“Well, today is Shawn’s last day with; I don’t know who is going to miss him more… me or Max! It was such a relief to know that Max was being well cared for while I worked late these past few weeks. Shawn is amazing and a truly conscientious individual. I know Max appreciated having him care for him. I am going on vacation in June and will have Shawn care for Max if he is available on my date. Thank you Shawn, for being the wonderful man you are! See you soon! Max and Diane”


About: I had the privilege of owning a yellow lab for 14.5 years. She was the greatest dog in the world, so I now want to give back to her and take care of other dogs. Throughout my life, I’ve walked and sat for my friends’ dogs (all shapes and sizes) and just love dogs in every way. It’s great way for me to get out and relax in the wake of medical school demands!! My schedule is rotating weekly, so I have varying shifts of (9-5, 11-7, and 1-9) which can help cater to the different demands of my various clients. Additionally, I have my weekends free wherein I can accommodate any schedules!! I am an active person and love to go on walks up the Lakefront, exercise classes, and Pickleball with my friends! I live in a very dog-friendly building, I have a dog bed (that I wash between each use) and a crate, if needed. I live a couple blocks from Central Park that I’d love to go on walks with a dog.

About: I have had every domesticated animal growing up you can think of! Cats, dogs, bunnies, birds, snakes, turtles, iguanas, etc. I have always been such an animal lover seeing as I grew up with them. I currently have two of my own fur cats. Salem and Sterling. I am very flexible and I am able to take on whatever is needed. I am very accommodating and always available in whatever ways are needed for you and your pets. I prefer to watch your fur babies at your homes just because it’s easier for the animal to adjust vs being stressed coming to a whole new environment.

“Anna was fantastic. She FaceTimed with me a few days before I needed her so I could show her what I needed her to do for my cat. She was communicative both days she came over to feed the cat and sent pictures as well. I would definitely hire her again!”


“It was very lucky to have found Brynne to look after my senior cat for almost a month. Brynne treated my fur baby like her own precious baby. She was caring, conscientious, mindful, always on time, responsive, funny, communicative and I could go on with the superlatives. I want to gatekeep her but everyone should know what a great caretaker she is. Very happy to have found Brynne and will continue to use her exclusively when available since my kitty has special needs. Forever grateful 🙏”


About: My dog Luca is my pride and joy. I love caring for pets as they are my own. I am in tune with dog behaviors and actions and am open to learning the ins and outs of your pet’s favorite and not favorite things to help them have the best day even if you are away! I work as a nurse (for humans) 4 days a week and can take care of your pet in the wee (no pun intended) hours of the morning and even late at night. I also have weekends off and would love to spend them with your pet in an effort to keep up with their routine or have them have an extra special “treat” weekend filled with fun adventures! I live in an apartment complex with two dog parks and plenty of space for long walks. I can also take your pet to their favorite places and play and chill with your pet - whatever they choose to do whether they are high energy or couch potatoes - I match their energy!


About: I’ve had experience with larger breeds. I had an Airedale terrier growing up and had a large golden doodle who was almost 100 pounds so I’m a big fan of big dogs! I’m able to walk larger dogs with ease and have experience with food sensitive dogs as my doodle was allergic to just about everything. I’m available to do dog sitting pretty much whenever. I work from home full time so I am able to provide a lot of attention to any of my dog guests who stay with me and my husband. Dog walking I’m available most evenings and weekends with access to dog parks in my area if you are comfortable with me bringing your buddy there to play! I’m passionate about dogs and would love to use some extra time caring and tending to them! I’m new to caring for others dogs but not new to loving them - thanks for considering me to care for your best friend! I work from home full time so any dog that stays with me is a huge part of my schedule and routine! I can provide lots of daily walks and special attention for those who need a little extra love! It’s important for me to know what the rules and routine are at home! We try to keep things are normal as possible and not instill any bad habits when they are in our care! They get free reign of our home and we also have cameras to keep an eye on things if we aren’t home!

About: I have had experience with taken care of dogs since my pre-teen years with my best friend. He always had a lot of dogs, big and small and I was always the helping hand in making sure they were well fed and walked when they wanted to. I also loved playing with them and smiled when I saw them show their purely whites to me! Any time I'm with a dog, I treat them like my own and have learned from the best to continue that on with each experience. I currently work full time for Sarah Lawrence college Monday-Friday, but my schedule is still open after 7pm to house sit, especially for nights away for special occasions. My weekends I am available from 12-4pm if needed too. Safety is my first priority for any animal. I intend to ensure that they have the friend that doesn't leave their side till I know how they move around. My instinct is to ensure that the surroundings are safe and secure so that no mistakes are made and your dog doesn't have any ideas in playing cops and robbers.

