“Alison and Jason are the best! Meeko gets so much attention and excercise while in their care and is always excited when we get to their door. They also put special care into his sting habits (he doesn’t always want to eat) and send lots of cute pics of him throughout the dayt. We are so glad to have them nearby.”

“Nayeli is so amazing! She treats all the dogs like they’re her own and my pup had such a great time hanging out with her dogs. She sends updates and photos throughout the day so I know he was having a good time and getting energy out. Highly recommend if you need a daycare for your furry buddies.”

“Finding the right sitter for my two cavapoos is very important to me as they are very sweet but high energy. Thalya is so caring and attentive. She asked questions and followed instructions to the letter. She sent the cutest pictures. She was very flexible and understanding and very honest as well. My pups loved her and I feel super confident in booking her again.”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. A horse when I was 10 dogs, cats and still have dogs, cats and a horse in my life as of now have no problems with ministering medication to any animal. I am retired. Looking for a hobby that I love. I am available all times of the day seven days a week. It may be so. I have five small dogs of my own with a backyard fenced in and a doggie door for them to go in and out as they please.
“Excellent care and attentiveness. My dog was comfortable right away, during a rough week of meeting lots of new people and lots of change. But my dog loves Matthew’s son, which is the secret sauce 🤣”

“Amruta is amazing. Our doggie was so happy with her and didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be booking with her again. She gave us updates on him through the day including photo and kept us at ease while we were away for the day. So grateful we found her. Thank you Amruta :)”

“Ann Marie is a pleasure to work with and you csn just tell how much she loves each dog. She remembers all of my Roxy’s needs and knows her personality so well. . She’s always quick to respond when booking and while she’s caring for my pup. I always know she’s safe and sends me updates through out the day like I’ve requested. She’s flexible and has saved me so many times with last minute dog care for unplanned life events. She lives in a safe neighborhood and her backyard is the perfect sanctuary for play. Truly the best and wouldn’t trust my pup with anyone else.”
About: Aside from growing up caring for animals, I’ve worked at a dog daycare for about a year. During my time there I learned a lot about dog behavior and how to read their body language. Now, I am currently studying canine training and management at SUNY Cobleskill where I work with a variety of canine’s daily. So I am currently on summer break from school, so I can assure you I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I start my day off by making sure my babies are fed and have fresh water, followed by going out for a walk and playing outside for a little! I have a dog and a cat who is very shy. If needed I have a crate that can be used.
About: I Am a loving kind female living in Brooklyn available to walk your pets, I also Do drop in visits (you can be sure your pet is cared for in the best way) and dog-over nights aka boarding (peanut butter and treats on me) mmm. You can trust that your pet will be safe with me, I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old, and I previously rescued pit bulls, I no longer rescue pit bulls and still want to have the companionship that animals bring even for a hour. I occasionally lightly jog so ask about getting your pet a light jog instead that morning walk. I look forward to meeting you and your pet or your baby as you may call them. Ciao !!!!

“This was my first experience using Rover. I needed to find a last minute sitter for my pup while traveling and Mario came through. He was responsive and a good communicator and I could tell my dog would be comfortable with him the moment he answered the door due to his kind and happy energy. Definitely would recommend Mario as a pet sitter.”

About: I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet behind, so my goal is to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m calm, attentive, and great at sticking to routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I provide a safe, loving environment they can relax in. I currently am a student from home so I have more than enough time to take care of your furry companion while you are away. I used to walk my dog around my neighborhood sometimes to the river If it’s really nice out just get her some fresh air. Proper feeding times and bathroom breaks.
About: I am affectionate and I love observing the character of each furry one. I have had very good experiences with the noble hearts of the furry ones. After breakfast I like to write in my diary, fill myself with good vibes with the sun and go out for a walk and meditate, when I come back I take a bath and get ready to go to work, I have a yard and fanced, I don't have furry ones at home but I love taking pictures. I have patiencee ee ee ee e
About: Growing up with 6 dogs in our home at once, I have a special connection and love for animals. Working with rescues, pure breed dogs, females in heat and knowing how to whelp, has given me plenty of experience. I have been boarding dogs in my home for over 7 years. I am home full time, with the occasional errand to run. There is a place to hike, with great trails, right up the road from my home. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can run, play and hangout in the sun. I live on 9 acers, for us to explore and go for walks. I have dogs of my own, so your dog will have plenty of socialization and play time. Raw food diet or special dietary issues are not a problem. Meet and greet is required for all potential stays.

About: Hi! I’m a stay at home mom who absolutely loves animals and being home makes me the perfect person to give your pup lots of attention throughout the day 🤍 I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and grew up with my Yorkie, Asia, who lived to 13. Being a dog mom taught me how important it is to know your fur baby is in safe, loving hands. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with both puppies and senior dogs, including giving oral medication if needed. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I make sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for. My home is cozy with a backyard for safe play, and I have a sweet cat named Woody. I treat every pet like family and always try to stick to their routine so they feel right at home. I’d love to set up a meet & greet beforehand so you can feel confident your pup is happy, safe, and loved 💓 I’m a full time stay at home mom to two precious little girls! and with that your pup will always have company! I balance caring for my little one with walks, playtime, and snuggles for your dog, making sure every pet gets attention and love throughout the day. My kids also have a love for animals as well and are taught how to interact with different animals! My home is cozy and safe, with a dedicated area for your pup to relax and feel at home where I'll have anything your pup needs (You're welcome to provide anything that makes them comfortable as well). I also have a backyard where they can run, play, and get their zoomies out safely. Your fur baby will have a space that’s loving, fun, and stress-free.
“I contacted Loretta last minute asking if she could watch my dog Basil. She responded quickly and was able to accommodate an all day dog sit. Loretta sent me lots of pictures and updates of Basil and her sweet dog Paprika hanging out. I would highly recommend Loretta for your next dog sit!”

“I needed a dog sitter at the last minute because of a schedule change at work. Kait to the rescue! Kait was super easy to communicate with and very responsive and attentive to our pups needs. She sent me updates throughout the day and took excellent care of our Cardi. We will absolutely request her services again. Thanks so much Kait!”

Nayeli was great from start to finish. My original plan fell through at the last minute and I messaged Nayeli the day before my trip. She was super responsive and made things happen quickly. Most importantly, she provided a safe place for my senior dog, including hourly pictures to let me know he was happy. I recommend Nayeli to anyone looking for a safe place for their furry friend(s).

Danielle was incredibly with my little girl lotus. She responded right away to my last minute doggy day care request. Lotus can be quite shy with new people but she took very well to Danielle and had a great time with her dog and had some great cuddle time too. If we are in this area again we would love to book with Danielle again !
