“Can’t thank Donovan enough for watching our little pup! He is super friendly, on time, extremely reliable and truly cares about the pets he is watching. He is the best sitter we have ever found and you will not regret booking with him.”


“Paige and Thomas did a great job with our 2 cats. They both took to Paige right away (very hard for them to do) and came out to see her when she and Thomas arrived. Paige was dealing with some personal circumstances yet was always prompt, polite, and overly communicative (which I really appreciated!!!). I would highly recommend them for your beloved animals.”

“Raine was great and very caring. She will make sure your pet is cared for and will go out of her way to do so. Highly recommended.”


About: I've always loved spending time with dogs since I was a kid. Raising and training Remy, a Vizsla male with unlimited energy (who is now 5), has fast tracked my dog care experience. He's a LOT of dog and I absolutely love it. A few years ago, I started caring for dogs over Rover. It's been a wonderful experience for us, and I've especially enjoyed learning how to communicate with dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personality types. Cats are good people too! For cats I'm happy to provide drop-in services and potentially house sitting if it works with my schedule. I'm in between professions now working a lot from home on Long Island. I have a flexible schedule over this summer in particular. I'm especially keen to take on dog walking clients and check-ins, though boarding or day care is possible depending on the circumstances. I'm happy to adjust to you and your dog's needs in terms of exercise, exposure to other dogs, and on/off leash comfort levels. I'm currently living in a house with a fenced in yard and plenty of comfy spots for dogs to relax. (Your dog would be allowed everywhere ours is, which is everywhere.) I'd love to chat over the phone or by text to figure out if my services would work for your pet and if they would be a good fit for our household!

“Erinn was great with Luna! She took great care of her during her drop-in visits. Luna definitely loved all of the ball-playing time! Would highly recommend Erinn.”


About: I’ve been raising, helping to raise, and training animals since I was 10 years old! Dozens of horses, dozens of dogs, 6 birds, and 2 cats later, I dare say I enjoy the company of animals more than people. I worked for a company called PupStrut in Manhattan when I was attending college for all 3 years at that school. I provided training and a full hour walk for 3-5 dogs/day roughly 3 days/week. (Sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the client) I’m freelancing and cleaning houses part time currently. I am helping care for my in-laws animals as well. I’d love to help a few other families care for their furry babies! I need a meet and greet with the owner to learn about the ins and outs of a pet’s space, their dietary needs, health issues, personality quirks, and what training needs they may require. I’m a quick learner and I’m organized to a flaw.

“I highly recommend Jessica! This is the second time she has watched my dogs. I have to hire someone to give my dog his meds at night if I am not around, and I trust her to do it! She is very kind and keeps you updated during the check in.”


About: Hi there, I am a marketing, events, and partnerships professional with a passion for animal care. I am a certified ski instructor, swim teacher, and wilderness leader with a passion for sports and the outdoors. In my free time you’ll find me volunteering at a local animal shelters and walking dogs around prospect park for NYC Sean Casey’s rescue. I have references from families I have worked for years for, and look forward for your family and animals to join my circle of loved animals. I am currently working freelance positions that do not require me to be in person M-F. I currently work part time for a pet care company out of Westchester and reside in Brooklyn. My family home is also an option for boarding, as well as my spacious apartment. I am open to traveling to all over the Tri-state area. I have been a animal care companion for years for local families who ask me to long term/short stay pet sit ( a three week stay was my longest) and even just do stop ins to water plants if they are away with their animals on holiday. For boarding my home is pet friendly with no restrictions on furniture, and no toxic plants in reach of any curious snouts. While I do not have a fence backyard, I have a patio and two large grassy spots with a long lead tie up for supervised outside time. We are two large lots down from a main road. I am always cautious, safety first, and respectful with all animals and other owners we may come in contact with, and always follow owners lead if socialization is acceptable for each situation.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience with a wide range of pets, including puppies and older dogs. I have my own dog, Rocky, who means the absolute world to me and I know that I wouldn’t leave him with someone untrustworthy. I also have a lot of patience when it comes to pet care, making sure they’re comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel loved and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently going to school but I have a lot of free time and I would love to be able to watch dogs in my free time. Im also free during the weekends. I will give them a comfortable and safe space. I will accommodate to any needs they may have and make sure they have food at the appropriate time and water at all times. Also, they will be allowed to sit/lay on the bed.

“Febe did a great job taking care of my cats and she was very communicative with me.”


