“Iliana was wonderful with both of my dogs Benji and Lucy. Lucy stay only for a couple of days. I called Iliana last minute on new years and she was very accommodating. Benji stayed with her nearly 3 weeks. We communicated pretty much everyday. I will definitely contact her for my future trips. Once again thanks”

“Essence is the best! I know my dogs are in great hands with her. She is always flexible with us, she sends us updates without us having to ask, my dogs are always happy when they leave her place. She is the best and I am so grateful for her. Xoxo thank you Essence.”

“Analy was truly amazing with taking care of our husky!! She sent so many pictures and kept us updated throughout the day for his week long stay. She took him to the park and he had so much fun playing with the other dogs. Will definitely be dropping him off next time!”


“Alyona was terrific with my puppy Bennet. She sent pictures and updates throughout Bennet’s stay and assured me that she was doing well. Alyona was inquisitive about Bennet’s habits and likes and that clearly translated into how she cared for my puppy during her stay. I will absolutely rebook in the future.”

“Natali took wonderful care of Griffin while I was away. She was very patient with all of his quirks and special needs. She was very communicative and regularly let me know how he was doing. I really felt like she made Griffin very comfortable in her home and cared for him as if he were her own. I’m also very grateful to her for being so accommodating when I realized at the last minute that I had booked for the wrong dates! I would absolutely trust her to watch Griffin again in the future.”

“Rhinesca made my first dog sitting experience wonderful. She had excellent communication & sent pictures daily. My Kobe fell in love with her on the first visit. I would definitely recommend her & I attended to use her again.”

“Sayarlin was soo accommodating while watching my dog Dream! Even when I had to extend the pick up dates she was still willing to help out as best as she could. She even took Dream to the park to play which i'm sure she enjoyed. I will definitely use her to watch Dream in the future.”

“Maria is an awesome sitter! I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone! Her love for animals is out of this world. I needed a sitter at the last minute due to a family emergency. I looked through all the sitters on this app and came across Maria. After reading her reviews, I was sold on how highly everyone spoke of her, and let me tell you, they were right! Paco is usually very nervous around strangers, but when he met Maria for the first time, he warmed up to her as if he’d known her forever. She constantly sent pictures of Paco having a great time. Even though Paco is afraid of bigger dogs, she made him feel completely safe around them. He went to the beach, to the park, everywhere! I felt so at ease knowing that Paco was with someone like her.”

“Stephanie and Corey were absolutely amazing with my baby! 🐾❤️ They were so playful and loving with her, sent tons of updates, photos, and videos, and truly treated her like their own. Their dogs were also the sweetest playmates for Piper! I usually get nervous leaving her, but they made me feel completely at ease knowing she was happy, loved, and well cared for. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would absolutely trust them with my baby again! 🥰🐶”


“Fantastic dog sitter! Kiara responds quickly to any messages and we loved getting pictures of our dog while away. Our dog looked happy when we returned--we've already booked Kiara for a couple more weekends!”

“Naomi was amazing! Benji had an amazing time and Naomi was communicative and great throughout the whole process!! I highly recommend working with Naomi, I felt that my dog was in great hands while I was away.”

“As a new NYC resident, I was nervous to leave my 1 year old dog behind for a trip for the first time—I could not be more thankful to have found Binta :) She took the time to meet me and Joey before drop off day so that he could be as comfortable as possible. I loved receiving daily updates about how he was doing. It was clear he was happy and very well taken care of with Binta!”

“I had an amazing experience with our dog Omar! He truly went above and beyond to make sure Lou was happy, comfortable and well cared for. Every day Omar sent thoughtful updates along with lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my fur baby was getting plenty of love and attention. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely book with Omar again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter!”

“Noelle was amazing with Babka! He has such a wonderful time and was so happy. We felt comfortable with Noelle and confident that Babka was in great hands. It was so great that Babka had a backyard to run around in and get so much love from Noelle. This was our first time using a sitter since Babka is only 8 months old and we would trust him with Noelle 100%!”

“I was very with Chialing care for my baby Lola. She kept us updated. Send this pictures videos. Lola actually walked with no leash and they are run away so I’m happy with that. Her care her time and to keep up letting us know how everything was going was excellent. I would definitely definitely use her again to babysit my baby dog Lola. Thank you so much for your care and your love and your attention.”

“Elisa is a wonderful sitter as well as a caring and thoughtful person. She was kind enough to take out my trash when she noticed it getting a bit smelly during my last long trip. Her communication is excellent. Thanks so much for giving the kitties such good care and attention.”


