Would definitely recommend Maija!”

I highly recommend Caroline. She is loving and nurturing. My pack was very comfortable with her.”

About: I have been an animal sitter since I was a teen! Throughout these 8 years of my life I have looked after different animals like my sister’s dogs, cousin’s bird, and even a snake for a friend! I have a lot of experience looking after dogs, as I’ve helped my sister raise her two dogs, Love & Bug, ever since she adopted them. I’ve learned about reactive behavioral training to nutritional food education, all that has allowed me to hone in my animal knowledge. In regards to cat experience, I have also raised my own, Sabertooth, who I rescued off the Brooklyn streets when I found him as a kitten! Who’ve I’ve not only taught to be harness/leash trained but has accompanied me on many journeys Upstate & out on Montauk! Needless to say I will look after your pet as if it was my own! I will diligently approach this duty of care and supervision with seriousness and empathy! I’m currently working part-time on the weekends at MoMA PS1, so during the week I am super accommodating and flexible. I’m still able to provide my services on the weekend depending on your situation and needs for your pet! I live in an area, where there is a lot of nearby dog parks to take your dog or great spaces to walk your dog in ( Or if you walk your cat!). I will treat your dog/cat like family in my home, and will adequately meet your specific request for your pet. I will also treat your home and spaces in the most respectful manner.
“Rebecca was such a great sitter. It was my first time using rover and I was so comfortable the whole time I was away. I got lots of updates and photos. I would definitely rebook her again any time I need to have my dog watched. My dog has a lot of unique quirks and isn’t the best behaved especially when anxious and she had great patience with him and made him feel safe and comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“My dogs Harry and Imogene loved Mariah from the first moment she sat down to greet them. I rarely saw my dogs so comfortable with anyone. She took my Irish terrier out for long walks, he enjoyed and gave my Shi Tzu endless cuddles that she needs. She is a true dog person and I always would have her sit my dogs again.”
“Shannon was amazing with my puppy Bear! She arrived early, sent photo updates & made sure to keep him happy & occupied while I was out - thanks again, Shannon! 🐾”
“Nicole was such a great sitter for our 3 month old 40lb little bear. Nicole was early, attentive to every single need of puppy, kind, respectful, and just a joy to be around. We highly recommend her to anyone considering her and we definitely plan to uses her services again!”
“Severine has consistently taken great care of my dogs and cats. She has house sit for me over long weekends a couple of times now, and she is very communicative and reliable. I recommend her to watch after your pets (and your home) if you need a sitter!”

I was so happy to find Emelin in the neighborhood to take care of our 2 cats during our trip. She is communicative, helpful, and took great care of our fur babies! This was the longest we’ve ever been separated from our cats so it was amazing to find someone we could trust with our cats and home.
Abigail did a fantastic job watching over my cat with both drop-ins and a one week housesit! Came home to a very happy and healthy cat and she left my apartment in excellent condition. I fully recommend booking Abigail, and definitely plan to hire her again in the future!
Alexandra was so attentive to both of our dogs and did a great job of tending to their specific needs while we were away on a week long vacation. She took them out for long walks and even brought a blanket to sit with them at a nearby park! We are so grateful to have someone we can trust to take care of them.
I always feel like the luckiest girl in the world when Kristina is free to stay with my five kitties! She’s so incredibly knowledgeable and experienced so I feel like I don’t have to be glued to my phone in case an issue arises with one of my dingbats. Her communication is stellar, my apartment is always spotless when I return, and the most important part: my cats ADORE her. There are certain cuddles my cats only do with me and no one else, even if a person visits regularly. Well, Kristina is the exception! They are doing the “mama only” cuddles on Kristina within a day!
Ella stayed overnight at our house and took good care of our 13-year-old Havanese. She was thoughtful in giving him space at the start of her stay so he could acclimate to her presence. She followed instructions and was super responsive. Rio had some separation anxiety when he was left alone and Ella made sure to return to him as quickly as possible. Thank you Ella for helping Rio feel comfortable.
Renee went above and beyond watching our dog Gobi! He is a cautious pup but he quickly warmed up to her and she let him go at his pace. He also has a special diet and she kindly made his lunch for him and sent me awesome pictures while I was at work. She also took him out on extra walks especially when he looked like he had to poop not at his usual time which I really appreciated! We will definitely ask Renee to watch Gobi again in the future. Thank you so much!
Rachel was awesome! My two dogs are not left often with a pet sitter - I am always worried about leaving them with someone I haven't met. This was a last minute trip to NYC so Rachel and I talked on the phone prior to her pet sitting. I knew right away after talking to her that my dogs would love her. I left them with her in our hotel room for 4.5 hours. She sent pictures and updates. My evening was stress free, thanks to Rachel!
Emily is a fantastic pet sitter! She is clearly very comfortable and caring with animals. She also is very attentive to details we provided when caring for our puppy. We received plenty of update pictures to make sure our little guy was having a fun day. Cannot recommend Emily enough - thank you Emily!
Rebecca beard as a dog sitter has been extraordinarily helpful. She has done the hard work of taking care of three animals all at once. My cat Swiss even looked like he enjoyed it, with his tongue out zoning out! Saying that my big dog Goliath enjoyed it is also an understatement, and same with mini! Somehow, in the photos, Rebecca made them look happier than me on vacation! Rebecca worked hard taking care of my dogs and my cat, so I would like to place more than a 5 star, but as you know, I can’t. Five stars, amazing!
Olivia was very sweet with Gobi and took wonderful care of him! He has a special lunch that needs to be mixed together which she kindly did for us. He is a cautious boy who needs a little TLC and patience sometimes but she let him warm up at his own pace and pretty quickly he trusted her and asked to play :) We would love to have Olivia watch Gobi again in the future! Thank you!
