🐾Your Dog’s Home Away From Home🐾
Hello! I’m a lifelong dog lover, experienced sitter, and proud dog dad to Nala, my sweet senior Maltipoo. I live in a quiet, dog-friendly area with plenty of grass, nearby dog parks, and beautiful waterfront walks with Manhattan views. I’m home full-time, so your pup will get lots of attention, affection, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I’ve had dogs most of my life, including my two Maltipoos, Simba and Nala, who were together for 13 years. Since Simba passed, Nala has missed having another calm dog around. She has a gentle, friendly temperament and does best with other sweet, well-mannered pups. I’m not doing this just for extra income - I genuinely love dogs, and having another pup around would also bring comfort and companionship to Nala. Your dog would be welcomed like family in a calm, safe, loving home. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs, small dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs who need a little extra patience. I’ve also fostered rescue dogs, including seniors and dogs with medical needs, so I’m familiar with administering medication, following specific routines, and giving dogs the care and consistency they need. Your pup’s stay will include daily walks, waterfront strolls, outdoor time, plenty of snuggles, companionship with Nala, and photo/video updates so you always know they’re happy and safe. I know how important it is to feel confident about who is caring for your dog. I’ll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and attentiveness I give my own.

Ratings and reviews
Devin was awesome! He was very responsive and great at sending lots of photos and updates. Sparky loved his weekend stay with Devin and would love to go back.
Wonderful and caring person. Number one pick for me
We can’t recommend Devin enough! This was our first time booking with Rover, we are so happy we found this loving home for our pup, Rylee. Devin is a true dog lover and his place is really a puppy resort. Devin’s house has a park across the street, during her stay, Rylee went to lots of walks and enjoyed outdoor time daily. Nala & Simba, Devin’s dogs, are adorable. Really quickly Rylee became one of the pack and became BFF with Simba! Devin was very accommodating and helped us to continue with the same rules we have for our pup at home. Rylee came home happy, well fed and clean. So happy we found a second family for Rylee! She will be back :) Thanks Devin!!
This was our first time using Devin as our sitter for 2 dogs and we found him to be caring, mature and responsible. We will definitely use his services again. He offered clear and responsive communications, as well as shared photos of how the stay was going with our pets (rest, play, and walks). Thank you Devin for our peace of mind, and the TLC for our pups. We highly recommend him.
Devin watched our two dogs for 5 days. We highly recommend him. Very responsive, send us updates and spoiled the dogs rotten. Also very flexible since we needed to update our plans etc. We definitely plan to use his services again.
Ponyo got a true 5 star experience during her stay! She got a ton of yummy foods, got to chill by the pool, and we got several updates throughout the day. Devin is a very understanding and flexible person and made our trip plans a lot easier to manage. Would definitely book again!

Schedule
I work from home and seldom leave the house. You can rest assured your fur baby will virtually have 24/7 care and attention, and we enjoy sharing pics and updates on how much your pup is enjoying their stay.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
The initial days of your dogs stay are spent giving your pups plenty of attention (and treats) to gain their trust and companionship. Pups are totally welcome to relax on the couch and watch animal planet or crash in bed with the rest of the wolf pack at night.. I work from home and your pup will always have me and my two maltipoos to hang out with. I only accept one puppy guest at a time - to ensure that your dog is as safe, comfortable, and as attended to as possible.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day starts with a morning walk, breakfast, and plenty of attention. Since I’m home most of the day, your pup will have companionship, supervision, and lots of affection rather than being left alone for long periods. We’ll enjoy walks along the waterfront, outdoor time in nearby parks and grassy areas, and plenty of opportunities for play, relaxation, and cuddles. My sweet senior Maltipoo, Nala, loves having friendly dogs around and helps create a calm, welcoming environment. Every dog is different, so I tailor the day to their personality and routine - whether they love adventure, naps, or a little of both. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away.
