“Matthew and Van Jospeh did a wonderful job hosting our dog, Stanley, for a 2 night stay. They were very easy to work with, were flexible, very friendly, and Stanley seemed at ease the moment he met them. Would absolutely use their boarding services again. Thank you!”

“Albina took great care of Abby. This was my very first time leaving her with a sitter and I was a very anxious momma! Albina was patient with me and put my anxiety at ease with ongoing communication, pictures, and videos. I would definitely recommend Albina!”

“Alexandra was a great dog sitter. She provided regular updates and photos via text. Here proactive communication made me feel very comfortable and I will definitely seek her our in the future.”

“Sherry is an AMAZING dog sitter!! I trusted her to care for my sweet but nervous 50lb girl, Ellie, and I could not have asked for a better sitter. Sherry was so thorough, she sent plenty of updates throughout and put me at ease! She was super responsive to my dog’s needs, and I could see Ellie just melting and falling in love with her through the updates. She’s got a lovely, clean and safe apartment and she is obviously someone who knows dogs well. I would trust Sherry with dog sitting ANY day! Highly recommend.”

“Maia was a wonderful sitter - super communicative and caring! She sent multiple updates and photos while we were away and went way above and beyond in making sure Lula had enough exercise and playtime! I highly recommend her!”

“Tony was great to work with. Hes polite and professional. My cat felt safe with him so that was really important and very much appreciated. 100% recommend for cat or dog sitter!”

Serena S.

“Chen is hands down the best sitter! This was our second time booking with him, and we already have a third stay on the calendar. He is incredibly responsive and sends daily updates packed with great photos and videos. It is so easy to see how happy and comfortable my dog is staying with him. Chen takes him on multiple daily walks to the park to keep him active and entertained. I couldn't ask for better peace of mind, highly recommend!”

“Daryl and Andrew were wonderful. They were patient, warm, and very caring with our pup Loki. In addition, they were gracious in enabling us to slightly shift pick up time at the last minute. I would highly recommend them.”

“Danielle took such good care of our dog Simba. He’s an older dog and they did everything they could to make sure he was comfy and happy. They were really good about his meds as well. Simba took to them like they were family, they gave him a lot of pets and love.”

Nancy K.

“Lee took such good care of Daniel on his first overnight with other pups in the house! I wasn’t sure how it was going to go, since Daniel is pretty shy, but Lee was very reassuring and sent lots of updates. I’ll definitely book with her again!”

Melanie W.

“Kani was great with my dog and made sure he was comfortable with the other dogs at her place. I would definitely have my dog stay with her again!”

“Thais and Marlene were great. They took great care of Harry while we were out for 10 days visiting family for the holidays. Thais was very responsive to us and sent photos regularly with updates on how Harry was doing. A great experience overall.”

About: I offer a quieter, more individualized kind of dog sitting. I only take dogs from one household at a time, so your dog won’t be sharing the space with a rotating group of other dogs. That allows me to give them a lot of individual attention and to keep their routine as familiar as possible. I’m a licensed acupuncturist and a therapist in training, so being reliable and observant is a big part of my professional life. I’m also very conscientious about following your instructions closely. I know how much the little details matter, and I make a point of keeping track of feeding schedules, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, and the routines that help your dog feel at home. I have firsthand experience caring for an anxious dog who later developed dementia and physical limitations. Because of that, I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and dogs who are sensitive or easily overwhelmed. I understand how much patience and consistency can matter when a dog needs extra support. I’m especially available on weekends, when I can spend plenty of time with your dog rather than fitting visits around a packed schedule. Depending on their personality and energy level, we might have a quiet day at home, take neighborhood walks, or head out to places like Piedmont Park, the Albany Bulb, or the beach. I want your dog to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, and I want you to feel completely confident that someone is really paying attention to them. Pet care fits best into my schedule on weekends, when I have plenty of time to give dogs attention, walks, companionship, and a relaxed home environment. I’m generally available from Friday evening through Sunday and can often accommodate weekend boarding or daytime care. During the week I work a regular professional schedule, so I’m intentional about only accepting bookings when I know I can provide the time and attention a pet needs. When a dog is staying with me, I want them to be part of my routine rather than squeezed into it. I take safety and trust seriously and make a point of following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment and make sure dogs have appropriate supervision, regular walks and potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I’m careful about feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, and any behavioral or health concerns you share with me. I also like to know about a dog’s personality, triggers, routines, and preferences ahead of time so I can help them feel comfortable and settled. If I’m caring for a pet in your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

“Amazing job! She sent tons of pics of my dog”

Hannah A.

“Thank you Megan & Jenny! I needed to board my dog for one night with short notice and Megan & Jenny were able to board him. They responded quickly to my request and communicated with texts and photos during my dog's stay. My dog looked happy and it seems like he was well cared for. I will be contacting Megan & Jenny again for dog sitting and boarding.”

Gilly C.

“Ruthy was great with my dog Larry. He's developed separation anxiety since moving to the west coast, and she did a great job at being attentive and making him feel comfortable and at home while I was away for a few days. Lots of daily pictures and video updates, which was awesome. Highly recommend! We will definitely be repeat customers.”

Sashi M.

“Nikolai and his wife have a lot of experience watching after all breeds and sizes of dogs. My pup stayed with them along a large group of other pups over the holidays and we had an overall good experience with them. I was happy to know that our pup had plenty of friends to be with during his long stay.”

“Mary took great care of Maggie! She was a very thoughtful host, kept Maggie entertained and active, and sent me lots of pictures. Highly recommend!”

“Mariola provided a kind a loving home for our dogs’ first overnight with her. She also provided us with some useful insights into their behavior. She was a clear and easy communicator throughout the process.”
