“Michelle and her family were lovely. She was warm and an obvious animal lover. Her home was clean and pet friendly as well as a great back yard, fenced in and very clean as well. She gave is many pictures of Sophie playing, sleeping and having fun with Michelle's kids. She was quick to respond to any inquires we had regarding Sophie and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our baby with her. I would definitely reccomend her to friends and family and will use her again when we need a sitter! ”

“Diana was amazing with my pup, Louis! He had an absolute blast — especially getting to run around outside and play with the other dogs and kids, which is such a treat for him since he doesn’t get that kind of freedom in Manhattan. I could tell he was well cared for and totally in his element. Communication was great, with tons of photos daily, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a loving, fun environment. I’d strongly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

I highly recommend Wenxu to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and caring with their pets. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my little ones! ❤️”

Whether your furry friend is a playful pup needing playbite training and endless games of fetch, or a cherished senior who thrives on gentle care, medication reminders, and comforting companionship, I really try to provide a safe, loving, and happy environment. My experience includes puppy socialization and specialized senior dog care, ensuring every dog in my charge receives the individual attention and expert care they deserve, making their time with me feel just like your home. At the moment now, I am unemployed so that gives me more then enough time (even every day) to help take care of your pup when you need it! With every pet is different, I like to converse with the owner about the character of the dog and habits as well as any other important health information that I should keep in mind before sitting, and if it is in your home, I’m very well mannered and have respect for not just the home but pups safety too
“This was the first time leaving Sadie with a sitter so naturally was very nervous. Sadie is a rescue dog with separation anxiety. Jennifer and her family were wonderful. Sadie loves the outdoors and was able to freely roam around the large fenced in backyard. She also was very comfortable in the home which is very pet friendly. I would definitely recommend and bring Sadie there again.”

About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. I’ve had cats of my own and have cared for many others over the years for friends, family, and clients.

I’m experienced with feeding routines, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering oral medications when needed, and giving plenty of affection on their terms. Whether your cat is outgoing or shy, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your feline family member is in good hands.

“I am very happy to write a 5☆review for Dan and Denise. I first met them in July 2017.I had inquired about their services for my previous dog and loved what I saw. Unfortunately, my Dog suddenly passed away and I did not use them . I did however save their contact information and now 9 months later , I have a new puppy. As soon as I needed daycare I called them up. Bruno spent a full day with them in their house and parklike backyard. He had a great stay and will be coming back on a regular basis. I am very happy with the care he received !”

“Jillian took a last minute request for us and was extremely nice. She was kind, provided updates when requested, and also was extremely flexible with our time. But a note, the bio does say non-smoking household and our dog did come home smelling like cigarette smoke, but other than that the experience was great.”

About: I grew up in a house full of pets and have volunteered at various pet rescues. Now, 51 years later, through every chapter of my life, milestones, joys, and losses, there has always been a pet by my side. I can’t imagine a home without the sound of paws, the comfort of companionship, or the simple, grounding presence of an animal. I work full time from home and am happy to be flexible to any schedule. This works particularly well for pets that are used to a routine. My pets include a Labrador Retriever named "Jax" who is 6 years old. Jax likes to run about in our fenced yard. I also have 3 cats named "Beau", "Shadow" and "Oliver" who remain indoor. All of my babies are rescues.

“This August we sought a warm and private alternative to the larger dog camps because our dog sitter (my daughter) was returning to college. Eliana and her entire family were warm & welcome. They allowed us to stop by for a meet & greet and even taught my dog (12 yr old) how to use a doggie door. Guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. Eliana is amazing! She sent us pictures throughout the day during every visit & told me about the emotional state of my dog (sad because she misses my daughter). That meant the world to me. God bless Eliana & family. Best decision I made all summer!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently own four dogs: two adult Belgian Malinois, a German Shepherd puppy, and a senior Shih Tzu mix. I have crate trained and potty trained multiple puppies and am familiar with the time, patience, and consistency required for successful training. Through caring for both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs, I have experience managing different exercise needs, routines, temperaments, and levels of care. I am committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every dog in my care. I am home most of the time and provide full-time care for the dogs in my home. Because I am available throughout the day, dogs receive regular supervision. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely go outside for potty breaks and exercise. I am comfortable reinforcing crate training when needed and believe crates are a valuable tool for safety and routine. My own dogs are crate trained and are crated when they cannot be directly supervised to ensure their safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. I provide a structured, safe, and supervised environment while making sure each dog receives plenty of attention, care, and opportunities to play and relax.
“Karishma and her family made Rhodey feel right at home. He was immediately comfortable and looked so relaxed when we got back. Karishma is a great communicator and kept us at ease during his stay.”

