“We always trust Danae first with our dog. She is excellent with communication and our dog always seems very happy every time he sees her. Highly recommend Danae!”
“Jocelyn takes great care of hammy every time! She sends photos of him and always keeps me updated on how he is doing. She also gave him a bath for me as well which was very helpful!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Anat. Our dog was treated like one of the family. It’s clear that she has a true passion for dogs, and the fact that she has her own dog made us feel so confident. We also appreciated all the updates - it was clear Max was having a great time!”
“Nina and Augustine cared for our beloved pup as if she was their own. She’s usually very sensitive and high maintenance so we were anxious to leave her, but within hours were receiving photos of her happily curled up on Nina’s lap! Also very accommodating of our schedule, and were kindly able to adjust to a last minute request to shift dates with no issue. So great!”
“Sunny was a wonderful dog sitter! She was friendly and attentive. She made our family feel comfortable leaving our 15 year old dog when we were away on vacation. She communicated daily sending updates and pictures. We can tell Caesar had a great time. Thank you Sunny for taking such good care of our dog. We will definitely use Sunny again in the future!”
“Juan was the best sitter! He shared pictures and I knew Kong really enjoyed himself while we were out of town. I felt safe leaving Kong with Juan as he assured me he will be well taken care of. I can’t thank him enough!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I grew up on a farm where we had around ten dogs at a time, so I learned early on how to understand their needs, personalities, and how to make them feel safe and loved. From playful puppies to older dogs, I know how to handle each one with patience, care, and respect. Your dog will be treated like family, with the same attention and affection I’ve always given to my own. During the week, I’m usually available to care for dogs in the mornings. If you need care on the weekend, I kindly ask for a few days’ notice, as I sometimes have plans or may be out. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your needs and make sure your pup gets the attention they deserve! I have a spacious yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, though it’s not fenced, so I always keep them safe by walking them on a leash either in the yard or around my quiet neighborhood. I also have a small, friendly dog who gets along well with others, so your pup will have a gentle companion during their stay. I always make sure dogs are comfortable, safe, and well cared for—whether we’re out for a walk or relaxing at home.
“We felt so happy we decided to leave our dog with Yuri. We got picture and video updates regularly, and Pepper clearly felt very comfortable. Thank you!”
“Charmaine took a very good care of Teddy. She sent photos of him every day and shared what he was doing. Teddy looked happy and well cared for. I'd use Charmaine again. Thank you”
“We trusted Rafaelina with our Shih Tzu Skoshi for a week while traveling quite far away. Communication was great, everything went smoothly, and Skoshi was in good spirits. Even cleaned all the bowls--great attention to detail. Thank you very much!”
“Lucy was absolutely amazing! My basset hound puppy had the best time. She took him on lots of walks! Lucy sent pictures and videos throughout the duration of his stay which made me feel at ease that he was having a good time! I will be using Lucy from now on when I need a dog sitter or go out of town. She was absolutely wonderful! Thank you for taking good care of our fur baby!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Andrew while he watched my dog for the week. Andrew truly cares about the dogs he looks after. He was very considerate of our dog’s needs and extremely responsible throughout her stay. She got in plenty of walking time, which she loves. It was great to hear how well she got along with his dogs and he sent picture everyday and kept us informed of her experience. It made me feel more at ease knowing she was in such a comfortable and friendly environment. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again.”
“This was an amazing experience! Our dog Max is very hyper and loves the attention of people. Lorezno assured he would take good care of our pup. While Max does enjoy playing with other dogs its great knowing Lorenzo only boards one dog at a time. Pictures were provided of the boarding space as well as daily updates. Great environment for boarding as well as a lovely neighborhood”
“Maureen was very attentive to Harley, sending updates and photos daily. Harley is a sensitive dog and didn't want to eat at first, but after Maureen's tender loving care, eventually started eating. Harley seems even more cuddlier than before the stay, which tells me she built some good human animal bond habits. Thanks Maureen!”
“Our dog stayed with Janna and her family this weekend and had the best time! They were so caring, sent so many pictures of Olive having the best time, and made us feel so comfortable leaving Olive while we were away. We are so excited for Olive to stay with Janna and her family again soon!”
“Sophie is great with great supporting cast of plenty of dog friends for mine to play with.”
“Tracy is a lifesaver! Me and my family came to NYC for a weekend away and our pups were crying in our airbnb, disturbing other tenants. I contacted Tracy last minute and he really saved the day. He was quick, compassionate and knew exactly what to ask to ensure our pups would have a good day away. He has an amazing back yard for running and took our dogs on a walk, even when it was icy out. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dogs. He was flexible and very polite. I would trust him to watch them any time. Rambo is the cutest little dog ever and I trusted Tracy to ensure to keep the peace between the three of them. Thank you so much Tracy, Roma and Fred definitely enjoyed their time!”
“Rio was well taken care of during his first ever stay with anyone other than family! Grace was so accommodating and sent lots of daily photos!”
“Belkys was an absolute pleasure to work with. She went the extra mile in every regard and made our dog, Ava, feel so loved and cared for while we were away. I look forward to working with Belkys again!”
“Brut and I have the Best Dog Sitter. Doreen, is very special person. I used to think Brut was her favorite but then I saw how she treats all the other dogs who are at her house. She make every dog and parent feel they are the special one. Brut and I love her. She takes such great care of Brut and he is always happy to see her. See you soon. Anne & Brut”
