“AMAZING! Took care of my wonderful puppy, even taught him how to stop scratching people for food. Consistently sent photos and if I ever have to board again I know who's my number 1 pick!”
“Nilka is a treasure. She is extremely loving to animals, showers them with attention and walks and very communicative, sending photos and updates. Boarding with Nilka is a vacation for your pooch. Highly recommended! I will use her every time she's available.”
“Vanessa was very flexible with pick up and drop off time and is extremely friendly. She sent a lot of updates throughout my pup's stay with her, so I was never worried or wondering what and/or how he was doing. He was super happy when I left him and was happy at pick up as well. Overall, he looked like he had a ton of fun with the other dogs & with Vanessa. 10/10 experience!”
“Narly was great from start to end. Communication was excellent and the detailed updates (including pics) were frequent. I strongly recommend her for any boarding needs and will definitely use her in the future. Thanks again Narly.”
“I used Janine for the first time, and she exceeded every expectation. She was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring, providing regular updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.”
“Joanna is amazing! Her love for your furry friend shows from the moment you meet her. She took care of Persia as if she were her own pup. Very communicative and sent pictures every day so we were never worried. Thank you again Joanna!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”
“My dog literally came back home so tired from having fun. He received excellent treatment he had another dog to play with (which was great to wear him out) I was sent multiple pics throughout the day letting me know that Ac was in excellent care. I will use them again and again 🙏🏽”
“Ruth-Ann was exceptional! Thank you so much for taking great care of Cookie. We appreciate the videos and pics that you sent during her stay. We didn't worry because we were confident that she was in good hands. We'll definitely book you again!”
“If I could give Kristen ten million stars, I would. She helped with an international pet rescue, picked up a cat I had never met at JFK and cared for him for 4 days before I could make it across the state to pick him up. She is literally a life saver. We could not have followed through with the rescue without her help! She was so attentive to his needs and sent pictures every day. I would recommend her to everybody.”
“I was really anxious about boarding my fur baby, especially since we had just recently rehomed him and were putting so much effort into his training. I came across a few profiles, but Alex stood out right away. He responded quickly, came to meet Leo on his own time, and from the moment we met him, we just knew he was the right fit for our boy. It’s not easy to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, but Alex made it easy. He was so communicative, kind, and accommodating. He even kept up with the commands we were practicing with Leo, which meant so much to us. While we were away, Alex kept us updated with photos and stories, and he gave Leo such wonderful new experiences — from trips to the beach to sitting at an outdoor restaurant. Alex didn’t just take care of Leo, he went above and beyond. He gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation and showed genuine love and care for our pup. I feel so relieved and grateful knowing we’ve found not only a safe and reliable sitter, but a friend and someone Leo is truly happy with. Don’t hesitate to book Alex. He is amazing !”
“Shushma was the perfect care taker for our girl Lola. She was so quick to respond to all our messages and was so easy and friendly to work with. I felt so comfortable with leaving Lola at her house and will be happy to return.”
“I can’t recommend Samantha enough! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in amazing hands. She treated my pup like family — giving them tons of love, attention, and care. While I was away, she kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone I can fully trust with my fur baby. I’ll absolutely be booking with Samantha again. Thank you for everything!”
“Ingrid took such wonderful care of our dog, Dexter! As soon as we dropped him off, he immediately went to her to greet her, which he does not do for everyone. We were at ease and knew Dexter would be happy while he was away from us. Ingrid sent plenty of photos and updates as well. We will definitely book Ingrid again when we are visiting NY!”
“Stephanie is amazing! She took exceptional care of our Hana. She sent us updates and pictures regularly and I could definitely see that Hana was happy and comfortable with her. I will be contacting Steph again in the future! I 100% recommend her!”
“Thank you for such good care of happy, thank you so much for all the pictures and for cooking for him. I know he had a wonderful time with your two other doggies. I will definitely call you anytime I come to town. Stay blessed. Guys, she’s the best.”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“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!”

