“Destiny is wonderful! She responded promptly to my request and was very accommodating and flexible around my time needs for drop-off and pick-up. She offered a FaceTime call before booking so I could feel confident and answer any questions I needed. My dog is a senior dog and can have separation anxiety, but I could tell she got along quickly with her. She was kind, courteous, and very friendly. I’ll definitely be continuing to book with Destiny!”

“Lori was an amazing cat sitter for our 2 kittens during winter. She visited them every day, and did everything we recommended, she fed them and cleaned litter boxes everyday as well as was on top of their water and feeder. She also played everyday with them with their favorites toys, they loved playing with the laser pointer with her. Kittens were happy all times. Lori did an amazing job inclusive visiting cats during the blizzard. We are happy with her and would recommend her.”
“Our cat was in heart failure in December , he has since recovered, but our lives have changed dramatically because we are so committed to his care. Finding a sitter who would care for him like their own was a challenge, in walks Ruth- she was as patient with me as she was with Logan, willing to visit for months on end to learn his changing medicine routine. We just passed a huge milestone of being able to travel again, even with it only being a couple of nights Ruth gave us that peace of mind.”
About: I’ve been a cat parent for 10+ years now and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in the Chelsea/Downtown area. I have extensive knowledge as a parent and hope to provide an enriching experience for them. 🐾
“Kristine was fantastic and took great care of Oliver for us! She was super responsive and sent great updates and pictures after each visit. Highly recommend, we will definitely book her services again!”
“Colleen is simply the best!! She took care of my cat for 5 days while I was out of state. She was very communicative and let me know each time when she arrived. She also provided a little note and photos each visit which I truly appreciate. I felt so relieved knowing my cat was happy and doing okay! I highly recommend Colleen and I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Jennifer did a great job with my two senior kitties who, while social, are not used to being taken care of by strangers. My shyer cat immediately took a liking to her, and I came home to two calm cats simply happy to see me -- no cat-grudges to be had. Jennifer was quick with communication, and reached out to let me know when my dry-food auto feeders were being wonky, even though I told her she didn't have to worry about the dry food. Overall, a great experience!”
“Elisa was a wonderful sitter for our two kitties. I greatly appreciated the extra effort she took to work with us when our schedule changed due to bad weather. And I know Jack enjoyed getting a little play time!”
“Ana did a great job taking care of our kitties, even though they are super shy and hid most of the time. She went above and beyond looking for them and making sure they were safe! Absolutely will ask for her help again in the future.”
“It was snowmageddon in Yonkers, while i was on holiday in 100 degree temperatures in Australia! Karen was a certain life rope for me and my kitties as we also dealt with toilet leak troubles on the floor beneath my unit. Karen was able to quickly pivot and help provide access to my apartment for our super. She was flexible and reliable through it all!”
“Alyssa and Michael were amazing when my diabetic cat Ziggy was not being a "team player" - they were super patient and helpful and really went the extra mile to make the situation work and helping to get Ziggy comfortable. Very reliable and trustworthy - thanks!”
“MaryAnn is the best! Our cat took to her right away and she does a wonderful job taking care of him. She sends thorough updates & we always come home to a happy cat. Thanks MaryAnn!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Pelham
“Jorge is friendly and Rosie warmed up to him right away. He took the dogs he was watching to the park! Easy communication and many photos. Will book with Jorge again.”
“My dog is an elderly dog with pretty bad anxiety, so I was relieved when Grace and Luis said they could handle him. He’s been there quite a few times now and they really seem to get along! Definitely recommend”
“Omar is AMAZING!! Walter felt at ease from the first moment they met. He walked right in as if he has known Omar all his life. He looked forward to seeing him every morning. Omar kept me informed throughout the day which I truly love and appreciate. Cannot say enough great things about Omar. 100% recommend!”
About: Ever since I can remember, I have been surrounded by animals. I grew up in a home that always had dogs, cats, and other pets, which helped me develop a deep love and respect for them. Throughout my life, I have cared for and trained dogs of all ages, from puppies to adults, and I have also worked with shelters and families who trusted me with their pets. Currently, I dedicate myself to pet care full-time, providing personalized attention, daily walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were in their own home. Currently, I do not have pets in my home, but every day I care for and walk a beautiful dog. It has become part of my daily routine to take her to the park, play with her, and spend quality time together. Seeing her happy truly makes me happy. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily life. I love making pets feel safe, comfortable, active, and loved. I am also very patient, attentive, and responsible when it comes to their routines, needs, and well-being. Caring for pets is already a big part of my daily life. I have experience caring for dogs regularly, and I enjoy creating a calm, loving, and safe environment for them. My flexible routine allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and affection they need throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel comfortable and secure by following their usual routines, respecting feeding schedules, providing regular walks and playtime, and paying close attention to their individual needs and behavior. In my client’s home, I treat both the pet and the space with care and respect, making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“This was our first time using a dog sitter outside of family or friends our dog was already familiar with. We are preparing her for a longer trip we will need to take. Juan was our first choice, and our dog seemed quite comfortable with the experience. It was great that his wife and son were there to greet us and our dog. We think the "family" environment is positive for helping our dog feel at ease. The pictures Juan sent very few hours were quite thoughtful.”
