“Sylvia cat sat for us for a few days and she always stayed way past her 30 minutes drop in visit time. She is very thorough. She gave our 2 cats treats and washed the bowls afterwards. She followed the directions thoroughly and will always let us know when she arrives and when she leaves. She sends us a ton of videos and photo updates.”


About: I’ve had experience taking care of puppies, middle age, and senior dogs for over 13 years, including kittens/cats! I’ve loved animals ever since I was a child and genuinely enjoy everything about pet care! If you’re looking for someone who understands how precious pets are and will truly take the time to ensure they’re safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away, I’m your guy! I have a rotating schedule for my job so I have every other weekend off, while also having days off during the week. When I’m not at work, I’m always home and will be able to give 100% of my attention to the animal in my home! I live in a calm neighborhood with plenty of sidewalk space with surrounding grass for walks, I can give baths as needed, I follow any medication routines or dietary restrictions provided by the pet owner, and I also just love to spend time playing or relaxing with the doggy! I also provide the same kind of care for cats (aside from baths, as they probably wouldn’t like that 🤣)

“Deanna took great care of my fur baby! She sent great pictures and notes. She went above and beyond several times and spent more time with my cat than I had booked for her. My cat got along great with her and he was happy and healthy when I got back. High recommend!”


About: I had my own dog for 10 years, so I understand the love and care they need every day. I also regularly dog-sit for my best friend’s two pups and have experience with larger breeds. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just providing comfort while you’re away, I treat every dog like my own. I work from home and don’t have any pets of my own right now, which gives me plenty of time and energy to care for yours. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to help give your dog the attention they deserve while you’re away or busy with your day.

About: I have raised German Shepards, Golden Retrievers, Great Danes, and I am currently a mommy to a Japanese akita, I have experience with several dog breeds. I am currently bartending events on call therefore my schedule is very flexible. I am able to have a lot of time for your fluffy. Kiki has a routine she is on, she is a very calm dog, she gets along very well with cats. Many people have told me that she must have been a cat in her past lifetime.

About: I have taken care of my own dog since I was 6 and have experience cat sitting for family friends. I have also been around a wide variety of pets- from a very talkative parrot to an energetic ferret! I genuinely love getting to know new animals and making sure that they feel completely relaxed and comfortable with me. My top priority is to keep your pet(s) happy and well-loved until you return. I recently graduated from Penn State and am currently working part-time as a Behavior Therapist for children with autism. After returning home from college, I said goodbye to my childhood dog of 16 years. It would mean so much to me to share the love I had for my own pup with your pet(s). Whether it’s playtime, walks, feedings, or just relaxing company, I would love to make sure your pet(s) feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I live in an apartment building, which is where my dog grew up. He started out sleeping in a crate while he was being potty-trained. As he got older, he had to rely on me and my family to carry him up and down the stairs, push him in his stroller when he could no longer walk on his own, and help him take his medications. I understand that caring for animals with different qualities of life requires adjusting to their needs, and I plan to do just that for you and your pets.

“Nusta took great care of my dogs! I needed my dogs checked on quickly & Nusta was able to promptly do a visit last minute. She even sent cute photos of them & updates. I keep a pee pad out for my smaller dog and she cleaned up after that too.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 16 years. I love to play, walk, and make them feel loved while their human is away. With patience and kindness I make sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for. I am currently going back to school for teaching and have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend. I am available for regularly scheduled walks/visits as well as one-time walks on an as needed basis I care for pets in your home and around your neighborhood on walks. I am always looking for local dog parks to bring your pet!

“Kara truly is the best!!! She took such good care of our cats over the thanksgiving holiday, she’s so attentive and makes sure the cats feel cared for!! I could not recommend her enough!!”


About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 17 years old. I would dog-sit for a fellow neighbor and grew to love their two dogs. I would also have family members asking if I could watch their dog while on vacation with boarding and dog walking. Now that I have a dog of my own, I want to treat any dogs I take care like I would expect mine to be taken care of. I currently have a part-time job so I am able to do walks at night or on Fridays and weekends. For boarding, I do have to be in-person four days a week so I will have someone available to walk as my dog also needs to be walked! I really enjoy going to walks and making sure that the pets I watch are taken care of so that once inside nap time is required :) Inside of my home, I have many toys for your fur baby to play with. My dog is also friendly and will be wanting to play with your dog! In your home, I typically look at the environment and remind myself that I am a guest at your house! I will ensure that everything is looked after.

“Cristian took good care of my two-year old kitty. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and I felt comfortable leaving him, knowing she was looking in on him.”


About: With a lifelong passion for animals and years of hands-on experience, I bring a unique level of care to every pet I look after. I've cared for dogs of all sizes since childhood and have a deep understanding of both energetic pups and senior dogs with special needs.

My apartment, though modest in size, is located in Forest Hills which is a quiet, beautiful neighborhood with plenty of green space for walking, playing, and outdoor breaks. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I prioritize their comfort and safety while being respectful and mindful of your space and surroundings.

I currently have a freelance schedule and can schedule accordingly to make sure supervision is constant and walks are given multiple times a day as well as plenty of playtime. We have a one bedroom apartment and give dogs freedom on furniture. We have a 5 year old rescue lab that likes to play with most dogs. He also lets dogs have their space.

About: I have a love for all dogs and treat each and every one that comes into my care as if it were my own. I would love to help you take care of yours in any way necessary. I also have trained multiple dogs in the past and can provide some help with obedience and leash walking if necessary. I work a few hours a day from home on my computers. So I have a lot of free time and am flexible enough throughout the day to be able to schedule the regular care of dogs into my day to day life. I really pride myself in getting to know the dog and taking every detail into account. Especially advice from the owner. I’m really attentive and make sure to be able to constantly check in with the dog if I need too.

“Brently is a dream. My kitty took to him immediately (seriously, he was there like 10 minutes and she was in his lap). He followed my laundry list of instructions and sent great photos. I will definitely use him again.”

She has taken care of my dog multiple times over the weekends, and each time, she has done an absolutely amazing job. Leyah is the kind of person you can trust completely when it comes to your pets. She followed every instruction I gave her, from feeding times and walks to little things like giving my dog her favorite toy and making sure she got enough cuddle time. She even took the time to send me updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear how much she truly cares for animals—she’s gentle, patient, and full of positive energy that pets naturally respond to. What stands out the most about Leyah is how reliable and responsible she is. I never had to check in or worry—she always took initiative and made sure everything was taken care of. My dog absolutely adores her, and I could see how happy and comfortable she was in Leyah’s care. Leyah is not only an amazing pet sitter, but she’s also just a kind and caring person overall. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving person to care for their dog. Your pet will be in excellent hands with her! Sincerely, Carly”
