About: I grew up with my grandfather breeding German Sheppards and my family having 4 turtles, 2 cats, 2 hamsters and a dog. I love all animals. I work from home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I am usually home most weekends. I am almost always available if you reach out to me I can make it work with my schedule. I have tons of experience with cats and dogs, I was trained at Tri Borough Animal Welfare to take care of the pitties and kitties for their shelter program.

First time I have used a pet sitter for my 2 pups, I had Lidia come over for 2 drop in visits while I was away for Thanksgiving day. She followed the instructions I left to the tee and kept me updated on how Dante and Preston were doing. I could not be happier with the job she did and will book her again when needed.

About: Hi everyone! I have been taking care of pets my whole life and have loved every minute of it. I have had a German shepherd and currently have a pitbull and cat so my experience is vast with all breeds and sizes! I love all of my fur babies and have some training experience as well! My dogs throughout my life have been very high energy so I am used to taking care of breeds that need to be exercised more frequently and require more attention. :) I usually work a normal schedule from 9-5 pm but my week nights and mornings are always free as well as my weekends! My schedule is quite flexible! My animals are always on a schedule and are monitored by a camera to ensure they are safe. I always keep the place clean and am constantly ensuring the house is cat/dog proof.

About: I'm a dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether your furry friend needs a playful companion, a snuggle buddy, or someone to make sure they get their daily exercise, I'm here to help. I also have experience with puppy training, so don't worry if your pup isn't fully house trained. I understand that every dog is unique, with their own personality, needs, and quirks. That's why I take the time to get to know your pup and tailor my care to suit their needs. I will ensure your dog feels loved, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available during the week and on weekends to care for your pets. Just let me know what you need! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pug and orange cat to keep your dog company. When providing walks or drop in visits with your pet, I can also assist with bringing in mail or watering plants.

Tucker arrived on time which was very appreciated. He greeted both dogs warmly and they were very excited to see him. I have 2 large breed dogs and Tucker handled them expertly. He praised them for obeying and was very affectionate with them. He took them for a jog as requested and both dogs came back tired in the best way. They now are both taking a nap. I would highly recommend Tucker!!!

About: I am an animal lover since childhood! We have screened in outdoor areas plus over 3 acres of yard. I have been a sitter of friends and family dogs for years, both at home and in their homes. I'm currently at home full time and have the opportunity to offer at home service to take care of other animals or I may end up adopting too many! I currently have 1 dog (7yrs) and 1 cat (12yrs) I have a large yard to walk your dog as well as a fenced in area where the dogs can play with my very friendly large dog, or I can crate them as well. Whatever makes them most comfortable.

Deanna was absolutely amazing with Lokina and even my cat come out to say hello (which he never does with strangers.) Loki had such a great fun time on the walks with Deanna. This was my first time using the app, and she walked me through it. Daily pictures and good communication the whole time I was away. She made sure Loki’s food/water bowls were always full and locked up once done. If we go on vacation again 100% I trust her with my babies and recommend her to anyone.

About: When I was little I had three cats, I now have a dog whom I care for. And for the last ten years I have cared for my neighbors cat and dog when they go away. I am a college student with free time on my hands and would love to spend it caring for your pet! I currently work part time and go to school full time, but I usually still have large amounts of time on my hands, and would love to spend it caring for your pet! On walks I make sure your pet gets plenty of time to sniff and fresh air, while following your preferences and avoiding unsafe areas. During drop on visits I will give your pet lots of attention, and give them plenty of food and water while following your instructions closely.

Christine has been a loving cat and dog owner herself. She has taken care and walked my two dogs. They both love her. She gives them the love, attention, and affection that they need. It’s so hard to find someone that cares for your dogs like you do, but Christine does just an amazing job. My dogs are always excited to see her. Highly recommend Christine and her abilities to take care of any type of dog, big or small.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing firsthand just how much Marco genuinely cares for animals. Whether it’s going out of his way to greet every dog we see on walks, or taking time to understand each pet’s personality, his love for animals is obvious. He’s responsible, patient, and always makes sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. He’s also great at following routines, sticking to feeding or walking schedules, and communicating clearly—traits that make him a natural fit for pet sitting. I’ve watched him care for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, and he always treats them like family. Any pet would be lucky to spend time with him!
