Lina is the GOAT! My precious little boy came down with diarrhea the day he was to stay with Lina. He was to stay for only 4-5 hours, but Lina jumped to the rescue, made me feel like it was no problem and even supplied me with a small syringe and she helped me get a liquid anti-diarrhea medicine in his mouth! As I held little Ricky, Lina got the medicine into his mouth successfully. She's a pro, nothing phases her and she's only too happy to help with whatever you need. Most importantly, I felt totally comfortable leaving my Ricky in her care for the evening. Also, she sent photos and text messages updating me on his well being throughout the evening. The next day, Ricky is fine, eating a ton and everything back to normal. So whenever y'all in Brooklyn, even if it's a bit of a distance from where you need to be, it's always worth it to have great care, with good people who care, even if you have to go a bit out of your way. Thank you Lina!

Doggy Day Care • May 11, 2026

Lina is everything you could hope for in a dog sitter! From the moment Buddy stays with her, I have complete peace of mind knowing he’s safe, loved, and genuinely cared for. She’s incredibly attentive, keeps me updated throughout his stay, and treats him like he’s her own. What stands out most is how much heart she puts into what she does. Buddy is always happy, comfortable, and well cared for with her, and that means everything to me as a puppy owner. Finding someone you can fully trust with your dog is priceless, and I’m beyond grateful to have found Lina. I couldn’t recommend her more!

Lina was so great with our two cats. She sent lots of pictures and was right on time for two drop in visits. I can't recommend her enough!

Lina is incredibly kind, and we love when our kitty goes to stay with her! She sends so many photos, keeps us updated, and really just showers our kitty with love! She’s super responsive, and we always appreciate her flexibility with pick up and drop off times. Thank you, Lina and Pepa!!!

Lina did a great job. She answered my queries promptly, sent daily pictures of my cat, and overall was very professional.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure, and clean environment and always supervise pets to make sure they feel safe and relaxed.

A typical day

A typical day depends on your pet’s needs 🐾 For cats, I provide a calm, quiet environment with gentle attention, playtime, and lots of space to relax.
