“When I picked up Rocky at the end of our visit, he was calm and happy and not particularly excited to see me. This is the highest possible praise for Nicole. Normally my dog is an anxious mess after not seeing me for even a few hours, so he must have felt safe and been extremely well cared-for. Pick up and drop off were seamless, Nicole sent just enough pictures and updates. I highly recommend her.”
“I dropped Buddy off the morning of 4/9 and picked him up on the 14th. Devin sent a text with pictures to show that Buddy had setteled in and playing with the other dogs. When we got home he slept the day away so I can only assume he had a good time. I would recommend Devin in a heart beat. Next time we need somebody Devin will definitely be the one I call”
“I left my golden retriever with Briana for the weekend. She provided pictures, updates, and my dog was happy as can be during pickup. He played great with her dog and I will definitely use her again.”
“Brooke was great, able to take our puppy in on short notice so we could attend a concert at Tanglewood, and very attentive to his needs. A great help if you are coming from out of town and unsure where to leave your pup for a few hours or overnight”
“Ericca was so lovely and accommodating to our timing. She is a pro and has her routine down for how best to make dogs feel comfortable, introduce them to her dogs. Our dog looked happy when we picked her up and even gave her a sweet goodbye out the window.”
“John was very communicative, sensitive to dog’s different needs, and from talking with him I can tell he really cares about each individual dog. I picked my pup up tired and happy!”
“Amazing sit for my pup. I could just tell Tatiana loves animals and took to my little Zoe (4 y/o mini Aussie) right away. Got some photo updates and was super responsive to messaging. Highly recommend!”
“This is our third time boarding our 2.5 y/o puppy Moose with Jess, and when we dropped Moose off yesterday, he was so excited to see her, he ran right over and made the noises we associate with big happy emotions. It’s so nice to drop Moose off with someone he obviously loves. We trust Jess and appreciate her care and flexibility. We’ll definitely entrust Moose to her again soon.”
“Jennifer was a great sitter for my dog Choppo. He can be a handful in terms of energy but she didn't seem phased by it at all. She is very kind and a good communicator. I'm looking forward to booking with her again!”
“Pepper stayed with Laura for 3 nights while we went away. We felt at ease leaving her, knowing she would be well taken care of. We were not wrong. When we went to pick her up I could tell she had made a new friend and was comfortable with Laura. I am so thankful we picked Laura to take care of Pepper.❤️”
“Mikkal’s place was perfect for our energetic pup. She had plenty of space to play and came home happy and tired out. Mikkal was very responsive and gave frequent updates. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Yenifer took excellent care of my dog. He was so happy with her! She made sure she communicated everyday with us during the stay, sent us pictures and updates. We are very happy with her services and would strongly recommend her. Thank you, Yenifer.”
About: As a psychiatric nurse, I offer gentle, attentive care to people in vulnerable moments. I bring the same calm, respectful presence to the pets I care for. Their feelings and situations are accounted for while I tend to their personal needs. I work part-time on an as needed basis and can work around the schedules of my clients. Available on short notice, including nights, and 12-24 hours' notice is preferred. I have a lightly fenced yard and two friendly dogs. A canine guest may be offered crating for sleep, or they are welcome to bring their own bed. Must be cat friendly. If caring for a pet in a client's home, care will be provided in their own environment precisely as they are used to.
“Our dog had a fabulous stay with Mahayla! Since it was our first time, Mahayla offered to come to our home to get to know our pup before caring for her the next day. They hit it off immediately and Mahayla explained her background in animal/dog behavior studies and reassured us that all would go well... and it did! Our pup had a blast trail hiking and also just relaxing at Mahayla's home. Mahayla clearly understands and loves dogs, and it was clear that she was focused on our dog's enjoyment, comfort level and care. She was also focused on our needs as the owners. Leading up to care day she was extremely responsive. On care day she sent photos and updates. A perfect stay...thanks, Mahayla!”
About: Lifelong dog person, I have cared for dozens of furry friends, mine and others. I currently have a 4 year old Shepherd Mix.

About: Retired Military Veteran, 12 years of service. Very reliable and love animals. I love all breeds of dogs regardless of the stereotypes. Can’t wait to start watching your dogs. I have a vast background, military and emergency services. I’m in the process of becoming a nys emt and then will go on for my paramedic hopefully my flight medic. I’ve grown up with dogs and haven’t had a dog in a year. Feel free to look up my information in the military to know that I’m a veteran. I am always available even for a last minute vacation. My husband and I would love to help who ever needs that extra tlc while their owners go away. I’m home all day every day. I work overnights so my hubby could let your little or big pups out to go potty before work. They will have free range of the house unless they are specifically crated then I can put them in the crate and take them out when needed.
