About: I have three years of experience dog sitting and walking, along with personal experience caring for both cats and dogs of my own. I have also successfully trained my youngest cat to do tricks such as sit, stand, and “say hi.” Through my pet care experience, I’ve worked with animals of different ages, sizes, and needs, including senior dogs who required extra patience, careful feeding routines, and slower-paced walks. I am also comfortable handling larger dogs, as well as dogs who may need extra support on walks due to special needs, mobility challenges, anxiety, or age-related limitations. I always make sure to adjust my care to each pet’s comfort level, personality, and routine so they feel safe, supported, and well cared for. I am available Monday through Friday and some weekends! I update my calendar regularly so that the weekends I’m free will be up and easy for you to see, but of course, feel free to reach out if you need a sitter or walker in a pinch and I will always try my best to fit you in. 30-Minute Dog Sitting Drop-In: I stop by to make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and cared for with fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Here, is when I’d administer any oral medication (or extra aid based on requests) for your dogs. Every visit is tailored to each dog’s routine and personality making it an experience they won’t forget! 30-Minute Dog Walk: During our walk, I make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, sniffing time, and positive engagement while following their preferred pace and routine. I also provide fresh water if needed, reinforce good leash manners, and ensure they return home happy, safe, and content. 30-Minute Cat Sitting Drop-In: I provide your cat with fresh food and water, a tidy litter area, and the right mix of play, treats, or quiet companionship. From social butterflies to independent observers, I tailor each visit to their unique style and can administer oral medications or inhalers when needed.
“excellent service took very well care of my dog while i was away on vacation over the weekend checked on her on schedule and walked her and fed her every visit couldn't have asked for better care thank u”

About: I’ve raised my own dog since he was a puppy, so I know exactly what dogs need at every stage. From early morning walks to keeping them entertained and fed, it’s just part of my daily routine. I didn’t just own a dog I grew up with him. Your dog will get the same attention and care I give mine every single day. Dogs get a morning walk around 10–10:30am, then they’re free to relax in the living room or hang out in the fenced backyard. Once it cools down in the evening I take them out again around 6–7pm. During the day they have access to the backyard for potty breaks whenever they need it. Before bed there’s one last walk around 11–11:30pm so they’re settled for the night. I have a fenced backyard so dogs can roam and play safely without any worry. I own a friendly dog myself so your pup will have a buddy to hang out with. We’re in a house so there’s plenty of space to move around and get comfortable. Dogs are welcome on the furniture I want them to feel at home, not like they’re in a strange place.
“Jenna took my booking at the last minute and really helped me out! My kitty Peter who is often shy came out and played with her. Would definitely use her services again!”

“Noelle is truly the best!! this was our 2nd time booking her, we had her for multiple days being gone for over a week. our milo wouldn't come out for anyone that came besides her, she knew exactly what to do to make him feel safe and loved. there's no one else we would trust with our pets than her! thank you to Noelle for loving our cat and taking care of him”

“Abigail was excellent with our dog. She was always on time and made sure Hazel got lots of exercise and attention when she visited. She listened to our needs and made sure to follow everything we asked of her and kept Hazel's routines as close as to what she was already used to. Our dog loved her and we will def be using Abigail again.”

“Alexis was wonderful with my dog and cat. She met them a week before. My dog instantly got along with her. Alexis has a very kind and caring aura to her that my pets picked up on and were comfortable with her right away. My husband and I will be reaching out to her for any future trips.”

“Oleg was nothing short of incredible. My wife and I were traveling for our wedding and we hadn't used Rover before. Oleg put any nerves we had about leaving our pets alone at ease. He was communicative, caring, and you could tell he really enjoyed playing with the cats. He stayed later than required in all three visits and blew up our phones with pictures and videos. I highly recommend Oleg and would definitely book him again.”

“I’m truly grateful for the care Neve provided. We have two cats one is very old. Neve went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. A complete professional who displayed tremendous compassion to our cats. I can’t thank her enough.”

