Pet Sitting in Melville

“We are incredibly grateful to Karen for taking such wonderful care of our two dogs during our vacation through drop-in visits at the house. This enabled them to stay where they were comfortable and not be boarded. Karen was both professional and friendly, making us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was in contact with photos and summaries of visits which gave us peace of mind. She fed them, let them out, and engaged them in play. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs, and they loved her. We will certainly be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Karen, for your outstanding care!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and over the years, friend, family and neighbors have trusted me to look after their pets. From daily walks and trips to the park to feeding, bathing and overnight care, I've gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and size. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive love, attention, and the care they deserve. Whether it's an energetic pup who loves playtime or a senior dog needing extra patience, I'm committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience for every pet in my care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dog walking, check-ins, and overnight care throughout the week. Whether it's a morning or evening walk, a midday check-up, or extended overnight stay, I ensure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I love spending time with furry companions, so pet care doesn't feel like work it's something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily life. Whether in my home or a client's home, I ensure that every pet feels comfortable, safe and well care for. I live in an apartment, so I provide a clean and cozy indoor environment where pets have fresh food and water, plenty of playtime and quiet space to relax. Pets staying in my home will have regular walks and exercise, and I follow their routine as per the clients request to make sure they feel at home. When caring for pets in a client's home, I stick to their usual schedule to maintain consistency, ensuring they are fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of walks and attention. My goal is to make each pet feel at ease and cared for, whether they're staying with me or in their own familiar space.

“Can’t thank Donovan enough for watching our little pup! He is super friendly, on time, extremely reliable and truly cares about the pets he is watching. He is the best sitter we have ever found and you will not regret booking with him.”

About: With 10 years of experience, I excel in dog training for all ages, from puppies to seniors, and provide personalized care to meet each pet’s unique needs. Pet care is an integral part of my routine, seamlessly blending with my daily activities. I’m dedicated to providing a nurturing and enjoyable experience for pets, ensuring they feel safe and loved. I ensure a secure and clean environment for pets in my home or yours. My focus on safety and trust guarantees that every pet receives top-notch care and comfort.

About: I offer a personalized boarding experience by caring for one dog at a time. This allows me to give your pup my full attention and keep the environment low stress. I do allow occasional short overlaps (a few hours to less than a day) during transitions, but never more than that. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always my priority. With over 19 years of personal dog experience, I believe dogs are family and deserve the best life we can give them. I’m a stay-at-home mom with two kids (1 and 4 years old), and our furry visitors often enjoy the extra love and attention from them. If your dog enjoys children and a homey atmosphere, they’ll fit right in. We’re home most of the day, and our baby proofed home makes a safe space for both kids and dogs! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom. My children and I are home for most of the day, so there’s plenty of time and attention to give to the dogs in my care. Whether it’s welcoming dogs into our home or making time for walks and visits, I’m available throughout the day aside from the occasional errand. Our home is a safe and loving environment, making it a great place for dogs to feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to cater to your pet’s specific needs to ensure a successful visit. I can take your dog for a walk, play in the yard (and clean up after them), or enjoy indoor playtime. After our meet and greet, I’ll ask you to fill out a detailed boarding form to make sure I fully understand your pet’s wants and needs. I’ll also send you updates and photos to keep you informed about how your dog is doing!

“Responsible cat sitter who followed our directions.”

About: Choosing the right pet sitter is a decision that requires careful consideration, as your furry, scaly, or feathered friends deserve nothing but the best care. With years of hands-on experience in the veterinary field, including working alongside veterinarians and vet technicians for the past three years, I bring a unique and knowledgeable approach to pet sitting. Currently furthering my education to become a farm animal veterinarian, my passion for animals extends beyond just cats and dogs; I have experience caring for a wide range of creatures, from reptiles to goats. My background as a veterinary assistant equips me with the skills to provide exceptional care tailored to your pet's specific needs. I understand the importance of proper husbandry and can administer medications, monitor vital signs, and recognize early signs of illness or distress. Whether your pet has special medical needs, I am confident in my ability to manage their care effectively and ensure their well-being. Your pet's health and happiness are my top priorities, and I am committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for them while you're away. By entrusting me with your pet's care, you're not just hiring a pet sitter; you're gaining a dedicated advocate who will treat your beloved companion as if they were my own. I approach each pet sitting assignment with genuine love, compassion, and a commitment to providing personalized attention. From playtime and exercise to cuddles and comfort, I will go above and beyond to ensure your pet feels secure, loved, and happy in my care. Choose me, and experience the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pet is in the best possible hands. As a pre-veterinary student deeply immersed in the world of animal care, incorporating pet care into my daily routine feels not just natural, but essential. My academic pursuits and hands-on experiences seamlessly intertwine, creating a synergistic relationship that enriches both my understanding of veterinary medicine and my ability to provide compassionate care for animals. Balancing my studies with volunteer work at local animal hospitals has provided invaluable insights into the practical aspects of pet care. From assisting with routine check-ups to observing complex surgical procedures, I've gained a firsthand understanding of the diverse needs of animals and the importance of proactive healthcare. These experiences have reinforced my commitment to pursuing a career in veterinary medicine and have instilled in me a deep sense of responsibility for the well-being of every animal under my care. Moreover, the flexibility of my schedule as a student allows me to dedicate ample time to pet care responsibilities. Whether it's providing daily walks, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I'm able to tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each animal. By seamlessly integrating pet care into my daily routine, I not only fulfill my responsibilities as a caregiver but also gain invaluable experience that will undoubtedly serve me well in my future career as a veterinarian. With a bustling menagerie of six beloved pets, my days are filled with a symphony of purrs, squeaks, and happy barks! From the tiniest hermit crab to my loyal canine companion, each member of my furry (and not-so-furry) family receives an abundance of love and personalized care. My two hermit crabs, Steve and Mantis, reside in a carefully curated habitat, complete with climbing structures, hiding spots, and a variety of shells to choose from. I ensure their environment is always clean and humid, providing them with a balanced diet of fresh fruits, vegetables, and commercial crab food. Meanwhile, my guinea pigs, Twix and Peppa, enjoy spacious accommodations filled with cozy hideaways, chew toys, and plenty of fresh hay. Daily cuddle sessions and regular cage cleanings ensure their happiness and well-being. Of course, no discussion of my pets would be complete without mentioning my feline companion, Opal, and my faithful dog, Babii. Opal, a sleek and sophisticated tabby, receives endless head scratches, engaging playtime sessions, and a constant supply of premium catnip. As for Babii, my beloved dog, she’s been my loyal sidekick since I was just 10 years old. From playful romps in the park to comforting cuddles on the couch, our bond is unbreakable, and I cherish every moment we spend together.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a Goldendoodle for 9 years, I bring patience, reliability, and real hands-on experience to every walk and visit. I’m currently looking for full-time work and working part-time currently, so I am very flexible with my timing. I am around during the week and most weekends. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with space to play and relax. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. I give lots of attention, maintain routines, and keep pet parents updated with photos and notes.

“Sara was great with our little puppy. He loved having her come play with him while we were out of the house. Very easy to work with and respectful of our home. Followed our instructions and our puppy looks forward to her visiting again!”
