About: I enjoy leading an active lifestyle, being outdoors and in nature. In fact, that's why dogs have 4 legs-so they can experience more of the benefits of walking! My goal is to care for your dog as if my own child and to provide a SAFE time for play, so you have peace of mind. Also, I'm currently learning a lot about dog care & behavior from YouTube University 😄 It's rewarding to be responsible for taking care of someone's loved one-even for a nice short walk. Being around dogs is therapy and makes me feel like a playful kid all over again 💩 I'm always down to set up a meet & greet so we can chat about hobbies, food and more doggy details. Currently, I have a flexible schedule and always make time for going on walks, preferably afternoon and evenings. 👉🏻Tips for your dog that keeps pulling 🐕‍🦺 🐾 When the dog is walking in front it's the one in charge, that's no good 🐾 You want a loose leash dog at your side 🐾 Be aware of your BL. Don't tense up, be calm with relaxed shoulders 🐾 Short sideways tug of leash, if you want to change directions and take the lead 🐾 Use a firm 'NO', don't worry it's healthy Remember, practice and patience are 🗝️ I want to advocate for dogs because it's our public doodoo. It's meaningful for me to help protect our pets as this gives me a sense of pride and joy.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and pets since I was 4. While your dog is at my home, they will be bathed (if comfortable), eat high end treats, a full backyard to play in, and tons toys just for them. I worked at my family’s kennel for my whole life. I know how to administer medication, handle aging pets, and ensure safety. I’ve dog sat for friends and family members frequently! I’m comfortable with dogs of all size ranges and personalities. I’m a full time college student, however, I have multiple days off in my schedule that allow me to take care of your pet. I’m near many transportation options, so getting to you is no problem! Anything you tell me, I will follow. I will never leave your pet alone for long periods of time. Your pets’ safety means the world to me. I will even clean up after your pet, if and when they make a mess!

About: I've been around dogs since I was a toddler. Growing up with them has given me good experiences. When knowing behavioral signals like if they are uncomfortable. I'm good at keeping dogs well entertained and having fun. I've also had experience with senior dogs and as well as cats. I also have got to witness dog training from puppies to adult dogs because of my mother. I am open everyday Monday- Sunday if you don't have time to walk or feed your pet no problem I'm there! Always glad to help. I live in a building with a dog park close by so they will spend a lot of their time at the park. I have a puppy who loves new friends so they will have a friend to play with. They will have plenty of room to run and play and burn off energy. As for at the clients home, I will find a nearby park if its not raining and before heading home and having many pets and snuggles and playing in the house

About: Hello wonderful pet parent, my name is Briana! As a Certified Pet Caregiver living in Bronx, NY, I have been taking care of family dogs (Chatty Huskies, Loving Pitties, and Playful Great Danes) on and off for nearly 8 years, and I personally have raised my now passed on furbaby cat for 17 years. I have basic knowledge of Pet CPR and are undergoing full training so I could also be fully certified in that skill set as well. I’m also going to update my Pet Sitter Course certification before the 2025 year ends. If given the chance to take care of your furry friend, I will provide your pet with upmost care and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable under my care. I am actually a freelancer and own my own business, so pet sitting and dog walking your furbaby is no problem of me to do! It also gives me the opportunity to not be cooped up in the house working and get some exercise haha! Services And Training: Certified Pet Sitter/Dog Walker from online training course: PetSitterCourse. I have experience with maintaining pet health, am comfortable giving oral/ injected/ eye drop medication to pets, facilitating exercise, and cleaning litter boxes. **Please know that while I can administer Insulin and and low volume injected medication to pets, I am not trained in giving high volume subcantuous fluids to pets!** I have professional dog walking experience using a pet service app called Wag!.

“I found Jessica's profile to be warm and engaging with her "clients" so I decided to reach out as I needed last minute childcare for my furbabies. She reached out to me immediately and we were able to connect and do a visit. Im a worry wort as this would be the first time I was doing drop-ins vs. Overnight care. Jessica assured me that my babies were in great hands. She took excellent care of my furchildren. She kept me updated, took photos, and provided information on why one of my cat's was behaving aggressively (i found him abandoned in a small crate in my building two weeks before I had to leave town. Hence why I needed someone). He's soon to be snip snipped. She also played with them too which was awesome because they love that. She was a trooper and cared for my babies for 15 days. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again for her services.”

“Kevin did an amazing job sitting for my pup. He was very responsive and professional, and even allowed some last minute requests. I would definitely recommend him. I will definitely ask for his help in the future if needed.”

