundreds of dogs, cats, birds and any kind of animal you can think of. My husband Andres is also a vet tech with over 15 years of experience and he helps me take care of any of the pets I watch. I used to mainly watch dogs in my home but since Covid we had a baby and she is allergic to dogs so I can't board in my home anymore which makes me very sad. Hopefully my daughter will grow out of her allergies eventually because we really do miss having dogs in our home and she loves dogs too. So now I can only do drop in visits at your home for any type of pet. I am currently not working and am a stay at home Mom but my daughter is in school now so I can do drop ins during school hours and then after my husband comes home from work in the evenings. I have dedicated my life to caring for and helping all animals and I have loved every second of it. I have experience with every age, breed, species and medical problem. I have years of experience of caring for any illness, physical and behavioral problems and administering any medications or medical treatments necessary. I have had many dogs, cats and other small creatures of my own that i have loved and cared for over the years as well. I love taking dogs out to play and bringing them to the park or wherever they enjoy going to the most. I have a car and can travel to any part of Staten Island. Nothing makes me happier than spending time and playing with as many little fur babies as i can. You can set your mind at ease knowing that experienced, caring veterinary technicians are caring for your precious baby while you are away.

I had a German Shepherd that was the same age as i was when i was a baby and we grew up together. He was my best friend and we did everything together and i still miss him to this day. I have had many German Shepherds and other dogs since then and have loved them all just as much as my first dog. I have dedicated my life to caring for and helping every living creature there is and i love them all. About my yard Large fenced in yard with plenty of room to run around and play.

I can care for your pet in your home and drop in 2-3 times a day to feed them, walk them or let them out in your yard. Depending on the time of day I can stay awhile to play with them and give them the lovin they are missing from you while you're away. I know pets can be afraid sometimes with new people and I like to take my time to show them that they can trust me and I will love them as much as you do and help ease their fears if they have any. I have many years of learning animal behavior working as a Veterinary technician and learning to help fearful pets.

“Abigail was excellent with our dog. She was always on time and made sure Hazel got lots of exercise and attention when she visited. She listened to our needs and made sure to follow everything we asked of her and kept Hazel's routines as close as to what she was already used to. Our dog loved her and we will def be using Abigail again.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I cared for a variety of dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I’m primarily available Thursday through Sunday, with a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and companionship throughout the day, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and any special care needs. I also make sure their environment stays safe and secure while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection.

About: At home we have always had dogs, I love, I take care of and I am passionate about being a temporary dad, I have experience in games, walks and canine understanding. I work from home, we are my partner and I are in charge of our 4-legged guests, we love going out to the park and have a wonderful day. We have a baby named Maya, super playful and willing to make friends. A very large park nearby and a lot of fun at home.

“We truly hit the pet-sitter jackpot. I hesitate to leave this review for fear that Tammy will become so beloved across Rover she will no longer have time for us! From the moment we met Tammy, it was clear our cats were possibly in better hands than our own (honestly, they seemed a little disappointed when we came back). Updates were consistent, thoughtful, and often included photos that looked like they belonged in a pet lifestyle magazine—somehow capturing both chaos and cuteness in equal measure. Our home was cared for, our girls were happy, and we’re fairly certain they learned better manners while we were gone which raises some questions about our own management style. What really stood out was the genuine care and attention—this wasn’t just “checking in,” it was full-on VIP treatment. Visits weren’t rushed, playtime wasn’t optional, and every detail was handled like it mattered (because it does). If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and clearly loved by animals, stop looking—you’ve found them. Just be warned: your pets may start expecting this level of service from you afterward. I still haven't mastered Tammy's double-Churu-dispensing skills, and the judgment from our girls is palpable.”

“Excellent experience with Lin. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats had everything they needed. Communicating with every visit with pictures and details, letting us know the exact situation, was very helpful to keep us reassured everything was fine.”

Marcos H.

“Jacqueline was amazing! She took such good care of our girl. Sent very thoughtful updates and photos!! Would definitely recommend Jacqueline, and hope to have her watch Ophelia again!”

Maria B.

“Ursula was fantastic! She knew exactly how to care for my anxious pup on her first time alone in a long time. The updates were great and her constant communication made me less anxious too. I'll be looking for Ursula next time Lola needs care.”

Chrissy C.

“Val was great!! Communicative and reliable — a true cat lover! We appreciated that she stayed to play with the cats for a while and didn’t just feed them and leave. ”
