About: Hello my name is Magaly but you can call me Maggie. I’m Literally enjoying my dream job, engaging with animals. Taking care of dogs (pitbull) (chihuahua) (German shepherds) (poodles) on and off for 10 years, recently have been taking care of cats for 2 1/2 years. I’m allergic to cats but I’m willing to take care of them if opportunity comes. Claritin has become my best fiend. I have a lot of patience and determination with animals but mostly love. I can show them tricks and really just spend quality time with them, Making them feel comfortable treating them as if they where my own. One of the quotes I live by on my daily basis is “be the person your dog thinks you are” I cherish to heart. I have a graveyard shift, which gives me the ability to be free in the afternoon and evenings. I don’t have a Monday through Friday Job, which gives me the availability to fit them perfectly in my weekly routine. I first get to know your fur baby on what they like and dislike. I try to make them feel comfortable by giving them attention, taking them out for walks and most of all play with them so they do not get bored.

“⸻ Let me just say—after my first two dog sitters, I almost gave up on this app 🙂. But I’m so glad I found Victor. He is incredibly kind and truly cares. My dog absolutely loves him—he wags his tail and gets just as excited to see Victor as he does to see me, which says everything. Victor is also very reliable. He doesn’t just stick to the exact booked time or show up late like others. He often arrives a few minutes early and sometimes stays a little longer, which I really appreciate. It shows how genuine and dedicated he is. I also have a camera at home, since my dog can’t tell me about his day—and it’s clear that Victor treats him with care and attention. That gives me a lot of peace of mind. He will definitely be my to-go dog sitter moving forward!”

“Shadow and I got lucky with this young woman! She is a great fit for shadow. He’s a big sweet boy with separation anxiety. She knew how to take charge and keep herself and him safe. We are very happy with the service she provided. And we get to see her again”

“Binta was a wonderful sitter for my Cleo! I appreciate how she took the time to get to know Cleo and wrote meaningful updates. Cleo is a shy, reserved girl but Binta was able to get through to her! I hope to book with Binta again in the future. Thanks for everything, Binta!!”

“Bryant did a superb job with our three cats! He made himself available on short notice and did a great job tending to their individual meds. We could tell the cats liked him, too. Would definitely hire again!”
“Tosha was wonderful and took such great care of both our cats! One of cats has a lot of medications, and she was so thorough in making sure she got all her meds. Thank you!”

“Shelly has been checking on my doggie, few times per week on regular basis, for the past few weeks. She is very kind, caring, reliable and on time... My puppy has had some GI issues couple of times during this time and Shelly has been very caring for her. My little pooch luvs Shelly so much! she looks at the door, excited, looking for Shelly when ever I mention Shelly’s name! I’ve been feeling really at ease and peaceful, when I know she is coming to check on my doggie. Thank you very much Shelly :)”

