“Jazz had a great time with Catherine! She was so happy when I picked up her up and I appreciated that Catherine sent pictures and updates throughout the day!”

“It was Zuni’s first daycare time with Robert. She came back happy and relaxed (and seems like she made new friends). He sent photos regularly. It was great first day! Highly recommend Robert.”

“Diana was great and so patient with my dog. My dog was very nervous and didn't want to go with her but she was so kind and loving, she went with her. She spent the whole day with her and kept me updated throughout the day. I would highly recommend her. In fact, my dog is going back two more days this week to Diana.”

About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was six years old, growing up with pets back home in Guatemala. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs—big, small, playful, and shy—and I’ve gained experience with everything from daily walks to giving medication. I currently don’t have pets of my own, which means I can give your dog my full attention. You can expect lots of walks, playtime, love, and regular photo and video updates. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment and I’m home all the time, so overnight care is never a problem. I’m here to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home! I work part-time in the mornings and am free the rest of the day, and I’m available to board your dog anytime that works for you. Since I work nearby, I can easily accommodate your schedule for drop-offs and pick-ups. I spend most of my time at home, giving plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks—it’s a great way for them to get exercise and have fun. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I love being active with animals and making sure they feel happy and loved all day long. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My home is free of harmful plants and other hazards, I always keep the space clean and comfortable. I have a big yard where I can walk and play with your dog throughout the day, giving them plenty of exercise and attention. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs so they feel right at home. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I’m happy to follow any routines that help them feel secure. I know trust matters, so I always keep pet parents updated with photos, videos, and clear communication.

“I had to extend Gaucho’s stay for a day at the last minute because of travel and Jennifer and James were very gracious and kept my rambunctious little guy entertained for a few extra hours. I know Gaucho had a great time because he immediately and happily passed out from exhaustion when we got home.”

Cecilia M.

“It was like a wonderful play date for Georgie! Great communication. We will definitely consider Nina and Augustine if we need a sitter again.”

“Lorenzo is a top notch caregiver for your furry kid. He watched Duke 3 days in a row while I worked. Everyday when I picked Duke up he was happy and tired from all the fun he had. If your looking for quality care, I highly recommend Lorenzo!”

Tony M.

“First time trying Rover. Yuri was great. Great communication all throughout. She had another dog over and she asked if it was okay before accepting the booking. She sent pictures and videos during playtime and walks. I Will definitely use again!”

Merci M.

“Dan is so kind hearted and patient towards my babies. My honey can be nervous at times and he took the time to make her comfortable. Autumn is Dans biggest fan out of all three and he was very attentive to my Pumpkins’ needs. I will definitely utilize his services again in the future and I’m very grateful for his care on such short notice. It’s hard to trust just anyone with your babies. Dan was very warm and kind from the beginning conversation. He understood my concerns and made a point of making me feel very comfortable. 10/10 experience ☺️”

“Our dog Matcha seemed to love her stay with Tatiana! She had plenty of other dogs to spend time with and not worry about how she wasn't at home. If you have a furry friend that doesn't like being home alone for extended hours, I'd recommend Tatiana.”

Glen W.

“Valerie took great care of my pup! I appreciated that she was flexible and available for an initial meet and greet. During the care, she sent plenty of updates - photos, videos and was responsive to messages.”

