About: I owned a dog since I was 12 years old. I learned a lot about dog behavior and communication cues. I'm able to adapt to all kinds of energy levels and personalities. I enjoy dogs and being around them, having the unexpected moments of joy. I have a dog of my own and typically start my day around 9 am by spending time with him, either playing or interacting. I review client bookings, double-check any instructions provided, and ensure I have gone over them thoroughly. I carry a small notebook to jot down important details to remember for specific clients. During walks, I carefully observe the dog's behavior to understand them better. At the end of each walk, I report back to the owner, clean up the supplies, and prepare for the next walk. I believe all dogs should always be on leashes. I stay attentive to my surroundings and other dogs nearby to ensure the dog feels safe. I'm quick and easy to communicate with, making it simple for dog parents to check in during their dog's walk. After all, as a dog parent, you have the right to know what your dog is up to, or even just to ease the moments when you miss them—and that's perfectly fine too.

About: (PLEASE KEEP READING FOR LATENESS INFO AND PRICING). Hello, everyone! I am a college student who has more than 10 years of personal experience with a variety of dogs. I've raised and taken care of Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Dalmatians and Labradors in the past and currently own a 9 year old Labrador/Pitbull mix and 2 Rottweiles. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of dogs on my free time as I work out with my own. There's a big park with a dog run right next to me so your baby will always be taken care of and I also keep an AC in the living room for the hotter days. In addition to that, I have worked with dogs with separation anxiety and am very aware of the struggles dealing with that so I always make sure when I take a Rover booking, that the dog is never alone in the house. Furthermore, I have no issues sending pictures and videos of your baby as we all would like to know how our babies are doing when we are not with them. Thank you so much for taking a look at my services and feel free to book me up! FYI, I am very comfortable and very good with big and strong doggos :-). I take pleasure in giving your baby one on one time withNL NO OTHER DOGS at the same time as yours so that they can fully enjoy their time I go to school online so I am able to be with pets 24/7. I also make sure that pets do not stay alone ever while in my care. I do ask however, for clients to stick to their drop-off and pick-up times to respect my time as I respect theirs and their pets', and to avoid any late fees or extra charges. LATENESS: To accommodate for my time and services, this is the lateness , cancelation and time change policy: 3 days in advance for full refund and no additional charges for changes. OVERNIGHT BOARDING 1 DAY ONLY DOG MUST BE DROPPED OFF BY 10PM AND PICKED UP BY 8AM LATEST (I HAVE FLEXIBILITYIF NEEDED), LATE FEES WILL APPLY AFTER THAT OF $25 PER 15 MINUTE PERIOD, FOR UP TO 2 HOURS AND BEYOND THAT, DOGGY DAYCARE CHARGES WILL APPLY IF PICKED UP LATER THAN 2 HOURS ON TOP OF THE LATE FEE. DOGGY DAYCARE 1 DAY ONLY DOG MUST BE DROPPED OFF BY 10AM AND PICKED UP BY 8PM (I HAVE FLEXIBILITY IF NEEDED), LATE FEES WILL APPLY AT $25 PER 15 MINUTES OF LATENESS AND UP TO 2 HOURS.

THIS WILL ONLY BE REDUCED OR WAIVED WITH A PROPERLY DOCUMENTED, UNFORSEEABLE, UNAVOIDABLE EMERGENCY, AND ULTIMATELY ALSO AT MY DISCRETION. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. Though my dog is friendly, I have a dog cage where my dog sleeps and which separates my own from other owner's pets for safety.

“Nicole was so lovely and took amazing care of our three needy cats. She was communicative during her visits, sending many photos and clear descriptions of what happened during each visit. She was quick to let us know when one of them started throwing up and acted to help mitigate the issue. We felt very safe leaving them in her hands!”

About: My first childhood best friend was my dog Lilly. Since the age of five, when my family brought her home from the shelter, I’ve loved and cared for dogs. Within the twenty years of walking, feeding, cleaning, and sitting my own furry companions, I also have two years of professional experience. This summer, my brother died unexpectedly and I left my job at a social justice nonprofit. I’m looking to transition back to work in a role that I deeply care about and has provided immense joy. My schedule is currently most flexible in the mornings and afternoons during the week. I’d love to start my day by caring for your dog. As a dog walker and sitter, I can promise you’ll find me to be attentive, caring, and communicative. It’s important to me to follow the directions of my clients regarding their dogs, and maintain a comfortable and safe space for everyone.

“Sarah is great! There are not many sitters I would let watch Clover, but I totally trust Sarah to take good care of Clover when she watches her. Kind, generous, considerate, thorough, etc. I’m grateful! Totally recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all ages & multiple sizes since I was 14. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping pets company, I make sure they feel loved and safe. Family and friends have trusted me with their pets for years and I treat them all as if they were my own. I’m a student working a part time job but I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate afternoon and evening walks to fit your pups routine. Whether you need daily walks or check ins I’m willing to work with your needs. On weekends I have more flexibility so I’m able to spend more time with your pets and give them the love and care they need! When caring for pets in a client’s home I make sure I follow their daily routines so that they feel comfortable and safe. I provide fresh water, food(as instructed) take them on safe and enjoyable walks, and spend time playing or just keeping them company depending on what they enjoy most so pets don’t feel lonely while you’re away. My goal is to make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for just like they would be with you.

About: I grew up with countless animals, from horses to reptiles, and am a cat dad of two. I love connecting with animals and helping people with busy schedules make sure their pets are well cared for. I've pet-sat many times over the years for family, friends, and neighbors. Sometimes even administering medications to pets with health problems, like diabetes. I try to fit in pet care whenever I can. My schedule is flexible, and I know a lot of people need that when things pop up in their daily lives and they need someone last minute. I always maintain the upmost respect for pets and their parents. As a cat dad, I understand that we often view our pets as our own children. I take care of animals in the same way I would hope someone would take care of my own.

About: Hello! I'm so excited to get to know you and your pup :) I started my pet care experience in college where I worked as a dog runner, taking all kinds of dogs on 30-60 minute walks and runs, from 75+lb leash pullers to slow, tiny strollers. I have a terrier mix of my own, Mochi, who I love to cuddle with and spoil, and I'm looking forward to taking care of your pet as well! In recent years, I've been a trusted dog sitter for friends and dog-running clients. My own dog is anxious and very dog-reactive, so I know how much trust is needed for a sitter or walker. I will always do my best to ask all the essential questions and more upfront and learn the ins and outs of your dog's needs! I'm currently job searching, so have all the time in the world! My main schedule items are taking care of my own dog at home, who just needs his 3 walks a day. Slight preference for morning/early afternoon for dog walks and open any day of the week for housesitting! I'm a pet owner myself to an anxious, dog-reactive dog. This has taught me to be incredibly aware of my surroundings on walks, very tuned into pet behavior & stress signals, and since moving to New York, always keeping an eye out for random food/trash on the ground to avoid! When dogsitting, I abide closely by the instructions provided for both pet and house care.