“Casey was amazing and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our cats in her care, she checked in daily, sent plenty of photos, spent time with them as well as taking the extra time to play with them. One of our cats is a little more skittish than the other and she put in the effort to make sure she was relaxed and comfortable. She’s very reliable and sweet would absolutely use her again in the future”

She helped with an international pet rescue, picked up a cat I had never met at JFK and cared for him for 4 days before I could make it across the state to pick him up. She is literally a life saver.

“We can't say enough great things about Lisa! She jumped in last minute when we had a scheduling conflict, and she handled it without missing a beat. Our cats were in wonderful hands. Lisa is reliable, kind, and so communicative throughout the whole visit. We always knew exactly how our cats were doing. She truly is the best, and we're so grateful to have her. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter!”

“Michelle was amazing with Milo! This was our first time leaving him with someone else, so I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier and more comfortable. She was very attentive, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave me a lot of reassurance. I really appreciated the updates and how she made sure Milo felt safe and cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed, which means everything to me as a dog mom. It was clear he was in good hands the entire time. The pickup and drop-off process was also smooth and convenient, which I loved. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely trust Michelle with Milo again!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who enjoys spending quality time with pups of all sizes—though I do have a soft spot for the little ones! Long walks while listening to music and bonding with dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, which is why I take a gentle, kind-hearted approach—using soft touches, a calm voice, and plenty of patience to build trust and connection. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or a peaceful stroll, I'm here to make your pup feel right at home. I am currently working full-time, so I can only provide care on weekends. I am a teacher, so once the summer hits on June 28th I can care for pets all hours of the day! Safety and trust are always my top priorities—whether your dog is staying with me or I’m visiting them in their own home. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs so they feel at ease from the start. I create a calm, cozy environment by using soft tones, gentle touches, and lots of positive reinforcement. In my home, I make sure the space is safe, clean, and dog-friendly, with plenty of room to relax, play, or nap. I follow any feeding, medication, or exercise routines you provide to keep things consistent and comfortable. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I give my own—keeping things tidy, sticking to your pup’s routine, and making sure they feel safe in their familiar surroundings.

About: I have been around and caring for dogs of all kinds since I was 8 years old, and animals have always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had experience with different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and ages, which has helped me become comfortable and confident in providing loving care tailored to each dog’s needs. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have also watched dogs for family and friends, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I genuinely love animals and truly enjoy spending time with them. I also go on several long walks each day, so providing dogs with plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention is something that comes naturally to me. Whether it’s a fun walk, a drop-in visit, or extra companionship, I will treat your dog with the same love and care I would give my own. As a remote professional with a flexible schedule, I’m available for reliable weekday and midday dog walks to help keep your pup happy, active, and on their routine. This allows me to easily make time for walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Since I already take several long walks daily, incorporating dog walks into my routine is something I truly enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make it my priority to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate or sleep routines, and any special preferences the pet may have. I make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship during each visit.

