Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Woodlawn-Nordwood, Bronx, NY

About: My mother taught me everything I know about taking care of animals ever since I was eight years old, and I haven't stopped. To this day I have a 12 year old Great Dane that I take care of that requires specifics. I am currently working with my Great Dane, Mia, a dog that has incontinence that requires many walks, taking care of her diapers and cleaning up after her bed if needed. It's a daily thing that I need to work around along with school work in college. While my apartment isn't something that I can do. But I am more than willing to stay at home, I have worked in other people's home before, personal friends and I have an easy time adjusting to any environment.

About: I am available this month for dog sitting and dog walking. I had experience with smaller breeds but will happily care for a bigger dog. I love engaging and playing with dogs of all sizes! I believe playtime is very important for pets. With the added bonus of helping another person who might not have as much time on their hands, or who is unable to walk their beloved pets. Thank you for viewing my profile and considering me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends. I have an open schedule at the moment. My weekly routine involves the occasional dog walking gig and playing with my cat. My schedule will be open for the foreseeable future. I do not provide at home boarding at the moment. I have a cat of my own and he is not good with other pets.

“Kim did such a good job looking after our cat Mowgli while we away for our wedding weekend! She gave great updates and was totally reassuring before we left that everything would be great. I highly recommend Kim!!”

About: I absolutely love caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages! During my time at Dogtopia, I gained invaluable skills in creating a safe, fun, and enriching environment where pups can thrive. I’m trained in recognizing and understanding each dog’s unique personality, play style, and comfort level—making sure every interaction is both joyful and stress-free. What truly sets me apart is the extra care and attention I give to making each animal in my care feel happy, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs an adventurous walk, a shy dog who needs gentle encouragement, or a senior dog who appreciates slow strolls and extra cuddles, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. I’m attentive to both physical and emotional well-being—monitoring for signs of stress, fatigue, or overexcitement—and I’m skilled at balancing playtime with rest, so your pup goes home happy and content. With me, your dog isn’t just watched—they’re treated like a beloved family member every single day! Pet care is a joyful part of my weekly routine! Weekends & weekdays are fully open for boarding & daily care of your furry loved ones. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease. When I provide visits or walks at your home, I take time to keep your pet’s routine consistent—feeding at their usual times, following your exact instructions, and giving them the same love and attention they’re used to from you. I make sure they feel secure in their familiar environment, with plenty of play, exercise, and cuddles to keep them happy until you’re back. When pets stay in my home, they become part of my family. I offer a warm, clean, and friendly environment where they can relax, play, and enjoy constant companionship. I’m attentive to every detail—from cozy sleeping spaces to safe play areas—and I never leave pets unattended. I tailor my care to match their needs. No matter where I’m caring for them, your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I treat every furry friend as if they were my own, so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I'm Erick , and I've been taking care of dogs since I was eight years old. My love for dogs began when my older sister received a Shih Tzu named Prissy, but honestly, Prissy quickly became my dog. From feeding and walking to playing, I was the one who cared for her. Our neighbors quickly noticed how well I took care of Prissy, and before I knew it, I was looking after their dogs on weekends. Taking care of dogs has always been a passion of mine, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for countless dogs, learning their unique personalities and needs. No matter how many times I’ve been bitten, I’ve never been mad—though I’ve shed a few tears! My deep love for dogs only grew stronger. As I got older, I worked a variety of delivery jobs, but I never stopped caring for dogs on the weekends. I’ve met so many wonderful pups along the way that I started carrying treats with me everywhere, just in case I ran into a dog who needed a snack or a little attention. Ask, and I’ll have a big bag of treats and water ready for your dog too! Throughout my journey, I've even had the chance to train a few dogs in fun tricks, including my own. My dog, Kairo, knows a variety of commands like "fetch," "sit," "stay," "spin," "paw," "bed," and even "whisper." Seeing the bond and communication between a dog and their owner is something I truly cherish. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about dogs, someone with years of experience and a genuine love for animals, I’m here to help. Whether you need a reliable dog walker or a loving dog sitter, you can trust me to treat your dog as if they were my own. Let’s connect and talk about how I can care for your furry friend! Right now I’m focused on pet care full time. I’ll be starting a school bus driver job soon for the benefits, but I’ll still have plenty of time before, in between, and after shifts to care for pets. Driving a school bus shows the responsibility and patience I bring to the job, and I put that same care into looking after animals. I’ll get on the ground with your dog, ensuring they feel comfortable and engaged. I provide walks at least four times a day, or more if needed, and make sure they’re fed two to three times daily—or as often as you prefer. Additionally, I have a male dog that I can bring along for playtime, as long as both dogs have up-to-date medical records for safety.

