House Sitting Washington Heights

“Ali was the best! Both Poppy (cat) and Lillian (dog) loved her! I am so grateful that they were comfortable. Ali followed their schedule for eating, walking and hanging out, and they were not even that excited when we got home. Our greeting was more like, "Oh, hi. You're back" Lillian didn't even bring me a toy, which she usually does even if I've only been gone for a half hour. I loved getting reports and photos. Ali joined our dog walking pack for the morning walk and all of our friends and their dogs really enjoyed having her. I will definitely refer Ali to anyone who asks. We will definitely engage her again!! I can't recommend Ali highly enough! Julie”

“We had the pleasure of having Clifmon care for our 2.5-year-old XL Weimaraner, Jake, for 15 days while we were away and we couldn’t be happier. From start to finish, he was reliable, attentive and professional. Clifmon followed Jake’s schedule to the letter-feedings, walks, playtime and overnight company, making sure our boy’s routine stayed consistent. He stayed in close contact with us the entire time, sending updates and notifying us promptly of anything we needed to know, whether it was about Jake or our apartment. Jake can be quite a handful (and is the apple of our eye!), but Clifmon handled him with patience, skill, and genuine care. Knowing Jake was in such capable hands gave us real peace of mind. We truly pray he has a great review of Jake too, because we’d LOVE for Clifmon to be our Go-To sitter whenever we travel. This was the best gift to my daughter, knowing her best friend was so well cared for. 5 Star recommendation Thank you, Clifmon!”

“Patty was an excellent sitter! She watched my dog for a long weekend and he clearly loved her. She also sent photos throughout, which I love to receive as a pet parent. My apartment was well cared for too. I highly recommend her!”

“I would highly recommend Asel as a pet sitter. She is considerate, responsible, reliable and wonderful with animals. Asel stayed in our home for 11 nights and took care of our dog and cat. Our cat is very easy, but our dog is a fairly new rescue who is a scared dog and often does not want to go outside for walks. Asel was very patient and bonded very quickly with both animals. She sent us pictures and updates every day during our trip. We came home to 2 very happy animals and our home was just as we left it!”

“It was the first time for my dog to be sitted with someone he didn”t know. That brought me anxiety but Brionna in the meet and greet gave me enough confidence to hire her. Although Pelusa played hard to get the first day, they bonded very well as days passed by. I will definitely trust Brionna again to sit for Pelusa.”

“Adeib was a great dog sitter! He stayed in my apartment and cared for my dog very well, following all instructions and communicating all throughout the stay. He welcomed my overly detailed instructions and sent pictures to updated me. I felt so confident that my dog was well cared for and would absolutely book him again!”

Jonathan W.

“Briana was fantastic. She took detailed notes on how to care for Astro. She was great at keeping in touch sending updates and pictures throughout the week. I know that Astro felt safe and happy with Briana. She also was very respectful of our space and when we returned everything was orderly and clean. We will DEFINITELY be hiring Briana again!”

“Emily was great with Nana. She was responsive and respectful and I’d book her again! Thanks Emily!!”

Priya S.

“Arin was the best!! Trooper was so happy and calm after her caring for him and she truly is an animal lover. She was responsible, responsive, and is a genuinely good nice person. I highly recommend her and can’t wait to use her when I have to go away again!”

Serena L.

“Our cat is diabetic, and needs two shots of insulin per day. Latasha did a wonderful job at giving him the shot, and spending time with him to make sure he got some play and people time in while we were away. He looked great when we got back, and we're so grateful we found Latasha! Maxwell says thank you for the wonderful care – so do we!”

Katherine W.

“Michele was quick to respond to any of our texts while she was taking care of our two cats, and sent us pictures daily. She was so kind as to come two days early to stay with one of our cats who was having some health issues. She paid extra attention to one of our cats who has health/behavioral issues and notified us of any issues the cats were having. We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely hire her again!”

Grace D.

