“Anali was wonderful. She helped us when we had a last minute booking and took wonderful care of our dog. She sent numerous photos each day and kept me very informed of our dog's activities. I would highly recommend her and definitely use her again.”
“Shaun was wonderful!!! I was nervous to leave nala with someone new for the first time and Shaun made sure Nala had a great time. He kept me updated with plenty of photos and texts keeping me at ease. I would absolutely recommend Shaun for anyone who wants great care taken of their pups!”
“Alyssa was flexible, personable and accommodating. She was amazing with Elvis and made him feel part of the family. He was happy calm and relaxed after his time with her. She took him on many walks and adventures and made his stay fun for him. We received photos of him looking entertained and happy. She took excellent care of our fur baby and we would absolutely recommend Alyssa to take care of your pet.”
“Will definitely book with Ryan again soon! He proactively sent lots of updates and pictures and was responsive whenever I reached out. He indulged my pup in all the cuddles he demanded, and I trust he was in good care :)”
“Sally B. was a lifesaver for us, our pet care fell through days before a trip and she was able to help. Our dog took to her right away and Sally was very communicative with photos and updates. She was also flexible with dates which helped us a ton, as we had to extend our trip at the last minute due to illness. We felt completely comfortable having our dog in her care and would definitely ask her to watch our girl in the future.”
“Alejandro was great with our pup, Meeko. From the very first meeting, he was sweet, gentile and caring. It is clear that he is a great dog person who knows what needs a dog has and how to to take care of them. He also has a wonderful dog of his own who is super friendly and got along great with Meeko.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog when I was 5 which was my dream come true and had pets pretty much my whole life until I was 22. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, but I’m always happy to help watch my neighbors’ and friends’ pets whenever they need someone. I really enjoy being around animals and getting to know their different personalities. I’m caring, patient, and responsible, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, walks, and love while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I love every dog as if they were my own. Honestly, even when I see a dog walking down the street, I get so excited and immediately want to say hi! I would love to have a dog of my own right now, but since that isn’t possible at the moment, I think pet sitting is a really great way for me to spend time with dogs, care for them, and give them all the love and attention I would give my own. I’ve graduated from college in 2023 and since then have returned to taking college courses again. Therefore, I am used to the college life while maintaining animal care, whether it was for my own dog or dog sitting. Having to take courses again and not having a full time job has left me with more than enough time at home throughout the week. My family has always loved animals, so when I was 5 and had asked for a dog- it was an easy yes. I’m used to having a dog/dogs around the house. When my 2 dogs unfortunately passed away, I began dog sitting for neighbors, friends, and other loved ones and through my experience, I have had ample time for them in my schedule. I live in a house with a yard where I can take dogs outside for some fresh air and playtime. Part of the yard isn’t fenced, so I would always keep dogs on a leash while they’re outside to make sure they’re safe. I also have a neighborhood that I really enjoy walking in, and I’d be happy to take dogs on multiple walks throughout the day depending on their energy level and needs. I’m happy to follow their usual routine as much as possible, whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just relaxing and getting lots of attention. If your dog uses wee-wee pads, that’s completely fine too! I’m happy to accommodate whatever they’re used to at home.
“We had such a great experience with Michaelangelo! We had a last-minute need for someone to watch our almost 2-year-old Boxer, Walter, who is VERY energetic and has some separation anxiety. Michaelangelo said yes without hesitation, which we really appreciated. He has two Pomeranians of his own and a great fenced-in yard where Walter could run around and get all of his energy out. Michaelangelo sent us pictures and updates every day, which really helped us feel comfortable knowing Walter was doing well. He was also very quick to respond anytime I had a question. Walter had a great time and came home happy! We’re so happy we found Michaelangelo and would definitely recommend him to our family and friends. We will absolutely use him again! ❤️”
“Diane was an amazing sitter for our older dog! I cannot say enough good things about her. I could tell from the outset that Diane genuinely cared for my dog and wanted to give him the care that he needs. And while we were traveling, we received lots of picture and video updates, and could clearly see how well he was being treated by Diane. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her services!”
“Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She was able to dog sit Duke on very short notice, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was reliable, caring and attentive. She kept me updated and made sure my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Will recommend to anyone:)”
“Sabrina was so attentive and caring. She took amazing care of my puppy. He just had a surgery and I didn’t have to worry about him at all during my trip. Thanks again”
“Nikki was fabulous! From the start, we knew that our little girl, Millie, was in good hands. Nikki sent pictures and videos to keep us updated on how Millie was doing. And Nikki's own dog, Scout, was very friendly and made Millie feel like she just found a new best friend! We highly recommend Nikki and will certainly plan to use her services again!!”
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs and understand the responsibility that comes with taking care of someone’s beloved pet. I’m experienced with following their regular feeding routines, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, giving them bathroom breaks, playing with them, and making sure they have a safe and comfortable environment. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I take the time to learn their individual routines and needs. I’m also attentive to their behavior and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, companionship, affection, and supervision throughout the day. I take pride in being dependable and treating every dog in my care with patience, respect, and the same level of love and attention I would want someone to give my own pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and on weekdays after 5 PM. If that works with your schedule, I’d be happy to care for your furry family members and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for your pet to play, relax, and enjoy some fresh air. I also live near a local park, making it easy to take your furry friend on enjoyable walks and give them the exercise and attention they deserve. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, happy, and right at home.
