“My dog had a great time with Jennifer, Thomas and their kids. They’ shared photos of her getting petted on the couch and going on walks. She was exhausted when she came home after having had a very fun day with this lovely family.”

“I left my dog, Reba, with Jane for the first time last week. Jane was so kind, sending photos every other day to let me know Reba had settled in and was happy. Jane has several outdoor spaces for the dogs to roam around. I will use Jane again next time we go away. Thank you!”

“Nicole and family were amazing!! Rummi was treated as a member of the family as soon as she arrived. Nicole provided regular and detailed updates as well as adorable photos. Rummi is wiped out from all the fun she had during her stay. We will definitely be booking with Nicole again! Highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with all different types of animals my whole life. I have been a dog mom for 13 years. I am great at walking dogs who have aggression towards other dogs, I know how to find a calm route to take and distract them before conflict arises! I recently lost my 90 lb alapaha blue blood bulldog mix to a terminal illness and am looking forward to spending time with other people's dogs. I am a self employed artist, volunteer, and executive director of a free store that I physically staff on Saturdays, so I have a very flexible schedule. I will care for pets in your home with so much attentiveness and love! Just give me a set of instructions and I am happy to hang out :)

“Bob took wonderful care of my puppy Trixie. I was so nervous to leave her with someone new because she is a very cautious pup, but Bob made me feel much more comfortable during our meet and greet (where he served me the most delicious cup of coffee). He told me about his extensive background with dogs and showed Trixie and me around. He was very calm and sweet with Trixie. After her 4-day stay with Bob, she came home happy and well-cared for. I can understand why Bob is so popular! We hope to book with him again in the future. Thank you Bob!!”

“Gabe and Annie took amazing care of our dog Apollo! My fiancé and I were in the Catskills for the weekend, but didn't want to board our dog in NYC. Apollo had a great time and got along great with Gabe's dogs. If we're in the area again and need a pet sitter, I'm definitely reaching out to Gabe!”

“Nicole has a wonderful fenced property and is extremely attentive to our puppy and senior dogs needs, making sure they are getting along well with her other guests, sending lots of photos and updates! We would love to book again!”

“Cipriana and Pamela were communicative and professional. Dorito was much calmer than I thought she would be for her first overnight away. Thank you!”

“Simon watched our little pup while we went away for the weekend. The two of them became fast buddies and we were grateful to know our little guy was with someone he was so comfortable with.”

“Kayte was amazing!!! My dog has anxiety, but he felt right at home with Kayte. They even went on a 5-mile walk that I’ll now have to live up to haha. She sent pics daily and Onyx always looked so happy and safe. I’ll definitely be using Kayte again!!!”

“Deanne took great care of our two dogs for over 2 weeks. It was the longest time we have been away from them but we did not need to worry, they had a great stay. Highly recommend.”


“Lauren was amazing with Pete (and our "parental" worries). He happily trotted off with Lauren one morning and was sitting with her, tall and well-behaved the next when we picked him up! It really seemed like he had a great time and was looking forward to going back soon! Thanks Lauren!”


“Jen was excellent! We boarded our dog with her for two nights and had a great experience. Communication was easy, the house felt safe and secure, and care instructions were followed. We will definitely use her again!”

“Sophia was lovely! We felt very comfortable leaving Bernie with her, and confident that she was in good hands. Sophia gave frequent updates, was easy to communicate with, and helpful throughout the planning and drop-off/pickup. Bernie had a fabulous vaycay, thank you!!!”


“Victoria was the best dog sitter I've ever had! My dog is a rescue with behavioral issues so finding an experienced and caring sitter can be difficult but Victoria put all that to rest. In our initial meeting she gained my confidence with her knowledge of handling tough dogs and then while i was away she sent constant updates and photos. That kept my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying about my dog the whole time. I will definitely contact Victoria next time I need a sitter.”

“Once again, Rosalie came through wonderfully! This was Rumor's first experience with boarding overnight and she did fabulously with the dedicated and loving care of Rosalie. Thank you Rosalie!!”
