About: Growing up, I've always been around dogs. I've got the skills to care for them at every stage of life, from puppyhood to their senior years. Making their meals, keeping them clean, and going on fun walks are all in my wheelhouse. Dogs and I share a unique connection, and I cherish every moment spent in their company. My approach blends merriment with safety during our strolls, and I'm well-versed in tidying up after their outdoor adventures. Your canine companions are sure to have a tail-wagging good time under my watchful care! 🐾 I work remotely mondays and Fridays so I am free to to watch your pets throughout the weekends! I also can watch them during the week and give them potty breaks and walks before I leave for work and once I get back! I have a friendly 3 year old German Shepard who loves to play! My apartment also has a fenced dog playground so you puppy will get to meet and play with other dogs.
“Katie did a wonderful job with drop in visits with my cat. She was on time every day and followed the directions I left for her. I’m very pleased with the care my cat received.”
About: I have taken care of my two small dogs since I was eight years old after years of begging for one. I love all dogs and understand each one has their own special needs, since my dogs each need different foods, toys, and levels of attention. I am available for night time walks and most every weekend. I know how picky I am about who takes care of my dogs when I travel so I know what it takes to be a trustful, caring pet sitter who will put you at ease of mine when you're away. I am very responsible and will make sure that your dog's care is a priority and that all of their needs are met. I’ve walked and sat for all different types of dogs while living in NYC and have a wide range of experience whether that be hyperactive dogs who need to get their energy out or senior dogs who need a little extra care. I am currently working 9-5 during the week so I am available for any nightly walks or checks in and on the weekends! The weekends I have more flexibility and am available to dog sit or for walks! I have an apartment that is safe for any pet and am a short walk to multiple parks and dog parks! I also am available to stay in a clients home and would respect any rules you have for your pets and your home, as I know how much trust is placed in a pet caregiver. I will make sure to meticulously follow any eating, sleeping, and cleaning habits for the dogs and will respect any home.
About: I’ve owned dogs almost my entire life and I have a love for all breeds and sizes. I'm reliable, punctual, and always ensure your furry friend gets plenty of exercise and attention during their walks. I also offer drop-in visits for potty breaks and playtime. I’m currently working fully remote, allowing for flexibility, and adjusting my calendar daily. I love my daily walks after work so why not have a pup with me? Currently no dogs at home and excited to love yours like my own! I can easily crate your dogs and accommodate to their specific needs.
“This is my third time having Jillian watch Kitty. She has been an absolute life saver. Thank you so much for all the love and care you give Kitty. We appreciate you so much!”
About: All pets deserve special attention. I can provide that and more using my years of experience at animals shelters. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, bathe, administer meds, and train their pets. My specialty is the love and attention I give to animals. Most importantly, I treat every pet as my own. If you need special care or instruction, I will ensure it is done right and with detail. I’m currently a full time graduate student, but I have a passion for caring for animals, so I wanted to do something in my spare time related to that. I can visit mostly week nights and most weekends. I think a typical in-home visit would take about 30 minutes to an hour depending on the pet. I like to spend extra time with the animals so they can get to know me. Feeding and potty are pretty straightforward as well as cuddle and play time. I have a pretty large space at my home and can separate animals so I am open to boarding, however, I have to prioritize the health and safety of my current pets so it would only be available in certain circumstances.
“Marvin was great with our dogs (Lab and Pitbull). He took on our booking last minute and is very responsive. He sent us great pictures and I can tell our two pups loved spending time with him!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I grew up with a dog and later a cat. I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for over a decade. Most recently I cared for 3 dogs and 2-7 cats all at once for several days each week for over a year. I’ve always loved animals, and I’m happy to help anyone who needs an extra hand caring for theirs. I work evenings, leaving my days open for pet care. I will generally be available between 10am and 2-3pm on days that I work, Tuesday-Saturday, and will sometimes be available Sunday and Monday as well. I am a caring and patient sitter who excels in earning the trust and love of animals. I’m quite often the favorite of my friends’ and family’s pets, and have never met an animal who didn’t learn to trust me.
“Richard did an excellent job taking care of my cat. He provided detailed updates, pictures, and was very responsive. I would trust him to care for my cat any time and look forward to booking with him again.”
About: I have had pets my whole life and have always enjoyed the responsibility of caring for them. I’ve been lucky enough to be a pet mom to 5 dogs throughout my life spanning from childhood to present day. After raising our two children, my professional chef husband and I find ourselves empty-nesters with a lot of time on our hands! Adding to that, I decided to take a step away from my corporate VP position, thus adding to my uncharted territory of having additional time on my hands!! I am a pet mom to two rescue babies: an 82 pound Golden Doodle boy and a 12 pound Maltese/Terrier girl. You can find us taking long walks around our neighborhood, enjoying the dog park near the intracoastal and swimming in our backyard pool. But, honestly, our favorite activities are belly rubs and cuddling! I currently stepped away from my corporate VP job; therefore, my days/evenings are wide open!! I also have the ability to stay over in your home since my husband is home to care for our pet babies! Like they are my own!!! Actually, I think it’s very important to listen to your clients regarding how they like their pets to be cared for. As a former teacher, and then corporate leader, I know each pet parent is different, each pet unique, just like a child! I feel adhering to pets parents’ wishes as well as being instinctually attuned to watch for a listen to the pet for feedback is the key to proper care.
About: I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. With experience caring for animals of all ages, I’m comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies who need training reinforcement to senior pets requiring gentle care and medication administration. I pay close attention to routines, ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s engaging playtime, maintaining feeding schedules, or keeping litter boxes and living areas spotless, I go the extra mile to ensure happy, healthy pets. I’m currently working a part time job and currently in school majoring in Education. I am Free Thursday-Sunday to take care of your loved one. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensuring they feel secure and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space while maintaining a clean, pet-friendly environment. I also monitor pets for any signs of stress or illness and provide updates to keep owners reassured. Safety is my top priority—I use secure leashes, keep toxic foods and items out of reach, and ensure a hazard-free space so pets can relax and enjoy their time with me.
