“Sabrina took wonderful care of my dog. I had to book the boarding last minite, but Sabrina was very accommodating. She responded to my messages quickly and also kept sending me photos of how my dog was doing which gave me peace of mind. When I was picking him up, Sabrina explained in detail how he ate, slept, walked and behaved during the stay. This proved to me that Sabrina paid a lot of attention to my dog. Most dog sitters in my experience didn't share this much detail. I highly recommend Sabrina!”
“John was great - Extremely responsive and kept me updated while my dog Ollie stayed with him. I gave so many instructions because Ollie has separation anxiety and John took them all very well. When I got Ollie back he was so calm and relaxed because John took such good care of him!”
“Ryan was the best. He was flexible and took care of my girl like his own. He took her out for walks and sent updates and photos. I felt safe leaving her with Ryan. Will definitely book him again!”
“Euitae was great with my puppy! Communicated with me well throughout the time, sent photos and videos. I felt comfortable leaving her with a new boarder and would work with Euitae again!”
“Bridget was great. Took excellent care of Bella. We were very nervous and worried, but things worked out great. Process was smooth and no complaints.”
“Lal, Matt & Hank were great! My doggy boys stayed with them for a week while we were travelling out of state and they looked like they were having a nice little doggy vacation themselves with their new found friends. Lal would keep us updated with how our boys were doing by also posting pictures and videos along with the texts and e-mails. Lal really took the time to get to know the boys well specially during their meet and greet. Plus the fact that their LabraDoodle, Hank got along very well with the boys made me really feel at ease. I would definitely pick them again for our upcoming travels. So happy to know that my doggy boys were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommended.”
“Iliana was a great host for our 11 year old mini schnauzer. He was there 6 days. She was responsive and sent us pictures of him taking walks and chillaxing in her apt. Would highly recommend her and we look forward to dropping Ace off again when we need a dog sitter”
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”
“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.”
“Michael was so communicative and supportive with Luna as my trip got interrupted last minute. I appreciated the photos and constant updates that were shared. Luna was in great hands when I left her and knew when I picked her up! Thanks again for taking such good care of Luna.”
“Farrah had another fantastic stay at Ian and Clementina’s! They shared numerous updates, photos, and videos during her multi day stay at their apartment, and came back super happy!!”
“Eva is such a warm, thoughtful dog sitter. She texts with any questions and my dogs felt right at home with her. She is great about taking them for walks in Central Park and sending great pics. She truly loves dogs and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Angie was an amazing sitter. We recently went on vacation to Mexico and Angie took care of our 16 year old, blind/deaf Chihuahua. We got pictures regularly and constant updates. We will rebook again for sure. 🙂”
“I can’t express how amazing my dog’s stay was with Maisha. I literally won’t book with anyone else! She sent photos and video and was incredibly responsive. My dog had a blast during his stay. I will book again and you should too if you’re reading this!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our puppy than we got with Wei Han. She took care of our pup like it was her own. More than just taking care of her, she gave our puppy new experiences while we were away. She’s incredibly responsive and sent daily updates making the experience totally stress free.”
“Anky came through with a last minute booking for our dog Tina and her flexibility reduced a ton of travel stress when we ran into weather delays. She was great with our nervous girl and sent tons of updates and pictures!”
“Heather was an absolute delight to work with! Quick, clear, and helpful. It was our first time using a sitting service and we were understandably anxious. Heather made us feel so comfortable and from the frequent updates we got on our pup, he was clearly having the time of his life!!! We could not recommend her enough!”
“Nicole took care of our young pup for a week and ensured he had a great time! We were worried how he would be in a new home, but Nicole took such good care of him. She was very communicative, texting and sending us pictures every day. Would definitely recommend Nicole!”

“This is the second time I’ve booked with Maribel, and once again she did an amazing job! She took great care of both my cats and my apartment, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals. She gave me complete peace of mind while I was away with her detailed updates and photos. She is reliable, thoughtful, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“Morgan is the absolute best. First and foremost, she truly loves cats which you can tell in the way she cares and takes care of your own. We only had her over for weekend but our cat was more social and loving with her than anyone else! Morgan provides detailed notes, pictures, and updates. Our trip was so smooth since we knew Mia was in such good hands. Morgan goes above and beyond, she will follow instructions/notes exactly and even put away some food we forgot to do ourselves. Could not recommend Morgan more!”

“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!”

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.

“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!”
About: I’ve taken care of my family dog since I was 10. I’ve also watched family friends and relatives animals for them when they are away on vacation! I’m currently working hybrid so I can be home most days if needed when boarding an animal! I will enjoy being able to get out of my apartment every few hours to take the dog for long walks! I live in an apartment with a roommate and we always keep the door locked when we are in and out of the home. My roommate has a standard poodle who is super mellow and great with other dogs!
“Lee was so amazing with Ozzie! She sent pictures of him relaxing in her house and playing with her daughters. He made himself right at home! We will definitely be back!”
“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!”
“Allison took great care of my high energy pup, he came home happy and tired:) She also was able to accommodate last minute visit and sent pleanty of pictures and videos of him having fun! Would use her services again!”

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.
“All went great! Zuri was happy to meet everyone for the first time and warmed up fast (unique for our nervous doggo!) We got fun pics and Zuri was happy and healthy when we picked her up. We would trust our Zuri with Kuan and Zhixi again!”
“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.”
“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!”

We don’t know what we’d do without Vivian!”

My doggy boys stayed with them for a week while we were travelling out of state and they looked like they were having a nice little doggy vacation themselves with their new found friends.

“Eric was wonderful! He provided boarding services for our dog Benji last minute. We had vacation plans that were made months in advance and could not bring Benji. Given that I was a first time dog parent and had recently adopted Benji, I was nervous about boarding him so early on during Benji’s decompression period. Eric was great with communication - he agreed to meet Benji prior to the boarding date so Benji could be familiar with him. He also provided my husband and I photos/videos of Benji daily. When we got Benji back, we could tell that he had a blast with Eric. Thank you again Eric for helping us out! I would definitely recommend him!”

I left my puppy with them for a day and everything went well :) they were always very responsive and understanding about my dog's needs (which were many given he's a small puppy).
