Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll be there for your pet!
Introduction We have worked as pet sitters in NYC for almost 6 years. We have experience administering pills, insulin, and inhalers. We understand it is hard to leave your pet with a "stranger", which is why we send detailed updates, and plenty of pictures/videos. Our goal is to ease any anxiety while you are away, for both you and your pet! . Experience We have experience with a variety of dog breeds (from irish wolfhounds to dachshunds), and are familiar with differing ages and stages of training. We’ve encountered many different types of personalities with cats, and are intuitive to their mood and needs. We've also cared for chickens, lizards, fish, hamsters, bunnies, and axolotls. . About Claire (available) I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life! I had my German Shepherd, Emma, since she was a puppy until her passing at 13. We fostered cats/kitties for about a year before adopting Dot in 2024. Animals have always been special to my heart and I'm so happy to be able to help pets and their owners in their day to day lives. I work in education, and enjoy reading in my spare time. . About Patricio (available) I grew up with dogs and have found a lot of joy tending to their needs and seeing their personalities flourish. Claire and I fostered cats for about a year, and it was a very rewarding experience helping shy cats find their forever homes. I am an educator, and enjoy going on runs and being in nature. I am also a native Spanish speaker.

Ratings and reviews
Claire and Patricio are the absolute best.
Claire and Patricio are the best! Conscientious, caring and responsible. I couldn’t be happier with having them as my kitty guardians! I recommend them highly for their exceptional care and diligent communication.
She is a super star - I can tell how happy our cat was to have her take care of him
Patricio gave excellent care to our two senior ladies, Tootsie and Peanut, for the week we were away. He was responsive to their different personalities, making them both comfy during his visits and giving them each love the way they like to recieve it. He was super responsive to us on text. Happy to have found a new friend for our girls when we're out of town.
Pato did an amazing job looking after our cat! He provided detailed updates and lots of pictures and videos. He seemed to enjoy the visits as much as our cat did, which made me so happy to hear. Would definitely rebook and recommend!
Claire was excellent communicating during the check ins will definitely recommend and use again.
