Julia was amazing!! We left for 10 days for our honeymoon. She took great care of my two cats exactly as I had asked. She even took out the trash and swept the litter on the floor. I truly felt like my cats were in great hands which made me enjoy my trip more. She is very responsive and understanding of your needs. I highly recommend Julia!

Kimberly is amazing with our 5 month old puppy!!! She has been sitting for her for an hour twice a day and our puppy loves her! She’s also amazing about not reinforcing unwanted behaviors like jumping and she made a point to ask me what tricks our puppy knows so she can practice them with her too. Our puppy is not fully potty trained and needs to sometimes be reminded to go potty but Kimberly makes sure to have her go and she has not had any accidents. She also keeps me posted if things come up during the visit (like a lost tooth!) which I really appreciate. I could not be happier with how everything is going

About: I’ve previously worked for another pet service where I took dogs on walks and did drop-in visits. I also have some experience with cats, but I have a 5-year old dog myself. I have experience taking care of elderly dogs as I dog sat for a family friend for a few months and stayed the night at their house once a week. I would take the dog for walks, spend time with him and give him any medication he needed. I love animals and it doesn’t feel like work to take care of them for me. I am a teacher, so I am free during school breaks and on weekends. When I am not working full-time at school, pet care will be my first priority. I will listen to any requests made by the pet owner for what they want me to do, such as letting them out in a fenced backyard or keeping them on a leash. I also have experience crate training my dog and find that can be a safe place for dogs too.

About: I absolutely love animals!! I had a Schnauzer named Loki but he ran away. I decided I wouldn’t have another puppy, but I’ve been having a blast watching other people’s dogs. It’s kind of like a fun uncle type of situation I’ve been thriving on lately. I have tons of experience watching and handling animals. Since my youth, I’ve been in love with nature. I even became an Eagle Scout! I’m passionate about animals and all life in general. I even thought about becoming a vegan, but that’s another topic of discussion… I’m attending in-person classes at University on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10AM to 3PM. Also, I teach Yoga at POSE Studios on Mondays at 5:30PM. There’s still tons of availability though because my days start early. I’m available: Mon. 6AM to 4:00 / 6:30PM to 10PM Tues. 6AM to 9AM / 3:30PM to 10PM Wedn.. 6AM to 10PM Thurs. 6AM to 9AM / 3:30PM to 10PM Fri. 6AM to 10PM Sat. 6AM to 10PM I am very communicative and attentive, so you can expect multiple text messages with updates on how your puppy is doing. Expect mini photo shoots!

About: 🐾Find me on Facebook Under Renee’s Reliable Pet Care!🐾 Passionate About Animals! Walks, Drop In’s + Happy Tails! ☺️ IG: reneesreliable_petcare I work part time on a flexible hybrid schedule, no kids. Enjoy true peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring hands with Renee’s Reliable Pet Care! I can be part of a positive routine that your pet can look forward to! Contact me to schedule a meet and greet and check out my amazing reviews! 🐾 I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I truly believe each animal has its own individual personality and quirks. My experience in pet care comes from having my own pets, caring for family, friends, clients, and neighbors. I started this journey because I had a difficult time finding reliable sitter’s for my own dog who has suffered from several seizures and has some separation anxiety. I would get canceled on when I was at the office and not have the care for him when I needed it most. These struggles helped me realize that I can easily be that reliable, compassionate person for individuals and their pets! I am punctual, great at showering pets with love and attention, and patient. I am reliable, caring and always happy to go out of my way to help others! I am all about details so please tell me everything your pet likes so my visits can be exciting and happy for your pet! Care checked/background checked. I am so excited to meet you and your baby! If you need someone to stay with your dog for a longer period of time, I work remotely MWF from 12:45-6 pm. I have a flexible work schedule so always ask for what you need! I have availability Tuesdays and Thursdays and have several time slots open 7 days a week this includes open weekend availability. I will take care of your pet like they’re my own! Safety and satisfaction is my number one priority. I will ensure your dog is properly leashed before leaving the house and ensure all doors are locked.

Bridget was amazing. Our two girls Holly and Shadow were very happy and we are so pleased that we found someone so close to us. We will definitely be using Bridget again in the near future. She treated our girls like they were her own. Our girls are older so they are very picky and they have their own issues. Shadow is a 13 year old Pug losing her hearing and Holly is a 12 year old Boston Terrier who is losing her vision. She was exceptional with them.

Chelsea was able to drop in and take care of my fur family with very little notice, when our regular pet sitter was unavailable She sent great pictures, stayed in touch during her visit and even got along with my temperamental Chorkie. We will definitely be using her again.

