“I felt comfortable leaving my 2 cats to be cared for by Alyssa. She was able to drop in prior to the booking to get instructions and communicated well. The cats are very shy - practically feral - but she was still able to snap a photo. I would definitely book with her again.”

“Gaby is an incredible, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. She made sure my girl Maeby felt very loved and cared for while I was out of town, playing and walking with her, and even making sure she was taking her prescription meds. I knew I didn't have to worry once while Maeby was in Gaby's hands! 10/10 pet sitter, would recommend!”
4. Lilia F.
“Lilia was great! Super flexible on coming by my place to get keys / learn how to get in / learn where everything was for the cat sitting. She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. You can really tell she is a pet lover, pet owner, and overall quality person. She has become my recommended sitter, and you will not be disappointed if you use her!”
5. Michaela M.
“Michaela was great! She made my dog feel comfortable and made sure all my requests were met! She treated my dog as if they were one of her own dogs. Michaela bonded immediately with my dog and took great care and effort into making sure my dog was having the best time ever! I definitely would recommend Michaela to anyone who wants a great experience!”
6. Hannah A.
“Hannah took care of my little Juju and she made sure she got all her medication's. She seemed trustworthy and was very friendly. She was responsive and sent update photos of my cat. I would use her again.”
7. Daina G.
“I have known Daina for over a decade and have trusted her with my low riders with special needs (my first shih tzu had ivdd and my most recent little guy had seizures due to a brain tumor). The level of care, attentiveness, and concern Daina has shown them matched that of her own fur kids. Daina is thoughtful, thorough, and considerate and keeps in constant communication to keep one’s mind at ease. Her photography skills are nothing to scoff at so expect some cute “proof of life” updates. I promise you will not regret entrusting your companions with her!”
8. Valeria R.
“Valeria was amazing staying with my 2 cats when i was away for a weekend! She took great care of them and sent picture updates everyday. She was also so easy to work with and flexible to my schedule - I almost had to cancel and she was able to work it out with me when I found out I didn't have to cancel! Will definitely have her come watch my boys again ☺️”

About: Growing up, I had the pleasure of taking care of my family members dogs. My family is a big animal person so every time we would visit someone’s house there was either a dog or a cat. Since I didn’t have a dog growing up, I would always ask my family members if I can take care of their dog give me a lot of practice that I didn’t know I would need when I found my dog. I was only used to taking care of smaller dogs until my brother and I were walking and saw a dog tied up to a pole and noticed nobody was coming to get her we ended up convincing my mom to keep the dog so we ended up naming her lucky because we were lucky to find her. We ended up realizing that she was older dog so when we found her, she was already about 15 years old so we got to spend her last few years with her and they were absolutely the best because of my dog I know I want to be a service to dogs and cats and spend time with them because they are very special. I have a car, so I am able to travel to provide pet care. Right now I am working part time so it gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I do not have pets living with me, so you’re pet will always have my u divided attention. I follow instructions very well, so whatever is needed for your pet I am here to assist.

About: I grew up on a Ranchin Texas surrounded by all sorts of animals. Working dogs, pet dogs, cats, chickens, goats and more. Since moving to NYC 15 years ago we have owned cats and snakes and foster dogs and kittens regularly. We work with both a rescue and NYCACC. My children are very animal savvy and have helped train and work with a number of our fosters. (Under my supervision) I live by a beautiful nature preserve on Jamaica bay and love to take my fosters and dogs I babysit there. I'm currently in school online, and have a very flexible schedule to meet your pet care needs. I can be available early mornings and late evenings. As well as have availability for afternoon walks and care. I have a fenced in yard. 3 dog savvy cats who have their own dedicated space to hide from our fosters and boarder dogs. In my home your dog becomes family with lots of human sisters to play with and a couch to chill on. In your home I adapt to your schedule and routine easily trying to keep the dog in as familiar of a routie as possible.

18. Casey V.
“Casey is an absolutely incredible pet sitter. I naturally had some anxiety about going on my trip because this was my first time leaving my fur babies for an extended period of time! Casey did such a wonderful job taking care of them and would send updates and pictures. Very quickly, my anxiety subsided since I knew my furry family members were in great hands! Casey is definitely my new go-to pet sitter and I highly recommend her to anyone looking. :)”
