“We are so lucky to have found Paula, she's an absolute blessing! She is competent, reliable, responsive, and just overall a kind and lovely human! It was such a relief to know our furballs were in good hands while we were away. I cannot recommend Paula more highly, and we will definitely be using her again.”


“Noelle was the best with our cat!!! She was communicative, professional, and so genuinely kind! I absolutely plan to reach out again next time we go out of town!!! 😻”


About: *DOGS MUST BE GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS AND CATS* (I have TWO CATS and A DOG!!) My times for daycare are 8 am - 6 pm ONLY! (Mon-Fri) I have had dogs since I was a child. I’ve always had a love and care for any animal no matter the breed or size. During college, I worked at a vet as a daycare kennel assistant where I gained knowledge on the care of dogs. I know how to walk dogs, bathe them, cut their nails, etc. I work from home so I’m able to look over your fur baby! My boyfriend helps me from time to time and will help me look after any animal I have. I do go to the gym every so often so your dog needs to be able to be by themselves at least 1 hour, either crate trained or is able to be out without scratching or destroying anything. I have a fenced yard and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I have a border collie mix and 2 cats in my house who are used to being around other dogs and mostly keep to themselves! If needed, my cats are able to be separated from your fur baby.

“I’m truly grateful for the care Neve provided. We have two cats one is very old. Neve went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. A complete professional who displayed tremendous compassion to our cats. I can’t thank her enough.”


“excellent service took very well care of my dog while i was away on vacation over the weekend checked on her on schedule and walked her and fed her every visit couldn't have asked for better care thank u”


“Gabriella was so amazing to work with! We felt safe leaving our 3 cats in her care and she always provided thorough updates. Our cats are pretty wary of strangers and she was great at balancing giving them their space but also showing them affection. We would 100% recommend booking Gabriella and are looking forward to working with her again in the future. We had an overall lovely experience booking with Gabriella, and were able to fully enjoy ourselves on our two weeks away knowing our cats were safe and well cared for.”


“Nervana was wonderful! My dogs require medication 2x a day and she ensured they received everything they needed. The pictures she sent at each visit put my mind at rest. Thank you!!”


“Melisa's cat-sitting service was excellent. We were glad to come home to find Benny happy, well-fed, and given lots of attention - and the apartment was kept clean. Our cat has special needs so it was a relief to be able to rely on Melisa's dependable communication and dedication to her work. It's clear she has a lot of love and compassion for pets!”


About: Since the day i was born i have had a small zoo in my home. Over the years i have had pets such as cats, dogs, birds, fish, reptiles and small animals. I absolutely love caring for my animals and it means the world to me to see them healthy and living their best lives! I currently have a 70+ lb pitbull of my own and spend alot of my free time volunteering at an Animal shelter in NJ. Most of that time is spent walking large (sometimes reactive) dogs, so large breeds and strong pullers are not a problem! I am available for drop ins and walks Monday- Friday (and certain weekends). As long as i do not already have a booking, i am usually available too help my fellow animal lovers with their pet care needs! I never leave animals unattended outside ( including fenced in yards). I also assure that all food and treats being offered are approved by the pet parents which i am working with. I also am very careful about keeping dangerous/toxic household items and plants far out of reach of any animals!

“We are a repeat customers of Oleg. This time he took care of my dog while we were away for the entire week. He took such great care of her! He walked her and petted her and made sure she was eating. I could not be happier with how he treated my dog, it is as if she was his own pet. He loves animals and it shows. And special thank you for saving a baby turtle that fell into our pool.”

About: I have life-long experience with caring for animals and I bring energy, love, and dedication to every one of them.ever since middle school I have walked dogs, boarded small animals, and housesit for neighbors, and now I spoil my own dog daily. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats, to fish, gerbils, rabbits, and even reptiles. I’m also skilled in puppy training, senior dog care, and providing personalized attention to every pet. (For high energy dogs- I’m also a runner so if you want me to take your dog for a jog just let me know) With my 8:30-4 work schedule, I have evenings and weekends free to offer consistent care, including feeding, walking, and playing with your pet : ) When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize both their safety and comfort. I follow any specific care instructions, such as feeding schedules or medication, and specific routines you animal has. I also keep the home clean and tidy, respecting the client's space while ensuring their pets are happy and safe.

About: Growing up, I have always looked after dogs of close friends and family, and have studied nutrition and health, which led me to work at a pet hotel for about a year with almost every dog breed. My responsibilities included prepping food, cleaning, 1 on 1 play, and group play. I have been in charge of up to 20 dogs at 1 time. I also co-own a dog named Luna. The other owner and I had Luna since she was a puppy and she is now 5 years old. I teach obedience/behavior training to many dogs and I develop trust with dogs that is unique to my experience with various breeds. It takes patience and consistency to be a great leader for dogs and I wear my heart on my sleeve for every dog I'm caring for; communication with your dog is key. I currently work part time and make Dog care apart of my every day routine, if I'm not with my dog I'm working with other dogs. I have a good size open backyard and toys depending on the play style of your dog; crate training is much appreciated if they are familiar. Walks are frequent, especially for high energy dogs

I always want to make sure that you have peace of mind when your fur baby is in my care. I am available for dog walking as well as dog sitting, and doggie daycare, inside your home or at my pet-friendly home. I have cared for many of my friends and family’s dogs both large and small, both boarding and sitting in their home. In addition to feeding, walking, and playing with them, I would also make sure to clean their face and eyes, and wipe their paws after walks. One of the dogs had diabetes, so I know how to administer insulin injections and other meds. I take heed in listening to and following your care instructions and will always keep in touch with you via phone and send pictures. I am also available for meet and greets should you wish beforehand to better put your mind at ease. I am available in Staten Island, Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, and Brooklyn.

Sandra was simply amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well cared for while we were away. Not only was our kitty fed on time, but Sandra also made sure she got plenty of playtime and attention, keeping her routine just as if we were home. We felt completely at ease knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. We’ll definitely book Sandra again for our next trip!

We are regular customers of Oleg. He is so great with my dog. He loves animals and it shows. He takes great care of my dog and he is very attentive. He knows my dog pretty well by now and always lets me know if he notices something unusual. Highly recommend Oleg!

Gabriella did a great job taking care of my cats. She was professional, reliable, and made sure they were well looked after. I felt comfortable leaving them in her care, and everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to others looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

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!
