Pet Sitters in Sayville, NY

Patrice & Stephen

Patrice and Stephen were excellent house/pet sitters for us, going above and beyond expectations. At our request, they arrived the afternoon prior to our departure so that we could go over instructions and answer any questions. They were extremely conscientious and accommodating, asking important questions regarding our house and dog. While we were away, they took excellent care of our dog, walking him daily, and providing all of the care he needed. On the day before our return, they texted to let us know that dinner would be waiting for us in the refrigerator. After a long day of traveling to return home, that was definitely and added bonus to not have to stop and shop to prepare dinner on the way home. Upon our return home, the house was clean and organized, and our dog was happy. We were definitely in good hands with Patrice and Stephen, and would welcome them back any time, given the opportunity.

Cintia & Luiza

Cintia was so nice and a wonderful pet sitter for Mopsy and Sadie. The kitties enjoyed hanging out with her! Cintia was very communicative with us while we were away giving us updates and sending pictures of Mopsy and Sadie. There was a situation with Sadie and Cintia immediately notified us and resolved the issue. We would definitely recommend Cintia.

Jessica

Jessica was amazing!! She communicated clearly and took wonderful care of our dog and our home. We are very grateful to her for such a seamless sit! Our pup clearly had a great time, and Jessica was amazing about sending photo updates of weekend adventures. Thank you thank you thank you!

John

John was on point with everything. He was dependable, communicated well with lots of kitty photos and advised of when he left the house and what had been done prior to his departure. His companion, Mary, left us some homemade biscotti. Yummy! I would use him again if it works out.

Sara

Sara and her partner Michael were stellar in their communication as well as their care of our dogs and home! They took care of my 2 high energy and somewhat needy dogs for about 3 weeks and I had peace of mind knowing they were in really good hands the whole time.

Chloe

Chloe and her son were awesome! My Fish and home were well cared for and I also enjoyed her good nature. Great communication and very tidy as wellI. I would absolutely invite them back again!

Kathleen

Kathleen was the perfect house and pet sitter. She knows and understands dogs and cares about their wellbeing. She was concerned about our 14 year old Amber in particular and checked in with me. She was very communicative about both dogs, and incident that she encountered and handled well. Kathleen left our home squeaky clean and tidy and it was absolutely grand to meet her and spend sometime getting to know her too. She is a responsible, trustworthy and caring house and dog sitter. She is most welcome back anytime!

Caryn

From the moment Caryn walked through the door my animals loved her. Dylan kissed her after a bit of a bark to greet her. She kept me informed with pictures, while I was away on a business trip and aside from my TV finally dying, she didn't have any trouble with the house or pets. My neighbors picked her up for a walk with their dogs, and Dylan introduced her to his friends. I would use Caryn again in a heartbeat! Esp because she has a nursing background, and I have a geriatric dog, I felt he was in great hands. THANK YOU, CARYN!

Kaitlin

I was so pleased with Kaitlin as a house sitter! I would definitely have her again. She was incredibly resource and self sufficient even when my shower was broken and she had to deal with the maintenance people in my building! I was nervous about such a long stay but everything was perfect and Mango was well looked after. I am very grateful.

Daniel & Fab

Fabienne and Dan were a delight. We invited them to a meet and greet dinner at a neighborhood pub, hit it off immediately, and felt totally comfortable leaving our home in their care the next morning. For this particular sit, we took our dog with us so their responsibilities were limited to caring for an extensive collection of potted plants, our garden, and various perennials around the property. Fab kept us informed during our travels and we returned to a spotless clean home. It was wonderful to be able to relax when we got back, having everything in its place, the plants healthy, and the house dusted and vacuumed. We will be happy to have then back whenever our travels coincide with their schedules.

Laura

Our experience with Laura as a petsitter for our 6 cats, 2 dogs and turtle was 5 star! Laura committed to the sit for us a couple of months in advance and she was very responsive and communicative from beginning to end. We arranged to meet in person prior to the housesit and we were impressed instantly with her relaxed nature and comfort level with our menagerie of pets. It was very reassuring to travel after seeing how the pets took to her. A few of our pets have issues but Laura managed everything perfectly. She sent us updates daily and left the house in better shape than we left it. If you are reading this review to decide on a petsitter, I would look no further than Laura.

Suzanne & Steve

Suzanne and Steve were wonderful! Their communication prior to and during the sit was excellent. The house was spotless and the bedding washed and bed remade when I returned home. There was a problem with a laundry drain which they very kindly and competently handled. Wilbur clearly enjoyed their stay and I would highly recommend them.

esther

Esther is an absolute dream and after 25+ house sits I know when someone is genuine. The cats Boris and Malcolm warmed up to me straight away which was really, really nice it was an absolute heat wave in London but the house stayed very cool and the cats and I made plenty of use of the back garden. The house was very easy to look after and Esther made sure that her Cleaner continued to come in which was a nice treat for me I would come back in a heartbeat and really recommend this House Sit if you getThe chance. It’s situated in Battersea and it took only two minutes to drive from the house and get over to Chelsea there was never any traffic so it’s super convenient. Thanks  Esther

Cassandra

I had a lovely stay looking after Millie! 
Henrik and Cassandra were so welcoming and kind, I had two lovely dinners with Henrik and he helped me to plan my onward trip. 
Millie is such a cutie - she is energetic and fun whilst also cuddly and gentle. She was a pleasure to look after 😊
The house is absolutely gorgeous with unbelievable views and plenty of space. I couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay!

Joel

Fantastic handover, beautiful location and home, host extremely friendly and accommodating. Charlie is one of the sweetest dogs we have looked after and we hope to look after him again! We had a wonderful time.

Nihal

We feel extremely lucky to have found Nihal and her wonderful home. She and her son have five rescued dogs, all of whom were loving and wonderful.   We enjoyed our long walks through the Tuscan countryside and also spending time at home with the dogs enjoying the beautiful view. 

This was different for us, as Nihal was home most of our stay, but we felt her private studio gave us plenty of privacy and time to ourselves. We really enjoyed our time here and would love to go back one day.

Rebecca

We had a wonderful stay in Bella Vista over the New Year with Mops! Bex was communicative before and during the stay, and gave us all the information we needed to feel prepared for the sit and welcome on our arrival (we didn't overlap in-person). The nature in and around Bella Vista is perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors--for hiking, mountain biking, and so on--and we definitely took advantage of that during our stay, spending hours outdoors each day. Mops was a great companion on our walks and was friendly to all the people we met while we were out. At home, he was very chill and just wanted to snuggle up on the couch, which also suited us just fine! There were great cafes, restaurants, and so on in Bella Vista and in Bentonville, just a short drive away (check out Crystal Bridges!). All in all, this was the perfect way to start off our 2024, and we would highly recommend Bex, Mops, and Bella Vista to anyone fortunate enough to get to stay.

Mary

We had a wonderful time. Bear is a very laidback cat, reserved at first but got comfortable over time. Mary is really nice, great communication and her home is beautiful!
