“Dyese was great with our cat, Earl. She did daily home visits while we were away, which included feeding him, changing his litter, and keeping him company. Dyese gave us photo updates and detailed summary of her visit each time. It was great knowing he was in good hands.”


About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a baby. I am retired detective with plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. From walking and playing I am full of energy. I currently have my own dachshund pitbull mix puppy so I also have experience with young pups. We just adopted her after our senior pup (15.5 years old) passed. He was a love and left a whole in our hearts only another furbaby could help heal. I am retired and fully available to help take care of your pups! My hours are super flexible so hopefully that makes life easier on your schedule I have lots of experience and can either play or walk your pup. Whether it be on a leash for a fun walk or just play time in the yard. Your dog and I will have tons of fun
About: Hi there! I’m Adrianna (or Adi for short), and I believe that pets aren't just animals—they are family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your best friend behind, which is why my goal is to provide a nurturing environment filled with belly rubs, long walks, and endless love. Whether we are playing fetch or cuddling up for an afternoon nap, your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I am always open to discussing any additional support that your pet may need. I am currently employed but mostly work from home, so my schedule is flexible and can work around any pet’s needs—provide an extra walk, an extra cuddle session: you name it! I have a large fenced in yard that provides my animals with safe spaces for exercise. I also have a pet water fountain inside the home to promote hydration especially during the summer months. My pets always get a breakfast and dinner, though each is tailored to their specific dietary needs. Playtime is a must in my household, and my pets always receive interactive stimulation to keep their minds and bodies healthy.
“Couldn’t recommend Kathryn more! We have two giant and energetic labs - She sent us videos every day of them having fun together. Can definitely meet any type of service you’re looking for.”

I’m available Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday in the afternoon! Im comfortable with staying at your home for up to two weeks at a time.

“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 loved dogs and have found as of late I am so drawn to them. They bring a joy and fulfillment to my life no job ever has. I have started learning more about training and nutrition on my own in recent months. I have an 11 year old chihuahua nicknamed Napoleon for her lovely chihuahua temperament; whom I’ve raised since 6 weeks and a shepherd - pit mix we welcomed into our family at 6 weeks as well, he’s turned 1 Oct 2023. I make the majority of my dogs food and treats at home. I have 3 school aged kids and a husband who works a lot. I am looking for something emotionally fulfilling as well as something to boost my physical activity, especially in the upcoming cold season. I am available during the day most days from 9-3 and occasional evenings and weekends. Fairly flexible in my availability depending on how local the gig. My pup is super friendly and in training learning to interact with other dogs as well as follow commands. My chihuahua typically keeps to herself she’s so tiny even when other dogs notice her they tend to leave her be. I have a fenced in 1/2 acre as well as the ability to chain them for short periods(specifically escape artists) as well as a large crate and smaller gate setups. I am affectionate and friendly and I’ve never met a dog who doesn’t love me back.
About: I am a professional dog walker and pet sitter with over twenty years of hands on experience caring for animals. I recently moved to Suffolk County, New York from the Upper West Side of Manhattan after closing my small business in the city. Long Island has been an amazing change for us and we truly love being here. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and have shaped my career for more than two decades. Now that I work from home, I find myself really missing the daily connection with pets. I am certified in pet grooming and have experience in animal behavior as well as light training. I love teaching dogs fun tricks like giving kisses and building trust with them through patience and consistency. I also have experience working as a veterinary technician and receptionist, which has given me a strong understanding of animal health and communication with pet owners. I still maintain several wonderful clients from my time in Manhattan and I am excited to grow my services here in Suffolk County and meet new dogs and their families. About This Sitter Animals have always been my passion for as long as I can remember. I never imagined how far this path would take me, but I truly cannot picture myself doing anything else. Caring for pets feels natural and rewarding to me, and I am grateful every day to be part of their lives. Why I Love Dog Sitting I have loved dogs since the first time I was able to have one of my own. The more I learn about different breeds and personalities, the more my appreciation grows. Every dog has its own temperament and charm, and getting to know them is one of my favorite parts of this work. Meet My Pets In loving memory of Miah. Jenna is currently my active little companion. They are two beautiful Chihuahuas who have filled my life with joy and laughter. About My Home We live in a small four bedroom house in Coram with a backyard that offers space for fresh air and outdoor time. My Experience Administering Medication Yes. I am comfortable giving oral medications only. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available most weekdays and weekends, especially afternoons and evenings. Since I am home often, I can provide consistent attention, walks, feeding schedules, and check ins without rushing. I live in a small four bedroom home in Coram with a backyard where dogs can safely get fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, pets are never left unattended for long periods and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I have over twenty years of experience working with animals, including veterinary office experience, so I am very observant of behavior changes and health concerns. I also have one senior toothless small house dog who is gentle and used to other pets, but I always introduce animals slowly and respectfully based on their comfort level.
About: I have grown up with 4 dogs maximum in my house. I am super comfortable around any dog. Sweet, kind, aggressive, scared, anxious and whatever else you have to throw at me! I love dogs of all age! Puppies and old fur babies will be loved the same! Let’s connect! I am fairly open and will constantly communicate. I work at a dentist office and I clean pools in the summer! I’m also doing my masters online. I keep the house in the condition it was left to me, I’m able to take out the trash, water flowers and bring in mail. I will fully be in communication with the owners. The animals will always have their breakfast, dinner and treats! If medicine is needed, I will try my best to give that to them. Walks and playing in the backyard is a must! I am more than happy to share the bed with them as well. The most important factor is the endless cuddles!
“Great cat sitters! Thir dedication & passion is evident. I knew my Gypsy was in good hands & didn't worry. They really go the extra mile, too. Highly recimmend.”

