“Taylor regularly walks/house sits for my dog! She’s always reliable and communicative when she’s taking care of my pup. I absolutely recommend Taylor for your pets needs!”

“We are very pleased with the exemplary care that Alexa provided to our dog Finnegan during a several day stay in our home. Finnegan warmed up to her within seconds of meeting her. She was proactive in communicating with us regularly, providing much-appreciated pictures. Alexa has been a caring, reliable, and responsible sitter whom we’d recommend to others and plan to call upon again!”

About: I’m a long-time cat and dog owner with experience caring for friends’ and families’ pets as well. I have lots of free time and flexible availability. I currently work part-time where I choose my own hours! I’m looking forward to using my free time to care for your pets and give them my full attention. I will care for your pets in whichever way best works for you. I’ll keep them safe and away from other animals and humans on walks, give them the right amount of exercise for their breed or size, and give them all the pets and attention they could ever ask for.
“David did an outstanding job watching our dog, Trixie. He walked her often during the day, and had her out early in the morning and well into the evening. He came to our home the day before his scheduled time to meet with us, and to see the dog. He wanted Trixie to see us together with him, so she would be comfortable knowing that he was an accepted part of our pet family. He left our home in perfect condition when we came back from a brief vacation. David is a very nice person and he is well suited with pets. I would have David back in the future when his services are again needed. Roseann and Mike b”

About: I have been walking and babysitting dogs for 4 years. In addition, I have two dogs of my own, one which I’ve had for around 9 years. My newest one I got as a puppy, so I have experience with dogs of all ages. Besides dogs, I used to have two holland lop rabbits. Overall, I have a lot of experience with pets of all kinds as I had grown up in a household full of pets! I am currently a rising senior in college. I will be based in Rockland County from June 16th to August 18th. I will be available almost every day to walk and petsit your dogs as needed! I live in a town house with 2 small dogs, my sister, and my mom. There is an easily accessible park that I take my dogs to play in very often. I have multiple crates available around my house to provide a safe space for them to sleep. In a client’s home, I typically ask for a schedule that contains walking and feeding times and would do things they usually do in their daily routines.
“I had Ivy stay with my girl Cassie for 3 nights. She did a great job! Cassie and I loved her on our meet and greet. She was very respectful of my home as well. She took the time to write down all feeding and medication times because she knew how important it was to give her medication every 12 hours. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pets. I get nervous leaving Cassie when I have to travel for work, but Ivy staying with her definitely put my mind at ease. I will be using her again for my next trip in a few weeks!”


About: I have had pets all my life and love animals. I am currently a freshman in college following a pre-vet path to one day become a veterinarian. I am in college and work a part time job but I still have a very flexible schedule! I will always make sure to make time for your pets! I have had pets my whole life! My dogs have a fenced in yard they love to run around in. All of my cats are indoor and love being close to people. I also have 2 bunnies and a tortoise that have their own room with lots of roaming space!
“Melissa was wonderful with our new tiny Maltese puppy Penny. She was loving and patient with Penny and we look forward to having her come stay with Penny again in our home.”

About: I am a life-long animal lover. I grew up with dogs, a cat, a rabbit and anything else I could convince my parents to house! I've been riding horses since an early age as well. Connecting with animals has always come very naturally to me. I truly enjoy caring for and loving animals. My first job, at the age of 13, was as a daily after-school dog-walker, for my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog, Winston. That 30 minutes was the highlight of my weekdays. Animals and their pet parents have been finding me ever since! :) I work in the school system and my days end at 3:10pm. I am available most weekdays after 3:30pm for drop-in visits and walks. I also have weekend availability. My schedule will be much more open & flexible during the summer! During visits, I focus purely on your pet and his/her needs. Drop-ins are normally feeding, a potty break & fresh air, some playtime, water change, a treat (if that's okay by you!) and of course, lots of LOVE. I will tailor the play activities to your pets preferences and energy level for the best experience. During walks, I will remain consistent with the usual pace and route. My goal is for your pet to receive the right amount of activity & stimulation and feel comfortable and happy in my company. I will always make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and looked after as if he/she is my own. :)
About: I’ve been house sitting/pet sitting since I was around 17 years old. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I’ve watched dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, fish and more. I’m familiar with pee pads, crate training and dog diapers. I will always treat your animal with respect and kindness, showing them so much love while you are away. I’m currently not working so I would have plenty of time to be with your furbaby. I do volunteer work during the week but I would still have plenty of time to care and be with your animal. I can walk, play, snuggle, crate train and prepare meals for your animals. You just tell me what the preferred routine is and I’ll do my best to match that so your animal feels safe and loved.
About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.
“Maddie was great to work with. She was prompt and took care of our 12 week old pup so well. She played with her, took her for walk and took really good care of her. She sent constant updates with pictures when we were out, which was really helpful.”
About: My name is Kyle, I am a dog walker/trainer with over 5 years of experience working and caring for dogs. I have a passion for taking care of dogs and watching their personalities grow so I promise your dog will be in excellent hands. Having three giant dogs myself keeps me up to date with how to handle any size dog, walk multiple dogs at once and how to handle the dogs in a loving, caring and professional manner. If given the responsibility to care for your dog, he would not only just be cared for and walked, he will be getting small training sessions if you would like. It is my job to treat your dog with the up most respect and love. Thank you!

Kyra is a top notch professional. She sent me tons of pics and updates throughout the day when she was dog sitting at my home. She paid much attention to my dog and even felt that he had a tick! (which she removed expertly.) She took great care of my house too. My dog was happy when I got home. Would definitely recommend!

Amanda is amazing! My dog is recovering from a back injury and I needed someone on short notice to spend the day with him while I was at work. Amanda made sure he was comfortable and not moving (as the doc put him on bed rest) the entire day. Amanda was super communicative, sending regular updates. You can tell how much she loves animals - she poured so much love into my dog. Lastly, Amanda treated my apartment with the upmost care, and left it better than she found it. I highly recommend. Thanks again!

David took great care of our two senior dogs in our home while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely responsive to check-in inquiries and very accommodating to our dogs’ specific needs. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of excellent care for their pets.

Isabel is great! She watched my baby for while I was away for a trip and loved on him exactly the way I would. Fleece can be a handle with between his energy and clinginess and Isabel did an amazing job. She was communicative every step of the way followed all care instructions and sent plenty of picture of my baby while I was away. I even had an emergency at the house while I was away and she handled it great! Offering extra help wherever she could. If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to contact Isabel!