About: I have been very passionate about animals and the environment since I was 3 years old! I grew up around so many animals and it encouraged me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. At a very young age I was introduced the opportunity to petsit for dogs and cats/kittens in my family. Later around 8 years ago I was able to start working in a more professional manner and cared for not only cats, kittens, and dogs but birds, different reptiles, and some aquatic pets! All these experiences are amazing and they just motivate my love and passion for animals. I have worked with pets of all ages as well as many with special diets and medications. Aside from my experience, I am a very energetic person! I love to go on hikes, runs, bikes, you name it! You can rest assured that your fur babies will get all the love, care, and enjoyment with me! I am an undergraduate student and I am currently a vet technician/assistant practicing with a couple clinica , which allows me plenty of time to care for your lovely fur babies! My availability is very flexible right now. I do have a large fenced yard! I have 1 energetic doggie named Milo and 2 cats named Blue and Maya Papaya. Milo does have social anxiety, so I will keep separate in order for both parties to feel comfortable. And for my cats they are very soft, kind, and friendly with everyone including dogs. You can rest assured that your baby is in great hands, as my top priority is their trust, comfort, and health!

About: Hi my name is Jen. I am a huge animal lover. I’ve been a dog and cat owner most of my life. Ive also being the proud owner of ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits and fish. I currently have 2 amazing kitties (2 and 3 yr old) my beloved yorkie passed away last year at the age of 15 from renal failure, she fought for over 2 yrs, my brave little girl. I’ve cared for dogs from 5lbs to 140lbs. I have a lot of patience with animals and treat them as my own. Children and pets are the precious family members who need TLC, which is why I spent most of my adult life in a career caring for both. It is so hard to trust someone to care for your pets while you are away, but be rest assured that you will feel comfortable and at ease with me. Your pet will be cared for as if they are my own. Please reach out if you ever need help w caring for your fur babies 💕 I am currently doing pet care daily, as this is my livelihood. I have some flexibility so pls reach out if you need me to care for your fur baby. I have a lot of experience and great references. Whatever u need pls know your pet is in safe hands. I’m extra cautious when it comes to caring for your fur baby. I make sure all gates are shut before letting them outside. I will let them out to make sure they do their business and play w them as well. If u need me to walk them I will leash them securely and make sure to not have any other dogs come too close unless told otherwise. Leaving your home, I am extremely careful making sure your pets do not slip out the door.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! When I was 10 I had a puppy and have volunteered at animal shelters throughout high school. I can assure you I will take great care of your animals with all the love in my heart. I’m currently working part time, so I have a lot of time this summer! Typically, I work Tuesdays from 11am-4pm and the evening/night of weekends. My availability varies depending on my weekly schedule. I’m definitely a fan of walks and playtime! I’ll make sure the clients house is clean before they return and that their pet has a blast!
About: Dogs, cats and helping people all make me happy. I’ve lived with at least one dog since I was 4 years old after adopting our first family dog from the north shore animal league. I’ve had 3 years of fostering experience for the queens ASPCA where my aunt volunteered. I rehabbed overweight dogs and sick dogs into shape and health to be adopted to their forever homes. We had 2 foster failures our bond was so strong we had to keep. I currently have 3 dogs and one cat all rescues. I always form an immediate bond with any pet I meet and promise to take care of your pet like they are my own. I understand the hesitation in trusting others with your pets and proudly guarantee the best care possible. I am gladly available weekdays both mornings and afternoons as well as anytime needed on the weekends and/or holidays. I do work a full time job second shift 3pm -11pm Monday through Friday excluding holidays. I work in Hicksville for the school district doing security. I’ve found and saved several lost dogs and wild animals throughout the neighborhood over the past 9 plus years. Easily my favorite part of the job. I love to serve the community by helping others. I care as much about stray or random animals as I do my own pets. Seeing a dog or cat in public is easily the highlight of my day. I like to get down and meet dogs at their level to gain their trust and show I am not s threat. I am a good listener and will follow all orders given to take care of someone’s pet and do whatever is best for any animal in my care.
About: I grew up in a house full of pets and have volunteered at various pet rescues. Now, 51 years later, through every chapter of my life, milestones, joys, and losses, there has always been a pet by my side. I can’t imagine a home without the sound of paws, the comfort of companionship, or the simple, grounding presence of an animal. I work full time from home and am happy to be flexible to any schedule. This works particularly well for pets that are used to a routine. My pets include a Labrador Retriever named "Jax" who is 6 years old. Jax likes to run about in our fenced yard. I also have 3 cats named "Beau", "Shadow" and "Oliver" who remain indoor. All of my babies are rescues.
About: I am available to sit both cats and dogs. I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies when you are out of town. Cats and dogs have their routines that help to keep them feeling safe and secure. While you are unable to care for your pet for whatever reason, I can visit them and provide excellent care for them. This will help to give you piece of mind knowing that they are well cared for, and not too lonely while your not home. I have 2 cats of my own, and a dog. I have loved and cared for animals my entire life, and will treat yours like my very own. I used to volunteer and the North Shore Animal League taking shelter dogs for much needed walks. I enjoyed it just as much as they did!! I’m highly responsible and love to care for all animals.

