“Jared was so great! He sent videos and photos throughout the visit and was very responsive when I reached out. His dogs were also very playful and made Levi’s sleepover so fun! Thanks Jared so being such a great sitter :)”

“Lois was so wonderful w my pup. She is conscientious and takes dog sitting very seriously, which gave me lots of peace of mind being away all day. We’ll definitely be booking her again next time I need a sitter!”

“We only used family in the past to watch Milo, so we were a bit nervous. Cindy was by far excellent. She took good care of him, gave him love as if he was her own. We recommend her highly.”

“Jessica is fantastic! She was calm and caring with our dog, Finnegan. She made him feel at home and provided us updates on how he was doing. Finnegan was so excited to go back a few days later.”


About: Hi, I’m Ariel! 🐾 Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From growing up caring for family pets to rescuing dogs in need, I’ve spent decades learning how to understand and care for pups of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m now a proud dog mom to two dogs of my own, both of whom I’ve personally trained from puppyhood. I’ve navigated everything from potty training, crate training, leash manners, and basic obedience to caring for senior dogs who need a little extra patience, comfort, and attention. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a spirited adult, or a sweet senior, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I understand that every pup has unique needs, routines, and quirks, and I take the time to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Expect plenty of walks, playtime, belly rubs, photo updates, and one on one attention. My goal is simple: for your dog to have such a great time that they’re excited to see me again! 🐶💕 Spending the summer in Sag Harbor, I’m fortunate to have access to beautiful walking routes and dog friendly areas, making every outing an adventure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely dog-obsessed, I’m here to provide the same level of care I’d want for my own pups. I'm up in Sag Harbor for the summer and currently semi retired from my 14 year career in property management. With two pups of my own I am fully capable of feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and some medical. I'm great at understanding the different personalities dogs may have. I will ensure your pups are always safe and well taken care of so you can stay worry free.
“Tessa was great with our golden retriever, and we're so glad our precious pup was able to stay with her. Her lovely home is on a secluded lake and is still very close to Southampton town center. She took our pup for walks both places and cared for her very well. Our pup was a happy camper when we picked her up having had a wonderful stay with Tessa. Thank you!”

“Jessica is amazing!! She went above and beyond for us by extending her time with no notice, buying a new harness for our puppy and even getting new dog food. And, our dogs come home happy and tired! A+++”


“Patrycja was great! She walked Oshie frequently and sent photos daily. When I arrived, Oshie was glad to see me, but also acted like he would have gladly gone back inside her house if I had let him 😂. I highly recommend Patrycja and will use her again if needed!”

“Jill and her husband Doug were great hosts for our young, active Border Collie. They went out of their way to meet our needs. I had mentioned that Louie liked to chase a Frisbee, and when we arrived Jill had added one to her big bucket of dog toys. I was happy about the big play yard, but while we were away I received some pictures from Jill of Louie and his pals running at the beach. What a great place to leave my pet!”

“My Scrappy (who is a 2 year old Pomeranian/ Poodle Mix male) stayed with Maria, Eric, and Penny (their fur baby girl) for 12 days. Scrappy and Penny had a meet and greet prior to booking. They hit it off. They were like long lost loves. Scrappy is one to be pretty scrappy at times, so I had to check the fence line because he likes to try to dig. They have a very secure backyard that made me feel comfortable to leave him there too. Maria said she would be out there with them, which made me feel better. But the fence was very secure anyway. Maria sent me photos and videos daily of Scrappy and Penny playing in the snowy backyard, napping together, and enjoying each other’s company. Scrappy seemed very happy and content staying with the family. Unfortunately, Scrappy had to say farewell to Penny for now. When I picked him up there was another fur friend there too, who was an elderly regular. He seemed like a sweetheart too. It was nice to see Scrappy had so many few friends. Maria’s sending us pictures and videos made me smile while we were away. It made me feel like he was doing well and he was happy and it provided me with a great sense of comfort to know he was being well taken care of. I would recommend Maria and her family for pet sitting. Maria herself was very nice and welcoming to me and my family. Eric seemed very pleasant and sweet and Penny was a beautiful and lovable dog, whom I wanted to bring home with us. Lol. Glad we picked them for Scrappy. Thank you Maria, Eric and Penny!!! All the best, Victoria, Tom and Scrappy”

“Christine was amazing to our pup while we stayed at a house that does not allow dogs. She is super friendly and caring. A true dog lover. We dropped off our dog on her Birthday and Christine sent special photos helping her celebrate it. Thanks again!”

