1. Nheli M.

“Nheli was absolutely wonderful! She came a day before our booking to meet Shayna and get acclimated with her, and on babysitting day, Shayna couldn't have been happier! She was super comfortable with Nheli (even during a rainstorm, which says something!) Nheli was responsive, and sent a bunch of adorable photos. Would love to work with her again!”




2. Stephanie P.

“We used Stephanie to care for our two Cane Corso's while we were away for a week out of the country. She was excellent! She confirmed a week before as well as the day before, arrived early and gave us daily updates with great feedback and cute photos. Our dogs can be intimidating to new people but Stephanie felt right at home with them and they loved her. We arrived home to calm, happy dogs and a spotless house. She even had a little doggie gift for our pups! We are so happy to have found such an amazing caregiver for our pups. We will absolutely be booking her again.”


3. Aaron O.

“Once again, Aaron stepped in at the last minute for me and was so helpful! He went above and beyond, even when he had other priorities and his own dog to take care of. I am so impressed with his communication, the pictures he sends, and the love he has for my pup!”


4. Sierra C.

“Sierra stayed at my apartment in the BX to watch my 45lb rescue pittie for three weeks in May, and I highly recommend her! She was responsive and so generous coming all the way from NJ to meet my pup and me first and incredibly responsive before the day of. Every day she sent me text and/photo updates, and it was super clear my pup was very well cared for and loved. Coming back, pup was happy and healthy and the apartment was clean as I left it (thanks, Sierra!).”


5. Leah A.
“Leah is an outstanding pet sitter who did a wonderful job taking care of our Boxer Shepherd mix, Riley. She stayed in our home while we were away for 10 days so that Riley, a senior dog who gets anxious, would be able to be in the environment where he’s most comfortable. She was very attentive to his needs and took him on several walks every day. She provided regular updates and didn’t hesitate to ask if a question came up. Having Leah in charge made us feel very comfortable since we were out of the country. We will absolutely hire Leah again and could not recommend her more highly.”


6. Peter W.

“Pete went above and beyond! Incredible job as far as attention to detail and instructions. Very nice guy who kept us completely in the loop the entire time we were gone. Pete is easily the best dogsitter we’ve ever had and our dogs can’t wait to have him back. Whatever is above a perfect rating is what we’d rate him.”


7. Ayanna S.

“I was very pleased with the service provided by Ayanna. She took very good care of my pets and home. She was attentive to every details including following the instructions that was provided. She has a very kind and warm spirit with the animals and handles them with a gentle touch. She treated my pets as if they were her own and it showed in their behavior...happy, playful and purring. She kept me updated every step of the way which was a delight to see and experience. I will DEFINITELY be using her in the future. THANK YOU AYANNA😊”


8. Chelsea S.

“My dog Demi is an older girl and requires a little extra care given her age and Chelsea was great with meeting her needs! Chelsea updated me regularly and was respectful of my home and kept my space neat. I would definitely recommend”


9. Savanna T.


“Savanna and Maddy took amazing care of our shy cat. We got updates daily with pictures and a summary on how she was doing, and it was very evident that Savanna was extremely knowledgable about cats and was treating ours with both love and respect. We came back to a clean home and a happy cat, and are planning to book with them again. I would 100% recommend these ladies to anyone looking for a sitter who has buckets of love to give and the knowledge to back it up.”


10. Ellie K.

“Ellie did a fantastic job caring for our dog while we were out for the evening. She sent updates on how he was doing throughout the night to keep our minds at ease, and she was extremely understanding and patient when he had an accident before we left. We highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the area!”


11. Julia L.

“As always Julia is wonderful with the fur babies when we r away Best thing to have her in our home with them. They are taken care of like her own and house is immaculate when she leaves.”


12. Farrah G.

“Farrah was able to help us on short notice when our other sitter cancelled. We have two anxious pups that she did a beautiful job taking care of. She was very communicative, followed all instructions, sent pictures and updates, and most importantly, clearly loves animals. We were so grateful for her help. She did an excellent job and we didn’t have to worry about our dogs at all while they were in her care.”


13. Wendy W.
“Wendy's pet care is truly wonderful! Her genuine love for animals shines through in every interaction, and she goes above and beyond to ensure their comfort and happiness. I have complete trust in her abilities. Whether it's providing attentive care, administering medications, or simply offering a comforting presence, she handles every situation with utmost professionalism and compassion. Wendy's reliability is another aspect that sets her apart. She is consistently punctual and dependable, and she communicates effectively, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. Her dedication to her work is evident, and she treats each pet as if it were her own. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and attentive pet caregiver. She creates a safe and nurturing environment, and I have complete peace of mind knowing my pets are in her capable hands.”

15. Santos B.
About: I’ve had a lot of experience boarding/walking dogs. My experience comes from working with “Linda’s pet Nannies” a family run business in Weschester NY that provides services that range from boarding to drop ins. We love getting to meet and build relationships with news pets and their owners. I’ve learned many things while working with Linda (My Aunt) including different breeds and dog behavior. Im used to working with up to 5 dogs at the same time and feeding/medicating multiple dogs on time based on the owners preference. Which has allowed me to do well in otherwise chaotic environments. I’m currently a reservist for the Marine Corps so I’m only unavailable one weekend a month. Overall I just love working with animals as a hobby


16. Cynthia O.
“Cynthia loves our dog like she is her own! I trust her implicitly and really find comfort in the fact that she has first-hand experience with epileptic dogs. I'm always able to relax on vacation when our dog and home are in Cynthia's care. We will continue to utilize her services for a long time to come!”


17. Aya R.

“The best ! Super sweet and accommodating”


18. Micki S.

“Micki took excellent overnight care of our golden retriever. She was proactive and communicated well with us, bonded immediately with Leo and was highly responsible and responsive. We would absolutely call on Micki again and would highly recommend her to others!”


19. Yvette B.

“Yvette was awesome! She kept our dog company during a family wedding. She sent lots of pictures and was flexible as our plans changed. We have already recommended her to our family who are looking for a new sitter!! Thank you Yvette!”


20. Hayley W.
“Hayley has watched my dog before, and she proved to be a great dog sitter who was very responsible. She was extremely reliable, and I was very content with the care I received. She fed, walked, and played with my dog while I was out of the house. I am so grateful that I was able to leave the care of my dog in such great hands!”
