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.

“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.”

About: This time in my Life is the first time, I have not had a dog of my own. I have had a dog since I was about 8 yrs old. I love dogs, all dogs and for some reason, I have yet to meet a dog who doesn't like me. I will always treat your dog like my own. At this time in my life.. I want to Love everyone else's dogs. I am retired and home almost all days, and if I am not home and watching someone's dog, I would more than likely take them with me. I enjoy going to dog park with my Nephew Dogs and basically just love hanging out with dogs. I live in an apartment and have no pets. I would make all dogs feel comfortable and I allow Pets on furniture and have toys and treats always in the house. I would take them for walks and dog park. Just talking about it, makes me happy.


“Heeyoung was awesome. We had a wedding to go to and realized last minute that we needed someone to watch Ollie, our 4 month old Basenji. We contacted Heeyoung the day before, she responded so quickly and was able to come to our house, meet Ollie, go over all the instructions and we were all set. She came on the night of the wedding, texted us when she got to our house, she also texted us all the details of her visit, and then again when she left. Such a terrific experience and Heeyoung was so gentle and caring with Ollie. Will definitely will be using Heeyoung for future dog sitting and will be meeting with her over the summer to discuss boarding Ollie when we go on vacation. Thank you Heeyoung!!”


About: I have decades of experience caring for pets, mostly my own. I grew up in a house full of dogs and have maintained that my whole life. Also had a great cat, hamsters and other pets. I believe animals deserve the best care possible as our “best friends” and beloved family members. I have extensive experience too in customer service and am highly solution-oriented. If you need me in a moments notice, always happy to do it if available. I have many years of experience also serving on boards at various animal shelters as well as volunteering to walk/care for dogs and cats and these locations. Even ran the NYC marathon as a top fundraiser for the ASCPA. My priorities in order are: god, pets, then people. Think I’ve got that in good order! 🥰 Currently between full time jobs and looking for a change of pace as well as to build a business that can extend into charitable resources beyond my income to help animals in need. I will follow your instructions exactly as detailed as well as use my years of experience should something occur or I notice a need/potential issue. My goal is to make the visit as enriching for your pet as possible. I think they sense that on me as animals tend to gravitate toward me, even the most shy and skittish. We live a nice life but my dogs probably even better than I. I provide them with superior care and lots of love. Animals are very perceptive and so I work to extend that same level of connection to all animals I meet, which would include yours if you select me for your pet care needs. Thank you!

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my deep understanding of canine behavior, paired with hands-on experience in both puppy training and senior dog care. I’m skilled in basic obedience training for puppies, using positive reinforcement techniques to help them develop good habits early on. For senior dogs, I provide gentle, attentive care tailored to their unique needs, including administering medication, assisting with mobility, and maintaining a calm, comforting environment. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared-for in my presence. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my days around the needs of the pets I care for—whether it’s scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I plan my calendar to allow plenty of time for visits, check-ins, and quality one-on-one time with each pet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and attended to. Staying organized and consistent helps me maintain routines that pets thrive on, and I always build in extra time for cuddles, enrichment, and detailed updates for pet parents. It’s not just part of my schedule—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, medication, and playtime, and I always make sure their space is clean, safe, and stress-free. I give plenty of affection and attention, while also respecting each pet’s unique personality and boundaries. For pets in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy resting spots, safe play areas, and regular outdoor time (for dogs). I limit the number of pets I host to ensure each one gets personalized care and attention. Whether in your home or mine, your pet’s well-being is always my top priority.

About: Hi, I'm Natalia and I love animals. I have grown up with my own dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. Even birds too. Taking care of them is taking care of your family. So I will be sure your pet(s) have everything they need while in my care. And will be treated with the same love, kindness, and affection as I do with my dogs and cats. I will always check if the pavement outside is too hot for their paws on sunny days and if it's also too cold/salted on other days to avoid harm to their paws. I do not have experience with newborn puppies, but I am a quick learner if given a chance. I'm currently a freelancer, so my schedule is flexible daily. Any time of day throughout the seasons, I'm available to aid in caring for the pets in your lives. While I'm not accepting other people's pets within my home, I'm open to caring for your pets in their safe space. Just like us, they have a routine, which I would be happy to learn and follow.

“Katherine is amazing! She’s so sweet and a lover of all animals. I forgot to make accommodations for our pets prior to an overnight wedding. Katherine responded quickly and put me at ease that my furry friends were in good hands from the moment I met her (it was my first using a sitter and just moved to the area). It was such a bonus that she is studying to be a veterinarian. I’ve recommended her to my neighbors already.”

About: I’ve been taking care of my dogs since I was 5 years old. My family back at my hometown has 4 dogs that I always dog sit and take care of. I am currently a teacher who is off for the summer! So taking care of a pet will fit right into my daily routine since I am pretty free and the moment. I currently have 4 dogs and usually dog sitting another.

About: I have an 8-year-old Samoyed and plenty of experience caring for other types of dogs, from neighbors’ pets to strangers’. I bring reliability, patience, and genuine care to every pup!

I have a spacious living room that’s perfect for dogs to relax and play in! Safety is my top priority -- I make sure any hazards are out of reach. Your pup will always be supervised, and I’m all about giving them the care and attention they need to feel happy and at ease.

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 a Mom, Nurse, and Professor who loves dogs! I have a loving heart and healing hands. I know how to care for the essential needs of a dog. My work hours are flexible and local, so I am available to help care for dogs in my neighborhood. I can provide care for your dog and be sure he or she is safe and comfortable. I have experience in caring for dogs in my home so I know what is needed in order to provide effective care. My dog taught me what it means to care whole-heartedly.
