About: I’m active and super into fitness so I love to keep a furry companion alongside me as I walk. Dog walking is a great way for me to interact with lovely pets and people and I enjoy being able to be a trustworthy safe human for cute animals! Im currently a full time student at Hunter College, and I commute from Staten Island. I am open to dog walking and sitting in Staten Island and Manhattan as needed ! I love and appreciate animals and am honored to care for yours. I love to do pet sitting with my friends animals, it always brings me peace and I am easygoing around animals. I love to walk dogs more than anything and I always feel like I’m having a blast!

About: I’m dependable and reliable, attention to detail is my jam and I’m comfortable walking with small and big dogs or taking care of cats, even if it takes a while to warm up to a stranger in their home/space! even the most prickly cats eventually get won over! I’m currently working part time and my schedule is flexible! I love being able to walk and get outside or stay indoors to hang out with cats and dogs! I live with a disabled cat so making sure the apartment is safe and cat-proofed is key, and when pet sitting I make sure all escape routes are secured, feeding times and walk times are kept to schedule, and that there’s always room for play time!

“Ismail was able to watch Onion with a few days notice. he provided so many photos and video and made sure our Onion was entertained. we will always recommend Ismail for any cat drop in needs!”

“He was a doll. Was on time Worked with my nervous dog and was a delivht”


About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a teenager. Whether it was going to a relatives house or taking local neighbors dogs on walks. I am very flexible and I am able to accommodate early and late drop offs. I am available during the week, weekends and many of the holidays. I sweep daily to keep small objects off the floor. I keep an eye on the dog at all times. If the dog is crate trained I follow the same schedule that you have.

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: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my combination of experience, specialized skills, and genuine love for animals. I go beyond basic care to ensure that every pet feels safe, happy, and loved in my presence. Here’s how I stand out: 1. Customized Care for Every Pet: I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, from their favorite toys to specific feeding routines, creating a comfortable and stress-free experience tailored to their personality. 2. Specialized Skills: • Puppy Training: I have experience teaching basic commands, house training, and socialization, helping puppies develop good habits early on. • Senior Pet Care: I’m skilled in caring for older pets, including administering medications, accommodating mobility challenges, and providing extra comfort and attention. 3. Health and Safety Expertise: I’m well-versed in recognizing signs of illness or distress and am trained in basic pet first aid, so you can trust your pet’s health is in good hands. 4. Enrichment and Engagement: I prioritize mental and physical stimulation through interactive play, puzzle toys, and exercise tailored to your pet’s energy level and preferences. 5. Reliable and Trustworthy Service: I treat your home with the utmost respect and maintain open communication, providing updates and photos so you can rest assured your pet is thriving. 6. Genuine Passion for Animals: My dedication goes beyond just a job—I see pet care as a way to build a bond and make a positive impact on their lives. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, requires attentiveness, consistency, and adaptability to meet the individual needs of each animal. Here’s a breakdown of how I approach pet care in both settings: Caring for Pets in My Home: 1. Establishing a Routine: • I create a daily schedule for feeding, exercise, playtime, grooming, and rest, ensuring stability and comfort for my pets. • Meal times are consistent, and fresh water is always available. 2. Creating a Safe and Enriching Environment: • I ensure my home is pet-proofed, with no access to harmful plants, toxic substances, or dangerous objects. • I provide toys, scratching posts, and cozy sleeping areas tailored to their preferences. 3. Health and Hygiene: • I maintain clean litter boxes or outdoor areas for bathroom needs. • Regular grooming, nail trimming, and dental care are part of the routine. • I stay vigilant for signs of illness and keep up with vaccinations, vet checkups, and preventative care. 4. Bonding and Training: • I dedicate time daily for play, affection, and positive reinforcement training to build trust and strengthen our bond. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, as I prioritize the well-being, happiness, and health of the animals I care for. Here’s how it fits into my schedule: in the morning i start off by Feeding: I start the day by preparing fresh meals according to the pet’s specific dietary needs. Hydration: I ensure water bowls or fountains are clean and filled with fresh water. Bathroom Needs: For cats, I scoop litter boxes daily, and for dogs, I schedule morning walks to give them a chance to stretch and relieve themselves. During midday i help them Exercise: I schedule play sessions or walks to keep pets physically active and mentally stimulated. Engagement: This could include interactive toys, training sessions, or just quality time spent bonding with the pet. Cleaning: I tidy up their spaces, such as washing food bowls, refreshing bedding, or cleaning up any messes. In the evening it is Dinner Time: Another feeding session, ensuring pets stick to their routine. Grooming: For long-haired pets or those that shed a lot, I brush their fur. Nail trimming or light cleaning (like wiping paws) happens as needed. And finally Wind-Down: I end the day with calm activities, like cuddling or relaxing together, ensuring they feel secure before bedtime.

