“Trevor took great care of Romeo and our home for us, and we would highly recommend him in the future. He gave us daily pictures and updates to keep us informed. Romeo got lots of exercise, and seems to miss Trevor now that he’s not here! We would love to use Trevor again, knowing Romeo would be in great hands.”
“Kristina was a lifesaver when our usual dog sitter had to cancel last minute due to a health emergency. Kristina was available on short notice and even made time to come meet our dog Lorenzo a few days ahead to get him comfortable with her, and learn his routine and care needs. After that brief visit and her warm and patient approach with him, he took to her, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. She kept us updated on how he was doing during the day and took great care of him. We will definitely be using Kristina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with their pet!”
“Absolutely incredible. I needed a sitter for my pup last minute and Jess went out of her way above and beyond to squeeze in a meet and greet as well as watching my furbaby. Super sweet, punctual, great communication and absolutely love and care for my furbaby. Highly recommend and would definitely rebook with when needed.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! When I was 10 I had a puppy and have volunteered at animal shelters throughout high school. I can assure you I will take great care of your animals with all the love in my heart. I’m currently free in the mornings and afternoons, weekdays and weekends! I’m available Monday after 3pm and Tuesday-Sunday I’m pretty available! Will be available after 6pm from July 7th-12th. Will be going on vacation from July 25th-27th and August 2nd-6th! I’m definitely a fan of walks and playtime! I’ll make sure the clients house is clean before they return and that their pet has a blast!
“Rose did an amazing job sitting for my two dogs, Noodle and Boba! Thank you so much for spending quality time with them while I was away. She sent plenty of photos and videos, asked questions about their schedules and habits, and I could tell from it all that my pups had a great time and were safe and healthy with Rose. I will definitely be reaching out to Rose whenever I need a sitter. Thank you!”
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a teenager, having family pets growing up and also including watching neighbors’ dogs as well as friends and family members pets over the years. Animals have always warmed up to me immediately, even when described as shy or unfriendly. I work full time but my position has me mobile and traveling to different locations around Long Island throughout the day. This allows me to make stops during the midday for walks. I will also be able to pet sit over night and weekends. I care for all pets as if they were my own. Beyond providing walks and feeding your pet they will also receive attention and affection as well. Along with the utmost care to be aware of drivers and other dogs during walks and to secure any property during overnight visits.
“Jen has watched Bertha in our home multiple times and is always a pleasure to work with. Bertha is always happy and relaxed when we get home and the house always looks great! We highly recommend Jen!!”
“Charlotte was absolutely wonderful! She loved on our three dogs and kept us updated while we were away! I was put at ease by the updates and pictures sent! Such a sweet kind soul - we look forward to using her again!”
“Great 👍! I had her for three days, came on time and treated my two big fur babies with love and affection. I hand retriever and a husky, so you know you got the hair all over. She enjoyed being with them and also sent me pictures for the updates. She was a great help and will definitely book for later. Thank you Sabrina 😊”
About: I have owned dogs almost all my life and treat them as though they are my family. I have dealt with dogs who have to take medicine and dogs with different medical conditions. I have taken care of dogs of many different sizes from pugs to huskeys. I currently take care of my childhood dogs that live with my mother when she goes away. I am currently an unemployed college student, so over the summer I have all the time in the world to play, walk, and care for your pets! I will make sure that your pets follow all your house rules from putting them in a crate or not being allowed to use furniture.
“We are so glad we had Sam! She stayed in touch with us throughout the week. We gave her quite the task —taking care of a 14 1/2 year old husky and a 5 year old energetic golden doodle for almost a week! We felt so comfortable with her especially because she was so proactive in checking in. She stayed in our house for the week and even when we came back the place was super clean and our girls seemed so happy with her time there!! We loved Sam and we will most definitely be reaching out to her again!! Thank you Sam!!!! 💛💛💛”
About: Hi! My name is Shelby. I am a dog owner and a recent graduate with a Bachelor degree in Animal Science on the path of becoming a veterinarian. I am looking to take care of pets of any size. I have experience from all over but the most significant one is my current workplace where I function as a veterinarian technician, so I’m more than confident in my pet handling skills. With that job comes responsibilities like medicating animals, watching and understanding body language, looking out for problematic symptoms, etc. all things I succeed in. At the practice I work at, we deal with dogs and cats of all different sizes and temperament, so do not be too worried if you book with me. With that being said, getting to meet your fabulous pet would be a great pleasure for me not only because I love animals but because it moves me forward in what I strive to become, which is, an understanding and caring doctor of veterinary medicine! I’m currently working full time as a veterinary technician. My schedule is Monday through Friday from 9AM-6PM, with an hour lunch break. I do have the weekends off. I have a fur baby of my own so I know how important it is to make sure whoever takes care of your pet is doing their very best and nothing less of that. I am an active listener so whatever you want me to do it will be done to a tee. Crating, giving medicine, enrichment activities, etc. are all things within my capabilities and even if something isn’t I will be sure to let you know beforehand. I have house sit before so updates on anything will always be given and I will leave your home just as it was. Your home and pet is like another part of you so I would never treat it as less than that.
“Linda was amazing! She helped us out last minute when we couldn’t find anyone else. The dogs really liked her and she was great with them. She updated us with photos and you could tell the dogs were happy. She followed all instructions that we left her and we couldn’t be happier. I will definitely use her in the future and recommend her.”
“Stacia cared for our 4 pets for 2 nights. She did an excellent job and we would definitely book her again. She was communicative, sent pictures, and followed instructions. We appreciated her professionalism.”
“Emily is such an amazing sitter! She was flexible and understanding (especially with me being on the other coast of the country when I booked her)! She sent many pictures and videos of my baby that was loved and cared for while I was gone. I already have her booked for another weekend”
About: I have taken care of my family friends dogs for years, often ranging from elderly mini poodles to energetic border collies. I also have my own dog, however, because I am away for college she is currently not with me. I am also a Division 1 Athlete so I love taking them out on walks and having fun with them. I am available on mornings of weekdays and all day on weekends, because I am a full time student-athlete. In addition, late evenings of weekdays work well for me as well. I will often take pets on walks and make sure they get adequate exercise. Having a pet of my own, I understand how important nutrition is to your pets and will follow whatever plan you have for them. In addition, I also acknowledge how important it is to have a clean pet, and can wash your pet.
“Thank you again Sarah for watching and taking care of Cookie for me while I was gone! She had an awesome time with Java. Sarah was very hands on with Cookie and made sure she had plenty of yard time. I came home to a tired dog who enjoyed her evening full of fun! Thank you so much☺️”
“Samantha was perfect! Great communication before during and after the stay! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with Samantha! Our pup had a great time and was sad to see Samantha leave! Samantha took notes about the important things and the little things that Major needed or made him comfortable! We will definitely book again with Samantha!! Great peice of mind! Didn’t have to bother a friend! And she did everything we asked including loving on our dog! Best money spent!! Thank you Ava, Steven and Major”

Jeanne S.
“Jeanne has been a very caring and conscientious sitter for our two sweet dogs. She always makes sure their leashes are secure and brings water and snacks if the walk is more than just around the block. She is very caring and considerate of both the animals and their parents, and is always ready to take the time for a belly rub or behind the ears. She's always happy to play with them as much as having the fur babies sit, lie down, and stay!”
