About: IMPORTANT NOTE: After my mother and sister faced an emergency, I’m trying my best to raise funds for them. Any help is appreciated and I’m happy to work out details once booked. I’m free most days before 11am and after 2:30pm. I can handle a pet with a med regimen! I currently own 4 cats and 1 adorable little dachshund — My family and I also have a ton of experience fostering kittens. We used to do it when finding strays in our neighborhood, so caring for hyper animals has become a bit of a speciality. Dog size doesn’t matter to me and won’t increase my rate — Everyone gets the same excellent care for an affordable price! Direct communication is very important to me. Having been kept in the dark by pet sitters before, I make sure to send clients frequent updates and photos so that they know their little ones are in a safe and secure environment! NOTE: Your dog not being potty trained isn’t an issue for me and I won’t charge extra for that! I’m an active college student, which means my schedule is a little tight on certain days. I can pet sit any day of the week as long as you’re comfortable with me having to leave for a few hours to complete courses. For drop-ins, I can visit any time after 4:30pm Monday-Wednesday. My schedule is extremely flexible Thursday-Sunday. I can easily put dogs in their crates as long as they’re well trained + am experienced in giving pets medications they may need. An animal having a special diet is something I’m very used — As long as I’m given clear details, I can ensure your pet gets everything they need!
“Second time of many having Chris help us out with our puppy! We booked him for house sitting while we enjoyed a night off. We always have peace of mind having him puppy sit knowing he can handle all the energy our pup throws at him.”

My name is Jasmine a lifelong animal lover with over 16 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities.

Clients describe me as sweet, responsible, and responsive, and I’m so grateful to be part of the lives of the animals I care for. Id love to meet your best friend! Lets Connect 💕🐾 Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine because animals are a big part of my life.

“It was amazing! Adriana stayed at our place with Pelusa for ten days. We came back and Pelusa was happier than ever, in perfect shape, active, spectacular. Pelusa is a very demanding border collie, and it demands both physical and mental activity. Adriana was up to the task. She also kept us updated with pics and asked us if she had any question. She was sweet and caring with Pelusa and you could tell from his reaction when she came back to return the keys. A great experience, couldn't recommend her more. Thanks! ¡Mil gracias!”

About: More than just a sitter, I am your pet’s official companion, dedicated to giving them love, attention, play, and well-being every day in a reliable way. My time is dedicated to caring for, accompanying, and playing with your puppies. I offer a flexible schedule to look after them and give them playtime whenever they need it.

About: I love taking care of puppies and kittens. I know how to administer medications and help raise/train them when needed. I practice fear-free and I am very patient. Working in the vet field has made me learn to be more careful and kind to animals. I currently am a student, studying Veterinary Technology and the program is online. I have two cats and a dog that I care of with my significant other! My availability is Sunday through Thursdays as of right now to be able to study for school the other two days. The services I am able to provide will solely be with me! I have experience as a Veterinary Assistant and I also have a degree in Psychology so I work well with both pets and parents. I am very patient and empathetic, and I want all parties to be happy. I am able to provide dog walks, (cat walks too if your cat likes that), drop in visits, and house sitting (hours include 11am to 12am - if accommodations are needed I am more than happy to discuss!) I travel between locations, so the boroughs I can travel to are Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens at the moment! To ensure safety for all parties, I always usually doggy/cat proof furniture, table tops or any surfaces that can be jumped on, and making sure all toys and pieces are accounted for. If there are any doggy doors or cat nooks present in the house, I will be on the lookout for any activity that may seem cautionary.

Nouni took great care of my two pups at our home while we were away. She was very responsive to our texts and had no issues administering my boy Lino’s daily eye medication. They enjoyed their walks, and even though there was snow everywhere, they were walked daily, fed properly, and had a great time with her👏🏽 Definitely recommend her!

Regina was such a thoughtful, caring, and attentive sitter for our two cats. She sent pictures and video clips every day, and let us video call them when she could sense they missed us. She was considerate and kind, and I loved that she created a genuine connection with our babies, so much so that she will miss them. I highly recommend working with Regina. Thank you for making our week-long vacation worry-free!

Catherine was great!! She stayed over Thanksgiving break to watch our cats and they had a great time with her. She also went above and beyond to clean our apartment before we came back. We came home to relaxed, happy cats and a clean home, which makes traveling much less stressful. Would highly recommend her to watch anyone’s pets!

Sidney was the BEST petsitter!! She was super communicative and sent us detailed summaries of her day with the pets with lots of photos. She easily put up with Bobby and Millie's little quirks and they seemed to warm to her very quickly. We did not feel like we needed to worry at all while we were on vacation and could totally relax. I would rebook Sidney in a heartbeat!! Thanks again Sidney

Our pups had another great visit with Jordan! He continues to be such a help as we settle in our foster dog with our dog. He took the dogs on separate walks and also together based on how they were interacting, which we appreciated. Also really appreciate his communication style and his proactive approach to caring for our dogs.

Brae was great with our dog and house while our family was away for the week. She went on long walks with him, played fetch in the backyard and gave him lots of attention which he loved! She communicated daily and sent plenty of pictures and videos which the kids all loved to see and watch and she was very responsive to our texts. She also took care of our guinea pig. We would definitely recommend her and hire her again.

Janet is wonderful! I can’t recommend her enough. She watched my two dogs over the weekend and I felt at ease the entire time! She sent lots of photos and videos. She left the house in perfect condition and the dogs absolutely loved her! Really, she went over and beyond in every way. I will 100% be using her in the future. Thank you Janet!!
