“Kecia is the best! She is such a loving, caring person and my dog Simmy is so comfortable staying with her. She also sends me regular pics and updates.”


“Avraham was everything you’d ever want in a sitter. Kind, attentive, reliable, accommodating, trustworthy, quickly won over our pup. His photo and video updates not only kept us informed but also reassured us that Mochi was in great hands, allowing us to fully enjoy our vacation. We couldn’t be happier with his care and will definitely book him again in the near future.”


“Susan took great care of Indy while I was away. I received frequent updates which helped keep me at ease while I was out of town. Susan was very diligent getting Indy’s food/ outside routine down. Thank you, Susan!”


“SUMMER IS AMAZING!! We’ve had such a great experience with her as our dog sitter. It’s clear from the start that she’s a true dog lover - our pup warmed to her immediately and always comes home happy and relaxed. Summer is incredibly thorough and attentive, taking the time to understand our dog’s needs and routine. She also sends consistent updates, which gives us peace of mind while we’re away. She is very punctual (i.e., always ready for pick-up/drop-off) and has always been super flexible with our schedule when plans change. She’s even helped us out in cases where we needed a last-minute sitter, which was a huge lifesaver. It’s such a relief to know our dog is in such caring and capable hands and that we have a go-to sitter in the city. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!!”


“Kira was amazing! She treated Maya so well and gave me photo updates of her throughout the stay. I'd definitely ask her to take care of Maya again! Thank you!”


“Amy is very reliable and she provided me regular updates of Baxter. She is experienced with big dog and took good care of my dog. I will definitely choose to stay with her again in future.”


“Eva & Tyler were excellent! They made sure our girls were well cared for and loved on while we were away in another state. They gave us a good amount of updates and pictures as well! They followed instructions and also were very caring about all of our requests. They were so wonderful with our girls - we would definitely love to have them take care of our girls again! Thank you kindly for everything!”


“Nirvana took care of my dachshund over a long weekend and was great! Sent updates and worked around my schedule, which I appreciated. Will definitely book again!”


“Kylie and her husband were amazing! So communicative and clearly cared so much for Mickey. Appreciate the flexibility and of course all the photos”


“David was absolutely the best!! This was the first time leaving my 8-month old pup since we got him and I was so nervous and from the second I met David I felt comfortable. We left for the weekend and David sent me updates from the second I left. I got many pictures throughout the weekend and I could tell that my pup was having fun. David even took him to the pet store to pick out a chew bone :) truly the best and I have no doubt we will be leaving our pup with David again! So glad I found him!!”


“Alik was wonderful! It was my first time boarding my puppy overnight and he did a great job thanks to Alik and Buddy. Can’t wait to book again :)”


“Tory was great with my high-energy pup for a few days of boarding. She sent lots of updates and photos, and even sent photos of the food portions to make sure was giving the correct amounts. My return flight got canceled because of a weather delay, and Tory was very accommodating in extending the stay for another night and being flexible and very communicative with new pickup time. I felt that my dog was safe and in very good hands. The private back yard is also a great feature. I highly recommend Tory as a dog sitter!”


“Melissa was great watching our mutt, Tulip. She dog sat twice for us. The first was just for a few hours. The second was twelve hours. Both occasions were seamless. Tulip seemed happy and calm about both stays. She normally suffers from separation anxiety but if she was going through it she was much calmer than usual. Melissa was always prompt and responsive to all my inquiries. She also was very articulate about Tulip’s behavior while with her. I will definitely seek Melissa out again when Tulip needs a sitter.”


“Luna has stayed several times with Junaid and Tina, and always has the best time! They shared multiple pictures/videos throughout the day from walks and playtime, and she is always having a blast! Can’t recommend enough”


“The absolute best best dog sitter of all time! My piglet can be a handful and Angie gave him the staycation of a lifetime, so grateful for her and cannot recommend enough!”


“Lika and Alister were amazing hosts to our pup. They sent lots of photos and videos and Neville came home happy and healthy. Neville has some special needs and they took full care of him! Would fully recommend. Neville would love to go back and spend time with them again!”


“Katherine was excellent! Tate had a great time. She was super fast to respond to a very last minute ask over a holiday weekend and we are super grateful for her!!!”


“Lauren was great with Rupert. She sent multiple pictures and videos during his stay. Her dog Lila seemed like a perfect play match. See you around the neighborhood. Thanks again for accommodating on short notice! A+”


“Amber went above and beyond with updates and photos! Very reassuring as this was her first experience with Penelope. Will definitely be working with Amber from here on out!”


