About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life. Since 10, I have watched both dogs and cats. In my decades of experience, I have cared for small, medium, and large breeds, administered medication to pets. I have a fun and loving attitude and am excited to care for your fur babies! I'm currently working part-time and have plenty of hours in the day to drop-in or watch pets full time. I love taking long walks with dogs and snuggling them. I watch pets in their homes so that they are most comfortable. I am reliable and will follow and enforce any and all house rules for your pet.

Elizabeth was so helpful, communicative, and did exactly what Lola needed, walks and attention : ) Thank you so much for helping! Hope we Lola can see you again!”

“Jacob walked our two big kids Maggie & Milo for 6 days and put up with all their pulling and stubbornness. We could not have asked for a friendlier, more conscientious or patient person to deal with these two critters. I'm giving Jacob 5 stars and my strongest recommendation to anyone looking for an A+ walker.”

About: I grew up caring for both big and small dogs (and horses!), so I love dogs of all ages and sizes! I promise to treat your furry family like my own while helping to maintain your pet's daily routine, including walks, meals, play (in the home and/or at dog parks), baths, cuddles, and whatever else your pet loves. I currently work as a research assistant at Columbia University/ New York-Presbyterian, so I spend most of my day talking with people. Here, I continue to learn the value and importance of connecting with others. As your pet's sitter or walker, I prioritize communication and comfortability with you to ensure that you feel excited about your pets care. I know I am! I currently work as a research assistant at Columbia University/ New York-Presbyterian. I spend my mornings at the hospital from about 10am-2pm. On any day, I am available either early in the morning or afterwards for walks or play time with your pups. On weekends, I am available for boarding. Every third week, I work from home and would love to board and/or care for your furry family for the week. It's priority to me to maintain the routine your pup knows and loves. I hope to get to know you and your pet so I can incorporate your pet's favorite walking routes, parks, toys, food, and general activity into the care I provide. On a side note, I am a distance runner! If you would like your pet to get some extra energy out, I would love to run with them.

About: Every dog is different, and I love getting to know each dog’s personality and preferences. I’m mostly familiar with cats and big dogs, but I like small dogs too! I’m available to petsit in your home, check in on your pets, or walk your dog. I’ve always had pets, so I understand how they are part of your family and will provide high quality services that keep your pets safe and happy. From taking the time to make sure a timid cat is comfortable around me to safely handling a large dog on a walk around the neighborhood, I will always do what it takes to build a rapport with your pet and make sure they are safe and enjoy the time spent in my care. I’m a full-time master’s student and am looking for pet care jobs that I can fit into my schedule most days of the week, including weekends. I’m happy to provide food and water as instructed by the client and any other specifications as well (litter cleaning, play time, etc) and am attentive to any details about safety the owner mentions.

“Jolie really came through for me and my brand new rescue, Irving. He’s still getting used to city life and everything that comes with it, so he is highly reactive and anxious. She was available the same day to do a meet and greet and was completely calm and unbothered by his jumping and barking even in her face. She put us both at ease and was really patient with him. She took Irving on productive walks in the middle of the day and he took to her pretty quickly. She is also very communicative and kept me apprised of location and how the walks were going. I’d definitely use her services again!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes through my own pets and by helping friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send photo updates after every visit because I know how reassuring it is for pet parents to see their furry family member happy and well cared for. From energetic puppies to shy or senior dogs, I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following each owner’s instructions to ensure their pet receives the highest quality care. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule, allowing me to dedicate quality time and attention to every visit. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each pet owner’s needs whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra playtime, I’m committed to being dependable, punctual, and making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I pay close attention during walks, use secure leashes and harnesses, and always keep a clean, calm environment. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I strive to provide dependable care, clear communication, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: After working at an animal hospital for three years, and volunteering at animal shelters I knew that I was meant to work with dogs. Their time on this planet is shorter than ours so it's my mission to make their time on this planet a happy, loving, and nurturing one! I have experience in dog handling from working with groomers and working at an animal hospital. I also help pet owners learn how they can improve the quality of life of their dog's life by removing chemicals and toxins from their home. Before moving to the Hudson Valley I lived in the city where I would walk dogs and bathe them for a living, so I am thrilled to be able to do that again in my new home!

Selina is so amazing that I was tempted not to write a review to keep her a secret! She has been so kind and affirming for us as we started using a walker/sitter for the first time since rescuing our pup. She is incredibly patient and thoughtful and clearly cares a lot about animals and understands their behavior and how to manage them. I would recommend her to anyone!!
