“She is EXTRAORDINARY! Words can not do her level of professionalism and love of our dog Goose! She treated Goose and us just like family. She was kind and understanding...we tried to not be late for meeting which is hard in NYC with 3 children..She is the best fit for any situation!”

“Couldn't ask for a better sitter! My dog can be nervous in new places and around new people, but Eleanor made him feel right at home and accommodated for his health issues as well. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding when it came to drop off and pick up times. Just a wonderful experience.”

About: Hi! My name is Nana, and I would love the opportunity to care for your dog. I have many years of hands-on experience as a dog owner and have also cared for dogs for friends and family. After spending 15 wonderful years with my beloved dog, I realized how much I enjoy providing loving, attentive care and would love to share that experience with more dogs and their families. I am a Certified Senior Dog Caregiver and a Certified Dog Trainer. I believe every dog deserves individualized care, so I only accept one family’s dog(s) at a time. This allows me to provide your pet with my full attention in a calm, safe, and stress-free environment. For everyone’s safety, I currently accept dogs up to 25 pounds. This allows me to safely lift your dog if needed during an emergency and helps keep them safe from reaching kitchen counters or tables where food or unsafe items may be left. My apartment is small but very dog-friendly, with low furniture and protected non-slip flooring to help prevent slips and injuries. My building also has a private dog run, and we’re just steps from Carl Schurz Park, making it easy to enjoy plenty of walks, fresh air, and exercise. I’ll happily follow your dog’s normal routine, whether that means frequent outdoor walks, setting up wee-wee pads indoors, administering medications (if needed), or simply providing lots of love and companionship. I carefully follow every owner’s instructions so your dog feels comfortable, secure, and at home. I am reliable, organized, tidy, and detail-oriented. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your furry family member is doing. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else because I felt the same way with my own dog. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can spend plenty of quality time with your dog. On Mondays and Thursdays, I am away for approximately 6 hours, but I’m otherwise home and available. If you prefer care in your own home, I’m also happy to provide drop-in visits within the Upper East Side area. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about scheduling or your dog’s specific needs. I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs whenever possible! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I only care for one family’s dog(s) at a time, allowing me to provide personalized attention in a calm, low-stress environment. My home is clean, organized, and dog-friendly, with non-slip flooring and low furniture to help keep pets safe. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, potty routines, exercise, and any special needs. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident knowing how your dog is doing. For drop-in visits in the Upper East Side, I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect as my own while ensuring your dog stays on their familiar routine. My goal is for both you and your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Amber is amazing! She sends tons of adorable updates throughout the day which is awesome. Bennett and her pup Bowden took to each other pretty quickly and they had a day full of nonstop play! I feel very comfortable leaving Bennett in her care and we look forward to seeing her again soon.”

“We were so fortunate to connect with Shaye for a last minute booking. The whole experience was positive through the ease of communications and keeping me updated with pictures.”

About: Whether you require daycare, boarding, house-sitting, or occasional drop-in visits/walks, you can count on me to treat your pet like a precious, irreplaceable gem! I’m the pawrent of a Pekingese dog, two Exotic Shorthair cats, and a Persian cat. I am also a foster meowmie for other kitties. I have experience with senior and special-needs pets, including as a volunteer dog walker for PAWS NY, an organization that helps people in need keep their pets in their lives. I will send you lots of photos and videos so you can be fully informed about the well-being of your pet/s. I am a full-time pet care specialist. In addition to dogs and cats, I’m also happy to care for bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, birds, and other exotic pets. I’ve read some horror stories about overnight sitters, as I’m sure you have. If I am house-sitting for you, I will be staying overnight in your home, so your pet will be in its usual environment. If you choose daycare or boarding with me, I will be staying overnight with your pet in a secure, cozy apartment with a fenced-in backyard (my own dog and cats won’t be present). I don’t walk dogs off leash and I don’t open windows for the safety of small dogs and cats. If your animal has any symptoms of illness, you’ll be advised immediately. If it’s hot out, I will ask that we run the A/C for the health of your pet. The well-being of your pet is as important to me as the well-being of my own pets.
“Wei and Jason have been my go to sitters for Nellie for a couple of years now. Nellie has difficulties staying alone but with Euitae I can go to work calmly knowing Nellie is having a fulfilling day and with pictures to boot, highly recommend!”

“She took amazing care of our dog during doggy day care. She sent lots of pictures and even sent him home with some fancy treats! He was well loved and cared for.”

“Matthew and Katherine were absolutely fantastic!! I was gone for the week of July 4th and they treated Mango to a true summer camp experience. He got to play in a little pool, run around the dog park, and watch the World Cup on their couch. Truly could not have asked for a better couple to have him stay with.”

