About: Hi! I'm Janis—a college student on summer break, excited to meet your pet(s)! I’ve been caring for all kinds of animals since I was young—dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish—you name it! Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs— from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as large breeds like Pit Bulls, Samoyeds, and Labradors. I am open to making exceptions for some large breeds depending on their behavior and after a meet-and-greet. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I gained experience walking and handling anxious dogs. My experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant has given me strong familiarity with handling medications, special diets, and injury care. I’m highly attentive, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific care instructions to ensure your pet’s safety and well-being. I’m very responsive and make sure pet parents always feel connected by sending frequent photo and video updates. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and bond with them through the activities they enjoy most. I’m currently on summer break, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to spend most of the day with them, with exceptions for errands, but they will never be left alone, as I live with family. I provide at least 2–3 walks or potty breaks per day, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pet’s needs and routine. I also accept last-minute bookings whenever possible! I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication at all times. I live in a house with a fenced front yard, but your pet will always be supervised when outside. During walks, I try to avoid streets with a lot of traffic to help pets feel secure, especially in new environments. I always pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I live with my family, so pets will never be left alone if I had to run out, and I always communicate this clearly with owners ahead of time. I currently don’t have other pets in my Brooklyn home aside from fish, which allows me to give your pet my full attention. I can also follow instructions like crating or separating pets if needed.

“Lina did a wonderful job dropping in on my kitty. She followed all the instructions for my cat's complex feeding regimen. She is an excellent and prompt communicator. When I returned from my trip, my cat was much calmer than after previous trips. I am looking forward to working with Lina again. Thank you so much!”

“Okay, I have to rave about this sitter for a sec. My cat is usually pretty shy around new people, but she won him over almost immediately; no idea how, but I'm not complaining! She sent photo/video updates every day I was gone, which honestly made the trip so much more relaxing. Litter box clean, feeding on point, and she even picked up on him being a little mopey one day and gave him some extra snuggle time without me even asking. Also grabbed my package that was outside the door, which was such a nice bonus. I came home to a happy, chill cat and zero stress. 10/10, would book again in a heartbeat. If you need someone trustworthy and clearly obsessed with animals, this is your person!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since 15. I gained all of my experience that I have today through taking care of neighbors, friends, colleagues, and family’s pets. I am a loving, kind, caring, and patient person. I learned so much from caring for animals, that I adore them so much! Also additional, I have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I’m currently a college student, my classes are held online. Which gives me plenty of time to spend with the doggies. My weekends are busy but I can do mornings only. Because the weekends are the only days I have to finish my college work. I care for my clients pets like if they were my own. I make sure to make my clients pets feel as comfortable and safe as possible, like if they were in their own home. I love taking my time to get to know my clients pets because each pet has their own personality! I also make sure to follow any rules or meal plans that my clients leave for their pets.

“So lovely and our cat loves her!!”

About: I’ve taken care of many smaller breeds for the last 7 years. The walks are always at least 30 minutes long with a goal to give your puppy a chance to do their business and socialize under supervision. I am currently working full time in Coney Island area but I am available full time to come on weekends, holidays as well as most of summers. I have access to 4 parks in my neighborhood as well as the beach. I take my own dog out 6 timers per day at least 30min walks to do his business and socialize.

“Lynn was very responsible and thorough while taking care of our cats! They had a great time playing with her and warmed up to her quickly. Thanks, Lynn!”

About: I have had experiences with many pets, but mainly dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have had my first pet Rocky the shih tzu for nearly sixteen years! Now that Rocky is an older pup, I have assisted him in numerous ways, such as holding him up as he slowly goes on his walks (or walks around the house), spoon feeding him, keeping up with medication, and of course bathing him. I also have a second dog named Daisy, who is a yorkie-poodle mix. Daisy can get a bit anxious as she walks in the street, so I am very patient and used to furry friends who bark a lot as they go for their walks. I’m currently available all days of the week to walk and care for some new furry friends! Being that it is summer and school is out, I have a lot of free time on my hands. Throughout the year, I work in various public schools as a paraprofessional :) In the past, when I have brought new furry friends to my home, I put up a gate as a divider until I feel that the visiting pets feel comfortable around my two dogs. I feel comfortable administering medication, preparing food, changing diapers, and bathing pets of all sizes and breeds. I have also walked dogs as small as chihuahuas and as big as pit bulls for friends and family.

