We live in an apartment along Washington Square Park, so we walk the park every day! We try on days off to find trails around to get out as well!

Information Samantha D. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if there are any special care instructions for your dog, we want them to be as comfortable as possible during their stay!

A typical day

We love to stimulate dogs mentally and physically, so we can do training and activities inside, but we’ll also head to the park and have play time outside to tire them out!

My husband and I have a dog named Jax, he just turned 7 and is such a goofball. We have taken care of dogs for a long time now and Jax loves having friends over!

Samantha & Sean were life-savers when I was called to a 2-week work trip on the West Coast. They gave extraordinary care to my dog and provided regular updates and communication. I give them my highest recommendation!

Sam is so sweet and took such good care of both our cat and dog! She treated them like her own pets and sent us daily updates while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with Sam again in the future!

Sam did an AMAZING job watching Nari when we were gone. She kept us posted with daily updates on their activities which included walks, dog park trips, and backyard playtime! I always get nervous about having people watch her because she needs a TON of exercise and is very much a working dog but it was such a relief to know that she was being taken care of by somebody who understands that different dogs have different needs. We have already planned to book our next sitting with Sam!!
