Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving and reliable care.
*I only take one pet at a time for boarding and day care (two if they are in the same family). For additional pets, please inquire. My rates are firm and reflect the level of care I will provide* I know the feeling of never wanting to leave your fur baby behind. Wherever I went, if I couldn’t take my pets with me, then I would rather not go at all. But sometimes when work calls or when you simply need a little “me” time, we need help from someone we can trust to love and care for our pets while we’re away. I would love to be that person for you! My pet care experience comes from working at and caring for shelter animals, caring for stray cats, fostering cats and dogs, and loving my own beloved pets (My two dogs that have since passed - Terri, 18, Maple, 12, and cat - August, 4). I’m fear-free certified and have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs (especially cushings, CHF, CCD). I can help with giving oral medications and am open to assisting with other needs if you’re willing to teach. If your pet knows any commands or is in training, I’m happy to help reinforce their skills too (just let me know!). In addition to my experience above, I was also featured on NY1’s New Yorker of the week segment for my volunteer work at Animal Haven, an animal shelter based in Manhattan. My home is super senior-dog friendly with rugs all around the house so your pups don’t slip, pet oxygen for emergencies, plus strollers for pets with special needs.

Ratings and reviews
Tiffany cared for my three cats - Bubu (my Maine Coon kitten), Oyster (a tuxedo cat with congenital heart issues who requires two medications twice a day), and Cuddles (the sweetest tabby, but very food-motivated and needs to be fed separately because she'll steal everyone else's food) - while I was away on a work trip. Leaving my cats was an incredibly difficult decision, as I had never been away from them before. Thankfully, Tiffany turned out to be the perfect person to care for them. Before the booking even started, Tiffany agreed to visit my home to meet the cats and learn about their routines. She asked thoughtful questions about their personalities, feeding schedules, and Oyster's medications, which immediately gave me confidence that they would be in good hands. Throughout the entire trip, Tiffany was extremely communicative. She kept me updated on each cat's behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and she sent photos and videos during every visit. It was clear that she genuinely cared for them and treated them as if they were her own. I was especially impressed with how she handled Oyster's medications. Anyone who has medicated a cat knows that sometimes they pretend to take their pills only to spit them out later. Tiffany made sure he actually took his medications every time, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. What really stood out was her dedication. One day, Tiffany noticed a wasp in my apartment. Concerned that one of the cats might get stung, she went out of her way to return later that day with a container to safely trap and remove it. She absolutely didn't have to do that, and I greatly appreciated her extra effort and care. Overall, I had an excellent experience with Tiffany and would not hesitate to book her again for future trips. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely loves animals, I highly recommend her.
Tiffany has been a close friend of mine for over 10 years, and we’ve been through countless adventures together. She is one of the most thoughtful, dependable, and trustworthy people I know. She consistently puts others before herself and anticipates needs that many people wouldn’t even think about. The care and compassion she shows to those around her extends to the many animals she has cared for throughout her life—from senior dogs and stray kittens to the animals she worked with at a local shelter. She puts her whole heart into everything she does, and I can say without hesitation that your pets will be in loving, capable hands with her.
I have known Tiffany for about 10 years and she is the most kind and attentive person I know, and luckily for the world, she has a deep love and affection for dogs. Tiffany always strives to take care of others and volunteered for years at an animal shelter where she adopted her first dog, a senior dog with health issues that most people would have never thought about adopting. Her dog Terri lived for many years because of the homemade food Tiffany made for her everyday and the care she took in her healthcare and exercise, making sure she had everything she needed to be healthy and comfortable. When Tiffany came to visit me she always spent hours playing with my roommate's dog and showered her in love and affection. Tiffany has many years of experience caring and loving for her own dogs and dogs in the shelter where she volunteered. She is not only qualified to be a caregiver for someone's beloved pet, but is also a fantastic choice because she will make sure any dog under her care is taken care for and loved.
This is our first time using Tiffany what a sweetheart she is. We did meet and greet amd she was great with bubba. He took to her almost immediately. We will definitely be using her foi g forward

I’ve known her for over 15 years, and she is one of the most trustworthy and reliable people I know. She has an incredible heart for animals and spends countless hours volunteering at shelters, fostering pets, and caring for strays—especially during harsh winters when she sets up shelters and feeding stations. She has adopted three pets of her own and has a special passion for caring for senior animals, always taking the time to understand their needs. She has also rescued strays in need of medical care without hesitation. When I first got my cat, she was an amazing source of guidance and support. She’s a thoughtful listener, a great problem solver, and someone who truly goes above and beyond to care for every animal she meets. I would trust her completely with any pet.
I am the volunteer coordinator for Puppy Kitty NYCity. I had the pleasure of working with Tiffany through her volunteer work with our rescue. She is consistently one of the most dependable people on our team. She is always punctual, communicative, and incredibly attentive to the animals in her care. Tiffany doesn’t just complete tasks, she builds genuine bonds with the cats and treats each one like her own. She is patient with shy animals, gentle with nervous ones, and fully present with all of them. I would trust her without hesitation to care for any pet.

Schedule
I work remote and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I offer pet day care, house sitting, and boarding. Please see my calendar for availability. HOUSE SITTING - overnight stays in your home DROP INS - 30 minutes and I’ll do whatever is needed in that time. This could be a combination of feeding, meds, walking, indoor playtime, etc. WALKS - 30 minutes, strictly outdoors walking, ideal for high-energy, active dogs. BOARDING - Your dog stays overnight at my place. I do a minimum of 2-4 walks a day, depending on your dogs needs. Owners must provide food for their pets, but I can also accommodate for an added fee of $5 per day (includes treats/meals). Please ask about food options and provide allergy info + food preferences if interested in that service. DAY CARE - Drop off for day care is between 7-9am and pick up is between 4-6pm.

Safety, trust & environment
I will love and care for your pet the way you do for them. I treat every animal I care for like family, providing patience, space, and extra attention as needed. I’m super safety conscious and keen on details, so if there are any particular habits, routines, or schedules you’d like me to follow, if your pet is trained or undergoing training and there’s anything you want me to reinforce, or if your pet has special needs and requires special care, please reach out to me with those details. I am always willing and more than happy to work with you to make sure they are cared for and to give you peace of mind. Rest assured, you’ll be getting plenty of updates and photos from me!
Pets
A typical day
I love giving dogs/cats (yes, if your cat is comfortable on walks I can take them out) long walks with plenty of time to sniff and take in their surroundings, but activities will always vary depending on each pets personality and temperament. Sometimes that means more exercise outside or slow and steady walks in a stroller. Typically in addition to walks, I ensure lots of personalized playtime and enrichment activities, including reinforcing any tricks or training. The same applies for cats! I love keeping cats mentally and physically stimulated with playtime, enrichment, and practicing tricks.
