Dog Boarding Riverdale

“Essence is the best! I know my dogs are in great hands with her. She is always flexible with us, she sends us updates without us having to ask, my dogs are always happy when they leave her place. She is the best and I am so grateful for her. Xoxo thank you Essence.”

“Iliana was absolutely wonderful. Our dog, Cali, stayed with Iliana for 6 nights and she took great care of her and even washed her before we picked her up. We will definitely be using her as our go-to sitter from now on.”

“Very happy dog. Everyone went smoothly and I’m especially happy to have received updates about how our boy was doing via videos. That goes a long way for nervous pet parents!”

“Jada was excellent taking care of my dog Coco. She kept sending me photos, Even though Coco made a mess on her bed, I’m so sorry about that, Jada. But if I go away again, I would definitely leave my dog Coco with Jada again. Thank you so much for everything!”

“I couldn’t have picked a better sitter for Obi! From the very first meet and greet, I could tell Stephanie and Corey were amazing. They’re both so kind and truly love dogs. Since it was my first time leaving Obi, I was pretty nervous, but they took the time to learn about Obi’s routine and what makes him feel at home, which really meant a lot. They sent so many photos and videos throughout his stay, from the funny moments to the everyday things, and it made me so happy to see how relaxed and loved he looked. He instantly clicked with Izzy and Luna, and seeing them all together was the cutest thing ever. He even ended up liking their toys more hahaha! Stephanie and Corey went above and beyond to make Obi feel right at home. I’m so thankful for how much love and care they gave him. We’ll definitely be rebooking soon!”

“We left our little girl Violet, a very loved 5 yo Lhasa Apso, in the care of Sandra and San this past weekend. From the moment Sandra and I met, I could see how loving and caring she was for her own adorable pup, Penny. We did a meet and greet and Violet and Penny got along beautifully! We knew Violet would be in good hands. Throughout the weekend, we received pictures and we could see just how comfortable and happy Violet was! When it was pickup time, all her belongings were together and packed for home. We felt comfortable, confident and excited to find a place we can trust for Violet when she can’t be with us! We highly recommend Sandra and San! Your pups will thank you for it too!”

“Alyona was terrific with my puppy Bennet. She sent pictures and updates throughout Bennet’s stay and assured me that she was doing well. Alyona was inquisitive about Bennet’s habits and likes and that clearly translated into how she cared for my puppy during her stay. I will absolutely rebook in the future.”

“I booked Steve after a communication issue with the previously booked sitter very close to the holiday. It was a little nervewracking because he's new to the platform, but Steve was great with Sammy! When I dropped Sam off, he asked a lot of questions about his routines and behaviors and you can tell that he really cares about your dog's experience. He was good about sending pictures and details throughout our trip about how Sam was doing. He was even able to get Sam to play fetch a bit, which he never does! Dropoff and pickup were easy to coordinate. Even when we returned a bit later than anticipated, Steve was easy going about it. I picked up a very happy, rested pup! I'll definitely be using Steve again!”

“Jocelyn was fantastic! She provided daily pictures and videos of how our dog was doing, and went above and beyond to take care of her. Would recommend highly!”

“Binta is an all-star and a consummate professional! My dog loved her right away. Binta made sure my dog stayed on a comforting routine, gave her lots of attention, made sure she got a lot of outdoor time and exercise, etc. Binta’s updates were extremely detailed and featured lots of cute pictures. Her place is cozy, clean, and organized, making it an ideal home away from home for your furry loved one. We will definitely call on Binta again the next time we travel.”

“Best ever. She was very understanding about my delayed traveling and babysat my dog for an extra 12 hours free of charge! Shes very sweet, caring, and I could tell my dog was very happy after a 3 night stay. Highly recommend”

“Samantha is such a blessing to my dog and I. I needed care and support watching my toy poodle and she came through!! My dog really likes her! I can tell when I come to pick him up - he has enjoyed his stay! I look forward to booking her again !!”

Kenya T.

“Anali went above and beyond for my dog during his stay. She constantly sent pictures and videos and even trained my dog and gave me tips/tricks on how to train him. My dog absolutely loves her and her family. She was able to accommodate an early drop off and late pick up. I will definitely be booking again!”

Stephanie M.

“My miniature schnauzer had a great time with Rhinesca’s dogs, he seemed to be having the time of his life when they met, running around her yard. Daily communication and photos. We’d be happy to leave Tux with them again. Recommend!”

John S.

“Excellent job! Vivian went above and beyond the call of duty. Communication was highly professional, She was a great cat sitter, fast response and very affordable! Would absolutely leave my baby again with her if I'm away again! ... Very friendly & helpful. She kept me updated with photos and the communication was great too. Absolutely recommending her services.”

“Noelle was a fantastic caretaker for our dog, Dodger. She helped out last minute, watching him for the weekend. He usually gets a little stressed after car rides and being left with strangers but he warmed up easily. Noelle sent great pictures and updates during the weekend and we will definitely be reaching out to her again!”

Anna S.

“Priyanka and her husband showed great care for Sage during his 4 day 3 night stay. They are stellar animal lovers and will be my go to whenever Sage has boarding needs.”

“5 STARS!!!! Victor is a loving and talented pet person. He saved me in a last minute travel situation! I have a big & powerful dog who is doing her best to be good & calm, but does not always nail it! He was AMAZING with her!! I could tell that she felt totally comfortable and loved the whole 2 weeks I was gone. He walked her a lot and was very understanding about her special attributes & need to destroy toys. She slept in bed with him & was allowed on the couch, which was really comforting for her. I booked him the day before I left town and he was professional, pleasant & flexible with timing. He obviously has a great connection with animals & is an overall lovely person to communicate with on the daily (he sent pics & videos everyday). This is the first time I have picked her up after being away that she is genuinely happy & chill. Def book him!! I have recommended him to my whole family & all of my loved ones who own dogs. He lives on a quiet street with really wide sidewalks, good if your dog has dog reactivity. Perfect experience from start to finish.”

“Cindy & her family were absolutely wonderful. They were so helpful & able to accommodate an extended stay after major flight cancellations & delays. They took such good care of my fur baby he literally didn’t want to leave them. Thank you for everything!”
