“Malak was incredible. She really took the effort to get to know my animals to make sure they were comfortable and happy. She always made sure the apartment was I’m better condition when she left and went the extra mile to leave my home kept and my pets happy.”
About: I am a former animal care specialist at Pet N’ Play Luxury Resort, when I was living in upstate NY. Currently living in Bushwick, and at the resort I supported cats and dogs for overnight stay at our daycare, as well as the veterinary hospital next door (Middlehope Hospital)! I worked with animals for playtime, feeding, laundry, cleanup, walks, and maintained their health and wellness report cards everyday. I have supported puppies at least 4 months old, blind, deaf, and senior dogs. CATS: I’ve taken care of cats at the hospital, and as a Walden Humane Society Volunteer! Love all cats, but I can only stay at the home if they are hypoallergenic :o at the moment i have availability after 3pm on weekdays, and anytime weekends! i work part-time in event staffing, and im very comfortable in nyc day and night, as im originally from queens :D. please feel free to contact me if you have further questions :) I’m not able to bring pets to my residence, however I’m currently offering dog walking and dog sitting! I love to spend time with dogs through use of toys or companionship, walks, talking to them, petting, being by their side, or inviting them to sit with me!
“Elena watched my 15 week old puppy, Saylor, while I was home for a family emergency on Staten Island. She visited Saylor for several walks throughout two days. Elena was extremely trustworthy, always on time (if not early) and entirely engaged with Saylor for the full visit! I highly recommend Elena for any pet help you may need!”
About: Hi! My name is Raquel. I’m a working professional. I love dogs and all animals. I most recently had a 10 year old shih-poo, Mocha, who I had to put down back in April due to several episodes of congestive heart failure. I had him since he was 2 months old and he brought me so many moments of happiness! I have since then fostered puppies and dogs with a local organization. Each experience is unique as each dog has their own personality! I find joy in getting to know them and caring for them, even if for a short while. I understand caring for your beloved pet requires patience, attention, and passion. I look forward to caring for your pet in the same way! I'm currently working from home so I will have plenty of time to care for your dog! I'm available on weekends and nights, upon request. I have a fenced yard and own a crate, if needed. I do not mind having your dog play around my home so that they have active time outside the crate.
“Alexis was wonderful with my dog and cat. She met them a week before. My dog instantly got along with her. Alexis has a very kind and caring aura to her that my pets picked up on and were comfortable with her right away. My husband and I will be reaching out to her for any future trips.”
“Eimy was excellent! This was our first time using the rover app. She was very communicative and willing to listen to our instructions. Happy to trust her in the future with our fur-baby.”
“Jennifer was a fantastic dog walker & carer for our pup who stayed home while we went away. She was open to meeting with us prior, to form a bond with our anxious dog, who warmed up to her instantly! For once, we felt at ease travelling without Kobe. Jennifer also administered his medication everyday with no hiccups and stayed in contact with us daily, which made us feel very reassured. Not only would I recommend her services — we look forward to Jennifer watching Kobe again in the future. If I could give 10 stars I would! ??”

“Day 1 leaving our puppy home by herself was such an easy good day because of Durell. 🥰 She’s timely,‘communicative, loving, and very helpful/does anything I suggest or ask of her. Will keep using Durell & Michael again and again for our pup, Scoobie… She loves Durell, as well!”
“Tara did a great job again watching my kitties while we were away. I really appreciate that she always sends update photos and spends the time to play. She even cleaned up some unexpected messes (naughty kitty unrolled a LOT of toilet paper) which was much appreciated!”
About: Hello my name is Nancy I love all types of animals especially dogs. I've been infatuated with dogs ever since I was a little girl. I love to play fetch go for walks give belly rubs accept wet noses and wet kisses tend to have animals open up to me in a friendly matter. I use to have a red nose pit bull I rescued her. She was mistreated and I opened up my home to her she was the most loyal yet gentle dog I ever encountered. I love all pets big or small our fur babies are family as well so we care for them the same way we would treat another human all pets should be loves unconditionally no questions asked .
“Noelle is truly the best!! this was our 2nd time booking her, we had her for multiple days being gone for over a week. our milo wouldn't come out for anyone that came besides her, she knew exactly what to do to make him feel safe and loved. there's no one else we would trust with our pets than her! thank you to Noelle for loving our cat and taking care of him”
About: I have been working with dogs for a lot of my life. I've owned two German Shepherds, Two Huskies and a Beagle Dachshund mix so I have dealt with a variety of different dogs. I worked for the Shelby Humane Society for almost 2 years helping animals get adopted. I put my all into caring for animals because it's something I love to do and i love dogs and cats or pretty much any animal for that matter so much so that I treat them like my own children. Your dogs are in good hands with me and no matter what after you receive my services you will be coming back for more. Have a great day everyone and I can't wait to meet your Furry Friends. I'm currently working with a gig agency so I work on my own schedule which gives me plenty of time to spend with your Furry Friends. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for your furry friends to run around and exercise. I also have two energetic children who love animals just as much as I do and they will give your furry friend just as much love as I will give them while they are inside my home because any animal that comes into my house is treated like my own child and like a member of my family. I'm also a certified license Advanced EMT so I have medical training under my belt for both animals and humans alike and that is another way that I will make sure your fur babies are completely safe while inside my home and in my neighborhood.
About: I have always had a pet growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion in learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets, family pets and caring for others pets at work as a veterinary assistant over the years and I am currently in school for Veterinary Technician. I also do house visits for dog and cat nail trimming. I'm currently working 3-days a week I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I'm available Sunday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday at anytime needed. I have a fenced in yard with 3 great dogs. I care for my dogs in my house by letting them outside to burn off their energy and play with their toys. In the summer they will dive right into their doggy pool.
“This was my first time having Jazmeen to watch my two boys and she exceeded my expectations. She was on top of everything I asked to be completed and then some. Both Cosmo and Reggie were fond of her and I will most definitely be booking her for my next trip!”

Megan did a wonderful job caring for my cat while I was away! She showed up on time, followed all instructions, and was super easy to work with. Communication was smooth the entire time and I came home to a very happy cat. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. Thank you!
Spencer was great! My cat warmed up to him quickly! He fed and played with her like how I asked. He communicated well and promptly. I asked him to drop off my packages and mail while I was away. He also agreed to do a neccessary last-minute task of picking up recyclables that had spilled out on at the front. Very helpful too!
As always Noelle and Victor went above and beyond for our pups. Sundae is very timid and warmed up to them right away, that’s how you know they’re great. And Chili was super excited to see them which is no surprise, they’re besties lol. Thank you guys so much!!
I could not be happier with how Michael and Durrell took care of Jax. They took the time to get to know him before I went away and worked with him to the point he was making great progress. Jax is used to being just with me but Michael and Durrell had the patience to work with him til they were able to take him for walks and he’d showed them affection. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them for my next trip.
I recommend Ian! He took very good care of my cats. He cares. While I was gone, he would call me and express concern if he suspected something was wrong. He was there on time every day for weeks, and always sent me pictures and updates. He even did the cutest drawing of my cat Winston and taped it onto the kitchen cabinet, which I appreciated. I will definitely call on him again to take care of my cats.
Above and beyond.... i never once felt any sense of concern leaving my cats in Sarah and Marias care. They were excellent care takers and lovely people. In fact i had to extend my stay and thats where they truly went above and beyond to help me out. I will definitely ask for them again if needed.
This was my first time having Jazmeen to watch my two boys and she exceeded my expectations. She was on top of everything I asked to be completed and then some. Both Cosmo and Reggie were fond of her and I will most definitely be booking her for my next trip!
