Kayla did daily checks in for my three cats while I was away and everything went perfectly. We met up a few days before, and she sent me updates each day with pictures. She’s an excellent communicator! I look forward to working with her again. Thanks Kayla!

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals. I’ve walked dogs for years and have cared for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. As a former dog grooming assistant, I’ve worked hands-on with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. This experience taught me how to confidently handle shy, energetic, or more challenging pets with patience and care. I’ll treat your animals like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. As a full-time college student without a full-time job, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care. I’m available mornings and evenings, as well as for drop-in visits during the day. This flexibility means I can give your pets the time and attention they deserve while fitting care seamlessly into my routine. In your home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I take the time to understand their unique needs, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, or giving extra love. I always prioritize safety by carefully following your instructions, keeping a close eye on doors, gates, and making sure your pet is happy and secure. You can trust that I’ll treat your home and pets with the same care and respect as I would my own.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets since I was young and I have always loved doing it! I myself have one cat and one dog. I’m working part-time and in school, so I am doing this on the side as an extra source of income as a college student and a way to express my love and passion towards animals. My job is in its slow season for the next couple of months, so my schedule is very open besides classes. I can tend to any needs necessary for your pets. I am willing to go above and beyond to meet your animals needs and make sure they are comfortable when being in my care, and I will always let you know if they are not.

About: Apart from being a people person, I love animals too! The connection we feel with our pets is unconditional love. I have open and efficient communication with a fun personality! I currently work full time, Monday through Friday, with an hour lunch break in Farmingdale, NY. I could always squeeze a walk or visit into my lunch break. I reside in Northport, NY; one of the most dog loving towns in Long Island! I am available for pet sitting in your home Friday evenings through Saturday, Sunday, and Mondays (that is when I work remotely). I have a fenced in yard with about an acre of land. I can crate a dog if necessary. I can reinforce positive behavior with treats, praise, and lots of love!

About: As a dog sitter, I’m responsible, caring and attentive to each dogs needs. I follow our owners instructions carefully, ensuring proper feeding, exercise, and medication if needed. I keep owners updated with regular check-ins and photos. Most importantly, I truly love dogs and treat each one with kindness and respect ensuring they are happy and well cared for when in my care. Pet care is my full-time job, so it’s a big part of my daily and weekly routine. My schedule allows plenty of time to walk, feed, and play with your dog, making sure they get the attention and care they need. We live in a home with a large fenced in backyard. We have a dog of our own - a friendly, small mixed breed rescue.

About: I've taken care of friends, family, and neighbors dogs for years. I have experience walking, feeding, and generally taking care of a variety of dogs. I'm currently a student in college, so weekends are always totally open! I am available for nights on weekdays, and before 10am M, W, and F, but it is difficult to reflect that in the calendar so I have put it here instead! I love taking dogs on long walks, caring for them in general, feeding them, and always always treat them like they are my own baby!

Heather is amazing. This is the second time we have used her services and this time to dog sit as well as cat sit. Our dogs can take a second to warm up to people but she did a great job! The communication is always quick and I would continue to trust her to look after our animals!

About: My dog Winnie is 17, so I’ve had lots of experience as a pet carer! Even though Winnie is a small dog, I have experience pet sitting and walking large dogs. I also love cats and have welcomed them into my home to cat sit over the last several years. I work as an independent artist and bartender, so I have a flexible schedule that gives me availability to take care of your furry friend or feline when you’re working! I am available morning, evening and night on weekdays and morning and afternoons on the weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet by following their routine closely and giving them plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s pet, and I treat every animal with patience, responsibility, and love.

About: I grew up with dogs all my life, from puppies to seniors I always made sure they always had the best dog life to live. It is important to always be flexible for your fur babies because they are just as unpredictable as humans are. I always make sure to always be attentive to their needs and never neglect them when they need you the most. Dogs as they get older develop their own routines themselves and will make sure their humans are aware of it too which is important to always pay attention. I care for the pets in my home and others by always respecting their boundaries and always making sure they are comfortable and safe first.

About: I provide thoughtful, full-time, in-home care where your dog is treated like part of the family, not just supervised. I’m home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, flexible routines, and individualized care based on your dog’s personality and needs. I work especially well with dogs who benefit from a thoughtful approach— whether that’s high-energy pups who need engagement, shy dogs who need time to warm up, or seniors who need a slower, more gentle pace. My focus is always on helping each dog feel safe, settled, and understood while they’re away from home. My space is designed with safety and comfort in mind. I have a large fully fenced yard and take introductions slowly and intentionally with my dog, Winny, who is a playful, happy companion and often helps visiting dogs feel more relaxed and at ease. I create an environment where each dog can settle in at their own pace. I keep my bookings limited so each dog receives the attention and care they deserve— this is not a high-volume setup. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I also offer flexible scheduling and optional pickup/drop-off within a reasonable distance to make travel days as smooth and stress-free as possible. I’m home all day and can be very flexible with schedules, feeding times, walks, and routines. This allows me to give each pet plenty of attention, enrichment, and reassurance throughout the day so they always feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away Your peace of mind and your pet’s safety and emotional wellbeing always come first. For this reason I send daily updates with photos/video so you can be at ease knowing your baby is being well taken care of. When caring for pets in my space, I have a fully fenced yard and a built in playmate. I do very slow, supervised introductions with my own dog, Winny, who is a very playful, happy girl. If either dog prefers space, I can easily accommodate comfortably separating the pups as needed both indoor and outdoors.

Donald is very reliable! When I realized my 4 month old puppy needed a different schedule than I thought he adjusted the time he came and added an extra drop in a day to make sure our girl was well taken care of. He is always on time, and gives our puppy his full attention. I think they are going to be best friends quick. Will definitely continue to work with Donald. It is a big relief knowing she’s taken care of while I’m at work.