“Mittens got daily visits from Lili for over a week while I was away. when I got a picture I could tell kitty was happy and she meowed me so herself when I got home. I plan on calling Lili again next time Mittens needs a sitter.”

“Have been using Jessica for several months now and she is the best!! Great availability, great with our cats and sends pictures and updates every visit. She is our go to cat sitter any time we leave town”


About: I have always had a fondness for cats, and that has only grown as I started cat sitting professionally. I have experience giving medication in multiple different forms, and am not shy around a litter box. Cats that are not comfortable around new people or take time to warm up to others don’t intimidate me, and I am always ready to put in the effort to make them comfortable and feel safe. I am also more than willing to play for long periods of time with high energy cats and kittens who may otherwise get into mischief.
About: Hi, I’m Erick! I’ve cared for dogs since childhood and have years of experience walking, sitting, and making pups feel safe and loved. I recently started working as a school bus driver, which shows the patience and responsibility I bring to everything I do. My schedule is: • Mon–Fri: Available 9:30–11 AM & after 6 PM • Weekends: Fully open Even though Rover shows I don’t send photos 100% of the time, that’s only because I usually text updates and photos directly to owners for faster communication. Rest assured, you’ll always know how your pup is doing! Whether it’s a walk or drop-in, I’ll treat your dog like family and keep their routine consistent. Monday – Thursday • Availability: 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM & 6:00 PM – 11:00 PM • 30-Minute Walks: $20 • Drop-Ins (45 minutes): $30 (Includes walking, feeding, refreshing water, playtime, and small additional services.) Friday • Availability: 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM & 6:00 PM – 11:00 PM • 30-Minute Walks: $20 • Drop-Ins (45 minutes): $30 Saturday – Sunday • Open availability • Weekend Fee: +$5 added to walks and drop-ins — Walks: $25 — Drop-Ins: $35 I’ll get on the ground with your dog, ensuring they feel comfortable and engaged. I provide walks at least two times a day, or more if needed, and make sure they’re fed two to three times daily—or as often as you prefer.

“I would definitely recommend Fallon— she was consistently prompt and responsive, and our care instructions were followed perfectly. Our shyest cat rarely makes an appearance when we have a cat sitter, and he was out and about from day 1.”


About: I have 5 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive with feeding, walks, playtime, and basic care. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like my own.

“So grateful of Aymet becoming my cat sitter. My cat took to her instantly upon the initial meet up. Aymet made sure my cat and house was well taken cared for during my absence. She was very attentive to my cat and her needs. I will definitely rebook her. My cat and myself is appriciatic”


About: I’ve had my two cats for about three years now, and we’ve built a routine together around feeding, playing, sleeping, and everything in between. Every day when I walk through the door, they’re the first two to greet me. I make sure they’re always fed, clean, hydrated, well cared for, and most importantly, safe.

About: Some people are not cat lovers because they do not take the time to understand cats. Cats are truly unique in the way they show you love; you just have to take the time and have the patience to get to know them. I know each cat I meet with have their own traits, personality and rituals. I have not met a cat I did not like!

“I had such a wonderful experience with Corey and Stephanie! They took amazing care of my dog and truly treated her like she was one of their own. They kept me updated multiple times throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was safe, happy, and being well cared for. I especially appreciated how attentive they were to her comfort around the other dogs at daycare. They made sure she felt safe and even took the time to walk her separately so she could have some one-on-one attention. That really showed me how much they genuinely care about each dog and their individual needs. Corey and Stephanie are incredibly kind, friendly, and clearly have a genuine love for dogs. I felt completely comfortable leaving my girl in their care, and I will absolutely be booking with them again. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for people who will care for your dog as if they were their own! 🐾❤️”

“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.

About: We’re Justin and Esther—animal lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Justin has had pets his whole life, starting with a sweet cat named China, who had a litter of kittens he raised until their passing. Today, we care for Lunae Lux, our energetic Siberian Husky, and Fayth, Justin’s affectionate cat. For Esther, being surrounded by animals was always a dream—and marrying Justin made it a reality. It’s allowed her to bond deeply with both Lunae and Fayth, fulfilling her lifelong wish to share her days with furry companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or training, we’re passionate about giving every pet the care and love they deserve. Animals are the first and most important priority of the day, afternoon and night. They are like children in that aspect, or fur children as people say. My cat and dog get along very well. I have trained my Siberian Husky to be more understanding and caring to smaller animals such as cats.

