“David and his wife were FANTASTIC! They treated my dog Tati with love and care. She has horrible separation anxiety so we are selective with who we trust but we would definitely hire them again. They sent regular updates and were really responsive. I’m happy to have found a reliable sitter in Bushwick and would highly recommend!”
“Amazing sitter! Gina is so kind and caring. She took good care of our dog and provided lots of love. She is communicative and responsive. Excellent service.”

“Michael is great! He’s very responsive, flexible, and kind. Our dog absolutely loves him and his wife. He ran into their apartment building after we dropped him off, without even looking back!”
“Took great care of StarFox! I know my dog enjoyed his stay and I appreciate all the time spent with him playing and walking. My dog had a prior injury and he got the best care and attention possible, even a visit to the vet, medical instructions, everything was taken care of. My dog was taken care of like he was family! My dog is a clever fox, so he can be a handful sometimes. Fantastic job and would definitely book again when I’m out of town. Great photos too and updates!”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful watching my dog; very friendly and kind, responsive, flexible with timing, sent lots of photos, and my dog seemed to absolutely love her. She kept him active and also gave him lots of cuddle time. She was a great sitter; I will definitely plan to use her again and highly recommend her.”
“Sanaz was so great for agreeing to watch Roscoe last minute. She sent update photos and messages every day. He also was in such a happy mood when I went to pick him up. Will definitely be requesting her again in the near future.”

“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.”
“John is great with my tiny poodle! My girl Eva has anxiety and I know she must be crying for me pretty badly at first.. since she annoys my own family when I leave. When she comes back home after a stay at John’s she is literally so much more relaxed 😌 He communicates with a daily update that brightens our day. Thank you John for the care!”
“Caterina was terrific with Fala! She sent updates and photos + videos throughout Fala's two night stay and despite generally stormy weather, got Fala out as much as possible. I look forward to booking with Caterina again!”
“I am one satisfied customer. Ryan took excellent care of my dog for one week. He stayed in contact with me for the duration of the week via text and emails. Ryan sent several pictures not to mention asking questions pertaining to my dogs needs. He is an excellent dog sitter. Trust me when I tell you booking him is a fantastic choice!!!”
“Kris and Kylie were absolutely incredible with Rue! During her 9 days with them, they made sure she got plenty of exercise with long daily walks and playtime at the park, and even a fun adventure upstate. They treated her to a spa day at the end of her stay, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was obvious how much care, attention, and love they gave her. We can’t recommend them enough and would trust them with Rue again in a heartbeat!”
“Meiqi is great! Very communicative and shares updates throughout the day. It gives me a peace of mind knowing that my pup is safe and having fun every time she’s there.”
“Ashley was so amazing - she went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were cared for (especially when my little pup was having stomach issues unexpectedly). Nothing phased her and she was super communicative along the way. Can’t recommend her enough. Trust her 100%!”
“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.”

“Abdelkader was great with Skittles while I was away. When I came home, Skittles was very happy and I could tell she was well taken care of. I will definitely use Abdelkader again!”
“Booked Andrea for my first time using Rover, and she was great! She was very responsive and took great care of my cat over the holidays. Highly recommend”

