Pet Boarding Cortlandt Manor

“Jomini and her family took wonderful care of our sometimes anxious little dachshund mix. She sent us pictures and updates every day. I recommend her and wound use her again to host our dog”

About: I’ve been a dog owner and dedicated dog caregiver for over 20 years, and caring for dogs has always been a huge part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including large and strong breeds such as Akitas, German Shepherds, and other high-energy breeds. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, ages, energy levels, and needs, and I understand how important it is to make each dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re away from their family. I also volunteer with Guiding Eyes for the Blind, helping with their puppy training program. As part of the program, I have the opportunity to welcome a future guide dog puppy into my home for several days at a time and help with their training, socialization, routines, and everyday experiences. This has given me additional experience with consistency, positive reinforcement, following specific care instructions, and helping dogs build confidence in new environments. Whether your dog needs lots of playtime and exercise, some extra cuddles, structured routines, or simply a calm and loving place to relax, I’m happy to provide individualized care based on what works best for them. My goal is for every dog in my care to feel like they’re right at home! I work full-time, but my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m available for morning walks before work, evenings after 7 PM, and anytime on weekends. I’m also available for overnight care and boarding. I have years of experience caring for dogs and currently care for two dogs as part of my full-time childcare position. I’ve also had dogs of my own in the past. I live in a very pet-friendly apartment community with beautiful walking trails and plenty of places to explore. I’ll provide your dog with a safe, loving, comfortable environment, along with plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and care instructions so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away.

“Yasmeen is great! I appreciate that she was open to taking my dog on short notice. She was very patient with my anxious pup and made her feel comfortable. Yasmeen sent me regular pictures and updates, which made me feel comfortable. She even sent us home with a new toy!”

“Alexis was fabulous when we boarded our two dogs with her for four nights! She was communicative and extremely flexible when we had to change our drop off time. Our dogs seem happy and healthy. They were both really tired when we got them to our hotel so I think they must've played a lot. Highly recommend!”

“Stephanie was so great with Sarge! She was excellent at communicating with us, and he was in such a good mood when he got back it was clear he had a great time with her!”

“My dog didn’t want to come home after staying with Crystal and has pouted since I brought him home. He clearly had a blast. I read the positive reviews when booking, and I’m glad I listened to everyone. Highlights- great communication, loved my dog as her own, gave me complete peace of mind while I traveled. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to trust to watch my best friend.”

“Dew was wonderful! Our sweet girl can be nervous and uneasy in new situations and Dew was endlessly patient and warm putting her at ease while she was staying with her. Dew sent pictures adn updates to keep us in the loop and was super quick in responding to any questions we had! I would absolutely recommend her and hope to have her pet sit Sankaty for us again!”

About: I’ve had a passion for dogs since I was young, and that love has only grown over the years. I recently spent a summer in Alaska working as a sled dog handler, caring for 35 Alaskan Huskies, which taught me so much about dedication, patience, and the unique personalities of dogs. Since then, I’ve had the joy of dog sitting all over the world, where I’ve used Rover all over, dog sitting in New Zealand, and most recently Austria for a year. I’ve gained experience with all kinds of breeds and temperaments. Whether it’s playing, going for a walk around the neighborhood, or just hanging out and giving some extra love, I’m always happy to spend quality time with dogs. I look forward to caring for your pup as if they were my own! I am currently free anytime of the day as I have plenty of time on my hands, especially on weekdays. I’m around anytime of the day through 2026. I do not have a fenced in yard so I could not bring dogs to my home if that matters. I am very active so I would be happy to take dogs on walks/runs as I spend a lot of my time outside.

“Joe was very attentive and loving to my dog, who stayed for boarding. He is easy to work with and communicates often. I highly recommend!”

“Kristine took amazing care of our dog for the week. Great communication and super accommodating to our fluid schedule. She was a fantastic sitter for our dog and I’d definitely recommend her.”

Emily S.

“Amazing people and so kind! The back yard is a perfect playground as well! My babies had an incedibly fun and safe time with Debbie. Super duper!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was born. I grew up walking, feeding, bathing, and loving my first two dogs—a Chocolate Lab and a giant Weimaraner. Since those two, my pet family expanded to a Yellow Lab, a rescue mutt (Australian Kelpie), a Hound mix, an Australian Shepherd-Pitbull mix, a Great Dane, a Pomeranian, a three-legged rescue dog, three horses, five goats, two pigs, three mini horses, and a cat. Throughout my life, I’ve helped to take care of each and every pet that we’ve had. While it’s not always easy, I love every second of it. I am home from college for the summer (May-August), so I will be very flexible and available to help out you and your pets :) I will always make sure your fur baby is happy, healthy, and comfortable. In my care, your pet will always be my top priority. I will never take any job that I cannot 100% commit to.

“I had a fantastic experience with Samantha! She took excellent care of my dog and went above and beyond to keep me updated with regular messages and adorable pictures throughout the day. It really put my mind at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Samantha was also very easy to communicate with, accommodating, and professional from start to finish. I highly recommend her to any dog owner looking for a reliable, trustworthy sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

Danny L.

“Danny’s the ideal sitter. Efficient communication, nice updates, and most importantly my pup came back happy, healthy, and tired! Will definitely use his services again”

Akshay G.

“Communication: Eddy and his family were very great in communication. I was getting pictures and videos of my pet, Copper, almost daily. When I texted about Copper, I got responses on the same day every time. Attention: Eddy and his family were very great in attention. Copper was fed and walked according to my instructions. In each video and picture, Copper looked happy and healthy. I will rebook with Eddy and his family again in the future.”

“Michael was exceptional with Prince YoYo. It was my first time being away from him and he made me feel comfortable. YoYo was treated like the prince he is. I received multiple pics/video updates daily of their activities, which let me know I made the right decision. When it was time to pick up Prince YoYo I know for sure he was treated well because he was jumping and chasing after Michael. If I need to leave my dog in great hands again, it will for sure be Michael.”

Joy B.

“Great host. Has an outdoor fenced in area, very easy to communicate with, no issues handling medications or other specific needs - all in all a great dog sitter. Thank you so much.”

Randolph R.

“Moca had a BLAST at the doggie sleepover! Large clean house with lots of space inside and out. Just a great vibe from a bunch of sweet dogs. We will be back!”

Dan R.

“We are very happy to ask Maureen for our Chamonix. Maureen was waiting for us in front of her house to do a first meeting before sitting. She’s very reliable and responsible. She kindly updated how Chamonix’s doing through her stay. We will definitely return to her if we needs someone next time.”

Natsuko N.

“Erika was great with our dog! She was giving us updates all the time and my pup seemed very comfortable with her! We will definitely reach out to her again!”
