“Elizabeth was super responsive and always answered my sometimes ridiculous questions. She didn’t make me feel like I was being a paranoid Pet parent even though I know I was. She even got my old man grumpy cat to play a little bit. I would give her six stars if I could.”


“She is the best and most patient sitter I have ever met. She not only did a fantastic job she helped my Dino start to get over his anxiety! Work in progress as it’s a journey and she has the patience of a saint!”


About: I have been caring for animals my entire life. As a 10 year old child, I was fostering dogs while managing my schoolwork and evolving social life. I have had and cared for many different types of pets, including (but not limited to): dogs, cats, birds, hermit crabs, and hamsters. As a 28 year old adult, I now have a sweet dog named Zelda (GSD/Husky mix, 5yrs, 60lbs), whom I adopted at 3 months. I trained her myself and had her fully housebroken with no accidents within 5 months. I have also cared for and assisted in training my mother's dog Sumo (St. Bernard, ~9yrs, 165lbs. With my life experience and graduate degree in psychology, I am very capable of handing whatever comes my way. I look forward to meeting you and your baby! I am working part-time on the weekends and on Tuesday, Wednesdays, and Thursday nights. Therefore, I have a great deal of time to dedicate to your loved ones and make sure they are well cared for! I regularly take my dogs out for relief and exercise in my yard. They get regular feedings and water bowl cleanings to make sure they are well fed and hydrated. When it gets hot, I make sure to add ice cubes to their water, provide them with pupsicles (frozen dog safe ice cream!), and keep the AC running. I always make sure to build in playtime and snuggles to make them feel loved and cared for.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life and understand the importance of treating every animal like family. I have hands on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy level from high energy pups that need structured walks and playtime, to senior dogs who require a gentler approach. I’ve also looked after cats and small animals, and I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, and providing updates to pet parents for peace of mind. ✨ Special Skills • 🐶 Experience with puppies & senior pets • 💊 Can administer oral medications • 🐾 Skilled in leash training and managing high-energy walks • ❤️ Strong intuition for animal behavior & emotional needs • 📸 Happy to provide daily photo updates • 🧽 Clean, respectful, and committed to leaving your home just as you left it • 🚗 Reliable transportation and flexible scheduling I have a very Flexible Full Time Schedule Available. I am Available Weekdays Monday-Friday & Weekends Saturday- Sunday with your pups. Feel free to share and specific instructions or special care needs & allergies. I have a fenced yard for plenty of play time but I also love taking the pups on walks or to the local dog parks if allowed. I like to get anything approved prior as I understand pet anxiety and stress can be possible.

“Leidy took amazingly good care of Tessa. She was very punctual and made us feel at peace while traveling. She cleaned the litter tray, gave Tessa water and food and plenty of cuddles and playtime. Thanks very much, Leidy!”


About: I’ve raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood and have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets with both routine and special needs. I've fostered animals, administered medications, and even cared for pets recovering from serious illnesses like Parvo. I understand the patience, attention, and love that pets need at every stage of life—whether it's a playful pup or a senior companion needing extra care. Your pet’s well-being and comfort are always my top priority. As a student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I'm only on campus three days a week for a few hours, and the rest of the time I can do my schoolwork from anywhere. That means I’m available to spend quality time with your pet—whether it's for regular walks, playtime, or just keeping them company throughout the day. Your pet will never feel like an afterthought; they’ll get the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I take time to understand each pet’s unique needs, routines, and personality to make sure they feel secure and at ease. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep everything clean and consistent with your pet’s routine. In my home, pets have a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection. I always follow any instructions you provide down to the smallest detail—whether it’s feeding, medications, crate training, or just their favorite way to be petted. I also provide regular updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands.

About: Hi, my name is Alex! I'm a huge lover of pets. I have had two dogs (both bulldogs) and two cats (also a fish!) This will be my first experience professionally taking care of animals. But I'm eager, excited and more than ready to start! I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I also love cats! I have always had a passion for being around animals and would love to spend time making some new furry friends. My biggest priority is making you and your pet feel comfortable. Feel free to ask me any questions about myself, or any concerns you may have. I'd love to chat! I am currently a student, so I do not have to most flexible schedule. I am usually free in the late afternoon and on the weekends. I work a full-time hybrid schedule in NYC, which gives me time in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends to care for and love your pets! Even with a busy workday, I always make time for animals—they’re a big part of my life. Let me know what works best for you, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine! I create a safe, comfortable environment for every pet, following their routine and needs. Whether at my home or a client’s, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and care while respecting their space. I ensure dogs are securely leashed on walks and keep their surroundings safe. My goal is to offer reliable, loving care so you and your pet feel at ease.

