“Lorre & Antonio are superstars! They were so great with our cats and so thorough. Very communicative and sent so many drop-in pictures 2x daily. They were able to administer insulin injections to my diabetic cat which is a huge plus. They really kept on top of everything and the apartment was just how we left it (our Vicky is a messy eater who hairballs). They took the time to play and brush Louis & Victoria as well. I very highly recommend Lorre & Antonio. We will be booking them again for our future trips. Thanks so much again!”

“Cam is attentive, proactive, and thorough. Our booking occurred during the blizzard, He stayed in constant contact and came to our rescue when we were stranded overseas. Cam is a gem. We will happily book with Cam in the future.”

About: I have taken care of friends and family pets over the course of this year some long-term and some short term. Frequent dog park visits and timely feedings. I can accommodate all types of diets, raw kibble, and specialty foods. I currently work full-time however I have a rotating schedule so I can often pet sit and drop in weekdays if needed and weekends. I am off in the mornings so drop and visits are easy for people who work 9 to 5 and just want their dog to have some extra time out or to just check in on the cats. There is an option of having your pet here in my space all to themselves or with my personal pets. I have different options of sleeping accommodations for your pet cage, cot and cushioned. Though I do not have a fenced in yard, I have a dog park in my complex as well as a dog park 4 minutes away by car. I can accommodate all diets, including raw diet.
“Julia is a superb pet sitter. We were travelling out of the country leaving behind our 3 highly pampered cats, the eldest of which is 18 years old. She took beautiful care of them, twice a day, and kept us posted with updates and pictures. She cleaned up after them, brushed them, changed the litter and food, and got rid of the garbage just as I had instructed. The house smelled fresh and was clean when we got back. I could not ask for a better pet sitter. Her care made our vacation much more relaxed. The cats were happy too.”

“We feel very fortunate to have found Kimberly to look after our daughter’s cat while we were away visiting family during Christmas week. Kimberly did a drop in visit at our house each day, and sent daily pics to our daughter - which she really appreciated. The cat got to stay at home, we had daily contact and peace of mind, and at a much lower cost than a kennel or cat hotel. A real win-win. Thanks so much, Kimberly !”


About: I have owned a black lab for 8 years, so I’m very comfortable around dogs and understand the responsibility that comes with caring for them every day. I have also helped watch and care for other dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, including feeding, walking, playing, and checking in on them while owners are away. As a college athlete, I am very active, responsible, and dependable, so I can easily keep up with energetic dogs and regular routines. I enjoy spending time outdoors and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a college athlete, I am very active and used to staying on a consistent schedule. I usually take care of my own dog daily by feeding him, walking him in the mornings, playing with him, and helping get his energy out. I enjoy being outdoors and staying active, so I’m always happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, and make sure they are comfortable and well cared for throughout the day. I care for every dog like they are my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I have experience taking care of my 8-year-old black lab, including feeding, walking, playing, and keeping up with his daily routine. I understand the importance of trust, consistency, and making sure pets get enough exercise and attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I will always follow instructions carefully and make sure pets are happy, active, and safe.
About: I am 30 years old and would love to be your choice to help you take care of your babies! I am an engineer at Entegris and work on site Mon - Fri, 6am - 3:30pm. My hours of availability are 4:30pm - 9:30pm during the work week. I am also available for walking and check-ins on weekends from 8am to 10pm (Saturday & Sunday). I have 2 kids who are 4.5 years and 7 months old respectively, i pick them up from daycare around 4 and then spend the afternoon with my boys. My pup (Sophie) is 7.5 years old and is a beagle/pit mix. I would love to spend some time with your furry family member while you are not able to! I currently work full time and would be able to come play with your pup any time after 4! Unfortunately house sitting will be rather difficult at this time. We have a fenced back yard and live in a quiet neighborhood in Ridgefield. At clients homes I am always respectful of house rules and make sure to follow the guidelines.

About: I have several years of hands on experience caring for a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs and cats I just love animals. I am available 7 days a week June through August. I have a very flexible schedule right now for pet sitting and taking care of pets. I currently have four pets two dogs and two cats in my home. They are all very important members of my family and I will treat any pet like it’s my own.
About: I've spent years caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every pup like family. From energetic walks to calm companionship, I adapt to your dogs needs. I'm responsible, patient, and genuinely love what I do. Your pets safety and happiness always comes first. As a college student who is home for the summer. I have a pretty flexible schedule, I'm available morning, afternoons, and evenings - perfect for regular walks, drop-ins, or overnight care throughout the week. I care for pets in their home by sticking to their routine, give them lots of love, keep things clean, and ensure they feel safe and relaxed.
“Molly was great with Bella! Communication was on point (quick responses and always confirmed a day before), received cute photos of Bella playing in the backyard, seems like they had the best time! Would absolutely trust Molly again with my dog!”

About: Dogs are kind of my daily coworkers. I spend my days around animals of all types and personalities, so caring for pets feels second nature to me. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, from bouncy puppies who want to play nonstop to seniors who prefer a slower pace and extra TLC. Long walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are my favorite parts of the job, and since I work from home, your dog will never be left alone or bored. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved, basically treating them like my own. Important to note that during house sitting in the pet owner’s home, my dogs stay at home with my fiance (unless they are requested by owners for a play date) so I can still watch your pup if they’re better while not around other dogs! I work from home and I have two acres of property - your pet will not not be alone and can play with my two dogs! I care for pets by treating them like part of the household, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to their normal routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and downtime, so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention through walks, play sessions, and lots of interaction throughout the day. Since I work from home, pets are rarely alone and always supervised. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that’s extra play for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency for puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and having a great time.
About: Hello! My name is Ellen! I don’t remember a time where there wasn’t a dog in the house. I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and animals! I’ve trained two of my dogs, one of them was training with me to become a therapy dog, unfortunately he passed before he could do all the tests. I’ve taken care of my mom’s elderly coonhound and neighbors dogs. Life is better with dogs!! I can spend as much time with your pet as they need. I'm on summer break from school and looking to putting my love for animals to work. When I petsit for neighbors, the pet is my #1 priority. At my home, we have two dogs who are very dog friendly and would love the company. At your house, I can pick up your dog or stay there and watch them. I value privacy, and I reflect that when I enter someone’s home.
“From the moment we met Diana my dog and kitten both responded to her with no hesitation- my dog loved her from first meeting. Our trip was extended and she was flexible with all the back and forth changes . Which we really appreciate and was reassuring! Not only did she add on last minute service, she also was ready to adjust payment ( credit) for scheduling changes . I am thankful to have found her, and will happily ask for continued help with Diana!”

About: I have had 2 dogs ever since I was a child. I take care of them myself which includes taking them on walks, playing in the yard, giving them food and water and making sure they are satisfied and comfortable in their home and vet visits of course! I have been dog walking and dog sitting as well for about 3 years now and love the company they bring! I would love to care for your pets and help you out in a time of need! I am a college student. Some of my classes are virtual so I am home a decent amount. I am home Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday all day and night. On Tuesday and Thursday I have classes from 12:00-4:00 but am available before and after that. I have a fenced in yard which allows me to be able to go outside with the dog and play freely. I love when dogs are able run around and get exercise in without the worry of the dog running away.
“Natalia did a great job looking after my cats. They are shy but she did a good job finding them in their hiding spots, and she did a good job communicating with us while we were away.”
