An amazing couple to take care of your pet! Hsin and Phil were very accommodating since I messed up and chose daycare instead of boarding. They still took care of my pup without any issues! I received daily updates and fun photos to keep me updated during my trip. I will absolutely book with them again and recommend them to any pet owner 😁😁

About: I am a semi-retired mom who has raised puppies from birth up until their senior years. I have taken puppy obedience classes while volunteering at animal shelters and have learned to adapt to different personalities of animals especially in different and new environments, which we all know can be stressful for some of our pets! I only work one day a week so I have tons of time to look after and take care of your pets! I can walk them during the day and board them any day of the week as long as you need. I have a fenced in yard, 3 dog parks within 5 minutes of our home and tons of fresh tennis balls and chew toys. I have a variety of treats ranging from dental chews to promote good dental health and organic treats with vitamins to help with their joints/make their coats nice and is easy on the stomach. We have tons of extra clean and cozy pet beds, pillows, and stuffed animals. I live in a clean and smoke free environment for your pet during their stay!

Jeanette was a great sitter for Mr Pickles! Great communication throughout while she cared for our pet, and very friendly and easy going. Her golden doodle was also great with our furry baby, she kept us up to date throughout the day with pictures and video, totally recommended :)

I’m really glad I chose Yutong for daycare with my energetic little poodle. He was very attentive and reliable, asking all the right questions about my dog’s character, sharing photos throughout the day, and keeping me updated on how things were going. My dog came home happy after spending the day with him, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

About: ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My first dog — Lucy, a Border Collie I had when I was 11 back in Shanghai, China — was my best friend for 16 years. Alongside her, I cared for a rescued stray cat "Noji" and an adopted poodle "Bebe" when I was 13, which taught me patience, responsibility, policing different pets, and how to understand different pet personalities. After moving to the U.S. for school, I brought home my baby Corgi "Brioche" in 2020. She’s now a 5-year-old certified service dog who’s friendly, well-trained, and walked three times a day for at least 30 minutes each time. I also helped train and kept a baby Devon Rex cat for my family in 2025. What sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience with pets of different breeds, ages, and temperaments — from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I love fur babies more than anything and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I will be working part time starting summer 2026 in NYC, so my schedule is flexible, I'm available for daily walks, boarding both weekdays and weekends. I live in a 2 bedroom in FiDi close to battery park city. There are no crates and my corgi was never crate-trained. I don't have indoor pet potty so I almost only take my dog out for potty unless the weather is crazy. I have plenty of dog beds and toys.

About: With 15 years of tail-wagging expertise under my collar, I bring a blend of professionalism and paw-some fun to every furry friend I meet 🐾 From playful puppies to wise seniors, injured pups to special needs like blindness. No challenge is too big or too small! And let's be real, while cleaning up accidents might not be glamorous, I've mastered the art of handling unexpected moments like diarrhea with my own emergency diaper method. I've seen it all. When it comes to dietary needs, I'm as strict as they come. I stick to instructions, ensuring your pup's health and happiness with every meal avoiding allergies and unexpected situations. On the other hand, I offer flexibility with walks and the fun stuff. But beyond logistics, it's the love for dogs that truly drives me. They're smart, loving, and endlessly loyal companions who keep me on my toes. I've cared for up to 4 dogs at a time and every time it confirms that pup's love is pure. They're the first to greet you and stand guard against every strange noise. When you can't be there, I step in to return that affection and care. My mission? To provide a safe, happy dogcation haven where your furry friends can relax without worry. I am all about giving them the attention, play, and social time they crave, along with those essential cuddles and scratches. With updates via text, photo, and video, you'll always feel close to your fur babies. Because let's face it, as ex dog parent myself, I know how comforting it is to feel close to your fur babies, even when you're apart. So, how does it work? Simple! Just let me know about your dog's needs and schedule. I'll tailor my care to fit seamlessly into your routine, ensuring a stress-free experience for both you and your beloved pup. 🐶 I'd love to spend 24/7 with your pet, though I also have some work commitment on sites on NYC apart of remote portion. But don't worry, this allows me some flexibility. If your furry friend needs round-the-clock company, just give me a heads-up, in advance so I can try to work something out. Let me know your preferences and I will do my best to tailor my schedule to yours! I like to care for them as the owner would. Any specific training or special need for a pet, I'm flexible and happy to do

Just lost our dog a couple weeks ago, so it's my first time to look for daycare for Milan. I contacted Jessica and was able to schedule a meet and greet that same day. Milan stayed with them today for the first time, and she seems to have enjoyed herself. She was very quiet in the car and asleep now. Those, to me, are signs of a tired dog! Jessica has been very responsive, accommodating, and flexible. Milan is booked again for next week. Looking forward to it!

Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!

This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.

Selim took excellent care of our puppy, Coco. From the start, it was clear he’s attentive and responsible. He made sure Coco got regular potty and pee breaks, followed his meal schedule properly, and kept a close eye on him throughout the day. What stood out the most was the consistent communication. Selim provided regular updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing Coco was doing well and comfortable. Caring for a young puppy isn’t easy, but he handled it with patience and care. Coco came back happy and well taken care of. We’d definitely trust Selim again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable daycare.
