“Denise is amazing & super sweet! she took such good care of our sweet Melo. She sent us pictures often & took him places. We were so happy to see how well he was taken care of after our bad experience with a boarding facility. Melo loves her & we can’t wait to use her in the future!”
“Both Wenxu and her husband were great with my puppy Marvin, they made sure to keep me updated with pictures and videos all day, and was always available to answer any of my questions. Will definitely be using her again to take care of my dog.”
“Delmy and her daughter were great! They sent photos and videos constantly. Her house was clean and she even let me come and meet her before I even booked. It was very comforting knowing she wanted me to feel comfortable leaving my Remi with her. Thank you so much!”
“Michelle was wonderful! Our dog did great with her and her family while we were away. We got lots of photos and updates. Will definitely use again for our next trip away”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Brenda watching Beaux! She was incredibly communicative and sent daily updates and videos/photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell how knowledgeable and experienced she is with dogs, and most importantly, how much genuine love and attention she gives them. Beaux was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She even kindly kept him an additional night for us because our travel plan changed and we appreciated that so much. We would absolutely trust her with Beaux again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and flexible sitter!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept my dog at their home for 2 days, sent updates and pictures, and were kind and attentive. It was clear my dog was happy and well taken care of. I’m very grateful and would absolutely book with them again.”
“Alissa and her fiancé are very sweet & kind. Such a welcoming & safe home. They were very attentive to my dog’s needs and even with other pups that were there, they made sure mine were taken care of properly. She has a great set up to separate any feedings, go out at any time if needed. They were happy overall! I will definitely have them watch them again in the future!”
“Yessenia was absolutely lovely to work with. She answered any questions we had as first time Rover customers in order to put us at ease. We could see from the first interaction that she would be kind to our dog, as she immediately got down and gave her hand to the dog to sniff and then pet her. She has a daughter with a sweet and gentle personality, who kindly shared her own blanket with the dog to make the dog feel more comfortable. Yessenia‘s husband was friendly and pleasant as well. Yessenia sent us multiple pictures and updates over the weekend while she watched the dog. Though we brought some supplies, she was also prepared with her own if necessary. Furthermore, since Yesenia had already experienced life with a senior dog, she offered us some suggestions that might help with our pup. Our Rusty had never been cared for by a stranger up to this point. It was hard for us to leave her. That said, we would not only highly recommend Yessenia and her family to other dog owners, we will definitely reach out to Yessenia again if we need someone to board the dog. She even included a lovely note about the experience. Her thoughts were genuine, and it was nice for us to be reminded about the beauty of our dog whom we see every day.”
“Sarah abs her family were amazing. She kept us up to date with texts, photos and videos every day. She paid special attention to every detail about our pups and gave us some excellent tips on modifying certain behaviors. We would definitely recommend her without hesitation.”
“Nicole was amazing!! She took such amazing care of our Brody. She sent daily updates and followed through with every care request we had, down to brushing him and administering eye ointment. She’s is obviously very experienced as our anxious guy had some diarrhea during his stay and she handled it perfectly. She is warm and loving. We will definitely be asking Nicole to watch him again.”
“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”
“Alba was the best sitter for our dog!! She took such great care of our pup and sent us photos and videos every day. Highly recommend booking her if you need a sitter!”
“Honestly Cindy is the best "dog nanny" we've ever had among many. Our 15 year old toy dog Sam, who can be a handful, was pampered, brushed and catered to by Cindy during his stay with her. Cindy is truly a "dog whisperer" who goes above and beyond to bond with her canine clients. She sent video updates every day too. Only one dog at a time. Simply the best!”
“Michael did an amazing job! He was very responsive, and provided updates throughout our dogs stay with him. He made pickup and drop off smooth and easy, and our dog had a great time with him. This was her first time with a sitter, and she really enjoyed herself. I would recommend Michael to anyone and everyone to use for future pet sitting.”
“Sara and her family are wonderful! Our dog Ember has stayed with her many times over the last few years and always has a great time. Sara sends frequent updates and I always feel comfortable knowing that Ember is getting amazing care. Thank you Sara :)”
“Heeyoung did a great job with Benson and Chloe and took great care of them. We were so grateful to have found her. We highly recommend Heeyoung as she loves dogs and sent photos and videos for the duration of our trip. Thank you Heeyoung!”
About: Hi there! Dogs have been a part of my entire life & I understand that they are so much more than pets - they are our family! What sets me apart is the personal attention I give to each dog in my care. I want them to feel comfortable, secure & genuinely loved while they are away from their family. Throughout my life of having dogs, I've experienced & learned about their many different needs. I've cared for an epileptic dog, administered prescription eye drops & been there for my dogs through illnesses, surgeries, recovery & all the different stages of their lives. These experiences have taught me to be observant, patient & attentive to changes in their behavior & well-being. I do my best to learn & understand what may be happening with them and, as much as possible, what they might be feeling so I can give them the care, comfort & attention they need. My own dogs have taught me how much trust is involved when someone cares for your beloved pet. My late little girl, Faith, holds a HUGE piece of my HEART & her memory is a part of what inspires me to care for & give other people's dogs the same compassion I would want for my girl. My goal is for your dog to feel like they're spending the day in a second home, surrounded by love, attention & care. At this point in my life, I'm fortunate to have the flexibility be home for most of the day, which allows me to dedicate my time & attention to caring for dogs - something I truly love! I'm available for both doggy daycare & overnight boarding throughout the week. I do occasionally step out for errands & such, but your dog will have plenty of attention & care throughout the day. For daycare, I offer convenient morning drop-off & afternoon/evening pick-up times. Boarding drop-offs & pick-ups can be arranged during the day to best accommodate your schedule. I'm happy to discuss specific timing when making a reservation, with times generally arranged between 8 AM & 7 PM. Of course, I offer some flexibility when needed. I also offer a convenient pick-up/drop-off service for an additional fee. If possible, before every first booking, I’d love to schedule a meet-and-greet to make sure I’m the perfect fit for you and your pup. Your pet's overall happiness is my top priority. I take the time to learn each dog's personality, routine, likes & needs so I can make sure their stay is as happy & stress-free as possible! Whether your pet is here for the day or a longer stay, we will fully take advantage of my large, fully fenced-in yard. I have plenty of space for dogs to run, play & enjoy some fresh air safely. I'm happy to step out with them & enjoy some of the same! I have no pets of my own, no more small children & my home is smoke-free, providing a calm & peaceful environment. I'm happy to follow your pet's normal routine & can crate them if that's what they are comfortable with or whatever it is you prefer. I will provide you with updated photos and messages throughout their day(s) - I remember how excited I was to receive mine! I offer a safe, loving, comfortable home where your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, companionship and care throughout their stay.
“Yaina is absolutely wonderful. She cared for Oscar like he was her own, going above and beyond to make sure he was safe, happy, and comfortable. I can't begin to describe how lucky I was to find her, and how responsible, caring, and genuine she is. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”
“Pamela was an exceptional dog sitter for my dog. Her care is beyond explanation! I think my dog is gonna miss her more than he missed me 😄 While I was on vacation she sent me a lot of photos and videos about my dog that made me feel he’s with me. I absolutely recommend her and her care to anyone who loves to leave their dog in good hands!”

