“I am very happy to write a 5☆review for Dan and Denise. I first met them in July 2017.I had inquired about their services for my previous dog and loved what I saw. Unfortunately, my Dog suddenly passed away and I did not use them . I did however save their contact information and now 9 months later , I have a new puppy. As soon as I needed daycare I called them up. Bruno spent a full day with them in their house and parklike backyard. He had a great stay and will be coming back on a regular basis. I am very happy with the care he received !”
“Denise is awesome! My little girl stayed with her for 1 day daycare. I was a bit afraid that my pup would be a bit too energetic, but Denise handled her very well. When my baby girl got home, she looked like she had fun and ready for nap time. Would recommend Denise!”
“Jodie did a great job taking care of our two puppies. She was responsive during the booking process and communicative with us during their stay. Our dogs were in great spirits when they came back home and we will absolutely be booking with Jodie again in the future!”
“We had such an amazing experience with Veronique! She took excellent care of our golden retriever Kennedy. We were provided frequent updates with photos and video and the communication was so easy. Veronique was very quick in getting back to us which was great. Kennedy had such a fun time and we would love to have Kennedy return! Highly recommend!”
About: Hey! My name is Christian, I have over 8 years of experience as a dog walker and pet sitter. Over the years family and friends have put their trust in me to watch over their pets because they know I will treat them as my own. I am also a certified veterinary assistant so you can rest assure your furry friend is in good hands. Growing up animals have always been my passion so getting to do what I love is very rewarding. I also have experience working with corn snakes, rabbits, birds and fish as well. I have a yorkie terrier of my own named Caramelo and know the importance of having a trusted sitter look after him when I am away. Your pet will always get treated like family in my home with lots of love and belly rubs. I look forward to working with your pet soon :) I am free all summer, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding, dog walking, doggy day care and walks. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I provide plenty of chew toys to help stimulate their minds.
“Very happy to have found Pam. Super responsive and really saved the day for me by taking Mason last minute. He does have anxiety around new dogs and Pam was especially sensitive to his needs until he felt comfortable. Highly recommend her!”
About: I love spending time with dogs, I prioritize going above and beyond to ensure your fur baby feels comfortable and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent updates with photos and videos throughout the day to keep you informed about your pet’s activities and well-being. I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding and/or for just a fun day care at anytime. I maintain a flexible schedule to maintain your pet’s needs.

About: I am recently retired NYPD Detective who has had dogs all 45 years of my life. My Frenchie recently passed and I am looking to do some dog walking and/or sitting. My last few rescue dogs all had a variety of health problems including surgery to remove my Frenchies ear canal rendering him deaf, my Boston Terrier had severe allergies, his dermatologist taught me how to administer immunotherapy shots to him, as well as two of my boxers becoming geriatric and cancer-ridden. So I do have some experience with sickly dogs. Large and small breeds are all fine with me. I do have three younger children all in school during the day so walking or spending time with dogs during the day is something I am seeking. I would also take dogs for sitting, long or short term as long as they are good with children. I would only take one dog/dog family at a time to ensure your dog(s) are treated as family members. I have a fenced in yard, and I have no restrictions on your dogs unless you have those restrictions at your home, ie. no furniture etc. Being a retired detective you can trust me to your home without any worry of theft, as a member of law enforcement for the past 20 years, I value law and abiding the law tot he fullest extent.
“Amber was very accommodating and communicative. Buster had a great time interacting with her dogs and got to go on a nice walk. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”
About: I absolutely love dogs! My family dog passed away when she was still a puppy, a beautiful husky named Belle. In her honor I make sure to give all the love and protection to dogs that little me couldn’t provide. I promise you, your fur babies will be so loved, cared for and protected while they are with me! I am an elementary school lunch aide during the school year, so I am only out at least three hours a weekday. I don’t have this job during the summer so my schedule is more flexible! I have a yard perfect for your fur baby to run around in, and the elementary school I work at is right down the street so we can get some great walks in and play on the field (only if you’re okay with it of course)! I will need a list of what you’d prefer for your fur baby and for you to bring their essentials for food, play, and sleep. I want to disrupt their schedule as little as possible so just tell me what I need to do and your wish is my command! The more details the better!
