“Adam was fantastic with our little rescue dog. Our puppy is very skittish and scared of new people, and Adam was so warm, kind, and patient with him. We were appreciative that Adam was so flexible on the timing and that he was so comfortable taking on our difficult pup. Thanks for a great doggy daycare experience!”

“Honestly, she’s more than amazing. She’s guided me to become a better puppy mom as a first time dog owner. Sungmin got out of her way to pick up my dog at 6am in morning almost everyday!!! If that doesn’t show you, her love for dogs idk what will. She sends me pictures & videos throughout the whole day and keeps you updated on everything. My pup loves her and her other dogs so much! So grateful for her. Book her please. Your dog will be in the best hands. 🫶🏼”

“I want to share my experience with Juan and the care he provided to my 3-month-old puppy. I recently got a Westie, and I was very nervous about leaving him with someone so early. Puppies are a lot of work, and in just a quick moment they can get into something harmful. I had so many worries—what if he eats something he shouldn’t? Would anyone be attentive enough? After looking into different options, I found Juan. From the beginning, he was extremely friendly, responsive, and patient with all of my questions. He helped ease my stress and gave me confidence that my puppy, Dragui, would be in good hands. I had to attend a 3-day event in NYC, which often lasted the entire day. Sometimes I was only able to pick up my puppy as late as midnight. Juan was always understanding of my schedule and never made me feel rushed or uncomfortable. While my puppy was with him, Juan sent me frequent updates, including notes about feeding, behavior, and pictures. I also met Juan’s wife, and it was clear that they are both true dog lovers. Their home is very organized and safe for puppies, which immediately gave me peace of mind after the first night. By the second and third time I dropped off my puppy, “Dragoncito” was already excited to see them, which reassured me even more that he was happy and well cared for. If you are considering Juan for your dog’s care, I can wholeheartedly say you won’t regret it. He and his wife are excellent, caring people with real experience with dogs—and at the end of the day, that’s what matters most.”

“Amazing experience - highly recommend! Joel was a great communicator and took such great care of Jaks with last minute service. Would definitely send our pup again!”

About: I have a small bichpoo at home and he loves making new friends! <3 I have taken care of pets of different breeds, temper, and habits. I am currently working from home full time and can walk your furry friends frequently. I usually walk and take them to the dog park every 4-8 hours but can increase the frequency as needed. I live super close to the sven dog park in the neighborhood. I allow pets on sofa and other furniture and always keep an eye out to make sure they are safe and happy.
About: We are lifelong animal lovers. Growing up, I also cared for rescue dogs, so helping pets in need has always been close to my heart. Today, we are proud parents to Dobby, our sweet Pomeranian who we adopted from a local rescue center. Giving Dobby a second chance at a loving home has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. Because of these experiences, we truly understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your furry family member. We work from home in LIC, so your pup will never be left alone for long. Daily walks by the water, cozy playtime in our spacious living room, and plenty of snuggles on our big couch are part of the routine here. Safety and comfort always come first—we’ll follow your pet’s feeding schedule, respect their personality and quirks, and send frequent photo updates so you always know how they’re doing. We also believe in giving back: a portion of what we earn is donated to local animal rescue organizations, because every pet deserves love and safety. As a fellow pet parent, I know how important it is to respect each pet’s own routine, personality, and little quirks. Since my partner and I both work from home, we have the flexibility to adjust our day around your pet’s needs—whether that’s a midday walk, playtime, or quiet companionship. Our regular hours are 10AM to 9:30PM for non- boarding service. Additional rates might be required for time outside of regular hours. In my home (for boarding): We keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards. Doors and windows are secured at all times, and pets are never left unattended outside. Walks are always on-leash with secure harnesses or collars—never off-leash unless specifically approved by the owner. Pets have access to cozy rest areas, toys, and fresh water at all times. If your pet prefers a crate or a separate quiet space, we can easily accommodate that. In a client’s home (drop-ins): I always respect your home and follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and walking routes to medication routines. I make sure your pet stays in their familiar environment and feels comfortable while you’re away. As fellow pet parents, we understand that every dog or cat has their own habits and quirks. We will always follow your directions strictly and do our best to maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe, secure, and loved.
“Tracy took great care of my dog, Melo, and made her feel at home right away. She also was mindful to check about any sensitivities and gave Melo medication on time, and sent so many photos throughout the day! I would highly recommend Tracy!”

“This is our second time working with Alyssa because 1) she is reliable, 2) takes care of Cooper as if he is her own and 3) Cooper enjoys his time with her… that’s all I can ask for when I am unable to be with him. Alyssa, thank you for everything that you do!”

“I couldn't be happier with my experience! Annie took such great care of my pup while I was away. From the updates and adorable photos to the thoughtful attention to my dog’s routine, it was clear that they truly love what they do. My dog came home happy, well-exercised, and even a little spoiled! I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Will definitely book again!”

“Sonia took great care of my sensitive dog. My pup is nervous in new settings, however she quickly warmed up to Sonia and became more comfortable as the day went on. My dog also loved being out in her beautiful yard. Sonia provided frequent updates and answered all my questions, which helped put my mind at ease. I would recommend her and will use her again for my dog!”

“Junru is super nice and she always respond quickly when I message her. I will definitely will ask her to watch my furbaby and recommend to other people!”

Carla was absolutely wonderful. We couldn’t be happier with her care and will definitely book with her again. She put us completely at ease and treated our girl like her own. We so appreciated the frequent updates and photos. She truly made the whole experience stress-free. We’re beyond happy with her!

Walther was an amazing sitter. He made sure that my dog was happy and safe, and went out of his way to take my pup on a couple of long walks by the water. He was very communicative and flexible with timing. I will 100% come back when I need a sitter again. Thanks Walther!

I had the incredible pleasure of booking for the first time on Rover and blessed to find the best pair. I was anxious and needed a last minute sitter/day care for my new beloved pup who is 3 months old. They updated me and provided knowledge as a first time dog owner. They are so well-versed with dogs, that I learned a lot. Not only that, my pup came back so content and he whined after leaving them!! I mentioned Zia’s name, he looked around and cry whined. Jiraiya misses his best bud, Zia! See u guys soon! Jule and Den, you guys are the best!

Heather was amazing as always!! She cared for Axel for two days while I was away on a trip and gave him lots of walks and love. Got updates and pictures basically every few hours which was very comforting. Axel is obsessed with her so I know they always have a blast together.