“Lindsay did a great job caring for our 3 cats. She contacted us every day and sent us pictures. Even in the heavy rain she made it to our home. She also cleaned up when one of our cats got sick and she also cleaned up dry food that the cats knocked over. We highly recommend Lindsay for your cat sitting needs.”
“We’ve used Siobhan a few times now to watch our cat. She is always helpful with the house as well as the cat’s direct care. She is very easy to communicate with. We appreciate that she always goes above and beyond.”
“Amy is the best! She let the cats be themselves and it all worked out perfectly. She sent daily updates with pictures of both Spooky and Cleo, which added to the sense of security we needed. She did a wonderful job and we are so grateful!”
“Janhvi was excellent. The experience felt luxurious with the way she operated. Never missed a visit, pics, vids and full report every time. Would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“I am a senior living with my 5 senior cats. They are my family and their happiness is my happiness. Although I like to travel, I hesitate to ask my son and daughter-in-law to take care of them over and over again while I am out of town. I was planning to visit my other son and his family to see my grandkids in NC. I decided to give a try to drop-in care. After checking all the options, I decided on SARAH based on her background and reviews. What a choice I made; she was excellent, deserving more than 5 stars. First of all, she is an animal lover. My cats have a strong sense if a person likes them or not. They will either come to great that person or totally disappear. Looking at the pictures Sarah provided, they are all around her. Even on her shoulder, hugging. Yes, she sent me plenty of pictures every day, including before and after pictures of their plates, litter boxes, She let me know every detail about their wellbeing even sent me the pictures of throw ups, if she found one. When I was back, I found the house clean and in order. She even took all the garbage out with her. Well, I couldn’t ask anything more from her. I feel very comfortable leaving my cats with her again.”
“Jessica did a great job watching our 2 cats for a couple of days. She kept us updated with how they were doing and sent us daily pictures. We came home to 2 very happy cats.”
“Samantha was great! She took the time to meet with us before her visits to make sure everything was in order and sent great updates and pictures each day. She was flexible and even able to add on an extra day when our plans changed. Would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Our cats are our kids and we hate them being lonely and uncomfortable when we are away. Our newest rescue also seems to not like men so much, so this time when we needed a sitter last minute we reached out to Ella and hit the jackpot!! Ella followed all our directions for feeding etc and kept our house clean while we were away...which isn't easy with 2 cats. Our cats, which can be very shy initially, fell in love with Ella and it put us at ease knowing how happy they were with her and how much they looked forward to seeing her. Highly recommend Ella to take care of your pets. She is very responsible, corresponds with you very well, and loves your pets like her own.”
“Madison was wonderful. We had a meet and greet. After meeting her, I knew she was the one for us. She stayed at our house overnight and I received pictures of my cats along with my feral cat that lives here. I had no worries leaving her at our home. Came home and she left it exactly the way it was when we left. She listened to direction for feeding and not only were we happy, our cats were happy. Cannot wait to use Madison again. Thank you for making us feel comfortable with our fur babies. Michele”

