About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.

About: I’ve been a lifelong pet owner, with about ten years caring for my own dog, Bowie. Plus, I’ve regularly pet-sat and walked my cousins’ dogs whenever they’re on vacation. I’m really attentive and make sure every pet gets the personalized care they need. Since I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I have plenty of free time available, making it easy for me to dedicate consistent and attentive care to pets. My home is spacious and has a large fenced yard. Plus, I have a very sociable dog named Bowie. All of these things contribute to a comfortable, safe, and welcoming home for the pets that I have pet-sat.

Klainer took great care of our two fur babies while we went to some events in NYC for the day. This was our first time having both dogs watched together, as our youngest is only 6 months old. I never had to ask for updates because Klainer provided continuous ones, which really put our minds at ease during the day. They came back to us loved and tired, making our night super easy. If you’re from out of town like we were, I highly recommend trusting her with your fur baby! Very clean apartment, too.

Melanie was wonderful! She not only took great care of my puppy Boo, but she was also able to understand the cues Boo gives. Weather it was interpreting the "I want water" bark, or recognizing the doggie-ADD Boo has on walks that make her forget to go to the bathroom, Melanie got it!

About: Hi! I’m Amber, a veterinary technician with 5+ years of experience in emergency and specialty veterinary medicine.

My veterinary background allows me to recognize health concerns quickly and provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for every pet as if they were my own. Every morning I walk and feed my dog, if I have work, I go attend that and once I get home I will play/go to the park with them and my own and dinner would be served around 6-8pm I have a dog myself who I take on long walks and sometimes the park about 3-4 times a day. We like to play with puzzles and train throughout the days I’m home!

She was very caring and loving towards my doggie. She was able to provide a morning walk and a short afternoon walk which made my doggie very happy . She communicated with me throughout the day and send me pictures ! I also love how she was able to map out the area, time, and length when she took my dog out for a walk !! She is the best !

We had our first doggy daycare drop-off with Rosario and it was a great experience. Our 4-month-old Dachshund had a wonderful time and came home happy and tired. Rosario was professional, clearly experienced with puppies, and kept us updated throughout the day. Overall, a very positive experience for everyone—we’d definitely feel comfortable booking again.

About: I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love spending time with animals. My goal is always to make pets feel cared for, comfortable, and stress-free while giving owners confidence that they’re in good hands. I’m able to dedicate time for walks, playtime, check-ins, feeding schedules, and any special care instructions like medications or training reinforcement. I also make communication with owners a priority, so I regularly send updates and photos to keep everyone informed and comfortable. If caring for pets in my home, I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision, lots of interaction, and a structured routine for feeding, exercise, and rest. I’m mindful about introductions, safety, and making sure each pet feels secure and comfortable.

About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.
