“What a lovely cat sitter 💜💜💜 we had a last minute PANIC because our original cat sitter e for sick and couldn’t do it. Hansol swooped in at the last minute and was a massive help! Took great care of the cats and garden. Highly recommend.”

“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’ve grown up helping care for my family dog, Cannoli, for the past 10 years, so I’m very familiar with daily pet care routines like feeding, walking, and playtime. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. My schedule is flexible and allows me to dedicate time to pet care. I’m available most mornings and afternoons, as well as some evenings and weekends. I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I carefully follow each pet’s routine including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions.

About: I'm a reliable, compassionate pet sitter who truly loves animals and understands how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else's care. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to more relaxed or senior pets. My background as an EMT and in healthcare makes me attentive, responsible and calm in situations. I'm very detailed oriented, so ill follow your pet's routine closely- feeding schedules, walks, medications and any other special instructions. whether your pet needs playtime, long walks or just extra love and comfort while you're away, ill treat them like my own! your pet's safety, happiness and well-being are always my top priority! I work Monday through Friday 8am-5pm. I live very close to work and get to go home to walk/ feed my own dog during my lunch time. I have availability Wednesdays and Fridays during 12-1pm to drop in/ walk/ feed your pup! After 5pm I walk my dog again and have availability to also walk/ stop in/ feed yours as well. I don't work weekends and have full availability to be with your pet as needed. Starting October 2026, I'll have availability for Tuesdays, Thursdays and weekends for all services + boarding. Proof of updated vaccinations will be required as I need to protect my own pets as well! I have a fenced in yard and very friendly dog who loves to play and relax with other dogs or cats! My dog gets home cooked meals that are prepped for him to last all week. He also gets kibble mixed in! He loves daily walks/ drives and fresh water! I will make sure your dog also gets walks, food and potty breaks or drives if they love drives! My cat is very social and friendly as well, she tends to be more independent and changing her litter, feeding her fresh food and fresh water for her daily is very important. Cats can be very particular with their water, food and playtime and I will make sure to follow that for your cat.

“Danny was super responsive and spent some time with our precious pup on a day we were away for longer than he’s used to. Will definitely have Danny watch Bennie again! :)”

About: I have taken care of Samoyeds my whole life. Many of my own dogs have had litters that I’ve taken care of. I’ve also taken care of my neighbors dogs which range in size from chihuahuas to German shepherds. My main career is mainly remote so I’m able to stay at home and take care of dogs. My own pets are taken out twice a day and fed twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night. In my house we usually cage our dogs until everyone is home so we have enough eyes to watch them. If you need me to stay with your dog the entire time that shouldn’t be a problem.

About: I’ve had a dog my entire life and I have worked with dogs in Animal Shelters in New York and North Carolina. I’ve worked with all types of dogs and I have had a great experience each time! I am currently working Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and I am free Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday and would love to care for dogs in my free time. As a dog owner, I understand the importance of trusting the person caring for your dog. I will keep a close eye on your dog because I know that’s what I would want if someone was watching my dog

“Hannah is absolutely amazing! She took exceptional care of my two dogs, Max and Romeo, and they both adored her from the moment she walked in. Her kindness and warmth were immediately evident, and I could see how comfortable my dogs felt around her. Hannah went above and beyond to ensure they were happy, and received plenty of attention and playtime. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals, and her gentle approach made such a positive impact. I couldn’t have asked for a more caring and responsible pet sitter. Highly recommend Hannah for anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family!”

About: I had my very own dog when she was born until she passed. I absolutely love animals and will treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I can make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’m patient, caring, and always follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable. You can count on me to give your pet lots of attention—and I’ll even send photo updates so you can see how great they’re doing Currently work a full time job weekdays to provide for my daughter and I. I’m available both Saturday and Sundays after 10:30am that way I can spend time with your fur baby and love/care for them as my own. When I care for pets, whether it’s in my home or a client’s, I can make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their normal routine for meals, walks, and playtime so everything feels familiar to them. I love giving them lots of attention, cuddles, and play! If I’m in a client’s home, I’m always respectful and keep things tidy. I also like to send updates and cute pictures so you can see how happy your pet is while you’re away.

About: I've loved animals my whole life and grew up around animal shelters thanks to my sister, who is a veterinarian. I'm very active, play sports, and love walking, so I'm happy to keep up with dogs of any energy level. I treat every pet like they're my own and always focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. With school out for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I'm available throughout the week and can easily accommodate your dog's routine and walking needs. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, extra exercise, or regular visits, I'm happy to work with your schedule. I believe great pet care goes beyond just the walk itself. I take the time to make sure each pet is safe, comfortable, hydrated, and ready for our outing. I pay attention to their individual needs, whether that's extra playtime, a slower pace, or lots of exercise. I also help keep their space clean and comfortable so both pets and owners can feel at ease knowing they're in good hands.