“Can definitely tell Megan has great love for animals! Was very good with our cats and I was happy to know they were getting the attention they deserved while we were away.”
“Natalia was amazing with taking care of my cat while I was gone for the holidays. She is very responsive and took a lot of photos. I’ve already re-booked her for an upcoming work trip and feel so at peace knowing my cats in good hands!”
“Paige was such an amazing cat sitter!!!! She was so attentive and communicate and went above and beyond in making my cat feel well looked after - played with her, kept her well feed and sent adorable pics the entire time! She was accommodating to my schedule and I’ll definitely book her again!”
“Renata took great care of my cat! She was super communicative and sent detailed updates, which I really appreciated. She was so patient with my shy cat, and he ended up warming up to her by the end of their time together. Will definitely be rehiring! ?”
“Mary is amazing! She took such great care of my kitty, Zoubi, and would always send lovely updates and photos after each of her visits. She’s super responsible and reliable. One time she fell off her bike and couldn’t make it so she sent her husband (and fellow Rover) instead. She goes above and beyond. Would highly recommend and have already rebooked her!”
“Tenzin was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She helped water the plants too! Our cat seemed well taken care of and all directions were followed. Smooth sailing and will definitely book Tenzin again!”
“Amanda was such a great cat sitter! She was so kind and patient with my very shy cat and sent great updates every day. Normally my cat won't come out for anyone, but Amanda and her became friends immediately. Can't recommend highly enough!”
“Back to say it again: Stephanie is, quite simply, the best cat sitter in Manhattan and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s been caring for my kitty, Cy, since he was a kitten – across 5 years, 3 apartments, and 20+ trips – and from day one she won both of us over. Stephanie is not only incredibly reliable, communicative, and trustworthy, but so genuinely caring and attentive that I feel like I’m leaving my kitty with friends or family. Cy is a very shy cat and slow to warm up, but he trusts Stephanie completely – which honestly says everything. Whenever we travel, I feel total peace of mind knowing Cy is in Stephanie’s care. She consistently goes above and beyond, keeps me updated, and treats Cy like he’s her own. If you’re looking for a cat / pet sitter who is experienced, thoughtful, responsive, and deeply caring, Stephanie is it. I/we feel so lucky to have found her and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Great experience with Jessie! Very easy to deal with, punctual and (most important, of course) the feline boss of my household was taken care of, when I needed coverage. Would recommend!”
“Never saw my kitties warm up to someone so quickly. Elizabeth is wonderful!!! So much thought and care. When she first met the kitties, she even asked about cat carriers in the event she had to carry the cats out in an emergency. Elizabeth was super intuitive with our furballs and could tell when they wanted to play and when they were distracted. Would definitely hire her again and again and again.”
“Kathy was amazing for my two friendly cats! To start, she was super collaborative about timing and appt access. Then she was responsive and attentive as she dropped-in. I could tell by their moods when I returned that they were taken care of well. I will be happy to continue working with her!”
“We love illyiana! She’s really wonderful with our very stressy cat. We were recently away for over two weeks and could see from the photos, that our kitty was pretty happy and being well looked after, with illyiana visiting her daily. Will definitely book in the future.”
“Sarah was amazing! She did a great job with our dog on short notice and was attentive and excellent at communicating. Highly recommended - we will definitely use her again.”
“As in the past, I will continue to use Angela as she always provides superb service and care for my pet. She goes above and beyond as my flight was canceled and she was able to step in for additional care while I couldnt get back. Thank you!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Gramercy
“Penny Lane had an excellent first visit with Maria and Fonzie. Maria was very in tune with getting off to a good start and slowly introducing her to the environment and to her new friend. Looking forward to our next stay with Maria.”
“Sarah was an incredible sitter. We left our dog with her while we went out for a concert and she was extremely accommodating and flexible. She made herself available earlier, she fed our turbo with chicken and rice because we didn’t have his food on us, so she gave him her own food so he wouldn’t be hungry until late, and she was flexible with the pick up time being late because we were at a concert. She kept us updated with lots of photos, which I love! 10/10 sitter, would definitely recommend and leave my dog with her again.”