“I hadn't used Rover in a long time and I'm so glad I did. Joceline was amazing with my doggie! You can tell she has a lot of experience and genuinely loves what she does. She sent me videos and pictures throughout the stay and my Stormi looked so comfortable and happy with her and her children. I'm so glad I came across her and will definitely be booking with her again and again. Highly recommend!”
“We got just the right amount of pictures and video, enough to see she was having her best life but not an overwhelming number that interrupted our vacation. Our pup had itchy ears and she informed us immediately and asked what she could do. When it persisted, she came up with options that were safe and helpful. Second time our pup has stayed with her, definitely our go-to sitter from now on”
“This was the first time since rescuing Lucy 2 years ago, that she was left with someone other than a family member. It was a week long stay and Doreen was very accommodating. Perfect home for a dog with separation anxiety and the fenced in yard was such a plus. I received updates and frequent photos of Lucy. I would recommend Doreen wholeheartedly.”
“Don't think twice in leavinb your furry baby with Katherine. My baby furry dog comes home wanting to stay with her. She takes wonderful care and she sends me so many adorable pictures and videos. Thank you Katherine!!!!”
“Miki was amazing! She took great care of Daisy and shared videos of her playing in the snow in her courtyard. She also brought Daisy home which was a huge help.”
“Ilona and Will were AMAZING. We booked last minute over Christmas weekend and she was very responsive and available on short notice which was great! Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times, we got updates daily and the cutest pictures! She watched all three of our dogs, and they came home happy, healthy, and tired!!! We will definitely use and recommend them again!”

Maria was excellent with my 8 month old Georgina. She pays attention to detail and treated my pup as if it were her own. Took her to the dog parks and Maria sent me so many photos/videos. Plus their resident dog got along so well with my pup and they had such a great time, together . Definitely will be coming back and using her services.
I couldn’t have asked for better sitters for Milo! Miryam and her husband are such kind, humble, and genuinely caring people. They made sure Milo felt right at home, showered him with love, and spoiled him as if he were their own. 🥹❤️ What impressed me the most was how quickly they got to know his personality, little quirks, and habits in just a couple of days. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. I’m beyond grateful for the care and affection they gave my baby. I would absolutely trust them with Milo again and highly recommend them! 🐾❤️
I had an incredible experience with Xinyu. My cat was in her care for over 15 days while I was on vacation. This was my first time ever being away from my cat and my cat’s first time ever being away from home with a new face. I was worried about my cat’s well being, but immediately after drop-off i received a video assuring me that my cat was safe and in her care. Immediately I felt confident in my decision to leave my cat with Xinyu. The updates never stopped. Every day I looked forward to the videos and pictures I received. Xinyu is also extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my questions regarding my cat’s behavior. I am now back home with my cat. I was worried he would be stressed or confused but that was not the case. He is just as happy and healthy as he was at drop off. I’m extremely thankful to Xinyu for her patience and exceptional care of my cat. If i ever require cat care again I will always book with Xinyu!! I’m forever thankful.
Omar did an amazing job watching our dog Sophie! He sent updates with pictures multiple times per day and thoughtful notes to let us know how she was doing. I often feel anxious about how she will do while we are away, but Omar’s updates put me at ease! Would recommend and use again 100%!
Esther did an amazing job taking care of my senior diabetic cat. I was a nervous wreck leaving him, but Esther knew what she was doing, was communicative, and gave me plenty of updates. It was so reassuring to know he was comfortable and doing well while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to pet parents and I would not hesitate to rebook with her!
Matthew was truly wonderful with our dog, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention he gave him. From the moment we left, we felt at ease knowing he was with someone who genuinely cared about him. Matthew was so attentive, took him on multiple walks, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It means so much to be able to leave your fur baby with someone and not have to worry, and Matthew gave us that peace of mind. You can really tell that he loves animals and puts genuine effort into making them feel loved and cared for. We are so thankful we found him and would absolutely trust Matthew with our dog again. 🙏🏻🐾 He was amazing from beginning to end!
Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She was able to dog sit Duke on very short notice, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was reliable, caring and attentive. She kept me updated and made sure my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Will recommend to anyone:)
William was great with our big puppy Diesel. During Diesel’s one week boarding William made sure to keep us updated and at ease with videos and messages. As a trainer, William also gave us feedback on the areas Diesel could use improvement in his training. We would definitely recommend William as a sitter for your four legged children.
Wilbur seemed happy during his visit with Nikki. Easy arrangement and communication with Nikki - would’ve loved more photos and updates each day - but just happy to see Wilbur was in good shape after the 6 days :) Their dog Scout was super happy to play with Wilbur so it was good companionship at Nikki’s house.
Rhonda & her husband were gracious hosts to our dog for a couple of days. She was very communicative, checking in; getting clarification when necessary & sending great photos. My favorite was the one where she took her on a walk near the water - photo shows our dog with Rhonda, sitting on a bench with her head up - tongue out and laughing. Highly recommend!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Many sitters in NY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
