Dog Sitters in Oyster Bay Cove, NY

Jeff

Jeff was fantastic! From start to finish, we knew our dog/home would be in good hands. We spoke over the phone and then met briefly before we left and while it was only a three-night sit, I would have felt just as comfortable had it been a three-week sit. Communication was great leading up, during, and after. He updated us on how our pooch was doing and sent sweet videos and we just know he gave her a lot of love. Jeff left our apartment tidy and clean and we had a happy dog upon our return! Please don’t hesitate to invite Jeff to sit!!

renee

I booked Renee for the second time and she is the best, she took great care of my kitties. They were so sad when she left!

Anne

Anne is the type of sitter you often read about here on Trusted and wish you could find that one too! The 5 stars for each category speak a lot for how she handles her stay with you, but what you don't know is: She's a photographer so you'll get great daily photos of your pets! She's a reiki healer so you'll come to a house that just feels awesome and peaceful. She's been traveling a lot herself so she appreciates what it feels like to come back to a house that is ready and waiting and comfortable and helps you transition back into the "real world" again. She is very observant and gives great briefings about what is happening with your pet(s) and gives a detailed report about how the day went and ended. She's very compassionate and caring for everyone and I highly recommend using Anne and Rick for your next sit!

Erica & Eric

Having Erica house sit was great. Usually the cats complain a lot when we get back from a trip. This time they made new friends, our house was safe and sound, our container garden, and plants were well cared for, and our home was shared with folks who appreciated the time and space. Erica's communication was just right, she asked clarifying questions and updated me on a few things. The pictures of happy cats were great. Our home was left neat and tidy. I woud gladly have a repeat sit. Thank you!

Marina

Marina was amazing, she took such good care of our three dogs. They went on daily walks, she sent us pictures throughout her stay. Our home was very clean and tidy when we came back. We would have her stay at our home anytime!

Tracy & Jonathan

Tracy and Jon took great care of our cat, sheep, farm, and home - again! They communicate clearly, are game for following complex instructions, and are very reliable! Plus our cat, Lefty, seems to really like them. :) So grateful for their caretaking help!

Julianne

Julianne was great. She took excellent care of Lola and our home. Very communicative and sent us frequent updates. We would absolutely love to have Julianne stay at our home to watch Lola again. 5 stars!

David

David and Molly took excellent care of our home and pets. I would absolutely recommend them as sitters for your home.

Lauren

Lauren was kind, resilient, and went so far beyond the call of duty with our pets. We could not be more grateful.

Shakiya

I cannot say enough about Shakiya and the care she gave our beloved dachshunds. From the moment we received her application, through the preliminary interview, and follow-up messages, Shakiya earned our trust and respect. She is a great communicator, as well as a curious and proactive person regarding your pets and their routine, habits and personalities. Shakiya came a day early to get acquainted with us, the dogs and our home. We felt 100% comfortable by the time we left that we left our precious babies in the right hands. While we were away, Shakiya sent us daily updates along with photos and videos. She was quick to respond to my messages, and she was great at asking questions when things came up. She treated our dogs with true love and affection, and for this we are forever grateful to Shakiya. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet/home sitter, and we look forward to having Shakiya sit for Bentley and Tilly again soon. She also took very good care of our home and left it in fantastic condition! I cannot recommend Shakiya enough — she truly is a unique and incredible person, and we feel very fortunate that she decided to apply to care for our doxies! I know they miss her already! 🐾

Ariana Sher

Ariana was a dream. My dog ADORED her and I came home to a sparkling clean apartment. She took fantastic care of our plants and I loved getting pictures and videos of my dog living his best life. I would have Ariana here again in a heartbeat.

Morgan

Morgan showed up right on time ready to go. She was willing to come a day early to get to know the dogs before we left. We threw a lot of little details at her about the quirks of the house and the habits of the dogs, but she seemed to remember everything just fine. The house was very tidy when we got home and he dogs seemed calm and happy. I would like to have Morgan come sit again.

Barrie

Karen was a great house sitter/dog sitter. She communicated well, was reliable, and kept us informed throughout the time while we were away. I would use Karen again without question. 
On top of a clean house, she left us flowers!

Anne

Angela was a wonderful sitter for me.
She was so friendly, respectful, and absolutely gave Nellie and Tilly five star care.
She kept me up to date at all times and sent me pictures of the beautiful walks they were having. It put my mind totally at ease to have a caring responsible person like Angela in my home. I could trust her 100%.
I would highly recommend Angela to mind your pets…. She is just fantastic!
We will truly miss her.
Thank you so much for your care and attention Angela.

Kris

Spencer and his adorable dog Charlie did a great job looking after my cat Leonard. My indoor and outdoor flowers and plants were also well cared for. Spencer is very friendly, responsive, and communicative, and tidy. 

I’d have Spencer and Charlie back anytime without hesitation!
