House Sitting in Wainscott

“I almost don't want to leave this review, because Anica is so fabulous I don't want anyone else to snatch her up! Anica is just what you are looking for in a pet sitter...we have two Tibetan spaniel rescues from ARF, one is very friendly and active, while the other one is terribly shy. She managed both of them brilliantly. I will definitely hire her again and again and again...Now I can have a social life! Thank you Anica!”

About: Caring for dogs has always been second nature to me. It’s something I’ve done since I was little, and it’s become a true passion. Just like my heritage, I take pride in doing my best, whether it’s training energetic puppies, comforting senior dogs with extra care, or simply giving every pup the love and attention they deserve. I’m patient, reliable, and always tuned in to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’m a born and raised local from East Hampton, and I currently work full-time in the village five days a week. I’m available after 5 PM every day and have two days off during the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. Having my own license makes it easy for me to travel around and help out wherever I’m needed. Living and working locally lets me stay connected and reliable for the pets and families I care for. When caring for dogs in my home, they have a big backyard to explore with plenty of space to run and play. I live on a quiet, friendly street, perfect for walks, outdoor time, and keeping pups relaxed and happy. I also live close to the springs dog park and local beaches. When I’m caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure to follow their routines closely so the dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, treating every pet like my own. Whether it’s at my home or yours, I always make sure they’re loved, cared for, and well looked after.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and my own for a while. Friends and family always rely on me with pet care they need. I also volunteer at my local animal shelter during my free time. I am a very reliable individual and care for others, especially our furry friends! I currently go to college full time, but I do have some time during the holidays and weekends. I have a lot more availability when I am back home. When I am caring for pets at a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions provided. I send updates to reassure the owner. I always make sure pets feel comfortable in their safe environment!

About: I’m 27 years old and have been around dogs my entire life. I currently care for three dogs—one of my own and two family dogs—so I know how important daily exercise, attention, and love are for them. I have plenty of experience with dog walking and making sure pups get the activity and care they need. I currently work at Village Hall from 9am–4pm, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets before and after work, as well as during my lunch break at noon. I’m able to fit in walks, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day to make sure your pup gets the attention they need When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s, I make sure they’re in a calm, safe, and structured environment. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs before visits begin. I keep all spaces clean, secure, and free from hazards, and ensure gates and doors are always properly closed. I believe trust is built through consistency and communication, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep owners informed. I handle every pet as if they were my own—with patience, affection, and attention to detail—so they always feel comfortable, loved, and cared for.

“We were able to book Morgan last minute and she was fantastic! Great communication, super friendly, and took wonderful care of our dog, Woody. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend! 🐾”

About: Your dog is going to have a good time with me because I really enjoy time with them, they make my life better every single day. In my opinion the safest way to know the love is sharing time with dogs, they always let you know how happy they are to have to near, they just are always good and better for our life with the hability to change a bad day in a few minutes with some with some licks and barks from them. Dogs are love, Joy, loyalty for everybody around the world. Undoubtedly! I am 100% sure about it. Let me be happy with your dog too :) I will be so glad I am a part time employee, so I have always some time to take care of your dog when you are busy and need some help with your fur friend I have an spacious home with one dog and always door open to receive your dog when you need help taking care of him or her

“Jennifer and Emily meet in the morning of the November 15. Emily can be very shy. She immediately like Jennifer. I certainly did too! She is so sweet. She talked so nicely with Emily. We disgusted how she can be shy and she is afraid of most things. Talked food time and bathroom habits. Jennifer left and then came back for the appointed time. Emily was very happy to see her. Jennifer provided many pictures of their time together while I was out. My Emily was happy to see me come back but, not about Jennifer leaving. Emily went to hide after she left. She was upset with me that Jennifer had left. She ignored me for the rest of the night. Jennifer had made quite an impression on her. Jennifer is an unbelievable person. Hiring her would be a blessing to you and your pet. I give her 10 out of 10.”

