About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have always enjoyed caring for them. Growing up, I would often take care of my extended family’s dogs and even watch friends’ dogs for some extra cash. More recently, I’ve also helped friends in the area by dog and cat sitting when they needed someone they could trust. Since I’m currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule, I decided to give pet care a try locally. I recently moved to Astoria, and one of the things I love most about the neighborhood is seeing so many people out walking and enjoying time with their pets. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My schedule gives me flexibility during the week, and I’m excited to make pet care a regular part of my routine while getting to know the pets and people in my new neighborhood. I currently live in a 1bd apartment in Astoria and don’t have a pet of my own. I’m mainly looking to offer dog walking and drop-in visits, where I can give your pet plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. For drop in visits, I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, refreshing their water, giving them attention and playtime, and taking them outside for a bathroom break if needed. For dog walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets a safe and enjoyable walk.

“Taylor has walked my dog multiple times and is always extremely communicative and professional. Hudson loves her. I would highly recommend Taylor for any dog walking needs!”

“Angel has been so wonderful and patient with our dog, Leo, who is very guarded and doesn’t take to new people very well. Angel spent a couple weeks letting our dog get comfortable with him and trying different approaches to get him on leash and outside, and now they’re walking great together! Highly recommend !”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets :) I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 10am. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I follow the owner’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I also keep the home clean and send regular updates with photos.

About: I have been caring for my brother's dogs through out the years. His dogs range from a small dachshund with back pain to a very silly jindo to an older dog with slight back leg disabilities. I know how to care for a range of dogs and understand their behaviors and how to spoil them. I never look at my phone while dog walking because I know how important it is to watch dogs and be attentive in public. I currently have full availability to make sure your pet has the attention and care they need whenever they need it. I love walks just as much as dogs and am happy to accommodate whatever time is needed. Your rules come first. Walking outside in New York can be daunting so I want to make sure the experience is enjoyable for everyone. I never look at my phone when walking dogs and will avoid other dogs as well to ensure everyone's safety.

“Lenin went above and beyond for me. I’m so thankful for his help and service and he even helped clean up some mess and honestly I feel so blessed and I’m sure Ada was too. He was very caring and helpful. 1000% recommend Lenin he is amazing and very understanding.”

About: I grew up with a dog and a cat, and I adopted my first cat last year. The intervening years have been filled with pet sitting cats and dogs of all sizes (from my Uncle’s Chihuahua to my Brother’s Full Size Great Danoodle and Bernadoodle!). I’d love to check in on or walk your furry friend while you’re away and give them *almost* as much love as you! Whether your favorite furry friend is shy and needs patience or outgoing and just wants a companion for zoomies, I'll keep them safe and happy while you're gone. From simple tasks (feeding, walking, etc.) to the more complicated ones (administering medicine, deep cleaning litter boxes, or following your specialized plan), I'm here for it all! I'm available most weekdays 9-5 and am open to early morning/late evening sessions as well. I also have availability on some weekends; please send me a message and we can find something that works! The best part of meeting animals is learning their quirks and what makes them special. I want to get to know your pet and personalize their care.

About: Your pet will be happy!! I pay attention to the details! I understand that different pets have different needs. Some can have food available all times, while others need to be served at specific times, with the right ammount. I take details seriously and I will pay attention to your requests and execute them well! I had a lovely Schnauzer miniature named Jessie for 17 years and she was the happiness of my life. Unfortunately pets don’t live longer... and she passed. Now I have an adopted 12 year old cat, named Katie, and she is open up every day more. Just as my love grows!!!! I love all animals and I’ll be really happy to help you with your pet too! I’m currently working part time from home, so I have plenty of time to go on walks, visits, and take care of your pet. I’m very attentive with everything involving safety for your pet and your home! I always double check leashes and make sure they are away from the door before I leave.

