About: I've personally grown up with pets, especially dogs, of all sizes and I am comfortable taking care of them all. For the last 10 years I have been doing it professionally at doggie daycare, pet-sitting, dog walking, training and boarding facilities, and any other services for dogs and cats! I will be there when you can't! I'm currently working part-time, and I am looking to grow a cliental in this location. I would love to schedule caring for your loved ones into my life! Pets with me are having a great time with several walks around the neighborhood a day. For our fetch playing friends we will run until exhausted! If you are on vacation, they will be too! I love to keep a dog busy and happy!

About: Your pets happiness makes me happy. I will take care of your pet as if it were my own. I am currently caring horses, dogs, cats, birds and rabbits. I would love to hear more about the needs of your pet. My work schedule is part-time and flexible. I work from home and am available for local jobs. I have my own transportation and am available early morning, afternoon and evening. Each animal gets individualized attention based on your needs and theirs. Your instructions are important to me and I will follow them completely. Thank you.

About: I’ve been an owner of dogs my entire life and a lover of animals for just as long. I have experience with multiple dog breeds, cats, small animals, as well as farm species, such as llamas, horses, sheep, and cows. I adore all animals and just finished my second year pursuing a degree in animal science. I love meeting pets of all types and ages and getting to know their different personalities! Whether I’m taking them for a walk, dropping in for dinner and playtime, or hanging with them for a few days, I will provide careful attention to your pets’ specific needs. Your pets will always come first and I am dedicated to ensuring their comfort and your peace of mind. I am currently interning part-time at an animal care facility, but I have a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the summer on weekdays or weekends. Please reach out to chat about your specific needs and preferences! I am available to stay with your pets during the day and/or overnight, as well as just dropping in a few times a day to walk and feed. I can manage both longer walks and shorter potty breaks/time in the yard. I will be sure to get an understanding of your pets’ routines to keep them as comfortable as possible.

About: Hello Pet Parents! I'm available for pet sitting, dog walking, and house/plant sitting on a one-time or recurring basis; I am available for boarding only if your pets are dog-friendly & potty trained. Certified by the American Red Cross in Pet First Aid for cats + dogs, fully insured by PCI, and experienced with my own 3-legged 11yo rescue dog's medical needs, I am prepared for any emergency situation life may throw our way. I always travel with a first aid kit for pets (and humans too). I have no problem carefully administering food and medicine (including insulin injections) alongside other care for senior and special needs animals. I am local to Cross River (where I was raised) and can travel up to 12 miles from 10518. I can do overnight stays but cannot be present in the home 24/7, as I have my own dog to feed and walk as well. I only host pets in my own home if they are dog-friendly and potty trained. I will always make sure to leave the home leashed (unless going into fenced in area) and ensure your pet gets back home safely & happily.

“Stuart had an issue getting my dog to go back in my home after her walk was over. Christmas Eve wanted to stay laying on the grass outside. Stuart immediately contacted me for assistance in getting Chrissy back in the home. She finally was coaxed to oblige with her favorite dog treat. Thank you again Stuart”


About: Nice to meet you! My name is Isabella. I am a lifelong animal lover with deep experience caring for a wide range of pets. Most recently, I provided attentive, full-time care for two dogs and five cats over the course of a month in a family household whilst they were on vacation. This included feeding, walking, frequent bathroom breaks, playtime, litter box maintenance, and administering both oral and topical medications with care and precision. And of course, plenty of cuddles with furry friends. I’ve been surrounded by cats since I was in the cradle and have raised multiple kittens throughout my life, giving me a strong understanding of feline needs at every life stage. I currently care for my senior kitty, whose special needs have made me especially attentive, patient, and skilled in administering medications and monitoring health cues. I have had dogs of my own as well and have similar comfort in canine medication needs. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs of all ages and most temperaments. I always follow each pet’s lead, respecting their boundaries, and reading their body language and communication to ensure they feel safe, seen, and loved. Whether large or small, energetic or shy, I treat every animal as if they were my own—with affection, respect, and a deep sense of responsibility. As I have a (human) psychology BA, I try to apply this knowledge in pet sitting. Each pet is an individual, just like people! I currently work as a paraeducator for elementary students. As a senior cat owner myself, pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s not just a job, but a commitment I’ve built my life around. With several years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I’ve developed a structured schedule that ensures every pet receives consistent, personalized attention. My day typically starts early with morning feedings and pet space maintenence, and I plan my daily activities around each pet's individual needs, whether it’s administering medication, cleaning litter boxes, longer walks, or providing enrichment and companionship. When providing in-home care, I adapt fully to each pet’s routine to keep them as comfortable and stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I also build in regular text/call and photo updates for pet parents so they feel connected and reassured. Pet care isn’t something I fit in—it’s something I prioritize, and I approach it with the same dedication every day of the week. I primarily care for pets in my clients’ homes, which allows me to maintain their routines in a familiar, low-stress environment. I take the time to understand each pet’s specific needs—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise, or playtime—and I follow their routine as closely as possible to provide consistency and comfort. For dogs, that often includes daily walks, backyard or park play, and structured downtime. For cats, I focus on litter box maintenance, interactive play, and creating calm, cozy spaces. I also provide lots of affection and companionship tailored to each pet’s personality. (And if permitted, yummy treats). In every case, I treat each home with the utmost respect, keeping spaces clean and tidy, and I keep pet parents updated with regular messages and photos so they always know their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: With over a decade of hands-on experience, including extensive work at a rescue barn and shadowing at a veterinary hospital throughout my life, I bring a wealth of knowledge in caring for a variety of beloved pets. My expertise spans from horses to dogs, cats, and even exotic reptiles and birds. Since the age of 10, I have been walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for neighbors' and friends' pets. These responsibilities have fostered a deep understanding of their unique needs and preferences. When pets are with me, their comfort and needs come first, and I ensure to care for them in the best way possible. I work part-time, allowing me plenty of availability for your pet. With adequate notice, I can come to your house or have your pet come to mine any day of the week. Additionally, I can visit in the morning and at night as needed. At home, I share my life with two dogs and a cat, all of whom enjoy the spacious comfort of our expansive backyard and the security of being crate trained. This personal connection fuels my passion for ensuring every pet under my care receives not just attention, but genuine affection and tailored care to keep them happy, healthy, and content.

