“Elizabeth has been an incredible addition to our village. She really cares about our pup and is so communicative. She set up a meet and greet and took her time to get the lay of the land and get to know our pups likes, dislikes and lay of the land. It’s been great working with Elizabeth, we greatly appreciate her kindness and flexibility and are very comfortable with her being in our home with our fur baby ♥️🐶”
“Very happy with Kaitlyn. Thank you so much! Our cats were perfectly cared for and house was all secure and just how we left it. Every day we got thorough updates and photos. We liked that Kaitlyn was able to give us a time frame that she would be there everyday so we weren't wondering for an entire day when our cats would get taken care of. Will use Kaitlyn everytime. Its hard to find someone local, trustworthy, experienced and willing to be flexible. So happy we found Kaitlyn. Great, quick communication too!!!!!”
“Kristen was excellent - took good care of our cats and asked us questions when necessary, sending us cat pics as well and always quick to reply. Highly recommended if you need a pet sitter!”
“Michelle was great with Maggie. It takes a little while for Maggie to warm up to people but within 2 meetings Maggie was getting comfortable. Will definitely book again. Highly appreciated and recommend”
“Kloe is my go-to sitter. She always goes above an beyond. My cat is not easy to deal with and Kloe has always been so kind to her. She even took her for a walk once(cuz’ my cat loves that). Couldn’t recommend enough 🫶🏼”
“Shirley took excellent care of my very active puppy. They played games, took long walks, and Ziggy was very relaxed when I returned. Would be happy to hire Shirley again.”
“Mond is incredible as always. My baby Lucy loves him and he is always on top of communication and makes me feel better leaving for trips every time. Thank you!!!”
About: Hi there! I’m Kelly an animal lover based in Little Neck, NY, with a flexible afternoon schedule and a passion for caring for pets like they’re family. Whether you’re looking for a dependable dog walker, a quick drop-in visit, or overnight boarding in a safe, pet-friendly home — I’ve got you covered! I’ve grown up around dogs and cats, and I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog gets the care and attention they need — whether it’s an energetic walk, a belly rub, or just someone to keep them company. 🔹 Services I Offer: – Dog Walking (available weekdays after 3 PM) – Drop-in Visits for feeding, potty breaks, and play available after 3pm and most weekends! – Occasional Boarding (your pet stays at my home) My home is safe and pet-friendly, and I only board one pet at a time to make sure your dog feels relaxed and at home. I know every pet is unique, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely and send regular updates and photos so you feel connected even while you’re away if this would be helpful! Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet so your pup can get to know me! 🐾 I currently have a full time job but am out of work by 3pm which leaves me plenty of time to take care of pups in the evenings! I also have availability over most weekends! ⸻ I provide a safe, loving home with lots of playtime and walks! I follow all care instructions closely and treat every pet like part of the family. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities!
“Kathryn took great care of our 3 dogs while we were away. She was very responsive and we felt at ease knowing she was there to drop in and take care of them in our absence.”
About: I have a dog (belgian malinois) and a cat (american curl). I was the founder and president of the dog club at my high school! I have dog sat and cat sat for my friends, teachers, and neighbors. I am an active person and always make sure my dog gets enough exercise before heading home. I am also a (self proclaimed) cat toy expert, I know how to engage a cat. I am currently a full time college student, I am available in the afternoons after 3 p.m.. I am also mostly available on Fridays and weekends. I have a gated yard and my dog mostly hangs out in the yard and only comes into the house for food and sleep. My cat stays upstairs most of the time and has a 3 story cage when we need to cage him
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, treating each one like my own. From playful pups to senior snuggle bugs, I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and happy. I am a speech therapist at a skilled nursing facility who works close to home. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to give your pet and mine plenty of attention and care. Plus, a loving family member is always home for extra company! I create a calm, loving environment with lots of play, cuddles, and routine. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s schedule to keep them happy and comfortable. Available for meet and greet by Mary Jane Davies park prior to pet boarding. As a personal preference, we don’t do meet & greets in the home and don’t take more than one dog (unless it’s from the same family, 2 max). We don’t mind sending daily pictures and updates.
