About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From growing up with family pets to helping friends and neighbors with theirs, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling nervous or shy dogs, and offering basic reinforcement of training (like sit, stay, or leash manners) if desired. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and fully present for your pup, as I understand the importance of trusting the person caring for your furry family member. I'm currently working part-time, but I will have more time on my hands once I graduate from university. I am available to stop by during the day and walk, feed, and administer any medications, but I am even more available on evenings and overnight if needed. I am available all day on weekends. I am willing to work with your schedule. I always prioritize maintaining the pet’s regular routine and environment to help them feel safe and relaxed. I carefully follow all instructions provided—from feeding and walking schedules to any specific behaviors or medical needs—to ensure consistency and comfort.I treat every home with the utmost respect and care, keeping it clean, secure, and in the same condition as I found it. My goal is to not only care for your pet like family but also to leave your home exactly the way you’d expect—safe, clean, and full of happy tail wags.

About: Since grade school I have been taking care of my families animals. I have experience with puppies and kittens. In the past I have been done extended pet sitting for weeks at a time. My girlfriend and I currently have two young cats (Bob & Paolo). I am excited to match your fur babies energy whether that’s going on long walks or being couch potato’s together. You tell me! My girlfriend and I have recently moved to New York from Wichita, KS so she can finish up med school. Leaving my previous job behind I am currently available for what works for you! From previous pet sittings I am used to giving medication, adding raw food to kibble, & going on long walks. I took care of my sisters prehistoric 14 year old Frenchie who was very high maintenance. Just let me know what your fur baby needs!

“Danielle is wonderful! She is friendly and kind and was great with Grace. She also treated our home very respectfully and was great with other things we asked her to do such as pick up the mail etc. She came for a meet and greet and then we asked if she would spend the night beforehand so as to accustom Grace to her which she agreed to. I can’t think of one thing she could have done better and I hope she is available in the future when we need her. Thanks Danielle!”

About: Hello, I have experience dog sitting for friends and family. My childhood German Shephard instilled in me a love of all canine creatures that I carry with me to this day. I would love to chat with you and help you with what you and your dog needs and wants. Proud caretake of a black cat, originally my grandmothers that she can't take care of anymore due to a stroke. All animals are deserving of a friendly face who they feel is there to love and help them! I live on Long Island but also work in Roosevelt Island in NYC. I'm willing to serve dogs in both communities. I want to help out with animals because I truly love and cherish them. Thanks for reading!

About: With over 16 years of in-home pet care experience, I’ve lovingly cared for animals at every life stage—from playful kittens and puppies to wise, senior pets. Whether your companion needs extra cuddles, gentle care, or just a friendly face while you're away, I provide affection, attentiveness, and compassion every step of the way. As a freelance writer with a flexible schedule, I am able to tailor pet care around your needs, offering dependable support, even on short notice.

Every pet, every person, and every routine is unique, and I’m here to support all of it with compassion, reliability, and love.

About: I truly have always felt my purpose was to take care of animals. Every animal I see I feel a connection with, whether I know them for 14 years or 14 minutes. They hold such a special place in my heart. When it comes to animals, of ANY kind I have the softest spot for them. It’s sometimes hard to explain my love for them because it runs so deeply. I have had many dogs and cats throughout my lifetime and they have never once failed me and I truly don’t think I have ever failed them. I have trained my own puppies in the past and I will continue training your puppy if that is where you’re at with your puppy. My dogs and cats have also turned into seniors as well and I am prepared to do something as simple as sitting on the couch and cuddling with them. I have had to pick up my senior dogs who couldn’t walk, hand feed them when they could no longer eat, help them to the bathroom and I have loved every second that I could be there for them and help them in their time of need because for the years they gave me, they always helped and loved me unconditionally. I am currently not working and home raising my 2.5 year old son and my 1.5 year old pup! My son is in activities throughout the week but they don’t take up too much time. I would only be gone for about 2 hours a day MAX! I have a 6 foot fenced in yard with a large leveled patio and grass for your furbaby to enjoy sunbathing, playing in the snow, running and playing. I currently have a 1.5 year old female puppy named Roxy! She is an ANGEL!! She gets along with every dog. She is about 35 pounds, fully grown. I also have a 2.5 year old son who calls Roxy his “sissy”. He, like his mother is a huge animal (of all kinds) lover. I do have a small crate and an extra large crate from my previous dogs. The small crate can hold up to about a 20 pound dog where the large crate can hold up to about a 100 pound dog. I am willing to discuss whatever it is that your fur baby needs because I know they are all different and require different things!

“It was such a pleasure having Travis stay at our house and take care of our two pups. At the first meet and greet my dogs were calm and very welcoming. They took to him right away. At the second meet and greet they were so excited and happy to see him. Seeing their reaction and his interaction with them gave me a very safe and comfortable feeling that my dogs and my home would be well taken care of. On the day we left on our trip he arrived on time as planned and he kept in touch with us the whole time. Arriving home after 4 days, my dogs and my house were just as I left them. So happy we found Travis and we will definitely be asking for his help again in the future.”

“Taylor is truly one of a kind. My 120 lb Bernedoodle has severe anxiety, and finding someone he feels safe with has always been a challenge — until we found Taylor. From the moment they met, it was clear that her love for animals is something special. She has such a calming, patient way about her, and my dog (who is normally very nervous around new people) instantly trusted her. Taylor takes incredible care of him, treating him like her own. She’s attentive, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what she does. I can relax knowing he’s in the best hands possible. We are so lucky to have found her — she’s truly a part of our family now!”
