Availability

Currently I'm going to the park every morning and evening with Riley, my Labrador. Long episodes of fetch are necessary. We live right next to Central Park so we're able to take long walks and can do the same with your dog(s). Riley loves to play with other dogs too.

Hugo & Katie were amazing with our puppy Lady. They brought her to the park, were very attentive and provided updates along the day on how she was doing. They have another dog Riley who was sweet and got along nicely with our dog. Perfect first experience on this app, would highly recommend them!

Hugo and Katie took fantastic car of my golden Milo! They were attentive and always made sure to send us photo/video updates on how he was doing. We will definitely be booking them again, we have never felt more comfortable leaving our dog with another sitter :)