About: I have spent a lot of time with a variety of animals, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats. I will cater my service best to them! I am free all day to aid with your pet’s needs! I am able to drop by or stay with your pet for a period of time per day, whichever works! I like to ensure your pet is comfortable with me before leaving. Also I ensure that your pet could have an enjoyable time while you’re away!

“Jamie is awesome! He was extremely professional and friendly in our first meeting, gave us some great general tips for new puppies, and has been very lenient with his time. He sends updates from every visit as well as pictures and spent some great, quality time with our dog. He has been a lifesaver for when my wife and I are at work and don’t want to leave our dog home alone for extended periods of time. I couldn’t recommend him enough.”


About: My name is Kayla M. and I am 25 years old! I have been volunteering at a vet since I was 10 and began working there at 16. I am absolutely a dog lover and will love your dogs just as much as you do! Having three dogs on my own, I am constantly taking care of them. I love to take my dogs for walks, meet up with friends at the dog park, and give them lots of love and attention. I am a very caring, kind and patient dog sitter and will take care of your pets like they are my own! I am available full-time this summer! Any dates/times work for me. I’m very flexible! I will be going back to school in the fall so will not have as much availability starting late August I am willing to walk your pets, bathe, feed, and provide sitting! I also have experience with training specifically with puppies, so I am up for the challenge!

About: Almost always available to pet sit and walk, please read more for details! I have personal and professional experience pet sitting for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. Through working various jobs/ internships, I am good at following strict regimens for feeding, going outside, and any other responsibilities asked of me. My love for animals started when I was little - I grew up with one St. Bernard and one Labrador Retriever, learning how to interact with animals as a child. When my older sisters would pet sit, I would come along with them to help and see the animals (as a child, I mostly just wanted to go because they were so cute!). I also love visiting shelters to interact with the pets and give them well-deserved attention. I will not be available Memorial Day weekend. I’m currently working part-time on a very flexible schedule. I can most likely work around your pet’s schedule as long as there is notice a few days in advance! I prioritize observing an animal’s behavior with me and with its environment. I also try my best to form a connection with the animal so that taking care of it is less stressful for both parties. I would love to meet the owner and their pet prior to sitting, over call or in person, and enough in advance so that the sitter can have time to decide if another person is a better fit. If I believe caring for a specific pet is out of my expertise, then I will not accept a job as safety is my first priority.

“Molly is amazing! She’s so nice and good with animals. She’s very knowledgeable and I immediately felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. She is reliable and a true pleasure to work with!”

Jolene W.
“My wife and I weren't expecting much after our last sitter abandoned us, but Jolene came in and really raised the bar high. She doesn't just do the minimum like other dog sitters. She's familiar with grooming and training and is always ready for whatever we ask of her. We wouldn't really consider our dog a handful (Frompy is a little pug who likes to take naps), but Jolene really brought out our dogs curious and playful side and now he's always eager to see who's at the door.”

I have 2 dogs, 1 cat and chickens (she helps with the coop too!). My pets LOVE Dee because she's attentive and calm and loving.”

On our last engagement, I forgot to buy kitty litter before I left so I left some extra money and Claire went and got litter for us. Our pets are always well-cared for with her!”
