About: About Me! And Why Choose Me! Hi, I’m Aziza — a caring and reliable pet sitter serving the Belle Harbor/ Rockaway Park area. I have always loved animals, since I can remember. I grew up with 3 cats, two dogs, turtles and lizards throughout my life. I’m comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always make sure they get the exercise, attention, and love they need. Over the past few years, I also fostered several cats before adopting my own two. Many of my fosters came to me shy and scared, and I’ve had great success helping them feel safe, build trust, and settle into new environments with confidence. I’m available most weekdays and flexible on weekends. I keep my calendar up to date with time blocks for when I’m available, so booking is easy and transparent. When caring for your pets, I’m attentive, punctual, and treat them like my own. I make sure they’re fed on time, walked or played with, and always safe — I’m careful with doors, mindful of their surroundings, and happy to give medication if needed. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or just looking for some company, I’ll meet them where they are. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! I am available for walks/ check ins most of the time. I do work a few nights a week but I will be updating my calendar and we can work out an arrangement for repeat visits / walks I always make sure your pets are fed on time, walked and played with. I always make sure to close the outside doors quickly after I enter so there’s no chance of your pet accidentally escaping. I’m always mindful of the surroundings. I genuinely enjoy making sure your pet is having a good time by engaging them in playing or just petting them. I am also punctual and experienced with giving your pets medication if they require it.
About: I respect all animals, and have a particular love for cats and kittens. I’ve taken care of puppies, cats, and reptiles for over five years. I can be relied on to look after your pet… feed them, play with them, do a little pet yoga, and keep an eye on them for you. I’ll have plenty of time to be with your pet and give them one on one attention. I work part time and work from home. I have a dedicated space for my pet guests, giving them leisure of my living room area and there is a large gated space in the back of my residence if your pet needs outside time.
“Very reliable, great Communication. Highly recommend!”
About: I LOVE all animals, which means I love YOUR pet!! I have had the pleasure of caring for dogs, & cats for more than half of my life, and hopefully for the rest of it. I recently moved to New York with a furry friend of my own and I’m looking for some new best friends to spoil and exersize with! I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of time to spend keeping your furry friend happy, and tending to any of their special needs. The love I have for my dog is pretty close to the love a parent has for a child, and I will love your fur-baby the same. My weekly routine is centered around spending time with my fur baby. I have plenty of time for walks and parks, and I even make my own organic dog treats!! I’m very attentive to what each specific pet needs and wants to do! I’ve got plenty of time on my hands for playing, scratches, exercise, lounging and cuddles. I can administer medicine and special care if your pet has special needs.
About: I’m always someone my sister and best friend can count on to watch their respective dogs when they’re out of town, plus I enjoy every moment with them, whether it be dog parks, regular walks, or just hanging out bonding together. I’m a firefighter on the peninsula, so my schedule and availability are very convenient for walking dogs at a short moment’s notice. I am willing to walk dogs at all times of the week when I’m not at my firehouse. At the moment, I’d like to just walk dogs. This may include using any areas that the owner approves of, such as dog parks, the promenade, the ocean shore, certain blocks, etc for their exercise. But in the future, when I expand into sitting, I’d use my own apartment to make them as comfortable as possible with a bed, toys, and snacks.
“We are repeat bookers of Abby and big fans. She’s the best!”
About: I’ve raised my dog since she was 3 months old. She battled an autoimmune disease, and I cared for her through medications, special diets, and recovery. That experience gave me a deep understanding of medical care, patience, and what it means to truly show up for a pet. I treat every dog like my own—with love, attentiveness, and a calm, caring presence. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work as a substitute paraprofessional with the Department of Education, which gives me a flexible schedule during the school year and full availability in the summer. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company throughout the day. With my open summer schedule, I’m especially available for longer stays or more frequent visits. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide consistent, loving care tailored to each pet’s routine. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, clean space, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I maintain their routine and create a familiar, stress-free environment. I treat every pet like family and ensure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times.
About: I have several years of experience with dogs. I have pet-sat for family, friends and neighbors throughout this time. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats. I currently am a hybrid worker, therefore I have time and flexibility to petsit. My day consists of making calls and writing notes. (Kinda boring) i know lol I have a friendly 2 year old morkie at home who can be crated if needed. I also have a spare 3rd room as well. But more than likely, everything will be great because my Morkie identifies with being a human, not a dog. I also have a fenced backyard. I live on a dead end block(not too much foot traffic) and I am a couple of blocks form the boardwalk where I anticipate having our walks.
“Iwona was excellent with Ein, my dog, and also a great communicator. She was able to do a last minute walk and really got me out of a jam, and was super fast at responding to my inquiry. My dog was happy! I'd happily book her again!”

“Tatiana was fantastic! We booked her for dog walking the day before we needed her, as it was very last-minute. Despite the short notice, she was incredibly accommodating and even came to meet our pup the same day we booked her. This thoughtful gesture made sure our Etta wasn’t surprised by a stranger when we weren’t home. Tatiana kept us updated when she arrived, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our girl was in good hands. Her care and attention to detail were truly outstanding—we highly recommend her!”

I can work at your schedule. Please feel free to let me know your schedule or routine. I live in a complex with open yard. I live in a town house setting with two children.

About: I had my own dog for 15 years who I cared for. During that time and after, I have walked and pet sat for my friends, neighbors, and other members of my families dogs. I have work with dogs of all ages and sizes! Currently in Graduate School. My schedule is flexible, just let me know what you are looking for and we can work together to make a plan! It requires patience and compassion to form trusting bonds with dogs, and that's what I try to focus on first & foremost when starting a new relationship with dogs I am working with. They usually warm up to me pretty quickly, but if not it simply requires more time and gentle attention to earn their trust.

“Aza is a diligent dog-sitter with a knack for taking care of animals; Among our friend group, she's the go-to for all advice on cats and dogs, and always goes out of her way to check up on her childhood dog back home She just has a very special connection with animals in general, I really gained perspective on that when I saw her calm a stranger's horse during a horseback ride. She also has two cats that she adopted as strays, and she's raised them to be very fun and loving. You really can't go wrong with trusting her with your pets.”

Destinee R.
“I’ve known Destinee for over ten years and I’ve always known her to be an honest and responsible person of good character. She’s always owned and loved dogs and recently has raised her own pup - Beau - who has grown up to be a friendly, well trained, and lovable pet. Her compassionate nature and intelligence would prove to be an asset for whoever entrusts her with their own pup babies.”
Brian B.
“Brian has taken exceptional care of my dogs during multiple trips to Europe. On my first trip, I left both an elderly dog and a young puppy in his care—a big ask—but he handled it wonderfully. On my second trip, my dog quickly got used to the amazing dog park near his apartment, and now she gets visibly excited every time she sees him—something she usually reserves just for me. It’s clear she bonded with him and adores him because of the love and attention he gave her. I highly recommend Brian as a dog walker or sitter for anyone in need—your pup will be in excellent hands.”

My cattle dog mix is always thrilled to have a day with Shannon, and she is amazing at keeping her happy, stimulated, exercised, and well cared for. Shannon is calm in times of stress and will spring into action in emergency situations. She is responsible and very responsive to owner wishes and dog needs.
