“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”


“Cheryle took great care of my little dog Charlie for one week in her home. He seems to have had a great time with her and her small dog. I would definitely ask her to care for Charlie again and would recommend her highly!”


“Maegan accommodated my schedule to pick Hadley up a different day than we originally booked. She left a birthday party just so I could pick up our pup after our trip!”


“We found, met and booked with Stephanie on Rover. We were more than happy with our experience! Stephanie is very responsive and communicated with us frequently with updates and pictures. It made our hearts warmed to see how comfortable and how loved our fur babies were while we were away. Stephanie is and will continue to be our first choice when we are unable to bring our puppers with us.”

He seemed happy and at ease! Thank you will be booking again.”


About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.


“Nia was absolutely incredible. She made Jambi comfortable and was super accommodating especially when my flight back to Albany was delayed. Her home is so accommodating for dogs and Jambi was happy with her. She sent video updates frequently and let me know exactly what he was up to. I was so pleasantly surprised. Highly recommend her.”


“This is my second time leaving my Paris with Ms.Vera. I receive photos and videos throughout her stay, which makes me feel, that my Paris is doing just fine. I always feel that Paris is well taken care of and safe when I'm away. Ms. Vera will be my go to everytime. Thank you Ms.Vera”


“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”


“Chelsea went above & beyond for us. First she agreed to take on our senior dog for an extended stay on relatively short notice. The petsitter who’d agreed to take him backed out when she heard he had a cough, even though it wasn’t kennel cough. She didn’t blink an eye at the fact that he needed small meals 6 times a day due to the medications he was taking. She understood my directions (and it was complicated!). He never has accidents at home but I know he’s had a tendency towards him when boarded & that didn’t phase Chelsea either. Of course she also shared photos of him. You won’t regret leaving your dog with Chelsea, no matter their age (our dog is 15).”


“Lori was amazing and took excellent care of our dog for an overnight stay. We discovered that our dogs had met, walking at Capital Hills and had hit it off right away, so that was an added bonus. But I immediately felt very comfortable and when I dropped Clover off, I truly felt like I was leaving her with a friend. Clover came home clean, happy and exhausted. I can't recommend Lori enough and would absolutely reach out to her again when the need arises. Thank you, Lori!”


“Chris had our two dogs for 10 days and did an amazing job. He sent us plenty of pictures and updates. The dogs looked like they had a lot of fun. I highly recommend anyone to trust their dogs with Chris.”


“Both Serhii & Olesia were both extremely caring of Keeper and followed instructions very carefully so my vacation was stressfree. I highly recommend them for your future needs!”


“Laura was great with our two older dogs! She gave them meds and fed a special diet. Most importantly, she handled their stress reactions to being boarded for the first time with a new person”

“Absolutely thrilled with Cashe's dog bordering services! Professional, friendly, and incredibly attentive to my pet's needs. Cashe was highly responsive to my texts, making the whole experience seamless. My Opal seemed happy and I couldn't have been more at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Highly recommended!”
