Dog Sitting Ronkonkoma

“Samantha took care of my dog Frankie for a week while we were on vacation out of the country and I couldn’t be happier. She is so caring, so communicative and such a natural. I had complete confidence in her and knew as soon as she met my dog that there was a connection, thank you Samantha!”

About: I’m an experienced, reliable sitter who treats every pet like family. From playful puppies to senior sweethearts, I’m patient, calm, and caring so your pet is always in safe, loving hands. 10/10 pets agree: I give the best belly rubs and ear scratches. I’m home all day to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care. They’ll never be alone for long and will feel like part of the family while you’re away. At my home, pets get a safe, loving space and plenty of attention. In your home, I follow their routine to keep things familiar and stress-free. Either way, they’re treated like family.

About: I have babysat and pet-sat since I was 16! I would feed the neighbors animals and take them on walks. When sitting I took care of the kids and the pets. I have taken care of bunnies, cats, and dogs of all sizes!! Pets feed off of your energy and can feel your emotions and that is why we connect so well!! I have fed, walked, groomed, and cuddled with our furry friends and love to spend time with them. I've owned four dogs, including my English Mastiff, Moose, and have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need medication or extra support. Whether your pet needs exercise, engagement, or companionship, I'm ready for the job! I am currently going to school for my masters and have breaks throughout the day to talk walks and care for your pet! I have evenings free and can board most nights of the week when planned! I have plenty of time to play, cuddle, and love on your furry friend. I have a fenced yard and no pets, so can easily adapt to your pets style and needs. I live in a walkable, quiet, pet friendly, family neighborhood. I live with 2 girls, also college graduates who both work as EMTs! We do not keep anything out that would be a danger to a furry friend and have an open floor space comfortable for lounging and whatever needs your pet has! :))) I'm able to step away from my responsibilities to ensure your pets receive consistent attention and care. I always follow your instructions and respect your home and your pet's routines. I focus on creating a calm, positive environment, whether that means adhering to feeding schedules, administering medication, or keeping your pet engaged through walks and play. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, including my two childhood dogs and I’ve babysat and watched other families dogs for 10 years now during highschool and college. I am now a physician assistant and have a rotating schedule that allows me to be home during the week. I am on both Wag and Rover. I have a rotating schedule and am home most days of the week, and able to spend a lot of time with the doggies. I eventually want to get my own again! I have a really nice neighborhood to walk the dogs around, my friend also does rover who lives next door! There’s a ton of parks to play fetch and run around with them as well if that’s something you’d be interested in.

About: I have been a dog walker for my neighbor for 5 years. I have experienced in pet sitting small and big dogs, as well as puppies and senior dogs. In my free time I walk senior dogs from a shelter. Over these years and with all my experiences, I have learned dog expressions and warning signs which help me to prevent dogs from any triggering behavior. I’m am a college student and work a weekend job. During the week after classes I have free time to dog walk. I keep my calendar updated regularly for any days where I might not be available throughout the week. I live in an apartment, which is why I choose only small to medium sized dogs to board. I have a large yard that is fenced except for the driveway entrance, for your pets safety I only take dogs into the yard with a leash and as always constant supervision.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner wth personal experience raising puppies, caring for adopted senior dogs, and supporting pets with various health conditions. I have been pet sitting for over a decade and have two years of managerial experience in a professional dog daycare and boarding facility. I am Pet First Aid & CPR Certified and hold two levels of professional pet boarding certification through the Professional Pet Boarding Association. I also have additional experience in animal care and wildlife rehabilitation. Through my professional background, I have experienced caring for a wide variety of breeds and temperaments, managing various health conditions, and safely administering medications. I would love to provide that priceless peace of mind for your fur babies! Animals are the heart of my everyday life. My mornings start with caring for my three dogs and letting my chickens out for some morning free-ranging while I clean their coop. Afterwards, I follow the schedule that I thoughtfully planned the night before, making sure that I have plenty of time between visits and travel so each animal receives the attention and care they deserve. If I don't have an overnight sitting, I come home throughout the day to take my dogs out and give my chickens some late-day time to forage. If I'm unable to make it home in the evening, my partner happily steps in to care for our furry family members. My days are joyfully filled with animals! I take pride in bringing the same patience, compassion, and attentiveness to caring for other people's pets as I do my own. I care for every pet as an individual, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, comfort level, and their specific needs. Through my professional experience, I have cared for an extensive variety of dog breeds, temperaments, ages, and health conditions, including dogs who require extra patience, supervision, or specialized care. The fulfillment I receive from helping an animal feel safe and comfortable is a major reason I chose animal care as my career path. I am attentive to changes in behavior or well-being and take every concern seriously. My professional background has also taught me to remain calm and level-headed during emergencies. I believe communication with owners is just as important as hands-on care, so I make it a priority to keep owners informed and comfortable while their pets are in my care.

