About: I’ve been caring for my adopted cat, Eggy, for the past four years, and he’s the sweetest part of my life. I’ve also looked after dogs, including a coworker’s dog while their family was away and my aunt and uncle’s senior diabetic dog. I’m patient, dependable, and calm, and I love being outdoors so walks, hikes, and playtime are always a win. In my free time, I enjoy working out, making pottery, and reading. ☀️ I currently work from home full time so my daily schedule is pretty flexible. If needed, I can bring my laptop to work from as long as there is reliable WiFi. When meeting a pet for the first time, I am always aware of my demeanor and make sure to give them the space to approach me when they’re feeling ready. I keep a calm and patient demeanor to build trust with the new pet, and also make sure to find out if they have any favorite toys.

“Elizabeth left our house very tidy and our pets very happy! I really liked that she sent updates and pictures to let us know how everything was going. She answered my questions and check-ins quickly.”


About: Hello I am Lily and I’ve been around pets my whole life! I grew up in NYC with three dachshunds (Dexter, Waffles, and Eloise) and now share my home in Branford with two playful cats (Napoleon,and Josephine). Living with so many pets over the years has taught me how much they mean to their families, and I always treat every animal with the same love and care I give my own, like family. By day, I work as a lawyer, but in the evenings and on weekends I dedicate my time to caring for animals. Whether it’s walking, sitting, or just keeping your pets company, my priority is making sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and flexible with weekend availability. If you’re looking for someone responsible who will treat your pets like their own, I’d love to help! I do have restrictions in the times that I am free to help out. I am a full-time student in my senior year of high school. Therefore, I am only available after-school hours and on weekends to help out. However, if your building is in gramercy, I can help out during my lunch hour since my school is on 22 and Lexington. In addition, I am unable to have pets stay at my apartment, however, I am available to spend the night at the owner's apartment to help out, if necessary. II look forward to hearing from you and to meeting your dog! Care fits into my routine by combining check ins with quality time. Evenings on weekdays and anytime on weekends for feedings, walks, playtime - no matter the length of tome - are all scheduled around my work and personal life to ensure your pet gets the attention, care and companionship it needs. I make sure they feel safe comfortable and loved, giving plenty of attention and love and keep their environment clean and secure by following the owners rules and pets routines when it comes to feedings, bathroom breaks, walks, and playtime. I also communicate with owners regularly to update on how their fur babies are doing.

“Daniella stayed at our house for 2 weeks to take care of our 2y old golden coco. She was amazing both taking care of coco and with our home. She was very communicative and caring. Will definitely look to her for future travels.”


“Paris was such a professional and made our very anxious pup feel safe and relaxed. We came home to a happy dog and a clean home. She provided updates and sent pictures which helped us feel relaxed about being away from our little guy. I am so happy we found such a reliable, kind, professional dogsitter. We will definitely request Paris' help again.”


“Emma was awesome! We had to book a house sitter at the last minute and she was fast to respond to our request. Additionally, she took great care of both of our dogs and house. She is super friendly, great with dogs, and very easy to work with. We will definitely be using her in the future!”


“Lexi took such great care of my dog while I was away. She spoiled him and went above and beyond to make sure everything he needed was done. Lexi also took care of my house and I trusted her to stay in my home with my dog!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 16 years old and volunteered at an animal shelter for a year. My neighbors, family, and friends have always been able to count on me to take care of their pets. I’m currently available after 5:00 PM Monday-Friday and any time on the weekends. I have a full time job, so I’m able to work around it! I am able to come to a client’s house and play with your dog in the yard, or take them for walks, whichever you may prefer!

“Bella has been the absolute greatest sitter for our dog, Winnie. Our poor girl has anxiety whenever we are not around. This was the first time we left her with a sitter, so we were not sure how she would react. Poor Winnie struggled at first when we left and even had some health issues which required medical attention . Bella sprang into action and got her the care she needed and Winnie quickly got better with her love and support. She also kept us updated on her progress daily and sent us great pictures of her which my family really appreciated since we were all worried and missed her. Once Winnie adjusted, Bella became her “person” and Winnie followed her everywhere. When we got home everything was neat and clean and our mail was brought in for us. We really loved using Bella and she will be our go-to sitter for any future trips. We are very lucky to have found her. If you want someone who cares for your pet just like you would, Bella is the best person for this. Winnie looks forward to future care with her!”


“Gillian was AMAZING! It is really difficult to find someone to trust to care for your anxious pet while you are away in your own home. I am so happy we found Gillian, she took amazing care of Koda, sent several pictures and updates while we were gone and spoiled him with attention and tons of walks! I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter. I would also like to mention that the house was spotless when we got back, a really nice bonus!”
