Dog Boarding in New York

“Katerina has been a big help, my dog seems very comfortable and happy with her. She’s pretty responsive and flexible which I really appreciate”

About: I offer a boutique, limited-client approach to pet care focused on attention, consistency, and trust. I intentionally keep my client list small so each pet receives individualized care and a calm, safe experience. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, and I pay close attention to each animal’s comfort, behavior, and routine. I’m comfortable supporting puppies who need structure and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, patience, medication support, or extra attentiveness. What sets me apart is a combination of hands-on animal care, strong communication, and a thoughtful, observant approach. I hold a Master’s degree in psychology, which informs how I read behavior, respond calmly, and build trust with both animals and people. I’m also a professional photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to offer attentive, personalized care. I love photographing pets and people, and I enjoy sharing thoughtful photo updates during walks or stays so owners feel connected and reassured. I provide dog walking, pet sitting, and overnights with safety, reliability, and clear communication as priorities. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care so pets feel comfortable and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine alongside my work as a professional photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop ins, and overnight care. I intentionally keep a limited client list so I can provide dependable, personalized attention and maintain consistency for the pets in my care. I am available for weekday, evening, and weekend care, including holiday bookings. I prioritize safety, consistency, and a calm environment while respecting each pet’s routine and comfort level. In a client’s home, I follow feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully, keep doors and leashes secure, and pay close attention to behavior and wellbeing. I maintain a clean, low stress environment, provide thoughtful supervision, and communicate clearly with photo updates and check ins so owners feel informed and reassured.

“Minako was so great with my pup! She sent pictures almost every day and responded very quickly to my questions. Will definitely be booking with Minako and her husband again!”

“Jen is the absolute best. Super accommodating and loving. My dog was so relaxed when she came home. It was if she was on a spa vacation. Lots of photos and communication from her. Will rebook asap!”

Mayra C.

“Chandni and her partner Issac were fantastic to our cat Olivia and I cannot recommend them enough!! We boarded at their place for a little over a week because we were hosting some family in our small apartment. We got updates with photos and videos of Olivia every few hours which was so helpful, and they even got her some new toys! We really appreciate Chandni and Issac for taking care of Olivia like their own. Thank you again!!”

“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”

Rachel Q.

“Anastasiia is a wonderful sitter! Communication was easy and seamless, she gave us daily updates and was very accommodating for pick up and drop off. I felt assured Ginger was in great hands while we were away.”

Kiana L.

“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”

“Bailey went above and beyond! She sent updates with pictures and took care of my dog so well! I highly recommend Bailey to anyone looking for pet care.”

Nate C.

“Sarah gave Dante an outstanding stay caring for him while we were away visiting family do 3 days. She sent plenty of photos and kept us updated several times a day on how he was doing. She took Dante on 2-3 walks a day and gave him plenty of opportunities to make new furry friends at Central Park. Highly recommend Sarah and hope we can work together again!”

“Bridget was so caring, attentive, and provided updates throughout my little guys stay. A+ and will be using her again!”

Connor C.

“Farrah had another fantastic stay at Ian and Clementina’s! They shared numerous updates, photos, and videos during her multi day stay at their apartment, and came back super happy!!”

Ananya R.

“Christine is awesome! It was clear she is knowledgeable and experienced with cats, and gave the utmost care to mine while he boarded with her. She provided many updates, always replied promptly to any of my questions and was very accommodating concerning the pick up time. I would absolutely board my cat with her again!”

Deena H.

“Laura does a great job with my shy man Archie. I needed someone to watch him over the Christmas Holiday (I was so sad to leave him) and Laura made sure to send me lots of pictures of my snuggle bug. Her dog Rex helped Archie feel comfortable and I felt calmer knowing my little man was in such good hands / paws.”

Constance L.

“Angelique was a lifesaver. She took care of our sweet boy while we were away for the weekend. She was so attentive and communicative when he had unexpected stomach issues and made sure our boy was well taken care of. Truly appreciate her and could not recommend more highly!”

Courtney A.

“Kecia did a great job with our Harper girl over a long weekend! She sent lots of pictures and updates so that we knew Harper was safe and happy. She went out of her way to make our pup comfortable. And - Harper loved the back yard!”

Kara S.

“Ethel took care of our cavapoo, Max, for 10 days, and we are so thankful he was in such great hands! She updated us constantly on how he was doing, kept him safe and happy, and sent us so many pictures of him enjoying his walks and play time under her care. She was timely, thorough, and we would 100% trust Ethel next time to watch our dog in the future. Thank you again, Ethel!!”

“Meg was wonderful and took excellent care of our (sometimes grumpy!) dog, Bruno. She has extensive experience with animals of all temperaments, was consistently responsive to messages, and proactively sent daily updates. While we were away, we had abundant peace of mind that Bruno was doing well and in caring hands. Most tellingly, when Meg dropped him off, Bruno was more interested in sniffing her and her car rather than saying hi to us, which to us epitomizes how great of a time he had in Meg’s care. She was very accommodating, generally as well as with drop off / pick-up, understanding of Bruno’s odd tendencies, and happy to indulge his absolute obsession with fetch. We will certainly be reaching out again in the future when we next need someone to look after our pup.”

“David was amazing! Communication was consistent and adorable and I really felt like Roman was welcomed into his family. He was amazingly chill when I picked him up, not straining to get to me like he usually is, which I think says it all about the excellent care he received at David’s home. I would recommend him to anyone!”

Lauren B.

“Luisa was amazing with my Pit Bull / Lab Obi. She constantly updated me with texts and images on how he was doing. She is such a nice woman and I will definitely trust her with my dog again. Thank You!”
