About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life—I’ve cared for all kinds of pets and love every tail wag and sloppy kiss. I’ve walked and watched dogs for friends for years, and now I’m here to give your pup the same love, attention, and fun. Rain or shine, cold or hot—I’m always ready with a leash, treats, and a smile. You can count on me to show up on time, stay prepared, and make your dog’s day I’m currently a student enrolled in an online master’s program, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available to work mornings through evenings, Monday through Friday and Sundays. Saturdays tend to be a bit busier for me, but with advance notice, I’m happy to accommodate requests on that day as well. Your dog’s safety is my top priority on every walk. I always use secure leashes and harnesses,(please let me know if you do not have one in advance, I can provide it), stay alert to our surroundings, and avoid unsafe or overly crowded areas. I never walk dogs off-leash and always follow any instructions you provide. You can trust that your pup will be safe, loved, and well-cared for every step of the way.

“Very happy with Kaitlyn. Thank you so much! Our cats were perfectly cared for and house was all secure and just how we left it. Every day we got thorough updates and photos. We liked that Kaitlyn was able to give us a time frame that she would be there everyday so we weren't wondering for an entire day when our cats would get taken care of. Will use Kaitlyn everytime. Its hard to find someone local, trustworthy, experienced and willing to be flexible. So happy we found Kaitlyn. Great, quick communication too!!!!!”

“Mond is a phenomenal sitter! My husband and I were nervous about leaving our high maintenance cat for 2 weeks and thanks to Mond we were truly able to relax! Mond was punctual and went above and beyond, I would recommend him again and again. He kept our cat and apartment in such fantastic shape upon our return!”

About: Having 2 dogs of my own, I know how much clients/dogs owners care for their babies. They need to be fed, exercised, trained and taken care of as if they were little kids. That's what I do with my own 2 dogs and that's what I would do with any other dog under my care. My goal is to create a trusting and safe environment for the dog and return him or her to their owner as happy as ever.

“Eugene was great. Responded really quick and showed up on time to help feed my puppy. He was very careful, very friendly and very respectful to everything in my house. He even stayed a little bit to play with my puppy to keep her company! I would definitely recommend!”

“I couldn't be happier with how things turned out with Shang. From the very beginning, he was wonderful with communication and very understanding about my hectic schedule (and my embarrassingly messy apartment). Even though I wasn't able to show him around before I left, he still followed all the instructions I left for him, and had a few really great suggestions of his own! My cat is very shy, so he didn't come out, but when I got home, he seemed in the best spirits of any trip I've taken, and I know it was because he was taken such good care of. It was a stressful few weeks, but knowing that I had someone like Shang to take care of my cat while I was away was a huge relief! I'd happily have him back any time!”

I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with no other animals, so your pet will get my full attention in a calm and quiet environment. I make sure all spaces are safe, secure, and free from hazards. Whether it's playtime, feeding, or downtime, I create a relaxed and loving space where your pet can feel completely at ease.

“Sarah took care of our cats very well while we were in vacation. One of our cat has eye infection and she also helped us to give her eye drops (it wasn’t easy as our cat doesn’t like it). There were some more other issues and Sarah also helped us to solved them perfectly. Love to see Sarah again next time.”

“John did a great job feeding and cleaning up after my 4 cats. He came at the times expected. John was courteous and attentive and communicated with photos and texts while we were away. I will definitely use John again. I felt comfortable trusting my home and cats to him. Thanks!!”

About: My name is Jonathan and I am currently 27 years old, working full-time as a dog sitter, and living in Great Neck, NY. A former software engineer that's pursuing UX/UI design and loves animals! I currently have a 5 year old golden retriever! I have always loved dogs as I grew up with a Maltese when I was in kindergarten before getting my golden. I'm also very good at training through positive reinforcement and handling medium to large breeds. I also have experience taking care of multiple dogs at the same time. Lastly, I can easily tell when dogs are in trouble or need to use the bathroom,etc. My schedule is extremely flexible so I can accommodate most requests! I wake up at 9am everyday to let my dog out for a morning potty break. We then go for a walk at noon, one at 6pm, and one more at 10pm before bed. I have a fenced in yard that is locked at all times. I will be present in the backyard anytime the dogs are there and will keep an eye on them while they play. I will be home 24/7 while your dog is with me, and will be monitored at all times.

“Judy has helped me countless times with Tiger. She is thoughtful and caring, and took great care of Tiger. This time I’m gone longer so I asked Judy if she could take Tiger out for a walk. She has no problem with it and took pictures when they were out. Tiger is happy and I’m thankful for Judy’s great work!”

About: One day in 3rd grade, I had come home from school to the surprise of a life time: my parents had adopted two of the sweetest puppies - a Siberian Husky and a Yellow Lab. It was the best day of my life! From then on, Skye and Sandy, respectively, were my absolute best friends. I had the best childhood with them, and I learned a lot about responsibility from them. I took them on daily walks and played with them in the backyard. When they were sick, I had the magic touch (a slice of cheese to hide the pills in)! Sandy and Skye have both since passed, and I haven’t been able to have another pup of my own yet. I have, however, been a regular dog sitter for my loved ones. I LOVE the time I get to spend with these dogs, and I would love to give my time and attention to your pup as well! The first sight I see in the morning is my cat standing over my face waiting for breakfast. I feed both of my babies before heading to work, whether to the office or working from home. If I’m working from home, I take time to get some activity in with my cats, using lasers and toys to get them moving and awake. If I’m in the office, I’ll do this when I get home from work. After this I’ll spend some cuddle time with them and maybe put some Cat TV on YouTube for them. Then it’s time for dinner included with supplements, like salmon oil. I end the night cuddling in bed with the cats and hoping that tonight there are no 3AM zoomies! When I dog sit for my family’s dog, Otis. I walk in the door and immediately am greeted with multiple kisses and lots of love. I obviously embrace the love and okay with Otis for a little bit, making sure to throw him his favorite red ball. Then, I might sneak him a little treat for a great playtime. When I feed him I make sure to carefully measure his food according to his owner’s instructions, as well as make sure he has a full bowl of water after a tiring playtime. When it’s time for his walk, we make sure the weather outside is suitable for him to be out there, and go on our way! Otis loves to greet the neighbor’s and their dogs as we go. I ensure that he is going in the appropriate places and always thoroughly clean up after him. When we get home, he loves to snuggle on the couch while I watch New Girl, or whatever reality show I’m currently binging! I make sure to be attentive to all of his needs and make him as comfortable as possible!
