House Sitting in Merrick

“When we got home, Rocky said he had a great time! All joking aside, Emily was extremely easy to work with. We had great communication and didn’t worry about anything. We felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She even sent some photos which was very thoughtful. She accommodated all our requests and we were extremely happy. Rocky can’t wait for us to go away again! We will be using her again, and highly recommend her for her services.”

About: Hi, I’m Alec. I provide dog walking, drop-ins, and house sitting with a focus on reliability, communication, and genuine care. Certified in pet cpr, I take the time to understand your dog’s routine, needs, and personality so they feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. I always offer a meet-and-greet so your dog can get to know me first. During visits, I keep everything consistent — walks, feeding, play, and any medication your pet needs. I also send clear updates with photos and videos so you stay informed and never feel stressed about how your pet is doing. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my priority. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup. Being a travel agent gives me a flexible schedule, allowing me to care for pets throughout the day while working remotely from anywhere — home or on the go. I make sure my pets get plenty of love and attention every day. Between walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping them active, they’re always happy, healthy, and cared for.

“Chaira was excellent. Took such good care of my two babies Trixie and Max. She sent allot of pictures and text with any questions she had. Made my trip so much better knowing they were well cared for. Definitely recommend!!”

About: Growing up we always had dogs in the house, from Chihuahuas to Labradors and I am the current proud parent to two cats! I have been a pet sitter for friends and family many times and I’m happy to give your pets the love and attention they need. I am working full-time Monday to Friday but I have relatively flexible hours and I am usually free on weekends. Evenings I am generally available. I’m committed to caring for your pet’s needs and will give them the same loving care I give all the animals in my life! I want your pets to be comfortable, happy, and safe. I am comfortable picking up your routine so you can be worry free.

“Natasha stayed overnight to watch our dog on our wedding night. She made the whole process easy, sent photos and updates and was great! Our dog loved her right away at the first meet and greet. This was our first experience with a dog sitter and we had full confidence in her and would recommend to others! Thanks Natasha!”

About: Having a cat has taught me proper boundaries for an animal. I love the care involved in relationships and the different personalities I meet with different pets and their owners. I am responsible, and I can discipline when necessary. My background in science gives me a good understanding of health tips to be aware of. I’m currently working part-time as a student, but my hours are very flexible. I would love to spend my free time helping out other pet owners. I can work odd hours in the evening as well if necessary. The proper balance between care, love, playtime, and their own space is key. I have plenty of love and energy to spare for animals. I can play with them outdoors or inside, feed them in whatever way works for their routine, and give them the necessary space they require if they feel uncomfortable or overstimulated. Of course I can give them un-ending pets and love when they want it.

About: I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages, but I have the most experience with caring for adolescent to senior dogs. I have experience administering medication if necessary, and adhering to special diets per veterinary instruction. Pet care is my main job! I am fully dedicated to taking care your furry friend(s) and I'm fully available to meet you beforehand to ensure we're a good team! I am more than happy to spend time with your pet, whether that means playing, feeding, or just hanging out. Your fur baby will be safe and in great hands!

“Michelle has house sat for us twice. She’s very communicative, organized and very considerate of our 2 cats and 2 dogs. Our dogs are rescues who require regular medications and are high maintenance. Michelle did a great job and we are grateful!”

About: Hi! I’m Alexa! I’m a student, a dog lover and future teacher. I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s grown up surrounded by pups—currently have 4. I take care of my own dogs, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry bestie.I treat every dog I meet like my own. I’ve experienced all stages—from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m currently a student and student teaching. My schedule is pretty flexible you may reach out and ask questions. Weekends usually always available. Weekdays I work until about 330pm, off for most holidays. Since my home is already full with my own four dogs, I don’t offer care at my place. Instead, I can care for pets in the comfort of their own home or take for walks when needed.

“Ali went beyond our expectations as a sitter. She was wonderful and we are so grateful she was able to stay with our pups over the Thanksgiving holiday. Our pups were in great spirits upon our return and our home was looking great. I would strongly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking again! Thank you Ali!!”

“Julina was great! She was very responsive, sent lots of updates, and helped make our first experience with Rover a positive one. When she asked if our new dog would be interested in playing and learning from her dog, Loki, we jumped at the chance. They played so well together and our dog came out of his shell. We'll be calling on Julina (and Loki) again.”

About: I genuinely love animals and have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have a 4-year-old adopted cat and an 8-year-old dog, so I understand different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, administering routines, and providing lots of affection. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’m flexible and reliable, and I make sure to plan my day around the pets’ needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m happy to provide consistent care during weekdays and weekends, and I always prioritize quality time and attention for every pet. I provide a calm, loving, and safe environment for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I carefully follow instructions regarding feeding, routines, and any special needs. I’m very attentive to behavior, comfort, and safety at all times. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel secure, respected, and well cared for. Communication and trust with pet parents are very important to me.