“Sarah is an exceptional caregiver for our pup Leela! She was so thorough when we dropped Leela off and made sure every single area that Leela would be in was shown to us. There is tremendous care and intention that Sarah puts into her services and it shows. Leela was at ease being with her, and we will be dropping Leela off to hang out with Sarah, her children, and her pup every time we are in Long Island. Her daughter also drew leela two beautiful drawings and one can tell your pup will be treated like family. She is also very attentive and well versed in caring for a puppy’s needs.”

I’m really appreciate of her for giving uno such a good care.”

Our house is spacious and we have people home around most of the day. We would love to host other dogs for companionship.

“Amrit was so great taking care of my two yorkies, Emma and Charlotte this past weekend. As rescues, my dogs tend to be very scared of meeting new people; but both days when I dropped them off and picked them up from Amrit they were very happy and calm. Amrit was very understanding of my pups’ needs. I will definitely use Amrit’s services again! Highly recommend!”
“I will start off by stating Pamela truly a magnetic bubbly human being, her energy alone made me feel safe leaving Keanu in her care. Keanu he felt right at home immediately, and there was an instantaneous connection. Her home is immaculate, a great dog setting which in turn is 100% inviting for all pups. She is a gem and so is her animal loving hubby Jose. The countless videos, pictures are perfect and just makes me feel comfortable throughout his stay with Pamela. She shares her nutritious food and treats and he actually ate well (mini poodle picky eater). You will not be disappointed she is a true animal lover....her vibrant energy begins at her door and just elevates the owner and doggie like magic. Keanu is now a repeat daycare client and would have zero concerns when I need boarding. Thank you PAMELA”

