About: 💠 Hello! I offer pet care for when you’re not able to be there. I am available for drop-in visits, pet sitting, pet daycare, and also pet walking (even for cats!). 🚙 I currently provide pet care services for most of the Nassau County area and some parts of Nassau-Queens border. I am also able to travel to Manhattan with added transportation coverage. I am local: Repeat services booked with me receive special accommodations & rates. 🌃 Messages that are sent after hours on Rover may be responded to on the following day. 🔹 I’m experienced with small breeds, or toy breeds, specifically Pomeranians, been around them all my life, including newborns and senior dogs who were raised starting as puppies. 🔹 Experienced with docile cat breeds, in particular Persian, Himalayan, Ragdoll, Maine Coon and other related cat breeds. 🔹 Have experience with Goldfish, Bettas and birds such as Budgies, so knowledgeable about care. 🐾 I’m intuitive and pay attention to picking up the different ways a dog or cat expresses nonverbal communication, they constantly give us cues. About Me: I own a color-point Persian cat who is 7 years old that I enjoy spoiling. I can speak Italian, enjoy gardening, art, sewing, yoga, tennis & pilates. I’m a fan of the original Twilight movie directed by Catherine Hardwicke. 🐾 I’m currently providing pet care for a King Charles Cavalier who has mobility issues and dietary restrictions, but he is such a big mush! I am also caring for a special needs 4 month old kitten who needs to be syringe-fed, given both topical & oral medication on schedule, along with helping her with using a litter box. In addition to assisting with care of a (palm-sized) rescue kitten who is less than one month old needing to be bottle fed every few hours, given antibiotic medication for her eyes and frequent cleaning with wet wipes, due to being too young to know how to use a litter box. I have found it to be extremely rewarding and willing to look after a few more furbabies within my local area. 🔹 I’m trustworthy and reliable, I would always practice good manners. Respectful of privacy when I’m in a client’s home. I make sure that when I’m with your pet, safety is an upmost priority.
“Tanu and her family provided a safe environment for our two dogs. Our senior dog has medical problems, and Tanu communicated promptly when any issues arose. She exercised them regularly and sent us daily updates and photos.”
“We’ve booked with Erica multiple times. She and her family are always amazing with Maverick. She takes great care of him and keeps us updated, which gives us so much peace of mind. 100/10 would recommend!!”
“There are no words to express how thankful I am for the excellent care Grace provided our puppy when we went away on vacation. My puppy is an anxious dog, he’s never away from us and every time we go on vacation and get him back he always tells us how mad he was for leaving him. This was the first time that my dog didn’t show that attitude. He stayed happy and was back to his old cheerful self. Grace made his stay comfortable, he was kept clean and fed. We were updated with pictures and videos. Grace had also offered to have our dog spend a few hours several days before the real vacation to get my dog acclimated. Her place is very clean, has no odor, is air conditioned with a closed fenced yard for play. My dog who does not eat when not at home, ate and he was the same dog as we left him. I think that tells ALOT! We will use Grace again and we’re lucky to have found her. God bless you! ❤️”
“Victoria is reliable, trustworthy, attentive, and incredibly kind, this is truly the most wonderful dog sitter I have ever worked with. Knowing my dog was in such capable and loving hands made being away so much easier. I would absolutely book with again and recommend her to anyone looking for the very best care for their furry family member.”
“Pamela was an exceptional dog sitter for my dog. Her care is beyond explanation! I think my dog is gonna miss her more than he missed me 😄 While I was on vacation she sent me a lot of photos and videos about my dog that made me feel he’s with me. I absolutely recommend her and her care to anyone who loves to leave their dog in good hands!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”
“We had great communication with Shirley throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know our dog. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which we truly appreciated. She was also very flexible and accommodating when we had to change our plans due to the snowstorm. Highly recommend!”
“Pleasant, easy to work with and my dog loves her. It was a quick trip and I have to found a sitter, she accommodated my request and make it easy for me to make a decision to book with her and not others. I will use her services again. Thank you for taking care of Rusty”

Another great vacation for Frodo with Britany - she’s the best! She sent daily photos and videos without me even having to ask, and I never worried about Frodo during his stay. He looked like he was having the best time, and I honestly don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up! We can’t wait for Frodo to stay with her again in the future.
Kara was an absolute joy to work with. From the initial meet-and-greet to the thoughtful pictures and updates she sent throughout the stay, she made the entire experience stress-free and reassuring. Knowing my pet was safe and well cared for gave me complete peace of mind. She was definitely the right choice, and I will certainly book with her again!
Joanna did an excellent job taking care of my dog, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. She was very communicative throughout the entire process, always keeping me updated and making me feel comfortable while I was away. Her availability and flexibility were also greatly appreciated and made scheduling very easy. On top of that, everything was kept clean and organized, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about providing a safe and comfortable environment. Thank you again, Joanna, for taking such great care of my little guy!
Once again, I was worry and stress free leaving Lucas in the care of Caitlyn and family. They are so kind and caring with Lucas. He is particular and has specific needs which they are able to accommodate. I received updates, pics and stayed informed of his care during our time away. Thank you so much for taking excellent care of my furbaby :)
Erica did a great job babysitting our two dogs while we were on vacation. She communicated with us every single day, kept us updated with how they were doing, and gave us peace of mind while we were gone. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy person sitter!
I had a great experience with Tina! She took the time to meet Summer on short notice before taking care of her. She sent pictures and updates twice a day and I could tell Summer had a great time. She also has a fenced backyard where Summer enjoyed playing fetch and getting her zoomies out. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
Caitlin and Erick are two lovely young people that have a great responsibility ethic and feel for animals. This was the first dog sit experience for my Havanese puppy Sandy while we delivered our son to college. Caitlin and Erick understood her special anxiety, were able to deal with her emotions and made her feel comfortable so we could do what we needed to do. I expect to book further dog sits with this nice couple and thank them for making Sandy’s first dog sit a good one.
Our three dogs loved their stay with this lovely family! We got pictures, videos, and regular updates. The videos showed us how much fun our dogs were having, they loved running around the backyard and even our very shy dog made good friends! We felt assured that our dogs were well cared for while we were away on vacation, and we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing they were safe and happy. We will book again with Sonia and her family the next time we are away, for sure!
We used Nicole and Chris for a very last minute trip and have to say they came through as a blessing! My baby had an amazing time being spoiled by them! They were very responsive from the beginning till end. I received multiple daily updates with pics. He was walked, played with and came home very happy. Would highly recommend them. they both are very compassionate and responsible. Thank you Nicole and Chris for taking such great care of my baby!