“Highly recommend Dean! His communication style is professional & caring. He eased all my anxiety as it was difficult leaving my new puppy in someone’s care. He gives updates, is prompt, and even helped my pup socialize with trusted dogs. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter! I’ll be booking again.”
“Courtney is amazing! She was willing to care for our 10 week old puppy while we were at work. Courtney came to meet Zeus prior to our booking and they both hit it off, he absolutely loved his stay with her. She was very responsive and made sure to keep us updated with lots of pictures. She really made us feel at ease that he was with her.”
“Maggie had the best time at daycare at Kiara’s. She and her family were so warm and welcoming, and it made me feel at ease dropping Maggie off with them. Thank you for loving my girl like your own.”
“Daisy did well with our kid. There was information provided about her plans for his stay. Her updates corresponded with what she told us. Our dog was happy. We know his temperament very well if he has a good experience vs a not so good one. He was content. Updates on our pup is of huge importance. Transparency is equally important and can serve as a deal breaker when leaving our dog with anyone. Daisy followed through with what she communicated. We received updates and text responses. Overall a good experience. Will consider her services again for our baby.”
About: I have had pets of my own for most of my life. I’ve been caring for my pets since they were puppies to now elders. Having experience with both cats and dogs I have grown to know how to love and care for them properly. I have experience in basic care like walking and feeding and giving them extra love and care! I am currently available in the afternoon to give your pet the love and cuddles they deserve! Hours can range from 12pm or later, hours are flexible! I have a fenced in yard where pets can play in. I also have the tools for walking including a portable water bottle for pets if needed.
“Words cannot describe how my family, including our pup, felt instantly comfortable with this wonderful family, and they totally lived up to our expectations! They were flexible with timing and very good at communicating. Most importantly they were very nurturing and took excellent care of our darling girl ….will definitely be using them in the future!”
“Eleanor did a great job of looking after my 4 year old Frenchie girl. My pup enjoyed a lovely day of nourishment, exercise and gentle playtime in her care. When we met her for the first time she asked thoughtful, comprehensive questions about our little one’s health and preferences and when we picked her up, we received a full report card. 💕”
“Stephanie and Corey were so lovely. Kept me updated throughout the day and immediately greeted my pup with the love that reassured me I was leaving her in good hands. Will be seeing them again soon!”
“Tingli was great with our very shy Shih Tzu Benji. She picked up his vibe and was so gentle and caring. She took so many pics which was very comforting. It was very obvious she bonded with him and she has such a great approach to her care with dogs. Highly recommended, very good communication/professionalism!”
About: I’m patient, caring, and treat every pet like mine. Good with puppies and gentle with seniors. I always make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m home a lot, and I only have college once a week with the rest of my classes online, so I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, and check-ins for your pets ! I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I follow your routines, keep their space clean, and pay attention to what they need. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I give them a calm, trusted environment.
“Vivian was absolutely fantastic. This was the first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know and I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. Not only was my anxious dog comfortable the whole time, he enjoyed himself! He made friends with Vivian and her husband almost instantaneously and he also got the chance to become friends with a couple of other dogs along the way! I couldn’t recommend Vivian enough. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Alanis and Marco M. were absolutely amazing with Mila. From the very beginning, they were kind, attentive, and made her feel completely at home. They were also incredibly flexible with scheduling, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Mila was always genuinely happy to see them, and that alone gave me total peace of mind. I couldn’t be happier with the care they provided and would absolutely book with them again. Highly, highly recommend.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Pelham
“Caroline was so great with June! She was available to walk her on short notice and not to mention on the coldest day of the year! Caroline also provided plenty of updates and pictures. You can rest assured your pup is in good hands with Caroline!”
