Top rated Midtown doggy day care sitters

“Both Freya and Winston looked like they had a great time. We appreciate you hosting them on such short notice. We would definitely book again!”


“Joshua did a great job with our 4 month old puppy, Tuuli. I was a little nervous leaving her (first time puppy parent) and his updates with photos throughout the day put me at ease. We would happily book him again for daycare. His service is much more personalized and offers a wider variety of hours that other franchises just don’t offer, perfect for us when we have busy evenings and can’t leave our pup home alone (yet!).”


“Renee was great. Excellent communication in setting up the sit. Very personable and flexible. Chewie had a comfortable stay and we will definitely use Renee again!!”


“Ru is an attentive, kind, and responsive sitter! Our dog is a bit nervous around new people, but he warmed up to Ru well during his visit!”


“Marina was wonderful! I had a complicated schedule and she worked with me to figure out the best options for me and my dog. My dog loved her and was so excited to go back and see her!”


“Lindsay is wonderful! She helped organize a meet and greet with our pups so I felt more than comfortable leaving Kirk. Her communication is above and beyond. Kirk came home tired and that is exactly what we needed :)”


“Remi did a great job caring for Duckie! She had lots of updates and pictures. She took him on a long walk and gave him lots of snuggles. I will definitely be booking with Remi again:)”


“Susan has been a fabulous fit for our pups and our needs. She is a true animal lover, has a big fenced back yard where the dogs can frequently run and play, and she treats each dog like her own. Having my pups stay with Susan is like having them experience a trip to a “grandma’s” house, of sorts. They definitely get loved on!”


“Caitlin has been a wonderful dog sitter for my pup! She gives such great care and I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She is very communicative. Would definitely recommend.”


About: Hi there! My name is Katherine, and I'm a passionate and experienced pet lover who would love to take care of your furry friends. I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, and I believe that every pet deserves love, attention, and a safe environment. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just a cozy cuddle session, I’m here to make sure your pet feels right at home. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs, cats, and small animals, and I can offer tailored services depending on your pet's needs. I’m happy to update you with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands. Let’s connect and see how I can help with your pet care needs! I currently work from home and would not be gone for periods of time greater than a couple hours. Since we're home a majority of the time and have our own pets to care for, we welcome short notice visits. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet, and I promise to provide the same care and attention that I give my own pets.

“Again an amazing experience. Franklin loves being with his friends Roxy and Paco. At the end of the day he’s pooped and is fast asleep. Highly recommend working with Mimi!”

“Megan did a great job watching our pup. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. Harley was EXHAUSTED when we left, which is always a great sign. Will definitely use her again.”


About: I absolutely love working with dogs! I have at least 9 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats! I volunteered in the cattery in Humane Society and walking dogs as well. I work remotely and can flex my schedule to spend time watching pets or walking your dog. I am very flexible and I can easily work with your scheduling. I have a backyard, but I prefer to walk dogs frequently and take them outside myself for fresh air and outdoor play. We have only 1 pet rabbit, and keep him separated when there is a furry house guest.

“Ki was flexible with my work schedule needs and was very communicative in sending pictures and updates of Benji. She brought him on plenty of walks too. Her excitement to meet Benji reassured me that he was in good hands.”


About: I'm Amanda, 27, a yoga instructor and a full time animal lover! Growing up, my sister and I used to save strays and find them better homes, sometimes we were lucky enough to convince our parents to keep them. I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up because our family is full of nurturing individuals. I have babysat and taken care of relatives and friends animals throughout the years and know that each animal needs a different type of care considering each one has a special characteristics that define them. I make sure they use the bathroom or are taken out every two-three hours. Walks are a must, knowing animals have a lot of energy that needs to be released. I have a mini Australian Shepherd, Ezra who is a 3 years old, and love other animals and cats. Speaking of cats, I have my 6 year old cat Veda as well. I currently work part time, so I will have a ton of time to play with the pups and/or cats. I have three dogs of my own that it’s a habit by now! I have a yard (fenced) and one other fur baby to keep them company! Fed twice a day and let out four times a day with surrounding nature for some hikes and walks to get the energy out!

Melissa S.
“The very first meeting with Melissa demonstrated her love of, and compassion for, animals. She immediately sat on the floor and took a "selfie" with my dog, Tadpole, a Clumber Spaniel. On their walks, Melissa has taken SO many pictures-- not because I requested them, but because she was completely engaged in the experience. I hired a dog walker because I was recovering from hip replacement surgery. Melissa has been a blessing. She is so enthusiastic, energetic, and caring-- I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a gem for dog care! I would trust her for pet sitting, without reservation.”
