“Holly bailed me out when I had a last minute appointment. I couldn't have been happier. Came out on a cold rainy afternoon and took care of my babies like they were her own. I highly recommend her. She was on time, sweet and you can immediate sense she loves her job. I will definitely use her again.”

“What a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of my three cats, and was very gracious about a misunderstanding on my end. Great to work with. She house sat for me and also left the place in a wonderful condition. I would be happy to leave my babies with her again, fully recommended.”

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including both younger and older dogs. I’ve successfully cared for up to 8 dogs at the same time, managing different energy levels, routines, and personalities while making sure each dog gets the attention and care they need. I’m currently working part-time, which allows me to be available for pet care during key times of the day. I’m available on weekdays from 6am–9am for morning walks and check-ins, and again from 7pm–10pm for evening care. focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any specific needs. I make sure dogs are supervised, secure on walks, and never put in unsafe situations. I also have experience walking dogs while volunteering at a humane society, where I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent so pets feel relaxed and at home. I also provide updates so owners feel confident their pet is in good hands.
“Jennifer took great care of our puppy while we were away for the weekend. When we came back, he was happy yet calm, which makes me feel like she was a great comfort to him while we were away. She sent updates every day (just the right amount of communication- neither too much nor too little). Our home was exactly as we had left it- so Jennifer did an excellent job of keeping him from destroying our house ☺️”

“Claudia was very professional and communicative. She did a great job keeping us updated on our kitty while we were gone. She left our house in a great condition too!”


About: Hi! I am a junior at Cornell University home for the summer and I love animals. My own cat is named Tucker who is quite the high maintenance cat, but has given me lots of experience nonetheless. I have experience walking dogs and I also cat sit for other clients. I have administered oral medication for cats before. I am punctual and reliable, and I would love to help out you and your pet! I am currently taking a college class so I will be available to play, walk, or take care of your pet after 3 pm throughout the week. Most weekends I am available all day, and can do multiple visits or walks a day. I will be very respectful of your home while making sure your fur baby is as comfortable as possible! If they like their food a certain way, love blanket forts, or just having company, I am more than happy cater to their normal routine!
“Jasmine did a great job with our schnauzer. She took him for walks and kept us in the loop with texts and pics without going overboard. I think Murphy was sad when we got home!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Leaving our two dogs with someone else always makes us a little nervous, obviously! They are our babies! From the moment we met Dagmar, we felt completely at ease. Our dogs were treated like family. She kept us updated with messages/photos. She made sure both pups were happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. When we came home it was obvious our dogs were well cared for, and clearly adored their time with her. It’s such a relief finding someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be using Dagmar again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets!”


“Vladimir was so wonderful! He took the best care of our husky, Pan, in the cold and snow while we were away for a long weekend and sent us plenty of photos and updates of all their adventures. We would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him!”

“This was our first time using Catie, and we couldn’t have been more pleased! She was very kind and accommodating as our plans were rather fluid…and throughout her stay in our home, she was very communicative; sending pictures and updates, with most showing just how happy and comfortable our girl Zoe was with her new friend! Our dog and our home were both in great shape upon our return. We will absolutely use Catie again, for upcoming vacations or spot visits as needed.”

“Brandon completely went above and beyond to care for our two cats and home while we were gone for a week and a half! He asked thoughtful questions, followed all directions to a T, and often sent some greatly appreciated picture/video updates (and prompt responses). We were SO grateful to return home to find our cats in amazing spirits after clearly having some solid companionship, and to find our house exactly as we left it. Would absolutely book with him again!”