About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Ella is such an amazing caregiver! She was so unbelievably responsible and thoughtful. She took notes on our pitbul and asked what his likes and dislikes were. She would leave us little check-in notes when she would visit and walk our pup. She will be my go to pup sitter forever! We felt so comfortable and most importantly our pup felt safe and happy with her.”
“Diana is personable, kind, and very patient with our 5 month old French bulldog! We are so grateful and happy to have found a trustworthy friend for him who understands his needs intuitively :) he waits patiently for her to walk and play!”
About: I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and more, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m especially attentive to small details — like changes in behavior, appetite, or mood — so I can make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you’re away. I have experience with energetic dogs who need structured walks and patience, as well as more sensitive or anxious pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets at once and maintaining clean, safe environments (including litter boxes, cages, and feeding areas). What really sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give — I don’t just “watch” pets, I bond with them. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, reliable hands. Pet care is a big part of my everyday routine. I care for multiple animals at home, including dogs and cats, so I’m used to staying on a consistent schedule for feeding, cleaning, and giving each pet attention. I make time daily for walks, playtime, and bonding, and I’m very attentive to their behavior and needs. Caring for animals isn’t something I do occasionally—it’s part of my lifestyle, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences.

I’m very attentive to behavior and will quickly notice if something seems off. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel reassured while they’re away. Whether I’m in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

I value this opportunity to extend my passion for nurturing and teaching to the well-being of beloved pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away.

I am flexible with my schedule and only work 3 days a week. I would follow all of the instructions the owner has left. Provide your dog with enrichment, treats and walks. If your puppy is scared or anxious I will sit with them, spending the time trying to gain their trust so it’s a positive experience for both parties involved!
About: I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages, but I have the most experience with caring for adolescent to senior dogs. I have experience administering medication if necessary, and adhering to special diets per veterinary instruction. Pet care is my main job! I am fully dedicated to taking care your furry friend(s) and I'm fully available to meet you beforehand to ensure we're a good team! I am more than happy to spend time with your pet, whether that means playing, feeding, or just hanging out. Your fur baby will be safe and in great hands!
“Madison came to walk my dogs for the first time today. She is a professional dog walker and very confident in her work. I was greatly impressed how the dogs took to her and happily all went for a long walk. I am so happy to have found her and can rest easy knowing they are in capable hands, when needed.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have been caring for them most of my life, so being attentive to their needs comes naturally to me. I treat every pet like they’re my own; making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just giving them the extra affection they’re used to. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins for peace of mind. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious dogs and take the time to help them feel at ease. My fiancé, Eric has also always grown up with dogs and was responsible for taking care of dogs and his cat while growing up and they all lived will into their senior years. He is great with more high energy and active dogs, going on long walks, or runs and hikes with them. I work full time where I commute Monday-Friday. Weekends I’m home. My Fiancé also works full time but he gets out a little earlier than I do. For weekend stays we are available to give your furry family the most attention and care. If there is need during the week I’m usually away from home for 10 hours during the day including my commute time to and from work. We will walk and feed them before we leave in the morning and as soon as either of us gets home will do the same and then again before bedtime. In our home, pets are cared for in a calm, safe environment. We live on the second floor of a house in a suburban neighborhood with sidewalks, which allows for safe, structured walks. While we don’t have direct yard access, we make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and attention. I also have a senior cat who is naturally shy and takes time to warm up, so I’m very understanding of pets who may be anxious or need a slower, more gentle approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet time. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I always aim to make them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.

“Michelle was wonderful! Our dog did great with her and her family while we were away. We got lots of photos and updates. Will definitely use again for our next trip away”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept my dog at their home for 2 days, sent updates and pictures, and were kind and attentive. It was clear my dog was happy and well taken care of. I’m very grateful and would absolutely book with them again.”
“Nicole was amazing!! She took such amazing care of our Brody. She sent daily updates and followed through with every care request we had, down to brushing him and administering eye ointment. She’s is obviously very experienced as our anxious guy had some diarrhea during his stay and she handled it perfectly. She is warm and loving. We will definitely be asking Nicole to watch him again.”
“Michael did an amazing job! He was very responsive, and provided updates throughout our dogs stay with him. He made pickup and drop off smooth and easy, and our dog had a great time with him. This was her first time with a sitter, and she really enjoyed herself. I would recommend Michael to anyone and everyone to use for future pet sitting.”

