House Sitting in Islip Terrace

“Bridget was a wonderful sitter! She accommodated our dogs nervousness and high energy. She sent pictures and video throughout the night and accommodated us when we extended the time. I will be using her again! I would highly recommend her!”

“Very simply- Nick and Justin were awesome! Not only did they respond very clear to our initial last minute request, but they were so nice to our three dogs. Communicated every single walk that they were taken on and anytime that they were fed or let outside. If there were any concerns that they had, they made sure to connect with us before doing anything I felt like I was watching my dogs and I’m very appreciative. We will be sure to be using Nick and Justin exclusively for all of our trips in the future. And I would recommend them to you for your visit in the future as well. Thank you both.”

“Jess was wonderful with our golden retriever! She was prompt, efficient and communicative which eased any worry we had. I would definitely recommend Jess for any dog service you need!”

“Trevor stayed in my home and took care of my 14 year old blind & deaf pug during a blizzard! I totally recommend Trevor and will definitely be using him again!”

“This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter and also the longest we had ever been away from them, so we were understandably a little nervous. Our dogs can be very anxious and reactive around new people, but by the end of her stay they absolutely loved Staci. Staci was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and proactive throughout the entire time we were away. She kept a close eye on anything that seemed even slightly out of the ordinary and always kept us informed. We especially appreciated the many photos and updates she sent each day, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were traveling. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs and their well-being. We came home to two happy, comfortable pups, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would highly recommend Staci to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter.”

“Mark is a caring, professional and responsible animal/house sitter. He stayed in our house with our dog and cat, and we were able to have a vacation without worries for them. Our dog is slow to warm, our trauma girl, and she took to him easily. I recommend him highly.”

“Marilyn was great! While we were away, she stayed at our home with our sweet senior pooch, regularly was in contact with us, sent us photos, and asked questions if she had any. She left our home in perfect condition and we were very happy with her services! We’ll absolutely call her again if we go out of town without him!”

About: My dog is the most important thing to me. Therefore I know what it’s like to worry about whether my fur baby is in good hands. I will treat your baby just as I treat mine and will try to make their time away from you less stressful for both of you. You can be assured that they will be in good hands. Whether it’s for a walk or to take care of them for a couple days. I understand that all pets are different and they all have different needs. I will try to know as much as possible to provide the best service to you and your pet. I have a lot of personal experience with dogs in my own personal life and would love to share that experience with all :)

“This is atleast the forth time Anthony And Melanie have stayed at the house during our trips taking magnificent care of Ollie. The are kind, pet knowledgeable and Ollie adores them! No worries when they are here looking after Ollie. Barbars and Frank Navetta”

“Amanda was great with our kitties while we were away on vacation! She sent lots of updates with photos/videos and was very respectful of our space. Amanda went above and beyond during meal times as our kitties need to be separated and can be picky eaters. I would highly recommend Amanda for any of your pet care needs!”

About: I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I grew up with a family dog and have cared for many of my friends’ and family members’ pets over the past 10 years. I’ve also trained my own dog and love learning new tips and techniques to help pets thrive. Whether it’s a quick walk around the block or a long hike on the trails, I truly enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I’m also hoping that by dog sitting and walking, I’ll finally convince my husband that it’s time for us to adopt our own pup soon! 🐶❤️ I currently work Tues-Thurs full time in NYC office and available most weekends. My husband and I enjoy filling our free time walking and caring for dogs. He and I both will care for your beloved furry baby like it is our own. I’m available most weekdays after work and weekends with notice. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or house rules and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. From walks and feedings to baths, medication, and extra snuggles — I’ll treat your pet like part of the family!

“Kaileigh takes great care of our dog, and is regularly in touch with photos and updates. She has house sat twice for us, and we’d happily have her again, and heartily recommend her to others!”

About: We’ve been loving dog parents for over 25 years, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of our lives. After losing our beloved boy earlier this year, we’ve found ourselves missing the daily joy, snuggles, and companionship that come with having a pet. We’d love to share that love with your furry family member—giving them all the attention, affection, and care they deserve. Think of us as your pet’s extra set of grandparents: all the love, cuddles, and spoiling, with a calm, caring presence you can trust. I’m currently working but am winding down a 30+ year career as an educator. I’m available weekends and over the summer right now. My husband is semi-retired and is available Tuesdays and Thursdays all day. One or both of us are also available after 3 pm Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. We have a fenced yard and sadly no pets for your baby to play with. We have no children in the house either so your dog will be the only guest and will receive our undivided attention. We will only sit for 1 family at a time to ensure you the highest quality care.

“Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️”

“Kimberly was great! We've never used a pet-sitter before so were a little nervous, but Kimberly came over to meet us and our dog before we left and put our minds at ease. Our pup took to her right away when she visited and we appreciated the thoughtful questions she asked. She was a great communicator before and during her stay with our pup and sent so many great photos. Just got home from our trip and the house is spotless. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have a passion for working with dogs (and cats), especially in training with them. I have 10+ years experience of working, riding, and training horses! No matter the age or size, I’ll be there to care for them when you need. Even if they have special needs or quirks, I’ll always accommodate I’m currently in-between jobs, but looking for something full time in the early morning, so I can prioritize my passion for a career with dogs! Weekends are available, depending on the time, but I will always try and work something out! No matter the size or age of your pet, I will always try my very best to accommodate! The two cats I have at home are harness trained so I can still provide them outside time. I am very willing to help at home with keeping within the animals needs.

About: I enjoy cats and dogs as I have had my own, currently pet sit for my roommates cats while she’s on vacation. Cuddle puddles are my favorite pastime Evenings and weekends are preferred, can be flexible. I can do drop ins anytime past 6pm on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends. Emergency calls can also be arranged. I care for pets by slowly introducing myself, first by smell then when comfortable, by touch. I give treats when warranted, but ensure no over feeding/snacking. Lastly I cuddle with pets who are most comfortable.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I have experience with dogs and cats all sizes. I am a huge animal lover. Our pets are family and I will treat them just like my own.I would love to be their new best friend ! You never have to worry about a long walk with me. I enjoy walking, being outside and giving them love,playtime and attention.I have a cat currently and a cockapoo. I also take care of my boyfriend’s Pitbull. I can’t wait to meet your amazing animals and I look forward to being their caretaker. I live in east islip and I am open to caretaking both the smithtown area near work and islip!! I am currently in graduate school and work part time ,so I have a very flexible schedule. This makes my day!!! This is self care for me too and not just a job. This is something I love and enjoy! (I am flexible in the islip and smithtown area!) I have a car and can travel and take your pet to the park or anywhere else needed. I also have experience giving pets medication!

“I highly recommend Donna for any pet sitting needs. She was an amazing sitter and took wonderful care of our three dogs, guinea pig, and fish. Our dogs have become very attached to having someone home since my husband started working from home, so it was a huge relief to know they were happy and calm in Donna's care. Her calm demeanor and warm personality made our dogs very comfortable, and we appreciated the daily photos and messages she sent to keep us updated. We also returned to an immaculate house. Donna’s care truly made our vacation much better. Please do not hesitate to book her for your pet sitting needs.”
