About: Hi! I’m Narsing, an experienced and dependable pet caregiver with 5+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and active while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality, so I take time to learn their habits, energy level, feeding schedule, and comfort needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, calm companionship, or extra patience and attention, I adapt to what makes them happiest. I’m reliable, punctual, patient, and attentive to details. I can help with: • Daily walks • Feeding & fresh water • Playtime & companionship • Photo and video updates for peace of mind I’m excited to meet your furry family member and provide loving, trustworthy care! I have a very flexible schedule and am available anytime — mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever you need. Safety is always my top priority. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel cared for, happy and stress-free while you’re away

Greg is fantastic! If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter look no further! He did an amazing job watching our two pugs (who can be a handful at times!) for 4 days/nights. During our meet and greet, Greg was really thorough with questions, making sure we went over all of their needs and schedule in detail. He was an excellent communicator and sent us photos and updates every couple of hours! Highly, highly recommend!

Destiny was an amazing sitter and house guest! Our old boy, Blue, loved her from the moment he met her. She stayed in our home for 16 days and not only took incredible care of Blue, sending regular updates and pics/videos, but she went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, watering plants and even cleaned the house before she left, leaving us a sweet note. She was communicative, professional, and has a high level of attention to detail. We will 100% be using her services again!

Jasmine was the perfect dog sitter for my senior special needs dog! Her vet background put me at ease with all the different instructions regarding Stella’s meds and any potential emergency care she might need in case her heart condition acted up. Stella was so happy to meet and see Jasmine, she got excited like she hasn’t in a long time and I can tell by how she acted when I came home that she had a great time with Jasmine 💗 an added bonus is that after her dogsit, giving Stella her liquid meds was so much easier! I don’t have to burrito her anymore and she doesn’t wiggle away in fear. I’m recommending her to my friends with animals who have medical issues. She’s an angel!

Kier took care of my dog Kiwi in my apartment over an extended time and I was confident the entire time that Kiwi was in good and extremely loving hands. Kier always sent lengthy updates and I can tell went the extra mile to make sure Kiwi was happy and taken care of. I won’t hesitate to book with him again.

About: Former dog owner and shelter volunteer with over 15 years of experience. I’m a go-to sitter for friends and I’m an active runner on the Rockaway boardwalk. I'm very comfortable and capable with all temperaments and energy levels. I have a hybrid work schedule, where I work from home 3 days during the week, and would be able to take breaks for walks. Weekends I am free. I live in a 4th floor walk up that allows pets. Other tenants have dogs. I live less than 1 block away from the boardwalk and beach for walks.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was about 8 years old. I grew up with a doberman and a cat both of which i loved dearly. I continued to have cats and dogs until I moved out on my own at 25, I now only have cats because of my building but would love to get back to walking and taking care of dogs! I’m a manager at a non-profit animal rescue group and take care of approximately 50 animals a week. This includes feeding, cleaning, playing and monitoring their health! I treat every animal I come into contact with as I would my own. There is always love and the utmost care. I’m on a sabbatical from my full time job now in sustainability so I have lots of time to do some pet care work! I still work at the animal rescue group but that is only part time. I offer services mostly at the client’s home and not my own because of my cats. While super friendly and cuddly I have no idea how they’d react to a large dog! But at the client’s home I’m extremely vigilant about pet safety and know what to do in an emergency. I’m very familiar with walking dogs of all sizes (even great danes) from my time as a doggy daycare employee.

I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! My event was delayed and she ended up staying with my boy for an extra hour. She also took him on a long walk and sent lots of pictures. I didn’t worry at all about him and was able to enjoy my night. I’ll definitely be booking her to watch my baby in the future!

About: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn I provide dedicated pet care specializing in house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I have a completely open and flexible schedule right now, meaning your pets will get my undivided attention and companionship throughout the day. My background is as a Physical Therapist Aide, so I bring a natural level of care, patience, and physical attentiveness to every animal I watch. I am highly comfortable managing the physical mobility needs of senior dogs or pets recovering from injury. My professional pet-sitting journey started right here in Chelsea, where I spent three years caring for a wonderful pair of resident cats. Since then, I’ve expanded my experience to include multi-pet households, most recently spending just under a year caring for a unique duo: an adorable kitten and a sweet senior dog. Between long-term clients, I regularly step in to watch dogs for close friends, making me highly adaptable to different routines and energy levels. Whether your pet is a high-energy walker, a playful kitten, or a senior dog needing gentle companionship, I know how to keep them safe and happy. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. You can expect frequent photo updates and peace of mind while you are away ! As a full-time pet care provider with a completely open schedule, your pets are my top priority. I recently left a demanding healthcare role to focus entirely on my passion for animal care and personal wellness. My only daily commitments are my own workouts at the gym, which I easily schedule around your pet's needs. Since I do not have a traditional 9-to-5 job, I can offer total flexibility for midday walks, specific medication times, and extended companionship during overnight stays. Your pet will never be an afterthought, they will be the central focus of my day. I provide pet care exclusively in the comfort of your own home, where your pets already feel safe and secure. My care philosophy is entirely client-centered and pet-led. I take the time to learn your furry friend's exact likes, dislikes, and unique quirks right away. Rather than forcing a new routine, I seamlessly blend myself into their established schedule. By letting your pet take the lead and set the pace, I build trust naturally and ensure they feel completely comfortable and stress-free while you are away.

Valeria was amazing staying with my 2 cats when i was away for a weekend! She took great care of them and sent picture updates everyday. She was also so easy to work with and flexible to my schedule - I almost had to cancel and she was able to work it out with me when I found out I didn't have to cancel! Will definitely have her come watch my boys again ☺️

Anastasiia is a true gem. We hired her for a 5 night stay and she was super kind and flexible about extending two additional nights when we got our flights mixed up. She alap offered to come by a day or two before our departure to get the rundown and meet Smokey ahead of time which we really appreciated. Smokey is extremely shy around strangers but by day two they were already making a lot of progress and by the end of the week he was napping in her lap and sleeping on her bed. Her genuine care about his happiness and well-being really showed. She sent detailed updates with great photos and videos, followed all of our instructions (even with our plants), and went above and beyond as a house guest. The house was spotless when she left. We will be hiring her again for sure knowing our little boy is in the best hands!
