“Hakan was responsive throughout the dog watching period and sent many photos of our dog handing out at his house, walking, and playing. We also got periodic updates about our dogs meal times, walks, etc. It felt like our dog was in good hands the entire time. We will use Hakan again for our dog watching needs.”



“Amazing pet sitter! You could easily tell the whole family love dogs so much that your fur baby would absolutely get their attention and care. The professionalism is exceptional too, she would walk through every detail with you before boarding to make sure your puppy get all the care she/he needs. Will definitely book again!”



“Suna and her husband were absolutely amazing! They provided top-notch care for my little fur baby girl. Suna kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, putting my mind at ease while I was away. My girl looked incredibly happy and relaxed in their care. She especially loved playing with their adorable fur baby, Mimi! My kids were thrilled watching the videos Suna sent during our trip. I highly recommend Suna to anyone seeking a caring and loving sitter for their fur baby.”


About: Hi, I’m Britney. I’m a trustworthy, reliable, and experienced dog-sitter. I’ve had the joy of caring for and raising my roommates’ whippet, Hushy, from a playful puppy to a spirited teenager, learning the ins and outs of his unique needs and personality. From daily walks and playtime to providing a calming presence during snuggles, I ensure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved under my care. Whether it’s high-energy dogs that need plenty of exercise or mellow companions who love lounging, I tailor my care to suit each dog’s unique personality. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and reliable—I’ll treat your furry friend as if they’re my own! I look forward to meeting you and your pup. Let’s make their tail wag together! I am currently a software engineer in NYC. I work from home 2 days a week and am generally free on the weekends. I tend to leave work around 5/6, so I am able to carry out duties after work in the evenings. When caring for pets, my top priority is ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved, whether in my home or yours. Here’s what you can expect: • I follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable, including feeding schedules, walks, and playtime. • I ensure your pet feels secure in their environment, offering plenty of affection, enrichment, and attention. • I send regular updates with photos and messages so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. • I keep the home tidy, respecting your space while caring for your pet. • My home is pet-friendly, with safe spaces for lounging, playing, and exploring. • I provide plenty of exercise, whether it’s backyard play or outdoor adventures. • I maintain a calm and clean environment, ensuring your pet feels at ease and stress-free. • I create a tailored care plan for each pet to meet their unique needs and preferences. Your pet will always receive personalized care, lots of love, and attention to every detail—because they deserve nothing less!

About: My happy high Labrador retriever for 4 years, keeps me active. That sums up my experience with dogs…ha ha! Have managed beagles to husky at my place, and my Kaju (black lab) is a great help too in that. I am working from home professional, and love sharing office meetings with my furry kid. Playing outside with him and keeping myself active is perfect in our setting. My newly installed fenced backyard is a happy place for our Kaju. He is playful homely Labrador who looks big but such a friendly and sweet guy.


“Nams has a calmed demeanor that instantly connects with pets. Snowy immediately knew she was in a safe and friendly environment. Very professional. I would definitely recommend her.”


“Renee was an amazing dog sitter. We were very nervous about dropping our dog off for someone strange to watch ber. Mopsy was treated as a person and not a dog. Renee left wonderful detail messages and sent pictures. We were comforted that our Mopsy was being loved. I highly recommend Renee!!!”


“Used Savi for the first time with Bo and have to say that it was a very pleasant experience. Bo was very well looked after and she was extra vigilant because he was feeling anxious being away from home. Sent us videos and pictures frequently! Savi and her whole family went out of their way to make Boey feel loved and at home. Thank you again Savi!”


“Anna & Zilin are great They updated and sent pictures through out the day and evening. This made me feel extremely comfortable and I was able to share pictures with my children. I highly recommend and will use them again and again. Joe”


“Nicolas was fantastic! My dog Duma can be a little reactive and anxious so I was a bit nervous leaving him with a new person. Nicolas took such good care of Duma and you can tell how genuinely passionate he is about caring for dogs. He was super responsive and sent lots of updates, highly recommend Nicolas as a sitter”



“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”


“Carly and her family were attentive foster parents for our two higher-maintenance rescue pups. Easy initial meeting, great home with expansive backyard for the dogs to play, friendly family dog. Responsive to messages and shared great photos while we were away. Will use them again!”


“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SITTER!!! Mary is the most reliable, responsible, and caring sitter out there! She took care of our special needs dog for over a week while we were on vacation and she expertly took care of his every need perfectly. Our dog was happy and healthy upon our return, and that's not an easy task when it comes to our dog. When we've gone away in the past, it took us weeks to get our dog back "on track" with his health, but not with Mary - it was like we never left! I never had to worry while I was away - I knew he was in great hands. He had lots of walks, affection, playtime, and belly rubs. He was so calm and happy upon my return, and was clearly attached to Mary and Kyle - they have such a warm and caring demeanor. Communication was excellent. I can't say enough positive things about Mary's care for our dog!”


“Kate did an amazing job taking care of my baby kitten, Bella! She provided frequent updates, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear my kitten was in great hands. Her care and attention to detail were exceptional, and I truly appreciated her reassurance throughout. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


“We left Keenu with Noria for the whole day. And he loved it. She was very nice and accommodative of my timings (as it was a work day). Her loads of pics and videos about Keenu’s well being were well appreciated throughout the day. We will definitely reach out again to her for our next dog sitting need. Thank you !”


“Jaya was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! We had a situation that required a last minute booking and she was very accommodating. She and her family loved on our two pups, a bernese and a siberian huskey, as if they were their own. They even got out huskey to eat which is always tricky when he's not with us. They added fun veggies to their food and kept me updated with many photos and texts throughout the stay. I will definitely have our fur babies stay with Jaya again and I highly recommend her to everyone!”


About: I've loved dogs since I was little and have always had a strong connection with them. I’ve been caring for dogs for years, including my own pup who I’ve raised and trained for the past 5 years. I also have experience training my friends’ dogs and caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I’m familiar with many breeds and understand their unique behaviors and needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a calm senior, I know how to keep them happy, safe, and loved! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I have a flexible schedule and love spending my free time with animals. Whether it’s early morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening check-ins, I can easily make time for your pet’s needs. Taking care of dogs isn’t just a task—it’s something I genuinely enjoy doing every day! I treat every dog like family! At home, I walk my dog, feed him, play with him, and give him treats—and I’ll do the same for yours. I’m very in tune with dogs and can usually tell when they need something. My home is clean, safe, and dog-friendly, with plenty of toys to keep your pup happy. I’ll make sure your dog gets regular walks, and if you’re comfortable with it, they can enjoy playtime in my secure backyard too. I’ll always follow any special care instructions to keep your dog safe, happy, and loved!

“Anne was very accommodating and provided lots of care for my pup! She made sure to send photos and a video or two. I felt safe in Anna's care and supervision. I would definitely recommend her and her home for anyone looking for care”

Harshika M.
“I’m her aunt, and she took care of my medium-sized dog for two weeks—before she even had a dog of her own. Her parents wanted to see if she was responsible enough, and she proved it without a doubt. I personally saw how patient and caring she was with my dog, and once her own pup arrived, she handled everything so well right from the start. My dog and hers get along so well now, and he always gets so excited to see her. She plays with him, keeps him happy, and is so gentle and loving. I completely trust her with any dog!”


Anne J.

“Anne was very accommodating and provided lots of care for my pup! She made sure to send photos and a video or two. I felt safe in Anna's care and supervision. I would definitely recommend her and her home for anyone looking for care”
