“Tara has been great with my senior dog, Boss. She is very kind, gentle, and patient with him. That is something I really appreciate since his health isn’t great and needs the care. I would definitely recommend her for your doggy needs!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jacquelyn! She has gone above and beyond in caring for my elderly dog and cats, providing them with not just the essentials but genuine love and attention. From the very start, she has been incredibly kind, communicative, and dependable, always keeping me updated with messages and pictures that give me peace of mind. Caring for senior pets requires patience and extra effort, and Jacquelyn has shown both in abundance. Whether it’s taking extra time on walks, administering special care, or making sure my cats feel just as loved, she has exceeded all my expectations. It’s clear she truly cares about the well-being of the animals she looks after. I wholeheartedly recommend Jacquelyn.”

About: I've owned and cared for animals my whole life, from cats and dogs to snakes and chinchillas. My fur babies are everything to me - I even have them forever tatted on me! My current English bulldog, Stella, is half-blind and all crazy. She is a protector and lover of my two girls, who have known and grown up with animals their whole lives. While a sweetheart, she remains separate from my boarded friends. I also enjoy volunteering at two of our local animal shelters and am raising a future veterinarian. I believe animals are the purest form of love and require nothing less in return. Whether my own or yours, you can trust that I'll care for them all the same ♥️ I'm available most days of the week and weekends. Pet care and motherhood are my full-time roles, and my daughter may often accompany me on my walks. My home has large yard and a separate family area where my boarded friends can have their own quiet, private space to hang out with me: hang on the couch, watch TV, or play outside. I have a large crate if needed and plenty of space.
“Finding someone trustworthy to check in on our senior dog, Siena, was important to us, and Lisa has exceeded our expectations. She’s always reliable, keeps us in the loop, and you can tell she genuinely cares about what she does. Siena enjoys her visits and is comfortable with Lisa, which gives us such peace of mind. We feel so fortunate to have found Lisa!”

“Carolyn was so easy to communicate with and did a great job walking both of my frenchies. She even made sure that they had water after their walk. I will be reaching out to Carolyn in the near future.”

About: My experience with my energetic German Pointer has taught me the ins and outs of training and managing high-energy breeds. This hands-on experience sets me apart, as I bring patience, skill, and a deep understanding of active dogs to every sitting job. I've also developed a gentle, attentive approach to caring for senior dogs. I'm skilled in administering medication, catering to special diets, and providing the extra comfort and support older pups need. As a dedicated student at SUNY Purchase, I've learned to balance my academics with my love for animals. My schedule allows for regular pet care during weekdays with gaps between classes, ensuring I can provide attentive service and companionship to your furry friends. Weekends are my time to shine, offering full availability for any pet care needs. Whether it's a leisurely walk, playtime, or a cozy weekend stay, I'm ready to go the extra mile for your pets! I focus on creating a warm, safe environment for pets at the client's home. I'm attentive to their needs, ensuring they stick to their regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedule. I also prioritize keeping the home tidy and secure while the owners are away.
About: I take pride in the impact I have on animals. My deep and tender care for them is unmatchable and it brings me so much joy to help them live their lives more easefully. I have done sporadic work my whole life with animals; having pets of my own, always being the one to volunteer to help neighbors, friends, and family, working on a farm, and even hosting class pets. In 2020, I started working for a pet service and was helping them walk dogs consistently, as well as occasional cat visits. The position felt really natural to me and I enjoyed the connections I made with the animals during that time. Erica pulled her business out of Philly and things shifted. Since then, I have helped families/friends with dog walks and cat visits. I am looking for something more consistent on Tuesdays! I have a reliable car and currently not willing to host any animals at my home. I’m currently working part-time and looking to add some pet care services to my schedule. Just a bonus day of work while being surrounded by fluff and love! When I take dogs on walks, I make sure to keep a tight grip on the leash and keep an eye out for other animals and walkers around. Locking up the doors to the client’s home when coming in and out is another safety concern I find important.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and developed a sense of understanding a dogs behavior and body language. Friends and family have always rely on me because they know I am great at meeting a dogs needs and dependable when needed. I am home several days of the week and have time for walks, playtime, and belly rubs. I’m also available on the weekends where I can provide consistent check ins, and walks. I will care for every pet as if they were my own whether they’re in my home or in yours I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable.
“Walfredo has been tremendous! He is reliable, responsive and our dog loves him. Walfredo keeps us informed of everything and is communicative ahead of time if there are any changes. I highly recommend Walfredo to anyone looking for dog walking and pet sitting services.”

About: I grew up having dogs! My family had the sweetest golden retriever growing up. She loved going for walks and loved meeting new people. We took care of her through an injury and arthritis which made walking challenging. My family got another dog who is a giant mix rescue with a very different temperament. She is terrified of new people and hates the mailman but I have worked with her to interact with others and work through some of her fears. I have also spent a lot of time with friends and family dogs and have dog sat a few times, too. I am looking for summer care options as I will have free time since I am a full-time teacher. I would be able to help out during the day. I am a reliable person who takes care of people's property. I will follow all instructions left by owners and do everything I can for their fur babies. I can walk, feed, and clean up after pets.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have dealt with kittens/puppies, adults and seniors. Gave meds, washed, groomed and trained them. Large dogs and pitbulls are my favorites. I also had a house rabbit for 9 years. My pets had long happy lives I have a part time job, so my schedule is flexible. With enough lead time, I can swap my shift and be available whenever I am needed. I can care for pets in their own home. The pets are happier and less stressed when they are at home. Pets should say home whenever possible.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently I am a pug mom. My pug has been highly socialized at doggy daycare‘s both in New York and out of state. Dogs have free reign in my home and plenty of toys to play with. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have constant care while he or she is here. I try to go for a few walks every day and will take your pup with me. I have a very friendly pug at home, and your pup will have free reign in my house to explore.
