Pet Sitting Murray Hill

About: I've grown up with dogs and have experience in taking care of many breeds including German Shepherds, Dobermans, Labradors, Golden Retreivers, Bernedoodles Labradoodles, Rat Terriers, Beagles, and Chihuahuas. I'm comfortable with oral medication as well as easing the anxiety of being in a new environment. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. I'm available for pet care in the mornings, evenings after 6pm, and on weekends. I make sure every pet in my care gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, and I'm happy to adjust any feeding schedules, walks, and other daily routines. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and make sure dogs have a calm and secure environment while in my care. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, and routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always provide regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through pet ownership, fostering, and volunteering at an animal shelter. I personally have T1D diabetes so if your pet has it too, I am not afraid to deal with it!! I’m also a Fear Free Shelter Certified and volunteered with AnimalKind, where I learned how to safely interact with animals of different personalities, stress levels, and backgrounds. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to build trust, follow routines carefully, and make sure each animal feels comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm and reliable presence around, I’m happy to provide the care that fits their needs. I’m a Cornell student spending the summer in New York City interning for Weill Cornell Medical Center, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work with owners to find times that fit their pet’s routine. I’m reliable, responsive, and understand the importance of consistency when caring for animals. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Through my Fear Free training and shelter experience, I’ve learned how to recognize signs of stress, respect boundaries, and create positive experiences for animals. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and any special care requests. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Jessica was attentive and very responsible. She was quick at responding and was able to help us last minute!”

Jady T.

“This was our first time leaving our cat with a sitter and it went great. George was extremely responsive at all times and provided updates and lots of photos. Our trip was unexpectedly extended and when we needed an extra drop-in last minute George helped us out immediately.”

Diana L.

“Tatyana helped us feel so comfortable and confident while we were traveling. She sent so many photos of both of our kitties and played with them, while also knowing exactly how to read their cues (one is playful, the other is more anxious and distant). We are so grateful and will definitely ask her to watch them again!!!!”

Maggie C.

“Megan was great, I was surprised my kitten became comfortable with her quickly.”

Mukti G.

“This was my first time using Rover and I was worried about how it would go, but I'm so glad I gave it a try and found Xinyu! She is friendly, positive, and considerate, and really went above what was asked (thank you for taking my packages inside for me..!). Xinyu was diligent with the schedule and followed care instructions to the letter. I would definitely book her again next time I'm out of town. 🖤🐈‍⬛”

Tiffany L.

“Jessie is awesome. Our pup is 16 months old and we’ve been working through some new behavior like being skittish and aggressive with new people. Jessie is clearly knowledgeable about dog behavior and knew we needed to take things slowly. Nutley has definitely warmed up to her quickly.”

Melissa M.

“Natalia was so wonderful with my cat Eliza. Will definitely be using her again the next time I go out of town! Excellent communication and updates. Thank you Natalia!!”

Danielle N.

“Natalia was great with my cat Dante. He has dietary restrictions due to stomach issues and Natalia made sure that he got his food on time. Dante loved playing with her! I highly recommend her! Thank you so much for making our travel stress-free! :)”

Ishika S.

“He was excellent with our pets and went above and beyond what was asked of him. I recommend him as he took care of our pets like they were his own.”

“Kathy took great care of our cat. It was our first weekend away as pet parents and she made it stress-free. She sent lots of photos and gave our kitty a lot of attention & playtime. I greatly appreciated her willingness to coordinate key exchange before/after the stay.”

Alaina M.

“Amazing as always!! My cats love her and she always takes such good care of them. Even my shy cat, who normally hides from everyone but me, comes out to see Victoria. Great communication and very reliable. 10/10 recommend!”

Viviana R.

“Chloe is amazing! Our cat Banu loves her and always enjoys her company. I really appreciate how Chloe sends lots of updates and pictures during her visits, too. Highly recommend having Chloe visit your pets!”

Kifah S.

“Adam is a super experienced cat sitter :) spent a lot of time with my cat and made him very happy. My flight coming back to New York was delayed and I had to message him last minute to see if he’s able to make one extra visit. Adam got back to me in no time and took care of my cat! Both me and my cat are very grateful”

XiWen S.

“Tiffany went above and beyond caring for my puppy Henry. She is reliable, great with little training tips, and stayed over time without hesitation. I will certainly book with Tiffany again!”

Nicole K.

“Stayed longer than the allotted time and took each dog out individually. Followed all our instructions, will definitely come back to her next time we’re out of town.”

Joe & Meg M.

“Angela was a fantastic sitter for my cat Cobra. I had some instructions that were followed perfectly - she even left a sweet little gift for my cat during the holiday season. Angela also sent pictures of my fur baby to me while she dropped in. I would definitely book her again! My cat who was shy was very comfortable around her. Thank you, Angela 😊 from Chloe & Cobra 🐱”