“Michelle and her family were lovely. She was warm and an obvious animal lover. Her home was clean and pet friendly as well as a great back yard, fenced in and very clean as well. She gave is many pictures of Sophie playing, sleeping and having fun with Michelle's kids. She was quick to respond to any inquires we had regarding Sophie and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our baby with her. I would definitely reccomend her to friends and family and will use her again when we need a sitter! ”
“Rebooked Veronique and her husband because my anxious dog feels so at ease with them. They accepted the booking last min and we were able to enjoy a much needed date weekend in the city without worrying about our dog . Will definitely book again.”
“Diana was amazing with my pup, Louis! He had an absolute blast — especially getting to run around outside and play with the other dogs and kids, which is such a treat for him since he doesn’t get that kind of freedom in Manhattan. I could tell he was well cared for and totally in his element. Communication was great, with tons of photos daily, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a loving, fun environment. I’d strongly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: What I think truly sets me apart is my tailored approach to each dog's needs, ranging from feeding medicine, to early walks or even just lovey extra attention, I’m always here for it. I like combining enthusiastic play with disciplined training techniques. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup needing playbite training and endless games of fetch, or a cherished senior who thrives on gentle care, medication reminders, and comforting companionship, I really try to provide a safe, loving, and happy environment. My experience includes puppy socialization and specialized senior dog care, ensuring every dog in my charge receives the individual attention and expert care they deserve, making their time with me feel just like your home. At the moment now, I am unemployed so that gives me more then enough time (even every day) to help take care of your pup when you need it! With every pet is different, I like to converse with the owner about the character of the dog and habits as well as any other important health information that I should keep in mind before sitting, and if it is in your home, I’m very well mannered and have respect for not just the home but pups safety too
“This was the first time leaving Sadie with a sitter so naturally was very nervous. Sadie is a rescue dog with separation anxiety. Jennifer and her family were wonderful. Sadie loves the outdoors and was able to freely roam around the large fenced in backyard. She also was very comfortable in the home which is very pet friendly. I would definitely recommend and bring Sadie there again.”
About: I have had dogs since I was a baby. I have fostered dogs for NJ Boxer rescue. We lost our 90lb Pit Bull last year. I don’t want to commit to another dog yet. But I have the love to take in any puppy, middle age and of course the older babies. If they need a loving place that’s not a cold kennel, I will provide that. I work from home. Dogs can run around the kitchen and living room. When I take a break from work I like to bring them into the yard. There is plenty of space to run but sometimes the little ones like to sit on my lap and enjoy the sun. Dogs will always find a sunny spot or a shaded spot in our living room to take naps. There are plenty of toys to play with. We clean any toys after each visit in the washing machine.
“Cody was fantastic! He was able to accommodate a last-minute booking over the July 4th weekend, which was a huge help. Sunny is always happy staying with him, and it’s clear he feels comfortable and well cared for. I really appreciate Cody’s flexibility and reliability.”

“Pamela was great with her updates of our big pup during his stay with her! She sent pictures and updates throughout each day. We think he loved being with her and the other dogs and overall, he was cared for with love. Couldn’t ask for more! We will definitely be using Pamela’s services in the future. ?”
“Already after the meet and greet I felt beyond comfortable leaving my dog with Lisamarie. Her 2 dogs and my dog got along great, I’m pretty sure my pup hasn’t been bored one minute, since he “crashed” when we picked him up. Thanks again Lisamarie and when needed will definitely ask you again”
“This was our first time boarding Sammie outside of Petsmart. We are so happy that we chose Eliana. She took such good care of Sammie and kept me updated with a lot of pics. He looked happy and very comfortable with her family. I love that he wasn't confined to a tiny room like at Petsmart and was able to have lots of outdoor play at no extra charge. We will definitely be using Eliana the next time we need to board Sammie!”
“BEST VACAY EVER!!! This was Striker's second stay with Vanessa and her family!!! I get daily photos and updates throughout his stay with them. Truly a blessing to have you and your family taking care of our Golden Boy!!! We always know he's in good hands when we leave Striker with you!!! He'll be back! XOXO”

“Troy was great with Rocky. He knew exactly what to say and what to do to make me feel comfortable leaving my pup with him. He constantly sent photos of Rocky to let me know that he was having fun. The photos that he send were amazing as well. I will definitely use Troy to watch my dog Rocky again.”
“Laurie and her family took amazing care of our dogs, Blue and Sky, overnight. They treated them like part of the family and kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell our babies were happy, safe, and well loved. We highly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
