“I am very glad to leave Masha with you ,Ms.Ajanay. She was very nice and responded me ASAP with any questions and posted pics and video of Masha .. She is reliable, efficient and truly cares about your pet.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Ivelisse! She took such amazing care of Omen while I was away. She was kind, patient, and genuinely loved animals. She was so attentive to his needs, gave him lots of love and playtime, and even went out of her way to feed him when he ran out of food, something I truly appreciated. I felt completely at peace knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and caring with pets!”

“Angela took very good care of our pup and reached out often with photos. I really appreciated getting the pictures throughout the day! Highly recommend!”
“Steven was so great to handle our last minute holiday request for boarding. Pretzel had so much fun playing with their dogs and he looked right at home.”
“Lauren was wonderful! My Oliver was a very recent rescue and is an extremely anxious dog. When I had to leave him for three nights for a work trip after I’d only had him for a few weeks, I was really worried about how he would do. Happily, all of my worrying was for nothing—he did great! Lauren was very patient with him, and he immediately felt comfortable with her. She understood his need for a calm environment and gave him exactly what he needed. She also sent numerous photos/updates, understanding my concern about having to leave him. I’ll definitely book her again the next time I need to go away.”
“We could not have asked for a better experience. Kimberly is conscientious and communicative and we felt very confident about leaving Murphy with her from the start. We were away for three days and 2 nights, and Kimberly sent us regular updates and great photos of our pup. Murphy seemed very comfortable with her, and I’m sure he loved to explore in her big fenced-in yard. We are thrilled to find such a wonderful sitter, and we will definitely seek Kimberly’s great care for Murphy the next time we go away!”
About: I've fed dogs based off their schedules that their owner informs me, walks with them, sometimes runs so they can get some more exercise. I am not a trainer, but I will give them attention and I love to follow the rules. I work full time in New York, so my availability can vary. I'm looking for a flexible schedule, sometimes can be steady in the weekday, depending on the month. I have a townhouse in Mill Hill area, and a park which is at the end of the block. I live by myself so I do not have housemates. I do not have a large yard, but I do dog sit for my best friend in New York at least once every other month.
“Tarisa and her kids are the best. They took care of merlin like he was their own. Their boy atticus was the best buddy my merlin had. I was very scared at the beginning since I don’t know how he’ll react to other dogs but tarisa and her family made him feel like it’s a safe space for him to be himself. They give us updates on how they he was doing while he was there and my baby boy enjoyed himself. Highly recommended. Will definitely rebook 😊♥️”
“My boys truly have a 2nd home with Monica! When your pets come home happy and jump right back into their regular routine it’s a tail, tell sign that they were loved and cared for they way you would! We had an almost 3 hour delay due to luggage. She was amazing with communication and flexible! That meant more than she knows!”
“I can’t recommend Jackie highly enough. My 12 year old Maltese stayed with her for the first time and had a bit of a nervous belly. Jackie handled it graciously and with kindness despite needing to clean him up and settle him down. He came home a happy boy and I’m very appreciative. It’s clear that Jackie loves dogs and that they are well cared for when staying with her.”
“First time using Rover and I was very nervous to leave my baby Stella with just anyone. I knew the minute I met Jessica and my Stella felt at ease with her that it was the right place. I was able to go out of the Country for 13 days and was at ease knowing my girl was being well cared for. Jessica took excellent care of my girl and sent me daily updates and photos and videos. I highly would recommend and would use Jessica again should I ever need someone to care for my baby girl.”
“Kristen was wonderful! You can tell right off the bat how much she loves and knows dogs. I felt 100% comfortable leaving my pup in her care. She’s extremely responsive and sends pics and videos. My dog had a lot of fun playing with her dog Cashew and her adorable son. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kristen in the future!”
“Chris and Joe welcomed Jameson so warmly and with lots of love. He got a walk every day and played outside, and even got to meet some grandkids. I couldn't be happier to have found Chris. I know Jameson felt loved on!”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“Rachel is a sweet, responsible and caring sitter. She sent photos of Winnie enjoying her stay. I would not hesitate to rebook as needed.”
“Kyla was wonderful with my 13 year old (still-vivacious) husky mix. During our meet & greet Kyla asked detailed questions about Juneau’s schedule, diet, habits and daily care. She was delightful & easy-going, knowledgeable and experienced with dogs. Juneau took to her right away and I know she had a comfortable and fun stay!”

Norman G.
“Norman has watched my pet King (Male pug) for a few years now (on & off) and he not only shows him love but care as well. He gives him the same attention and kindness I do as his owner. He consistently checks in with me with photos, pictures and phone conversations to ease my unnecessary worry along with adhering to any and all rules I set forth for King. I wouldn't trust my beloved pet with anyone more loving and trustworthy than Norman!”
