“Noelle and her fam are THE BEST. My lil guy is a high energy, very sassy mini poodle, and they reassured me he’d be fine. And he was! They sent constant updates, and even a video of him dancing with her husband lol. Chili had an amazing time with his friends. We found our permanent sitter!!!! Thank you guys again 🫶🏻”
“Jose and his family were wonderful and treated Louis like their own. Louis is typically shy at first but from the pics Jose sent me, it seemed like Louis was very comfortable and enjoyed time with Jose and his family. I would definitely bring Louis back to Jose for pet sitting.”
“Natalia was an incredible dog sitter for our dog Tino. She always sent updates and pictures throughout the whole week . I could tell my dog enjoyed her company so much !! I definitely recommend her and will be using her for our next trip! Thanks so much Natalia !!”
“This is the second time our dog Charlie has stayed with Tynesha and her family. They take great care of him, give him lots of love, share photos throughout the time we are away. In addition to walks, there is a nice big fenced back yard where he can run. If you have to be away, you really could not ask for more.”
“Stacia was unbelievable with my 12 week old puppy . She sent me so many updates of my boy and took such great care of him during his stay. I will 100% use stacia in the future . My pup was so happy.”
About: I have extensive experience with taking care of cats and dogs as I have always had animals in my home. Currently I have two cats and three turtles. I also work for an animal food pantry where we provide free pet food to senior citizens and low income families. I also take care of multiple cat colonies near my home and have built shelters for them! I currently am working 4 days in person in New York City but am free Thursday afternoon, all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. This will be changing in August and I will be available all day Wednesday, Thursday and the weekend! I have a fenced yard and a pool if your dog likes to go swimming! I also have a fenced dog park near my home where I can take them if they are friendly with other dogs. My cats are very friendly but if needed I can separate them as I have the space in my home to do so!

I provide reliable, loving care, ensuring your furry friend stays happy, safe, and well-exercised. Let’s chat about how I can make your time apart stress-free for both you and your pup!

I have a fenced yard and 1 very friendly dog to keep your pup company. I provide food, water, lots of fun toys, and tasty treats!! 😁
“Yvette took care of our dog who normally gets very sad when we leave her and had a great stay with Yvette!! Yvette sent us plenty of pics and updates and videos during the 3 weeks she stayed with her and it was so nice to constantly be in touch. Our dog adjusted extremely quickly and I know all of her needs were met and then some. Yvette goes the extra mile to ensure great care and you can tell she really has the dog's best interest always in mind. I cannot recommend highly enough!!”
“Mica (my dog) had a great time at Jacqueline's! After Mica & I first met Jacqueline, I was 100% confident that Mica would be in good hands. Jacqueline was very tuned in to how Mica was doing. And she was careful about introducing Mica to other dogs. All in all, a great experience.”
“I had a really great experience boarding Leo at Bhavani’s home! From the moment I sent her a request for boarding, I felt completely at ease. Bhavani has a calm, nurturing energy and a true love for animals that shows in everything she does. Her home is set up perfectly for dogs—safe, clean, and full of cozy spots and open space for play. It’s such a comforting alternative to a traditional kennel. My dog settled in quickly and was treated like a part of her family the entire time. What really stood out was the personal attention Bhavani gave. She took the time to understand my dog’s routines and personality, and she kept me updated with sweet messages and photos during the stay. It meant the world to know he was not only well cared for, but also genuinely loved. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so grateful we found Bhavani and wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in her care again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a home-based, heart-centered boarding experience!”
“Had the pleasure of booking my cat's (Barbie) stay with Jia C. for the first time. Jia was amazing, kind and her care was beyond exceptional. We really appreciated how Jia made sure to send us updates on how Barbie was doing, and was prompt with her responses. She was even accommodating and flexible to our needs. Jia allowed us to have a stress free vacation, knowing our cat was in good hands. Thank you so much and we hope to book her again sometime in the future. 😊”
“Jonathan and Rebecca, you are truly amazing my puppies 🐶 we’re so happy we kept communication at all times, you kept me informed and I felt so comfortable for the first time living my 3 months puppies with you’ll ! They enjoyed so much been with your dogs, and cat 🐈⬛!! lol 🤣!!! I know how had it is to care for puppies and you guys nailed it !!!! Thank you so much !!!!!”
“Rupali was fantastic! She sent so many pictures and videos of my dog and was in constant communication with me. She gave us updates on when he ate his food as well. She also had such a sweet dog and a big backyard for the dogs to run around in. We already have plans to use Rupali as a sitter again!!”
“Dhruvit was great he accommodated me with a last min booking when I got called into work helping me out tremendously. He provided me with updates and pictures it was clear Zoro was well taken care of. I will definitely use him again to watch my pup.”
“Janice took really good care of my Bailey! She sent lots of pictures and updates everyday! My dog was so happy when I got him back, looks like he had a lot of fun. I will definitely choose Janice again as a sitter for Bailey!”
“This was my first time using the service although I've been a member for almost six months now. I had to go out of town for 8 days and I had no idea who was going to watch my very adorable Yorkie Poodle. I called into the service and gave them very specific requests that my dog needed in a sitter and I must say that they truly delivered. I was given 3 options and I choose Jennifer L. She was truly a Godsend to me and my dog Max. Her response time is extremely quick, she's flexible, she's super loving and sweet. I knew after our initial conversation that Max would be left in GREAT hands and that made me feel better knowing that he'll be OK in her care. I would also like to say that my dog doesn't warm up to strangers or new environments easily. Jennifer L. or as I like to call her (The Dog Whisper) had my dog eating out the palm of her hands both figuratively and literally once they immediately met. She sent me videos of them lounging, playing and traveling around town. I will say it once twice a million times this woman is the BEST!!! U WILL NOT REGRET USING JENNIFER L. ONE BIT. In fact I'm going to use her services EVERY opportunity that I can...that's how much Max and I love her...lol!!!!”
About: My experience with pets stems from growing around them. It was my responsibility to make sure they were upkept. This is why it feels natural for me to include them in my life. I'm currently working from home and would like some pets in the house while I work for emotional support. I treat animals very well and they naturally love my energy. I live in a safe and secure location that is pet friendly. We also have a dog park and plenty of space to take care of your pet.