About: With a lifelong passion for animals and a deep understanding of their unique needs, I bring both experience and empathy to every pet I care for. Over the years, I’ve provided hands-on care for a wide range of domestic and exotic animals—including cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, freshwater and reef aquarium fish, and reptiles like tokay geckos, leopard geckos, skinks, veiled chameleons, and ball pythons. This diverse background has given me a strong foundation in animal behavior, enrichment, and health. I currently share life with a joyful four-year-old golden retriever named Zelda and a nine-year-old rescue cat named Little Girl "LG". I’ve completed multiple training programs—including the GoodPup Dog Training Certification. I specialize in positive reinforcement techniques tailored to each dog’s personality, and I’m particularly skilled at working with dogs who pull on leash or resist walking. My calm, reward-based approach helps build trust and better habits. I’m confident and comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’ve cared for pets with medical or behavioral needs—including administering medications and supporting post-rescue or recovery routines. Living near wooded areas has also given me firsthand experience rescuing and assisting wildlife and stray animals, including birds, deer, and cats. My flexible work-from-home schedule—as a freelance tech support and UX/QA tester—allows me to offer dependable, attentive pet care. While I’m currently unable to host animals in my home, I may be available for in-home pet sitting depending on your location. I always prioritize exercise, enrichment, and emotional well-being, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English and a Master’s in Public Health from the University of Maryland, College Park. These studies have shaped my thoughtful communication style and my commitment to wellness—for both pets and their people. Lately, pet care has become my full-time focus. I’ve built a steady group of regular clients and walks, and I’m always looking to welcome more—especially for early morning walks, which fit perfectly into my daily routine. While I still do some freelance tech work (like computer repair, UX, and QA testing), those are more side gigs at this point. My priority is providing reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for pets. My flexible schedule allows me to tailor each day around the animals I care for, giving me the ability to offer everything from quick potty breaks to longer walks, medication administration, or enrichment sessions. Because I’m already out and about each day with my regulars, it’s easy for me to fit in additional visits or accommodate last-minute requests. I love what I do, and I’m always excited to meet new pets and form lasting connections with them and their owners. While I’m not currently able to care for pets in my own home, I do offer attentive, in-home care in the comfort of your pet’s familiar environment. I tailor each visit to the pet’s routine and personality—whether that means calm companionship, active playtime, structured walks, or a combination of all three. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, get potty breaks or litter box cleanings, and receive any required medications. I also provide enrichment through mental stimulation and positive interaction, especially for pets that may need a little extra reassurance while their owners are away. I respect each client’s home and preferences, and I’m happy to follow specific instructions to make sure your pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible. Whether it’s a one-time visit or regular ongoing care, I’m committed to keeping your pet happy, healthy, and safe.
About: With over 14 years of full-time experience caring for animals, pet care is more than just my profession it is a lifelong passion. While the majority of my experience has been with dogs, I have also gained extensive experience caring for cats and birds in their homes. I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant with hands on veterinary experience and a strong understanding of animal health and wellness. I am comfortable administering oral, topical, and injectable medications, monitoring pets during recovery, and providing post-surgical care when needed. I am also very familiar with the veterinary clinics in the area and have experience transporting pets to appointments, assisting with checkups, and helping owners follow veterinary recommendations. What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I provide. I build close, trusting relationships with the pets I care for and take the time to learn their individual personalities, routines, dietary needs, and preferences. I have a strong interest in animal nutrition and understand the importance of maintaining consistency in a pet’s daily routine to support their overall well being. In addition to pet sitting and dog walking, I have several years of grooming experience. My building includes a dedicated pet grooming facility, allowing me to conveniently offer grooming services while pets are in my care. I am a dependable, knowledgeable, and compassionate caregiver with many long-term client relationships national and international. References from local families are available upon request, and I take great pride in the trust that both pets and their owners place in me. I would be happy to assist with all of your pet care needs, including pet sitting, dog walking, medication administration, recovery care, transportation to veterinary appointments, grooming, and personalized daily care.
“Crystal was great. She was helpful teaching me about training a husky i recently adopted thos week. My doggie adored her and cat Jackie. She provided pictures. Great sitter who communicated keeping my anxiety at bay. I am using her again.”

“Brooke is very courteous and conscientious and takes great care of Remy and our home. She has house sat a few times for us now and after she leaves, it’s as if she were never here.”


About: Love dogs all kind. First I pet seat my friend’s dogs when they were away. Then I got my own dog. Alaska is a 34 lbs pomsky. She is very playful and would like a company. I can take your dog to a dog park or the dog beach. Both of those amenities are next to my house. Moreover I have small fenced yard for playing with bunch of balls.I work from home , so have a lot free time to pet sit fur babies and take them for plenty of walks. If you are away for a short trip, book your pet a bed and breakfast inn in my house. I will take care of your furry friend either at my house or yours. Currently work from home. Very flexible. However prefer drop offs and pick ups in mornings. If pick up after 3 pm addition charge may apply I have fenced yard where. I can let dogs out for quick pee and play if needed. However I take them on walks at least 2 times a day. If good weather, I may take them to the dog park or rye beach

“Elvia is an amazing dog sitter! She was available on short notice, which was such a relief. My dogs loved her, she spent plenty of time playing with them and making sure they were happy and entertained. I especially appreciated the frequent updates and adorable pictures she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend Elvia to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter for their dogs!”

“Emma did an amazing job taking care of our almost two year old pup. She clearly has a natural ability with animals and put my mind at ease from the moment we met her. She was great at absorbing and following our directions and was very communicative during our trip, sending lovely updates and photos. Our dog was clearly and well cared for throughout and we have already booked Emma for another getaway. Very happy to have found her!”

Claudia was wonderful for her overnight visit with my senior dog at my apartment. It was my first time having someone stay at my place with my dog, and she was an incredibly respectful and polite house guest, sent so many pictures of Maple, and kept me updated throughout the stay. You can completely trust her with your pet and in your home!

Brandon took excellent care of Leo while we were away. He was professional and communicated well, took great care of our home and made sure that all of Leo’s needs were met. Leo loved cuddling with Brandon and especially appreciated the forest hikes! We’d highly recommend Brandon!

Anine stayed with our two Goldens and our two cats for a weekend. It was her first time staying with them and everything went seamlessly. She sent us several photos and the animals looked so happy and comfortable with her. She has a wonderful personality and took excellent care of the whole crew. I look forward to having her stay with them again (and I am sure they are looking forward to it too!
Holly bailed me out when I had a last minute appointment. I couldn't have been happier. Came out on a cold rainy afternoon and took care of my babies like they were her own. I highly recommend her. She was on time, sweet and you can immediate sense she loves her job. I will definitely use her again.

We needed a fill-in sitter for one weekend. Vinny got along with our pups and kitty really well and respected our home. I appreciate that he listened to our training requests with our youngest pup and not allowing him to jump. We had a last minute curveball with our oldest pup and she needed extra attention, she was well looked after. We felt at ease the entire weekend and came home to a calm, happy household.

Aaliyah stayed with our dog and cat for 5 days while we left the country and made it such an ease. She sent constant updates, checking in with pictures and status updates several times per day, and it was clear that our pets loved her and felt at ease. She always leaves our home spotless and our pets can’t wait to hang with her again soon!

Jennifer took great care of our puppy while we were away for the weekend. When we came back, he was happy yet calm, which makes me feel like she was a great comfort to him while we were away. She sent updates every day (just the right amount of communication- neither too much nor too little). Our home was exactly as we had left it- so Jennifer did an excellent job of keeping him from destroying our house ☺️