About: Hello there! I, like many college kids, had a tough time during covid. Luckily, my roommate brought his perfect little puppy to school! He was training to be a CCI dog and honestly kept me sane. We would go on hikes, walks to the park, and say hello to anyone passing by. He became a bit of a local figure by the time he was turned in, well known for being such a sweet boy. I miss him every day and would love to go on adventures with puppies (of all ages) again!! I am unemployed as of right now. I will have all the time in the world to take your dog wherever they want and bring them back very happy and sleepy. I currently live directly inside a park (Wawapek preserve) and will be able to run them all around there. I love to jog so if a pup is feeling extra crazy we can run together! I am not comfortable with off leash dogs so we will remain on leash unless inside an obviously fenced in area. I also want to avoid dog parks with more than one or two other dogs present, as to mitigate any risk of problems happening. I will abide by any rules (crates, no sitting on furniture, etc) that the owner sets other than shock or prong collars. I haven't been taught how to handle dogs with those types so I don't think that would be the best fit. Besides that, I'll run that pup all around!

“Jaymie is wonderful! Our girls were alone for the first time and Jaymie took the best care of them. She was reliable and tremendously sweet with our girls. We are so happy.”


About: My mom has always been an animal person, so I've had pets my whole life. She had 14 cats at one point with a dog so no matter how much of a handful a pet can be, it's not 14 cats at once!! I'm looking to enjoy time with your pets and meet all their needs! I'm currently working part-time Sunday-Thursday, so my schedule can be inconsistent, but I'll still have plenty of time to cater to your pups! I'm great with time management and organization. I have a fully fenced-in yard and a puppified house! We have gates and pink accessories everywhere you look for our new girl puppy, Moxie! I am very respectful and will make sure to clean up after myself and your pup.

About: I am an incoming second year veterinary student at LIU post with a passion for providing high quality, reliable care to all animals! I have extensive experience working in veterinary clinics as well as pet sitting since I was in high school, so I am comfortable providing medical care to your pets. I understand how important it is finding appropriate pet sitter that accommodates all your needs, as I have two cats at home myself and it takes a lot of time finding the perfect person! I am also currently working in a veterinary clinic on top of being a veterinary student, so I’m constantly improving my education and experience with pet health. Every pet is unique, and I am more than happy to go above and beyond to provide the care your pets deserve! There is no such thing as asking for “too much”, I will provide as many updates as you need throughout the day, respond to your messages right away, and facetime/video chat if you’d like live updates. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me for any requests, I want to make your experience top notch using me as your rover sitter! My schedule is open and flexible to provide rover services every week. I am fully dedicated to house-sitting and caring for your pets while studying in veterinary school as I am working towards becoming a veterinarian. As an owner of 2 cats, it's very important for me to provide daily enrichment and quality to my babies no matter how busy I am, and same applies to the pets I'm house-sitting for! I am dedicated to providing quality and reliable care and will communicate with you on how I can be the best caregiver. I will be providing all my services by coming to your home so I plan on doing an initial meet and greet with you, any family members, and your pet(s) of course so we can make sure everyone is comfortable! I will communicate with you often while caring for your pet(s) and acknowledge any special requests you have for me as well! There's no such thing as asking for too much when pet sitting for your animals- they are your priority and I will be flexible to make sure I am the best caretaker for your pets!

Hanna W.
“I'm so scared to write this, because I want to keep Hanna all to myself and my dogs!! For years we took Charley, my Australian labradoodle on vacation with us and never left him. We added Dani, our Havanese, 2 years later and then were towing two dogs to hotels and it was crazy. I am obsessed with my dogs, they're my babies. When we decided it was time to leave them home and came across Hanna, everything felt right on our first meeting. My dogs immediately wanted to be with her and she was so joyful and comfortable with them. I gave her all my worries and she had no fear. Two vacations later, having realized how much easier it is on our family AND our dogs to leave them home, and we can't recommend Hanna enough. She is so amazing with our pups and they're clearly content and relaxed when we get back from being away. She's such a gem and you'd be lucky to have her care for your dogs!”


Victoria F.
“I completely trust Victoria with any pet. I asked her to pet sit my English bulldog Daisy a few weeks ago, and she did an amazing job. She took Daisy for a walk twice a day and made sure she was well fed. I will definitely be asking Victoria to pet sit for me again. I recommend her to anyone looking for dog walking/pet sitting.”
