Pet Sitters in Centre Island, NY

Anna

We were absolutely thrilled with the conscientious care Anna provided for our beloved dog and cat during our recent trip. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she is not was not only kind but also an excellent house guest. She took the time to understand our dog's routine and needs, ensuring that everything went smoothly in our absence. When our dog fell sick, Anna handled the situation with great responsibility and compassion, keeping us informed with good updates about our dog's condition. Her dedication to our pet's well-being gave us peace of mind, knowing that our furry family members were in the best hands. In addition to her stellar care for our dog and cat, Anna was incredibly respectful of our home. Her attentiveness and kind nature truly made her a great house guest. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and conscientious caregiver for their pets.

Amelia

I thoroughly recommend Amelia and Tom as house and pet sitters! They are friendly, kind and interesting people. They took fantastic care of our two labradors, sending us photo updates every day. The dogs looked like they had so much fun and I'm certain they are missing Amelia & Tom. They kept our house very clean & tidy and watered my veggie garden too. We'd be very happy to have them come and stay again!

Max

Max and Alizae did a great job caring for our cats! They were organized and communicative throughout the sit. The apartment was left clean. They were keen to learn the personality of each of our cats and they were well taken care of throughout the trip. We would recommend them!

Matthew

Matthew is AMAZING! He asked good questions about things I forgot to explain but also took initiative where needed. Loki was so chill and relaxed when I got home, which was such a relief. He stayed in comms with me throughout the stay and even went to the trouble of replacing things he used in the house --- a step that went above and beyond! I would happily have Matthew sit for me anytime and recommend him 100% to any pet parent considering him. Thanks so much!

Nadia

Nadia was an amazing Pet Sitter. She understands cat behavior and did a great job caring for my little one😺 She was very communicative, and left my apartment spotless. She also sent lots of pictures every day which I really loved. When I returned home my cat acted as if I was never even gone I'd be happy to have her anytime

Molly

Molly was wonderful in all ways! Very communicative from the beginning to end, and super attentive to our cats’ needs. Both our sweet cats were having some digestive issues during her stay, and Molly handled them patiently, responsibly and with much care, keeping us informed every step of the way. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned, and our lil’ creatures were relaxed and happy :) Would definitely recommend Molly, and we hope she’ll get to stay with our cats again !❤️

Nina

I can't say enough about how wonderful Nina is as a petsitter and a person. Making the initial arrangements for the sit was super easy as Nina was super easy to communicate with and was very responsive. She was flexible in terms of the dates of the sit and arrived at the perfect time to be able to meet Olive and go on a walk with Ess and get to know the area. It was immediately clear that she has a sincere affection for dogs a natural ability to care for them, she became fast friends with Olive almost immediately. As a very experienced traveler, Nina was very independent and didn't need any guidance on how to navigate Athens. During the trip, Nina provided regular updates and photos and it was clear that Olive was in good hands. She took Olive on long walks regularly so I know Oli was very happy. Since I came back from traveling a few days before Ess, Nina stayed some extra days and continued to help with Olive so I could readjust and return to work, which was a huge help. It also allowed getting to know her and her amazing travel adventures more, which I am grateful for. She left the apartment clean and even washed her sheets, which we didn't even ask for or expect but of course, is highly appreciated. I can tell Oli misses her already, Nina would be welcome to stay with us anytime. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

Anabella & Jeremy

Anabella and her mother stayed for a week to care for my mare, my mini and my 2 dogs. I think it was a little adventure for them. All animals are happy and thriving upon return and the beagle is radiant. I am very grateful for their diligence and care. So far I have met the most wonderful people with TH. I wish I'd had longer to orientate them, yet still they rose to the occasion. I am thankful

Stacy

It was so great to have Stacy stay with Izzy! From our initial conversation, Stacy was responsive, reliable, and made me feel at ease that my pup and home were in good hands. Izzy and I would welcome Stacy back any time!

