“Diana had great communication and went above and beyond to ensure my kitties were well taken care of. She even thought ahead to be sure that I would be home on time and make sure they had proper care just in case I was delayed. Snowy, Baby Kitty and I are so grateful. Thank You!”


“We are incredibly grateful to Karen for taking such wonderful care of our two dogs during our vacation through drop-in visits at the house. This enabled them to stay where they were comfortable and not be boarded. Karen was both professional and friendly, making us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was in contact with photos and summaries of visits which gave us peace of mind. She fed them, let them out, and engaged them in play. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs, and they loved her. We will certainly be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Karen, for your outstanding care!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and over the years, friend, family and neighbors have trusted me to look after their pets. From daily walks and trips to the park to feeding, bathing and overnight care, I've gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and size. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive love, attention, and the care they deserve. Whether it's an energetic pup who loves playtime or a senior dog needing extra patience, I'm committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience for every pet in my care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dog walking, check-ins, and overnight care throughout the week. Whether it's a morning or evening walk, a midday check-up, or extended overnight stay, I ensure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I love spending time with furry companions, so pet care doesn't feel like work it's something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily life. Whether in my home or a client's home, I ensure that every pet feels comfortable, safe and well care for. I live in an apartment, so I provide a clean and cozy indoor environment where pets have fresh food and water, plenty of playtime and quiet space to relax. Pets staying in my home will have regular walks and exercise, and I follow their routine as per the clients request to make sure they feel at home. When caring for pets in a client's home, I stick to their usual schedule to maintain consistency, ensuring they are fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of walks and attention. My goal is to make each pet feel at ease and cared for, whether they're staying with me or in their own familiar space.

About: Hi there! I’m Bryan, new here, but a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to my 7 year old rescue pitbull-terrier mix. I have always had a natural bond with animals of all types. I’m especially experienced with skittish or shy rescue dogs. Love cats as well! Offering walks, drop ins, and sittings in LI. Preferably only overnight sittings in NYC due to distance, LI sittings are fine for me to go back and forth to. For walks & drop in’s, I’m in Nassau county so wherever I can get quickly is best. Mostly available on weekdays but potentially some weekends. I can’t offer sittings at my home due to my dog, but more than happy to sit at yours. I love clear instructions on how to care for your pet so I can be sure to follow them for the pets diet, routine, and needs. Safety is a top priority, I’d be sure to keep any doors or gates closed and always be on the look out for any hazards. I would treat your home and pet the way I would mine. Glad to send regular updates or photos of your pet for your comfort. My goal is to take proper care of them!

About: I’m very attentive with animals. I love taking care of them. If I’m watching your dog, there’s a dog park right by me, which is so fun. I have a husky, and she’s so gentle and friendly with other animals. My life basically revolves around my dog and taking care of her. It would be the same with your pet. I wake up, take her outside, feed her, walk her three times a day, play with her cause she has a million toys, and much more. I care for my pet and would care for yours by making sure they always have water available, feed them according to their own routine, and make sure they spend plenty of time outside.

I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and regular walks. I follow each pet’s routine closely—meals, medications, and exercise—while giving them space to relax and feel at home. My goal is for them to feel loved, secure, and happy until they’re back in your arms.
