“Ryan was so kind and attentive to Poppy!! I had issues with my travel and ended up being away longer than I was supposed to and he cooked food for her!”


“I reached out on very short notice but she was able to watch MJ. She sent pics and kept me updated the whole time. Very grateful for her! Thank you!! MJ will definitely be a returning client”

“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”

“Symone was awesome watching our 4 month old English bulldog. It was his first time away from us and she was great updating us with pictures included. He had his accidents but Symone handled everything with a positive attitude. Our pup really enjoyed his stay with her and we will definitely use her again. Thanks so much!!!”

“My dog absolutely loves going to Ryan & Jefra ‘s! The moment we pull up, his tail starts wagging like crazy because he knows he’s about to have the best time. They treat him like part of their family — he gets tons of love, attention, and playtime. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such caring hands. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter! Highly recommend!”

“Ethel is incredibly kind and handled our very large and high energy dog with ease. She provided consistent updates accompanied by photos and videos of our dog playing and having the time of his life. Our dog got so much exercise with Ethel and her golden, and was dropped off happy and exhausted. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“Our dog had a short stay with Marina, just a few days. He looked really happy from the pictures and seemed to be well taken care of. Communications were efficient without any issues. Overall, excellent experience.”

“Monique did a wonderful job checking in on and feeding our cat for a long weekend while we were away. It was our first time leaving him so we were a bit nervous, and Monique really came through for us (at the last minute as well!). She is warm and communicative, and most importantly our cat seems to love her.”

“Emily was wonderful! Very communicative, reliable, and took great care of my cat Mookie. She followed all care instructions and gave my kitty lots of love!”

“Victoria did an excellent job taking care of my cats. She is immensely professional, responsible, and reliable. Each day she provided thorough updates. When I returned it was clear that my cats had had great care. I already have her booked for another upcoming trip. I highly recommend her as a sitter!”

“Rachel was great! She took great care of my cats while I was away. Her photos and feedback helped me feel confident they were thriving in her care.”

“Ryan was wonderful. He was very responsive, always prompt, and very caring. Sunny and Penny really appreciated the love and playtime Ryan provided them. Would absolutely use him again cat sitting!”


“Brittney was super communicative, attentive, and perfectly carried out everything asked of her! She was able to come by for a house visit on short notice as well which was appreciated. Hugo enjoyed her visit and looks forward to the next one!”


“Ambroja did a great job looking after our cat Miko! She was super professional, and gave Miko enough time to warm up to her. She was super patient, and also provided regular updates throughout the days we were gone. We will definitely want Ambroja to look after Miko again 😊”

“Kristina was wonderful! I was going out of town for the weekend and short one sitter on Friday afternoon with my train leaving in three hours, so I was scrambling to find someone on very short notice. She responded right away, took excellent care of Valentine, and sent tons of pictures (and he clearly loved her!)”

“I really can’t say enough good things about Meredith. She took such great care of our cat and was flexible and communicative throughout our time away. One of the best cat sitter experiences we’ve had!”

“Alice and Ethan are a lovely couple, and they took wonderful care of my very social cat Moka. I booked sessions for an hour, which is uncommon for cat care. But my cat is not food motivated, and enjoys company—but she’s still a judgy cat. They made Moka feel immediately comfortable, and by day 2 or 3 she had become a lap cat. They arrived on time for every session, were communicative and transparent, also very pleasant, and kind. Thanks to Alice and Ethan, this was the first time that I have returned from a trip to find Moka in the same happy mood I left her in. Typically she will show me in her own way that I never should have left (if you know, you know). She was a very content cat. I will most certainly reach out again!”

“This was my second time using rover, and my first time booking with Nia. She really did an excellent job looking after my cat. She checked in exactly when she said she would, followed every instruction, messaged proactively anytime she had questions, took pictures, and gave my cat its prescription. I will definitely try to book with her again next time I go out of town.”

“Dennis is a true professional. He’s taken care of my kittens twice now and always leaves a detailed message, takes care of the apartment and leaves the place spotless. I will be booking him again!”

“Again, 10/10 experience with Steven! He is so attentive and always provides detailed updates for me daily. I really appreciate it while im away from my baby.”

“Adolfo was great with my cats! He stayed at my place and I felt very comfortable having him cat-sit there. He was great at staying in touch and giving me updates. I would definitely hire him again.”

“Laura has been amazing! Her communication was great and she took great care of our pup Nenya. We could tell that Nenya loves her when we picked her up. She had a super calm and nice approach with her which is great because she is a little bit more on the shy and anxious side. Will definitely book Laura again :)”

“Crismar was great with my puppy Luna. Luna was not feeling her best and Crismar provided updates/ pictures for me throughout the day. When Luna was feeling better, she kept her active and moving throughout the day. Definitely will be returning in the future.”