Not only does she provide exceptional care to her own two pets—ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well-loved—but she also goes out of her way to look after the stray cats in the neighborhood. Whether it's leaving out food and clean water, building makeshift shelters during colder months, or simply taking the time to earn their trust, Leah treats every animal with the same level of kindness and respect. It's clear that caring for animals isn't just something she does—it's who she is. Anyone would be lucky to have her looking after their pets.”

Jaelyn H.
“Jaelyn goes above and beyond as a responsible, devoted pet carer. She makes sure pets are fed properly, exercised, and treated with patience and kindness because she pays close attention to every little detail. She is naturally adept at establishing trust and being a reassuring presence because of her gentle disposition and sincere love for animals. Because of Jaelyn's dependability and commitment, pet owners can rest easy knowing their animals are in capable and compassionate hands. To anyone searching for a trustworthy and caring pet care provider, I heartily recommend her.”

Courtney & Sherwood L. The best sitters EVER! It can be tough to trust your pet to anyone you’re just meeting but Courtney & Sherwood L. and family, took amazing care of my dog and he came home happy and well cared for. Can’t thank them enough! I will use them again and again. I highly recommend them!
We don’t often use a pet sitter, but of the services we’ve tried, Katie was by far the best. She took wonderful care of our dog, Eve, while we were away for two weeks. Katie kept us updated regularly, responded promptly to any questions, and even sent us great photos of Eve enjoying her own little “vacation” at her house. Thank you so much, Katie, for your outstanding service—we look forward to working with you again the next time we travel!
Thank you so much Marissa for making Smores feel At home the best way you could , tho his anxiety took over his personality you were so patient with him that he was a bit better towards the end of his stay with you . Thank you again also with your guidance and professionalism throughout your service, along with great communication. Truly appreciate you ❤️
Jeanine is a great sitter and communicates really well . Our Neo came home very happy. We had to modify our booking due to disruption in our plan and Jeanine was so kind to understand and accommodate our request. I would definitely choose Jeanine next time we need a sitter for Neo.