Jocelyn

Jocelyn was incredible! Very communicative and insanely clean. I could tell Namu was very well cared after and honestly she left my apartment cleaner than before. Would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat

Julia & Jon

This is the second time Julia and Jon have cat sit for me. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Lucy & James

Lucy and James took excellent care of Jelly, our home, and our plants! Sylvie is such a sweet baby, and she and Jelly really took to one another. We were really impressed by the photos and cute videos that they sent us of Jelly; the photos were better than any we have taken ourselves. They took Jelly to the beach, the park, and other dog-friendly places. They treated her like part of their family, and we appreciate that they included her in their fun! When we returned, our home was clean, the plants were thriving, and the pup was happy. From meeting them in person and from all our communication, we could tell that Lucy and James are genuinely kind and very responsible people. We felt at ease during our vacation knowing that Jelly was in good hands. I could list more compliments, but suffice it to say, I would recommend them as sitters to anyone. We would love for them watch Jelly any time! Thank you Lucy, James, and Sylvie! 💗

Stacey

Happy to have Heather stay at ours while we were away! Turned out our friends took wee Jet while we were gone, but we wanted to still be able to offer heather a place to stay, lovely person through and through! Look forward to staying in touch and having paths cross again.  X

Gladys

Thank you so much to Gladys and Scott for letting us sit for their two wonderful Whippets, Snoopy and Pinkman. Gladys and Scott are two of the most hospitable, friendly, funny and warm natured people you will meet. We had such a great evening of outstanding delicious food with them before their trip, sharing stories and laughs. They have a beautiful home in the Anaheim Hills which is nice and quiet. They were so phenomenally thorough with everything anyone need to know about their homes, their neighbourhood and of course their lovely well behaved boys. The Welcome Guide they produced in a binder and PDF is not only hilarious but it covers everything. Pinkman and Snoopy are fun dogs with lovely characters. They are superbly well behaved on the leash and have a very simple routine. Pinkman loves to snuggle and Snoopy loves his toys and will play fetch with them over and over. We had a great week with both of them and we were really not ready to say goodbye. You’ll take hundreds of photos of them and be desperate to get home to see them even if you went out an hour to buy groceries. We were so grateful for the sweet touches Gladys and Scott went out of their way to make in order for our stay to be very comfortable. They are excellent and communication and felt like we were sitting for friends the moment we spoke on video chat. Please please keep in touch and if you ever want a trip to sunny Sooke in Vancouver Island we would happily host you.

Carla

It was a real pleasure to house and pet sit for Carla. The 4 dogs were all really sweet and easy. I would be happy to sit for them again and I can recommend it to any other sitter.

Frank and Michelle

Frank and Michelle were so well prepared when I got there it was a seamless transition. Archie and Jack were great to hang out with. They are very relaxed and know their routine very well. But, I think the highlight of the day for them was going on walks. If I am ever in Australia again and Frank and Michelle need a sitter I would definitely sit for them again no questions asked.

Lyn

I had a brilliant time on my relatively short sit for Lyn. It was also really lovely to be able to spend time with her before and after she went away. Her beautiful, unique house is in a quiet hamlet away from it all and has a relaxing woodland walk just down the lane. Sukie was so sweet, very talkative and very much a human lover - whenever I sat down, she was on my lap! The sheep were entertaining and it was an enjoyable and educational experience for me to take care of them. As well as doing the local walk a couple of times, I ventured around the Shaldon area, visited Bovey Tracey and went up onto Dartmoor near Haytor. Larger places with facilities are also within easy reach by car so there's plenty to see and do. I would highly recommend and hope to return when I'm down south again.

Clint

Very easy house sit.  Good communication and instructions.  Really easy to get to from the Interstate (we were in an RV) and in a nice neighbourhood.  5 mins walk to buses that go straight in to Nashville and very cheap.    Excellent accommodation in the pool/guest house. Poppy and Ruby are really cute affectionate dogs.  They spent most of their time in the pool house with us but were in the main house overnight.  They get very excited at the prospect of a walk.  We'd be happy to sit again if we were in the area.

Janet

We had a wonderful experience and delightful stay in the Cambridgeshire countryside while looking after Bob and Lily.  Janet & Neil were perfect  host leaving us clear instructions.  We had very relaxing stay in their wonderful home. The area had lots of nice walks with plenty of wildlife.  Their dogs Bob and Lily were a pleasure to look after plus their Bantam Chickens were no trouble and funny to watch.  We would not hesitate to housesit for them again if given the opportunity.  Thank you both very much for a wonderful week.
