“Second time of many having Chris help us out with our puppy! We booked him for house sitting while we enjoyed a night off. We always have peace of mind having him puppy sit knowing he can handle all the energy our pup throws at him.”

“Schirn was incredible! She made sure to give updates and showed a lot of love for my girl. My flight was delayed and she extended an extra night for us. I truly am so grateful for someone caring for our dog this way!!”


“Mandel was great with our dog, incredibly respectful of our home, and very communicative! Will definitely look forward to him caring for our dog again!”

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs because every one of them has a different personality. Some want to run around and investigate every smell in the neighborhood, while others are happiest taking their time and enjoying the walk. I’m dependable, patient, and pay attention to details. If you leave instructions, I’ll follow them. If your dog has a routine, I’ll respect it. And if they have a favorite route, toy, or weird habit, I’ll probably notice that too. Friends and family would describe me as observant and easygoing. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know what makes each dog unique. My goal is simple: make sure your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind. Whether that’s a quick walk, playtime, or just some extra company during the day, I’m happy to help. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule right now, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and checkins throughout the week. I’m reliable, punctual, and make it a priority to show up when I say I will. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to keep their routines as normal as possible. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, feeding, or simply some company during the day, I’m happy to help. I believe good pet care starts with trust, communication, and attention to detail. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific instructions so they can feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in their home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for my own. I make safety a priority, keep owners updated when needed, and pay close attention to how pets are behaving so I can respond to their individual needs. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away.
“Kyla is an absolute gem! My fur babies absolutely love her and feel comfortable with her sitting. Excellent communication and photos and on top of my dogs meds. Kyla was respectful of my home as well!”

About: I am an animal lover living in Ridgewood. I grew up with cats my entire life. I also raised a basset hound named Sandor. I am kind and compassionate, willing to do overnights, drop-ins, and walks with your pets. Establishing trust with an animal and allowing them to adjust to your presence is one of the most important parts of the process. I have been caring for neighbors pets for years and walked dogs professionally in Manhattan. I’m available for walks and drop-ins during the weekdays also overnights if you’re going out of town for a week or more. I love pets. I will be able to drop in to give your fur baby some love when you’re at work or will stay overnight when you travel.
“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!”

“Maddieson was great! She has great energy and is very communicative. Kept me updated throughout and Belle was very happy and relaxed with her. Highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”

About: Fully insured for pet injuries, vet bills, and property damage. Animal shelter volunteer and former Accountant. I have a 9.5-year-old dog, so I understand the love, care, and attention your furry family member needs ❤️ I'm planning to do pet care full-time so your dog won't be alone for more than 3 hours. I only board 1 dog at a time outside of my own dog. My sister also lives with me so there's usually company around 🐾🐱🐶 I have a fenced backyard and my own dog to keep your pet happy and social. My home is clean, secure, and pet-safe to ensure a comfortable environment at all times
“Marisa was wonderful! She spent the weekend expertly caring for our 6 cats and dogs as if they were her own. Marisa was really good about communicating with us throughout the weekend, both in writing and through sharing pictures. Caring for 6 fur babies is a lot to begin with but she handled all of them so well. I would recommend and would love to work with Marisa again.”

“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.”

“Razan did a wonderful job sitting for our pups as well as our place! My pups can be particular and she adapted to them and their quirks well - she had great communication and gave lots of pics and updates!”

About: Fun fact: my profile picture is of me and Panda 🐼, the first fur baby I ever took care of for a family friend when I was 12! I am someone who has always grown up around animals including dogs, cats, turtles, and birds. I’ve always had a desire to take care of them, so much that at one point I wanted to go to veterinary school. Although I decided to switch to nursing, being able to take care of the adoring pets of others is something that I’d love to keep as my hobby. I’ll make sure to love your pet the same way I loved the ones I grew up with. All in all, I get to distress from school, and they can get all the cuddles and play in the world. It’s a win win! I’ll also make sure to keep you updated with pictures and videos so you can rest assured that they’ll be in good hands :) I am currently a full-time nursing student, with all of my classes being on Tuesdays. Besides that, I am available any other day of the week :) I also speak Spanish! When caring for your pet in your home, my top priorities are safety, respect, and consistency. I treat your space with the same care and cleanliness I’d expect in mine, and I make sure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment. I will carefully follow your instructions, stick to your pet’s routine, and pay close attention to their behavior and needs. Whether it’s feedings, litter box cleaning, going for a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m reliable, gentle, and always respectful of your home and your pet’s well-being. You can relax knowing they’re in trustworthy, experienced hands.

“Kier took amazing care of our pets. He went above and beyond for our sweet but high attention animals. We came home to a tired and happy high-energy dog, and a well brushed and cared-for chronically ill cat after two weeks away. Our dog is usually a basket case when we come home but this time, he was relaxed from getting attention and enough exercise from frequent walks and dog park visits.”


“Narges is a wonderful sitter! She gave our sensitive girl lots of cuddles, attention, and TLC while we were away for a long weekend. She came to our place for a meet and greet and walk in advance, followed everything to the letter, and left our apartment in great shape. We came home to a happy dog and there’s nothing else we could ask for! Highly recommend!”

“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 am an environmental student who loves animals! I’ve owned my dog, Srey for 10 years. I have also volunteered to care for a wide range of animals(mammals, amphibians) at a local environmental center, so I am familiar with basics like exercising animals and maintaining a safe and cleanly environment. I also have owned mice and fish. I am a college student who is currently back home in New York City for break, with pretty much full availability, excluding one week in July(8th-15th). I’d like to specialize in multiple dog walks per day, with drop-in availability as well. I intend to give full engagement with your animal(s) during the duration of drop-ins. I am enthusiastic about providing play/social time, especially for dogs that require constant attention, as I love clingy animals especially.
“Avary was unbelievably kind, thoughtful, and considerate when caring for my spoiled Pomeranian and staying at my apartment! She was transparent and provided frequent updates without being prompted and soothed this anxious dog mom’s nerves :) She was thorough in following instructions and went above and beyond on her last day taking care of my dog and apartment. Gem of a human and I’m beyond grateful to have picked Avary as our sitter!”

Isabel did a very nice job with my dog Onyx. She was with him for two days and one night. She followed every instruction I gave, and kept in touch with me the whole time. She also kept the house very tidy as well. The cherry on top was the fact that she left her own little note to me and I really appreciated that. Would definitely book her again.

Charlie was fantastic. I needed a last minute pet sitter and am so glad I found him. He had great communication, fast response time, and my dog loved him and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was being well cared for. I've used Rover before and it has been an up and down experience due to people initially agreeing and then not responding or cancelling days later. I'm really happy to have found Charlie and can't tell you how much I appreciated his quick and reliable communication.

Vanessa did an absolute amazing job staying with Onyx. She was with him for two days and a night and did everything that I asked her to do the exact way I asked her to. She kept in touch with me the whole time and dealt with my paranoia as I never left him before.. She left the house, nice and clean and took out the garbage. I will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Vanessa.

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.

Nouni took great care of my two pups at our home while we were away. She was very responsive to our texts and had no issues administering my boy Lino’s daily eye medication. They enjoyed their walks, and even though there was snow everywhere, they were walked daily, fed properly, and had a great time with her👏🏽 Definitely recommend her!
