“Kristina is a reliable, thoughtful person. She was awesome with my two dogs and cat. My pets were comfortable in all the pictures she sent me during the two days she spent with them. She truly loves animals… I would definitely have her stay at my house again.”
“Absolutely incredible. I needed a sitter for my pup last minute and Jess went out of her way above and beyond to squeeze in a meet and greet as well as watching my furbaby. Super sweet, punctual, great communication and absolutely love and care for my furbaby. Highly recommend and would definitely rebook with when needed.”
“We went away for 10 days to Portugal, which was the longest we ever have been away from our dogs. Rose made us feel much better with her excellent care. She sent countless updates, pictures, and videos. I can tell my dogs were happy and relaxed. She followed our instructions exactly and left our home exactly how she found it. We will use her again!”
“Andrea watched my pup for a few days while we were out of town. She was absolutely excellent! She shared updates with me throughout the stay and I came home to a happy pup! I would highly recommend contacting Andrea.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a teenager, having family pets growing up and also including watching neighbors’ dogs as well as friends and family members pets over the years. Animals have always warmed up to me immediately, even when described as shy or unfriendly. I work full time but my position has me mobile and traveling to different locations around Long Island throughout the day. This allows me to make stops during the midday for walks. I will also be able to pet sit over night and weekends. I care for all pets as if they were my own. Beyond providing walks and feeding your pet they will also receive attention and affection as well. Along with the utmost care to be aware of drivers and other dogs during walks and to secure any property during overnight visits.
About: Whether it's caring for my hyper-active Golden Retriever, my attitude-giving Tabby Cat, or my reoccurring client's King Charles' Spaniel and English Setters, I'm more than equipped to handle any size dog or cat. I'm used to staying at the pet's home, but willing to be flexible and stop by whenever needed. Fun Facts: Used to caring for horses, barn cats, goats, rabbits, and fish. Taking care of my pets is a huge part of my schedule as I find it's the best way to keep them happy and healthy. Daily walks, even weekly park visits, and lots of cuddles and scratches are all simple ways to keep my kids content and healthy. I make sure my pets are in their respective areas before leaving my home; this ensures that they are in a safe place and have access to any food or water they need. Care varies depending on client's wants/pet's needs, but I am willing to handle a crated pet or free-roaming (as long as they are well adjusted and don't mind strangers).
“Linda was amazing! She helped us out last minute when we couldn’t find anyone else. The dogs really liked her and she was great with them. She updated us with photos and you could tell the dogs were happy. She followed all instructions that we left her and we couldn’t be happier. I will definitely use her in the future and recommend her.”
About: I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes for most of my life, and honestly, I think they’ve raised me more than I’ve raised them. When people say there’s nothing better than a dog, they’re absolutely right unless that dog just ate your sandwich or rolled in something “mysterious” at the park. Still, I’d do anything to give my dogs the best life possible. They've brought me so much joy, unconditional love, and a healthy fear of leaving food unattended. Some of my best memories (and worst carpet stains) have come from having them by my side. Availability: August 17 - August 24 Friday: 7:30 PM – 11:00 PM Saturday: Open Availability Sunday: Open Availability Availability: August 25 - August 31 Friday: 7:30 PM – 11:00 PM Saturday: Open Availability Sunday: Open Availability Available September 1st As a dedicated dog owner, I am always fully aware of my dogs' locations at all times. No matter the service request, I will prioritize their safety above everything else. Their well being is my top priority, and I am committed to ensuring they are secure and protected in every situation.
About: Hi there! My name is Paige, and I’ve never known a life without dogs. Since I was around 6, I’ve been helping out around the house with pet-related chores. My passion and love for animals has shaped me as a human being, and I can’t wait to give your furry best friend all my love. :) I currently work part time, leaving me with lots of free time to care for your furry friend! No need to worry about me cancelling last minute! Ever since I was born, there has been a dog in the house. I was taught at a young age to care for and unconditionally love animals. Your pets safety is of utmost importance to me. When I am taking care of your pet I am alert, aware, and focused.
“Vanessa is a great communicator, personable, punctual, flexible and reliable, all important qualities to this pet dad, leaving his 9 week old puppy, Harry, for the first time. She appeared warm and gentle with this little guy, and it was readily apparent that she has a genuinely caring and positive attitude as well as an ability to follow instructions and take initiative when needed. Harry looked happy and at ease with her, adding to my sense of trust. I will want to use her services again, and can certainly recommend her to others. Bill Y.”

About: I've spent my whole life surrounded by pups and animals. I love having them around & I know how great it feels to come home to a happy dog. I've watched over several of my friends & family dogs/cats as well as fostered dogs for 2 years, and would love to help you feel great about leaving your animal home while work or need some time out! I currently work remote and am therefore pretty flexible as long as there is wifi.. I can stay how ever long is needed and/or visit as often as you'd like! I'd be willing to care for pets at the client's home, up to the parent's wishes. I can play with them outside, take them on long walks, keep them company, whatever makes the client comfortable.
“Ginia is truly a gift. She takes amazing care of our 3 dogs when we are gone. I never have to worry and can rest easy knowing how much care, compassion and love she puts into caring for them.”
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!
“I can’t say enough good things about Susan. From the moment we met, I trusted her implicitly with Leo—and now, after having her care for him, I appreciate her even more. She’s a sweet, nurturing soul who made sure both Leo’s needs and mine were fully met. Before I left, she took the time to gather every bit of information she might need and showed real concern and empathy, especially when I shared my worries about Leo’s age. While I was away, she stayed in touch, sending thoughtful updates and photos that clearly showed how much she loved and saw my cat for the special, personable little being he is. Knowing he was being kissed and adored made my absence much easier. Susan was also incredibly flexible with my shifting schedule—never once making me feel bad about the changes. And her kindness didn’t stop with Leo. She brought cookies from a local lemonade stand to support the neighborhood kids, left some for me, and baked me her own dark chocolate cookies (which were absolutely delicious). She nurtured me as much as she did Leo. When I came home, Leo was calm, content, and clearly well-loved. Susan is a rare and gentle soul—empathetic, attentive, and genuine. I feel so lucky to have found her.”
