“What a gem! I’d trust this woman with everything. She is so kind and sweet. Went above and beyond with our pets: sent us pictures, a brief text daily, washed and swept after the kitties. She’s a vet-tech also, so in an emergency she knows where to go. Worth every dollar plus tip for peace of mind and happy, healthy animals in our own home??”

“Tatiana is the best. This is the second time she takes care of our elderly cat and we feel so lucky to have her while away. Would highly recommend her for your pets. She is caring, knowledgeable and very good with animals that require extra care (our kittty is 17 and needs daily medication plus extra care). We also love that she sends a detailed report of each and every visit with tons of pictures.”

About: Hi! My name is will and I am a huge animal lover. I have helped care for my family dog and cat for the past 10 years as well as volunteering at a shelter. I know all the in’s and out’s of pet sitting. I have handled large dogs and while I am no expert I would definitely trust someone like myself more worth one than like a 100 pound woman (no offense :) I have a car so transportation is not an issue. I am charismatic, flexible, and very passionate about loving animals! If you have any questions at all feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! -Will I'll be working part time in Long Beach so looking to pick up some visits and walks on the side. Obviously we would coordinate it all ahead of time. I feel like I have a good understanding of a dog or cats needs with experience. Without speaking they can convey a lot of things subtlety (or loudly, depending on the animal). The goal is always to make sure they feel cared for and safe.

About: My house at the moment is located in Queens, NY. I owned a cocker spaniel for 11 years; Then, a chocolate Labrador for 8 years; he unfortunately passed in April (2023); that dog was my everything and I have not been the same since. I do not plan on getting more dogs so i have the chance to share the love i have for animals/dogs with hope it will bring some joy back into my life!! There is plenty of room for play, walks and cuddles for your fur baby! Attention is definitely what they will receive in my home!! A home full of an adoration for dogs is key to making sure your pup is happy and safe. My home is fairly big and clean with a fenced backyard, but since i am used to walking and if you prefer walks, i can do that for you as well. I am here to make sure you & your sweet baby is happy and feel comfortable & loved the time they are with me.
“Stephanie does a great job with our cats! Even our shy cat seems to like her. She gives good updates that let us just enjoy our trip without worrying about them. I’ve booked with her twice and plan to rebook in the future.”
