Small World Pet Sitters

Ann and Boni are totally reliable, incredibly kind, and — very important for us – very responsive on email! We’ve had them help out on short trips and long ones, and never had any concerns.

Ann and Boni are professional, thoughtful and detail oriented. They take a lot of time and care with our three kitties, especially one who has had cancer for the past few months. It has been such a relief knowing I can leave him in their care. We recommend them highly!

Ann and Boni are simply the best. (I know others have written this, but it’s really true.) They’ve taken care of our hamsters and fish for the past few years – it’s a relief to know that they’re so on top of things. Besides being incredibly nice people, they’re beyond responsible and compassionate. I love that they’ll text me photos of my animals while I’m away, so I know all is well. They even rescued our hamster, Quinta, when she escaped from her habitrail right after I left for a trip. The little escape artist managed to make a break for it, but Boni found her nesting in a paperback book behind a shelf.

Ann and Boni are amazing. Friendly, professional, and provide the most loving care to your pets. They’ve taken care of our two elderly cats for the last two years and I wish we’d asked them much earlier. Boni is wonderful with any med needs (no matter how complicated) and our cats genuinely adore him. We get regular updates even when abroad and always come back to a happy home. Highly recommend this wonderful small business!

Ann and Boni offer the awesome balance of professional, expert animal care and dog walking services along with their kind hearted, warm, loving nature. Brilliant team. They are thorough, communicative and reliable. We greatly appreciated their texts after every walk letting us know the details and how it went. Your animal friends will be super happy to have Ann and Boni in their lives.

Ann and Boni are simply the best! I was so incredibly glad to have found them about a year ago. We were a bit outside their service area but they agreed to expand for us to be able to walk our doggie Benjamin 3 times a week.
Using Ann and Boni’s services was absolutely stress-​free and it was so comforting to know they were visiting my dog while I was away. My dog has some leash aggression issues but Ann and Boni handled him perfectly on walks. He absolutely fell in love with them! I’m certain seeing Ann and Boni was the highlight of his day :)
I also really appreciated how flexible Ann and Boni were about making somewhat last minute changes to my weekly schedule. They always did everything they could to add walks where I needed them from week to week. Finally, I loved receiving messages after each walk letting me know how it went — lots of times they even included an adorable picture of my dog!
Unfortunately I’ve moved out of Brooklyn and can no longer use their services :(But I would urge anyone to sign up with Ann and Boni!!! You will not regret it and your pet will love you for it :)

Amazing service! Ann & Boni genuinely care about animals and their safety! They pay extra attention to detail and go the extra mile!

Ann and Boni are fantastic — great with pets and patient with their needs. One of my cats is an anxious hider. The other is sweet and playful but has to be given an inhaler for her asthma twice daily and her regimen of other medicines and/​or supplements has been in flux since we adopted her last November. Ann and Boni roll with the cats’ personalities and requirements and send brief daily updates (and sometimes photos) letting us know that all is well. I recommended them to a friend who’s also incredibly happy with them. They take their work seriously and animals love them. Best option in Kensington/​Ditmas Park.

I can’t say enough good things about Ann and Boni. Over the past five years I never worried about my cats when I was out of town. They medicated them, wore plastic bags on their shoes when the cats had an inexplicable case of giardia (so they wouldn’t spread it to other cats they were visiting), played with them, and lived with the fact that they would never see our littlest cat. We were out of town during hurricane Irene and Ann kept in constant contact about our cat that was on daily medication, as travel was difficult for them. They still made it every day. Ann and Boni are complete professionals, Ann always strikes exactly the right tone in her emails, and I wish I could take them with us when we relocate!

We used Small World Pet Sitters to take care of our 2 cats for short stretches and long stretches over several years. Ann, Boni & their crew were always fantastic! So great to get the updates on our kitties’ well being each day. We knew our cats were always well taken care of and happy while we were away :)

Ann and Boni are wonderful — beyond five stars.
They are conscientious, adoring of all creatures, they are communicative, compassionate, friendly and on top of that very professional. Your pet could not be left under better supervision. I have since left Brooklyn and I have to say I thought about staying JUST to stay near them.

To have found Ann & Boni has given us the ability to breath easy when we need to have our best friends cared for. We all know this, pet sitters in this city is very much a hit or miss proposition.
We have our share of horror stories like I am sure you do such as the door to our home being left unlocked because the moron the agency sent over to take care of our animals is an idiot. No better experience to come home from a long weekend and have the door be unlocked and slightly open, the pets distressed and the kitty litter overflowing.
Ann & Boni are TOTAL PROFESSIONALS! They have the utmost respect for our precious animals, our home, our valuables and our security. They communicate every visit via text, and have truly become our friends and saviors.
Without them, our lives would be entirely different, and our trips would be fraught with worry.

We LOVE Ann and Boni! They are the kind of people you want in your house caring for your animals. When we decide to venture out of the city we know our animals are safe. The daily text messages are also a comfort so we don’t have to guess what is happening. Also when we had a special needs cat with terminal kidney failure Ann and Boni were compassionate and gentle with her while administering her medications and subQ injections. We also have a teeny-​tiny dog and feel completely comfortable when Ann and Boni take him for a walk. You cannot go wrong with Ann and Boni. Still unsure, schedule a meet and greet. I am sure once you meet them you will be as happy as we are to have them in your life.

We started using Small World for Abner our double doodle well over a year ago. While we are working they walk and play with him a half hour a day. He loves them and they love him. Always reliable and trustworthy. While we were on vacation they also administered intravenous saline to our older cat. I recommend them without reservations.

Ann and Boni took care of my big, ancient, sick, lame, deaf dog for several years — right up until her final week of life. I never would have been able to get through those last months without them.
There are dog walkers who walk your dog, and there are dog walkers who become part of your extended family. Ann and Boni are the latter kind.
They were flexible, kind, professional and great communicators. And more than that, I trusted them implicitly with my most beloved buddy in the most critical times.
There is absolutely no higher praise than that.

Pretty much every pet owner thinks that their pet is the best, cutest, most special pet in the world. The pet sitters at Small World Pet Sitters will treat your pet with that same attitude. They have taken care of my cat on numerous occasions when I have been out of town. From short weekend trips to longer periods of two weeks, I have always felt confident that my cat is in good hands when Deirdre and Christine are visiting her. They send the sweetest messages to let me know all is well.
The staff at Small World is professional and reliable, I couldn’t ask for better pet sitters!

Ann and Boni are the BEST. Kind, attentive care and sweet texts from every visit so I know my girls are doing well when I travel! Thanks, guys!

My cat is a little difficult but Anna and Boni were the best and had no problems. I will now be able to get away with no worries. My cat was so well taken care of. He even ate more for them than me, which is great, since he is so picky. I loved hearing about how my cat was doing everyday and getting a pic as I missed him so. Can not praise their service enough. The best!

Small World Pet Sitters is great! Their daily texts allowed us to know our two cats were truly okay during our absence, and with one cat shy and the other on all kinds of medicine, that’s a tall order. Ann and Boni are kind, responsible, and have that special way with animals that makes them feel safe. We recommend them highly!!!

I honestly don’t know what we would do without Small World Pet Sitters. They give us such peace of mind when we are away. Their text messages each morning remind us that all is well. We always return to a very happy and healthy little animal.
Much gratitude to Ann, Boni and Christine!
