“Julia is absolutely wonderful with our elderly cats. They instantly took a liking to her. We felt extremely comfortable with her the moment we met her. She is fantastic, polite, on time and overall a great person with a natural ability to take care of animals”


About: I have been an animal lover since I was a little girl. I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life and have experience with feeding, walking, and playing with fur babies of all ages. I am currently in my clinical year of PA school. Unfortunately, I don’t have a set schedule as every few weeks my rotation changes and I get a new schedule. However, I am usually free on weekends and am willing to get up early or stay up late any day of the week to care for your pets. I have a large fenced in yard. I also have 1 dog at home who is very friendly as well as two cats who are shy and are usually hiding, but don’t mind other animals.

“I could not be happier with how Marianna took care of my cat. Kunkcles was well taken care of while I was away. Marianna did everything I asked. I will definitely return to her in the future if she is available.”


“I booked Lindsay back to back weeks for drop-in visits. Lindsay was so great with all 3 of our dogs. They were so happy to see her. She was on time, walked, fed and played with them and sent the best pictures. I highly recommend Lindsay and will be using her again.”


About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the special bond between dogs and their owners, and I’m committed to providing your dog with the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime in the yard, or snuggle sessions on the couch, I focus on keeping your dog happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I tailor my care to meet each dog’s unique energy level and needs. From feeding routines to maintaining training consistency, I ensure your dog feels secure and comfortable in your absence. With me, your dog will enjoy the care and companionship they need, so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands! As a hairstylist with a flexible schedule, I have the perfect balance of availability and passion for animals to provide exceptional care for your pets. I offer pet sitting services right in the comfort of your home, ensuring your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. Whether you’re away for a short trip or a longer vacation, I can take care of your pet’s daily needs—feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, and of course, lots of love and attention. I understand how important it is for pets to stay in their own space, and I’ll keep their routine consistent to minimize stress. From checking in on them during the day to overnight stays, I can provide the care your pet needs while you’re away, all without them having to leave home!

About: I have many years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I grew up with 3 dogs and 2 cats, and I have 5 years of experience dealing with cats with Feline Diabetes. I have 4 cats that I love and care for every day, they are my whole world! I am available on nights, weekends, and holidays. In my clients home, I would get to know the animals first and make them feel comfortable with me, and make sure I listen carefully to the clients instructions on how to care for the pet(s).

About: My dad was a dog breeder so I have had extensive experience in delivery, first aid, and all age pet care! Being a veterinarian has always been my passion. I aim to own my own hospital that helps those who can’t afford to pay thousands in vet bills. I love animals and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I’m currently a full time student that works 2 jobs but I would work around my time to meet a time that works best for you! I would ask many question so I can get a clear idea on how your pet is cared for when at home. I wouldn’t want the pet to feel stressed in any way so I would mimic the care that you provide them! It will feel as if they never left home.

About: Hi, I’m Chelsea! With 15 years of experience caring for pets—including my own—I treat every furry friend like family. Whether you're out of town or just need a helping hand, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I recently transitioned out of the military and am finishing my degree, with plenty of free time in my schedule. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard and lots of space for your pups to play. I also have a separate room if they just need some space and quiet time


About: Hi, I’m a pet sitter in town for the summer! I only have space for one or two dogs until further notice! 🤗🐶🐱 Thank You for viewing my profile:) My schedule is totally free. Just let me know when you need care for your furry baby.❤️ I allow 24/7 drop off to accommodate traveling clients! We have 24 hour care. We are in Long Island but testing to see if we get booking in the Brooklyn area. If we see a demand we will move to a building we found on Park Place.

About: I have experience with puppies all the way up to senior dogs and I love every stage. I also have experience with small dogs up to extra large dogs. I currently have a small dog and an extra large dog at home so no challenge is to big for me. Friends and coworkers often ask me to watch their animals because I am trustworthy and they know their pet will be safe and loved. I have a full time job, but can go home on lunch breaks if the distance of your home is not too far. Weekends are usually open for me to spend all day with your pets if needed. I would follow your routine when caring for your pets at your home. Animals feel safe when they are in their environment and living their routine so I would stick to your regular schedule as much as I can. I like to make sure I give them extra cuddle time so they don't miss you too much.

About: As a dog mom myself, I know how hard it can be finding the right caretaker for your fur babies. Luckily, I have both a passion for helping others AND spending time with pups! I can handle walking dogs of all sizes and managing all sorts of behavior. From pop in play time, snuggles and head pats, to long adventurous hikes, I’m here for your pups :) I have experience caring for my own fur babies, Bandit and Sage, as well as my past pups who I’ve cared for medically and emotionally until the very end in their sweet senior years. I am also a volunteer at various shelters and rescues across the island. I even run an Animal Rescue Club at the school I teach for! I am currently looking to add some weekly walking and drop in home clients to my schedule as a little side gig. I’m a full time teacher, so I’m looking to fill in some of my free time walking your pups! I’m available for weekly walks in the late afternoon, or weekend mornings. We can set up a weekly schedule, or just schedule a time when you may need me for a busy week! I have experience walking my very own pups and know how important safety on walks can be. We walk for a purpose: potty and/or exercise. While I’m my care, your pups have my full attention! In your home, I will follow your routine just as outlined to assure your fur baby is on schedule as if you were home :)

Not only does your pet feel comfortable, but Liz enjoys what she is doing and that’s what makes the difference! She has a special connection with annimals and they naturally gravitate to her with her kind, patient and friendly manners. She has a way of assuring your pet that although your owner is not there, they are safe. She is kind and compassionate….she takes time to carefully assess your pets needs.
