Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize a safe, calm, and consistent environment for every pet I care for. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, and any medications, while paying close attention to their behavior and comfort level. Dogs are always securely leashed on walks, and cats are never forced into interaction, they’re cared for on their terms. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and mindful of security at all times. You’ll receive regular photo updates so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for.
Information Nellie G. would like to know about your pet
Before each booking, it’s helpful to know as much as possible about your pet so I can provide safe, consistent, and personalized care. Please share any details about feeding routines, walk schedules, litter box preferences, medications, allergies, behavior quirks, and how your pet responds to new people or changes in routine. It’s also helpful to know about any triggers (like other dogs, loud noises, or handling sensitivities), as well as emergency contacts and your preferred vet information.
A typical day
A typical day depends on each pet’s routine, but my focus is always the same, keeping them comfortable, engaged, and stress-free. For dogs, this includes walks tailored to their energy level. Everything from relaxed neighborhood strolls to more active walks with time to sniff, explore, and burn energy safely. I also include playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention so they feel settled and cared for. For cats, I follow their lead. Some want interactive play with toys, others prefer quiet company or space while I handle feeding, fresh water, litter care, and a quick wellness check. I always respect their boundaries and let them engage on their terms.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m a pet sitter based in New York City offering calm, attentive, and highly reliable in-home pet care. I provide a steady, low stress presence for pets who thrive on routine, familiarity, and gentle attention while their owners are away. My approach is quiet, consistent, and detail-oriented, focused on maintaining your pet’s normal rhythm so they feel secure in their own environment. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of varying temperaments, including pets who are shy, sensitive, or accustomed to more structured care. I take time to understand each pet’s behavior, preferences, and routine so care feels seamless and familiar. Clients can expect clear communication, timely updates, and thoughtfully documented check-ins with photos so you always feel connected and informed while traveling. I also take great care in respecting your home. Maintaining a clean, orderly space and ensuring everything is exactly as you left it. Whether you need overnight care, drop-ins, or extended stays, my goal is simple: your pet remains comfortable, your home remains respected, and you travel without concern. Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter. I can't wait to meet you and your beloved pets! Warm regards, Nellie

Reviews
Nellie is so great with our 3 cats and they love her. She is responsible, reliable, and goes above and beyond our expectations. Nellie communicates regularly and sends the cutest pics. Everything I could ask for in a sitter 😻
Nellie has looked after my cat Kuhuna many times, sometimes for over a week at a time, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. She’s super reliable, always on time, and really attentive to any instructions I leave for her. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. She also always sends the cutest pictures and thoughtful updates, which gives me a lot of peace of mind when I’m away. Kuhuna is always happy and well taken care of when Nellie is watching her, and I never have to worry. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.
Nellie has watched my 3 cats twice now, and both times she was a great sitter for the boys! Nellie was very communicative and sent daily photos and updates while I was on vacation. It doesn’t hurt that she’s a professional photographer, the pictures we got of the cats were all so amazing! She had no issues dealing with 2 of the boys that are very picky eaters, or trouble shooting the Litter Robot when it had an error message. Nellie left the apartment clean and the boys were all so chill when we got back. I definitely recomend Nellie for a pet sitter!
Nellie is an outstanding pet caregiver who possesses a natural affinity for animals. Her genuine love and compassion shine through in every interaction with pets under her care. With Nellie, you can rest assured that your furry companions will receive the utmost attention, affection, and responsible care. From regular walks to playtime and cuddles, she goes above and beyond to meet the individual needs of each pet. Nellie's reliability, attentiveness, and dedication make her the ideal choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. I wholeheartedly recommend Nellie to anyone looking for peace of mind and exceptional care for their beloved pets.
