Doggy Day Care • Apr 26, 2026

Katie took great care of our dog Stella and Stella seemed to have a great time with the other dogs there. Katie was great about giving us updates and sending us pictures during the daycare session and was very easy to coordinate with. We think Stella also loved having Riley for company there. We would definitely ask Katie to watch Stella again in the future.

I could not recommend Kathryn higher, she was amazing. It was our first time leaving our puppy and she sent photos every day. He clearly loved staying with her and will definitely ask her to look after him again.

Kathryn is awesome — she sent great photos throughout my pup’s visit & I could tell my shy dog was very comfortable with her. Highly recommend!

Kathryn and her partner were fantastic sitters, rare gems in the city! They watched my dog for over a week while I was out of town, and it was clear from photos that my dog had a blast and was very well cared for. I will definitely hire Kathryn again!

Kathryn was a great sitter for our dog, Zoey! She was super communicative, sending us lots of photos of Zoey. She also is super comfortable with large dog breeds since she has a lab of her own. Highly recommend!

My dog Sam has stayed with Katie several times, for a few days while I was away as well as just a day or a walk. As Sam has separation anxiety, we need someone we can trust and will make her confortable, Katie is that person and more! Katie made sure that Sammy got lots of exercise and cuddles while staying with her. She kept us updated with pictures and we trust her 100% to take care of Sam again. Sam now loves to stay with Katie and happily leaves us behind when it’s time for a walk with Katie and her very friendly dog Riley.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a dog friendly (and proof) apartment on the UWS. I’m one block from Central Park so love to take dogs for walks there. If your dog has recall and is used to being off leash, I’m happy to also do the off-leash hours in the park.
