13. joseline f.
“I have had the privilege of knowing Joseline for about seven to eight years, and during this time, I have come to deeply admire her remarkable dedication to her pets. Joseline doesn’t just treat her pets as animals under her care—she treats them as beloved members of her family. To her, they are her children, and she embraces this responsibility with unwavering commitment and love. Joseline has always made it a priority to provide her pets with the utmost care and attention, ensuring they are not only healthy but also genuinely happy. She has a unique ability to understand and respond to each of their individual needs, whether it’s through regular walks and playtime for her dogs, creating enriching activities for her cats, or maintaining the specific care routines required for her more exotic pets. She doesn’t view this as a burden but rather as a joyful and fulfilling part of her daily life. Her household is a testament to her exceptional capability as a caregiver. She has two dogs, two cats, two parakeets, a bearded dragon, and a turtle—all of whom thrive under her attentive care. Managing such a diverse group of animals requires patience, organization, and an incredible depth of knowledge about their unique requirements. Joseline consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that each of them is living their best life, from feeding and grooming to creating a warm and loving environment for them to flourish. It’s this dedication and passion that make Joseline uniquely qualified to care for another person’s pet when needed. Her experience extends far beyond basic pet care; she treats every animal with respect, compassion, and a deep understanding of what they need to feel secure and loved. Anyone entrusting their pet to Joseline can do so with full confidence that their beloved companion will receive the same level of exceptional care she provides to her own. In a world where not everyone understands the emotional and physical needs of animals, Joseline stands out as a rare gem. Her ability to connect with and care for animals is truly inspiring, and it’s clear that her love for them is genuine and unwavering.”

“I have 5 dogs with my wife and I and Brian is always the first person I call when we need a dog sitter. My dogs love him and he always cares for my dogs like his own. There is never a problem when we're away and I know my dogs will be safe with him. It's hard to trust people to care for your dogs the same as you do but I feel Brian goes above and beyond to put my dogs first and give us peace of mind.”

17. Jennifer B.
About: I take care of them as if they were my own. I love to do it. It’s so much fun. This all started by just doing a coworker a favor. Fell in love with it. I do work full time. If you need me to stop by let them out for dinner if feed them after 5 I can do that. I can’t also do the weekends if needed. I do not take care of the dogs at home I do not have a fenced yard therefore i don’t feel comfortable. I do overnights depending on the time and how the schedule is.


18. Jackson R.

“He did a great job and my dog actually improved behavior as a result.”


19. Jessica O.
About: I have fostered 20+ dogs ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I also grew up with a dog that eventually came to live with me in college and I was able to provide the best care for her while balancing school as well. I am well trusted by friends to watch their new puppies when they are either on vacation or need a quick pee break. I have also grown up around dogs and have cared for anyone’s dogs like they are my own weather it is a friends dog, strangers dog, or a foster dog that needs some love and attention before finding a forever home. I am very passionate about dogs and know all dogs are different and need different care. I’m currently in between jobs so I am able to stop by for walks, playing, or just hanging out with them so they are not lonely during the day. I also have a free time to be able to do overnight stays. I will not be able to watch dogs in my own home, but at the clients home I will be sure to follow all rules provided. I will make sure to not stray from their daily life style and make sure they feel as if the owner never left them.




20. Daniel S.

“Dan (and Denise) are about as big hearted as you can get. They have watched over my Vizlsa multiple times and while it pains me to say, my little girl looks at me with those eyes when I come to pick her up as if to say.., "cmon dad, do we have to leave?" She clearly loves it there, and if you know Vs, they can be quite energetic! Walks are abundant, but the big expansive fenced in back yard is the selling point. We live in Brooklyn so off leash opportunities are far and few in between...so going to uncle Dan's is a treat. My V is sensitive when it comes to food allergies and Dan understands that, she is always well fed never shows signs of being fed table scraps.The enjoyment is mutual which is important. It is more of a temporary adoption as than a dog vacay,..as my V instantly becomes part of their family. They are loving and patient and it shows. I fully endorse Dan to be your four legged host. You won't regret it.”
