“Rue had such a great time with Grace! Everything went smooth and Rue felt right at home. Got plenty of cute updates while we were away, would absolutely leave her with Grace again!”

“Starry & Gio were fantastic! This was our first time leaving Carmela overnight with a Rover, and we were so happy with the level of communication that they provided. We got consistent pictures and updates throughout the day. I’d definitely have Carmela stay with them again!”

“Ayush was wonderful with our dog! He made sure he was comfortable in his house and that he got along with his dogs. Super communicative and sent us plenty of pics! Will definitely book with Ayush again!”

“Sanaz was so great for agreeing to watch Roscoe last minute. She sent update photos and messages every day. He also was in such a happy mood when I went to pick him up. Will definitely be requesting her again in the near future.”

“Willow had the best time!!! They really were so communicative, and helpful and sent so many pictures and updates it was a relief for me! Willow has special needs and they really made sure she was comfortable and put at ease and I can’t wait to use them in the future!! Thank you!”

“Bear had another great stay with Michael, his wife and Bread! Thank you for once again being super responsive and accommodating with drop off/pick up times!”

“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”

“Angela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.”

“Sabrina took wonderful care of my dog. I had to book the boarding last minite, but Sabrina was very accommodating. She responded to my messages quickly and also kept sending me photos of how my dog was doing which gave me peace of mind. When I was picking him up, Sabrina explained in detail how he ate, slept, walked and behaved during the stay. This proved to me that Sabrina paid a lot of attention to my dog. Most dog sitters in my experience didn't share this much detail. I highly recommend Sabrina!”

“Penny had an amazing time staying with Aashika! She sent updates and photos on a daily basis and stuck to Penny’s schedule. Her dog Milo is the sweetest and was a perfect playmate for Penny. I look forward to booking with them again in the future!”

“Pratik & Madhvika took such amazing care of Mango 🐶💛 From the get-go, they were super easy to talk to, patient with all my (many!) questions, and even invited me over for a meet & greet so I could see where Mango would be staying—which I really appreciated. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and informed, even when they didn’t have to. During his stay, I got timely updates and pictures, which honestly made me feel so at ease. Mango came back happy, clean, and tired. Would 100% recommend them and will definitely be booking again. Thank you both for taking such good care of my baby 🐾💛”

“Rochelle is such a kind and warm-hearted person! My cats are on the anxious side and they warmed up to her quickly. I definitely would recommend and book with her again soon!”

“Kira and her family welcomed our dog, Sylvie, over the Thanksgiving holiday. It was clear Sylvie was having a great time and was well cared for during her visit— Kira was responsive and shared updates throughout the day. Sylvie was sad to leave her new playmates and we will definitely reach out to Kira the next time we need dog sitting help! Thank you!”

“Kecia is so wonderful and took such great care of my pup, Luna! She is communicative, kind, and attentive. Would absolutely use her again and will reco her to anyone who needs a sitter”

“Eduardo was awesome, our dogs didn’t want leave. Took care of our pups, super responsive. The home was clean, and we received updates daily. We will definitely use Eduardo again.”
“Yushan and Sam are animal lovers who made space in their home and hearts for our cat and dog this weekend. From the many pictures they sent during the stay, it looks like our pets were very comfortable and got along great with Yushan and Sam's. Would recommend for an accommodating and compassionate boarding experience for your pets.”


“André had a great time staying with the Minako family over the weekend. Minako was very responsive in communication and flexible in terms of pick-up/drop-off schedules. Our train back to the city was delayed and Minako was so kind to rearrange the pickup time. André got a free toy gift from Minako at the end of his stay. I highly recommend Minako for your pup(s)!”

“Kris and Kylie were absolutely incredible with Rue! During her 9 days with them, they made sure she got plenty of exercise with long daily walks and playtime at the park, and even a fun adventure upstate. They treated her to a spa day at the end of her stay, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was obvious how much care, attention, and love they gave her. We can’t recommend them enough and would trust them with Rue again in a heartbeat!”

I have nothing but kind and amazing words to say about Wai Pou and her family. As Miya, my dog, has anxiety at times from meeting new people, Wai Pou, Victor, and the kids made her feel right at home. With around the clock care, she was able to receive so much attention from the family. I have never met such a family that has had great patience and love for my dog since I’ve moved to the city and have always worried about who can provide such quality care and effort for my Velcro pet baby. However, I can confidently say that Wai Pou has the qualities that any pet parent is looking for to provide exceptional skills to watch your pet baby whether it being short or long term. Thank you, again Wai Pou, Victor, and the kids for providing my dog the love and attention while I was away.

I had to find someone to watch my dog overnight on short notice, and I’m so glad I found Eduardo! He was incredibly friendly, communicative, and took great care of her. I really appreciated that he introduced her to the other dogs gradually instead of all at once, which helped her feel more comfortable. He even let her sleep with him, so I knew she was getting lots of attention and wasn’t stressed being away from home. I would absolutely trust him with my dog again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

Thank you Maria for taking such great care of my dog on such short notice! Bailey had a wonderful stay with you and was so happy to meet his new twin. He even learned how to wear shoes! It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We truly appreciate everything you did.
Jocelyn was great with our little Italian greyhound Lily. She met with us before hand the stay and even picked up and dropped off Lily. She was easy to communicate with, caring and sent regular updates with photos and videos. I hope to have her watch Lily again!

Yulia was awesome!! She was very responsive. Quick replies and was very accommodating to all my requests. She sent pictures to ensure my pup was well taken care of. She also dropped off her back to my residence as agreed upon with no problem. I will definitely use Yulia again. Thank you 🙏!

Grace is the absolute best sitter in Jersey City! She has always gone above and beyond while treating my guy, Marshall, like her own. She is kind, thoughtful, and keeps you updated with tons of photos and videos while you are away. Grace is the only sitter I would consider in the future.

Starry and Gio were great! I left my puppy with them for a day and everything went well :) they were always very responsive and understanding about my dog's needs (which were many given he's a small puppy). They sent multiple pictures to make sure I was tranquil I would leave Buddy with them again!

Leaving my dog with someone new for the first time was something I was incredibly nervous about, but Saldin made me feel comfortable from our very first interaction. As a dog mom, I wanted someone who would care for my baby the way I do, and she exceeded every expectation. She cared for my dog for four days and kept me updated the entire time. She sent so many pictures and videos, along with regular updates about my dog's behavior, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seeing videos of my dog giving her kisses and having such a great time reassured me that my pup felt safe, happy, and loved. One thing that really stood out to me is how genuinely caring Saldin is. When she talks about the dogs she's cared for, she refers to each one by their name instead of just saying "the dog." She remembers them and treats each one as her own family which speaks volumes about how much she truly loves and connects with the pets in her care. She also made sure my dog got plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. Saldin is incredibly sweet, communicative, thoughtful, and reassuring. I never had to wonder how my baby was doing because she always kept me informed. I can't recommend Saldin enough! If you're looking for someone who will treat your baby like family and give you complete peace of mind while you're away, she's the one!!!!