About: I’ve cared for animals of all ages. I used to go to zoology camps when I was a kid and used to want to be a vet. Having the trust of an animal is a privilege and a blessing and I do not take these things for granted 💙 I work part time at a fitness studio and substitute teach. I’d love to pop by and check on your furry loved ones or take your pooch for a walk before or after work or on weekends when I’m not with my own cat 🐈‍⬛ I love guidance and instructions - if you leave them, I’ll follow them to a ‘T’. Also, not to brag, but animals love me. In addition to wanting to be a vet when I was a child, a Disney princess surrounded by woodland creatures was high on the list!

“Kristina is the best! She truly provides such amazing care and you can tell how much she loves the pets she takes care of as bonds with them. I always feel safe when she is watches my senior cat, she does a great job with meds and duet, very attentive :)”

About: Started caring for cats at 15 then would board friends dogs while they travel and have even fostered dogs at risk of euthanasia and/or stray dogs traveling from Texas. I work full time m-f however am able to wfh as needed and always have enough time to cuddle and play with furry friends. Weekends are always free for outdoor play time or indoor snuggle sessions. I am in a spacious apartment with a 3 year old cat and 9 year old dog. Both are friendly and love to nap all day. More than enough space to be separated if needed.

About: Hi! I'm Alexandrea, a lifelong animal lover, theatre professional, and devoted pet parent serving the Bronx and Queens. I've spent my entire life around dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pup is happiest exploring the neighborhood, taking a leisurely sniff-filled stroll, or getting some extra exercise, I tailor my care to their individual needs. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else's care. Communication, reliability, and safety are incredibly important to me, and I'll always treat your dog like one of my own. You'll receive updates, photos, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your best friend is getting plenty of attention, affection, and care. Whether you need regular walks, drop-in visits, or help while you're away, I'd love to meet you and your pup! I enjoy walking around this city with my four-legged friends or even sometimes going for a run! I'm committed to making sure your dog is living its best, active lifestyle. I am very open to all owners requests and needs, and I want to do everything in my power to make sure your dog is safe, and well taken care of when you are not around. Your family member is like a family member to me.

About: I grew up with animals such as goats, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, and rabbits. I currently have two cats that I’m obsessed with. I have furbaby sat for multiple furbabies in one household which one of whom who had a heart condition that required medication distribution 2x a day. I also helped ease anxiety ridden fur babies by being present, cuddling, create a song and dance number if they let me and taking a ton of photos. Also have had requests to take of care other pet babies such fishes and Guinea pigs as well. I ensure that all furbabies basic needs are met but also their social-emotional wellbeing. Animals require lots of love as they can have a hard time being out of their element. I have unconditional love to provide while their parents can do what they need with peace, ease, and comfort knowing that their fur babies are safe and cared for in a lovingly environment. I am available for doggy/kitty daycare and boarding in my home from Monday-Saturday (fur babies can be picked up Saturday morning/afternoon). If you need a Sunday accommodations I am willing to work with you. I am available Monday-Saturday for walk. will do my best to be accommodating to the pets needs. I am home at the moment as I have recently lost employment. I have the time and love to provide for fur babies as I given already given my time and care for human children while I was employed with child welfare. *PLEASE NOTE: While rover does not require a meet n greets (although highly recommended by them), I DO REQUIRE a meet n greet. This is to ensure that all of our furbabies get along and are safe. Safety is my number one priority. I am willingly to work with your schedule to ensure the meet n greet happens, however after 2 failed attempts to meet n greet, I will have to respectfully decline further services. Thank you and looking forward to caring and cuddles with your furbabies. I live on the third floor in a one bedroom apartment. My windows are safeguard so no furbaby can escape or be harmed. I have a large living room with no furniture at the moment so there’s plenty of space for play (my cats love the open space to run around with their toys) and sleep. If there’s a specific schedule that needs to be followed (i.e dietary needs, meds, etc) i will need it in writing what that schedule will look like. I usually will wash all animal dishes prior to meals and ensure there’s adequate clean water supply at all times. I will provide walks, playtime, cuddles and medication(if necessary). I have great communication skills and will provide updates and photos upon request. I am near two parks where the dogs can play and walk while feeling safe.

“This is the second time Secret has watched over our cats and we're just as impressed as the first time. She even remembered their feeding details from a year ago! It makes being away stress-free, knowing the care she continues to show our kitties and our home. Until next time!”
