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.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From playful puppies and cuddly kittens to senior pets who need extra attention, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I work at a local Emergency Veterinary Center for more than 2 years. I have rode and cared for horses most of my life. I work part time and I have a flexible schedule to help care for your fur babies. I look forward to taking care of your treasured pets. I have 3 pets at home, 2 dogs and a cat. I care for them daily. I walk my dogs and I also have been active in dog training, with my dog. This helps me when I walk dogs not familiar to me.

About: I’m a total animal lover with over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats—and I’ve got a full house myself with 4 pups and 4 kitties, so I truly get how much love (and personality!) our furry friends bring to our lives. I’m super flexible with scheduling and can check in on your pet as often as every 2 hours—or even more if needed! I’m also totally comfortable giving medications and handling any special needs your pet might have. I love keeping pet parents in the loop, so whether you prefer texts, photos, videos, or even a quick phone or video call, I’m happy to provide regular updates to give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and totally loved while you’re away!

“Very punctual…. Excellent to have someone that can walk on short notice!”

About: I had a cat when I was young which I took care of. Along with the cat, I’ve had various beta fish each living beyond expected life spans. When I was 17-19, I took care of my neighbor’s cat while they were on vacation. I’ve also helped take care of my grandmother’s dog for the past 5 years. I take her for walks and play with her. For the past few months, I’ve been volunteering at an animal shelter where my job is to clean the cat rooms and walk the dogs there. I’m currently a full time college student, but I will be available for breaks and over the summer. During breaks, I’m available anytime during the week depending on what days I’m home. During the summer, I have more open availability with any day being free depending on my internship. I’m very gentile whenever I work with animals, especially pets. I make sure an animal feels comfortable around me before getting them to do something. I build trust in the animal so that I can get them into a crate easily.

“Took great care of my girls”

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Skye! We are grateful for the pet tips and look forward to seeing you many times in the future.”

About: I have been around dogs for most of my life. I have also volunteered at one of the largest assistance dog organizations for more than 13 years. I typically handle between 20-30 dogs of multiple breeds every week. My responsibilities include socialization, light grooming, and free run with playtime. I'm currently training in transportation and first aid I will provide a safe, fun, and playful environment for you Cherished Canine. My horrendous personal experience with pet sitting has alerted me to the pitfalls of in-home pet care.

“Tricia is amazing! Besides my dog instantly loving her, she communicates well, is extremely thoughtful, and overall is very helpful and kind. I highly recommend her!!”

Joseph L.

“Kate is incredibly reliable and truly treats my dog like family. She went above and beyond by sending thoughtful updates, photos, and making sure their walk was full of care and attention, as she is an older dog. I feel completely at ease with Kate and will be booking again when needed!!”

Neil S.

“Mary really came through for me when I needed a last minute sitter. She arrived a few minutes early, and walked my boy. She made sure to ask follow up questions pertaing to giving him food, water, or treats. Pictures were sent to ease the mind of parents like me.”

Gabriel & Katherine R.

“I hit the jackpot when I booked Sarah. She is an absolute delight- so accommodating and caring. My dog took to her immediately. (I’m almost hesitant to rave too much about her because I selfishly want to keep her all to myself.) Sarah came to me after I had double knee replacement surgery, and naturally I was so worried about how I would care for my dog. I didn’t want to put him in a kennel, so she literally rescued both of us. Do not hesitate to book Sarah for any/all of your pet’s needs. She’s a gem!”

Pam U.

“Alicia is awesome and a clear animal lover! She did great communicating with me, updating me and taking great care of my pack (of four) dogs. You can feel confident and trust that she will take good care of your fur babies!”

Britany V.

“Emma has been brilliant with communication, flexibility with times and days for walking my dog, she has been a dream dog walker from start to finish. I would highly recommend her services as she really did give my dog the best afternoon out and the photos she took looked like he had a brilliant time! Thank you Emma.”

Danielle S.

“Abby is an excellent dog walker! She is 100% reliable, communicates well and responds quickly. My dog loves when she visits! I highly recommend Abby.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about eight years and have had four of my own — a German Shepherd, a Boxer, a Havanese, and a Maltese-Yorkie mix. I’ve also helped care for my neighbors’, friends’, and family’s dogs when they needed it. I’m comfortable with both big and small breeds and love making sure each dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m currently attending college, so my schedule is flexible around my classes. I’m available all day Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, after 5 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and after 11 AM on Fridays. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship I don’t offer pet sitting at my home as well as dog walking because I already have two dogs and three cats and don’t want to put any animals in a hectic environment. However, I’m happy to come to your home to care for your dogs or cats. I make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment, following all instructions you provide.

“Jess has done an amazing job with my Boris. He even went potty in the house and she took it upon herself to clean it. She will go above and beyond to take care of your animals. I will definitely have her back to walk my boy.”

Pearl H.

“So happy to have a new, wonderful helper for my little man, Jax. I highly recommend Gianna, even though my five-star review means we will have to share her!”

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.