“Carly took such great care of Mango! She made sure she got multiple walks in and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated. It was my first time leaving Mango, so I was a little nervous, but Carly made the whole experience so easy and reassuring. Mango clearly felt super comfortable, she had such a good time she didn’t even miss me 😭 You can tell Carly genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’d absolutely trust her with Mango again and highly recommend her 💛”

“Sonya was great with Ruby and Ruby loved playing with her and her dog Wallace. Sonya sent great pics and videos and was communicative and flexible about meeting place and times. We will be booking with her again soon!”

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs (including one I had of my own), I treat every pet like family because they deserve nothing less. I’m not just a sitter; I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs to provide personalized care and comfort. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm presence, and genuine love for animals. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, medication support, or just companionship, I create a safe, stress-free environment that keeps both pets and owners at ease. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around the pets I care for, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday feedings, or evening playtime, I plan my day to match their needs and routines. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space where animals feel welcome and secure, keeping their routines as familiar as possible. When staying in a client’s home, I treat their space with the utmost respect while following all care instructions closely from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles. I maintain open communication throughout each stay, so pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
“Euitae saved me by still accepting Pluto even though Pluto had spent the night struggling with diarrhea without even blinking! and he took great care of him all day: Thanks again ++”

“Basil seemed to have the time of his life with Wei Han & her pup! Loved seeing photo updates throughout the day, would definitely love to rebook in the future :)”

“Brandon was very kind to our pup, Billie. He was accommodating to having a meet and greet ahead of the daycare session and sent photos during the day to show us our pup was having a fun time. Brandon is also very responsive to texts. We'd be happy to use his services again.”

“Tracy took great care of my dog, Melo, and made her feel at home right away. She also was mindful to check about any sensitivities and gave Melo medication on time, and sent so many photos throughout the day! I would highly recommend Tracy!”

“Lee is an awesome sitter who we have used a couple times now. Our dog is super nervous and the first time our dog spent most of the day visibly nervous. But Lee was not deterred and very patient, gave our dog space and tried multiple approaches to get in her good graces. The second visit our dog warmed up to Lee and was taking pets and giving her kisses by the end of the day. Lee is incredibly communicative and gifted with dogs, we are very grateful for her patience and sticking with it. We look forward to using her (and her family) again.”

“We had such a great experience with Alyssa! Interactions were very positive including meeting up beforehand, great communication throughout the stay with photos and updates, and just a really nice person who makes you feel comfortable leaving your pup with. Thanks Alyssa!”

“Our dog Remy had a wonderful time with Diana! She is professional, attentive, and sent adorable pics throughout the day. Communication was fast and easy. I highly recommend Diana to care for your pup.”

“Urvi was wonderful - she was very responsive when we needed a sitter last minute, and she even picked our pup up from our apartment. She sent videos and pictures, and our pup had a great day with her! Would definitely book again next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Fala's stay with Debora was so wonderful, I just booked her again for another two days next week! On very short notice, I needed to find care for Fala because workers needed to be in my apartment while no one from our family could be home (and keep Fala's anxieties down). Debora was available for a quick meet-and-greet and then a three-day daycare stay. She sent photos and videos throughout each day and was thoughtful about Fala's adjustment to her apartment and new walking routine. I felt that she really cared for Fala and found her as adorable and delightful as I do!”

About: Grown up with all different kinds of dogs in my life, they were always family and friends who I loved and trusted to be with. So whenever I take care my friends and family’s dog, I care them just like my family and friends, and give them the best as I can. I am a full time employee but works from home- so I can take care your dog easily, and walking during the daytime. Plenty of time to spend for your friend. Also since I am a runner, I also can offer running with the dog in the morning as well! I am living in a apartment building with a enough space for your dog, and close to 2 parks (Central Park and Riverside Park with a huge dog park). So they can go to two lovely parks for walking.
“Anna was absolutely amazing! Her attention to detail and constant updates gave me the security needed while away from JB. John Buddy is extremely affectionate and clingy. I appreciate her and I will definitely be booking her again!”

“My pup absolutely adores Brittany! She’s super reliable and responsive and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for love and attention for their pups! Can’t say enough of about how awesome Brittany is. Thank you!”

“I have been working with Brandon for the past couple of weeks while I have been fostering a puppy, Zen. I cannot say enough good things about him! First off he is great with Zen. He treats Zen as if he’s his own. Brandon has helped build Zen’s leash skills. He very patient with him and encouraging. He sends me great notes about the walks and Zen’s overall behavior. I look forward to working with Brandon with other foster pups or my own. Yours is in good hands when with Brandon. I can’t recommend him enough.”

“Rachel is super patient and great with our dog Coco who can take a minute to warm up to new people. She provides updates and pictures for every walk and is very attentive.”