About: My background in canine care began at the Little Shelter Animal Adoption Center in Huntington, NY in 2008. I was employed there for several years as a dog walker and socializer, working with a wide variety of dogs and puppies from many different walks of life. All of the dogs were rescues, and so special care needed to be provided, with exercise, playtime, feeding, and even medication distribution. After working at the shelter, I found myself at a few local grooming parlors, working as a bather. As you've probably experienced, most dogs do not love being bathed and groomed, and so I would try my very best to make them comfortable in the unfamiliar situation they were in, taking the time to check in on them frequently and give them lots of reassurance and loving. Patience goes a long way! In January of 2015 I had my first two-month long house and pet sitting job. However, since then I've been working a full time office job and have been unable to enjoy much time with canine companions. I will regularly pet sit for close friends and family, but I'm ready to spend more time around furry friends! I'd love to meet you and your pup and ensure that they're properly taken care of and loved while you're out on the weekend, working, or away on vacation! I'm currently working part-time, with a very flexible schedule, so there's a good chance I'll be able to accommodate your scheduling needs! Reach out to me with any questions. I have two cats at who are cautious of other animals, so I'm happy to care for your pet in your home! I'd love to learn about your pet's routine and preferences to provide them the best care possible.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs (and other animals!) for many years. Family, friends, and co-workers have relied on me to watch and care for their pets whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, even taking them to the vet. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages, from senior bull mastiffs to pugs under a year old. There is no dog too big or too small because they’re all perfect to me. I’ve also found lost dogs and helped them return to their owners! I have experience caring for anxious dogs, blind dogs, deaf dogs, dogs with mobility issues, and dogs that require medication. Other animals I’ve taken care of include: cats, parrots, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. Pets are so precious, they’re such an important source of joy in their family’s lives so it’s such a privilege to be trusted with their care!! :) Pet sitting is currently my full time job, so I have lots of time to give your animals the special care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs to run around in. I also have a car so I’m able to take dogs to the dog park or dog beaches nearby (if that’s something they would enjoy). At a client’s house I still follow any guidance/schedule given to me. In between I typically take the dog’s lead. I’m at their house so it’s important to me that I respect their space (and the clients above all)! I like to take their cues to make sure that their sense of routine isn’t disrupted.

“Samantha has been fabulous for the last 3 months with regular visits. Her love to our furry-kiddos and kind heart, have been fantastic and highly recommended.”