“Lili took care of our cat, Mishmish, while we were on vacation. She followed instructions to the T, and our elderly cat, who is usually pretty lethargic and not overly friendly, warmed up to her. We came back to clean litter box, swept floors, and our cat having fresh water and food. We will absolutely work with Lili again when we travel for extended period of time, and highly recommend her to any pet owner.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was five years old, so caring for animals has always been a natural and important part of my life. I am patient, loving, and attentive to each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog is playful, shy, energetic, or older and needs a gentler pace, I will provide dependable care, affection, exercise, and plenty of attention. I will also follow your instructions carefully and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently not working, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walks during weekdays and weekends. For pets that are not comfortable around other dogs or cats, I can also provide a quiet, separate space in my mother’s apartment, which is located in the same building. This allows me to give your pet personalized care in an environment where they can feel safe and relaxed. I care for every pet according to their normal routine, personality, and specific needs. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and affection. For pets that are not comfortable around other dogs or cats, I can offer a quiet, separate space in my mother’s apartment, located in the same building. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions while respecting their home and keeping everything clean and organized. I also send regular photos and updates so pet parents can feel relaxed knowing their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I enjoy creating a special bond with dogs and cats, always going beyond walking, feeding, and keeping them company. I am committed to not disrupting current schedules while providing extra enrichment and giving your baby another human to trust. It is important to me that everyone leaves better because of that trust and time spent, including myself. Special skills include long term care, caring for 3+ animals, puppy training, medication administration (including cbd), senior care, caring for anxious animals, as well as reptile care (I am a reptile parent). I work freelance, giving me full control of my weekly schedule. Pet care seamlessly fits into my routine because it is already a part of my routine, I have been in pet care consistently for 6 years. I also must be walked daily, and enjoy taking those walks in different neighborhoods with different companions. I prefer to care for pets in spaces where they feel comfortable and safe, their home. While I am in your home I am always respectful and clean. It is important to me that I have an understanding of house rules, your pets schedule, and emergency contacts including their vet.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with a special place in my heart for every stage of a dog’s life—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to sweet senior dogs who deserve extra patience, comfort, and care. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply quiet companionship, I’m committed to providing attentive, loving care that helps them feel safe and happy while you’re away. As a dependable and compassionate caregiver, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering routines, reinforcing basic training, and adjusting walks and activities based on your dog’s age, energy level, and abilities. I know how important consistency is, especially for puppies developing good habits and senior dogs who may need a slower pace and a little extra TLC. Clear communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your best friend is in caring hands. I look forward to meeting you and your dog and becoming someone you can trust whenever you need a reliable walker or pet sitter! Pet care fits naturally into my week. As a Teacher, during the school year, I’m available before and after work, in the evenings, on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks. I enjoy starting or ending my day with dog walks and spending quality time with pets while their families are away. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s unique needs and routine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks through the neighborhood, playtime, feeding on a set schedule, medication, or simply companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Living and working in the Bronx area, I’m familiar with local parks and pet-friendly walking routes and always prioritize your pet’s safety, well-being, and happiness. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve had the joy of being around dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up with both small and large breeds since I was a little girl. Caring for them is a lifelong passion for me. I love not only spending time with dogs but also training them, learning about their unique personalities, and making sure they feel happy, healthy, and understood. My goal as a sitter is to give each dog the same level of love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is thriving while you’re away. As a freelance artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my day around the needs of the pets I care for. My work in the arts gives me the freedom to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I can easily adjust my routine, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention and love. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure environment that they are free from hazards, with access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of safe play space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to exercise schedules, and keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure it’s kept tidy and secure. My goal is to provide both the pet and their owner with peace of mind, knowing they’re in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.
About: Hi my name is Brandon. I was raised in New York and have owned a few dogs over the years. I have about 12 years of experience walking and sitting for different breeds of dogs including stubborn bulldogs, hyper huskies, large golden retrievers, etc. I'm available all days, mostly afternoons and nights. I'll walk in any weather conditions, whether it's snowing, raining or scorching hot. I will be sure to care for your dog and they are my own because I know how much they mean to you. I can run and play with your dog or I can take it easy. I will make sure to log and report any physical and behavioral changes I observe while on a walk or while pet sitting.
“One of the best sitters out there! Very professional and sweet. Helped my Mollie out by giving her meds when it was storming and I was at work. Daily pictures. Very understanding with schedule changes. My pups love her dearly! I can’t say enough good things. Highly recommend!”
“Fallon was a wonderful sitter. She took great care of our cat and sent us pictures of her while we were away. She was very considerate and communicative, from our initial conversations through the end of the booking. We would definitely ask her to sit for us again in a heartbeat.”


“Very pleased with the care and attention Tasha gave to my babies. I left detailed notes to which she followed. Highly recommend Tasha to care for your furbabies.”

I’ve booked Alexandria twice now and hope to do so more in the future- what can I say, I feel secure and confident in her services. She's reliable and warm, so food with my beast. Super knowledgeable about cat behavior and full on helpful advice; thank you, Ali!

Binta took care of our three cats while we were away for ten days - I can't say enough positive things about our experience with her! She is thoughtful, generous, and extremely professional. She was through in her care, diligent in administering medication, and worked hard to make sure they were well cared for. She asked questions when needed, and took extra time to clean up the apartment before we returned. We had recently moved into a new apartment and she even took the time to train our cats to each eat from their respective bowls! It was a pleasure having her take care of our family while we were away - and we looked forward to her detailed updates. I would wholeheartedly recommend her for pet care and look forward to working with her in the future!

Dominick is tremendous, and we will continue booking with him! He's taken care of our two cats several times now, and each time we get back into town, it's obvious that our cats have been well taken care of. Dominick takes expert pictures, and provides detailed and (frequently) hilarious commentary about our cats' behavior and antics--so much so that Dominick's daily reports and photos have become a delightful part of our vacations while we're away! We recommend him highly. Thank you Dominick! Peter & John and Bev & Paul

Suli was AWESOME! I’m very nervous about leaving my cat (Nuit) but Suli put my mind at ease. At our meet and greet she was punctual, friendly, and took notes while we spoke. During her check-ins, she sent lots of photos and went above and beyond to make sure Nuit was happy by playing with her and even creating enrichment activities. Highly recommend booking Suli and I will definitely use her in the future!
