Kessy was very professional and attentive Chloe had an amazing time while boarding with Kessy. Her place is very clean and in a great neighborhood I recommend Kessy and will rebook for my next vacation.

Kessy was good with Marlee. Marlee felt comfortable in her space. She listened to my concerns for Marlee eating because she is picky. I would definitely refer Kessy & in the future use her services again.

Kessy was amazing💙 my pup absolutely love her and all there cuddles sessions lol🤣 Nash doesn’t go potty outside only on the pads, although this was a first for Kessy the adjustment was smooth. We will definitely be back again.

Kessy is so sweet and went above and beyond to accommodate my pup on such short notice. She was very communicative and responsive during boarding, and I am looking forward to booking with her again. Thank you, Kessy!

I live in a studio apartment in the Mott Haven area (close to Harlem.) Your loved one gets my full attention with all the snuggles they desire. Meals will be given on time as well as medication if necessary.

We will go on walks and have play time. I’m happy to give lots of belly rubs and the occasional pupchino if allowed by mom or dad.
