Responsible & reliable dog lover

Hello everyone! I’m Lee. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 17, starting with a variety of wonderful breeds — Dalmatian, Chihuahua, Shih Tzu, Golden Retriever, and Maltese — belonging to my host family, friends, roommates, and myself. My own beloved dog Pixie passed away two years ago, which inspired me to start dog sitting. I’m married with two kids, and we’re all passionate about dogs! When my children are at school, I love walking through Central Park with our furry guests. And on weekends, my family joins in for walks, playtime, and even the occasional picnic with the dogs. I have plenty of experience with both puppies and senior dogs, adapting to their unique needs. As a stay-at-home mom and part-time yoga and ballet instructor, my schedule is very flexible. Rain or shine, snow or cold, we’re out in Central Park every day, ensuring the dogs in our care get all the exercise, love, and attention they deserve. When we’re at home, we offer a cozy environment where the dogs can play, relax, or simply unwind, depending on what they need. I treat each dog as family. Making sure they’re well-fed, hydrated, exercised. And most importantly — LOVED. My goal is for every dog to feel at home with us, giving their owners peace of mind while they’re away. ;)

Doggy Day Care • May 21, 2026

We are pet parents and We were traveling from Iowa with our baby to show him NYC.. He is an adorable kid but it's very hard to find a sitter who would go miles to make your kid comfortable.. Lee is one of those sitters who understands what and how it feels to leave your pet in a completely new city having faith on a stranger.. Since it was very hot we decided to keep him with her so that we could do the sightseeing where he is not allowed.. From the moment we left him with her till the time I picked him up, we got constant updates on him.. She made extra efforts to make buddy feel like home.. I could see the smile and happiness in his eyes when she shared millions of pictures and videos.. I can go on and on but even that won't justify the efforts she put in for my Buddy.. So all I can say that if you want someone who would love your dog just like you, she is the one... Hands down!!!

Lee was amazing! She provided plenty of updates during Mia’s stay, which helped put my mind at ease while I was away. Will definitely look to book again with her in the future!

Lee was absolutely amazing with our dog Archie while we were out of town for a wedding. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease by sending frequent updates and lots of pictures, which really helped us relax knowing he was in such good hands. She kept us informed about all of his walks and how he was doing throughout the day. Archie is only two and still has plenty of puppy energy, but Lee was incredibly patient, gentle, and kind with him. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after and takes the time to understand their personalities and needs. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book Lee again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize the safety and happiness of every dog during their stay. We’ve got bowls, beds, toys, and a small crate on hand, just in case you forget anything!

A typical day

I love giving the dogs massages, it’s a relaxing, meditative time for me too. We have a great time playing with their toys around the house, especially tug-of-war! Plus, we enjoy daily walks in Central Park to soak in the fresh air and nature together.

If the dog is friendly with me and with kids. Are there any specific things they’re afraid of that I should be aware of? What’s the dog’s typical schedule or routine? What are their favorite activities? Are they reactive to anything? Understanding these details will help me make the dog feel more comfortable during their stay.
