Caring, Experienced Pet Companion!
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Ben - I’m a 26-year old native NYer and huge cat & dog lover who lives in Midtown East. I went to UPenn for college and worked in tech, and I’m now pursuing my Master’s degree in the city. I have lots of experience caring for beloved pets of my own and for my friends, doing everything from the month-long catsitting job to the one-off dog walk (and potty break) around the block! In college, my roommates and I lived off-campus and took custody of an adorable stray cat (Lima) for a couple of years. We kept her healthy and safe and generally well-kept for. Of all the members of the household, I’d like to think Lima liked me best! She was full of energy and I had to think of creative ways to tire her out so she could leave us to focus on our studies. At night, she would always choose to sleep by my feet. Although I’ve never owned a dog myself, I do have experience taking care of them for my friends who needed someone to housesit and walk them. I’ve walked all kinds of dogs, from massive and muscular pit bulls to tiny Yorkies. I would always offer my services willingly because I just loved doing it so much! As a pet-sitter or dog-walker, I promise to take the very best care of your pet’s needs, whether in feeding, walking, or just giving affection. Hope to meet you and your furry friends soon.
Reviews
Ben is the best! He came to my apartment to dogsit my pup for the evening and was great with her and was super respectful of my place. Would definitely work with him again!
Ben was fantastic, was very attentive with our two cats, always took pictures of them, was very responsive and spent a lot of time with them to make sure they were comfortable. The best sitter we have ever used, would absolutely recommend him.
Ben was great! He followed all instructions and sent a lot of pictures to show us how much fun our cat was having :) Would definitely recommend him.
So great! Will have Ben cat sit in the future!!

A typical day
I will be sure to give your dog all the attention he or she deserves! If near my area, I would be delighted to show your pup all around my neighborhood, maybe take him on a little walk by the East river where there are a few nice little green pockets of park to roam.
