“Vanessa was great! She came for a last minute meet and greet and took good care of our pup.”

About: Hi! I would love to watch your pet and give them the best time of their life! We can take walks, run in the yard, and play anything from the toy bucket I work part time in the evenings, so message me about availability. If your pet is ok being alone for up to 6 hours, then it won't be an issue 😊 I have a cat that gets along very well with dogs My apartment has 2 rooms so I can keep your pet separate from my kitty if they have a hard time being together I also have a fenced in backyard, plus I live in a nice area with plenty of walking and leaves to play in and trees to mark 😊

“Candice is terrific! We can tell she loves dogs, is very experienced, careful and trustworthy. And our 8 month old pup loves her. Our dog is high energy yet is always tired out after walks with Candice, which is exactly what we need! I would highly recommend Canice to anyone looking for topnotch pet care.”


“Maria is a great dog walker. My dog is always excited to see her and the two of them quickly established a routine. Maria is also easy to communicate with.”


“Relieved I found someone who is prompt with responding, their communication is on point, and my dog loves her. Thank you Hayley for being there for Chops, it does a lot for me knowing he’s spending time with you when I’m away”


About: I grew up having dogs! My family had the sweetest golden retriever growing up. She loved going for walks and loved meeting new people. We took care of her through an injury and arthritis which made walking challenging. My family got another dog who is a giant mix rescue with a very different temperament. She is terrified of new people and hates the mailman but I have worked with her to interact with others and work through some of her fears. I have also spent a lot of time with friends and family dogs and have dog sat a few times, too. I am looking for summer care options as I will have free time since I am a full-time teacher. I would be able to help out during the day. I am a reliable person who takes care of people's property. I will follow all instructions left by owners and do everything I can for their fur babies. I can walk, feed, and clean up after pets.

“Wonderful! Patient and understanding”


“Always reliable and able to handle our 65 lb dog who likes to pull when excited. We definitely have peace of mind knowing Hank is in capable hands.”


“Janeiro is great! Very accommodating and responsive. She's also very understanding of my pup!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the age 5 when I was gifted my first pup. I love my dogs as if they were my children. I have 10yr old 80lb boxer mix and a 9mo poodle. I’m currently in school to be a certified life coach. My husband owns a cleaning business and I help him from time to time. I would like to fill in my days getting outside and caring for your fur babies. I can care for your dog at home as instructed. I also have a medium poodle that is fully vaccinated and in great health that I can bring along to play with your pup.

About: My Husband and I cared for dogs of all breeds and personalities for over 5 years, from energetic Jack Russells to gentle Siberian Huskies and playful Golden Doodles. My experience spans everything from puppy training to senior dog care, and I specialize in creating a calm, fun, and safe environment—especially in my fully fenced backyard, where dogs love to run and play. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me time and again to love their pets like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just some belly rubs, I’m here to make tails wag and pet parents feel at ease. We have open availability and can provide care that fits your schedule—whether it’s daytime walks, overnight stays, or weekend boarding. I work from home part-time, so your dog will never be left alone for long. They’ll get plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. Your dog will feel right at home in my secure, fenced yard with plenty of room to play. I have two well-behaved dogs who are great with guests, and I’m happy to crate your pup if needed. I create a calm, structured environment that adapts to your dog’s personality—whether they’re high-energy or a little shy.

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! About this sitter: Fun loving animal enthusiast Why I love dog sitting I have always loved all animals. Ever since I was little I had everything from fish to gerbils to a bearded dragon. Then I was finally able to get a pup...since then I got one more and my parents even jumped on the Boston terrier bandwagon!

From the first day we met, Lindsey's warmth and professionalism made me feel completely at ease, knowing that my furry family members were in the safest and most caring hands. Lindsey possesses a rare combination of patience, intuition, and energy that seems to resonate well with every animal she encounters. She doesn't just 'walk' or 'sit' with pets; she connects with them, understands their needs, and ensures they feel loved and secure in her presence. Her attention to detail is exemplary, always going above and beyond to cater to the specific dietary, exercise, and emotional needs of each pet. What truly sets Lindsey apart is her ability to communicate effectively with pet owners, providing thoughtful updates and adorable photos, which has been a source of comfort and joy for me. Her flexibility and willingness to accommodate last-minute requests have been invaluable, demonstrating her commitment to the well-being of the pets in her care and the peace of mind of their owners. Lindsey's passion for animals is evident in the way she speaks about her experiences and her eagerness to learn and grow in her profession. Her knowledge of pet health, behavior, and safety precautions is impressive, providing an educational aspect to her service that I have greatly appreciated. In summary, Lindsey is not just a dog walker or pet sitter; she is a cherished member of our family. Her dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals have made her an indispensable part of our lives. I cannot recommend her services highly enough to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets as if they were her own. Thank you, Lindsey, for everything you do - you are truly one of a kind!”

“Naomi is the most caring and empathetic person I know. She truly cares about people and animals. She is the person who will stop her car, get out, stop traffic and help geese and ducks cross the roads safely. She is the one who will see an injured bird or animal and bring it to a wildlife veterinary facility. her own pets adore her. She cares for them with love and affection and devotion. I would never hesitate to have her watch over my pets.”