About: Extensive experience as a medical professional in the veterinary world, medicating, treating, and working with all sorts of creatures! Looking forward to serving my community in a greater capacity. Extremely flexible schedule with room to grow. Weekends are filled with walks, boarding, and drop ins, weekdays are mostly filled with drop ins. Available daily and can’t wait to send you photos of your pets and I having a blast. Our dogs, cats, and birds all enjoy the spoils of being our only kids. My husband and I would do anything for our fur children and continue to get creative and landscape, furnish, and construct the best ways to keep our babies happy and healthy.
About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and have had Bernese Mountain Dogs since I was born, including having three Bernese at one time. Caring for large dogs has given me extensive experience with feeding schedules, walks, grooming needs, exercise, and providing attentive care. In addition to dogs, I have also raised two bunnies and two hamsters, giving me experience with small animals and understanding the importance of patience and gentle care. Currently, I care for one Bernese Mountain Dog, one bunny, and two French Bulldogs. My lifelong experience with both large and small pets helps set me apart as someone who is comfortable, reliable, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. I’m currently home for the summer from college so most of my days are free. I am currently working part time, two days a week at night. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In both my home and a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide fresh water at all times, give pets plenty of exercise and attention, and make sure they have a clean environment. I am experienced caring for both large and small animals, so I understand that each pet has different needs and personalities

About: I’ve been animal lover for as long as I can remember. From reptiles to puppies to birds I treat every animal with love and respect. Due to never having an ideal living situation to be caring pets, I’ve never had a pet of my own. However, I’ve always been surrounded by my friends, families, coworkers and neighbors pets. I have watched cared for their pets at my home, their home and even just out and about many times over the years. This has given me experience with a countless amount of pets of all kind and I fall in love with each and every one! I’d love to spread that love a little further to all who will allow me to share :) I work a part-time job at the moment and I’m looking to fill my extra time with something I love. I’ll have more than enough time to devote my utmost attention to your loved one! I’m also athletic myself so even the high energy fur balls get the best of me! I am very big on boundaries and structure. I will make sure to follow any guidelines that you already have in place for your pet.
About: I’ve been around dogs for basically my whole life and I’ve always loved animals. I’ve been taking care of my own pets- walking, feeding, bathing, training, etc- for as long as I can remember. More recently I’ve taken care of friends pets while their owners are away- including dogs, cats, and a bunny. In these instances I was responsible for checking in on the pets a few times a day to feed them, let them outside, refill water, and give them lots of love and attention. I have also volunteered to dog walk at a few local shelters. I’m currently home from college for the summer and I have a lot of free time. I have a few short trips that are blocked out on my calendar and should be available otherwise. When walking dogs I try to always be aware of my surroundings and be on the lookout for cars, other dogs, or wild animals. My own dog can be a bit sneaky and is a big chewer so I know how important it is to be vigilant when watching dogs. I’ve also had a reactive dog in the past so I’m confident in my abilities to distract and remove a dog from a hostile situation. I’m always interested in learning more about proper pet care and have spent time researching pet safe foods and activities for my own pets. My goal is always to give a pet the best care possible.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, both small and big! I absolutely love furry friends and have one of my own. I have a small, older cockapoo named Riley and I’ve taken care of him since he was a puppy and I was in 8th grade - I actually had to pitch an entire care plan to let my mom allow me to have him! I work entirely from home and have a calm, quiet environment. I work entirely from home and have breaks throughout the day where I’d be able to play with your furry friend! I work both during the day and overnight, and will be able to tend to your dogs needs hourly at the very least! I have a fenced yard and a small cockapoo who is calm and friendly. I have a small crate as well if that is supportive for your pup! My home is calm and stress-free. You can count on regular updates, photos, and honest communication while your pup is in my care!

About: Hi! I’m Chelsea, owner of Paws By Chels. I offer reliable drop-in visits, walks, and personalized boarding with a calm, low-stress environment for your pets. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even small farm animals like chickens, and I truly treat every animal like family. I specialize in drop-in care for busy owners who want their pets to stay comfortable in their own home while still receiving plenty of attention, exercise, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and love while you’re away. For boarding, I offer three private suites/rooms to help keep your dog comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free. I am crate-free unless your dog is already crate trained and comfortable using one. My goal is to provide a safe, cozy, home-style environment where pets feel secure and cared for. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pets with someone, so I always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, attentive, and responsive. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine. I make time in the mornings and evenings for walks, feedings, and playtime, and I love building my schedule around making sure pups get the attention they deserve. On weekends, I’m extra flexible and can spend more time outdoors for longer walks, adventures, or just keeping your dog company. Whether it’s sticking to a set routine or adding a little extra play, I make sure caring for pets fits seamlessly into my day. In my home, pets get a safe, cozy environment where they’re treated like family. I stick to their feeding schedule, provide plenty of potty breaks, and make sure they get playtime, walks, and snuggles. If they’re crated, I keep them comfortable and on their normal routine so they feel at ease. In a client’s home, I always respect your space and your pet’s routine. I make sure food, water, walks, and potty breaks happen right on schedule, and I give them the attention and love they’d get if you were home. I keep things clean, send updates and photos, and make sure your pup feels secure until you return.
