Dog Sitting in Riverhead

About: I have always worked with animals ever since I was little. I grew up around a farm and took care of various small pets. I also have experience cat sitting and dog sitting from some friends. I have my own elderly dog who needs accommodations, so I’m ready for any task needed! I go to college mostly online, but I do have a class or two in person some days. I’m able to drop in whenever because I’ll be very much free. I can give your pet some comfort and take care of them while you’re gone! I love to go on walks and play with any furry friend!

“Pleasure to work with. Showes up on time and I can tell from the pictures my dogs are having a great time. Great to find someone reliable who will love my babies like I do.”

“Donald is very reliable! When I realized my 4 month old puppy needed a different schedule than I thought he adjusted the time he came and added an extra drop in a day to make sure our girl was well taken care of. He is always on time, and gives our puppy his full attention. I think they are going to be best friends quick. Will definitely continue to work with Donald. It is a big relief knowing she’s taken care of while I’m at work.”

About: I have had large dogs my entire life and over the past ten years have also had cats. I have raised Newfoundlands, Bernese mountain dogs, and Manx cats. I have also taken care of many different breeds of dogs and cats for friends and family. Bijons, King Charles Cavalier, Labs, Goldens, St Bernard’s, Ragdolls, Siamese. You name it, I’ve seen them before. Big, small, young, old I am comfortable with any pet breed. I am a young lawyer who does pet sitting on the side as I love animals. I work full time during the week with floating remote days giving me potential flexibility during the week. I am off on the weekends but can stop to take care of pups or cats on my way home from work during the week and anytime on the weekends. My own property had a fenced in yard. My cats are indoor cats. We feed our pets in the morning and dinner time. Depending on your needs I am flexible to your pets needs. I am a Lawyer full time and this is a side job for me as I love animals.

About: I am a public school teacher so I am available Monday-Friday after 3pm and weekends/holidays. I have loved animals since I was a small child and have owned dogs and cats ever since. I have experience taking care of older animals and giving medications and special dietary restrictions. Pets are our family and I will treat all animals with the love and care they deserve since they give us humans more than we could ever hope for. I will send you pictures/videos if you are missing your pets and keep in close contact via text with updates as well. I have always wanted to help animals and I thought this is a good way to start! All of my fur babies are rescue animals and if we could we would adopt them all! I look forward to lending a paw to you and your fur babies! I am a school teacher so I am mainly available weekdays after 3:00pm and all day most weekends. I am also available during school breaks/vacations such as December break, February break and very available in the summer months July and August. We have a fenced in yard on an acre of property and a dog who loves to play with other dogs. We have plenty of outside toys for enrichment too! My husband and I both work full time jobs and are currently available for drop-ins and dog walking services. I am a teacher and am available most days after 3:00pm Monday-Friday and am more available on the weekends. Once we buy a house we are hoping to upgrade our services to be boarding services in our home. Once we buy a house, we are hoping to offer boarding services where we can host your pets in our home. We have one dog and two cats currently. We would keep the dogs and cats separated from each other and make sure to have a meet and greet with the dogs so that we know they will play well and get along well beforehand. I am a public school teacher. My availability is Monday-Friday after 3pm and weekends/holidays. Send me a message and I’ll see what I can do! I believe play time is important for pets. I’d love to throw a tennis ball for your dog or twirl a mouse on a stick for your cats in addition to the usual feeding them, letting them out to use the bathroom.

“We use Jerol & Jeffrey for drop-in visits and Jerol has taken great care of our pup. He is reliable and makes sure she is happy and gets plenty of exercise. He is also very knowledgeable and experienced and we know she is in great hands when he’s caring for her. We highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Jules, and I’ve had pets my whole life and would love to help out fellow pet lovers. I’m currently located in Laurel, NY. Will be available weekdays and as needed. On the days I sit, your pets will be my number one priority. I look forward to meeting everyone and their sweet pets.

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life and bring a calm, attentive, and personalized approach to every animal I watch. I understand that each pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to adjust my care to fit their needs—whether that means playful energy, quiet companionship, or a little extra patience. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats, including senior pets and those who may need medication, and I’m very mindful about keeping their environment clean, safe, and stress-free. I also have experience in multi-pet households, so I’m comfortable managing different temperaments while making sure every pet feels secure and cared for. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine, and I’m home most of the week to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care. I keep a consistent schedule with potty breaks, meals, playtime, and rest, making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I’m only away briefly once a week, and I always plan around that to make sure pets are still well taken care of. I truly enjoy being present with them, creating a calm, loving environment where they can feel relaxed, safe, and happy. I create a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and at ease. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and personality, making sure to follow all care instructions and keep things as consistent as possible for them. In my home, pets are always supervised, and I take care with introductions and space to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I’m very mindful of safety, from secure spaces to feeding routines and behavior monitoring. My goal is to provide a calm, stress-free environment where pets feel safe, respected, and truly cared for.

I have a fully fenced in backyard with a back door access, I have also had my friends and family dogs in my household for extended periods with great success.

About: Hi there! My name is Kevin and I’ve been dog walking and dog sitting for over 10 years. In my experience pet sitting, I would take the dogs on long walks, play fetch, go to a park or even on runs depending on how active the dog is. I would also go over for drop in feedings and bathroom breaks. I’ve been told plenty of times how I must be a dog whisperer since all dogs would gravitate towards me and love me! I am a flight attendant and my schedule will vary monthly but I tend to have mostly similar days & times off with my seniority. I am flexible job permitting and will always find time throughout my schedule to stay active which will be perfect for your dog to accompany on walks. I have experience with small, medium and large dogs. I always do whatever the pet parents request before leaving (leave dog in designated area of the house, wipe feet before entering back into the house, etc.)

“I used Tania yesterday for a drop in visit to let the dogs out and feed them because we were going to be gone a long time. She followed my directions beautifully with never meeting us. I would definitely use her again!!”

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!

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: For the past 13 years, I have dedicated myself to understanding, caring for, and building trust with dogs. I've had dogs pretty since I was a young child. My journey really began with my first dog I owned as a adult, a spirited Black Labrador Retriever named Duncan. Through Duncan, I learned the basics of dog care, training, and the importance of daily exercise. Over the years, I have encountered dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Each dog is unique, and I have honed my skills to adapt to their individual needs. Whether it's a high-energy Border Collie needing intense playtime or a shy rescue dog requiring gentle encouragement, I am adept at providing the right care and attention, ensuring that every dog I walk is safe and well-behaved. I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional dog walking services. Your dog's happiness and well-being are my utmost priorities, and I look forward to the opportunity to share my passion with you and your furry friend. I'm currently working full time in Mattituck NY in the agriculture business. I'm available for dog walking from 5:30pm on as well as weekend mornings and afternoons. The safety and well-being of the dogs I walk are my top priorities. I am well-versed in recognizing signs of distress, potential hazards, and understanding canine body language. My walks are structured to provide not only physical exercise but also mental stimulation, ensuring that each dog returns home happy and relaxed.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a little girl. My family, friends and neighborhood has held me reliable for walking, playing, feeding & letting out animals. I am currently a full-time college student living at home. I only go to school for short hours during the day 4 times a week, so I have plenty of time to play with your beloved animals.
