“Nicole provided exceptional care for our dog during our week out of town. She was our first Rover hire, and we have no complaints, just appreciation! Our dog Lucy has a lot of anxiety about new experiences and people, but she loved Nicole! We definitely will book Nicole again in the future.”


“David did an outstanding job watching our dog, Trixie. He walked her often during the day, and had her out early in the morning and well into the evening. He came to our home the day before his scheduled time to meet with us, and to see the dog. He wanted Trixie to see us together with him, so she would be comfortable knowing that he was an accepted part of our pet family. He left our home in perfect condition when we came back from a brief vacation. David is a very nice person and he is well suited with pets. I would have David back in the future when his services are again needed. Roseann and Mike b”


“Yhakerra took excellent care of our Bailey over the weekend. She kept us updated so we had one less thing to worry about while attending our son’s wedding. Will definitely be in contact for any future needs.”


“Nicole watched our cats for our wedding and because of it we had nothing to worry about on our special day. Five stars does not cut it when it comes to how incredible Nicole is!”


“Jill loves what she does, and it shows. My pups absolutely loved her, and after moving cross country and having no support it was so incredible to have someone I knew would look after my 3 dogs!”

About: I am a 31 year old healthcare professional who also absolutely LOVES animals. I have cared for humans my whole life in healthcare and always wanted to care for animals as well! Caring is in my nature and something I am very passionate about. My love for animals runs deep and I understand the importance of making sure your furbabies are well cared for when you can't be there. I promise to be just excited as your furbabies to go for walks, or as calm as needed to provide your potentially anxious furbaby with comfort when you're gone. I have cared for my pets at home for 10+ years and know how important it is to keep them on a routine/ schedule. I am very reliable and fully dedicated to caring for your furbabies- I will take the time to hangout and play with your furbabies, take them on long walks, provide them with their food to keep them on schedule, clean up any messes they may make, and care for them as if they were my own. I will always be sure to communicate openly with you to ensure your furbabies are best cared for and hopefully be able to ease some of the worries associated with leaving your furbabies. I have a flexible work schedule & would love to spend time with your fur baby when you can’t. Every week looks different for me, but I’m happy to work with clients so we can optimize the care given to your fur baby. Safety is most important. Your fur babies safety and well being are top priority. I will always ensure they are well cared for and paid close attention to.

“Anastasia never fails us. She is super with our dogs and loves to watch them. Our pups and house are left in tip top shape when we arrive home. There are little extras she does that blows us away. She is our go-to for pet care these days.”


“Lydia took great care of my dog, Fern, for 5 days when I went on a vacation. Because I knew Fern was in good hands I was able to relax and enjoy my time away. Lydia is professional, friendly, reliable, and a true dog lover! I will definitely be using her services again and again.”


About: I'm Jonathan (though I mainly go by Jack). For years, I've been providing top-quality pet care in the New York area. I put in the time to get to know your pet's unique needs. I take my responsibility to care for your animal very seriously and will do whatever it takes to help them (and you!) feel safe and happy. Trust me to be there for your beloved pet when you can't be! My schedule is currently very flexible. I'm available for daytime drop-ins, walks, feeding, etc. for dogs and cats. Very open for overnight stays, though I may need to go visit other clients. I can't take pets at my home, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to care for your pet at yours. I do a quick "get to know you" session before agreeing to a new client, so that I can meet you and your animal, get acquainted with your home, ask important questions about your and your pet's needs, and make sure that I understand exactly how to give your pet the highest level of care!

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and guided by two veterinarians—my parents! I’ve spent years caring for small animals and even big animals on my neighbors farm in Virginia. I often help my parents foster animals at home too. From daily care to special needs, I’ve learned how to give pets the love, attention, and understanding they deserve. I work 5 days a week but have evening availability to pet sit at my clients homes and have my weekends available to give the care your pet deserves! I treat my pets like my kids. I love and care for them, and teach and guide them to respect my space wherever we are!

About: I am a former animal care specialist in Upstate NY called Pet N’ Play Luxury Resort. I supported cats and dogs for overnight stay at our daycare as well as the veterinary hospital next door (Middlehope Hospital)! I worked with animals for playtime, feeding, laundry, cleanup, walks, and maintained their health and wellness report cards everyday. I have supported puppies at least 4 months old, blind, deaf, and senior dogs. I have open availability! Also, I just graduated and with my car I’m able to meet you wherever you need! Please feel free to contact me if you have further questions :) I’m not able to bring pets to my residence, however I’m currently offering dog walking and dog sitting! I love to spend time with dogs through use of toys or companionship, walks, talking to them, petting, being by their side, or inviting them to sit with me!

Jonathan has looked after our dog, Monty, on numerous occasions, and each time he has proven to be incredibly responsible and loving.

It's clear Monty feels the same way, as he always looks forward to their time together and greets Jonathan with genuine affection. Any pet would be lucky to have Jonathan's care!”

Tasnia A.
“Tasnia is a wonderful pet owner and former animal care specialist. I believe that her experience with raising pet fish for several years, and caring for dogs and cats at an overnight daycare and veterinary hospital demonstrate that she is educated and dedicated to providing high quality care to animals and their parents. Tasnia is an awesome human being because she’s highly communicative, bubbly, patient, and hardworking. I consider her one of my closest friends and I trust her. I don’t have any pets but if i did, i'd trust her to bring the same amount of love and care that she has always brought to me and her closet friends. I know that she takes her work very seriously and creates a bright, welcoming, loving space in the environment that is unlike any other.”