“Devon, Was great with cooper! Cooper was very excited to go for walks with Devon. Very communicative and caring. Will definitely use Devon Again!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a part of my life. Even after moving out for college, I continued providing independent and app-based pet care (and now have over 8 years of experience). I work from home, so your pet will always have company, attention, and plenty of love while they’re with me. 🐾 I have experience caring for puppies who need a little extra playtime, training, and patience, as well as dogs that require medication during their stay. I’m also careful and consistent about maintaining each dog’s diet to ensure comfort for pups with sensitive stomachs (mine included). 🦴 The dogs and I typically go on three big walks a day (morning, mid-day, and evening). Our apartment complex has a great dog run, and there are plenty of nearby parks for extra playtime and sniff/potty breaks. On weekends or when I have a bit of downtime, I love taking longer adventures to Central Park or out to Long Island for some fresh air and exploration. The dogs ride safely and comfortably in a secured car bed, so every outing is both fun and safe. 🐕🌿 The dogs are fed on their regular schedule and always have fresh water available throughout the day. We take potty breaks as often as needed and make sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for. Between my work hours, I love spending time playing, snuggling, or going for smaller walks (it’s the best kind of break)! Our home has an overall calm and relaxed atmosphere, but also plenty of fun when the moment calls for it. 🐶💛

“Becky took exceptional care of our puppy. Followed all instructions and was very communicative. Would trust her with my first born and will book again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my family dogs Daisy the Shih Tzu for 14 great years, and caring for her taught me everything from daily routines to understanding her weird little quirks that make each dog unique. Since then, I’ve become the go‑to dog sitter for my friends, regularly helping with walks and overnight stays. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and know the importance of taking care of your dog as if it was my own. Your pet’s comfort and routine matter to me, and I’m committed to giving them the same love and attention they expect at home. I am currently working a flexible hybrid job in Tribeca and live in Astoria. I am flexible in terms of being near either location and more throughout the week. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, well‑organized 1‑bedroom apartment (about 500 sq ft), which creates a calm, controlled, and quiet environment that’s perfect for dogs who thrive on consistency and attention. My apartment is a short walk from multiple parks, so your dog will have plenty of space to play. The space is fully pet‑proofed and there is plenty of space for your dog’s bed/crate.

“Natasia was fantastic with my boy! She was attentive and supportive. She made adjustments when requested. Very kind. Went above and beyond!”

“Meghan did a really great job with Dexter! She was right on time, offered to meet my dog before the date of the walk came and was very receptive to all our needs. She took great care of him and I highly recommend her services!”

“Lillybeth is AMAZING!!!! She was so wonderful about keeping me updated and sending me the cutest pics of my Malakai. She came before I booked her to learn about the habits and personalities of my min pin and I SO appreciated her taking the time out of her day to come and do this!! Malakai clearly loved her and warmed up so quickly. She is wonderful and I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve always had a deep connection with dogs, growing up with a family dog I cared for and now owning my own. Whether your dog needs extra attention or faces specific challenges, I get it. From walks to playtime, I’m here to help and offer the support they need. Training takes time and practice, but with patience and dedication, it only gets better. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as I’m a dog owner myself. I make time for daily walks, playtime, and training sessions with my dog. As a freelance photographer, I have a flexible schedule, so I can adapt to your pet’s needs. I’ll be sure to keep you updated with pictures of your furbaby throughout the day, so you can stay connected and worry-free. For drop-in visits, I ensure that your pet feels safe and comfortable by sticking to their routine and environment. I keep their space tidy and secure, making sure any hazards are removed. During dog walks, I focus on providing a calm and enjoyable experience, keeping your dog safe on a leash and offering them mental and physical stimulation. Whether in your home or out on walks, I prioritize your pet’s well-being and will keep you updated with photos so you can stay connected and reassured.

“Jayly was great. Very communicative and took good care of our dog for his walk. Jayly also followed instructions for the dog’s particular feeding needs. We’ll definitely contact him again.”
