About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I have experience with dogs of all different sizes and ages. I have taken care of puppies and seniors who needed help doing everyday tasks. I have an extensive knowledge of animal behavior and disabilities so I can care for your pup with special needs. I have a degree in small animal science and have worked many jobs with animals including at an animal hospital. I work full time but will work with you so we can schedule time for your pet. Let me know when I can be of assistance to you. My home has a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed in all parts of home, including on furniture. If you have any rules I would be happy to enforce them when I am with your dog. I have an 11 pound dog who is friendly and will be a good friend for your dog. I will be respectful in your home and enforce any rules/boundaries you have for your dog.

About: Hello my fellow pet parents! I am Andrew Call me Drew I have had Dogs my whole life. I have two English Labrador Retrievers, Teddy (6 years old, Cocoa 1 1/2 year old) Dogs and pets bring the child in me out, I am a kid at heart when it comes to these Beautiful creatures Teddy is very sociable with children people and other animals and loves to play Who is extremely affectionate and is my. Cocoa is very energetic pup. Enjoys meeting new people On my Days off from work, I enjoy spending time with my family. I LOVE cooking, baking. I will be adding another dog to my pack soon.

About: As a lifelong pet owner, I see and treat all pets as family members! 🐾💞 I will treat your animals with the love, care and respect they deserve. Currently, I am a proud mom of a chatty black cat named Binx 🐈‍⬛ and a very funny (and very opinionated) 2 year old husky named Aries who loves to sing 📣🐺 Both are very social, friendly, kind and well behaved. Both get along with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Both are fixed, vaccinated and healthy. I have walk several dogs in my old building complex - most are friends with my dog who is a very happy husky mix. I am the friend / neighbor everyone calls when they need help with their pets! I’m trained in walking dogs on standard leashes, slip leads, harnesses, choke collar (although, not personally preferred), retractable leashes, “no pull” harnesses, muzzles, etc. Previously, I volunteered at an animal shelter for years where I was properly trained on walking different degrees of behaviorally ranked dogs. Each level requires a 10 hour orientation so as to make sure both the dog and I were safe. I still apply many of those useful techniques today. I’ve owned, worked with and volunteered with dog breeds of all sizes and all kinds of personalities for many years and across NYC. I also adore cats, fish and reptiles as well. 🐠🐢🦎 I can help with walking, feeding / administering medication or vitamins, socialization, basic training (leash training, off-leash training, crate training, positive reinforcement, sit, stay, down, paw (and “other paw”), behavioral fixes like pulling on leash, etc), daycare for short or longer stays, drop-ins and whatever else you need! We can also work out trips to the dog park, groomer, vet, etc. Importantly, I am looking into becoming a certified dog trainer in the coming year 🐕‍🦺 My own dog gets 4-5 walks a day with a substantial exercise session as one of them! Clients have the opportunity to set their own schedules with me. I am available early, late, weekends and holidays! Working with animals is my full time occupation at the moment. However, when I am working in my other profession (legal & tech), I work solely from home. So, I am always local. I live in an apartment in a very secure, dog-friendly building with a fenced yard outside. These are cameras everywhere. If I am boarding a dog, no matter the duration, I will make myself available to FaceTime at any time so that parents are reassured and at ease. I am within minutes of an animal hospital should anything arise. I have all the supplies needed to host and house a dog or a cat including, but not limited to: • Crates, if needed or preferred • Leashes and collars • Beds • Food in surplus • Feeding bowls • Toys • Interactive toys & games • Treats • Calming music • Rental Insurance

“Beth, There is not enough words to how grateful I am too you. You absolutely went above and beyond for chubs and me. You by far are the best, your passion and love You had for chubs was so natural he felt it and so did I. I was so scared to leave him but you made it easy for me and when I saw the pics and FaceTimes you were able too see he was extremely happy and comfortable and that was all you. I would recommend you to friends and family all day everyday. Thank you for being you and thank you for taking care of him. You truly are a good person inside and out. Judy”

