“We have booked Sandy for so many times and always know that she will take good care of our dog! Especially this time, we had to book with a different sitter since she was out of town for the first a few days. However, the situation with the original sitter didn’t go well and we reached out to Sandy for help! She didn’t even hesitate to agree to take care of our dog as soon as she got back to new york. We can’t say thank you enough to take care of our dog and give her a relaxed time after all the dramas happened with the original sitter!”
“Olivia was absolutely amazing with our dog Lacey while we were away for a few days. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt confident that Lacey was in caring, capable hands. Olivia clearly has a genuine love for animals—she sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos, and it was obvious that Lacey felt comfortable and happy with her. Communication was clear and consistent, and we never once had to worry. It’s such a comfort knowing that when we can’t be with our pets, there are incredible people like Olivia who care for them like their own. Truly a five-star experience—we’re so grateful!”
“"Jenny exceeded all my expectations! She kept me updated with photos and videos, ensured my dog's routine was maintained, and even gave extra TLC. Thank you, Jenny, for giving me peace of mind while I was away! Five stars isn't enough – I'd give her ten stars if I could!"”
“Wenxu and her husband are awesome sitters. They are very communicative, sent a lot of good pictures, flexible, and created a great environment for our dog. Would 100% recommend them!”
“Katsumi was amazing! Felt really comfortable leaving Simba with her, she took great care of him, sent a lot of pictures daily and kept us updated on everything! Would definitely recommend.”
About: I've had dogs ever since I was little. I grew up with animals my whole life. I have a cat and a bunny and I have a two year old golden retriever. I know its hard leaving your furry friend at home and I want to help you with knowing that your furry animal is ok. I work part-time on the weekdays, but I'm free on the weekends to walk your dog, play and take care of your dog for you. I have a friendly 8-month-old dog. I give my dog walks everyday, and play with him. I will Give your dog the care and attention they need. And give them walks.
“Dilania is absolutely wonderful! She took care of our dog as if he were her own. Our pup was instantly comfortable and at home with her and she took excellent care of him. I highly recommended her!”
“Great experience for Millie. She usually gets nervous starting at new places but by the time I went to pick her up I could tell she was incredibly comfortable and cared for. Thanks Jaun!”
“Lisa has been great with Kona. She is soo loving and caring. Kona always has a great time with her dog Gracie. She sends many photos through the day. I always feel at ease when she looks after Kona while we are away for a few days.”
“Chengjie took great care of our dog Izzie. She didn't hesitate to ask questions of Izzie's preferences/quirks so I could tell she really cared about Izzie's comfort. She also made sure to send us updates and pictures/videos throughout her stay there which we enjoyed and appreciated. Will hire again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, and it’s something that has always come naturally to me. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets, and I love being that reliable person they can count on. Each pet has their own personality, and I really enjoy figuring out what makes them feel happy and comfortable — whether it’s a puppy who needs extra playtime or a senior dog who just wants calm companionship. Alongside my pet care experience, I’m CPR-certified for animals and also work as an EMT (for humans, though!), which has given me strong skills in responsibility, patience, and staying calm in any situation. I bring that same level of care and attentiveness to every pet I look after, making sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family while their people are away. I work part-time as an EMT and full days as a medical assistant on Mondays and Tuesdays (and some weekends), which leaves me with a flexible schedule the rest of the week. Spending time with pets is honestly a perfect balance to my medical work — it feels like a little getaway, and I’ve really missed being around animals. Caring for pets lets me combine something I love with helping out families who need reliable support. I believe pets are happiest in their own familiar space, so I prefer to care for them in their home where they feel most comfortable. I follow each family’s routines closely — walks, meals, medication, and beyond to make sure pets feel safe and secure. With my healthcare background and pet CPR certification, I bring an extra level of attentiveness and responsibility. My goal is to make your pets feel loved and cared for, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands!
“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”
“Amazing sitter and such a great influence and environment for my doggy! He loved every minute! Definitely would stick with her as a sitter. Appreciate the daily updates and attentiveness to everything going on.10/10 ⭐️”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Xuejiao did a wonderful job watching my cat. She sent daily videos of her playing with my cat. She came back looking very healthy and happy. Communication was smooth and there were no issues at all. I highly recommend Xuejiao for watching your pets!”
“Kris took care of our dog, Luna over February break. We found him wonderful. He was caring towards Luna and always made sure to send pictures and videos. Luna came back so happy!”
About: I am an experienced dog owner, having cared for my own senior dog post surgery. I’m great with administering medication and am always running around being playful with the animals I care for. I’m currently a hybrid worker where I can work from home some days! I am also available on weekends! Pet care is a part of my daily routine since I have my own dog. I have a fenced yard in my own home. I take my own dog out every couple hours or so when I can and give her two 30 min walks if I can.
“Marc was super communicative and kind - he shared lots of updates throughout along with pictures and videos! Primož had the best time and we’re excited we found him a friend in the neighborhood!”
“Amanda and Kevin were simply amazing! they're such a lovely couple, so communicative and genuinely nice people. we had lots of photo updates and the pups looked so happy and cozy. They were very well taken care of, received lots of love from them, it was their mini NYC vacation. If we lived here, we would have them watch our pups over and over again without any hesitation. We had very good experience with them, it felt like we had our dogs stay with family. Thank you Amanda and Kevin for everything!!!”
