Pet care experience

Welcome to Your Dog’s Vacation Club

We’re a good fit for dogs who are over 1 year old, 15 lbs or more, spayed/neutered, fully potty trained, and happy sleeping solo (no human beds or bedrooms). We don’t accept dogs who require pee pads or bark/whine when we are out of sight. These basics help keep the vacation smooth for everyone. Pick up/drop off: 6:00am - 7:00pm. We live with a wonderful Lab named Lincoln (no current job).

Chris + Aiste took care of my dog Ackee like their own! When we arrived at their house she felt immediately at home and i knew she would be well taken care of. They truly seemed to enjoy and see the best in her and she had so much fun. They sent me many updates of her going on hikes and napping in the sun. Ackee would love to stay with them again!

My husky had such a fantastic time staying with Chris! She was happy and relaxed at the end of each day. Thank you so much,Chris, for taking such good care of her!

Five stars to Chris & Aiste. They took my senior dog, Howie, on short notice and treated him like their very own with much love and affection. Howie came home calm, relaxed, and obviously very happy from his time spent in the home of Chris & Aiste. I will certainly contact them again the next time I need dog sitters.

Chris and Aiste did an amazing job taking care of our high energy Gordon Setter. They are both physically active and energetic and welcomed our dog - which requires significant exercise and outdoor time - into their daily routine. We feel lucky to have found them and our dog looks forward to future vacations at their home.

Chris and Aiste were fantastic hosts for our golden retriever, Barkus. He had a great weekend with his new pal, Lincoln. We'd be happy to book again, and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for loving hosts for their pup.

Chris and Aiste took such amazing care of our young and energetic pup over a rainy Christmas week. They got him out for fun hikes and sent lots of great photos and updates each day. He came home relaxed and happy.

Schedule

We recently moved from California to Murray Hill, so we are having a great time exploring our new neighborhood. Pick up/drop off is between 6:00am – 7:00pm. Pet care is a central part of our day; we integrate guest dogs into our regular morning and evening walks (and runs!) alongside our wonderful Lab, Lincoln (no current job).

Safety, trust & environment

Transitioning from a yard to an NYC apartment means we are highly attentive when navigating city sidewalks, and dogs are always securely leashed outdoors. Indoors, we maintain a safe, dog-proofed space. To keep everyone comfortable, we ask that pups are happy sleeping solo (no human beds or bedrooms).

Pets

A typical day

The best part of our new location is the vibrant city energy. A typical day includes strolls along the East River Esplanade or local spots like St. Vartan Park and Madison Square Park. We love to take photos, and for longer stays, we do field trips to switch each day up and provide variety.

We would love to hear the level of activity needed, favorite treats, and why you chose their name.
