About: I owned two dogs up until the age of 16 and loved them dearly. I often took my dogs out for long walks and played with them to make sure they were always active & engaged. Since then, I’ve dog/cat sat for numerous friends and neighbors throughout and post college. I always treat others’ animals with the same love and care as I did with my own! I currently work from home, so I have the flexibility to walk or play with your dog before 9am or in the afternoon and evenings if needed! Unfortunately I am unable to host at this time due to my resistance not allowing dogs, but I am available to dog sit in your home! I will ensure the comfort and safety of your dog at all times in a clean environment and can provide any specific additional/necessary support needed!

“It was the first time for my dog to be sitted with someone he didn”t know. That brought me anxiety but Brionna in the meet and greet gave me enough confidence to hire her. Although Pelusa played hard to get the first day, they bonded very well as days passed by. I will definitely trust Brionna again to sit for Pelusa.”


“Jorge was amazing 10/10. Responsive, amazing consult experience, followed all directions. Jorge is personable, responsible and trustworthy. Answered all my questions, available by text and calls while I was away. Very professional, would definitely recommend and rebook. Thank you Jorge”


About: I worked 1 year in pet boarding. And bath groomer. I cared every single breed and also cared a lot cats. It’s amazing !!!I loved it I’m available to play all afternoon. I really love spent my time with them. In the morning I have a job but I’ve arrived always early to my home. I always take care to them. Hours to eat, hours to play, to go to walk, most importantly make feel the dog comfortable and also the costumer. I am currently not working but have a few errand along the day. In the morning as soon as I wake up I would take care of the cleaning pet area, feeding and walking if needed. I would repeat the process in the afternoon. I make sure to keep everything as clean as possible, separate the pets as directed by the owners, also feed and walk (of dog) twice a day or as directed for the owner

About: I grew up with cats and they felt like sisters to me. I enjoy spending time with animals as they are very healing to me. I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your furry children :) I follow the instructions and notes given by clients or friends very carefully. I understand the boundaries the animal sets and I let it come to me when it’s ready.

“Emily did an absolutely amazing job with our 10 month puppy! We were sent so many cute and thoughtful updates with photos and videos! I would HIGHLY recommend!!!!! Emily was definitely a star dog sitter!!!!!”


About: I have been pet sitting since the age of 13. As a lifelong dancer, pet care has been one of the only lines of work that has been flexible enough to fit my lifestyle. However, my favorite thing about pet care is how it never feels like work! As a freelance dancer and teacher, my schedule varies between long rehearsal days and sometimes weeks off between projects. Pet care fits well into my inconsistent schedule and brings pockets of joy into my weeks. In my clients homes, I am always respectful and maintain the mindset of "leave it better than you found it", you might sense I have experience in babysitting as well :) But in all honesty I am there to serve your fur babies and keep them happy and comfortable! I am a consistent communicator and will always respond promptly to my clients, as well as be timely (early) to my appointments.

“Tosha was great. She came and met Ellie before her stay. And was communicative while I was away sharing videos, pictures, and written updates. Tosha was also great navigating the fact that Ellie is in heat and also had a front paw issue. I returned after my time away to a happy pup.”


About: My current pet dog has been with me for over 12 years. I have trained several puppies and untrained adult dogs. I have fostered a few. Have long experience with long-term senior care with my parents' dog and my own dog. I sit for my friends' and sisters' dogs and also boarded them. I can handle any dog and am nurturing. I will look after your dog like they are my own. I work from home and take care of my own dog. I have a flexible schedule and can be available on short notice. Can travel if need be. My dog is very laid-back, well-trained, and patient, and walk her 3-4 times a day. She has a nice space in the house with plenty of access to water and a very comfortable bed. She's been trained to avoid certain areas of the house so she doesn't get into any trouble, such as the kitchen and bathroom. I am very diligent about following any medical care instructions. I can walk dogs with varying exercise needs, and am physically strong enough to handle strong pups. And it goes without saying that I'm very responsive to phone calls, texts, and emails if any updates are desired.


“Stav did a wonderful job! We were so appreciative that our Aretha received so many nice long walks in the park (more than we ordinarily do!). Aretha was well taken care of and we came home to a clean apartment! Such peace of mind is everything! Thank you, Stav!”


About: Growing up in a farm in the Dominican Republic amplified my love for animals. As from a young age, I’ve dealt with a variety of different animals as it was apart of my everyday life. When I moved back to New York, my passion for animals remained the same and ever since I was a young adolescent I’ve been providing dog services mainly for friends, relatives, and acquaintances. Most recently since I’ve entered the adult phase in my life, I’ve grown very closer to dogs. I’m extremely passionate about dogs because they’re loving beings who are always by your side through thick and thin. Life experiences have led me to this point, as my passion for pets continues to grow. Providing dog services doesn’t conflict with my every day schedule. My schedule is flexible, as my day to day consists of remote learning, since I’m an aspiring software web developer, with a gym routine. As a recent college graduate, I’ve decided to continue my journey in education which gives me the flexibility throughout the day to provide dog services. I’m a very well organized individual that builds his schedule around his responsibilities. Providing dog services is a passion of mine that doesn’t conflict with my everyday schedule. By providing a safe environment with unique and cater care for your pets. My living situation allows me to have enough space for your pets to be comfortable and safe.
