About: 💠 Hello! I offer pet care for when you’re not able to be there. I am available for drop-in visits, pet sitting, pet daycare, and also pet walking (even for cats!). 🚙 I currently provide pet care services for most of the Nassau County area and some parts of Nassau-Queens border. I am also able to travel to Manhattan with added transportation coverage. I am local: Residents of NEW HYDE PARK receive special accommodations and rates. * Messages that are sent after hours on Rover will be responded to the following day. 🔹 I’m experienced with small breeds, or toy breeds, specifically Pomeranians, been around them all my life, including newborns and senior dogs who were raised starting as puppies. I also have some experience with French Bulldogs. 🔹 Experienced with docile cat breeds, in particular Persian, Himalayan, Ragdoll and other related cat breeds. 🔹 Have experience with Goldfish, Bettas and birds such as Budgies, so knowledgeable about care. 🐾 I’m intuitive and pay attention to picking up the different ways a dog or cat expresses nonverbal communication, they constantly give us cues. About Me: I own a color-point Persian cat who is 7 years old that I enjoy spoiling. I can speak Italian, enjoy gardening, art, sewing, yoga, tennis & pilates. I’m a fan of the original Twilight movie directed by Catherine Hardwicke. 🐾 I’m currently providing pet care for a King Charles Cavalier who has mobility issues and dietary restrictions, but he is such a big mush! I am also caring for a special needs 4 month old kitten who needs to be syringe-fed, given both topical & oral medication on schedule, along with helping her with using a litter box. In addition to assisting with care of a (palm-sized) rescue kitten who is less than one month old needing to be bottle fed every few hours, given antibiotic medication for her eyes and frequent cleaning with wet wipes, due to being too young to know how to use a litter box. I have found it to be extremely rewarding and willing to look after a few more furbabies within my local area. 🔹 I’m trustworthy and reliable, I would always practice good manners. Respectful of privacy when I’m in a client’s home. I make sure that when I’m with your pet, safety is an upmost priority.

“Chris has been a wonderful pet sitter for my newly adopted dog Max. Max has some issues from being rehomed a few times but has warmed up to him and adapted to this new environment very quickly.

Lauren & John Paul J.
“I can't say enough positive things about John and Lauren's dog sitting service! As a pet owner who values top-notch care for my furry family members, I am thrilled to have found such a reliable and experienced team. Lauren and John's combined over 30 years of experience in caring for dogs is truly evident in the exceptional service they provide. Their love for animals is genuine, and it shines through in every interaction with our beloved pets. Knowing that they have cared for their own dogs, as well as those of family and friends, for so many years gives me complete peace of mind when entrusting them with my own furry companions. Their home is like a home away from home for our dogs, making it so much easier to leave them in their capable hands. They provide regular updates, including photos and texts, so I always know how my pets are doing. It's a small gesture that makes a world of difference when you're away from your four-legged family members.”