“Vanessa was very flexible with pick up and drop off time and is extremely friendly. She sent a lot of updates throughout my pup's stay with her, so I was never worried or wondering what and/or how he was doing. He was super happy when I left him and was happy at pick up as well. Overall, he looked like he had a ton of fun with the other dogs & with Vanessa. 10/10 experience!”
“I used Janine for the first time, and she exceeded every expectation. She was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring, providing regular updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.”
“My dog literally came back home so tired from having fun. He received excellent treatment he had another dog to play with (which was great to wear him out) I was sent multiple pics throughout the day letting me know that Ac was in excellent care. I will use them again and again 🙏🏽”
“Ruth-Ann was exceptional! Thank you so much for taking great care of Cookie. We appreciate the videos and pics that you sent during her stay. We didn't worry because we were confident that she was in good hands. We'll definitely book you again!”
“If I could give Kristen ten million stars, I would. She helped with an international pet rescue, picked up a cat I had never met at JFK and cared for him for 4 days before I could make it across the state to pick him up. She is literally a life saver. We could not have followed through with the rescue without her help! She was so attentive to his needs and sent pictures every day. I would recommend her to everybody.”
“I was really anxious about boarding my fur baby, especially since we had just recently rehomed him and were putting so much effort into his training. I came across a few profiles, but Alex stood out right away. He responded quickly, came to meet Leo on his own time, and from the moment we met him, we just knew he was the right fit for our boy. It’s not easy to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, but Alex made it easy. He was so communicative, kind, and accommodating. He even kept up with the commands we were practicing with Leo, which meant so much to us. While we were away, Alex kept us updated with photos and stories, and he gave Leo such wonderful new experiences — from trips to the beach to sitting at an outdoor restaurant. Alex didn’t just take care of Leo, he went above and beyond. He gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation and showed genuine love and care for our pup. I feel so relieved and grateful knowing we’ve found not only a safe and reliable sitter, but a friend and someone Leo is truly happy with. Don’t hesitate to book Alex. He is amazing !”
“Ingrid took such wonderful care of our dog, Dexter! As soon as we dropped him off, he immediately went to her to greet her, which he does not do for everyone. We were at ease and knew Dexter would be happy while he was away from us. Ingrid sent plenty of photos and updates as well. We will definitely book Ingrid again when we are visiting NY!”
“Stephanie is amazing! She took exceptional care of our Hana. She sent us updates and pictures regularly and I could definitely see that Hana was happy and comfortable with her. I will be contacting Steph again in the future! I 100% recommend her!”
“Kierra went above and beyond to make us feel safe leaving a hope alone with a Rover for the first time. She communicated effectively during every visit, took excellent photos, and took time to really provide Hope with the care and love we wanted. She played and sang to Hope, as well as kept her food and water clean and full. We told her she didn’t need to do the litter every day, but she did anyway. Kierra was respectful of the apartment complex and timely with returning our key. Heart of gold and a friend of animals indeed. She even helped us with extending booking (when we messed up 5 times), We couldn’t have had a better experience or human to take care of Hope (who is a rescue cat but had no issues warming up to kierra)”
“I love having Churchie stay with Mingyon and her family. They are always so nice and church Always has such a great time. Thank you so much.”
“Tanu is great! She took good care of our 6 year old Ace for a day. She loves your pet like it’s her own. Ace is picky with his eating habits and spoiled I should say, but she was very concerned when he skipped his meal. She followed all our instructions and sent us pictures of Ace more often than we expected. He was very happy at her place. I would use her services again without any hesitation and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an excellent sitter for their furry. Thank you so much Tanu for taking care of Ace!”
“Cannot say enough great things about Sam and her family. You can truly tell they love animals and took care of my dog like he was their own. She kept me updated and send me pictures for the week I was away. My dog truly did not want to leave when I went to pick him up. I know he cannot wait to go back!”
“Melissa and family were great with Max. Melissa sent us daily photos and updates about Max. Max spent a total of 6 days and he seemed to do great with them. I felt comfortable leaving Max there and would not hesitate to have Max stay with Melissa again.”
“Brigette was fantastic. She’s super responsive, even for a last minute request, and was an absolute lifesaver for us. She was great with our dog and we’re looking forward to working with her in the future!!”
“Vanessa and D were fantastic hosts and made Cedar feel right at home. They took amazing care of our energetic pup and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our dog was happy, active, and in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely love what they do. We would absolutely book with them again—highly recommend!”
“We had a unique situation that lead us to Eric and he was incredibly accommodating. I forgot my dog's bed and he was able to provide one. He took great care of our shepherd and sent us several photos to show us our dog was doing just fine. Eric is a super nice guy to boot! Would highly recommend!”
“Karina took great care of my Archie while we were on vacation for 10 days. She kept in touch and sent pictures/videos frequently. Archie came back acting totally normal like we never left. Highly recommend Karina for your fur babies!”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“Peggy is wonderful! She’s definitely someone who has passion of what she does and she’s good at it. She updates you and sends videos of their activities. She even took an extra mile to correct our dog’s “pulling” issue without even asking. She truly cares and our Flynn behaved as if he’s with the family because he felt the love and car”