About: With six years of dedicated companionship with my own beloved dog, I've honed my pet care skills to perfection. From daily walks to cozy cuddle sessions, I understand the importance of providing love, attention, and personalized care to furry friends. Whether it's administering medication, following specific dietary needs, or simply offering companionship, I pride myself on creating a safe and nurturing environment where pets thrive. Incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine is a top priority for me. Each day begins with a morning walk, ensuring my furry friend gets the exercise they need to start their day right. Throughout the week, I schedule regular feeding times and play sessions to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. I also carve out time for grooming, whether it's brushing their coat or trimming their nails, to ensure their well-being and hygiene. Additionally, I make it a point to dedicate quality time for bonding activities, such as training sessions or simply snuggling on the couch. By seamlessly integrating pet care into my routine, I provide consistent love and attention to my furry companion, enriching both of our lives. Regardless of the setting, I remain attentive to each pet's individual needs, whether it's administering medication, providing grooming services, or simply offering companionship and reassurance. Regular communication with clients ensures that they are kept informed about their pet's well-being and any notable updates during their absence. Ultimately, my goal is to provide loving and responsible care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.

“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.”

“Nicole did an amazing job with walking Edi and cleaning him. She updated pictures to let me see him enjoying his walks. Definitely would recommend Nicole.”

About: My girlfriend and I have a great love and passion for taking care of animals! We treat them all as if they were our own!

I also love to get my steps in! Through making sure my pups were well fed and played with, to ensuring their safety with safe and careful socialization, the health and well being always comes first for any pet in my care.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend Erick Torres – The Kairo Cup! We cannot say enough great things about Erick Torres with The Kairo Cup. Every year at the beginning of January, my partner and I travel from the Bronx, NY to Coral Springs, FL with our elderly snowbird friends. We usually stay through my birthday and return at the end of the month, then make another trip back in April or May to bring them home. During these trips, having someone we can truly trust with our dog is essential. We have a 3-year-old Doberman Pinscher named Dino, and he is a big, strong boy who needs confident and experienced handling. Erick has been nothing short of amazing. He consistently kept us fully updated on every walk, immediately communicated anything that needed attention, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. Erick is professional, reliable, and genuinely caring, and it gave us total peace of mind knowing Dino was in such good hands while we were away. My partner and I are incredibly grateful to have met such a dependable and trustworthy dog walker. We will absolutely use Erick’s services again and highly recommend him to anyone in need of top-notch dog walking services. Dino loves him—and so do we!”