About: I love dogs (and cats!) I just love them so much :) My husband and I have cared for our disabled Labrador since she was 5 months old (she’s now 7), so I’m very comfortable with special needs and senior dogs. I also grew up with a dog so I am experienced with puppies and basic training. I genuinely love dogs and treat every one like my own! I’m home full-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care. I’m available throughout the week for both daycare and boarding. I live in an apartment with an elevator. I have plenty of space for play, meals, and cuddles, and I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely and adapt to their individual needs, whether they’re active, chill or somewhere in between.
“Kathy is AWESOME. She has been sitting Jolly for the last couple of months, many times and she has become our go to care taker and big sister for Jolly. We love working with her and most importantly Jolly adores her. I can tell how happy he is when he sees Kathy. Kathy sends me constant updates about what Jolly is up to, even the solidity of his poo, sends pictures and videos of him throughout the day. She takes Jolly to walks, to the dog park multiple times a day. She even gave him a special diet when Jolly had diarrhea and offered to cook chicken for him. In a couple of weeks, both my wife and I will be working and Kathy accepted to take Jolly to the training class. We have complete peace of mind when we leave Jolly, our little boy, with Kathy. Thank you so much Kathy! We are so lucky to have you!”
“I am very happy with Dalena’s services. She was very detailed in asking the right questions for taking care of my dog Pepper and sent updates and photos throughout the day. Upon pickup, my clingy pups refused to leave Dalena’s care. I highly recommend Delana as you can tell she is very responsible, trustworthy, and truly a dog person”
“Michael and his partner were incredibly flexible,kind, and took nice care of my dog. They were great when I was nervous given they were watching him right after he had been sick. I highly recommend.”
“Adrienne was awesome! She was able to accommodate our last minute request for daycare and was very patient in dealing with Scooby as we did not realize he won’t climb the stairs! She was kind enough to carry him and Scooby unfortunately is not light lol. Highly recommend her and Thanks again Adrienne!!”
“Amanda was wonderful with out dachshund, Lola, who fell in love with her very quickly. Lola can be a bit of a handful (big personality, Napoleon syndrome) but Amanda knew how to handle her, and it sounds like they both had a great time. I know Lola got lots of cuddles and activity, and after the first day (when she was nervous being left with a stranger), she was very excited to see Amanda every morning.”
“Great dog sitter! Very caring, reliable, and attentive. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with you. I really appreciate your patience and the love you showed him—especially since he can be a bit anxious. Definitely would book again! Thank you so much!”
“BOOK SAMANTHA. She’s fabulous! We were traveling through New York and I needed to find someone I trusted. She was totally great with Trixie’s separation anxiety. Trixie adored Samm and was excited to see her again! I’m going commend her to my NYC friends! Trixie misses you!”
“Viviane was an amazing help with Mocha for daycare. Her apt is clean and dog-safe. She sent many cute photos of Mochs throughout the day. I could tell he was well taken care of, comfortable, and had a lot of fun during his stay. Would def book her again.”
“This was my 10 month old Jack’s first time at Doggie Day care. The moment we met her, Jarianna’s “eyes lit up” with love and affection for Jack. She immediately handled Jack as if he was her own, bringing confidence to me that I had made to right choice. Feeding, walking, play time and especially nap time were all on point. We will definitely be repeat clients. 🐾 🐶🐾🐶”
“Lisa was so easy and quick to communicate with! She helped me out with Hugo on a somewhat last minute request and made the entire thing seamless. He was happy and tired after a day of daycare which is always a good sign!”
“Xiaohui was an incredible sitter for Milo! After mentioning he's a high energy dog, she took him on extra long walks to make sure he's well exercised. Xiaohui also took amazing photos of him with the Manhattan skyline and even edited them. Thanks for giving Milo so much attention and love! He came home very happy”
“We recently moved to NYC, and finding someone Wookiee truly loved was one of the most stressful parts of the move. We’re so glad we found Janis! Wookiee felt comfortable right away. Highly recommend!”
“Poppy gets nervous with new people, and Kendall did an amazing job making sure she felt safe and cared for. I got tons of updates throughout the day too. Definitely recommend!”
“Eloise was so excited to see Michael again! Thank you for taking such good care of her and having such patience for her during her wild puppy phase. We appreciate you so much!”
“David was super friendly and responsive from the start. He was caring, responsible, and communicative throughout the day, and made us feel so confident and relieved knowing Elsie was in good hands. Thank you, David!”

