Dog Boarding Upper East Side

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and love caring for animals. I’ve fostered 14 cats, including kittens, undersocialized cats, and cats recovering from surgery, as well as fostered two dogs. I’ve also been a neighborhood dog walker and have cared for family pets. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide consistent, reliable care based on what works best for you and your pet. I have my own cat at home, so pets staying in my home must be comfortable and get along well with cats. I always prioritize safety and make sure every pet has a calm, comfortable environment while in my care. For pets who aren’t comfortable around cats, I’m happy to provide care in their home instead.

“Bridget was great! She is very friendly and took great care of our dog. She shared photos and updates, which made us feel better as first time Rover users. Additionally, our dog came home relaxed and at ease, so we know she was well cared for. We would definitely ask her to watch our pup again.”

“John really cares about my dog Barney. When I leave Barney with him, I know he’s in great hands. I have left Barney with John twice now when going out of town for trips and it went great. I highly recommend him.”

“I could not have imagined a better sitter for my puppy, Leo. This was my first trip away from him, so I was a little nervous and didn't know what to expect. Wei was super communicative from the start. We exchanged many messages before my trip, and met in person so my pup could meet her sweet doggo ahead of time. I could tell right away that Leo was in good hands. I so appreciated all the pictures and videos of Leo while I was away. You can 100% trust her with your pet! We will definitely book with her again. Thank you Wei!”

“Will definitely book with Ryan again soon! He proactively sent lots of updates and pictures and was responsive whenever I reached out. He indulged my pup in all the cuddles he demanded, and I trust he was in good care :)”

“David and his partner were amazing with my Tater :) They know so much about rescue dogs and helped with his anxiety while I was away. This is the longest I’ve been away from Tater and they helped me too by sending lots of pictures and updates on him! Highest of recommendations! Thank you again!!! Such a wonderful experience!”

“I highly recommend Steven as a sitter. Steve boarded my two 6 month old kittens for 5 days. I was impressed by his Rover profile that he focused on cat care since most profiles cater to dog sitting. He responded very quickly to my initial inquiry that he would be available. We had a call to make arrangements and Steve talked about his experiences with cat sitting which assured me that he would be a caring sitter. From the moment I dropped off my cats Steve was in regular communication with me, sending videos and pictures of them multiple times a day as they acclimated to him and his apartment. I could tell from the videos that my kittens were comfortable and happy with him. I wouldn't hesitate to contact Steve the next time I need someone to take care of my cats. Thanks again Steve!”

“Adam watched our 10 month old puppy for about a week while we were out of town, and he did an awesome job. I got so many pictures and videos the whole time. His dog Hermes gets on great with my puppy, they were playing together the whole time! We did a meet and greet before booking him to make sure that the dogs got along well together too. We needed our dog to only eat the food we brought due to allergy concerns, and Adam fed them in separate rooms which worked well. We got back a tired, happy puppy.”

Kate B.

“I have a senior dog with some specific needs and Jiaxu took great care of her while I was away! She sent me photos, videos and updates every day and made sure to clarify any questions she had so that she could take the best care of my dog. I would leave my dog in her care again and would definitely recommend her to other pet parents. 😊 Thanks, Jiaxu!”

“Mykala was awesome! She took great care of Saffy and was really flexible when my travel plans changed & I had to book an additional night. I've already booked Mykala again for my next trip and I know Saffy will be excited to see her.”

“Vasiliki is amazing with Kira. My dog is a bit anxious but she loves Vasiliki and looks forward to staying with her all the time! She is super responsive and sends me frequent updates about Kira during her stay. Vasiliki was very accommodating of accepting Kira for a last minute request as well. Kind and responsible, will continue to have Vasiliki take care of Kira moving forward! 🙂”

“I have a sweet but anxious girl and she was very happy staying with Janise- I could tell by the videos she keep me updated with that she was happy and trusted her - I would highly recommend her and would rebook again!”