About: I’ve had a dog pretty much my whole life, so I’m very used to taking care of them and being around them every day. I also spend a lot of time around my girlfriend’s cat and help take care of her, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats. I genuinely love animals and I’m someone you can trust to make sure your pet is well taken care of and gets plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m a commuter engineering student at Stony Brook, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and spend a lot of my week at home. Most days I’m only on campus for a few hours at a time, and I’m free all day on Saturdays. I do have an occasional longer class day, but even then I’m able to plan around your pet’s schedule. A lot of my schoolwork is done on my laptop, so when I’m pet sitting I’m happy to study and do my work from your home, which means I can spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I also usually go to a local gym for about an hour and a half in the evening, but otherwise I’m around and can be pretty flexible. I’ll follow whatever routine you already have for your pet so they can stay as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’m active and in good shape, so I’m more than happy to take dogs on long walks or give them as much exercise as they’re used to. I can handle feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, litter boxes, and whatever else is part of their normal routine. I’m also completely comfortable sleeping with your pets if that’s what they’re used to, or giving them their own space so it’s really whatever you and your pet are most comfortable with. I’m happy to send pictures and updates too so you know they’re doing well.

About: My love for dogs started at the age of 7. Ever since then, I'm always looking for dogs from neighbors, friends, family, parents co-workers etc..., to do drop-in visits, dog walks, and to play with them and nurture them in general! I also picked up a great handful of tricks on how to train and make a puppy obientant from the classes I took my puppy to for training. When I got my second pup, I've used the knowledge that I learned when I took my first puppy to training and it worked out fantastically! I'm currently an online student and flexible, so I would love to nurture your pets and to play with them! I'm available on weekends and weekdays for drop-in visits and dog walking, and if the service you were looking for isn’t listed, message me and guarantee I will best accommodate to it:) I have a fenced backyard and a great amount of space for your fur babies to play in. Along with toys they can engage in and have fun with and blankets for naps, so they never get bored and are always happy and entertained:) I also make sure to take them on their daily walks to keep them in shape and healthy.

“Jenna was absolutely incredible with our two bigger dogs who have a lot of energy! We received pictures and updates each day which made us feel much better about leaving them. We will definitely have her sit with our pups the next time we go away ?”

“This is my third time using Autumn for my spicy cat Loki and I would recommend her to anyone. She has gone above and beyond to accommodate when my plans change and Loki seems to like her more than me! Her updates are always detailed and requests are always completed.”

I will make sure each and every experience is a positive one for your dog, I think this is the most important part of interacting with other's dogs!

“My puppies were happy and content when I arrived home while Bridget let them out in my backyard. Even with my smaller, younger puppy being a bit cautious and protective, everything seemed to go EXACTLY as planned! Kudos and thank you! Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always possessed a deep love for animals and have grown up around pets my entire life. I have several years of hands-on experience working at a grooming salon, where I assisted with bathing, feeding, and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve also volunteered at local animal shelters, which helped me better understand dog behavior, body language, and each pet’s unique emotional needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I would be honored to care for your furry family member like they’re my own! 🐾 I recently graduated and am taking a gap year, pursuing additional courses as an aspiring physician assistant and working part-time in healthcare. My schedule is very flexible throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. I’m generally available most weekdays and weekends, except Thursdays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to body language, feeding schedules, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

“Sophia is the best! Prompt communication, timely arrival, no confusion. She gave Rizzo the best possible care and made me feel at ease. 10/10, would definitely recommend.”

About: I’m a veterinary technician and I have been in the field for 5 years now. I have been taking care of pets for years and truly enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. I would love to provide the best care for your pet! I work full time Monday-Thursday from 8-6. Fridays I have off and Saturday I work 8-2. I do have a busy schedule but will put in the effort to meet your requirements. I can drop in multiple times a day and stay at your home if needed. I work with scared/nervous pets daily and I will ensure I gain their trust and keep them comfortable at all times. I follow rules as requested and always put the pets needs first

About: For 15 years, I have loved and cared for my animals. I was lucky enough to receive excellent training for my shepherd/husky and incorporate the methods during interactions with other animals as well as my new puppy. I completely understand needing reliable care when away. Patience, exercise and attention work wonders!! I'm currently working remote on Thursdays and am able to fit walks in throughout the day as well as during weekends. A varied schedule is fine!! Ensuring the animal's environment is the same when I leave as when I arrive is necessary to prevent injury or any accident. My yard is completely fenced in and equipped to play and run!