“Jorge is the best! He responded to my last minute inquiry almost immediatey and came through to save the day! Jorge took my dog Ocho on a new route in our neighborhood which was sweet. He came back super thirsty as well, indicating he had excellent excercise outside. Ocho loves him, and tried to leave with Jorge at drop off. Kind of broke my heart Ocho!! Haha. I will definitely continue to book Jorge! Gracias Jorge!!”
“We had such a great experience with Erin! She took such wonderful care of our dog, who can be difficult on a leash, while we were away for the weekend. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. She was communicative, responsible, and our dog clearly loved all the walks and attention! We would absolutely recommend Erin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker. Can’t wait to book again!”
“5 STAR ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience — she was so kind, patient, and flexible, and sent beautiful photos throughout the walk. My dog came back super happy, and everything went so smoothly. Would DEFINITELY book her again. She also brought her own pup along, which was such a pleasant and much appreciated surprise since my dog does better with a support dog by his side.”
“After my original dog walker no-showed for the walk-through that had been confirmed 8 hrs prior, I was in a pickle. We had 3 days to find someone to walk & feed our 3 dogs of varying ages and personalities. Kristine not only was available, she came to the walk through prepared with all the right questions to put us at ease. Jacqi, Caryn and Stevie can be a lot for anyone but she handled 8 days like a pro who genuinely cared. And to top it off we received at least 5 photos from every visit. We returned after a week away to happy and well cared for dogs and Kristine is the reason why. If you ever need a pet sitter, look no further!”
“Linda was great with our Yogi Bear, and he absolutely loved her! We booked her in a squeeze, and she was able to adjust her schedule and make time for us, which we greatly appreciated! She also was very kind and patient with our boy despite his extra energy. And we could tell that she has a lot of experience with dogs- which is important to us as corgi parents. Overall, we look forward to looking with her again soon, and many thanks! 🐾🙂”
“Tenielle is always great but on this visit she couldn’t get into our house because we messed up the key situation. She waited an extra 15-20 minutes for a friend of ours to come over with a key. She still walked our dogs for the full thirty minutes. We appreciate Tenielle and the effort she made to ensure our dogs were walked.”
“Victor is great with Zuse! He is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a wonderful way with dogs. Zuse always seems happy and well-cared for after their time together. If you are looking for a walker who is professional and genuinely cares about your pup, I highly recommend Victor!”
“Very happy that I was Angelique's first client to walk my furbaby. She was very thorough and sweet. She made sure to keep me updated and I will definitely book with her again.”
“Courtney was super responsive, on time and great with Walter. He is a huge dog and she handled him so well. We will definitely use Courtney for walks for our boy going forward!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I grew up with a family dog and have experience with daily responsibilities such as feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I currently care for my cat as well as two lizards and two turtles, so I’m comfortable managing different types of pets and their unique needs. I also helped care for my aunt’s Chihuahua for several months, walking and feeding him twice a day and making sure he was happy and comfortable. Being around animals has always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pet with the same attention and care I give my own. My schedule is currently open on Fridays and Saturdays. I am generally available starting around 11 AM and prefer midday visits, but I’m happy to stay flexible and can keep my afternoons open later if needed to accommodate your pet’s schedule. For safety and comfort, I currently provide care in clients’ homes rather than boarding pets in my own home. I believe pets feel most relaxed in their familiar environment, so I focus on maintaining their usual routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Valentina was right on time as promised, and she kindly helped out with all requests I had. She also updated me throughout Louie’s walk. I would trust her for more walks in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience. We have two rescue dogs who aren’t the easiest, and from day one she has been absolutely incredible with them. She’s patient, calm, and truly understands dogs with different needs and personalities. Her communication is excellent — always keeping us updated and giving us total peace of mind. It’s so clear how much she genuinely cares, and our dogs adore her. We feel extremely lucky to have found her and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Dean is great!! Super reliable, communicative and amazing with my dog Dior. I booked Dean superrr last minute this weekend and he responded immediately, kept me updated throughout the walks and I can’t wait to book him again”
About: I started working with pets at the start of the pandemic, when my mom surprised the household with an energetic and anxious goldendoodle. He was 50 pounds and 5 feet long, and insisted on peeing in every corner of the house. I dedicated myself to training him, and he now serves as a service animal for mental health disorders. In the last six years, I have worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, rabbits, birds, and cats. I can't wait to get to know your fur-baby :) I am available everyday between the hours of 9:00am - 3:00pm, but am able to make other arrangements if needed. Please feel free to contact me if amended hours are needed! My services include providing multiple daily walks, food, potty breaks, and playtime with your pet (dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds) in your home. I am also able to train pets at all levels of obedience to perform a series of tricks ranging from sit to retrieving medications.
