“Great experience with Meryn and our doggy. On time and very good communication setting up our walks. I would recommend her walking services!”
2. Anna M.
“Anna did a great job walking our dog while we were away on vacation. Despite the snow and freezing temperatures, she walked her for the full 30 minutes twice a day every day. She was very flexible when I asked her to pick the dog up at a different location and communicated a bunch of times to update me on how things were going. I highly recommend using Anna.”

I will work to create the best environment based on what will make you and your pet most comfortable!
4. Tina Y.
“I have known Tina for about 20 years now and she is one of the most living, reliable and compassionate people I know. Anyone would be lucky to have her as a dog caregiver. She worked for a non profit animal shelter for several years and has also dog sat for me (when my dog was still alive) in the past. Her experience and personality make her more than qualified to be a dog caregiver. I would wholeheartedly recommend Tina to anyone.”
5. Kloe P.
About: I am a member of Pet Sitters International. Before that, I volunteered with Courageous Cats for two years, helping care for shelter cats by cleaning their enclosures, changing their litter & water, and feeding them. I have a semi-flexible schedule. I am available all mornings and evenings, but I am generally unavailable during the afternoon (around 1-4) on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. However, I am available all day during holidays. I have a cat who's approaching ten years old. I am new to this app so I don't plan on boarding animals in my home, as it would probably be stressful for both our animals. However, when I volunteered for Courageous Cats, they had no physical location so cat enclosures would be set up at different pet stores across New Hyde Park and surrounding areas. I would travel to clean and maintain these enclosures during volunteering, so I can travel to your home to care for your animals.

10. Gabrielle O.
“Gabrielle was a great. She came on time and walked both of my dogs for 30 minutes. I loved that she sent photos and distance details. My dogs seemed happy and tired after their walk. I will definitely be using her on a weekly basis.”
11. Serena Y.
“Serena is a caring and gentle person. If you get a chance to meet her I'm sure you'd feel the same way. Serena loves dogs and have been taking care of dogs for a while now. She often pet sits for owners of friends and family on her own time and loves doing so. Don't leave your pets to someone who's just looking for a job, look for someone who cares.”
12. Julia C.
“Excellent!”
13. Lindsey P.
“She has worked with me and my dogs! I am a dog walker for 4 years for over 15 dogs and Lindsey has helped me with many of my clients. They include labs, pit bulls, boxers, German Shepards and much more. She is strong, responsible, reliable, aware and great with animals. She genuinely loves them and they love her!”
14. Kristiana B.
“Kristiana is the only person I trust with my dogs. She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and my dogs love her. She has worked with my family for nearly 10 years, with both rescue and non-rescue dogs. She has watched them as puppies and as older dogs. Over the years Kristiana has provided day time services, walking and checking in on our dogs while we are at work, as well as longer term services in which she took care of our dogs over the span of several, multiple-day vacations. Both of my dogs have required special medical attention, including administration of oral medications and special baths— Kristiana has managed those needs exceptionally well. I highly recommend Kristiana for your dog watching needs!”
15. Brooke L.
“Brooke is an extremely consiencious, polite, and trustworthy girl. She has walked and taken care of our dogs for several years. She loves animals and animals seem to love her. She can be fully trusted to show up on time and walk your dogs when she has agreed to do so. I would not hesitate to hire her to walk your dogs for you.”

She has organized playtime with my dog and my sisters so they get some supervised play them and then spends extra time with him so he’s not alone while I’m at work. I trust her 100% with my dog!!!!”