“Vanessa was absolutely AMAZING! She provided daily updates, photos and bonus videos! Lola was taken care of and loved just as much as she is at home. We are using Vanessa for our other family trip at the end of this month and I can feel at ease knowing that she will be a responsive and reliable sitter!”
“Sharon is a great dog sitter. Fortunately, her son was home for the holiday this week and he paid a lot of attention to Snowy. I received picture updates the entire time I was away and Sharon was very, very responsive to my queries. Will definitely use her services again!”
About: I’ve been a dog mom to a puggle and beagle for over 20 years. With that, I have experience with high energy and sneaky personalities! As both babies entered their senior years, I was responsible in caring for their medical needs. My sweet daughter, Ruby (the beagle in picture), recently crossed over the rainbow bridge and my home and soul has not been the same. I am not ready to fill the void with my own fur baby as of yet, but ready to share my love to others. I work remotely as a social worker 5 days a week, so your baby would have plenty of attention. I have my own car and can drive for any emergencies that may arise. Please note that I will respond to messages that are received between 9AM-10PM. I make every effort to respond within 30 minutes. However, if you do not hear from me immediately, please allow me the time to reply as I will never ignore a message. I work remotely from home, so I am flexible with caring for your fur baby in my home. With walks, I am available in the afternoon and evenings with advance notice. Important 📝: Upon booking, I will ask for a meet and greet at a neutral spot. This can be at a dog friendly cafe, a park, and/or the front and then backyard at my home to reduce any stress. For privacy and safety reasons, there will be a limited (only view certain areas) in-home tour until the booking has been finalized. I have a fenced yard if your fur baby likes to run around off leash. I would also take them on walks and/or play with them according to preferences. I have no children or other fur babies in the home but if your baby is open to children, I have two nieces and a nephew who loves dogs that are willing to share their affection! Larger Dogs: I am open and available for daycare and boarding if they are leash and recall trained. Please message me and we can further discuss if we would be a good fit!
“Chris was great! Easy to book, communication was clear and he sent me plenty of pics during our pup’s weekend stay with him. Their dog Luna is a sweetheart. Our dog got plenty of walks and attention while she was there. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks!”
“Thu took excellent care for Remy for the weekend while we were out of town. She sent me pictures of her lounging around and looking very happy. Drop off and pickup were also a breeze as Thu is very accommodating. Thu's dog Pi is also very playful and was great with Remy. I will use Thu again when the need arises.”
“Judy was wonderful! Our plans for our dog fell through the week of our vacation and she accommodated a last minute meet and greet as well as our complicated travel plans. She sent us "pup-dates" and took amazing care of our fur baby. We absolutely recommend using her services and will hopefully be booking with her again in the near future!”
“Our 5 month old puppy was in great hands with Vanessa and her family. They were reliable, trustworthy, sent us lots of updates including pics and videos. Most importantly he had a great time. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Troy was an absolute godsend. We had a last minute 5 day trip come up and I was nervous handing off our Newfoundland to someone new, especially on short notice, but Troy put me at ease from the first message. He asked all the right questions upfront, was flexible with our chaotic schedule, and clearly knows how to handle a big, gentle giant breed. He sent photos and updates without me even having to ask, and I could tell our dog was genuinely comfortable and happy with him the whole time. We came home to a relaxed, well loved pup and zero stress on our end. Troy is reliable, communicative, and just a genuinely good person to trust with your dog. Can’t recommend him enough, we’ll absolutely be booking him again.”
“Jennifer was a phenomenal pet sitter! My dog, Kona, didn’t even want to leave and was very excited the next time we returned. It’s difficult to find people you trust with your pets, but Jennifer is that person!”
“Diego was a fantastic sitter for our dog, he sent photos, videos, and updates on how he was doing during the day and was super flexible with booking. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
