Cat Sitting in Oakland Gardens

“Lawrence has excellent communication, punctuality, and, most importantly, tact. My cat is very shy and doesn’t take to new people easily. Lawrence understands boundaries and took care of my cat without being invasive to his space. I couldn’t ask for a more thoughtful pet sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Michelle was a wonderful guardian for Asher while we were away on vacation. Her videos and photos gave us a lot of reassurance for our first time leaving him home over an extended period. We are so appreciative of all the work she puts in!”

“Sylvia cat sat for us for a few days and she always stayed way past her 30 minutes drop in visit time. She is very thorough. She gave our 2 cats treats and washed the bowls afterwards. She followed the directions thoroughly and will always let us know when she arrives and when she leaves. She sends us a ton of videos and photo updates.”

“I can’t say enough about the incredible care and affection Lil gave our two boys Smokey and Bandit during our vacation. We’re just afraid they may like her more than us now! Lil followed all our requests to the letter regarding the food, litter, water, times, etc, and went above and beyond playing with them, petting them and grooming them. Her reports were detailed letting us know exactly what took place and how they were, and immediately brought up any concerns. And her pics were unbelievable! The expressions she captured and the action shots were amazing! She could be a professional action pet photographer! And all of this despite issues with our electronic door lock which she also helped us resolve. Lil is extremely conscientious and reliable and I would recommend her highly to anyone!”

“Sally was amazing! This is the first time working with Rover and was very worried to let anyone into my home. Sally was respectful and responsible. I would definitely book with her again and I highly recommend her.”

“Our cat is 21 years old and requires lots of love and attention. Kaitlyn came daily to administer her three medications, feed her and clean her litter. But best of all was seeing pictures of my cat comfortable and happy with Kaitlyn! Will definitely have Kaitlyn come back to take care of our fur baby again!!”

“Jessica is awesome. She's very responsible and diligent. We've never had a vacation with a drop-in sitter before and she's relieved all of my concerns. She answered all my questions during the meet and greet, followed instructions perfectly, and sent me daily photos. My cat was happy and healthy when we returned. Highly recommended!! A+++”

About: Hi! I have always been a life long dog lover. Having grown up with four dogs of my own and eventually adopting my own as an adult, as well as caring for others dogs, you can feel comfortable with your dogs in my car. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. (I grew up with Boston Terriers and Cane Corso Mastiffs!) I can do overnight stays in your home, drop ins, feeding, walks, bathing, medication administration, etc (just ask!) I truly have always been a massive dog lover and while I don’t have any dogs of my own now, being able to be around dogs and help care for them is such a joy for me! I am a full time Teacher so evenings and weekends are when I have more availability. I also have extended time available during the larger school breaks. Despite working full time, I can do overnight stays in your home depending on the days and location. If you need a specific time/day, reach out and ask and I can try to make it work! Because of my own territorial only child, Willow, I cannot offer services in my house. That said, in your home, I will keep the environment exactly how you want it to be. I want to ensure that your pets environment is the same as always so they feel comfortable. I am very adaptable and want you and your pet to feel comfortable!

About: I'm available for dog walks weekday mornings and afternoons, 8 AM to 3 PM. I'm looking to increase my daily steps to improve my health, and I'd love to help your dog get their exercise in at the same time!

About: Hi, I'm Maria! I adore dogs and cats! I've been walking and sitting dogs for over 13 years and a professional pet photographer for 8 years. I grew up with lots of cats and dogs, and I volunteered at an animal hospital while in college. Today, I have a friendly female creme Shiba Inu, Lula. I offer 1/2-hour or full-hour dog walks and pets sitting in the Whitestone and Beechhurst areas of Queens. I will take your puppy to the park for a stroll, a dog park or just around your area - whatever you prefer. Dogs in my trust for walks are NEVER left alone or unsupervised. I always "clean up" after dogs in my care and keep them on the leash unless, with your permission, we go to a secure fenced dog park. Whatever your instructions I will make sure they are followed exactly as you request. I'm a punctual, responsible, and respectful person who loves dogs. I will take good care of your puppy as if they were my own. I will make sure they feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention and affection during their stay with me! As a lifelong owner of dogs and cats, providing a consistent schedule of daily care, feeding, walks, and affection comes naturally to me and my schedule. I provide care, feeding, clean up and affection as instructed. I'm also happy to follow any other instructions that may be specific to each pet.

