Doggy Day Care Battery Park

“Minako saved the day! We are currently moving and she was able, at the last minute, to take our pups for most of the day. It was a HUGE help. Thank you, Minako!”

About: ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My first dog — Lucy, a Border Collie I had when I was 11 back in Shanghai, China — was my best friend for 16 years. Alongside her, I cared for a rescued stray cat "Noji" and an adopted poodle "Bebe" when I was 13, which taught me patience, responsibility, policing different pets, and how to understand different pet personalities. After moving to the U.S. for school, I brought home my baby Corgi "Brioche" in 2020. She’s now a 5-year-old certified service dog who’s friendly, well-trained, and walked three times a day for at least 30 minutes each time. I also helped train and kept a baby Devon Rex cat for my family in 2025. What sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience with pets of different breeds, ages, and temperaments — from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I love fur babies more than anything and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I will be working part time starting summer 2026 in NYC, so my schedule is flexible, I'm available for daily walks, boarding both weekdays and weekends. I live in a 2 bedroom in FiDi close to battery park city. There are no crates and my corgi was never crate-trained. I don't have indoor pet potty so I almost only take my dog out for potty unless the weather is crazy. I have plenty of dog beds and toys.

“Yoon took great care of our little Tate, and sent us regular updates. Most importantly, she is incredibly warm and kind, and Tate took to her immediately!”

“I’m really glad I chose Yutong for daycare with my energetic little poodle. He was very attentive and reliable, asking all the right questions about my dog’s character, sharing photos throughout the day, and keeping me updated on how things were going. My dog came home happy after spending the day with him, and I’ll definitely be coming back!”

Would absolutely recommend Cathy and would love to have her watch Milo again!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and passionate pet sitter with over 10+ years of pet care expertise. I’ve cared for a variety of dog breeds, from playful Golden Doodles and Border Collies to gentle Bulldogs and fluffy Samoyeds, including senior dogs who need extra attention and care. I’m also experienced in administering medications to ensure your pup stays healthy. In addition to dog care, I can provide home sitting, feeding, and companionship for cats, making sure they’re well looked after while you’re away. I can’t wait to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! As someone who is passionate about pets, I make pet care a priority in my daily routine. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or simply spending quality time with your pets, I ensure they get the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to cater to different needs, whether it’s during weekdays or weekends. Whether your dog needs frequent walks or your cat needs companionship, I can easily fit these responsibilities into my week, making sure your pets are happy and well-cared for throughout the day. When it comes to pet care, safety and trust are my top priorities. In both my home and my client’s home, I create a secure and comfortable environment where pets can feel at ease. I follow any specific routines or instructions to ensure their well-being, from feeding schedules to medication needs. Whether it’s securing gates or monitoring playtime, I keep a close eye on pets to prevent accidents and ensure their safety. I treat each pet as if they were my own, building a bond of trust, so both you and your furry friend can feel confident and comfortable.

“Mari is sweet, caring, punctual, easy to work with and took incredible care of my pup. There were so many adorable photos of Cordelia throughout the day and best of all was Mari’s reliability and punctuality that made my drop off and pick up a breeze. I could tell my dog was relaxed and happy spending time with her. Highly recommend Mari as human and pup sitter!”

“Pratik was amazing! I am a first time Rover user and Pratik eased my worries! He accepted our last minute request to puppy sit as we were just in town for the day. Then was so gracious when our puppy, who is house trained had an accident! Pratik walked our sweet boy and sent incredible photos of our pup relaxed and happy! Thank you Pratik, we will call you ahead of our next trip to NYC!”
