“Erica was awesome with our 3 yr old goldendoodle. She kept us updated throughout the day and sent pictures. He had a great time (at least thats what my dog told me, hehe) I definitely plan on sending him back to Erica next time he needs to be watched.”


“I will start off by stating Pamela truly a magnetic bubbly human being, her energy alone made me feel safe leaving Keanu in her care. Keanu he felt right at home immediately, and there was an instantaneous connection. Her home is immaculate, a great dog setting which in turn is 100% inviting for all pups. She is a gem and so is her animal loving hubby Jose. The countless videos, pictures are perfect and just makes me feel comfortable throughout his stay with Pamela. She shares her nutritious food and treats and he actually ate well (mini poodle picky eater). You will not be disappointed she is a true animal lover....her vibrant energy begins at her door and just elevates the owner and doggie like magic. Keanu is now a repeat daycare client and would have zero concerns when I need boarding. Thank you PAMELA”


“Michael was fantastic with my 60+ lb. puppy, Stella, while I was out of town! He handled her energy like a pro, giving her plenty of exercise with walks and backyard playtime, and made sure she got time to relax indoors too. I got daily updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Drop-offs and pickups were prompt, and it was clear Stella had a blast. Highly recommend Michael!”


“Nieves.O was really helpful and made sure my Dog Nas was well taken care of and enjoyed his day so much he slept all through night.”

“Goldie had a good first day. Eva kept me updated throughout the day and included pics. She is already sound asleep snoring LOUDLY. 👍🏾 More tomorrow as we’re back for day 2.”


“Alba greeted us warmly and made Max feel very comfortable. She kept in touch during the day, sending photos, and I knew Max was in good hands. I will definitely be using Alba again! Max had a great day 😊”


About: Here’s a combined description for both cats and dogs, incorporating your experience with each: Hi, I’m Anna! I’ve spent 33 years caring for cats and 8 years working with dogs, providing loving, personalized care for pets of all ages. Whether it's walking dogs, administering medication to senior pets, or providing cuddles and attention during overnight stays, I’m here to ensure your pets feel safe and happy while you’re away. My own calm cats, Dracula and Mina, have been with me since they were kittens (they are now 12 & 10 years old), so I know just how unique each pet’s needs can be. From playtime to medication or just keeping them company, your furry family members will be in caring hands with me! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I run a hair care and aerial silks entertainment business, both of which offer me a lot of flexibility. This gives me plenty of free time to dedicate to watching dogs and providing the attention they need. I enjoy balancing my professional work with caring for animals, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to ensure your pets get the best care possible! When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize their comfort and safety. If necessary, I can set up a separate room away from my cats to ensure a calm environment for the visiting pet. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities for exercise. In my clients' homes, I follow their routines and preferences, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved. I make sure to adhere to any specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and medication. My goal is to create a stress-free atmosphere for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own.

“Django is always happy to go to Joanna. She takes great care of him and receiving pictures throughout the day showing what Django is doing makes me feel great knowing that he is being well cared for. I highly recommend Joanna to care for your bestie.”


“Michelle is great with my pup. She’s very attentive , he loves going there and I always feel at ease.”


About: I have 20+ years of caring for animals of all types. My own dog was unfortunately allergic to grass and almost every type of food. He needed to receive weekly injections in the nape of his neck which I would administer as well as following his prescription protocols to the tee. As the general manager of several different Petcos and PetSmart's, I have amassed quite a bit of knowledge about many animals, especially dogs. I am a nutrition specialist, have experience in grooming, am knowledgeable of natural and medicinal ways to calm hyperactivity, and have extensive experience in many different types of training from proper walking, issuing commands, house breaking, interacting with other dogs, and multiple other aspects of whatever is necessary. If I cannot answer your questions, the trustworthy contacts I have amassed throughout my tenure at these establishments would be more than happy to help with their vast wealth of information. I have also had the unpleasant experience of helping dogs who are experiencing life threatening health complications and know what I am capable of, an also when it is time to seek medical attention. All credentials aside, I truly do love and appreciate animals of all kinds and can't wait to meet yours! I currently work part time and my job is a 2 minute drive from my house so your animal will never be left alone for more than an hour or less. I have a fenced in yard with trees on all sides. I live across the street from an elementary school with a massive fenced in field which is where I like to walk and play fetch and other games with dogs. I have been given carte blanche by the workers there as I have lived here for so many years so I can come and go as I please without any interference.

