She responded to my initial email request from their site pretty quickly and then was SUPER responsive. She came on a really short notice to meet my two cats and grab a set of my keys and I felt comfortable after meeting her - she's super friendly and nice and seems to really love cats. I had her come twice over the weekend to feed and play with them (and do some light litterbox cleaning) and she could not have been better! Each visit was $25 all in and she keeps you updated with texts and photos and even videos. It was really nice to see my cats in action while I was missing them and see how well taken care of they were. Dami even cleaned and washed their food bowls without being asked! She was super personable and a huge animal lover and I'll definitely be using her for future cat sitting visits :)

We have had 3 walkers with them and each has been very trustworthy and responsible with our little guy. They walk each dog individually which was great for my dog who loves to get all the human attention to himself. It also allowed him the time and space to do all his business which did not happen when he was walked with multiple dogs (other company we used). We have never had a single issue with any walker in the last 2 years which I cannot say we experienced when we were in Brooklyn. They also have a great app where you can request and cancel appointments with ease as well as view pictures and comments from each walk. We also used them for various in home pet sitting over the years which worked out beautifully. The rates for both walking and sitting were competitive with the area. Overall, if you are looking for a dedicated walker or sitter to care for your pet this is the only place to look in Forest Hills!

5 stars does not do Farrah justice. She deserves an infinite amount of Yelp stars…read more Farrah has been our dog walker for 3 years. She is one of the most dependable and nicest people I have had the pleasure to meet. She is also a kick ass dog walker/sitter! Long weekend? Short notice? Week long vacation? Farrah never once turned down a job in the three years she worked with us. She never missed a scheduled walk either. If anything came up she would find coverage for you. My wife and I never had to worry! She spoiled us beyond belief. Most importantly though, our dogs absolutely LOVE Farrah. We are moving away from Astoria, so we will need to find a new walker. We will never take for granted how amazing Farrah has been these last few years, as no dog walker could compare. She set the bar impossibly high. Thank you for everything Farrah! We will miss you and so will Franky and Charlie, more than you know!

Ok, so there is what I observed and then what my kitten Marbles told me to type down. Ill go with…read moreme first. It's extremely difficult for me and my family to leave our precious scottish fold home alone and even harder to trust someone with our apartment keys. Word of mouth and references (yelp basically) is the only feasable way to know for sure so I yelped away and found that Farrah was at the top of her game. One after another, people are happy with her so I said if I have no choice but to trust someone with my apartment keys and to take care of our little guy, she's definately the one. Basically if everyone loves her and uses her, its someone you can trust. Now what cat marbles said about her: As you all are well aware, a cat of my pedigree and breed (scottish fold) dares not venture to a boarding place for they are all incompetent and beneath me! With that said, Farrah was a darling who came and fed me twice a day for 3 days, and played with me with endearing love. I know this because my human masters showed me daily pics of me they received from Farrah showing me happy and playful. I yearn for her again and await the next family trip where she can watch me again in the comfort of my own environment...

She was attentive to all the details, including how to administer Mia's daily heart medication. She sent me daily updates and pictures and was very responsive to any questions. My usually shy cat cuddled, purred, and loved on her within a few days. Elena wasn't in a rush and gave Mia all the love and care she wanted. I came home to a calm and content cat. The entire process was seamless and Elena was accommodating and flexible. Her dedication and love for animals is evident and I would highly recommend her. Thanks, Elena!

I would definitely ask for her as the sitter or walker whenever I need them again. The reason I'm giving them 3 stars is for not offering to at least give us a discount after our dog ingested hard pieces of plastic while in their daycare with Norma. He came home and started to vomit right away and after the 3rd time he did it, I decided to take him to his vet to see if his intestines were clear - if not, his life could have been in danger. I'm glad that at least he vomited them all as seen in an x-Ray and he only needed to take some tablets for his upset stomach. I also understand that we can get distracted while taking care of a puppy, but I didn't like the fact that I spent +$300 due to someone else's distraction and wasn't offered anything to compensate it somehow and rebuild my trust. I expected more than a follow up over text.

A true animal lover, she has a natural love of dogs that is apparent the minute you see her with your pet (... she lets ours lick her face... I don't even do that ). I often feel like I'm giving my dog a treat when I book Norma for a walk or boarding, as I feel like she loves on him harder than even we are able to as his dog-parents. To boot, she is deadly reliable and professional, taking her business extremely seriously. Would wholeheartedly recommend her!!!

Igor even lent me a slip lead for a week or so until the lead I ordered came in. Pancake looks forward to his walk everyday and I love getting the photos they share of him with his pack!