About: After working at PetSmart's PetsHotel and Grooming Salon, I’ve completed several courses focusing on behavior, stress cues, and the unique needs inherent to different dog breeds. I treat all pets like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe and happy. Message me for availability and I’ll let you know what I have available for that week or the week following because I’m currently working and in school my availability varies Your pets are safe and sound every moment they’re with me but I’m happy to do regular texts throughout our session if you need any updates on their well being
“Excellent experience with Lin. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats had everything they needed. Communicating with every visit with pictures and details, letting us know the exact situation, was very helpful to keep us reassured everything was fine.”

About: *DOGS MUST BE GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS AND CATS* (I have THREE CATS and A DOG!!) My times for daycare are 8 am - 6 pm ONLY! (Mon-Fri) if outside this range, I will discuss additional payment. I have had dogs since I was a child. I’ve always had a love and care for any animal no matter the breed or size. During college, I worked at a vet as a daycare kennel assistant where I gained knowledge on the care of dogs. I know how to walk dogs, bathe them, cut their nails, etc. I work from home so I’m able to look over your fur baby! My boyfriend helps me from time to time and will help me look after any animal I have. I do go to the gym every so often so your dog needs to be able to be by themselves at least 1 hour, either crate trained or is able to be out without scratching or destroying anything. I have a fenced yard and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I have a border collie mix and 3 cats in my house who are used to being around other dogs and mostly keep to themselves! If needed, my cats are able to be separated from your fur baby but I prefer friendly dogs!
“Nervana was wonderful! My dogs require medication 2x a day and she ensured they received everything they needed. The pictures she sent at each visit put my mind at rest. Thank you!!”

About: Hello fellow animal lovers. I am a Veterinary Technician with over 20 years of experience for caring for hundreds of dogs, cats, birds and any kind of animal you can think of. My husband Andres is also a vet tech with over 15 years of experience and he helps me take care of any of the pets I watch. I used to mainly watch dogs in my home but since Covid we had a baby and she is allergic to dogs so I can't board in my home anymore which makes me very sad. Hopefully my daughter will grow out of her allergies eventually because we really do miss having dogs in our home and she loves dogs too. So now I can only do drop in visits at your home for any type of pet. I am currently not working and am a stay at home Mom but my daughter is in school now so I can do drop ins during school hours and then after my husband comes home from work in the evenings. I have dedicated my life to caring for and helping all animals and I have loved every second of it. I have experience with every age, breed, species and medical problem. I have years of experience of caring for any illness, physical and behavioral problems and administering any medications or medical treatments necessary. I have had many dogs, cats and other small creatures of my own that i have loved and cared for over the years as well. I love taking dogs out to play and bringing them to the park or wherever they enjoy going to the most. I have a car and can travel to any part of Staten Island. Nothing makes me happier than spending time and playing with as many little fur babies as i can. You can set your mind at ease knowing that experienced, caring veterinary technicians are caring for your precious baby while you are away.

Abigail was excellent with our dog. She was always on time and made sure Hazel got lots of exercise and attention when she visited. She listened to our needs and made sure to follow everything we asked of her and kept Hazel's routines as close as to what she was already used to. Our dog loved her and we will def be using Abigail again.

As always Noelle and Victor went above and beyond for our pups. Sundae is very timid and warmed up to them right away, that’s how you know they’re great. And Chili was super excited to see them which is no surprise, they’re besties lol. Thank you guys so much!!

Excellent experience with Lin. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats had everything they needed. Communicating with every visit with pictures and details, letting us know the exact situation, was very helpful to keep us reassured everything was fine.

This is the second time Taylor has taken care of my 5 cats. She was great with them and they can sometimes be handful. One is on a special diet and others need to be monitored as they eat. She followed all instructions and sent great pictures. I would definitely trust her with my furbabies again.
Stacy was absolutely wonderful! She truly cared for my cats and spent quality time with them. Both of my cats warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot about her gentle and personable approach. She went above and beyond in making sure they were comfortable and happy. I could not recommend her more. highly recommend Stacy to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!

Sandra was simply amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well cared for while we were away. Not only was our kitty fed on time, but Sandra also made sure she got plenty of playtime and attention, keeping her routine just as if we were home. We felt completely at ease knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. We’ll definitely book Sandra again for our next trip!
