Pet Sitting Grand Central

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and have been caring for animals for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with kittens, adult pets, and senior or medically complex animals, including providing around-the-clock hospice care for my own beloved cat after his ataxia diagnosis. I currently share my home with Leon, my one-year-old cat, and Chicken, my 26+ year-old African Grey parrot—both rescues (Chicken was found abandoned and taken in) and very loved. I love caring for pets—cats, dogs, and birds of all types and sizes—and I’m happy to welcome other small animals too, just let me know! I treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work from home and my schedule is flexible. My goal is always to schedule any services based on the needs of you and your pet(s). I will always follow any instructions on how you prefer your pet to be cared for. Otherwise, I will always care for them in the safest and healthiest way available. The same way I care for my own pets. Leon is an indoor kitty with unlimited access to fresh air and sunshine from his lounging cots attached to our large windows. He loves his wet food, and his meals are on a “flexible” schedule, and no all day grazing. He receives lots of playtime with his humans and more independently. Of course, he gets brushed, not always with a happy purr, but he gets as much as he will tolerate.

“Heather loves the dogs as much as the dogs love her, definitely recommend her!”

“I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter than Mindy! She went over and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. I booked relatively last minute and had a few late adjustments to my travel plans but Mindy was very understanding and flexible. She provided plenty of updates during her visits and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat’s well-being. I had a great experience with Mindy and would absolutely recommend her to others!”

“Bertha did an amazing job taking care of my puppy, Ammi! She was reliable, kind, and kept me updated with photos and messages. Ammi looked so happy and well cared for when I got back. I highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”

About: I adopted my first own dog in 2012 and cared for him until he passed of old age in 2024. He was a half English half American bulldog. Now I have a French bulldog, an 8‑year‑old cat and a guinea pig. I understand dog and cat behavior and routines really well. Friends and family have trusted me for years to feed, walk, and give meds to their pets and I treat every pet like part of my family. I understand the true purpose of walks for dogs and always let them take their time sniffing and exploring so they feel mentally stimulated and relaxed. I’m a full-time stay-at-home mom, so I’m home most of the day and available any time, any day. I’m used to juggling different feeding, walking, and playtime schedules, and your pet will get lots of attention and company throughout the day. I follow your feeding, walking, and crate routines so they feel safe and consistent. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with seniors and more nervous pets, and I always keep a close eye on them to make sure they’re comfortable and secure.

“Grateful Corey was available for a last minute pop-in when we both had to work late. He's reliable, and mostly importantly, the dogs love him.”

About: Since childhood, I’ve always had pets. My mom taught me to love and care for them, and to see them not just as animals but as part of the family. I’m a stay-at-home mom, but my child goes to daycare, so I have time to take care of and walk your pets. And I’m flexible I stay at home all day, so I can give your child my full attention—playing, cuddling, and doing everything they need to feel loved and not miss you too much while you’re away.

“The best!”

“Thank you Tasha for your thoughtful care of our sweet kitty boys. It's rare when I hear back from sitters that they were able to connect with them, given their wandering nature by heart.. your calm and sweet presence was definitely felt. We look forward to rebooking when needed. Thank you infinitely!!”

Lindsay S.

“Katharine has been a great Rover w my dog. She got her to eat even tho my dog is very picky to eat when we are not home so that to me means a lot and tells me my dog felt safe and secure with her in their visits. I will definitely book her again.”

P S.

“As always rachel was amazing!! She’s very communicative letting you know when she’s heading over, there, and what’s going on. Our cats had some incidents and she took care of them. She also spends time playing with them- one of our cats is more shy with strangers and she even got him out. We’re so grateful we found her as a sitter!!”

“Sorn did a great job looking after Marx while we were away! She sent plenty of photos and videos that were reassured us that he was well taken care of. Thank you Sorn!”
