Pet Sitting Middle Village

About: Hi! My name is Mariana, and I have over 10 years of experience as a pet sitter and dog walker, serving families throughout Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn. Ever since I was a child, I have had a deep love for animals. I am originally from Brazil, where I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, and caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I am a kind, patient, and loving caregiver who treats every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry friend is an energetic puppy who needs extra attention and training reinforcement or a senior pet who requires gentle care and patience, I have the experience to provide a safe, comfortable, and happy environment. My goal is to make sure your pets feel loved, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I love making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I live in a house with a fenced backyard where pets can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. I also have a nearby park for walks and extra exercise if the owner prefers. I am very adaptable and always follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s preferences, whether that means specific feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, or special care instructions. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and at home while providing the level of care their family expects.

“Asher was great with Max and very thorough. I was able to answer any additional questions he needed about his medicine and I just really appreciate the care that he gave to my senior doggy. I worry about Max when I’m not able to be there and it was really important to me that he was cared for while I was out of town thank you again and I would absolutely book Asher again to take care of little Maxy.”

About: At a young age family members asked me to take care of their pets. Fast forward now my sister has relied in me to walk and dog sit her pup. I'm an artist/art-teacher/illustrator/computer- animator. Right now my schedule is pretty flexible. So why not use my free time to do something I enjoy doing and love. Will always respect someone's home and their pet and follow their rules and directions. And will leave a note or message to the owner on how day went.

“Cailey was very responsive and a clear communicator! I felt as if my cat was in good hands. Will hire again!”

“Faith was a great sitter for our cat Molly. Faith came every morning to feed and play with her. She sent us photos every visit, which we loved! Faith was attentive, communicative and went above and beyond during her visits. We trust her and hope to work with her in future! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Raul did an excellent job pet sitting for Gunner. He made sure to follow instructions my husband and I gave him, which gave us a peace of mind. When something wasn’t completely clear, he checked in with me, I really appreciated that level of communication and care. It’s safe to say he’s doing a great job getting to know both us and Gunner, and we feel comfortable trusting him with our dog. Highly recommend!”

“Vanessa took great care of our cat Teddy while we were away. We appreciated her questions in our meet and greet and her attention to detail in his care. Teddy misses her already!”

You’ll receive photo updates and detailed visit summaries after every visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving reliable, compassionate care. I’m currently a Physical Therapist Assistant student, and when I’m not in class, I dedicate my time to caring for pets.

Every visit includes GPS check-ins, photos, and detailed updates, so you can feel confident your pet is happy, comfortable, and in good hands.

“Christian was very patient and reliable, taking proper care of my dog during drop-in visits! Having him was a lifesaver!”

“This was my first time using Rover and having someone other than a friend or family watch my 13 year old cat; Arli absolutely took care of my girl just like she was a close friend or family. My cat was in her trust for almost 2 weeks and everyday I got several photos and she was always very quick to respond about anything. I travel for work for long periods at a time and truly felt more at ease with my cat in Arli’s care. I can tell from the photos that she’s a true cat person! When I finally got home my place felt better than I left it and my cat’s space was as well taken care of. My cat also didn’t seem in distress when I finally got home after the long trip- a true sign she was well loved and taken care of. I will absolutely be booking Arli again!”

“First time having a ca sitter who wasn’t a personal friend and they put me at ease with the whole thing. Very kind but still professional and my cat instantly got along with them which was great!”

About: Hi, my name is Erik! I have worked for local businesses (As well as Wag so I have a bit of app experience too) walking, training, boarding, and sitting dogs for a little over 7 years now. I love animals, being outside, and meeting new pups. Located in Bushwick, I'm a quick bike ride away from Williamsburg, Bed Stuy, Ridgewood, etc. I have no problem taking the train to further neighborhoods as well. I've lived in New York for a 11 years now so navigating around the city is no issue. I was raised in a animal loving house and couldn't be happier working with the them. I'm a jack of all trades and a big worker. I love the freedom of setting my own schedule and being outside getting my steps in. I get down to their level and let them inspect/smell me. I tend to pass the sniff test. I don't mind taking the time to wait until the pup is comfortable before going on our walk.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She took such wonderful care of my dogs and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she treated them like their own, making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was great throughout, and I really appreciated the detailed updates. I came home to two very happy pups, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!”

About: Hi, I'm Maria a pet-friendly and responsible caregiver with experience caring for my own pets, my uncle’s dogs and my neighbor senior dog. I’m very careful and attentive with their well-being, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With an extroverted, kind, and trustworthy personality, I build great connections with both pets and their owners. Some of my skills are: * Daily feeding & maintaining routines * Walking & exercise for active care * Attentive supervision & affection I'm currently working part time since I'm in college my free days are monday and friday all day so I can properly take care of your pet. I live in a cozy basement apartment with direct access to a fenced backyard, perfect for safe play and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy supervised outdoor time, comfort indoors, and lots of affection. Whether at my home or a client’s, I’m careful, attentive, and committed to keeping pets happy and secure.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intuition I bring to every animal I work with. I’m not just a sitter—I genuinely understand dogs on a deeper level. I’ve helped deliver puppies, cared for senior dogs with patience and attention to their changing needs, and I have hands-on experience rehabilitating abused and neglected animals. That means I’m calm, observant, and able to read behavior quickly—whether it’s a nervous rescue or an energetic puppy still learning boundaries. I’m especially comfortable with puppies (potty training, basic commands, structure) and senior dogs who need a slower pace, medication, or extra comfort. I also naturally go above and beyond—whether that’s making sure routines are followed closely, giving extra affection, or keeping a close eye on subtle changes in behavior or health. Outside of sitting, caring for animals is just part of who I am. I regularly feed and look out for stray animals, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be understood, protected, and genuinely cared for. As an only child, I’ve always found a deep sense of comfort and connection in caring for dogs. Being able to meet their needs, earn their trust, and give them love brings me a genuine sense of purpose and fulfillment. It’s something that feels natural to me, and it’s a big part of why I’m so dedicated to the care I provide. I have a large, fully fenced yard with low grass, which creates a safe and comfortable space for dogs to walk, play, run, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time.

About: I’m a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience working at a dog daycare, caring for my own pets, and rescuing animals in need. I’ve worked with a variety of animals and love getting to know each of their unique personalities. I’m attentive, patient, and playful, and I always take the time to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for. Whether it’s active play, a calm walk, or just keeping them company, I treat every animal like they’re my own. Caring for animals is part of my everyday life, from daily walks and feeding to making time for play and attention. I naturally build my routine around pets’ needs, so they always receive consistent, reliable care. I care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes by keeping their routines consistent, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. I offer boarding, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets as long as they’re a good match. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and attentive environment, and I always send photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I've had cats and dogs all my life. My family adores animals, and your pet will receive lots of love and attention from our household (my husband and I as well as our two college aged children). We recently lost our dog of 12 years and are looking to fill that hole with the time spent with your fur baby. I have a private fenced yard and there is a park on the corner of my home. I will manage all your pet's needs. I work part time 5 minutes from home. There will be at least 3 walks a day and lots of attention. FYI there is usually a family member home at all times. Pets are allowed on furniture. I will follow your regimen and provide videos and photos of your pet. I only want to service one to two pets at a time. There are no young children in our home.
