“Ivy was great with our stubborn and aloof dog, Itza. She took time and went at Itza's pace, even coming over VERY early on the day I left to make sure Itza could warm up to her a bit before their week together. The house looks just how I left it and all our plants seem even happier than they were when we left.”
“Sophia was amazing staying at our place with our 2 dogs and cat. Everyone was well taken care of, especially our dog that requires epilepsy pills 3x per day. And she left the place so clean you wouldn’t have known anybody had stayed there. Will 100% be using her services again, couldn’t be happier.”
“Jaidi is a fantastic sitter! She has a very calm and warm personality and is very skilled in communicating with your canine. She was extremely responsive and professional, and is absolutely the best person you could have watch your dog and home.”
“Celine was great with our maltipoo Gracie! She helped us out last minute, and was accommodating of Gracie’s anxiety issues. She also sent great photos and videos throughout the stay so we knew Gracie was well taken care of!”
“I could not recommend Nianna more as a pet sitter. She obviously loves animals and took good care of our dog and home while we were away. She came to meet our dog before so he would be familiar with her, kept us informed and sent lots of pictures, she is punctual and very friendly on top! Five stars!”
“Another great stay with Greg. He is our go-to sitter for our dog. We were away for a few days on vacation, and Greg came to take care of our dog at our place. He provided daily updates with photos to let us know how everything went. Greg took great care of both our little girl and our home. He is extremely responsible with everything. Cannot recommend Greg enough!”
“Casey did an outstanding job. I was nervous about leaving the animals and she quickly laid the nervousness to bed. She always sending updates text and videos. The animals loved her. I will def use her services time and time again”
About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life and am an extremely loving and diligent caretaker. Clients, friends, neighbors and family have always trusted me to care for and supervise their pets! I currently have open availability to care for your pets and am able to travel to most areas of brooklyn or manhattan in relatively short notice! I can keep your dog company in your home, play games, feed them according to their eating schedule and administer any oral medication if necessary!
“Tatiana is amazing with our dog. She is very committed and on time. She spends time with our puppy playing, feeding her and most importantly loving her and caring for her like one of her own. Highly recommended.”
About: Unleash the Love: Transforming Pet Care into a Tail-Wagging Adventure! I have had the pleasure of caring for a wide range of pets over the past fifteen years, including dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. During this time, I have developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors, allowing me to provide exceptional care and create a nurturing environment for each pet. I am a highly responsible and reliable caregiver, always ensuring the safety and security of the pets under my care. I am attentive to their individual needs and provide personalized attention, ensuring they receive the love, exercise, and mental stimulation they require. Moreover, I am a strong communicator and believe in building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep owners informed and reassured that their beloved pets are in capable hands. I am also attentive to the specific instructions and preferences of each pet owner, ensuring that their individual needs and routines are met. I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and creating a positive and enriching experience for both pets and their owners. I’m currently working from home with a flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to ensure your pet is receiving personalized attention, food, love, exercise, and mental stimulation. I have a one-bedroom apartment with a large living room that is usually my furry friends' playroom and bedtime. I also have a fenced yard to play for a while or just take a nice break outside. There are no other pets around except my adorable and friendly cat Cher.
About: With over 10 years of experience in pet care, I have developed a deep understanding of both dogs and cats.

This extensive experience has equipped me to handle a wide range of pet needs with compassion and expertise, ensuring that each furry friend receives the best possible care while their owners are away. I’m currently working part time and will have plenty of time to care and take care of your pet. I will walk as much as you would recommend and also go for runs.

About: I’m a long time cat and dog lover with over 10 years of experience taking care of furry friends! I have been the go to caretaker for friends, family, and coworkers who travel often. I spent the last 4 years frequently boarding a pair of sibling cats while their owner went on vacation, but since moving into a smaller apartment that does not allow pets, I’ve had the pleasure of pet/house sitting in other people homes. My experience ranges from freshly spayed kittens to freshly spayed senior pups. You can count on long walks, daily litter cleaning, playtime, and an extraordinary level of care for your loved one. 🐶🐱 (PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I WORK 9-5PM MON-FRI. I CAN STILL PROVIDE HOUSE/PET SITTING SERVICES, BUT YOUR PET MUST BE OKAY STAYING ALONE DURING THESE HOURS:) ) I’m currently working 9-5pm Mon-Fri and would be happy to pet/house sit before and after work! I am also available on weekends for sitting services. For walking services, I am available weekdays after 5pm and weekends until 6pm. Weekday routines include morning walks for your pup and play time of course! I will feed your dog/cat before I leave and make sure their litter is cleaned if applicable. You can expect a long walk right after work and shorter evening outings, depending on your usual schedule! I’m a tidy person and will leave your house cleaner than when you left :) Weekends are full days of caring for your furry loved ones and local adventures :)
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for my neighbors of different varieties. I love big dogs and small dogs alike, even medium dogs. I know nurturing a bond with the dog is very hard but very rewarding and I’m willing to put in the work. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty time to go in and check in on your fur babies. I definitely can walk bathe play, and feed dogs while I visit! I currently own one dog in a fenced in yard, and I own one cat, he is my light and joy. I love him so much.
“Tara is amazing! She is very caring and kind. I felt very at ease having her watch Gyro and Charlie and will absolutely ask her to do so again. Caring for a 20 year old chihuahua can be daunting but Tara was confident and up for the task. I came home to two happy boys and everything was great!”
“Annie is incredible! From the minute she came to meet Ollie, he was instantly comfortable with her. Annie took great care of Ollie AND our house. Annie sent so many great photos and updates … can’t wait to book Annie again. Thanks, Annie!”
About: I've always had animals growing up and I loved taking care of them. I have 10 years of experience taking care of my own pets. I made sure they were fed a balanced diet, they had their daily walks, they were upto date with their vaccines. I also made sure that they were well-groomed, given lots of love and attention and spoiled rotten with toys! I currently work full time but I am available anytime after 3pm to pet sit the little cuties and I am free anytime on the weekends. I do not have yard space but I am close to the beach and there are a few parks to take the dogs for a walk!

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Abby! She took amazing care of our furry crew. She was thoughtful, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable while we were away. We especially appreciated the daily updates and pictures - seeing them so well cared for gave us such peace of mind. We highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for a kind and responsible person ❤️
Mary-Grace was Exceptional !! She is Very Highly Recommended. We went out of the country, and she gave us 100% peace of mind that our precious pets and home would be taken care of safely. It snowed 9 inches while we were gone, and she perfectly managed things. She is timely, communicative, friendly, caring, and dedicated. We came back to a clean home and happy pets. We were so grateful for Mary-Grace and you will be too.