“Fallon was a fantastic cat sitter for our cat, Yuki. She was professional and flexible, accepting our last-minute request and handling a slight mix-up we caused with ease. She sent us daily photo updates, which made us feel completely at ease during our two-week vacation. We came home to a happy cat and highly recommend her!”

“Shelley was absolutely great! She came in exactly when she said she would and went above and beyond caring for my cat. She took the time to give my cat attention, made sure the food and water bowls were full, and stayed in constant communication with me throughout. I especially appreciated the photo updates—it gave me such peace of mind. I highly recommend Shelley to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Brijae was an excellent care giver for Chelsea and Indy. I knew that she would be great with them during the meet and greet when Indy fell head over heels in love with her. Brijae was on point with details regarding their care and when an unexpected issue arose with Indy's eye, she reached out to me immediately letting me know about it and asking what she should do. During each visit, she would give an update and pictures. Everything was fine when I returned from my trip, and I have nothing but praise for the great service that she provided. I would strongly recommend her to anyone that's looking for a someone that genuinely cares about pets. I had an emergency situation arise and was truly amazed and very grateful that she took the booking on such a short notice. I would definitely use Brijae again and hope that she is available the next time I need a sitter.”

About: My husband and I have grown up around animals and have lived with dogs and cats. We are cat- parents and understand the needs of pet parents. My husband and I have flexible work schedules which allow us to take care of our fur baby and additional fur guests! We plan on caring for our fur friends as a team. Our fur friends will get to experience the nature and beauty of the park across the street or the cleanliness and tranquility of our apartment (with balcony, with permission). For visits to our fur friends we are committed to meeting pet parents expectations and maintaining a clean, organized and safe environment.

About: Hi I’m Tyshawn, I have a lot of experience with animals. I’ve had pets since I was young and I’ve helped take care of them. I have a 13 year old Morkie named Rocky that I love so dearly. I will treat your baby with so much love and affection as if they were mine. I will take your baby out for a walk 3 times a day like I take mine. I will stick to your routine if you have one. I believe that communication is key. I follow all instructions and I will keep you updated at all times. I also have a flexible schedule during the week and weekend. I live close to parks so your baby will have space to play. Does your dog take any medicine or have any allergies? Does your dog get along with other dogs? Does your dog have behavioral problems that I need to be aware about? Does your dog get scared easily?

About: I've had my dog his whole life (17 years) but I've actually been a caretaker for my entire life. I'm the eldest sibling, first grandchild, therefore the oldest of all of my cousins & I have babysat all of them (and their pets) through all stages of young life. I'm used to taking care of animals & kids. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter as a kid in Pennsylvania, and thus far there isn't a single animal that I've come to contact that I don't like! These days, I do a lot of pet & house sitting for my artist friends and family (ranging from just a walk a day to over a week of living with their pets.) I have experience with older animals with medical needs, and I've even taken over for friends who were pet sitting themselves but couldn't handle the difficulties of living in a small space with a large teething puppy. A couple of years ago (right before the pandemic) one of my favorite neighborhood cats brought my to her newborn kittens, and I took it upon myself to feed & house her & the babies until they were ready for adoption (and they're all safe and happy with their individual families). Even the mom eventually got spayed & adopted. I'm a freelance artist, so my schedule varies from week to week. At the moment, I have a lot of freedom, so I'm prepared to take on whatever service(s) are needed of me. I follow instructions very well & always leave homes cleaner than how I entered them. In the past, I've created lists on my phone with furbaby's routines & needs (medical details with images included as an added measure,) as well as sending pictures/videos to their owners while they're out.

About: I've been in love with animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up around animals and owned a chihuahua. I regularly take care of friends' dogs in the area when they are out of town and am happy to meet some new furry friends! I am very loving, responsible, organized, nurturing, and attentive. Animals make me happy. I would love to take care of your furry friend! Book me and allow me to do something I love to do. I currently work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I'm happy to visit your dog whenever is best for their schedule. I will gladly send you picture and video updates of your pet, and happy to play with them using their favorite toys. I also love cuddle sessions! I will ensure your pet is being cared for and am open to learning your pet's caregiving style. I like to listen to the pets I care for and pay attention to their body language. That has helped me fully understand the needs of each pet I have taken care of.
