“Azariah is the best! She accommodated last minute and my girls loved her! They are dog reactive and have to be walk separately and Azariah had no problem either. She’s the sweetest and communicated well with me. 10/10 will recommend and will be using her again”

She is a total professional and gives us such peace of mind. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.”

About: I am a long time animal lover with a large verity of pet care experience! I’ve looked after Yorkies, Great Danes and everything in between, owned both dogs and cats of my own (currently have 3 cats), and have been walking, sitting and fostering dogs since I was a teenager. Been through training courses with dogs so I’m familiar with training practices and I’ve also cared for pets that were sick or injured, administered medicine and cared for wounds. I love both cats and dogs and have always been great with all pets!! I’d love to meet your furry friends and help out! My schedule is pretty flexible, I just work some evenings. I’m here to help & to support my small creative business and make ends meet, I am so excited to have the opportunity to spend time with your pets! As a caretaker for your pets I am more than happy to come to your home and visit them in the comfort of their own space! I will always be tidy and respectful. I’m happy to walk, play, feed, groom or whatever your pets needs are!

About: I’m not just a dog sitter—I’m a calming, comforting presence your pup can rely on. With patience, affection, and a natural ability to put dogs at ease, I create an stress-free, loving environment that feels like home. Ps. I own a 6 months old mini Aussie. He’s 15 pounds and very playful and friendly with other dogs ◡̈ I currently work from home with flexible hours so I have plenty of time to spare. My daily routine allows me to manage being available and home to take care of the pups I provide a safe, calm, and dependable environment where pets feel completely secure. I prioritize consistency, gentle handling, and close attention to each pet’s needs, creating a trustworthy space where they can relax, feel understood, and thrive while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was a child as my family had a farm when I was growing up. I have also rescued most of the animals that I’ve had and wish to rescue way more in the future. I’m currently enrolled in Schoolcraft community college studying nursing. I don’t have a job at the moment and have a lot of time on my hands so I would love to take care of your precious babies I actually will not be able to take care of your pets at my house as I do have some pets that don’t get along with other animals so I wouldn’t want to take the risk but I would love to come to your house and take care of your pets and walk them and look after them exactly how you want me to

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life. Small, medium, and large sized dogs, young and elderly dogs, dogs with low energy levels and dogs with high energy levels. I used to pet sit for my neighbors as well, including one neighbor who had two mastiffs and a dalmatian, and another neighbor with a chronically ill dog prone to accidents. I loved them all! I love to go on walks during my free time, so I’d love to walk to visit your pet, or take them along with me. I work part time on a flexible schedule and can easily fit most visit schedules into my day. I take the time to earn an animal’s trust, and go at a speed they’re comfortable with. If your animal wants me to pet and lay with them and brush them and play with them or anything else, I’m there! If your pet is more lowkey or independent, I check in on them and make sure they have everything they need. I look to care for your specific pet, not just check in and call it a day.

About: CCS Grad Student based West Village. Grew up in a Shitzu home, but I only get to see her on weekends. However, I've been taking care of small dogs and pet-sitting dogs and cats for fam/friends for the last 4 years. I'm a full-time grad student, so aside from evening or afternoon classes, I'm flexible. Morning and/or Evening walking + feeding schedules are no issue. I’m a morning person! I've cared for pets in my own home or their own, and my primary focus is always making sure they are comfortable. Usually, that means trying my best to follow their normal routines.

I work 9-5 but can work around that schedule & am free on weekends! I love to take my dog on long walks, and love to hangout with cats and play with them. In my home I take very good care of my pets and check on them often.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and was the proud pet parent of a Yorkie-Poodle named Jazz, who was my best friend and companion for 15 wonderful years. Saying goodbye to him in 2019 was one of the hardest things I've ever experienced, but caring for him taught me that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs—and that they deserve to be treated with patience, kindness, and love. Professionally, I own a client-focused business where trust, reliability, and attention to detail are essential every day. Those same qualities carry over into the way I care for pets. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I provide dog walks and drop-in visits in your home, where your pet can remain comfortable in the environment they know and love. Before our first visit, I take the time to learn about your pet's routine, personality, preferences, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide care that's tailored to their individual needs. During each visit, I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, exercise, playtime, and any other care your pet needs. Whether your pet enjoys an energetic walk, a favorite toy, quiet companionship, or simply extra affection, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I believe consistency is important, so I strive to keep your pet's normal routine as uninterrupted as possible. I'll always ensure your pet's safety and well-being by paying close attention to their behavior and surroundings, while treating your home with the same care and respect I would expect in my own. Communication is just as important as great pet care, so you'll receive updates and photos after each visit, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I do not offer overnight stays, and medication requests are considered on a case-by-case basis to ensure I can safely meet your pet's needs. My goal is simple: to provide dependable, compassionate care so your pet feels loved, comfortable, and secure, while giving you complete confidence that they're in caring, trustworthy hands. I look forward to meeting you and providing your beloved companion the same kindness, patience, and unconditional love that made my 15 years with Jazz so special. Pet care is something I intentionally build into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walks while balancing my other professional responsibilities. I carefully schedule each visit so every pet receives the time, attention, companionship, exercise, and consistency they deserve. My goal is to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable, cared for, and confident while they're apart. Because I provide care in my clients' homes, my goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and secure in the environment they know best. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and preferences, so I take the time to carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other special requests. Safety is always my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before every walk, and I remain attentive to my surroundings to help keep pets safe. I also pay close attention to each pet's body language and comfort level, allowing them to build trust with me at their own pace. As a small business owner, I understand the importance of professionalism, reliability, and respecting my clients' homes. I will treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect in my own, leaving it just as I found it. I believe communication is just as important as great pet care, so I'll provide updates and photos during my visits to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for every pet to feel loved, cared for, and comfortable, and for every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in dependable, compassionate hands.
