6. Ada hwa tung & Micheli L.

“I really am so happy with the care my dog received here. She was happy and would have probably been happy to stay and play with these wonderful humans! It feels great to know that she is being loved a LOT! Highly recommend.”


7. Quinn K.


“Quinn is fantastic! She was welcoming and loving to my pup. She kept me updated throughout the day with regular photos and comments which I loved receiving. My pup was exhausted from running and playing all day with her doggies in her large, fenced in yard. My pup & I look forward to him returning to her top-notch care!”


8. Sydney B.

“Sydney took our two large dogs so I could concentrate on enjoying the company of my young grandchildren without concern of them being knocked over. We dropped them in the morning and picked up at night. We got pictures of them going on good walks, and Sydney was great about responding to texts. We would definitely have her watch our boys again.”


9. Barbara Esther E.


“Very satisfied with Barbara’s care of our senior Yorkie. Barbara was quick to respond to messages and she followed some pretty detailed instructions to the letter. And she sent several pictures during the day.”


10. Susan L.

“Susan was so willing to take care of my disabled.dog for a night and an afternoon. Susan communicated with me along the way and did everything she could to make my pup comfortable. Susan picked up and dropped off my pup on time and with a smile! Thank you!”


11. Fritz K.

“I was so anxious about sending my dog to day care because he's never been alone or watched by anyone but family and this experience was so above my expectations I am shocked. When I picked up my dog he was all smiles (didn't stop smiling for 2 full hours) and kept trying to go BACK to the house! He had an incredible time making friends with and playing with the other dogs in Fritz's care and I wouldn't even have a second thought about leaving my dog, the center of my entire life, in his care again. In fact I might start sending him to Fritz just so he can play with all the other dogs I've never seen him so tired and happy! Cannot recommend him more!!”


12. Brittany R.

“Brittany was extremely responsive and adapted to our needs. Thank you so much for taking great care of our greyhound”




13. Susan M.


“Susan is the absolute best! Our pup always has a wonderful time playing in the yard with other dogs, and we love getting updates throughout the day. Very relieving to have our girl stay in such a safe and caring place. Thank you Susan :))))) ”


14. Kiyera M.
About: I am a huge lover of dogs! I grew up around around dogs, all sizes. I have a English bulldog girl she is 4 years and old her name is Birkin. She is very sweet and well mannered and we love running around and playing. Fetch with all her balls is our favorite. I live in a quiet neighborhood in the city of Rochester, near Irondequoit to take walks around. My home includes indoor, outdoor and overnight fun welcomed too. No pup will be left outside overnight unless said by owner. Pets are family and I’ll treat yours as my own. I’m happy to answer any questions at anytime! Birkin and I can’t wait to meet new friends. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 2pm. My husband works from home so there is always someone home with your fur baby. I have a fenced yard, with plenty of space and a friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.


15. Gigi C.

“I definitely recommend Gigi and her husband! They are truly passionate about dogs and go above and beyond to provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for their furry guests. Their home is dog friendly and comfortable, with a spacious yard for dogs to play in. They only take in two small dogs at a time, ensuring that each pup gets plenty of attention and care. Their two friendly cavalier mixes are a great addition to the household and help make the experience even more enjoyable for the dogs they're watching. What sets them apart is their commitment to training. They're experienced in working with puppies and are incredibly patient and understanding. My 8 lb chihuahua puppy, Remi, has learned to be confident using the dog door. Most importantly, Remi is always happy and excited to stay with them. I trust them completely and have peace of mind knowing that my pup is in such good hands. I highly recommend their services to any dog owner looking for top-notch care!”


16. Han & Bryan X.
“Han has a genuine love for animals and always goes above and beyond to ensure they are happy, comfortable, and cared for. Her attention to detail and warmth make her a truly exceptional caregiver!”


17. Leah R.
About: I’m a 24-year-old nursing student with a passion for pets, the outdoors, and staying active! With lots of experience caring for family pets and raising five kittens of my own, I’d love to give your furry friends the care and attention they deserve! I’m currently working part time, and full time taking asynchronous classes before I go away for my nursing program. Thus, I have a very flexible schedule and am looking for extra money before my move! I take pride in being organized and respectful, and I’ll follow any instructions you provide to ensure your pets and home are well cared for. Your space and your pets will be in trustworthy hands!


18. Alex P.

“She was very flexible with her hours and she took really good care of my dog. She played with the dog and took her on walks while I was away.”


19. Jacalyn M.

“Jacalyn is awesome with dogs! She watched our miniature pincher while we went to Canada for a week. She sent frequent text updates whenever Ace had his meals and videos when he went on walks or had playtime. She cared for him as if he was her own. She makes you feel at ease while away from your fur friend. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in need of a quality sitter.”


20. Melissa J S.

“Always fantastic, my dog is a nervous little man but seems so comfortable with Melissa and her family that I know when he's with her I don't have to worry at all. Melissa's care is such a relief”