About: As far as experience, I have a 3 year old cockapoo of my own that I have much experience taking care of since she was 4 months! I have also had other pets of family friends stay at my apartment and made check-ins during the day and overnight, so I am accustomed to ones outside of my own of all sizes, including cats. The best part is that I have a flexible schedule throughout the weekdays, while you are at work or out, or just need some time, I can check in, walk, and make sure your pet is cared for! I have a flexible, hybrid-remote work schedule throughout the week, where I come go on site at most 3 days a week. Most likely available on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I can offer a great walking experience with your pup! I am also very comfortable playing, feeding, and giving love to your pet during my visits as well!

I’ve loved dogs since I was little and now have a pup of my own plus 3 silly cats! I work weekdays 9a to 5pm, but I’m happy to stop by for walks before/after work or on weekends. Lots of belly rubs, tail wags, and purrs guaranteed! 🐾 I have a fenced yard, a friendly dog, 3 independent cats and a playful 2 year old who loves spending time with pets in a safe environment.

About: Ever since I was a little girl I had a passion for animals I’d chase one down the street if I didn’t know any better. I've owned animals since I could remember and I loved taking care of them. My dog ended up getting Diabetes about 4 years ago and lost his eyesight to it, I have spent every day since giving him the best care I possibly can and making every day special for him. I have my dog Tarzan on a special schedule to get his insulin twice a day while also caring for my elderly cat and I walk my neighborhood dogs every morning I keep a clean apartment 24/7 and make it easily accessible to my blind dog. I keep all human food on high surfaces to avoid animals eating them.

Julian B.
“Julian is not just a dog sitter or dog walker; he's an absolute dog enthusiast and dog lover. I know this just by watching how he interacts with my dog Riley, it's heartwarming. He doesn't just simply walk or play with her, he's formed a genuine bond with her. He once took her to Starbucks and got her a puppy cup because she loves them. And she took two licks and decided she doesn't want it anymore. And he was happy that at least she got two licks. He's played a lot of games with her. He'll hide squeaky toys under something and squeak them, and Riley will go nuts looking for where the sound is coming from, cuz she hears the noise but can't see it. He comes up with new games to play to keep her mind mentally stimulated. Julian's experience and his natural connection with dogs make him an amazing choice for your furry family member. He treats every dog like they're his own, with the care and attention you'd expect from a loving parent. If you want your pet to be in safe and loving hands, Julian is the perfect choice. Your dog will thank you for it.”


Gregory P.
“Gregory has cared for my two dogs on multiple occasions, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. He’s incredibly attentive, reliable, and clearly loves animals—my dogs absolutely light up when they see him! As a fellow dog owner, Greg understands how to provide both safe and loving care. He’s responsible, thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond. Any pet would be lucky to have him, and so would any pet owner.”




Maricel M.
“Maricel is a kind and responsible pet caregiver. She’s loving, dependable and treats every single pet like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone.”


Kaysha J.
“Kaysha is amazing. I’m extremely particular of who I entrust my dog to and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog caregiver. My dog even gets excited and willingly goes with her and she’s stubborn to the point that she won’t go with my family members. She’s very reliable and punctual.”


Samantha L.
“Samantha is truly an amazing dog sitter. I needed someone to watch my dog, Shadow, for a few days due to a family trip and reached out to my friend but she wasn’t able to watch him so she connected me with Sam. Honestly, best decision ever! My dog always gets excited when she walks through the door to watch him. I’ve witnessed her playing with him when I get back home which makes me happy because she legitimately spends time with him rather than just leaving him alone and bored. She’s also really good at keeping up with Shadows schedule and directions in regard to food. Just a 100/10 overall.”


Victoria M.
“Victoria is a excellent caregiver for my cat’s . She is always on time and show’s up exactly when she is supposed to for each feeding. Victoria always makes me feel confident and comfortable that my cat’s are well taken care of whenever we are on vocation or just a quick visit . I can only imagine that Victoria will do a amazing job as a dog walker also”


Erin C.
“I’ve had the privilege of knowing Erin for over eight years, and in that time, she’s become one of the most reliable and genuinely caring people in my life. When it comes to animals, her love and dedication are unmatched—she has an incredible ability to connect with pets and make them feel safe and loved. Erin is exactly who you want looking after your pet. She’s attentive, responsible, and incredibly kind. Whether it’s sticking to specific care routines or just making sure your pet feels at ease, she does it all with so much heart. She doesn’t just “watch” pets—she bonds with them and treats them like family. If you want peace of mind knowing your pet is in the best possible hands, Erin is it. She’s thoughtful, dependable, and truly has a gift when it comes to animals.”
