About: I’ve had the pleasure of being a pet sitter professionally as well as family and friends for over 10 years now. I’ve lived with a lab/pit/shepherd mix for two years. I was also an owner and trainer of a multilingual Havanese. He was trained to understand commands in English, Chinese & Spanish. He was also trained to sing, dance and jump into any vessel on command! I can follow any specific training instructions or schedule you may have specifically for your fur babies. Cats always seem to enjoy my presence, seeking massages, playtime or attention. Looking forward to meeting your loved ones and becoming fast friends! My schedule is flexible and I can almost always be available at a moment’s notice depending on the location. I am always happy to be of service in a bind. I’d care for pets in your homes according to your specific needs and guidelines. It’s important for me to facilitate a seamless transition and experience for both owners and pets, avoiding disruption to the schedule or environment. I understand and consider the attachment that your fur or furless family members have to you so I aim to be a comforting presence as much as possible.

Kristen was a delight from the start. She is so sweet and kind. She took care of my cat for a weekend, not only feeding him, but she also administered medication, cleaned the litter box and spent some time with him. I would totally recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a cat sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her next time I will be out of town 😁

About: I’ve lived with four different dogs over the years of different breeds, helping to sit, feed, and walk them! Also more recently I was doing pet sitting for cats and dogs in Australia, which you can see some of the photos and reviews in my profile here! I currently work from home for myself and have a flexible schedule to be able to accommodate dog walking throughout the week! Ideally a 24/hr advanced booking is best, but I can also “at times” be available for same day bookings! I feel it’s best to first meet the owners and dog together to establish a rapport and warm the dog up to me! Having a good chat with the others as well as any particular instructions as to the dogs needs/behaviors is key to a smooth and happy experience for all!

Nicole was an absolute angel with Lale during a very stressful time for me. From day one, I could see how kind, caring, and genuinely loving she is with animals. Honestly, the best review comes from Lale herself — she would practically hop with excitement whenever she saw Nicole! Watching her little tail wag and seeing how happy she was made my heart so happy. Lale felt completely safe, loved, and spoiled in the best possible way. Knowing Nicole was with her gave me such comfort and peace of mind. She cared for Lale with so much affection and attention, as if she were her own. I’m beyond grateful for everything Nicole did for my sweet girl. Anyone would be lucky to have Nicole care for their pet — and their pet will probably fall in love with her just as much as Lale did! ❣️🐾💕

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Jane. I’ve been caring for dogs in their own homes for 10 years and I can honestly say, I love what I do. There’s something really special about a dog who barely notices their owner left because they’re too busy having a good time. I enjoy leaving clients to wonder if I even stayed — everything is just as they left it, with one exception: a happier pet. I specialize in walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting, all in the comfort of your pet’s own home. I learn their routine, respect their quirks, and treat your space the way I’d want someone to treat mine. You’ll hear from me regularly with updates, photos, and videos of your dear girl or sweet boi. If you like the mundane, you’ll hear from us — me and your dog (or cat, or gerbil, or boa python — we’re all inclusive here). If you’d love to see the reasons strangers fall for your sweet girlie or darling boi, you’ll definitely hear from me while your loved one is in my care. Once you reach out, I’ll schedule a complimentary meet and greet to make sure me and your special four-legged loved one are a good match. Spoiler: we usually are. 🐾 🐾 Providing care for your loved one is built into my week, not mushed into it. Available weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. 🐾 🐾 This is where the complimentary meet and greet pays off for you. Because we’ve spoken ahead of time, it’s even easier for me to keep your pet on their usual routine, respect your home, and stay in consistent communication so you always know your dog is doing well. There are legends abound of me leaving my client’s place a little cleaner than I found it too. 🐾

About: I’ve had numerous cats, dogs, birds and a rabbit! I love animals and the unconditional love they give in return. I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your babies while you are gone and give you the piece of mind you are looking for. I’m retired and have plenty of time to play and check on your fur baby! I adore animals and will love yours as much as I love my own! Currently I am offering services in your home only as I have a high energy puppy in mine. If your dog also is high energy and wants/craves stimulation with a like minded pup, I’d be more than happy to see how they get along! My home has a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door, and my dogs go on numerous walks per day.

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. I’m very attentive when it comes to routines, comfort, and I always prioritize safety and patience. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s beloved animal. I’m open to caring for pets of any age or disability, and providing as much attention as needed. I have a college classes(online and face to face) throughout the week and a part time job( mainly 10-15 hours) but i mainly stay at home so i am able to pay attention to your pet at all times. If you’re comfortable with it i love to take them with me for small errands or nice views just so they are not left alone at home. I live in a very walkable town. Your pet will be able to roam freely around the house if needed, and/or have their own space if they are shy. I’m capable of moving things around for comfortability. Pets will never be left unattended for long periods of time. I don’t own additional dogs or cats but i have rabbits kept in their own secure caged space. I can and WILL follow all care instructions. I would be happy to provide updates and photos at any time.

Kelley took great care of our cat while we were away. She even stopped by on her own time to meet the cat before we left since she lives nearby. We got daily updates with photos. We came home to hand-washed food bowls and a happy cat. Thanks so much, Kelley!

About: I have taken care of many dogs in my lifetime and I have also volunteered with a bunch of different shelters. Right now I cannot get my own pet, but would love to take care of yours! I’m currently a college student so I have all the time in the world to play with and walk your pups! When I am not in class, I am usually out and about walking around. I do not have a fenced in yard or any pets in my household, but I can assure you that they will go on many walks and get a lot of playtime!

About: My journey with dogs began with Sparkle, a rescue I raised from eight weeks old. For 14 wonderful years, she was my best friend. In her later years, she navigated life with a disability and absolutely rocked a pink wheelchair. Losing her in 2018 didn't diminish the love she left behind. It redirected it outward, straight toward every dog I've met since. I’ve since adopted Harvey, a rescue Pittie with a backstory that’ll make you cry and a personality that’ll make you laugh. He was found as a critically starving stray in Texas, brought to a high-kill shelter in NYC, and pulled from a euthanasia list just in the nick of time. Harvey has since blossomed into the happiest, goofiest, most brisket-shaped dog you'll ever meet. His favorite hobbies are couch hogging and unhinged zoomies. Rehabilitating him deepened my understanding of canine anxiety, trauma recovery, and the kind of steady, patient love it takes to help a dog truly feel safe. That experience, combined with years of hands-on care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, is what I bring to every visit. I've worked with elderly and special needs dogs, as well as dogs managing anxiety, hyperactivity, and behavioral challenges, across a wide range of breeds from Pitbulls and Chihuahuas to St. Bernards and Corgis. I'm currently working toward board certification in canine massage therapy through my forthcoming practice. Your pet is family. I'll treat them like it… and probably talk to them in a silly voice the whole time. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine; it basically is my routine. I work from home alongside Harvey, who doubles as my couch rotation partner, backyard hangout buddy, and walk motivator. My animals are on specialized diets and care schedules, so attentiveness and consistency are just part of my everyday life. I treat every pet in my care the way I treat my own: with patience, attentiveness, and zero shortcuts. I have experience administering oral medications, tinctures, and topical treatments, and cared for my late dog Sparkle through injections in her final chapter. Special needs, senior pets, and animals with medical routines are in safe and experienced hands with me. I take time to learn each pet's individual needs, quirks, and comfort levels before and during every visit, because trust between a sitter and an animal isn't assumed; it’s built.
