About: I’ve grown up with large-breed dogs, especially Labs, and have cared for two or more cats at a time. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for over five years to walk, feed, and bathe their pets—including large dogs and bigger cat breeds. I’m comfortable handling active dogs, giving them plenty of exercise, and providing calm, loving care for all animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own. My schedule is part-time and flexible, and I’m happy to work with most schedules. This allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I create a safe, loving environment in my own home and will be sure to do the same in yours. I follow your pet’s routines, ensure they’re comfortable, and keep them supervised during walks or playtime. Whether it’s making sure they get enough exercise, providing calm companionship, or keeping their space clean and cozy, I always put their well-being first.
About: Hello Pet Parents! I'm available for pet sitting, dog walking, and house/plant sitting on a one-time or recurring basis; I am available for boarding only if your pets are dog-friendly & potty trained. Certified by the American Red Cross in Pet First Aid for cats + dogs, fully insured by PCI, and experienced with my own 3-legged 11yo rescue dog's medical needs, I am prepared for any emergency situation life may throw our way. I always travel with a first aid kit for pets (and humans too). I have no problem carefully administering food and medicine (including insulin injections) alongside other care for senior and special needs animals. I am local to Cross River (where I was raised) and can travel up to 12 miles from 10518. I can do overnight stays but cannot be present in the home 24/7, as I have my own dog to feed and walk as well. I only host pets in my own home if they are dog-friendly and potty trained. I will always make sure to leave the home leashed (unless going into fenced in area) and ensure your pet gets back home safely & happily.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid. Neighbors always relied on me to help care for there pets when they were away. I have trained puppies and am good with seniors. Our pets are a priority and get taken care of first thing in the morning and always on a schedule. If they require special attention, that always comes first. It is imperative that the pets needs come first and stay on a schedule. Pets need to know that they can trust the provider and build a rapport. Pets will always be a priority.
About: I only accept small dogs up to 30 pounds for boarding and daycare. I love taking care of the small pups and they fit right into our pack of 2 Boston terriers and a pug! I have taken care of dogs and various other pets my whole adult life. I believe trust is the most important thing when it comes to leaving your pets with a sitter and I can assure you I will treat your pets like I would my own, with love and respect. Your dog will be staying in a family style boarding situation, where they get the love and attention from myself, my husband and our 2 children (7 and 10) who adore helping out with all the pups. We have a large fenced in back yard for lots of supervised running, playing and sniffing! I am trained in obedience training and can provide puppy socialization. Please reach out to me with any questions or to schedule a meeting! Boarding is always available. I am available weekdays after 8:30 am - 3:30 pm for walks, drop ins, puppy socialization or obedience training. I am fully available on the weekends for boarding, walking, drop-ins, puppy socialization and obedience training. I have 3 extremely friendly small dogs for your fur baby to play with or relax with. I strive to make the dogs that stay here comfortable and as stress free as possible.
About: As a lifelong pet owner with hands-on experience in rehabilitating rescue animals, I bring a unique level of care and understanding to pet sitting that goes beyond the basic needs. My commitment to animal well-being has been a lifelong passion, enriched by years of nurturing animals and helping them thrive. With over two acres of open space, I can provide pets with a safe and stimulating environment where they can explore, exercise, and feel at home. This personalized approach, combined with my experience, ensures that each pet receives the highest level of care, attention, and compassion. As a full time parent to two sweet and caring boys, my priorities and work are centered within the home, a beautiful 2.5 acre property in northern westchester. Once your pets arrive at my home they are immediately treated as part of our family, that prioritizes love, empathy and care. Completely customizable to your needs, my services provide your pets with whatever is necessary for them to thrive.
About: I have owned and worked with many different types of dogs: Belgian Malinois (my own baby), German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Pitties, and small dogs too. I have worked with them from all age stages and my top priority to make sure they are SAFE and having the most fun. Dogs (& Cats) are precious, I will care for your pet as if it was my own. I am a full time human & DogMama but can work around my schedule and on weekends to do my best to help you out. It’s A LOT harder to find help for the fur babies than human babies and we all deserve some “me time” while feeling like our fur babies are safe and having a good time. I will make sure to follow your instructions to the very best of my abilities. I will send you pictures of your pet while I’m with them, and if anything that may seem out of the ordinary seems to be up, I will let you know. I do not allow dogs to interact with other dogs during our walks. Your pet (just like my own) may love other dogs but I always air on the side of caution and do not want any mishaps happening while you’ve trusted your dog with me. I have experience with harnesses, prong collars, choke collars, and muzzles so whichever your pet does best with I can handle.