About: I am an experienced caregiver of dogs and cats! I'm comfortable working with animals of any size, age, and temperament, and I'm eager to work with you and learn more about your animal's needs and care. When I'm not spending time with my own cat (or yours!) you can find me teaching 4th grade, running, baking, or reading. I work full-time as an elementary school teacher, so I'm available to care for your furry friends in the late afternoons, evenings, and weekends. As a pet-owner myself, I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the people entering your home! I prioritize cleanliness and safety, and I'm happy to learn more about your needs and expectations for your animal's caregivers.
About: I've always had a love for pets, and I've had experience taking care of dogs specifically from a very young age. I've cared for neighbors' and family pets of of all ages and sizes with varied health conditions - trips to the vet, walking, feeding, bathing, and of course, playing with them! I am particularly fond of my family's two pups, Chanel and Scarlet, and would love to take care of yours while I am away from mine. :) I am free to be on pet duty primarily in the evenings, but am intermittently free during the day depending on my work schedule, which can sometimes be sporadic. I should be available Sunday through Saturday. I aim to establish a safe and trusting relationship between me and pets, allowing us both to cultivate a playful but responsible environment for each other. I will follow any and all specified house rules and be sure to enforce said rules when it comes to the pets' behavior in the home.

About: Hi, I'm Erlis! I've been passionate about animals my entire life, starting with the Yorkie I grew up with. I walked him, groomed him, and basically spent every free moment with him. That early bond turned into 6+ years of hands-on pet care experience. What sets me apart is my reliability and the genuine attention I give every pet. My best friend owns a Pitbull I regularly look after, so I'm comfortable with larger, stronger breeds too. And it's not just dogs. I'm a cat lover as well! My partner has two cats that I help care for daily, so feline friends are in great hands with me. I tailor my approach to each individual pet since no two animals are alike, and I take punctuality and communication seriously so you always know your pet is well cared for. Can't wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I work remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I typically head out for runs and walks in the morning and at lunch, so your dog will always have an active and energetic companion to get moving with. After 5pm I am completely free, making evenings a great time for longer visits, play sessions, or anything your pet needs. You won't have to worry about your furry friend being left alone or rushed. My schedule is built around flexibility and I am always close by. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my approach is the same: attentive, consistent, and tailored to your pet's routine and comfort level. In my home, pets are treated as part of the family. I have plenty of time to play, feed, and just hang out with them throughout the day. My flexible remote schedule means I am always close by, attentive, and alert to whatever they need. In your home, I follow your pet's existing routine as closely as possible. I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I keep feeding times, walk schedules, and any other habits consistent with what they are used to. I keep you updated with regular check ins so you always know how your furry friend is doing.
“Lamby had a great time on his walk! It was raining but Nicholas still gave him an awesome walk and Lamby has been passed out for the last hour! Thank you Nicholas!”

About: I have volunteer experience at a dog shelter, and understand how to work with rescue dogs. I grew up with dogs from the age of 4. I helped train my second dog, whom we adopted as a puppy, and have cared for and walked all four of my family dogs. I will be taking classes this summer, so between class sessions, studying, and writing papers, I would love to walk or check in on your dog! I understand that dogs are part of the family! This philosophy carries over into my pet care. I am very attuned to dogs' needs and desires, and will care for your pups accordingly.
“Nyle is fantastic! So responsible and good with Louie and with communicating with me about Louie! I've had her twice before and she keeps my little 3 Lh yorkie who im always so worried about safe and happy! So glad my family has Nyle! Thank you!! Highly reccomended!”

“Ryan did a great job looking after my dog Kira. He was timely with her walks, always ensured she had food and water, and if he ever had a question was not afraid to ask. She seemed in great spirits when I got home. Happy with his work.”

“It has been a long time since I've had to board my pets with someone I didn't know. It is hard enough to leave our fur babies in the care of a friend or family member, but it is an more nerve-wracking experience to place them into the care of a stranger. Michael assuaged those fears before we even met him! He asked all the right questions about our boy's needs from the get-go (he's a large senior dog with arthritis) and gave me frequent updates and pictures of how he was doing. He walked our boy judiciously and gave him all of his food and medications just as we would. He was wonderful. It was such a relief knowing that our boy was in such capable, caring hands. We're in town for work but are lucky enough to have weekends off. We picked our boy up today and he looked so happy and healthy. Michael did such a great job that we're going to utilize his services again next week. I just can't say enough good things about him.”

“Roman was incredible. He sent us daily pictures and videos and was very communicative. He took such great care of Luna for 2 weeks, taking her for long walks in the park. We will absolutely work with him again.”

“Ivette dogsat recently for me in her home and Ivette and her husband took great care of my fur baby Lambo. Their dog Blas was also so sweet and welcoming to Lambo and they had a great time together. Ivette provided wonderful updates and pics during Lambo's stay. As soon as I met Ivette i felt so comfortable leaving Lambo with her. I would highly recommend Ivette and will definitelt utilize her services again in the future.”
