“Kecia was great for watching my dog for 1 night! I had to book her last minute and she was really responsive and fast to my request. My dog Riley had a great time staying at her place with other dog companions. Would definitely use her again!”
“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 is a superstar! My dog absolutely loves staying with her and her children. He’s completely integrated into their lives (even for school drop off). Since my dog is a puppy, Kira even helped train him how to go to the bathroom outside which was so helpful. She’s communicative, sends updates, and always makes sure both of us have peace of mind. I can go on and on about how much we love Kira and I couldn’t recommend her enough. Thank you Kira!”
“Eva and Tyler took great care of my pup! Provided frequent updates and were quick to respond and easy to coordinate with. Would absolutely recommend them!”
“Amy was great. It was my first time using Rover and Amy was very responsive to concerns. She took great care of my 3 konrh old kitten. Thank you Amy!”
“Kylie was attentive, caring and well versed! She gave my dog so much tender, love and care( even got a bath and beautiful bandana)! Would completely recommend”
“David is absolutely wonderful! This was the first time David watched Harley and it was for almost two weeks. Not a day went by that I didn’t receive several updates with lots of pictures of Harley about town. David took such great care of Harley and really helped ease any separation anxiety I had. I highly, highly recommend David - he’s incredible!!”
“Nirvana is an absolute professional. I messed up my booking time and when I noticed my mistake on the day of the booking she was responsive and helped to ensure my puppy was still taken care of despite my mistake. On top of that I know how much my dog loves being with Nirvana because she pulled me back to Nirvana’s apartment door after being back with me! She communicates throughout the visit and sends photos of my pup which I love - cannot recommend her enough!”
“Tory is amazing!!! This was the first time we boarded Roger and we had a great experience. She sent so many pictures of Roger playing and running around as well as updates throughout the day. Roger came home happy and exhausted from playing with the other dogs! I know he was in excellent hands!”
“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 :)”
“My dog enjoyed his stay with Thomas! I know this because after I picked him up, he wanted to go back to Thomas’ building. Will definitely rebook!”
“Mari is the best! She’s super responsive and reliable. And Mulan was so comfortable in her care. It easy to be at ease when we drop Mulan off with Mari!”
“Lika and her family are incredible! They gave so much love to Louis while he stayed with them that it made completely clear that he was safe and happy. He stayed with them for almost three weeks, and she send us pictures every day. I’ll definitely leave Louis with them again!”
“Anne was amazing with our Australian Shepherd. She gave us updates every morning, afternoon, and night and went out of her way to make sure our dog was happy and cared for. I was also really impressed with Anne’s knowledge of dogs transitioning to new people and separation anxiety in dogs. It was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker!”
“Junaid was very professional and took great care of my puppy 👍🏻 I am happy with his services 🤠 highly recommend!! He made sure that she was comfortable and had a great time!”
“Angie was incredible!!! So responsive and sent the best updates of Georgia multiple times a day. It’s clear she got so much love and attention. We will absolutely be using her again. Thank you so much, Angie!!!”

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.
Thanks for taking care of butter again! As always much appreciated and great piece of mind knowing he’s in good hands. Glad he got to tour the firehouse and made new friends!
Rachel was a thoughtful and engaged sitter from the outset. I appreciated that she wanted to do a meet and greet both for her comfort and my dog’s comfort. She was communicative through the whole stay, even updating me that she and my pup were safe when things went horribly wrong nearby in NYC. Hester loved her stay and already asked to go back!
Ilana is the best!! My dog absolutely loved her, and she was really responsive and great with communication. My dog felt so at home with her during the week he stayed with her (first time ever!), and he came back the most relaxed I’ve ever seen him after staying with a sitter. I’ll definitely book Ilana again!
