House Sitting Hempstead

“We loved Anna! She kept us up to date throughout the stay on how our animals were doing and took such great extra care of our dog with epilepsy. We will definitely be using her again!!!”

Jacqueline R.

“Marissa did a fantastic job watching our dog on very short notice. Our dog is currently recovering from IVDD, has limited mobility and can be quite reactive and untrusting with strangers. Despite these major challenges, Marissa was incredibly patient, took amazing care of her and kept us reassured with regular updates throughout the day. We deeply appreciate her dedication and will absolutely book her again!”

“Lauren house-sat for us, and cared for my two dogs like they were her own. They warmed up to her immediately, she stuck to the schedule and instructions that I provided, and was communicative with updates and pictures. We would absolutely hire her again.”

“Cynthia is wonderful! She is trustworthy and caring and very communicative! I felt very safe knowing our three girls were in such loving hands!”

About: My name is Deshaun, a former tv meteorologist, and I love dogs. I am experienced with taking care of dogs through family and friends. Giving animals as much love as possible is my motto. Show them as much love and attention as possible and always be on alert with pets. Never leave peers on their own. Make sure that they are well fed. I’m currently in between jobs, so I have all the time in the world. I will dedicate a lot of time into taking care of my clients I treat my client’s home with top care. I will never bring strangers into their homes, keep everything clean and tidy and avoid rooms that are banned.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets and have been around dogs since I was about seven years old. I also spent time every week on my family's farm, where I became comfortable around many different animals, including dogs, cats, horses, cows, bunnies, turtles, chickens, and ducks. Throughout my life, I've cared for multiple dogs of my own and have also pet sat for friends and family. I'm comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining established routines, and reinforcing basic training such as sit, stay, come, leash manners, and house-training habits. Growing up around animals taught me to pay attention to their individual personalities and boundaries. I know that some dogs want to play immediately, while others need patience and time before they feel comfortable with someone new. I bring that same patience and attention to every pet I care for. I'll follow your instructions closely and do my best to keep your dog's routine consistent, safe, and enjoyable while you're away. My schedule is flexible, with my strongest availability from Sunday through Wednesday for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I'm also open to longer stays and recurring bookings during those days. Thursday and Friday availability may vary, but I can sometimes accommodate evening or overnight care if a later arrival works for your pet's routine. Weekend requests may also be possible depending on the dates and your pet's needs. Feel free to reach out with your schedule—I’m happy to see if we can find a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is to keep their environment and routine as familiar and consistent as possible. I follow the owner's instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, training, sleeping arrangements, and any household rules. I take time to learn each pet's personality, energy level, boundaries, and normal behavior rather than assuming every animal should be handled the same way. I'll reinforce the commands and routines you already use instead of introducing unnecessary changes while you're away. I also understand that trusting someone with your pet means trusting them with your home. I treat both with respect, keep the areas I use clean and organized, secure doors and entrances carefully, and communicate if anything unusual happens. During visits or overnight stays, I can provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing and can feel confident that they're safe, comfortable, and receiving attention.

“Sara was incredible with our dog and cat! She sent plenty of pictures while we were out of town.”

Andrew G.

“Jane was so amazing, caring and meticulous with caring for our 2 dogs (one of which is a senior dog). She sent us detailed updates, photos and videos which giving us peace of mind when we were away on vacation. She left our house cleaner than the way we left it. I am so happy we found a great caretaker for our pups after many failed attempts. Jane was our saving grace and we look forward to using her again! If you would like to hear more about our sit I'm happy to be a referral, she was that good!”

“Devon was exactly the person I needed to care for my fur granddog while I was away. She was professional friendly, caring and attentive. She took wonderful care of him and treated him as I would! Everything was in perfect order when I returned! I would highly recommend Devon! You’ll have peace of mind knowing your furbaby is in good hands! Thank you Devon!”

About: My partner Erick and I have spent our whole lives having and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, energetic dogs to the shy and skittish , and everything in between. We treat every pet like our own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. We both have school at the moment, but we have conflicting schedules so either one of us or we both are readily available for boarding, drop-in’s, walks and house sitting! We follow your pets’ routine closely. meals, walks, playtime, and cuddle breaks, so everything feels familiar and stress‑free for them. One of us is always checking in, whether it’s for extra potty breaks, fresh water, or just a little extra attention when they need it.

“Keoma truly is magic, I'm half-convinced I came back from vacation to a different cat. My previously touch-resistant cat is now a cuddle monster! Keoma did a wonderful job taking care of my princess, and the house was spotless and untouched. She even managed to do some houseplant care, and finally got the collar on my cat that we've been struggling to do for months! She truly is a rockstar.”

About: We are a family of dog lovers! My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and though we don’t have pets currently, our love of dogs keeps us pet sitting and dog walking around our neighborhood. We have 3 young children who absolutely adore dogs, and love taking responsibility in taking care of them when we are pet sitting. We have a lot of snuggles to give your pups, and lots of walks to take them on, too! I am a stay at home mom so our schedule is pretty flexible! We are up early, and outside often. Any timing should be fine for us to work around. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby. We can play fetch with your pup, give them lots of snuggles, and plenty of walks!

About: I grew up in a house with 3 dogs and have never known life with an empty house! I’ve been formally dog sitting for friends, family and clients since 2018 in my house on Long Island as well as in their apartments in Manhattan and Brooklyn. I was previously the assistant manager of a local dog day care and while some dogs do well in a boarding facility, I know how important it is for them to feel comfortable and stress free, and that can be in their home or mine! With over 20 repeat and regular clients who my relationship with them and their dogs spans across years, I have many referrals that can speak to my high level of care and love. I also am honored to have experience with senior aged dogs and those with medical conditions requiring medicine or special care and am happy and comfortable to provide it. Be prepared to receive a million picture and video updates from me of how we’re spending our days together so you don’t have to worry or wonder, and can enjoy your vacation as stress free as possible. Especially if you’re away during a holiday or even their birthday, we always celebrate with special treats, toys and activities so nothing is ever missed. When your pet is in my care, they become a member of my family and are treated as such! I work full time remotely from the comfort of my house, which allows me to spend all my time on the couch with the dogs I’m sitting for and take them to play in the backyard or for a walk whenever we want. I am able to accommodate and be flexible with bathroom and feeding schedules as necessary. I have a very large, fenced in backyard with grass and concrete that dogs are able to enjoy. I also have a doggy door if they are trained that they can access the backyard whenever they would like/need to potty (can also be locked shut!). I am happy to follow any specific care instructions no matter how unique or strange you might think they are, I’ve heard it all and love learning every dogs personality and quirks that make them who they are. The dogs I sit for are just like my own pets, they are welcome and encouraged to join me on furniture, to sleep in bed with me or can be crated if preferred and one is provided (although I certainly prefer cuddling with them if allowed!).

About: I have experience with dogs and cats. We’ve raised 2 cats and 1 dog in my childhood home and I know how to take care of them properly and lovingly! I’m working from home as a gap year medical student. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced yard and due to my free hours, I’m able to accommodate your loved ones and their schedules. I don’t have any pets or children in my house so it would be an ideal space for boarding and a quiet getaway from city life on Long Island I will make sure I have their food schedule down and I will take care of their litter boxes/take them out as needed. I will also take care of any allergies or additional concerns they may have
