“Elizabeth had quite the scare today walking Iggy. Iggy went off happily with Aunt Liz for a first time walk. They had a good walk until Iggy saw 8 flying deer in our local park ( where I had asked her to walk Iggy). Iggy pulls when she sees deer and pulled a bit too hard and got loose. Elizabeth ran after her but Iggy runs pretty fast. She couldn’t contact me because it was my Sabbath. Therefore, Elizabeth called the police and asked local folks for help. Within half an hour, Iggy was found by the police near the park and returned to Elizabeth who had photos of Iggy to prove that she was Iggys dog walker. I picked Elizabeth as a dog walker because of her solid reviews. Despite this being a very scary situation, Elizabeth kept her cool snd did all the right things to get Iggy safely home. And the pics are adorable!!!”


About: I have been cat/dog sitting for 3 years now. I have experience taking care of cats. Ive also watched many different types of dogs including large ones. Ive always been a huge animal lover and growing up around dogs always walking and taking care of them, making sure they get the love they deserve. I love doing anything that I can for the animal community Im currently working on online college so im looking to get any side jobs i can in the meantime to try and make some money right now In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions and routines to maintain consistency for the pet, and I always respect their space and privacy. I give regular updates to the owner, and I’m prepared to handle emergencies responsibly. I keep their living areas clean, make sure they are fed and have fresh water daily and pay close attention to their health, including administering medication if required. Overall, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with patience, affection, and attentive care

“Candice was so communicative and made me feel at ease before she even arrived at the house. This was my first time using Rover and first time having someone walk Mocha without a previous introduction. It was so nice to know that Mocha was in good hands and Candice went above and beyond in making sure she got a good walk in and had time to pee/poop. I'm so appreciative of Candice and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: Hey there! My name is Keri and I currently live on the UWS with my husband Chris. We recently moved to a two bedroom so more room for play space! We have two female Boston Terriers who are up to date on shots and spayed. They also go for regular check-ups with a family vet. Including our vet I also know someone who I have easy access to that work with animals so everyone is in safe hands! I don't work, so I will always be with the pups, unless errands are being ran. When I am not around pets are secure since we are all too familiar with "puppy proofing" for the pets safety and the safety of my furniture! =) While your pup stay with us we go for potty breaks during the day as needed and then after dinner we take a family walk to St. Nicholas' Dog run near City College. If your pup doesn't get along well with a certain breed, please advice me so I know in advance. Sleeping quarters can be whatever the pup chooses. If your pet has a preference please let us know.Otherwise there are two beds, couches, ect. Hope to hear from you soon!

Naomi J.
“If there's anyone in the world that I would trust my pet with, it would MOST DEFINITELY be Naomi! She's not only loving and caring for her and her client's pets, she is also loving and caring for wildlife. Her empathy and understanding when it comes to animals is second to none, and she showed this many times when caring for my beautiful pitty named Murray. Naomi is on time in all aspects of Murray's days, from getting to our house right on time, to feeding time done perfectly and in a timely manner (while also following the very specific feeding directions we had left for her), to walking him and playing with him whenever needed (and done with REAL love). Murray looks forward to every day that Naomi comes, and he now anticipates his days with her, always excited to see and smell her! Finding Naomi has been a blessing for our pets, and I highly, highly recommend her for any kind of pet care jobs!”


Gina R.
“Gina is a loving dog parent of three puppies! She enjoys long walks and playtime with them. Gina is beyond a pet caregiver - she treats all animals with kindness, empathy and compassion. She is an advocate for dogs and all pets. Gina’s gentleness and knowledge of dogs and each individual breed allows her to provide the best care and loving environment possible.”


Lindsey M.
“Lindsey is very attention oriented when walking Harley. I live in a heavy traffic area which she has to walk over major roads to get to his favorite spots. His eyes light up when he see her coming. I have never come home to an accident or have ever had an issues with Harley after his time with her. If she notices something she will leave a note letting me know to keep an eye on it.”