About: For the past 4 years I have worked with dogs in various capacities from walking, to bathing to training. My role as a doggie daycare handler provides me with constant exposure to dogs of all sizes, breeds and temperaments meaning no matter how big or small or excited or silly I can handle your pup. My background in training means I can provide your pup with structured care tailored to their needs. I’m currently working part-time, but have more than enough time or you and your pet. I have more free time on the weekdays, but may have time on select weekends or at night. I will dedicate my time to ensuring your pups needs are met whether that be feeding, walking or bathing. As I’ll be stepping into their home environment I’ll be sure to show your dog respect and patience as they get to know me.
About: I’ve been passionately caring for dogs since I was 13 years old. Over the years, I’ve fostered and adopted multiple dogs, specializing in communication-based training, housebreaking, and custom communication techniques. I’ve successfully trained dogs to express their needs clearly—whether signaling to go outside, asking for water, or communicating when it's mealtime! Currently, I balance my college studies with working professionally as a dog handler. Because of my professional background in canine behavior and training, I understand how dogs think, learn, and communicate. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, high-energy playtime, or just a calm, confident handler while you're away, they will be in expert hands. Current Fall Schedule (August – December) I balance professional training and college courses, which keeps my routine structured and consistent. I am available for bookings on specific days each week: Morning Shift Days (Work 6:00 AM – 2:00 PM): Fully available for afternoon walks, drop-ins, evening visits, and overnight house sitting starting after 2:30 PM. Evening Shift Days (Work 2:00 PM – 10:00 PM): Available for early morning walks, breakfast drop-ins, and mid-day visits up until 1:00 PM. Overnight House Sitting: Available regularly! As long as your dog can be left comfortably during my work/class hours, I provide full overnight care, evening exercise, and morning routines. Winter & Spring Availability (Starting January) Beginning in December, my college semester ends and my availability expands significantly. I will have full, open availability alongside my standard work shifts for drop-ins, walks, and boarding/sitting. When staying at or visiting a client's home, safety, clear communication, and keeping your dog happy and comfortable are my top priorities: Potty Breaks & Routine Maintenance: I stick strictly to your pet's established routine for outdoor breaks, feeding times, and bedtime to keep their environment feeling familiar and stress-free. Appetite & Engagement Solutions: If a dog is feeling anxious or hesitant to eat in a new routine, I use low-impact playtime, light exercise, or gentle mental stimulation to help them settle in, relax, and get their digestive system moving naturally. Home Security & Respect: I treat your home with total respect—keeping doors securely locked, maintaining a clean space, and following all specific instructions regarding gated areas, crate routines, or security systems. Constant Communication & Updates: You will receive regular photo updates, routine check-ins, and immediate communication so you always have total peace of mind while you're away. (Note: I currently do not offer boarding services inside my own home, focusing 100% of my attention on on-site house sitting, drop-in visits, and walking.)
About: Hi pet parents! I’m Midory. As a proud mom of two and a dedicated pet owner, my days are full of activity, structure, and a whole lot of love for animals. I specialize in walking and caring for dogs who thrive in lively environments and absolutely adore being around children.Because we are a busy, pet-loving household, your dog will get plenty of attention, built-in socialization, and a consistent routine. I know how important it is to keep pets safe and active while you are away, so I tailor our walks to your dog’s specific energy level.Our home is a warm, family-friendly space where your pup will be treated just like one of our own. I provide regular photo updates and transparent communication so you always have total peace of mind. I can't wait to meet your kid-friendly pup for some fun and exercise! Mornings between 8-11am as long as dogs are kid friendly.On weekends any time and I can also do anytime after 4pm on weekdays if needed. I treat your home with the utmost respect and keep your dog's safety as my top priority. During walks, I strictly follow your preferred routes, use secure leashes, and practice positive reinforcement. For drop-in visits, I stick closely to your established routine: feeding on time, refreshing water, administering any needed medications, and providing plenty of play and affection. Before leaving, I always double-check that your home is secure, the pup is settled, and I send you a detailed update with photos.
“Tiffany is amazing! Definitely will be my primary from now on. My dog has terrible anxiety around other dogs and she took on that challenge with no issues. She goes far and beyond to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. Your pet will be in good hands when choosing Tiffany!”


“Aymet was beyond amazing. She took great care of my lil Joliee. She was kind and consistent with sending updates. She is gentle, understanding and patient with the furbabies. Thank you so much. I will book again!”

About: I've been in love with animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up around animals and owned a chihuahua. I regularly take care of friends' dogs in the area when they are out of town and am happy to meet some new furry friends! I am very loving, responsible, organized, nurturing, and attentive. Animals make me happy. I would love to take care of your furry friend! Book me and allow me to do something I love to do. I currently work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I'm happy to visit your dog whenever is best for their schedule. I will gladly send you picture and video updates of your pet, and happy to play with them using their favorite toys. I also love cuddle sessions! I will ensure your pet is being cared for and am open to learning your pet's caregiving style. I like to listen to the pets I care for and pay attention to their body language. That has helped me fully understand the needs of each pet I have taken care of.

About: I've spent the past two years in the dog care industry, working for an all-natural dog food company where I learned firsthand how nutrition, routine, and attentive care shape a dog's health and happiness. That experience taught me to pay close attention to the small things — appetite changes, energy levels, individual quirks — that make every dog unique. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and my own Yorkie is my best friend. Caring for her has taught me just how much patient, loving, attentive care matters, and it's exactly what I want to bring to every dog I look after. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding, and I treat every dog in my care the way I'd want mine treated: with patience, consistency, and a lot of affection. Whether it's a quick walk, a weekend of boarding, or holding down the fort while you're away, I'll send photos and updates so you always know your pup is safe, comfortable, and loved. I am self-employed annd work from home so my schedule is very flexible. I take my dog on a long walk in Van Cortlandt in the morning and then usually do two more shorter walks throughout the day. I am happy to try to accommodate your schedule the best I can. I live in a pet friendly apartment in Riverdale that is right next to multiple parks. If I ever have to leave a dog in home by themselves I will always make sure calming music is playing, the place is at a comfortable temperature, and there is light.

“Alyona was terrific with my puppy Bennet. She sent pictures and updates throughout Bennet’s stay and assured me that she was doing well. Alyona was inquisitive about Bennet’s habits and likes and that clearly translated into how she cared for my puppy during her stay. I will absolutely rebook in the future.”