“Ellana took good care of our dog Doakes. She asked lots of questions ahead of time to learn about his habits, and she always got back to us quickly when we asked how he was doing. We would work with Ellana again in the future.”

I highly recommend Pratik for watching your pet! He was very communicative and provided frequent updates throughout the day. My dog gets separation anxiety but I could tell he was comfortable right away in Pratik’s home. I’m looking forward to booking Pratik again the next time I am out of town!

Neha took great care of my pup! She made him feel comfortable and happy, and she was very responsive with any updates and questions. I would rebook with Neha again!

Brooke and Rio took amazing care of Rosa while I was away! They made sure she was comfortable and gave her lots of affection. They also kept me updated with texts and photos, which I really appreciate. I'll definitely use them again in the future!

Erica was great! She kept us updated and was very flexible when our flight got delayed. We would definitely use her again!

I boarded my dog, Midnight, with Kaitlyn for one night in NYC.She was kind and warm when we met and Midnight was well cared for and was in good spirits when I picked her up the next evening.. I felt comfortable leaving my dog in her care. Thanks again for hosting her!

Rosana looked after our little guy amazingly well. Every time she sent pictures, which was every day he looked very relaxed and happy. So glad they had such a good time together and I would definitely recommend Rosana!

I’m so incredibly grateful to have found Jeannette! She cared for my dog, Kenya, like she was her own, from the regular updates to the loving attention she gave throughout the stay. Each message and photo made it clear that Kenya was not only safe and happy but genuinely bonding with Jeannette. On top of that, I ran into a terrible thunderstorm that delayed my return home, and Jeannette was so understanding and flexible. Her kindness gave me one less thing to worry about, which I can’t thank her enough for. I truly can’t recommend her highly enough! She’s truly a gem!

Katie is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! She was very communicative and sent a bunch of pictures during our dog’s weeklong stay. We’re so thankful for Katie and the excellent care she provided to our dog!

Ruby was absolutely fantastic with Jackson! We are so appreciative of the extra care she gave him during a week when he was having bladder control issues. She walked him frequently, gave updates and photos all day long, and was caring and attentive to his needs. She was terrific! Highly recommend Ruby! Thank you again!

Meiqi took great care of my dog Ernie! She sent frequent updates, took him to the dog park almost every day, and ensured he was safe and having fun.

We boarded with Shi Shi for one night, will definitely board with her again! She was responsive, attentive to our pets needs (somewhat spoiled pup), and sent us regular updates and photos. We highly recommend her!!!

Summer was amazing!! My dog is an anxious girl and she warmed up to summer super quickly. I also was sent all the pictures in the world, it made me feel like I was with them walking🥹 she took my dog out multiple times a day, had no problem with eating and my dog even had chances to play with other dogs which she loves. I’ll be booking with summer again for sure!:)

I couldn’t have asked for better care for my pup! From the moment we had a video call with Mr. Adeel to dropping Puli off, it was clear that he was in loving and attentive hands. Mr. Adeel and his wonderful sons went above and beyond, showering him with constant affection, pampering him, even going the extra mile to seek my approval and making him a home cooked meal. It was heartwarming to see how much joy and attention they gave him, provided me with constant updates and pictures which gave me complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find people who care for your dog like their own, but this father and son trio did exactly that. Without a doubt, they are on top of my list, the next time Puli needs a little vacation of his own! Thank you Mr. Adeel and the boys! Puli already misses you dearly.

Paulette was great with mini and was so communicative! Sent pictures constantly and made me feel so assured that mini was being taken care of well. Will absolutely rebook in the future!

Jo Jo was well taken care of. He came home non the worse for wear. I really think he missed the companionship that he had with the dogs as well as Sal. I readily booked him for the following weekend.

Lauren was great, she regularly sent updates of our chi, and Gigi came back extremely happy. We will definitely be using Lauren again for dog boarding.

Jennifer was great with Georgie! She was really accommodating and easy to communicate with. I knew I could trust her right away and she sent lots of pictures and videos. I could see Georgie felt right at home!

Lauren took wonderful care of my puppy after scheduling a three-day boarding on very short notice. I was incredibly appreciative of the frequent photo and video updates, which made me confident he was having a great time. Lauren was super responsive and flexible, and I would not hesitate to book with her again.

Alexa is fantastic! She took care of Banksy like he was her own - she is care, attentive and communicative.

Stephanie was phenomenal!! She took care of our 6yr old rescue for ten days while we were out of the country. I’m someone who always gets nervous leaving my dog for a long time, but Stephanie made me feel instantly reassured that our baby was in the best of hands. Our husky/shepherd mix can be a handful but Stephanie is a true professional and became our dog’s new bff. Would leave 10/5 stars if I could.
