House Sitting in Spuyten Duyvil, Bronx, NY

“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”

“Kamryn is FANTASTIC! Our 80 pound Lab Whitby absolutely loves her and was sad to see her go. We highly recommend Kamryn for house/dog sitting and hope to have her back again this summer!”

About: I owned two dogs up until the age of 16 and loved them dearly. I often took my dogs out for long walks and played with them to make sure they were always active & engaged. Since then, I’ve dog/cat sat for numerous friends and neighbors throughout and post college. I always treat others’ animals with the same love and care as I did with my own! I currently work from home, so I have the flexibility to walk or play with your dog before 9am or in the afternoon and evenings if needed! Unfortunately I am unable to host at this time due to my resistance not allowing dogs, but I am available to dog sit in your home! I will ensure the comfort and safety of your dog at all times in a clean environment and can provide any specific additional/necessary support needed!

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies since I was 14. I grew up with a loving red nose pitbull, Raja, who was my lifelong friend. When she passed away we had two blue nose pit bulls ~ Zuma & Chinx. These babies were so loving, protective , fun, and crazy. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. So I want to treat your fur babies the way I would my own. What I offer is love, compassion, kindness, and TREATS!! I am currently a full time student and mom! I do this in between my school load and volunteering at my little ones school. So, I can handle the work, provide love / support, and send cute fur baby mail!! 🐶🐱 I would treat these babies like they are my own, which means an experience that is unique. These animals will be treated with the upmost love, respect, care, and devotion. You need to have no worries with me!

“Max was great, he spent time getting to know my dog. He was calm and friendly with him, taking time to understand him a bit. He kept me updated on his status, he walked, fed, and played with him during house sitting. He also replied quickly to the request, and came out on short notice.”

“Raiysa was great with Ekko! She listened to everything we asked from her, and Ekko was really relaxed with her. He even ate and he never eats when we’re gone!”

About: My current pet dog has been with me for over 12 years. I have trained several puppies and untrained adult dogs. I have fostered a few. Have long experience with long-term senior care with my parents' dog and my own dog. I sit for my friends' and sisters' dogs and also boarded them. I can handle any dog and am nurturing. I will look after your dog like they are my own. I work from home and take care of my own dog. I have a flexible schedule and can be available on short notice. Can travel if need be. My dog is very laid-back, well-trained, and patient, and walk her 3-4 times a day. She has a nice space in the house with plenty of access to water and a very comfortable bed. She's been trained to avoid certain areas of the house so she doesn't get into any trouble, such as the kitchen and bathroom. I am very diligent about following any medical care instructions. I can walk dogs with varying exercise needs, and am physically strong enough to handle strong pups. And it goes without saying that I'm very responsive to phone calls, texts, and emails if any updates are desired.

About: I grew up with both Cats and Dogs and have experience as a pet owner as I have 2 cats of my own. I also have a lot of experience as a sitter/boarder and professional dog walking! I’m comfortable administering medicine and dealing with aging pets needs. I have some experience with puppies and kittens as well. I have equal experience with cats and dogs and love them both! House Sitting, Dog Walking, and Drop-Ins: I have experience with house sitting and drop-ins so no need to worry. I am very trustworthy and dependable! I’m good at following directions. I’ve seen it all :) I know a lot of beautiful walking routes in the area. I took a break from rover for a while, but I’ve continued to pet sit and dog walk the entire time just not on here. I can provide more references if needed. I have two cats that are comfortable around dogs for boarding. Let me know if you have any questions. I’m a student so I have plenty of time during the summer months. Sitting and drop ins work fine with my own cats schedules as I have roommates they love to hangout with while I’m gone. I drop by to feed them dinner and they snack on dry food in the mornings. My schedule is flexible and open! I listen to owners as they know their pet best. Willing to follow even the most hyper specific directions to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe.

“Jorge is a responsible and responsive pet sitter. He sent me proactive emails and even came over to meet my pet and see his routine before he pet sat for me, which I really appreciated!”

About: I grew up with cats and they felt like sisters to me. I enjoy spending time with animals as they are very healing to me. I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your furry children :) I follow the instructions and notes given by clients or friends very carefully. I understand the boundaries the animal sets and I let it come to me when it’s ready.

About: Hello! I am so excited to get to know the lovely furry neighbors of my community! I have grown up my entire life around dogs and all types of animals. I currently have two family dogs myself I walk when I visit my childhood home, each with their own unique personality when it comes to walking, so I completely understand the key to a good walk is patience and awareness for the dogs energy. I started walking dogs from a very early age, so I have lots of experience. I promise your fur babies will have the greatest time and be in safe hands! Plus, I love taking as many photos as I can 💗 I currently work full-time but typically have mornings free, Wednesday’s and Sunday’s free. I always try and make time for dog walks and I’m very communicative about whether or not a walk time would work for me. In my home I have parks nearby and a nicely sized living room. At clients homes I’m always very respectful of the space and typically try to take the dog out for walks as much as possible if that’s their energy.

“Amazing experience Archie was so happy”

“Absolutely would recommend Tosha for all dog sitting needs. She made time to meet ahead of time and took great care to understand Lady’s needs and preferences. She was very responsive and gave daily updates and photos throughout her time caring for Lady. She left my apartment is perfect condition and I came home to a very happy pup.”

About: I grew up working at a boarding kennel with large dogs and have had my own pets in the city for 10+ years now. Lots of dog walking experience of different kinds of dogs over the years, but I love my current neighborhood because it is ideal for dogs with parks and fenced in runs steps away. I have lots of perches up for my cat and multiple spaces for animals to coexist in. I wake up each morning to feed my cat and spend time with her before work from home and then will help walk neighbors pets from time to time when they have a need as well. I have multiple areas setup depending on your pets mood or temperament. I love dogs and cats and any that like to cuddle are welcome to sit on my lap if they fit or next to me on the couch while I work. They will get at least 3 walks a day, preferably 4 to make sure they don't have any accidents and get their energy out. Animals with issues can use pee pads and I'll be able to manage that as I work from home. I put on soothing background music and nature videos for my rescue cat already who mostly sleeps in the window and am happy to play any specific type of music or sound for your pet if they are a sensitive baby. I can also give a pet a wide berth and private area to relax if they prefer their space and be sure to give them lots of treats and toys to make their stay relaxing and not stressful.