“Caleigh took such good care of our cat. He was relaxed with her and she was punctual with her visits. We appreciate feeling safe leaving him in her care.”

“Andrea was amazing! She immediately put me at ease when we met her, asked all of the right questions and was so sweet to our two cats. I appreciated Andrea's thorough communication while we were gone (and she even sent me a note the day before we left confirming timing for the next day, which I really appreciate!) She was on-time for our visits and sent lots of info and photos. I will definitely book Andrea to watch our cats again! Thanks Andrea <3”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old (but would have started earlier if I was allowed!). I am extremely experienced in walking dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments as I grew up volunteering to walk and babysit dogs in my neighborhood and for family and friends. I cared extensively for my family dog who faced many health struggles up until he passed away in 2021 at the age of 15. Just over a year ago, I got and trained a new puppy from the age of seven weeks who lives full time with my parents while I am at school. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time for pet care! My schedule varies week to week, but I am extremely flexible and available! I am extremely attentive and accommodating to all needs. Due to my passion for animals and experience caring for dogs specifically, I am more than capable of prioritizing safety and individual needs depending on the environment and service provided.

About: Surrounded by doggy siblings growing up and now as an auntie to my nieces and nephews, I love to care for your furry children! Your pets will be in great hands. I currently work in a hybrid schedule at my 9-5. I enjoy caring for doggy friends on the weekends and before and after work when needed. I am constantly on top of making sure pets feel at home and comfortable in a new space. I will also make sure pets feel safe and loved when in their own space.

“Joseph always goes above and beyond as a pet sitter. He is an incredibly good communicator and I know that my dog is being well loved and taken care of under Joseph’s care. My dog is very active and still has lots of puppy energy, but Joseph remains patient with him and makes sure that my dog can safely get his energy out.”

About: I bring attentive, knowledgeable care tailored to your specific creature and their specific personality. I've been pet parent to dogs of all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes to my current Sheepadoodle — there's no dog size or personality that's too much or too little, IMHO. And my experience extends well beyond dogs — cats, snakes, farm animals 🐐, and more. I also happen to share my home with a ball python named Fettuccine Alfredo 🐍, who is a distinguished, low-drama fellow. As a plant parent, I will watch after yours indoor jungles, outdoor gardens, that one fiddle leaf fig you're nervous about. If you need someone who will actually look at your monstera and not just splash water in its general direction, that's me. (My avocado tree, grown from a pit, is thriving. I'm not taking questions.) Housesitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, basic training — I've got you. And if you're going away and need the whole ecosystem looked after, pets, plants, and all, I'd love to meet you. Pet care fits naturally into the rhythm of my week. My mornings are consistently free, which works well for walks and drop-in visits, and I have flexibility on Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends for longer stays or housesitting. On days when I'm teaching in the afternoons and evenings, I'm still available in the mornings — and I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so I'm never stretched too thin across clients. This isn't something I'm squeezing in around a packed schedule — it's something I've made genuine room for. When I'm in your home for drop-in visits or housesitting, I treat it with the same care and attention I'd give my own. That means following your routines exactly as you've set them, keeping things tidy, and making sure your pets are comfortable and unstressed in their own environment. I take detailed notes at meet-and-greets so nothing gets missed while you're away. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and attentive to their individual energy and needs — a reactive dog gets a very different walk than a social butterfly, and I know the difference. I bring over thirty years of animal experience to reading body language and behavior, so I'm not caught off guard by much. My own home includes a ball python and two cats, so I'm well practiced in managing a multi-species household safely and calmly. I don't offer boarding, which means your dog's visit to my home would only ever be for a meet-and-greet in a low-key, relaxed setting. In any situation that feels off — health, behavior, anything — I err on the side of contacting you immediately and getting to a vet if needed. You'll never be left guessing.

About: Hi there! I've been surrounded by animals since I was a little boy and I've never stopped loving them since! I've had 9 cats and 3 dogs throughout my life with my family, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I volunteered all 4 years during high school at animal shelters to care for stray/abandoned cats and dogs. All animals bring so much joy to my heart, although I don't have kids of my own yet - I care for all animals as if they were my own children. If your furry friend needs a little TLC grooming or medication, I am more than happy to ensure they are on schedule. I have a private home in Bayside, if needed more space it can be utilized (w/ fenced yard). Please message me to arrange any bookings, I always do my best to be flexible with all my clients. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

About: I've been around animals and taken care of pets my whole life. I am here for whatever your pet's needs are. Experience with puppies to senior dogs. I am working FT, so I am available Mon - Fri in the early mornings (6 am) evenings (after 5 pm) and anytime on the weekends. I am flexible with whatever you need me to do for your pet, whether it be daily walks (time specification by owner), specific playtime or feedings, simple medications.

“Lorenzo did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Lacey! He came over for a few hours, took her on a nice walk, played with her, and made sure she was comfortable and happy the entire time. It was clear that Lacey felt at ease with him, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’d absolutely recommend Lorenzo to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter!”