About: I love dogs and have had 2 of my own. I also used to foster dogs, and at one time had 8 doggies in my home! I recently lost my 12 year old beagle and am looking to offer my love and time to other people's furry companions. I am available for walks and boarding any time! I work from home so I am able to give lots of love, attention, and walks to your fur baby if they stay with me ❤️ I am happy to book for recurring walks up to 4x/week I live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in yard. I live in a shared house, with a separate living space. There is a beagle living in the home (he is very friendly!!), but I can keep him completely separated if need be. Your pet's wellbeing is my top priority. 🐾


About: My heart doesn’t know any other way-when it comes to animals, I love them instantly and unconditionally. I have 18+ years of experience caring for animals, starting from a very young age. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for both Pitbulls and French Bulldogs but to me, breed doesn’t matter. I truly love all animals, big or small. I’m bilingual and speak both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with a wider range of pet parents and provide clear, open communication. I’ve always been the go-to person for anything pet-related. My family calls me the dog whisperer because I have a natural bond with animals, especially dogs. Whether it’s advice, health concerns, or just being a listening ear, I’m the one family and friends trust with their fur babies. My soul dog was a red nose pitbull named Bricks- he taught me what real love is. Since then, I’ve raised three amazing French Bulldogs: Juicy, Kuma, and Tron. I also had the incredible experience of raising two litters from birth- Juicy had 5 puppies and Kuma had 6. I provided round-the-clock care until they were ready for their forever homes. I still keep in touch with the families- they became part of mine. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I regularly pet-sit for friends, family, and neighbors-dogs and cats alike. One of my most consistent companions is Max, my neighbor’s dog, whom I’ve been caring for for over a year. I give him daily medication and make sure he always feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ve also cared for a bearded dragon, who was part of our family for 11 wonderful years. I’m familiar with reptile needs, feeding, handling, and tank care. I also have experience caring for a cockatiel, including feeding, changing water, and maintaining a calm, happy environment for birds. I’m experienced with: Giving medication Drop-in visits Long walks and playtime Baths and basic grooming Feeding routines and crate care Newborn puppy care and socialization Basic reptile and bird care I truly treat every pet like they’re my own because in my heart, they are. The amount of kisses, cuddles, love, and attention your pet will receive is immense. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, comforted, and cared for like family. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. You can trust me to provide more than just care. I offer love, safety, and genuine companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, feedings, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Being home full-time means your pet will never feel alone and will always have someone nearby to care for and comfort them. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m visiting yours, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. At my home, pets have plenty of room to play and relax-I have a large fenced-in yard that's perfect for safe outdoor time and supervised play. If your pet is crate-trained or needs a crate for naps or bedtime, I can easily accommodate that too. I follow each pet’s routine closely-feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care instructions-to make sure they feel at home. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and ensure everything is done exactly how you’d like. I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for. I treat every pet like family and work hard to create a calm, loving, and secure environment, whether they’re with me or in their own home.

About: I’ve cared for a wide range of pets—from stubborn puppies to senior cats—with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. I trained my Japanese Akita (not an easy breed!) to sit, spin, give paw, lie down, and other tricks, which taught me how to work with strong-willed dogs using positive reinforcement. I’ve also given daily injections to a sick Bengal kitten and have experience with both senior and rescue cats. Whether it’s walks or just providing comfort and companionship, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I genuinely love animals and pride myself on being reliable and fully present with the pets I care for. I’m a part-time nurse, working just two days a week with a schedule that changes weekly. I’m also currently pursuing my master’s degree online, which gives me a lot of flexibility. This means I can usually adjust my availability to meet your pet’s needs—whether it’s a midday walk, weekend visit, or daily drop-ins. I genuinely love spending my free time with dogs/cats! Every pet is different. Whether your cat prefers quiet company or your dog loves non-stop playtime, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I always follow your instructions closely—after all, no one knows your pet better than you! I personalize my care based on what works best for them and keep you updated regularly with messages and photos. I have my own car, so once I know who I’m seeing and where to go, I’m all set. My goal is to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