About: As a dog owner myself, I love long walks and hang outs with my 4 legged friends. At home I have 2 dogs of my own, Bruno a 3 year old LabPit mix, who is friendly, loving, and very active. He loves to play fetch and run but also cuddle on the sofa when resting at home. Lola is a 10 year old Maltese/Shih tzu mix who loves her naps and shorter walks. Our daily activities include long walks or runs around the neighborhood; twice a day and a short midday walk. Although Lola doesn’t always keep up with her brother, she enjoys accompanying us in our hikes and so she comes along in her backpack! At home we also I also have 2 parakeets who bring us lots of joy. Aside from my personal pets, I have also fostered 11 dogs through an organization here in Staten Island. I took in dogs ranging of ages from 3 puppies of 5 weeks to a 6 year old pup. Some with medical need such as taking prescribed medication, special diets or receiving medicated baths. Here your furry friend will have company from my two 4 legged friends, she/he will play and receive lots of physical activity, but if they are more couch potatoes, that works too! Their needs will be catered. They will be part of our pack until you are ready to return home! During weekdays, pets will receive morning, afternoon and night walks. During days when I am at work, they get their longer walks during the afternoon and nights since I work 8-3 outside of the home. In the afternoon I make sure to give them lots of attention and weather permitting, take them to the yard to play fetch or let them run around a bit. During weekends, they receive longer walks/ park visits earlier in the day. Morning walks turn into park visits or small hikes, then midday walks depending on when we get home and night walks. Although my yard is not fenced, I have long 30 ft leashes long give your dog opportunity to run as they pleased. At my home, they will have friends to play with, feel love and care for. I love communicating with fur parents on how their pets are doing and easing any worry they may have about leaving their pet behind.

“Nermina was fantastic. Easy to communicate with, really responsive, and worth every cent. The animals loved her instantly, even our very nervous rescue dog. Not only was she an amazing dog sitter, she was a fantastic house sitter. She sent multiple daily updates, photos, videos and all the pets and they all looked happy and content. I would highly recommend Nermina and will be booking her services again. 15/10”

I also am very big on clear, direct communication so I will send tons of updates and pictures. I love walks, your dog loves walks.. so Me+ Your Dog = Happy Walks. I’m a morning person so I’m up and early, ready to start. I am also attending college so I’ll be free from Monday, Tuesday- after 12pm afternoon Wednesday- free all day Thursday- after 4pm afternoon Friday, Saturday & Sunday- after 12pm afternoon ^ my schedule is extremely flexible so don’t be afraid to just send me a message. I most likely will make it despite the schedule time listed. My home is fenced in all around with lock pads to prevent trespassers. I believe in upholding safety to the highest. I also have two seperate floors and a fenced backyard.

About: I learned early on that wagging tails and puppy cuddles are the best part of life! With years of pet care experience, I ensure keeping dogs happy, healthy, and spoiled :) Currently working part time and doing online schooling! I’m available Monday/Tuesday/Friday from 7am-12pm Wednesday/Friday from 7am-8pm Saturday/Sunday from 8am-8pm Let me know what time works best for you :) I have two dogs in my home and keeping them happy and healthy is a main priority. Waking up to make sure they get their walks in because we all need our steps!! And then walking them at the end of the day so they are sleepy at nighttime :) They are basically my children.

“Alison was lovely. We requested her last minute but she somehow made it work to take care of our little baby rocky. She was on time, super sweet and very interested in learning about rocky. She send us pictures and told us updates of our baby almost every half an hour which was so sweet. Would definitely recommend booking with her :)”

“Meka is the BEST. She is an angel and so happy we found such a wonderful sitter for our golden retriever Franklin. She helped us out last minute in a pinch too. We could not ask for a better and more trustworthy and kind person to love Franklin while we are away!”