“Eugene was great. Responded really quick and showed up on time to help feed my puppy. He was very careful, very friendly and very respectful to everything in my house. He even stayed a little bit to play with my puppy to keep her company! I would definitely recommend!”
“Judy is amazing! She has helped me for three times in 2023. She is great with Tiger and very responsive. She kept me updated with how Tiger is doing, which really put my mind at peace when I’m away.”
“I couldn't be happier with how things turned out with Shang. From the very beginning, he was wonderful with communication and very understanding about my hectic schedule (and my embarrassingly messy apartment). Even though I wasn't able to show him around before I left, he still followed all the instructions I left for him, and had a few really great suggestions of his own! My cat is very shy, so he didn't come out, but when I got home, he seemed in the best spirits of any trip I've taken, and I know it was because he was taken such good care of. It was a stressful few weeks, but knowing that I had someone like Shang to take care of my cat while I was away was a huge relief! I'd happily have him back any time!”
“Stacie is a Godsend! We had the opportunity to take a trip to Costa Rica with just 48 hours notice. We were incredibly lucky to find Stacie: We would never have gone abroad unless we found someone great. Stacie provided us with two references, both of whom were thrilled to report she did a fantastic job with their pets: They said she was always on time, posted lots of photos and was incredibly respectful of being inside their homes when no one was around. That was actually my primary concern about hiring someone I did not know: It’s pretty difficult to leave your house keys with a stranger. But Stacie was wonderful. She was incredibly responsible. We took this trip just a few days ago (mid-January 2022) when the city was pounded with a terrible snowstorm. Despite the awful weather, Stacie kept her appointment: She told us in advance that she might be an hour or so late because the blizzard left the roads unnavigable. But, clearly, she made it a priority to check on our two beloved Birman cats: She came just a couple of hours later. I’m sure that was difficult considering the weather, but we truly appreciated it. We knew the cats would be OK in Stacie’s care. And they clearly grew to love her. We are incredibly grateful to have found her.”
“John did a great job feeding and cleaning up after my 4 cats. He came at the times expected. John was courteous and attentive and communicated with photos and texts while we were away. I will definitely use John again. I felt comfortable trusting my home and cats to him. Thanks!!”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life—I’ve cared for all kinds of pets and love every tail wag and sloppy kiss. I’ve walked and watched dogs for friends for years, and now I’m here to give your pup the same love, attention, and fun. Rain or shine, cold or hot—I’m always ready with a leash, treats, and a smile. You can count on me to show up on time, stay prepared, and make your dog’s day I’m currently a student enrolled in an online master’s program, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available to work mornings through evenings, Monday through Friday and Sundays. Saturdays tend to be a bit busier for me, but with advance notice, I’m happy to accommodate requests on that day as well. Your dog’s safety is my top priority on every walk. I always use secure leashes and harnesses,(please let me know if you do not have one in advance, I can provide it), stay alert to our surroundings, and avoid unsafe or overly crowded areas. I never walk dogs off-leash and always follow any instructions you provide. You can trust that your pup will be safe, loved, and well-cared for every step of the way.
“Sarah took care of our cats very well while we were in vacation. One of our cat has eye infection and she also helped us to give her eye drops (it wasn’t easy as our cat doesn’t like it). There were some more other issues and Sarah also helped us to solved them perfectly. Love to see Sarah again next time.”
About: I have experience working with multiple dogs of all sizes through family and friends, from small feisty Poodles, Corgi's, to large German Shepard breeds, I can handle all the usual needs you may need from keeping them busy and happy to the usual walks and strolls that every dog needs! For the current summer, I am usually avaiable for dog walking or drop in visits during the weekdays at 7AM to 3PM. I can hash out details if needed for certain days I may not be available. Stone floored backyard that my corgi loves to play fetch in, and indoor life is quiet but plenty of room for playtime, either with me or my cat.
About: I have a love for pets of all kinds and have been taking care of dogs and cats of friends and family for five years now. I have experiences with pets of all ages and levels of care required. I have basic knowledge of animal behavior and am capable to understand your pets and make sure they remain happy and healthy while in my care. I’m able to pet sit during the day Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. I am available evenings in Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. I am also open to long stays if needed. I am very attentive to your pets needs and am willing and capable to make them as happy and comfortable as possible! Any specific requirements or needs you pet has I am willing to accommodate and work with.