About: My passion is taking care of others, including your pets! I have had a dog in the home since I was 12 years old. I find that the love we give and receive to animals is special and important. Please contact me for any scheduling concerns! I have a dog of my own who I make sure gets 3-4 30min-2 hour walks/day so if your pup is staying with me those are guaranteed. I have also been a volunteer EMT for 5 years, which has given me a lot of responsibility and experience. I take a break from this when I am in school. I have been a nanny upwards of 8 years who's families all had pets! I have a dog of my own who I love and care for daily. He has made me happy in so many ways and I only hope to do the same for your pets too. My dog is very well behaved and disciplined while also loving other dogs! If your dog is not friendly with other animals that is no problem for the daily walk. If your dog is a bit older or just not crazy about other dogs also no problem- my dog is a vibe matcher he will always back off if another dog is uninterested. If your dog does get along with other dogs great news, my dog will definitely tire them out!

“Nachay was very accommodating and made our first sitter experience a breeze! She sits a few dogs already so Bentley had friends to keep him company! We took a day trip out of the state and weather delays/traffic made us later than the scheduled pickup time but Nachay made it easy. She also sent us pictures throughout the day and kept in contact with us. Will definitely be looking to book again! Thank you so much for taking good care of Bentley :)”


“As soon as I met Cynthia I felt at ease knowing my 14 year old boy was in good hands. Professional, communicates, sent pictures. The house was clean and had a warming family feel to it. It was nice being at work knowing he was safe and in good hands. Ronan my dog was VERY comfortable as well. For when we first got there he walked right in and didn't even look back for me. I HIGHLY recommend and I already have other days booked.”


“Kelsey is amazing! From the initial booking Kelsey was a great communicator! Lots of pics/video throughout the day. Our standard poodle is an active boy and Kelsey kept him engaged. Highly recommend her services. We will definitely book with Kelsey again!”


“It took me a few days of research before I contacted a few people in this app. We met with Gloria and I really liked her and her home. We decided to give it a try and leave our 6 month old puppy for a daycare. Our baby is not very socialized and I was a little nervous how she will interact with other dogs. And of course it’s scary to leave her for the first time. Everything went smoothly as far as I can tell. Gloria sent pictures and our puppy was in a great mood when we picked her up. I’m very happy and we will definitely come back”


“Alexander was so amazing! He was very accommodating with times of pick up and drop off. We met him and his dog before to make sure both dogs got along and then used him on 2 different occasions. He was so good with milo and we will be using him in the future if needed!!! Thank you Alexander!!!”


About: I’ve had a love for dogs since I was blessed with my 15 year old cavapoo Princess when I was 8! I treat every dog as I would family ❤️ and know exactly what makes each and every dog unique so I can make them happy. I’ve had experience watching medium/bigger dogs as well and love them all equally! I’ve worked as a kennel tech at a dog daycare in Atlanta for one year. I was also a Lifeline Animal Project Volunteer I want to be able to do something I love while here in NY. I was blessed with a work from home position which grants me the flexibility to do so. In my home I have a 15 year old cavapoo who is the sweetest dog ever, she loves company! I’ll follow any rules you have in your home all while keeping your dog happiest!

“Andrea is truly a dog whisperer, my dog was so happy to be with her and was sad to leave her. We will Definitely be using her services again. Thank you!!”


“Karina took great of our Cali so we could enjoy a day in the City. She sent regular pictures and updates throughout the day. It was a great experience for Cali and us.”

I can tell he cares about her as if she were his own. His love for animals, especially dogs, shines throughout his work. He has trained dogs, administered many types of medication, & I don’t believe he is scared of any animals as I have seen him deal with a variety of species. I highly recommend Andy’s services to anyone!”