“This is our 3rd walk date with Lauren and she is a Very special person. She goes above and beyond, and this time I needed her help keeping an eye on my pup who has a bad leg. She treated him with kindness, and love and communicated with me the whole time. Very happy to have her 🫶”

“Kathy did an awesome job with our dog Finley while we were visiting the city. She was prompt, responsible, and took great care of our girl. Would definitely book again.”

“Mary was fantastic with Nova! She followed all of my instructions and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Nova was well cared for and in great hands. I would absolutely book Mary again.”
About: I treat every dog like my own, taking the time to understand their personality, needs and little quirks while making every walk fun and safe! I am available most of the time with a flexible schedule. I also work part time but I’m happy to coordinate around your pup’s needs! I provide a safe, clean and comfortable environment while following each pet’s routine and individual needs. I give them consistent attention, supervision, exercise, and care
About: I am a native New Yorker and grew up in an apartment with a large breed dog - I have extensive experience walking dogs in Manhattan and know how to keep your furry child safe and exercised. I have extensive experience watching senior dogs and puppies for our friends and family. I have a 6 year old Shiba Inu, Boris, who I've had since he was a puppy and trained. As any dog parent knows, the unexpected is expected with a pup, and my years of experience enable me to monitor behavior and habit and identify anything of concern. I 100% WFH and will always be with your pup. I live in NYC dog paradise in a private community filled with safe, clean paved sidewalks to stroll your pup! I am a business owner and I WFH, so your dog will never be left alone. I am available to take your pup out for walks throughout the day. Your dog will have a blast staying with us! We live in Stuyvesant Town which is a beautiful private community next to the East River filled with greenery, and clean, safe paved sidewalks to stroll on. Without car traffic, pups enjoy peaceful and nature-filled walks. We also have a small fenced-in dog run in our community that our pup enjoys, and I can take your pup there too if your pup is comfortable with, and behaves well in, social dog settings. While at home, your pup is welcome to lounge on the couch, in a dog bed, or even in our bed! If you have trained your dog not to lounge on furniture and/or have crate trained your dog, I can also accommodate that. As a dog dad myself, the most important thing for me is trust in the person watching Boris - that the sitter will love Boris like their own pup and that if should something unexpected happen, I can trust the sitter to take action appropriately. Rest assured that your pup will be loved and pampered just like Boris is, and will be walked by someone who is confident, assertive, and very observant. You should be able to enjoy your time away worry-free and knowing that your pup will be kept safe and happy!
“Andrew is a Nice Young Man & My Dog Rusty liked him from the time he met him! Andrew gave him a Great Walk with Lots of of Exercise that Rusty needs!! Will definitely be using him Again!”
“Sarah is fan great. She is quick to respond to messages, punctual, and clearly loves dogs. She sends helpful updates and photos, so I always feel at ease knowing Olive is in good hands. Highly recommend.”
“Putting it simply Giulia is awesome! She is caring, communicative, proactive, reliable and responsible. Watson took to her right away. She has been walking our pup twice a week and it has been great. It’s very reassuring to know that he is in her care. I would definitely recommend her!!”
“Maxx seems to be warming up to Belladonna. He is often difficult with strangers, but seems to be OK with her. Belladonna is always on time and is friendly and courteous. We're looking forward to continuing our weekly weekend walks.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have plenty of hands on experience caring for pets. I’m my sisters main dog sitter, so I’m very comfortable with walks, feeding, and playtime. I work from home Mondays and Friday and I am available to do walk after 5pm on Tuesday-Thursday. I am available on weekday ends as well Whether I am in my home or my clients, they are always being watched and cared for. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles while giving them plenty of attention and care.
About: Hi, I'm Hailey! I've been pet sitting since I was 15, and for the past two years I've been booking sits once or twice a month. Dogs, cats, high energy, low energy, I've cared for them all and I genuinely love it. I'm a super active person, so if your pet loves being outside, we're going to get along great. Long walks, playing fetch in the yard, extra time in the fresh air, that's my happy place too. Your dog will never be bored on my watch, and your cat will get all the window sunbathing and chin scratches their heart desires. Your pet's routine stays exactly the same with me. Walks, playtime, feedings, litter duty, meds... whatever they need, I've got it covered. And because I know leaving your pet with someone new is nerve wracking, I send photo updates and check-ins so you always know how they're doing (spoiler: they're doing great). Can't wait to meet your crew! I work from home, which means your pet is never home alone all day. They get constant company, midday snuggles, and someone to talk to (yes, I'm that person who narrates my day to the dog). My schedule has built-in breaks, so morning walks, lunchtime yard sessions, and evening strolls slide right into my routine. Honestly, having a furry coworker makes my workday better, so it's a win for both of us. I offer pet sitting in your home, because let's be real, pets are happiest in their own space! Staying in familiar territory means less stress for them and total peace of mind for you. I follow their normal routine down to the details: feeding times, walk schedules, favorite toys, where they're allowed to sleep (and where they sneak onto anyway). I treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet, and I'll leave everything just how I found it. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, relaxed pet who barely noticed you were gone.