Juliet P.
“Juliet has been an absolute blessing for both me and my 11-year-old black lab mix, Patrick. From the very first time they met, it was clear that there was something special between them—Patrick lights up the moment he sees her, tail wagging wildly as he runs to greet her with the biggest, happiest hello. It brings me such peace knowing he’s in the care of someone he adores and who genuinely adores him right back. Juliet is not only incredibly caring and attentive, but her love for animals shines through in everything she does. She treats Patrick like her own, and that means the world to me. She consistently keeps me updated with messages and photos when she's looking after him, which I deeply appreciate. Working with Juliet has always been an absolute pleasure—she’s reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely one of the kindest people I’ve met. I can't recommend her enough to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family member.”

There were some more other issues and Sarah also helped us to solved them perfectly. Love to see Sarah again next time.”
Gary W.
“When people want to get to know you, a question they might ask is: "Do you like dogs or cats?". Based off the answer, others make their opinions on you based on their own preferences. Gary (De) doesn't have to worry about this question because he absolutely adores both his corgi, Marley, and cat, Rocky. I and other friends will tell you, he will not stop fawning over them if their names comes up when we talk. While both pets can be a handful at times, he can maintain a nice balance between doting on them and taking a firm stance to supervise them based on their behavior. I know nothing about having a pet, but if I did I'd gladly hand them over to Gary to take care of them while I was away with peace of mind.”
Hannah L.
“Hannah’s been pet sitting my cat for the past 2 years now. She’s been so dedicated and reliable. Very respectful with my cat’s needs and my living space.”

Kloe is my go-to sitter. She always goes above an beyond. My cat is not easy to deal with and Kloe has always been so kind to her. She even took her for a walk once(cuz’ my cat loves that). Couldn’t recommend enough 🫶🏼
Mond is incredible as always. My baby Lucy loves him and he is always on top of communication and makes me feel better leaving for trips every time. Thank you!!!
Though it was Michelle second time of sitting Katie and Maya, she was able to pet Maya who usually does not show up and allow her own family members to pet her. Great Job! I would recommend and use her again.
Anna watched my puppy Humphrey throughout the day for 3 days with drop in visits and did great! She was super nice and followed all my instructions and Humphrey loved her! I would def recommend her and use her again!
Jessica is an excellent caretaker of our cat Aden. Helped us with drop in visits for 3 days, coming punctually and playing with our cat how we would if we were there. Aden took to her very fondly and trusted her right away ! If you want a trust worthy pet taker book Jessica for your pets :)
Amanda and Josh are the best cat sitters ever! My super shy cat loves them and they love her back. I never worry when I am away because I know Amanda and Josh treat her as if she were part of their own family of fur babies.
So glad to have found Sarah! She does such a great job taking care of our two cats and is one of the only sitters we've had where our super shy cat warmed up to her right away.
Kristen was very professional polite and on time.i wi recommend her to anyone that love their pets.i will definitely use her again.
Stacie is wonderful. We felt very comfortable leaving the care of our cat crew will visiting our son. Se went beyond the call of duty and kept us weel informed and reassured.
Wonderful! I’m so thankful to find a person so efficient and attentive to the individual needs of both of my elderly cats. I highly recommend her!
Judy has helped me countless times with Tiger. She is thoughtful and caring, and took great care of Tiger. This time I’m gone longer so I asked Judy if she could take Tiger out for a walk. She has no problem with it and took pictures when they were out. Tiger is happy and I’m thankful for Judy’s great work!
Came back to a healthy happy kitty. Plenty of photos sent each day. I have a litter genie & use silica litter, & Morgan followed the instructions on how to use both just fine. Mogan has such a loving personality towards animals & it really shows. Highly recommend!
Emma is a wonderful sitter! We felt at ease being away knowing our cat was in her care. She was very communicative. Our cat warmed up very quickly. She took extra care of our little guy with some extra needs (special diet, medication). Highly recommend Emma. Will be booking again for our next trip!
