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.

“⸻ Let me just say—after my first two dog sitters, I almost gave up on this app 🙂. But I’m so glad I found Victor. He is incredibly kind and truly cares. My dog absolutely loves him—he wags his tail and gets just as excited to see Victor as he does to see me, which says everything. Victor is also very reliable. He doesn’t just stick to the exact booked time or show up late like others. He often arrives a few minutes early and sometimes stays a little longer, which I really appreciate. It shows how genuine and dedicated he is. I also have a camera at home, since my dog can’t tell me about his day—and it’s clear that Victor treats him with care and attention. That gives me a lot of peace of mind. He will definitely be my to-go dog sitter moving forward!”

“Neil is amazing! He was prompt, thoughtful, and detailed oriented throughout. He cared for both of my dogs and really took the time to get to know their personalities, quirks, and routine. Thank you Neil!!”

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: Hi! I’m a reliable and attentive pet lover with 6 years of experience as a dedicated dog mom. I understand how important it is to know your pets and home are being cared for by someone responsible, patient, and genuinely loving. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and keeping pets calm and comfortable while you’re away. I also take pride in keeping homes clean, secure, and well cared for during house sits. I’ll treat your pets like family and your home with respect and care! I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, check-ins, overnight stays, and making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Animals tend to warm up to me quickly because I’m calm, gentle, and attentive to their individual personalities and needs. I love spending quality time with pets, giving them affection, playtime, and patience so they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for.

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!.

About: We've cared for dogs of all ages, including senior pets and energetic puppies. We are patient, reliable, and treat every pet like family. We have experience with medication administration, basic training, and understanding different temperaments. Your pet's comfort and safety are our top priorities. Pet care fits perfectly into our routine since we both work part-time and are home often. This allows us to provide consistent attention, timely walks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day. We enjoy being active, so we’re always up for fetch, long walks, or just snuggling on the couch. Our flexible schedules also allow us to accommodate last-minute bookings or special care needs. Safety and trust are our top priorities. At our home, pets enjoy a fully fenced-in yard with plenty of grassy space to play and explore safely. We have one friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves making new furry friends and is gentle and playful. We always take time to understand each pet’s needs and routines.

About: I have many years of experience taking care of animals since I was young, and I’ve always had a strong passion for their well-being. I love seeing animals happy, healthy, and thriving, and I take pride in making sure they are properly cared for. In my family, we have had over six animals, including a bearded dragon, two hamsters, fish, two dogs, one cat, and one snake. I was the main person responsible for taking care of them, including feeding, cleaning, walking, and making sure they were safe and comfortable. Currently, we have a 6-year-old chihuahua, and I take care of him daily by feeding him, walking him, and making sure he is doing well. I’m very attentive, patient, and responsible when it comes to animals of all types and personalities. My experience has taught me how to understand different animal behaviors and adjust to their needs, whether they are energetic, shy, or senior pets. I treat every animal like my own and always make their safety and comfort my priority. (I currently take bookings in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx. ) Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I already take care of my own dog every day, including feeding, walking, and making sure he is healthy and comfortable. This keeps me consistent and responsible with animal care. I have a flexible schedule during the week, which allows me to take on walks and visits in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. I’m able to adjust my time based on each booking so every pet gets proper attention, care, and exercise without feeling rushed. I care for pets by focusing on safety, routine, and making sure they feel comfortable in their environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific rules the owner provides. I make sure doors are secure, pets are always supervised, and I pay attention to their behavior so they stay safe and relaxed. When walking dogs, I keep them on a leash at all times and stay alert to surroundings, other animals, and distractions. I take my time to make sure each walk is calm and controlled. Overall, I treat every pet like my own and aim to create a calm, trusting environment where they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away.

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 was wonderful with my two cats, one of whom proved rather difficult. She was patient, kind, communicative, and overall a lovely person. She stepped in to help when my initial booking didn't work out and it was such a relief to have someone so responsible and caring looking after my kitties. Cannot recommend enough.”

About: (PLEASE KEEP READING FOR LATENESS INFO AND PRICING). Hello, everyone! I am a college student who has more than 10 years of personal experience with a variety of dogs. I've raised and taken care of Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Dalmatians and Labradors in the past and currently own a 9 year old Labrador/Pitbull mix and 2 Rottweiles. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of dogs on my free time as I work out with my own. There's a big park with a dog run right next to me so your baby will always be taken care of and I also keep an AC in the living room for the hotter days. In addition to that, I have worked with dogs with separation anxiety and am very aware of the struggles dealing with that so I always make sure when I take a Rover booking, that the dog is never alone in the house. Furthermore, I have no issues sending pictures and videos of your baby as we all would like to know how our babies are doing when we are not with them. Thank you so much for taking a look at my services and feel free to book me up! FYI, I am very comfortable and very good with big and strong doggos :-). I take pleasure in giving your baby one on one time withNL NO OTHER DOGS at the same time as yours so that they can fully enjoy their time I go to school online so I am able to be with pets 24/7. I also make sure that pets do not stay alone ever while in my care. I do ask however, for clients to stick to their drop-off and pick-up times to respect my time as I respect theirs and their pets', and to avoid any late fees or extra charges. LATENESS: To accommodate for my time and services, this is the lateness , cancelation and time change policy: 3 days in advance for full refund and no additional charges for changes.

THIS WILL ONLY BE REDUCED OR WAIVED WITH A PROPERLY DOCUMENTED, UNFORSEEABLE, UNAVOIDABLE EMERGENCY, AND ULTIMATELY ALSO AT MY DISCRETION. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. Though my dog is friendly, I have a dog cage where my dog sleeps and which separates my own from other owner's pets for safety.

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.

“Clifmon was so nice and had the best vibes for my cat! He was on time and made sure my cat had food, water and all things necessary.. including pets and playtime! Thank you again!”

Giselle A.

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.