About: Hi my name is Evan! let’s begin with a little bit about myself to make sure that I am the perfect sitter/walker for you and your furry companions. Firstly it’s been a really big passion of mine to be able to work with all different kinds of animals and breeds. I have experience with mostly dogs, but I’m open to working with different types of animals as well because I believe in the importance of building and connecting with my pet parents from all different backgrounds. While giving you the full reassurance needed in order to feel comfortable and secure when entrusting me with your pet companion, I can assure you that I will give them the best possible care and support they deserve and need. I’ve worked with small breeds half my life and now I was given a chance to care for three larger dogs in my recent years. through the differences between caring for a small breeds and going into caring for a larger breeds I have learned more about the ways that they interact and how they respond to certain conditions. I’m capable of handling situations which call for a lot of patience and compassion. The example I want to make when working with your pet comes down to understanding who the pets are and how they will react. I’ve worked with not so social pets and overly social ones as well, before me and your pet will interact or leave the house I will build up a circle of trust and connection to see what kind of personality that they will have. I know from prior experience that some pets are not fans of each other or people and have a difficult time regulating their own emotions unless they’re are familiar with a specific environment or trigger. Some have the tendency to shy away and lean more towards the comfort of having someone who will help them feel safe and calm when around them. This is my specialty. This would be the part where we form an understanding and get to know all the important details about your pet, as someone who is still learning don’t feel pressured if I ask any questions my intentions are to make sure I know everything I need in order to give you and your pet the best possible experience I can offer. and it’s my favorite part about working with pet parents. thank you for viewing my profile and hopefully I met the requirements that you have been looking for have a great day! My schedule's flexible. Contact me for availability, especially early mornings or late evenings. Ready to discuss at your convenience. Let's find the perfect time together! When sitting for someone I treat their home with respect and care, I follow the instructions given and when checking in or staying overnight my main focus is on their pets needs and attention.

“Diana was great! She came through in the clutch after we had a last minute sitter cancellation. She spent quality time with Dinho multiple times a day, called right away the one time Dinho was acting up, and was easy to coordinate with. Would definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since elementary school. All of my family members love when i petsit. I have ton of experience with different types of animals. Anytime past 11am to 7 pm i’m available because I have an early morning online job that I take part in. If anything changes I’ll update this. I provide everything the animal needs. From food and water to toys and a clean place to use the bathroom. Animals also receive alot of attention.

About: { PLEASE KEEP READING FOR LATENESS INFO & PRICING } I have many years of experience with all types and sizes of dogs. I have been taking care of my own as well and have experience with behavioral dogs as well. I am able to take care of your fur baby all week and at most times depending on my schedule and how ahead your request is. I focus on just making sure the dog is safe and just overall having a good time. If training is needed to address behavior issues, I can provide that as well.

“Shannette was AMAZING. I HIGHLY recommend her. The app offers a service for nighttime dog sitting. We were able to arrange for daytime dog sitting in our home. My dog suffers stress-colitis and having him at a doggy hotel was not an option. Shannette was EXTREMELY trustworthy while we were away for 8 days on vacation. She kept him company at home, gave him lots of cuddles, checked in regularly with us, was punctual with walking him three times a day, cleaning his paws before entering the home after a walk (we have old carpet we’re trying to preserve) and always feeding him as scheduled. She was respectful of our home rules and I just can’t brag enough about how amazing Luca did while he was in her care. Our home was respected, our dog was cared for, and she was AMAZING as a human being! Don’t overthink it, book her. I HIGHLY recommend her!”

“Kristen had a calming presence that put our anxious dog at ease immediately. There was no panic when we left :) We were really happy with the experience and hope to work together again soon!”

About: Hi! I’m Jaime, a proud mom of three girls and two dogs. I’ve loved animals my whole life, work part-time bathing dogs at a grooming salon, and would love to care for your pets like they’re my own. I work only part time so i have extra time to take care of your pups! If its walking them feeding them or playing with them! I have a fenced yard and two little dogs myself that will keep your fur baby also occupied we can go for walks play ball

About: I've always loved being around animals. For as long as I could remember, I would help out and take care of my family and friends pets whenever they would be was away. Dogs, Cats, even Guinea pigs. It's something that I love doing, and I love to hang out with them and care for them :) When you book me, you are guaranteed to have the most passionate and high quality care. I value time and energy spent with your pets. It's what made me realize I wanted to do this more. I feel I can resonate with their energy, and get along with them very well. I also grew up having a dog, and though hes no longer with me I always love being around animals regardless. I aim to be available whenever I can! I am not in school, nor do I have any full time work. I'm open for pretty much all days including weekends and holidays. Regardless of the environment, or animal, cat or dog, I will always aim to make sure they are comfortable, fed and given affection. I'd walk and clean up after them when needed to. My house is always clean, and should I be at a client's house, I will make sure it looks exactly the same as it did when I arrived (better if possible)