About: I have over 20 years of experience taking care of dogs. I have owned dogs for the past 16 years straight, the last 10 years with two dogs. I have a lot of experience with all types of dogs (from chihuahua to Great Dane) and connect easily with them. After all, I am a dog myself (per the Chinese Zodiac!) Currently I have two rescue dogs: A special needs (epilepsy) Healer/Aussie Shepherd mix named Ace and a senior Supermutt named Maisie. We lost our senior Boston Terrier in early 2023 due to Cushings and Cancer. So, I have experience taking care of dogs from puppy through hospice. Medications and special food needs are no problem. NOTE: As I have two dogs of my own.....if your dog is not well socialized and does not get along with all other dogs, big and small, or has a history of aggressive behavior, please do not put in a "Boarding" booking request. Socialized, friendly dogs only, please. No excessive whiners or barkers and dogs must weigh 35 lbs or less. Thank you! Reliable, Responsible, Mature. I'm currently retired so am able to spend all of my time caring for my animals (and yours). The most i'll ever leave the house for is 2-3 hours for an appointment, but this is rare. We start our days with breakfast at 7am, take a morning hike in the woods or trails or town. Then some relax time at home before lunch and a 1pm neighborhood walk. Then more home time and play or naps until our 4pm hike. Then dinner at 5. All meal times adjustable for your dog's needs. I am able to be home 99% of the time so am always able to focus on the pets needs. I have been an animal lover my whole life and care deeply about the health and well being of animals in my care or under my stewardship. We live close to many hiking trails and nature preserves so the dogs always get plenty of sniff walks and exercise and socialization. Always on leash and always careful of meeting unknown dogs that may be receptive. I'm pretty good at sussing out a dog's behavior signals, if we should meet or not, after so many years.

“Jocelyn took lovely care of our two dogs for a day while we went into the city - she sent plenty of pics of them having fun and they came home tired and happy :) drop off and pick up was also super easy!”

Erika S.

“Amazing woman! I hate leaving my dog with sitters but Thandi makes me feel like my dog is literally with family because of how much she cares. I get updates which I appreciate and see how happy my very usually nervous pup is when he’s with her. Definitely recommend her as #1 to anyone looking for animal care.”

About: Hi! I'm a dog mom to an 8-year-old pittie mix and have experience working with all types of dogs (big and small, young and old). I've previously walked dogs for shelters in my hometown and have also fostered NYC rescue dogs in need. I mostly work from home these days and have wide availability during the week + on weekends. Just let me know what you need! I currently work from home with a flexible schedule and have fairly wide availability during the day and evenings. I am also available most weekends for walks, boarding, and drop-ins. I don't currently offer pet-sitting services at this time, but I'm happy to cater to your dogs needs for any walks, boarding, or drop-ins.

“Simone & Sean K were terrific! Kind, attentive to our dog's sensitivities and took great care of her. She had a great day with them. We highly recommend them and will definitely be booking future dates.”

Lee D.

“Most of the questions you ask I don’t have an answer for. My dog seemed very happy to be there.”

Eileen W.

“Tracy is on top of his game. Communication and care for our pup was thoughtful and clearly executed. Bear is a covid pup and anxious in new environments, but she quickly warmed up to Tracy. Bear looks forward to her next visit!”

Grant N.

“Omar was amazing with Benji! I could tell that Benji felt very comfortable and relaxed by looking at the pictures. I was a little worried at first cause my dog could be very moody at times but I can tell Omar treated him with love and made him feel right at home. Omar stayed in touch and gave me updates which I really appreciate!! He will definitely be watching over Benji again!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life — big, small, shy, playful, you name it. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at a time and still do, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m genuinely obsessed with dogs and love getting to know each one’s unique personality, quirks, and preferences. Whether it’s discovering their favorite walking route, the toy they can’t put down, or the treat that makes their tail wag the fastest, I make it my mission to ensure they feel loved, safe, and happy — always. I work full time in healthcare, but I’m fully remote — so my day naturally revolves around my dogs. I build my schedule and their walks, playtime, and snuggles, making sure they get plenty of attention and care throughout the day. This flexibility allows me to be present and attentive to any pet I’m caring for, just as I am with my own. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like my own. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles. I stick to their normal feeding schedules, keep fresh water available at all times, and make sure they get the exercise and attention they’re used to. In a clients home, I follow your routines and instructions to the letter — whether that means specific feeding times, favorite walking routes, or special care needs — so your pet feels comfortable and cares for in their own space. My goal is always to keep tails wagging and stress levels low.