About: As a vegan, I care deeply for all animals. I’ve grown up around cats and dogs, have volunteered at sanctuaries, and have a sweet cat named Corny. I have many friends with dogs of all sizes and love them all as my own! I’m currently looking for part time/night time/weekend shifts, but am very open to discuss weekday availability. I nanny my niece 3 days during the week, but am free early morning and evenings/nights any day of the week. I give a lot of attention to pets when I visit their home. I recognize it’s their safe space, allowing them plenty of time to get used to my scent and presence, play with toys, and give lots of treats (if and when allowed). I’m also very comfortable with elder or more independent pets who may not be as cuddly or active.

“Jason once again did an amazing job.. his communication is seamless and he keeps me super updated on the visits. Jason sends the best pictures of Willie & Cali and is quick to respond. He is my go-to.. Thank you Jason!”

About: I have grown up around dogs as well as owned my own dogs for many years. I am well versed in walking, feeding, bathing, and simple grooming techniques. Although a lot of my experience comes from my own personal experience, I have worked at dog grooming facilities and dog boarding facilities, so I've gained experience with large breed dogs from those places. (I will only be available to offer my services during the Summer and mid December to January) Although I do have extracurriculars (dance and horseback riding), I have a fairly free schedule that will allow me to work with various clients and their schedules! I always make sure to double check the fit of harnesses/collars to ensure the safety of pets on a walk. I am capable of putting an animal back in a crate if necessary as well.

About: I have a huge heart for all furry friends! In addition to caring for my own dog, I have experience dog sitting, fostering a puppy and volunteering at the animal shelter. My goals is always to provide a safe space, offering them a caring and comfortable environment. In addition, I am super active and love being outdoors! I enjoying long walks, hikes, and adventures with my own dog, so your pet will receive the same level of love and attention that I give to my own! I go into the office once a week, but work from home for the rest is days! I work Monday through Friday (9-5),but take my dog out at 7am, 12pm and around 6pm for walks and potty breaks. I can accommodate more time outside depending on your dogs needs! On the weekends I’ll spend a few hours at the park, beach or some large field for my dog to run around. I aim to provide a routine that works well for your dog and myself! I want to make sure all dogs are comfortable and adjust well to their new environment. I’ll always include play time, enrichment activities, balanced meal times and snacks, upkeep grooming/hygiene needs and of course provide a loving and safe space for your pups needs.

About: I'm an incredibly active individual. I love to lift weights, practice martial arts, hike, and go on runs. This allows me to be an excellent fit for a dog whose energy levels are high. If you'd prefer for me to not just take your dog to the bathroom, but provide them a good amount of exercise as well, I'm a great fit! When I'm not taking care of dogs I work as a writer, director, and editor on films, social media videos, and commercials. If you've ever wanted any photos or videos of you and your four legged friend (or just them) I can provide high quality images/videos for you as well whether you want to just show off to your friends and family or just to have status updates on how your dog is doing. Because I work freelance my schedule tends to be flexible and allows me to set my own hours usually. I will work with you as best as I can to fit your needs within my schedule. I treat dogs very similarly to how I treat people. I show them a great deal of respect, empathy, and love. I do tend to spoil my own dog here and there, but I also try to love him as unconditionally as he does to me. A golden rule I try to follow is treat others the way you want to be treated. Another golden rule I try to follow is to see myself in others. I also apply these two golden rules to my encounters with pets and nature in general.

About: I love all dogs. I will play, run, hug, pet and feed your dog as if it were my own. I have a family pet dog named coco and took care of all her needs when I lived with my parents; feeding, daily walks, bathing, nail clipping, trips to the vet, car rides, etc. I moved and currently cannot have a dog of my own, therefore I would love to take care of yours. I will make sure your dog gets enough exercise during our walks and make sure to stop and sniff all the roses (hydrants). I am excited to meet your dog and I know without a doubt the both of us will have a lot of fun together. Most importantly, I will share with you all the adventures we spent together by sending pictures and sending updates daily. I wake up very early everyday (6am)…. it’s my favorite part of the day! I love to take this time to check on my pooches The bigger the dog, the more walks, max 6 walks/day. I treat your dog as I would my own, I want to make sure they are getting as much time outside as needed.