“As always, the kitties were super happy and well cared for! Barbara is great, my cats all used to be feral so they have trust issues, and they’ve warmed up to her so well. :)”

“I can’t recommend Jackey enough. She is truly wonderful, kind, and so thoughtful. She sent regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. She was always responsive and communicative. Most importantly, she was incredibly sweet and patient with my cat, who isn’t the easiest and is currently going through a lot of changes in his life. It was clear she really cared about his comfort and emotional well-being, not just the basics. I came home to a calm, well-cared-for cat, and that means everything to me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable animal person.”

“Kseniia is absolutely wonderful. We had a last minute booking for her to cat sit in our apartment. She was very responsive, helpful, and caring. We received regular, detailed updates and felt very comfortable with the care she was giving while we were away on our honeymoon. I would highly recommend Kseniia to anyone looking for trustworthy and highly qualified pet care. Thank you Kseniia for making our trip stress free!”

About: Hey! When it comes to loving animals and letting them chill, I’m your person. I’ve taken care of my neighbor, coworker, family and friends’ pets! I love them all and they’ll love my apartment. I cannot wait to take care of yours. I’m a professional writer working from home so I’m in my apt during the day and can spend time looking after your pet and giving them attention if they wish! I have the bay right across the street from my home so that’s where we’ll be walking! If the weather permits, we might even take a stroll to Manhattan Beach! I have a one bedroom apartment with an outdoor balcony and a high fence around it. There is lots of space indoors and out and no other pets live with me.

“Nina was great! She was so patient and caring to my kitties- Even one that is extremely shy and wary of strangers. She won him over in the end, and they looked great when I got back home from my trip.”

Aaisha P.

“Erika was wonderful with my two cats! They immediately took a liking to her and she sent me many pictures and seemed truly concerned for their well being. I would definitely rebook! Thank you Erika :)”

Stacey K.

“Keti was wonderful with my cat, I’ve never seen him so friendly with a stranger. He was the happiest I’ve ever seen him after coming back from a trip. She did a great job taking care of him and we couldn’t be happier.”

Danial S.

“Travis did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. He updated me with pictures and videos daily. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not have to worry. I will definitely use him again in the future!”

About: NOTE: I charge $60 as my flat fee for 6 hours of homestays. After that I charge an extra $5 for each hour per dog. (this is negotiable for repeat clients). I am usually unavailable Tues/Thurs evenings after 6pm. I also only do overnight stays for repeat clients. Hi! I've been around both dogs and cats my whole life and have been a primary caretaker of everything from puppies and kittens to senior pets to pets with special needs. My own two cats can attest that I'm ready and willing to do everything I can to give them a good life. I'm energetic and dependable, I'm also strong so your big dog won't get a leg up on me! You can rely on me to bathe, walk, feed, give medication, or even just some extra love to your pet! I'm also good with boundaries, (important for cats especially) and have worked with breeds from toy Morkie's to giant Shepards! I’m a freelancer, so my schedule changes often, but I am usually free except for Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Those are usually reserved. I only do walks within a 20 minute train ride, but will do sittings all over the city! (Note: I charge a 10% cancellation fee if cancelled within 24 hrs of service) I am respectful of all wishes when it comes to drop-in visits and your home, and keep to common areas, I'm also willing and in fact, encourage picture updates of your pet's care (and to reassure you if you have anxiety over leaving your pet with a stranger like I sometimes do). As for walks, there are no headphones or any other distractions to me when I walk your pet. I stay along well lit streets, and aware of your dogs needs at all times.

About: I've taken care of cats my whole life, at home, working for doggy daycares and Wag!. I have done 60+ home visits and have cared for cats and dogs with all types of personalities. Im currently working from home part time and have adequate space in my day for walks, and sits. Also open for cat and dog boarding. Always watching the pets and what they are doing. Making sure they are not making a mess and clean if they do. Change food and water and clean the litter box

“Chelsie is adored by Duke. She is attentive, friendly, playful and hands on teaching him on every visit. I appreciate her approach and advice to help make Duke feel his best when she is there. She is a huge help, so thankful we found Duke a great friend.”
