“Vanessa was great with our dog and guinea pig while my family was away. She was communicative, sent pictures and videos, followed all our instructions and took great care of our house . We will definitely use her again.”
“Schirn stayed at my home to watch my cat Pip while I was away. This is the second time Schirn has stayed with Pip. I highly recommend Schirn, she is great on communication with messages and photos of Pip who clearly was very comfortable being cared for by her.”
“Chris is the best! Hands down one of the BEST pet sitters for my babies. I am SUPER picky and don't usually book the same sitters unless I truly like them. Chris communicates very well and sees to my pets needs. Follows the itinerary very well, sends pictures, updates, and knows how to handle each one of them.”
“Rachel was great - very friendly, responsible, and had good calm energy for our puppy. Our pup can require a lot of supervision as he is still in the chewing phase and Rachel took good care of him!”
“Tedy was absolutely exceptional at house and cat sitting during my first trip in several years. Both cats instantly fell in love with her, she kept my home tidy, and really made me feel safe and assured knowing they were safe and loved in her hands. Tedy is now a friend and the sitter I will rely on forever, she’s amazing.”

“Also always, Andrea is amazing! She is helpful and perfect with my dog, who has some triggers! This time she stayed later because I was running late and it was much appreciated!”
“Erik was great and responsive, given the short notice on my end. He was punctual and provided updates with my Evie. Would absolutely recommend and book again. Thanks!”
About: I have worked and taken care of Animals my whole life. A dog changed how I see life. You realize all you need is some attention and reasoning an life can move on smoothly! I have two current dogs I care for dearly, I take care of them as they were human too. So I would expect me to do the same as well to your dogs. No matter what size or breed. To me and many dog owners know that no one can be as loyal as your dog. We see dogs more then just a pet to someone else. We see some them as humans best friend! Your dogs will love to meet a new friend! They will definitely love to meet me!
“Marisa R. was spectacular! We recommend Marisa to any family looking for someone to watch their pet and/or house. She met with us prior to watching our dog to find out all about him. When it came time to watch him, she followed his routine as described and sent us photos of all of the fun they had together. We felt so grateful to Marisa knowing that our dog was so well cared for while we were away. Thank you, Marisa!”
“Another great day being able to go to work and know that my boys are in good hands with Jewel! She is communicative, punctual, and a natural with interacting with the dogs - not giving them too much attention when it would make them overexcited, and being very kind and affectionate when the time is right. I certainly recommend her to you.”
About: I just graduated from Boston University and am now back home in NYC! I would love to be able to look after my neighborly cats and dogs and make sure they are taken care of while their loved ones are away. :) I take the time to learn each pet’s quirks, and comfort spots before day one, and I send regular photo and video updates so you're never left wondering how things are going! I work remotely from home, so my schedule is genuinely flexible and pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m available anytime during the week, not just evenings or weekends, so I can adjust to your pet’s routine rather than the other way around. Whether it’s a midday walk, a feeding schedule, or checking in between meetings, I have the time and flexibility to cater to what your pet actually needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, safety and consistency come first. In your home, I follow your routines exactly, feeding times, medications, walk schedules, so your pet’s day stays as normal as possible while you’re away. If care happens at my place, I keep a calm, distraction-free space and give your pet my full attention rather than juggling other animals. I don’t have pets of my own, which means no territorial issues, no competing for food or attention, and no risk of picking up something from another animal. I’m comfortable using crates, baby gates, or leashes if that’s part of your pet’s routine, and I always check in with you before making any changes.
About: 5+ years of pet-sitting experience including dog walking/sitting and cat sitting. I have grown up with both dogs and cats and have experience with pets both old and young. I also have extensive experience in providing both oral and injectable medication for both cats and dogs. I’m a young professional who works full time remotely so I am able to visit either morning, evening, or night—if you request boarding I can also work from your house during the week to stay with your furry friend! Respect is key! I will make sure to keep your home as clean as you left it and I understand that I am a visitor in your home whose job focuses on caring for your pet.
“Kaylee is amazing. Our 1 year old pitbull loved her from the first minute. She is truly a "dog person". Our dog Cannoli had surgery earlier in the week. Kaylee followed all our instructions with medication and sent videos. We could see our baby snuggled up with Kaylee sleeping. I will Absolutely be booking again.”
“Em watched Buster for a few days and we could tell he was is good hands while we were away. We appreciated the updates and pictures each day. We will definitely ask Em to watch Buster again!”
“Kier took care of my dog Kiwi in my apartment over an extended time and I was confident the entire time that Kiwi was in good and extremely loving hands. Kier always sent lengthy updates and I can tell went the extra mile to make sure Kiwi was happy and taken care of. I won’t hesitate to book with him again.”
