House Sitting in Garden City

“Samantha was great! We had an unique petcare request and she was exceptionally accommodating. She sent us updates and photos and our little guy was well taken care of. We highly recommend her to other Rover-subs.”

“Lisa is a caring person who was perfect for watching our 18 year old blind dog Jerry. She was attentive and kind. Would highly recommend her!”

“I had such a great experience with Jacqueline! She took amazing care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was at my sister's wedding. Chloe looked so happy and comfortable with her, and it was clear she genuinely cared. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to watch their pet!”

“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Phaedra! This was our second time using Rover for our little Italian greyhound puppy. I was very nervous because I know he can be a bit much as he is still learning the basic commands but Phaedra just had such a good calming effect on him. I haven't seen anything like it. I can tell they bounded and when we got back she had great suggestions for us to try in order to improve Zuko's behavior. I am really very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you so so much for taking care of our puppy with so much love and attention!”

“Anna was awesome! Very communicative and my dogs (and rabbit) loved having her stay with them. I was out of the country and she made sure I was updated the whole time. I felt very comfortable and relaxed :) we will definitely be booking with Anna again!”

“Jayden is amazing - she is so responsible and was very loving to my dog. She kept in good communication while I was away - sent photos of my dog and let me know how he is eating and taking "care of business." I highly recommend Jayden and will most definitely ask her back agaiin.”

About: I truly care for each pet as if they were my own. I’m very patient, loving, and attentive to their routines and needs, making sure they feel safe and happy at all times. I also send regular updates and photos so you’re always at ease knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I currently work from 9 AM to 5 PM, but I’m flexible with my afternoons and evenings if a pet needs care or a walk. I’m also fully available on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, or in-home pet sitting. I’ll always make sure your pet’s needs fit naturally into my schedule so they get the attention and love they deserve. I live with a friendly dog from my housemates, so I’m used to giving love, attention, and regular walks. When caring for pets, I always follow their routine, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy.

About: I’ve had numerous cats, dogs, birds and a rabbit! I love animals and the unconditional love they give in return. I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your babies while you are gone and give you the piece of mind you are looking for. I’m retired and have plenty of time to play and check on your fur baby! I adore animals and will love yours as much as I love my own! Currently I am offering services in your home only as I have a high energy puppy in mine. If your dog also is high energy and wants/craves stimulation with a like minded pup, I’d be more than happy to see how they get along! My home has a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door, and my dogs go on numerous walks per day.

“Alec was amazing! Incredibly attentive and our dog Mabel absolutely loved him. Alec cared for Mabel for a little over a week and provided constant communication and pics so we knew she was being well cared for. I can not recommend Alec enough!”

“Sara was incredible with our dog and cat! She sent plenty of pictures while we were out of town.”

About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I have always had cats and grew up with a dog, and I have adopted formerly feral cats as well as orphaned kittens and puppies, and I have fostered special needs animals. I lived on a small farm starting from the age of 5, so I have experience with various types of animals and love them all. I have taken care of puppies and kittens as well as older pets. I've always been told that I'm great with animals and wanted to go into animal care from a young age. I started my own petsitting business in 2023 and have loved getting to know so many different animals. I recently moved to New York and am excited to get know even more pets here! I have plenty of time during the day to spend time with your animals and give them all the care they need. I have open availability most days. I always want my clients to have peace of mind while they're away and treat all pets like they're my own. I'm always careful to follow instructions on how to best care for the pets, and my priority is always to keep them safe and happy. I don't board animals in my home, since I have a formerly feral cat who is easily scared.

“Beverly was a godsend for me, full stop. My plans for taking care of my dog fell through at the last minute before the holidays and Beverly swooped right in for the rescue. She gave me updates throughout the week during the busiest time of the year and made sure my dog felt right at home without me there. Beverly went above and beyond what I expected of her and the apartment was left better than she found it. I’d recommend her to anyone and everyone in a heartbeat.”

“Hannah was a great pet and house sitter. Very communicative and responsible during her stay. She sent plenty of updates and photos and made sure our dog was well loved in our absence.”

About: HIGHLY EXPERIENCED WITH DOGS THAT HAVE BEHAVIORAL ISSUES!! Eager to work! :) I have grown up with, and helped care for, dogs my whole life. For the past 3 years I have been training my dog, currently with assistance from a trainer. He was fearful-reactive and is now an amazing service dog in training. I have been a volunteer at the world’s largest no-kill shelter for 2 years now. I have handled dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have worked with blind and senior dogs. I have run puppy play groups, as well as puppy mill, senior, and teen play groups. some behavioral challenges in dogs that I have worked with include: fearful; reactive; food and/or object possessive; stranger danger; seperation anxiety; dog vs dog aggression; strong leadership; mouthy; and more i’m sure i’m forgetting. I have taken several extensive dog training classes to improve my skill and knowledge. I was the first 16 year old to reach one of the most advanced dog levels. I am very well-versed in understanding dog body language. I have dealt with sick dogs as well as dogs with skin conditions. I have helped get the neighbors dog to eat, as well as go potty and play, and dog walked for several clients. I also have experience with cats from the shelter as i have taken advanced feline behavior classes. I am able to understand cat body language fairly well. I have worked with cats as well as kittens, and cat sat several times. I can care for, and clean up after, dogs and/or cats. I will always respect your pets boundaries. I am currently an undergrad with the goals of becoming a veterinarian! I will genuinely treat your fur babies as my own. My dedication and passion truly is to ALL animals. 🩷 I am a full time college student. I regularly update my calendar to show my availability. Make sure to check there! Can’t wait to hear from you :) I will make sure your pet has fresh food and water, as well as making sure there is nothing clearly dangerous left out that the pet could hurt themselves with or eat. I will ensure everything is as it was when I came, as well as closing and locking any doors I used. I will dispose of animal waste as instructed. On walks I have a steady balance and strong leash hold to ensure the dog stays with me. I may carry treats with me for minor training/intervention (if allowed and if the dog pulls or something like that). If your dog is scared of certain things or creatures I will take precautions to avoid anything triggering to the dog. Lastly, I will certainly make sure the pet(s) feel loved, happy, and relaxed.

“Cynthia watched my pup overnight and took such good care of him. I felt at ease knowing he was not alone and with someone who genuinely likes dogs (even old cranky ones like mine). Thank you so much Cynthia!!”

“Nicole is very attentive and loving with Maddie. I'll definitely use her again.”

“Oswald was so incredibly helpful to me and my dog, Bear! Since Bear has mobility challenges, I enrolled him in rehab for physical therapy. Not only did Oswald help me with the lifting and carrying of Bear, he even generously drove us to and from the rehab center. His time, care, and attention meant a lot to me and is deeply appreciated. Thank you so much!”
