Jornelle watched our dog and house for two weeks while we were out of the country. She did a great job taking care of our dog and our house. She was extremely communicative with us and even cared enough to take our dog to her family’s Thanksgiving (after consulting with us) so our dog wouldn’t be left alone for too long. Would recommend!

Christine did a fantastic job watching my and my parents dogs for the day. Our dog is a chill little senior dog, but my parents dogs are big Weimaraners. One of their dogs tends to be reactive with other dogs, and even with that challenge, Christine kept all the dogs happy and relaxed while we were out. We especially love that she gave us updates and photos throughout the day, so we knew we didn’t have to worry about anything.

Ariel is fantastic! Had peace of mind leaving my dog with her. My dog absolutely loved staying with her! Received daily pictures and had efficient communication. She gave frequent walks and went above and beyond to make my dog feel at home and comfortable! She also made sure to follow my dog’s feeding and walking schedule. Highly recommend, you won’t regret it!

About: For as long as I could remember I always had a gravitational pull to dogs. I have been caring for a dog practically since I was born whether it was a dog of a family or friend or even my own. My family and I first became dog owner ourselves when I was 6 for a couple months. We then cared for another dog when I was 10 for almost 8 years til his unfortunate passing. Then we were blessed with another dog that we now have had for 7 years and still care for today. I am hoping to spread my love and care to other dogs for other dog owners as well. As of right now, I currently have open availability due to working other part-time jobs that gives me the flexibility to expand my horizons in other occupations. I am committed to tend to any and every dog by making sure he has a sustainable amount of food and water every couple hours throughout the day. I also make sure to walk him at least twice a day or more. I am of course open to any instructions given by dog owner and will abide by any rules necessary.

About: —PSA— I just added a new service! 🫡🙌🏽 I will now be doing House Sitting ✅ I have some experience in a professional setting as I was a PT Vet assistant. From surgical procedures to caring after surgery. I loved working with the animals. I'm currently focusing on doing Rover part time, as I am a full-time student. So, it won't be a problem taking care of your furry pets. I will treat your pet like it's my own child. I believe all dogs are man's best friend, who have feelings just like all of us.

About: I started doing this for a friend that was going on vacation. I spoil Molly & treat her like I want mine to be care. I do this as a part time, I work from home, have my own routine. Like to be call three days in advance before you need my service. I don’t bring pet to my house, I believe is better not taking them out of their homes. I always treat them great. They are my baby pets.

If you want someone who will treat your pets with the same care and love as you, Varshini is your person. Whenever I've had to leave town, I can always count on her to step in and take care of my fur baby as if she were her own. Varshini is reliable, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with pets. Her dedication to providing safe, timely, and loving care is unparalleled and her attention to detail is remarkable – whether it's a leisurely stroll in the park or a cozy day at home. Varshini goes above and beyond to ensure that every pet feels happy and comfortable and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to leave their pets in the best hands possible!

About: Hi! Thanks for stopping by to check out my profile. I love animals of all kinds. I’ve had dogs and cats, as pets, my entire life. In my 20s, I took up volunteer, foster and rescue work with cats and dogs. I’ve been told I have a very calming and soothing effect on little ones that aren’t feeling well or have anxiety concerns. I’ve trained several of my own pets - dogs and cats - and I’ve taken several courses on animal behavior and training. I don’t pet sit as a “side hustle.” If I spend time with your cute kitty or your pawsome pup, it’s because animals bring me great joy. I want to do the same for your furry little one. Do what you need to do. Your little one will be safe, sound and pampered with me. I'm available for boarding, daycare, or training, for dogs or cats, in my home or yours. Let's do a meet and greet and get to know each other. I live in my own house, in Harrison, just a short train ride away from NYC. The door to my living room opens up to my safe and private backyard. It’s ideal for the puppy that just can’t wait to get outside. Because it’s just me, you can rest assured that your baby will get the undivided, one on one attention that they deserve. They will be spoiled, As they should be. I’m available to care for your baby in my home, or in yours. Do you have a training issue that you need help with? Let’s meet!

I have know Arley for quite a while now. He is just a pleasure to be around. He is kind, considerate and respectful to everyone. He is loving to all and loves animals. I have seen him around my niece's golden retriever and he is so gentle and kind to her. Anyone would be very lucky to have him as an employee.
