About: I’ve taken care of pets since 15. I gained all of my experience that I have today through taking care of neighbors, friends, colleagues, and family’s pets. I am a loving, kind, caring, and patient person. I learned so much from caring for animals, that I adore them so much! Also additional, I have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I’m currently a college student, my classes are held online. Which gives me plenty of time to spend with the doggies. My weekends are busy but I can do mornings only. Because the weekends are the only days I have to finish my college work. I care for my clients pets like if they were my own. I make sure to make my clients pets feel as comfortable and safe as possible, like if they were in their own home. I love taking my time to get to know my clients pets because each pet has their own personality! I also make sure to follow any rules or meal plans that my clients leave for their pets.
About: I have experience with animals of all kinds. My experience includes caring for my childhood cats and walking friends' dogs when they're out of town. My experience also includes end of life care for my aging childhood cats. I do home stay visits with cats and dogs during my free time. Some days I work in Manhattan and you’ll find that reflected in my calendar. For services in your home, I provide care for your pet while also maintaining the cleanliness of your space. During all visits I'm available by text or call.

“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.”

“Imani did a fantabulous job. She loves what she does and I am very happy we found her through Rover. She did home sitting for us. And it was a great experience.”

“I have a high needs dog. Lots of medications and some reactivity on leash. He was very attentive to all of her needs and did a great job of keeping her calm. He also sends very thorough updates with lots of photos!”

“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!”

“Mabel loves when we go out of town because she has the best time with George—the pictures he sends are always of the happiest, tiredest dog who has been living her best life with her pal. Obviously super responsive, great communicator, supremely responsible—can’t recommend highly enough!”

“Mona is amazing. She’s got a great intuition about animals, and a passion for them. She was super patient with our little lady, who has a lot of baggage and trauma and takes a while to open up to new folks.

I highly recommend her and will definitely have her back to sit our home and pup!”

About: Hello, My name is Leilani and As an animal lover, I find pet sitting to be a rewarding and enjoyable job. It allows me to spend time with furry friends and provide them with the care and attention they need when their owners are away. In my personal experience, I have had the pleasure of caring for animals for several years. During that time, I learned how to provide them with proper nutrition, and exercise. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also taken care many dogs and other animals on multiple occasions. This has given me the opportunity to gain experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments, and has allowed me to expand my knowledge of animal care. Overall, pet sitting is a fulfilling and enjoyable job for those who love animals. It allows us to provide care and companionship to furry friends while giving their owners peace of mind knowing that their pets are in good hands. I'm currently working part-time, so l'll have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am available to house sit on weekends and weekdays, anytime after 12pm When a pet owner hires a pet sitter to care for their pet in the sitter's home, safety is often a top concern. As a responsible pet sitter i will take several measures to ensure that the pet is safe and secure during their stay. This may include providing a secure and comfortable environment for the pet, ensuring that the pet is supervised at all times, following any specific instructions provided by the owner, and having emergency plans in place in case of any unexpected situations. Communication between the pet sitter and pet owner is also essential to ensure that any concerns or issues are addressed promptly and effectively. By taking these steps, i can help provide peace of mind for pet owners and ensure that their pets are happy and healthy while in their care.

I would highly recommend Terri! She looked after our high maintenance Lulu for a week and they truly bonded. Lots of photos and it was obvious that Terri not only loves dogs, but speaks their language. She stayed in the house and it was great to know that she was taking care of everything. If she is available, we would definitely book Terri again.
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!
