We’ll Treat Your Pets Like Family

Hey Everyone! I'm Anthony, but most people just call me Tony! I grew up with a Siberian Husky and a Pug so I’ve always loved dogs of all shapes and sizes! I used to do Rover full time when I was in college and had such a fun time with so many incredibly owners and amazing pups. I took a long break, but now find myself with lots of spare time and I would love to spend it with your pups! I currently live in a spacious apartment in Astoria with my beautiful girlfriend Sofiya, who is also rover certified, and our brindle Pug Dulce! When your pup is with us, they will be treated how they’re meant to be treated; like family. We have years of experience with dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and age. I am trained in dog CPR and administering medication. If you have any special requests just let me know!

Anthony was very attentive to Moji’s needs and gave him great care! We appreciated all the pictures and updates everyday we were away from our little guy. We felt fully at ease leaving him with Anthony.

Tony and Sofiya are the sweetest! I was really nervous to leave Winnie because it’s the first time I left her with someone who wasn’t family, but Tony and Sofiya took such good care of her and sent me regular updates with pictures of her snuggling with their little pug, Dulce. They even brushed her teeth and dealt with her leash reactivity on walks with ease. It was easy to see that Winnie was in good hands!

Tony and Sofiya were amazing with Bonnie! This was my first time leaving her with anyone outside of family, and they made me feel completely at ease with multiple daily updates, pictures, and great communication. They gave Bonnie so much love and attention and even took her to a doggie party. It was clear she had an incredible time and was treated like one of their own. I could not recommend them more highly and would absolutely trust them with Bonnie again. I think she was a little disappointed to come home 😄🐾❤️

As a total nervous dog mom, I don’t leave Brunson with many people, but I’ve used Anthony and Sofiya a few times now and trust them completely. They always keep me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind, and Brunson is happy and comfortable every time he stays with them. So grateful to have found them! ❤️

Anthony and Sofiya are the BEST!! They have taken care of my pup Mickey like he’s their own. Mickey’s so happy when he realizes we’re heading for their door. And as a dog mom who hates leaving him behind when I travel for work, it is SO reassuring to know how happy he is there, and how much they love him. They are so thorough, detail-oriented, and attentive, and they send tons of photos, too. Cannot recommend them highly enough! 💜💜💜

Anthony and Sofiya were absolutely amazing! This was the first time we were leaving our dog Sauce for a couple days and they completely put our minds at ease. They are so incredibly nice and welcoming. They sent us lots pictures so we could see our dog was having the best time. When he wasn't playing there were also pictures of him napping so we knew he was so relaxed and happy. We are so thankful to of found them and will definitely be calling them for future bookings...highly recommend! 5 plus!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is a #1 priority. We believe pets are more than just pets, they are family and you do everything to take care of your family.

We have access to multiple veterinarians minutes away in the case of any emergencies. We also have a Pet camera with a 24/7 stream.