About: I’ve always possessed a deep love for animals and have grown up around pets my entire life. I have several years of hands-on experience working at a grooming salon, where I assisted with bathing, feeding, and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve also volunteered at local animal shelters, which helped me better understand dog behavior, body language, and each pet’s unique emotional needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I would be honored to care for your furry family member like they’re my own! 🐾 I recently graduated and am taking a gap year, pursuing additional courses as an aspiring physician assistant and working part-time in healthcare. My schedule is very flexible throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. I’m generally available most weekdays and weekends, except Thursdays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to body language, feeding schedules, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

Setauket- East Setauket, NY, 11733

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about eight years and have had four of my own — a German Shepherd, a Boxer, a Havanese, and a Maltese-Yorkie mix. I’ve also helped care for my neighbors’, friends’, and family’s dogs when they needed it. I’m comfortable with both big and small breeds and love making sure each dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m currently attending college, so my schedule is flexible around my classes. I’m available all day Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, after 5 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and after 11 AM on Fridays. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship I don’t offer pet sitting at my home as well as dog walking because I already have two dogs and three cats and don’t want to put any animals in a hectic environment. However, I’m happy to come to your home to care for your dogs or cats. I make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment, following all instructions you provide.

About: Neighbors and friends have trusted me with their dogs and cats for years — from daily walks to extended boarding. I match your pet's energy, whether they need a calm companion or an adventure buddy. I am currently a medical student, and my schedule is very flexible. I can take care of pets in the afternoons and the entire weekend. Your pet's comfort and safety come first. I stick to your established routines so they barely notice you're gone — consistent feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of love. I'm attentive to behavioral cues and know when a pet needs calm reassurance vs. playtime.

About: My 14 years of caring for my own pets as well as fostering dogs and caring for/walking neighbors and friends dogs has equipped me with a wealth of knowledge. While fostering, i received dog training for difficult breeds and learned that establishing a safe, stimulating and consistent routine keeps not only your dog happy, but their owner's happy as well. I'm punctual and responsible and strictly adhere to feeding schedules. During emergencies, I remain calm, follow pre-discussed plans and contact you immediately. Witnessing a your pet's unique personality and providing them comfort brings me such joy. I'm currently work as a freelance illustrator and have children who are school age so my schedule is pretty flexible during the day to play/walk your pups I'm available 9:30am-3:30pm and then 7-9 Mon-Fri and Available anytime on Saturday and Sunday. I work with clients to maintain the routines they've already established for their pets along with my 14 years experience caring and fostering my own pets and my friends and family's pets.

About: My name is Morgan. I love animals no matter what type, breed, size or age. I have one dog and three cats, all of which I rescued from animal shelters. I love my pets more than anything, if you choose me to watch your pets, I can guarantee you I’ll treat them like my own pets! I am very organized and personable. I pride myself in being very tidy and respectful, especially while inside your home. I will focus 100% of my time on your pets while I am working with them because I find it very important to always show animals the love and attention they deserve. Please feel free to ask me any questions about me, my experience or my availability! I look forward to hearing from you! Pet care is honestly just woven into my daily routine at this point, it doesn't feel like a separate task. My mornings start with feeding and a walk, which actually gives me a great reason to get outside and move before I sit down to work. Throughout the day I'm mindful of keeping things consistent for them, meals, playtime, making sure they're not just sitting alone for too long. Evenings are usually when we wind down together, which I genuinely look forward to. It's one of those things that adds structure to my day without feeling like a chore, more like a grounding ritual than a responsibility. I care for pets the same way I'd want someone to care for mine, with consistency, attention, and a lot of patience. In my own home, that means sticking to a routine they can rely on: regular feeding times, daily walks or play sessions, and making sure their space is clean and comfortable. I pay close attention to their moods and energy levels because animals communicate a lot through behavior, and catching when something feels off early makes a big difference. When it comes to caring for a client's pet, I make it a priority to understand their specific needs before I ever step through the door. Every pet is different, different diets, different temperaments, different routines, and I take detailed notes on all of it. I follow the owner's instructions closely, keep their environment familiar and stress-free, and always communicate updates so the owner feels confident and informed while they're away. I treat their home with the same respect I'd want someone to show mine, and I treat their pet like my own.

D’Andre was a big help, came through last minute for me to take care of Rex while I was away for a trip. He was very nice to Rex, attentive and even took care of doggy spill Rex had. Super communicative during the visit and I’m glad I hired him and will hire him more in the future.

Sydney is wonderful with my pups. My little girl pup is a loving, easy going baby but our boy had a rough start in life. He was neglected and abused so he gets a bit nervous with new people. Sydney really read him well and understood him right away. He warmed up to her very quickly because she gives him the time and space he needs to be able to trust. Having someone in our home when we aren’t was another big deal for us and Sydney really is just so trustworthy and respectful. We are so grateful that she comes and loves our pups when we are at work! I highly recommend reaching out to her if you’re looking for a reliable, responsible and trustworthy person to look after your pets!