About: I’ve been caring for my own pets for years, including my 7-year-old dog and my cat. I genuinely love working with animals and take their safety, comfort, and well-being seriously. I’m currently enrolled in an Animal Science program, where I’ve learned proper handling techniques, animal behavior, safety protocols, and basic health knowledge. This training, combined with my hands-on experience as a dog bather, has made me confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable reading body language, keeping dogs calm, and ensuring they feel secure and well cared for. Caring for animals is part of my daily routine, and I prioritize both structure and attention. Dogs are fed on schedule, given regular supervised outdoor time in my fenced yard, and have time to play and relax in a calm environment. I am available most weekdays after 3 pm and all day on Sundays. During boarding and daycare stays, there is always an adult present in the home to ensure supervision. I am the primary caregiver and handle the majority of care, but pets are never left unattended. In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and structured environment. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and a pet friendly indoor space where dogs can relax comfortably. Dogs are never left outside unattended, and safety is always my top priority. I maintain a calm setting and monitor interactions carefully to ensure everyone stays comfortable. I follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide. My goal is to create a secure, consistent environment where every pet feels safe and well cared for.
“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”

“This past weekend we went away last minute, after looking unsuccessfully for someone to board our dog Holly based on a friend's recommendation. We were out of luck. I then checked out Rover and found Julie, thank goodness she was available at such short notice. Making plans and arrangements were seamless, you could tell she loves dogs (all animals) and would enjoy taking care of our Holly. Julie was 100% flexible with drop-off and pickup times, followed all our instructions for Holly. Julie sent regular pictures or communication of how the day was going, which I appreciated tremendously because Holly is a puppy and we haven't been away from her since we got her. Holly seemed to enjoy herself, she got to play with 2 other dogs and she even met Julie's cats and they all got along wonderfully. I think we found our regular person for taking care of Holly in the future. Thank you again so much.”

“Melissa was excellent! Took amazing care of our senior dog for one week like he was one of her own. Great communication. We definitely will be asking her to watch him again — highly recommend!”

“Grace was a great cat sitter for us over the Thanksgiving weekend! She is very dependable and an excellent communicator. She sent us good pics of our elusive cat! Thanks, Grace”


“Erika saved the day when she so graciously accepted a last minute booking for my cat and kittens I rescued who recently had spay/neuter surgery. My mom lives 7-8 hours away and was in a bad car accident. It was too soon to leave the kittens overnight with drop-ins. Erika came and stayed with them for two nights so I could be with my mom. She was super kind and put me right at ease. She kept me updated and as hard as it is to believe I didn’t worry about them at all. She even set food out for a family of community cats who have mostly moved in on my back porch. I’d hire her again without any reservations. A bonus, the house was all tidied up when I got home from my long trip.”


“Jenette is amazing with our snow bengal kitty. She loves when she comes to visit her and enjoys playing with Jenette. We have and will continue to book Jenette for our Archie girl. Highly recommended!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and my own for a while. Friends and family always rely on me with pet care they need. I also volunteer at my local animal shelter during my free time. I am a very reliable individual and care for others, especially our furry friends! I currently go to college full time, but I do have some time during the holidays and weekends. I have a lot more availability when I am back home. When I am caring for pets at a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions provided. I send updates to reassure the owner. I always make sure pets feel comfortable in their safe environment!