About: Proud adoptions coordinator at ARF while also engaging in all aspects of animal care life across the shelter. Aspiring licensed vet tech currently taking courses. I've been around dogs most of my life. Pitbulls particularly are my spirit animal. I have acquired experience with a multitude of animals working in a veterinary hospital, which sparked the direction of my career with animals. Very experienced with shy, anxious, fear based pups. Do you have an animal that has social anxiety, is skiddish, or Is your dog nervous or selective? I’d love to see if I am a good fit for them. I have full availability for pet sitting and dog walking on Tuesdays and Wednesdays as well as the evenings. If you are local to Wainscot there may be more availability. Unfortunately, I cannot accept other animals in my home at this current time but perhaps one day in the future. I have my indoor cat at home with my significant other and I would love to drop in to tend to your pet(s) or go for walks!

About: I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter for almost four years, doing drop-in visits and walks for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also grown up with animals my whole life — two dogs, a few cats, and even small pets like rodents — so I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals. I’ve also fostered cats, which has given me even more experience with pets that have different needs and personalities. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. typical day usually includes a mix of walks, drop-in visits, and spending time with the pets I’m caring for. I make sure each dog gets a good walk, some playtime, and plenty of attention. For cats or smaller pets, I give fresh food and water, clean up after them, and spend time keeping them company. I love going for neighborhood walks, playing fetch, or just giving belly rubs and cuddles. Every visit is about making sure the pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks and playtime, and always have fresh water. I keep things clean, give lots of love and attention, and make sure they’re never left bored or anxious. I also send photo updates and messages so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy and in good hands.

About: As a child I was never allowed to have a pet. In college my best friend and I adopted a puppy named Wesley. I absolutely LOVE that companionship of having a dog and providing meaningful, loving life for them. I’ve had the opportunity to dog sit for many friends and family. Unfortunately, I live in a housing that does not allow for pets. I am looking for opportunities to be around love dogs and help assist others as they are away or in just in need of an extra hand! I currently work 8-4pm Monday-Friday with some flexibility in the schedule. If I know I’m advance that arrangements of Dog sitting I can make my schedule work with that.

About: We have loved working with Rover and pet sitting! Meeting so many nice people and their awesome pets! When we dog-sit, the dogs are treated with love and just like another member of our family. I am very responsive and respectful to the owners and pets needs, including schedules, treats, walks, medication, etc. We have a very large fenced in yard and a safe neighborhood for walks. We can accommodate crates, but do not require them. What ever makes you and your pup the most comfortable! I also have a gated in area in the house just for your dog so they are especially safe when I leave the house. We are a busy family but in the summer, I am home most of the time. We have our super friendly dog Fellini., so typically a new visitor, just jumps right in and Fellini shows them the ropes. As a teacher I’m off all weekends, holidays, summer and during the school year, someone is always home by 3, leaving lots of time for the doggies. I will do whatever you request and/or are comfortable with as the owner, leaving the pet out during the day or crating. Whatever you think is best! I've even had dogs on a scheduled nap time :) open communication here is important! I will ALWAYS send photos but usually do this via text as the app is a bit burdensome.

About: I have an immense amount of love for all animals. I enjoy getting to know each individual pet and their needs. It brings me joy to connect with each one of them. I am a seasonal farm worker. I am outdoors most days in nature, whether at the farm or in the garden. I spend lots of time walking in nature. I have a home in Southampton, close to nature trails and the ocean beaches. I also have an apartment in Brooklyn where I frequent the parks nearby. I have a small Boston terrier mix who is a delight to be around for humans and animals alike. I am happy to accommodate to your pets needs.

“Kurt was great with our 2-year-old Frenchie. He was very responsive and able to accommodate us at the last minute. He was attentive throughout the duration of the sit and sent frequent updates and photos. You can tell he is a real dog lover, which put our minds at ease. I would definitely recommend him for your Montauk petsitting needs!”
