“Carly and Kendric did an amazing job at dropping in on Oreo while we were gone. They were very proactive at setting up a meet and greet befordhand. They were flexible with last minute meal changes when Oreo got into something she shouldn't have before we left for our trip. They even washed her used food dishes, which we didn't ask them to do!”
“Natalie has been checking in on my pup for the past few months and has been absolutely amazing! I haven’t always had the best luck on here, but she has proven herself to be extremely professional and trustworthy! If you’re looking for someone who will truly take care of and loves your pet, Natalie is the right choice!”
“Maja was AMAZING! I had a prolonged power outage while away and she not only stopped in additional times to make sure my cat was ok/not too hot/auto-feeder was working, she also offered to clean out my fridge so it wouldn’t be full if spoiled food when I returned. She definitely went above and beyond!”

“Madison was absolutely amazing! I had only had Lia for a week and was nervous about leaving her so soon, especially as she was still adjusting to a new environment. But Madison made the whole experience incredibly easy and stress-free. She was communicative, responsive, and sent thoughtful updates that gave me total peace of mind. It was clear that Lia was not just well cared for, but genuinely happy spending time with her. I’m so grateful to have found Madison—she’ll definitely be my first call in the future!”

About: I truly care about dogs and know I can do a good job taking care of yours. I have had plenty of pets including a dog, hamsters, guinea pigs, and bunnies. I also fostered dogs with organizations based in NYC called Muddy Paws & See Spot Rescued. I will care for your dog as if it were my own because I know what’s it’s like to be constantly worried about them. Hope this gave a relative insight on me and why I’d be the right person to care for your dog as needed! I work fully remote as an accountant so I can keep your dog company throughout the day! I also start work at 10AM so I’m available to walk your dog in the mornings as needed as well. I have fostered several dogs so I’m very conscious of providing a safe environment within my home. This tends to coincide with keeping a tidy place to ensure your dog won’t accidentally eat or play with anything dangerous!
About: As a work-from-home dog owner with a flexible schedule, I provide attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s walking, check-ins, or full-time care, I’m available whenever your pet needs me. My experience as a dog owner, love for animals, and attention to detail ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates for peace of mind, making your pet’s happiness and comfort my top priority 🤎 Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly schedule because I work from home, allowing me to dedicate ample time and attention to your pet. My flexible routine means I can easily incorporate walks, check-ins, and care sessions throughout the day, whether it’s a quick morning walk, a midday playtime, or evening cuddles. With no rigid office hours, I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs, ensuring they receive consistent care, companionship, and attention whenever required. I care for my two dogs with daily walks, fun playtime, mental stimulation, and consistent routines - ensuring they are happy, healthy, and as always, well-loved!
“Gigi was an amazing sitter to my Turbo! Upon short notice, Gigi accepted my request happily and asked the right questions to make sure that she got all the details to take care of my husky. The photos that she sent me said it all, Turbo was having so much fun with Gigi and was being taken care of 🐾 🥰 I definitely felt relieved to have someone like Gigi taking care of him. She thoroughly followed my instructions and took the initiative. I came back home to a happy and healthy furry baby! She deserves all the stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Will definitely request her service again!”

Noah was great! He stepped in on short notice to take care of my furry son. Always on time and genuinely attentive, going the extra mile, ensuring everything ran smoothly. I felt completely at ease knowing my big baby was in capable hands. I came back home to a happy doggie. I’ll definitely book his services again. 5 stars! 😊
Brooke was above and beyond wonderful with the patience of a saint!! She dealt with my Vivant alarm and with calm and did the job despite the beeping going off. Integrity and determination is exactly what our medical profession needs. Above and beyond grateful!
Bryanna went above and beyond in helping take care of our 4 cats while we were out of town for 4 days. She was attentive to the cats, communicated with us really well, and was very reliable. And she had no issues giving oral medication and eye drops, which is a huge plus! I definitely feel less anxious about leaving town now and would book her again if she's free the next time we go away.