“I had to take a last minute business trip and Chase kindly accepted my request to puppy sit on short notice. While I was away, Chase sent me lots of photos of my fur baby and kept me up to date on how things were going, which put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Chase again next time I have to go away.”
About: I’ve worked as a pet sitter/ walker for 3 years. In those 3 years, every single one of my clients were treated with love, respect, and honesty. I send pictures and videos with every walk, and I take pride knowing that you can be comfortable that your pet is being taken care of while you can’t be there with them. I’m currently working a basic 9-5 schedule on week days and am available all day and night on Saturday, and Sunday, so I would be perfect for anyone working in the food service industry! I’m very in tune with your pet’s body language and can sense if they’re feeling uncomfortable. I listen to every client’s personal requirements for their pets, and give each and every animal my undivided attention.

Linda is the best! She stayed overnight with our 6 year old cat Biscuit for 10 days and followed all of our instructions to a T. She sent amazing photos the whole time and you could see Biscuit was really thriving and having a great time. Very responsive, thoughtful, and responsible. Would definitely book her again!
Katie was the best sitter I could have ever asked for. Extremely attentive to my kitten, communicative while I was traveling and took incredible care of Rupert. She sent daily videos, photos and updates. I cannot express how amazing she was, very thankful to have found her!
As always, Stephen was an amazing sitter for Una and for the house while we were away. He was communicative, responsive, and sent lots of cute pics to help us not miss our little Una too much. Stephen’s the best there is, and we’re always so grateful for his kind, thoughtful approach. We’ll definitely rebook in the future!
Five stars all around! Madison was lovely to work with, they were thoughtful, incredibly friendly, and proactive with communication. They took amazing care of not only Sabzi, but our apartment as well--my husband and I were grateful to come back home from our travels to a happy, relaxed pup. Would absolutely book Madison again in a heartbeat. TYSM :)
Shweta was amazing!! She house sat for my dog for the weekend, and I came home to a spotless apartment and, most importantly, a very happy dog. She took him on plenty of walks, sent me lots of pictures and updates, and was super communicative the entire time I was away. She also helped take care of my turtles and made sure they were fed, which I really appreciated. It was clear she took great care of everyone and the apartment while I was gone. I would absolutely love to use shweta again!!!
Vanessa was great with my dog, Penny! She was very communicative during the whole day she spent housesitting and arranged a meet and greet beforehand to get all the necessary instructions on Penny’s care. She also left my apartment very clean and organized. I would definitely book with her again.
Nellie was not only amazing with our pup, but she was also so personable with us! From the start, she communicated really well, asked thoughtful questions about our pup’s needs, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving her in Nellie’s care. It looks like our girl may have found another bestie! 🥰🐶 Thank you so much, Nellie! We truly appreciate you and will absolutely be reaching out again! ❤️
I get super nervous & am very very particular with who I let into my home to care for Zeus because of a couple of previous bad experiences. From the start, I could tell Samantha was going to be amazing. And she was INCREDIBLE. She was communicative, followed alllll of my neurotic instructions, left my space in pristine condition, and really went above & beyond. I actually think my dog might have a crush on her so I cannot recommend Samantha enough. Part of me wants to gatekeeper bc she was that good, but everybody deserves to have peace of mind when they have somebody caring for their fur baby and Samantha provided that and more. Thank you SO much 🥹
Alexa was absolutely wonderful for our pup Warbler! We had a last min trip that she helped us out on, which coincided with a bit of a tummy upset for Warbler and she handled his specialized diet and kept a close eye on him for us. We felt completely safe with him under her care. Warbler loved getting to spend the weekend with her and she took great care of our apartment as well. She was very communicative and gave us lots of great updates! We will definitely book with her again!
Savanna is one of the sweetest pet sitters I have ever had. She is so patient and sweet with both my pups, even my rescue who is very timid. It's so valuable to have someone you trust. Whenever Savannah is sitting, I never worry about them because I know they are in good hands. She is always on time and keeps me informed on the sit. I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for a loving pet sitter.
Tenzin is absolutely amazing - a hero and a lifesaver, truly can't say enough good things. She took care of two high-needs dogs (one is a a senior dog with multiple medical issues, the other has severe separation anxiety) while I was out of the country for a week. The older dog developed new symptoms just a few days before I left, and I almost canceled the trip, but Tenzin's experience and competence made me feel secure enough to go, and she kept up a constant flow of information and photos, so I knew the pups were well and happy!
