Pet care experience

Playful pet lover, cats and dogs.

I grew up with 2 Dobermans, a Cotton de Tulear and a few others rescue along the way, and over a dozen rescue cats. I love animals, playing with them, and am an expert at pets, cuddles and fetch!

This stay was great! Prompt communication, easy to work with, and Brady had a great time - made himself right at home. Recommended!

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 :)

Amazing! Rachi had such a fun time staying with Hughes and Katie — no anxiety, no barking at night! They were such wonderful hosts and will definitely have rachi stay with them again 🥰🥰.

Bear had a wonderful 2 days of daycare with Hughes and Kathryn! They provided many picture updates, took Bear on several Central Park walks, and were very communicative and responsive. Bear will absolutely be back!

Schedule

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.

Safety, trust & environment

I feed and water dogs depending on their routine, currently in the morning and evening. Cuddle sessions throughout the day as I work from home. We always make sure Riley is on the leash and safe and harnesses are secure - especially when crossing streets and in the park with bikes etc.

I wake up and go to the park where we walk and play fetch with our dog for at least an hour. Breakfast and then naps for dogs while I work from home, with a short lunchtime walk. Then evening walk in the park with fetch before dinner and more naps.
