House Sitting in Gramercy, Manhattan, NY

“Catherine is amazing with our shy kitty! She’s looked after our cat anytime we’ve gone out of town for the last two years and we always come home to a very relaxed cat and clean home. Catherine is super responsive and responsible. From the photo updates Catherine sends it’s clear out cat loves spending time with her!”

About: I have been a very big dog person since my family got a Goldendoodle in February 2010 when I was in 7th grade. I trained him, fed him, played with him, and walked him everyday. The peak of our walking came during covid when I was living and working from my parents' house in NJ, and we would go for 60 minute walks during my lunch hours. Now living in Gramercy Park in the city, I take care and walk my friends' and cousins' dogs in Manhattan when they are out of town. This includes going to their apartment to walk the dogs and sometimes bringing the dog to my apartment for overnight stays. I am currently working full-time and fully remote in Gramercy Park. I am available to walk dogs before work, after work, as well as during the work day, as I have a very flexible schedule. I can also board / house sit while working remotely. I have bowls for food and water as well as a few spare dog toys. I live in a 5th floor walk-up, I have dog sat at my apartment for my friends' and cousins' dogs in the past,

“Sophia is great! She watched our dog while we were gone for 10 days for our wedding. We had such peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of and safe at home.”

“Melissa took phenomenal care of my boy Rico. She had great and quick communication, provided updates and asked a lot of questions on his routine. Will definitely use her again”

“Emily helped us last minute when we needed an overnight sitter for our elderly beagle. She was prompt in all communication, initiated a visit to meet us beforehand, and was just genuinely kind. Emily took great care of our home and our dog. She texted us updates and let us know all was well at home. She administered some medication for our dog, which we greatly appreciated. We came home to a happy pup! Could not ask for more!”

“Mary is the best: responsible, responsive and really loves her job and my dog. She’s is a great communicator and keeps in constant contact with photos snd texts. Highly recommended.”

Caroline D.

“Peter was a delight to work with! He took wonderful care of our dog Maeve at our home while we were away for two weeks, even taking her on fun excursions to the dog park and nearby hiking trails. He reliably administered prescribed medication for a continuing skin infection on Maeve’s leg so that it was well healed by the time we got back. We felt very comfortable communicating with him, and really appreciated his prompt replies and regular updates. Thank you so much, Peter!”

Tasneem Y.

“Can’t recommend Afsar enough! This is the first time I’ve been away without a single worry about my pet because of his stellar communication. Penny was well taken care of & i can tell she felt safe with Afsar immediately when meeting, photo & upon my return I wish i could give him 6 stars!”

“Caroline was excellent. She communicated great and took care of our place. Our dog got lots of attention. We would definitely highly recommend her.”

“Haru had a great time with Celeste for 2 weeks. I felt very comfortable and at ease with her looking after him while I was away. She provided consistent updates and took amazing care of him.”

“Alina was an amazing house sitter! She took such great care of our dog, Bogey, and kept us updated the whole time. We came home to a happy pup and a spotless house. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“DP was an absolutely wonderful caretaker for our Labrador Truman. He is reliable, responsive, thoughtful and goes above and beyond to make pet sitting with him an excellent experience. We will definitely hire DP again!”

Emily C.

“Ben is awesome. I needed someone to sit last minute and was so relieved when he said he could, because my dog (who has separation anxiety) is comfortable with him. I am also very comfortable with him in my home.”

Hadley I.

“Shannon was great! She kept Ralphie entertained and dealt with his zoomies (lol)!! He seemed very happy with her :) She kept my apartment super clean and was very respectful. She was also flexible and understanding with timing due to the inclement weather. Would definitely love to work with Shannon again!!”

Leah A.

“My dog Lilly loved Yaisa right from the start! Yaisa knew just how to approach her to make a connection. I could tell that Lilly trusted her right away and Yaisa has such a wonderful combination of warmth and clarity so that Lilly felt safe and taken care of. Yaisa was also easy to communicate with and followed up with pictures and details of her time with Lilly. I highly recommend her!”

Diane G.

“I was an anxious dog mom leaving my little shih tzu in the care of another person after many years of not… but now that I’ve met Manny, my anxiety has subsided! Manny stayed overnight to watch my little Misty while I was away on business. I returned to a happy and relaxed Misty (and my apartment was tidy as ever, like I left it. Manny is a great house guest). Manny kept me up to date with photos and updates while I was away— great with communication. An all star sitter indeed!”

Alicia C.

“i don’t have the adequate words to express how amazing Sophie was to our girl Wynter. Wynter had a bad GI issue and also fell and couldn’t get up during Sophie’s stay. Sophie was highly communicative, caring and helped get her what she needed, working with friends and neighbors to do the right things for her and get her to the vet hospital for us. Then on top of that, she went way above and beyond to ensure our apartment was clean from the messes, washed and made our bed, cleaned everything spotless and wrote a lovely note with some pastries to help cheer us up. It allowed us to come home and fully care for our sick pup. Sophie was an absolute godsend.”

Amanda F.

“Rebecca was wonderful to my 2 senior Shiba Inus. She came to the house and pet-sit for 2 nights. Followed all the instructions and was able to give medication as instructed. Was responsive, friendly, professional, and clean. Pearl who tagged along was super sweet with calm energy. Would book with Rebecca again to help me watch my dogs.”

Vivian C.

“Lauren was amazing with Milo! He just moved to the city and is still pretty nervous to go on walks, but she took extra time to sit with him and make him comfortable before taking him out. She was attentive to Milo’s needs, responsive to my texts, and sent frequent updates and pictures. I would absolutely hire Lauren in a heartbeat to take care of Milo again. Highly recommend!!”

Nellie I.

“Marraya was an awesome sitter! She arrived right on time and was easy to communicate with throughout the process. Super friendly, responsible, and treated my pup so well -- will definitely use Marraya again soon!”