About: Hey, I’m Becca! I’ve always had a love for dogs and have two dogs of my own. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I’d love to be that person for you! Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or just a little extra attention, I’m here to help. Let’s make sure your furry friend stays happy and active! I am a college student so I go to school during the week. I am available on the weekends, so on Friday Saturday and Sunday. I have a large fenched backyard that my dogs play in. I have two playful and friendly dogs at home who sleep in my bed with me every night.

About: I’ve owned my pug, Pinky, for 14 years and have grown up with her. During this time, I’ve gradually grown attentive to her needs and different emotions depending on her body language. We adopted Fendi 4 years ago, and I’ve learned to multitask with their age difference and introduce unfamiliar dogs in a safe manner. I’m currently staying home from college and am looking to spend my free time doing something I love. I have two dogs at home that I currently take care of, and would love to be able to provide a safe and comforting environment for other dogs as well. I have two friendly dogs and a fenced yard with plenty of space for them to play. I also have a crate and extra dog supplies if needed.

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do it’s something I love. With over seven years of hands on experience, I’ve worked with pups of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure and play, to senior dogs who deserve gentle care and patience. But what truly sets me apart isn’t just my background it’s how I show up for every dog I meet. I believe dogs need more than just food and potty breaks they thrive on connection, routine, and fun. Whether it’s going on engaging walks, getting in some solid playtime, working on basic training, or just lounging with belly rubs and calm companionship, I focus on giving each dog exactly what they need to feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own and I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pet. That’s why I keep you updated, send pics, and make sure your pup is not only well cared for, but genuinely enjoying their time Believe your dog is in great hands. Pet care is a daily priority, including feeding, exercise, and affection, ensuring seamless integration into my routine, prioritizing furry companions' well-being, and with weekly tasks like grooming and vet visits ensuring their well-being. In my client's home, I tailor pet care to their specific needs, providing feeding, exercise, and companionship. Home care varies based on service type and client preferences.

“Carmine was great with my foster dog! He stopped in to meet her first and she just loved him! He's obviously a dog lover who will take good care of your pooches!”


About: I've been working with pets most of my life, and after years of studying positive training methods, I've been blessed with the ability to make the best job in the world, my full-time job. In fact my schedule is currently a bit too full so I had to raise my rates recently. However I love meeting new clients and my rates are negotiable, especially for: - multiple pets - former clients - frequent service Either way I aim to donate at least 10% of revenue to charity. Currently I'm focusing most on farmkind.giving - an organization that supports the most cost effective non-profits for animals and the planet. I bring lots of treats and potty bags on every walk. When it's hot I also bring plenty of water and a bowl for your pup. I usually send pictures from every session and I am happy to provide as many updates as you'd like. I also regularly check dogs for ticks, especially after going through tall grass. Btw I'm also a former marathon runner so I'm confident I can handle even the most energetic pups. Especially since I love using positive reinforcement along the way. I find it almost always lead to better behavior and a more enjoyable walk.

I knew I made the right choice when my shy boy made friends with Realla when they first met. My cats were well taken care of and their were consistent updates. The cans were taken out and the place was left clean!

She was consistent with her visits while we were away, and took care of the cats well. When we returned, the cats' bowls were full and they were well and happy to see us. She sent us pictures of our sociable cat, and he looked as curious and happy as he always does. She did everything we asked of us and was pleasant the entire time. We are grateful for her time and services!