About: Moving to NYC in September from Minneapolis where I have have been watching dogs for the last year and a half while working remote. I graduated from the University of St. Thomas in May 2020 and have a dog back home in Wisconsin who is 10 years old and a Havanese. I would walk hi daily and care for him when I was back home and would love to hang out and care for dogs while working remote. I also have a few dogs I consistently watch in my apartment building and as well as being a constant go-to when friends need a sitter. I am extremely motivated and passionate. I also have a lot of flexibility with work from home this year which means I have a lot of availability. I have missed hanging and caring for my dog since moving out and I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to make some additional money and also hang out with animals! I work from home full time Monday through Friday so I have lots of flexibility and availability! I also have lots of flexibility with my meeting schedule throughout the day. I live in an extremely safe apartment with an elevator. Lots of other dogs are always there as well! I am extremely organized and clean on top of that.
“Sierra is so amazing with Stout! She is like a second mama to my fur baby and I trust her with him completely! He loves her so much and is always so happy to see her!”

“I had no issues or complaints. All good things for Seoyoung! I appreciated the consistency of pictures sent to me & updates of what my pug was up to. I know my puppy was in good hands because I had a peace of mind after meeting her & seeing my puppy was comfortable with her at the first impression and that she took great care of her like if she was her dog. Thank you!”
“Tingli was great with our very shy Shih Tzu Benji. She picked up his vibe and was so gentle and caring. She took so many pics which was very comforting. It was very obvious she bonded with him and she has such a great approach to her care with dogs. Highly recommended, very good communication/professionalism!”

“Sonia is amazing! Dalbit loved her space - I feel good knowing he has a great outdoor area to play. She sent me tons of videos and photos during the day. Definitely recommend her!”

“Caroline and Gabriel were flexible and worked with my schedule. They communicate well and provided updates throughout the day. I highly recommend them for day care!”


“Angelina and Donald took wonderful care of my two Vizslas. I could not be happier. I was visiting New York for the day and needed someone to look after my two very active dogs for the afternoon. I was a little nervous about leaving them because they can be a lot to handle and are not accustomed to the city, but I had absolutely nothing to worry about. Angelina and Donald took them on a five-hour adventure through Central Park and then east to Andrew Haswell Green Park. Angelina sent photos throughout the walk, so I could see how much fun they were having. She also fed them exactly as requested and had them ready when I arrived for pickup. The dogs were tired, happy, and clearly adored Angelina and Donald. I will definitely book with Angelina again the next time I am in the city.”

“Kuan and Zhixi are the best!! I am so appreciative of them both for taking such great care of my little guy. I know he is in good hands when I leave him with them. 💛”

We left our 5 month old puppy Dill with Abdon, which was the first time we EVER left Dill alone with a stranger. Abdon was the perfect person to watch Dill and Dill can not wait to go back! Abdon was very communicative and sent pics and videos of them playing together. Abdon even was willing to meet Dill and I halfway between our apartments to ease the commute time for me. Truly a great guy, not just a job for him, he truly cares about and loves hanging out with our pup. Will absolutely be a returning client!

5 stars! Jashalund was great with our dog Avicii, who can be a little moody and anxious, but Jashalund is patient, communicative and understanding. She sent wonderful photos and updates which gave us peace of mind. Jashalund’s gentle approach really made a difference for Avicii and for us, we are thankful to have found such a nice person who really loves dogs.

Keysis has been amazing with Estrella! She watched her Monday through Thursday for the past four months, from when she was just 2 months old puppy until now at 6 months. It truly became Estrella's second home. She would get so excited every morning to see Keysis, which says everything about the love and care she received. Keysis is so kind, reliable, and treats every dog like family. I'm so grateful for everything she's done for Estrella! We are going to miss her 💕

Angela did a great job taking care of Bigby for the day! Drop off and pick up was smooth and she followed instructions really well. Would definitely come to Angela to take care of Bigby again soon! She even talked me through how to use the app better, which was very much appreciated.

Sophia took such good care of Udon for the day! She was super attentive, responsive to texts, and sent so many cute photos and updates throughout the day. She was also very flexible with pick up and drop off times as well. Would highly recommend!!! Thanks Sophia

I had a great experience with Antonio. He took excellent care of my two French bulldogs, Leo and Gnocchi. They came back home happy and well care for. Antonio was always very responsive and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day. I’d definitely trust him with my dogs again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and reliable.

Katie was wonderful with my dog. She is a pro. I could tell my Puzzle had a very nice day and was feeling safe and cared for. And they went to Central Park! Katie was also super friendly to interact with and accommodating with me. I definitely will be booking her services again soon. Maybe today even;)

Hannah was absolutely amazing with my dog, Lelu! From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves dogs and made Lelu feel comfortable and cared for. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked Lelu up, he looked happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. It’s obvious that Hannah goes above and beyond to make sure every dog feels safe and loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking with Hannah again. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their dog🥺🐾🐾💕

Anna and Oliver were Wonderful with my senior dog. They were very fast to respond when I txted them which I really appreciate. Lila loved spending the day with them. They kept me updated on how Lila settled in, and they made sure she had lots of cuddle time. I highly recommend Anna and Oliver for taking care of your fur baby. I look forward to booking with them again.

Jisu & her husband are wonderful people. My pups felt safe & warmed up to them quickly. Jisu kept me updated and sent me pictures throughout the day. Never once did I doubt that my pups were in good hands and very well taken care of. I will definitely be requesting Jisu again🐾♥️🐾