“Natali took wonderful care of Griffin while I was away. She was very patient with all of his quirks and special needs. She was very communicative and regularly let me know how he was doing. I really felt like she made Griffin very comfortable in her home and cared for him as if he were her own. I’m also very grateful to her for being so accommodating when I realized at the last minute that I had booked for the wrong dates! I would absolutely trust her to watch Griffin again in the future.”

“Sayarlin was soo accommodating while watching my dog Dream! Even when I had to extend the pick up dates she was still willing to help out as best as she could. She even took Dream to the park to play which i'm sure she enjoyed. I will definitely use her to watch Dream in the future.”


“Excellent job! Vivian went above and beyond the call of duty. Communication was highly professional, She was a great cat sitter, fast response and very affordable! Would absolutely leave my baby again with her if I'm away again! ... Very friendly & helpful. She kept me updated with photos and the communication was great too. Absolutely recommending her services.”

“Maria is an awesome sitter! I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone! Her love for animals is out of this world. I needed a sitter at the last minute due to a family emergency. I looked through all the sitters on this app and came across Maria. After reading her reviews, I was sold on how highly everyone spoke of her, and let me tell you, they were right! Paco is usually very nervous around strangers, but when he met Maria for the first time, he warmed up to her as if he’d known her forever. She constantly sent pictures of Paco having a great time. Even though Paco is afraid of bigger dogs, she made him feel completely safe around them. He went to the beach, to the park, everywhere! I felt so at ease knowing that Paco was with someone like her.”


“Sujaya was amazing!! She thought of everything, put together an adorable FAQ sheet and was so communicative during Baxters stay. I appreciated all the pictures and the care she took of him. She treated him just like her own. I will definitely be using her again!”


“Fantastic dog sitter! Kiara responds quickly to any messages and we loved getting pictures of our dog while away. Our dog looked happy when we returned--we've already booked Kiara for a couple more weekends!”

“Naomi was amazing! Benji had an amazing time and Naomi was communicative and great throughout the whole process!! I highly recommend working with Naomi, I felt that my dog was in great hands while I was away.”

“As a new NYC resident, I was nervous to leave my 1 year old dog behind for a trip for the first time—I could not be more thankful to have found Binta :) She took the time to meet me and Joey before drop off day so that he could be as comfortable as possible. I loved receiving daily updates about how he was doing. It was clear he was happy and very well taken care of with Binta!”

“I had an amazing experience with our dog Omar! He truly went above and beyond to make sure Lou was happy, comfortable and well cared for. Every day Omar sent thoughtful updates along with lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my fur baby was getting plenty of love and attention. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely book with Omar again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter!”

“Noelle was amazing with Babka! He has such a wonderful time and was so happy. We felt comfortable with Noelle and confident that Babka was in great hands. It was so great that Babka had a backyard to run around in and get so much love from Noelle. This was our first time using a sitter since Babka is only 8 months old and we would trust him with Noelle 100%!”


“Jialarie was a delight and a great sitter for my pup. I can tell he had a wonderful time and have ample time to release his playful energy. She was responsive and provided pictures and clear communication. I will be booking again in the future.”

“I have encountered a lot of dog lovers but not like Will! My dog fit in perfectly, and honestly I loved that! I will definitely use Will services again, and even recommend a few of my friends that have dogs. If you looking for a Nanny that is a 10/10 , Will is your person .”


“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”

“I cannot recommend Imari enough! She was so good with Dougie, making sure that he was comfortable when I left him and giving him lots of love and exercise. She was so great at communicating with me to let me know how he was doing and sending pictures and videos. It was so nice to know that my pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend Imari and would book with her again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 6 years, including raising and caring for my own Lab mix named Otis. I’m experienced with the day-to-day needs of dogs, from walks and playtime to feeding, companionship, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every dog like family and take pride in providing patient, attentive, and individualized care. I’d be happy to give your pup a fun, comfortable, and stress-free stay while you’re away! I work remotely 4 days a week and my husband, Nick, owns a small business in the neighborhood and regularly stops by home to check in and dog walk. We’d provide your dog with a calm, fun, caring, and attentive environment while you’re away. I provide dogs with a comfortable, loving, and structured routine throughout the day. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and regular meals according to their usual schedule. I also give them plenty of opportunities to relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual personality, energy level, and needs, and I always prioritize their safety and happiness. My goal is for every pup to feel cared for, comfortable, and loved while they’re with us.