“Wonderful care for Jax! Consistent and thoughtful updates, very cautious and tuned into care instructions, and responsive always. Will absolutely book again!”

Megan M.

“Courtney was fantastic with our dog and our cat, too. She is very kind and definitely built a great bond with our dog while we were away. We hope to book with her again in the future.”

“My active mini-husky Baxter enjoyed his time with Victor. Victor was professional, on time and took great care of Baxter. I would definitely book him again.”

About: Hi! I'm a college student working toward vet school, so caring for animals isn't just a job for me, it’s what I genuinely love doing. I've had my own cat for 5 years, so I know what it's like to be a pet parent. I've also spent plenty of time watching other people’s dogs and cats, from very high energy puppies to older dogs who just want a quiet environment. I'm comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. If something’s wrong I will reach out immediately. Since I'm on summer break, I have a pretty open schedule, but I do like to be upfront about my specific availability. I'm available Monday through Friday all day. On Saturdays, I'm available after 4:00 PM. I can also do evening visits, but I wrap things up by 10:00 PM. My schedule is pretty open until I start class the 28th of August. I will have class on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 11am to 1:45pm and Fridays from 10am to 1:45pm. I know routines are really important to pets, so I'll work around whatever schedule your pet is used to, like midday walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening check-ins before bed. Consistency is very important! I only provide care in your home because I believe that pets are more comfortable in their own environment, with their own things and smells. I'm really careful with doors or any gates and will always make sure to double check every exit to make sure your pet stays safely inside. I will treat your home the way I'd want mine treated, I will clean up after myself, wash any bowls I use, and leave things tidy. I'll also send any updates/photos at every visit so you can see how things are going. I will also save your vet's contact info, just in case of any emergency. I always like to be prepared for anything.

“I’ve left several glowing reviews of Monique’s services in the past and she remains the most dedicated, responsive, and wonderful carer as well as someone who takes immaculate care of your apartment. We recently used Mo’s services to care for our dog during the birth of our child and WOW - not only did she take wonderful care of our dog and always kept us in the loop so we could focus on our family in the hospital, but she also actually CLEANED our apartment and did the laundry. Absolutely above and beyond. If you can book her services, you absolutely must. Your pets will be in wonderful hands.”

“Our first overnight with Paloma and couldn’t be happier. She kept in communication and didn’t hesitate to ask clarifying questions. Excited to have her come again.”

About: Dog owners will be especially satisfied with the services I provide because I have skillfully and diligently learned how to understand and absolutely adore dogs. My experience comes from years freelance dog walking (and when I could I'd sit) for neighbors and teachers I went to high school with. I was taught by my teachers even outside of school about dogs and how to be a dog person. They even helped me with training my own. I have owed and cared for American Pit Bulls(owned), Chow Chows, Yorkshire Terriers, Shih Tzuz, Maltese Pups(Owned), Golden Retrievers and Bolognoses. My pet care services include Walking, (which I love most in this season when physical play is at its high for me.) Drop ins, Training and Grooming(for an additional fee). I have took Dog Obidience Classes at Petco in the Bronx NY 2012 and 2015 which was recommend by one of my clients I worked with back in 2012. I watch tons of educational videos about the psychology of dogs on my free time and I am actively always searching for ways to enhance my skills in dealing with dogs and cats alike. I am very responsible and have worked with many high profile professionals who have have been in need of a reliable person to act as an assistant. (Via TaskRabbit) From first meeting my clients, they will naturally sense my honest and loyal personality. (Just like a puppy :) - you pups best friend

About: I've been taking care of neighbors, family, and friends pets since I was in highschool. Providing feed, play, walks (and more) to all of their furry or feathered friends! I am currently attending a pre-professional dance workshop in nyc, as well as teaching classes at a local studio. My schedule is pretty flexible around these things, so just message me and I will let you know my availability. Caring for your pets in your own home, I am able to offer the assured comfortability of your pets and respectfulness to you're cherished space.
