About: I grew up with my grandfather breeding German Sheppards and my family having 4 turtles, 2 cats, 2 hamsters and a dog. I love all animals. I work from home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I am usually home most weekends. I am almost always available if you reach out to me I can make it work with my schedule. I have tons of experience with cats and dogs, I was trained at Tri Borough Animal Welfare to take care of the pitties and kitties for their shelter program.
“Nicole was great! She spent time with my cat, followed all instructions, kept me updated and checked in if she was able to drop in earlier. Would absolutely book again!”
“Hansa is by far the best catsitter i’ve known. She is more than just a catsitter, because she goes above and beyond as though they are her own cats. Her care for then is unmatched. She is so friendly, so considerate and respectful, and her constant communication sets her apart from others. My cats love her because they truly feel loved by Hansa. She deserves 10 stars, not just 5!!”
“She is the best and most patient sitter I have ever met. She not only did a fantastic job she helped my Dino start to get over his anxiety! Work in progress as it’s a journey and she has the patience of a saint!”
“I had an amazing experience with Morgan over the Christmas break. She took excellent care of my diabetic cat, ensuring he received his insulin and even administering UTI medication when we discovered he was had a mild UTI.

About: My heart doesn’t know any other way-when it comes to animals, I love them instantly and unconditionally. I have 18+ years of experience caring for animals, starting from a very young age. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for both Pitbulls and French Bulldogs but to me, breed doesn’t matter. I truly love all animals, big or small. I’m bilingual and speak both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with a wider range of pet parents and provide clear, open communication. I’ve always been the go-to person for anything pet-related. My family calls me the dog whisperer because I have a natural bond with animals, especially dogs. Whether it’s advice, health concerns, or just being a listening ear, I’m the one family and friends trust with their fur babies. My soul dog was a red nose pitbull named Bricks- he taught me what real love is. Since then, I’ve raised three amazing French Bulldogs: Juicy, Kuma, and Tron. I also had the incredible experience of raising two litters from birth- Juicy had 5 puppies and Kuma had 6. I provided round-the-clock care until they were ready for their forever homes. I still keep in touch with the families- they became part of mine. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I regularly pet-sit for friends, family, and neighbors-dogs and cats alike. One of my most consistent companions is Max, my neighbor’s dog, whom I’ve been caring for for over a year. I give him daily medication and make sure he always feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ve also cared for a bearded dragon, who was part of our family for 11 wonderful years. I’m familiar with reptile needs, feeding, handling, and tank care. I also have experience caring for a cockatiel, including feeding, changing water, and maintaining a calm, happy environment for birds. I’m experienced with: Giving medication Drop-in visits Long walks and playtime Baths and basic grooming Feeding routines and crate care Newborn puppy care and socialization Basic reptile and bird care I truly treat every pet like they’re my own because in my heart, they are. The amount of kisses, cuddles, love, and attention your pet will receive is immense. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, comforted, and cared for like family. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. You can trust me to provide more than just care. I offer love, safety, and genuine companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, feedings, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Being home full-time means your pet will never feel alone and will always have someone nearby to care for and comfort them. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m visiting yours, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. At my home, pets have plenty of room to play and relax-I have a large fenced-in yard that's perfect for safe outdoor time and supervised play. If your pet is crate-trained or needs a crate for naps or bedtime, I can easily accommodate that too. I follow each pet’s routine closely-feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care instructions-to make sure they feel at home. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and ensure everything is done exactly how you’d like. I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for. I treat every pet like family and work hard to create a calm, loving, and secure environment, whether they’re with me or in their own home.

“Andy was an incredible sitter for our cat, Lincoln. He was highly responsive throughout the entire process, and he provided thorough check-in summaries with pictures, which really helped ease any concerns about our pet while out of town. Lincoln is not always the nicest to newcomers, and Andy did a great job navigating Lincoln’s defensiveness”