About: Hi there, I’m Brenda! 🐱💕 I’m a dedicated cat sitter with a background in animal care. I’ve completed a vet assistant certification and have worked in a local veterinary clinic in Sag Habor, gaining hands-on experience in feline health and well-being. I also spent time working in an animal shelter in Brazil, caring for cats of all ages, including rescues with special needs. I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your cat needs gentle care, medication, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I’m here to provide the attention they deserve. Your kitty’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to care for them as if they were my own! Looking forward to meeting you and your feline friend! 🐾💕

“Hanna did an amazing job taking care of my cat Pepper! She was prompt, checked in with me several times and Pepper seemed very happy when I came home-would definitely recommend her.”


“He was really excellent! He took wonderful care of my diabetic cat, who requires insulin and was very attendant on sending me pictures of my baby. Will definitely be using him again!!!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I turned that love into my full-time career! I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes & temperaments - from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’ve built my business around providing safe, structured & loving care in a home environment. Our pets are members of our family & leaving them home alone is never easy, so I hope to provide pet owners with some peace of mind when they leave for work or a long vacation. I always send updates throughout the visit so that pet parents can stay informed & up-to-date on their pet's wellbeing. This isn’t just a job to me — it’s something I truly care about and feel proud to do every day. When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family. Pet care is my full-time business, which means I’m home & with the dogs all day — providing consistent supervision, structured walks, enrichment, playtime, and plenty of love & attention. My days are built around the dogs, so their comfort, safety & happiness always come first. My home is designed with dogs in mind. It’s a fully dog-friendly space where pups have free rein & are never confined. I have a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor time, plus custom dog turf to protect against tick exposure in the warmer months. It’s meant to feel like a home away from home - relaxed, safe & comfortable.

“Jared provided cat sitting in my home for a week and did a great job keeping my cat company, well fed and taken care of. Provided me regular updates including photos and was accommodating of other household tasks while I was away. As a first time user, I was a little wary of Rover, but Jared provided great services and put my mind to ease. Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been taking care/training dogs of all breeds for years now. I just love pets and spending time with them! I’m looking forward to hanging out with anyone’s pets. :) I am currently working part time and I own my own business, I’m very open so I will be able to take care of your pet anytime you need. I have a fenced yard and I have a friendly labradoodle perfect environment for other dogs . My neighborhood is very relaxed and would love to have another furry friend around! :)
“Nicole is so professional and kind hearted, and has a plentiful experience with dogs in f all kinds. Our dog Cara is very shy, and didn’t have much time with Nicole this time around, but will in the future!”

About: When I take care of your pet I will treat them like part of the family. I have over a decade of experience caring for pets of all sizes. I can also take care of small pets like Rabbits, Hamsters, Guinea pigs, and even Birds. Past employers have described me as optimistic, dependable, enthusiastic, and motivated to provide the best care. Ensuring the safety of the pet is a top priority. The safety steps I take in advance is always keeping a firm grip on the leash while walking, keeping an eye out on the overall environment that the pet is in, never leaving anything edible out on the counter within a home, making sure the dog is hydrated or fed if needed, and always having my cell phone on me. Communication is key. I am always able to deliver a full written detailed report along with photos to the owner. I understand each pet has their own unique personality and needs. I grew up taking care of multiple dogs within my immediate family. Friends of mine would always ask for me to care for their dogs too. I believe all pets deserve the best care. I will gladly cuddle your pet or give them hugs if they enjoy so. Some activities that I do when I work with dogs is taking them on long energizing walks or runs if they prefer, playing ball in the park, feeding or giving fresh water. It would be a joy to help care for your pet! I have one dog living with me named Bruno , 3 others live with my brother. Usually I get up in the morning and run errands. When I get up I usually walk Bruno in the morning and afternoon if I don’t have any clients. I take very good care of my dog Bruno and will treat your dog the same way. I find it important to have a connection with the dog, so they feel more comfortable and happy. So doing daily walks twice a day, playing with the dog, giving the dog the attention it wants is what I’m really good at. I cannot board right now because of a lot of construction at the house. I can do house sits and drop in visits and walks.

“Joseph has been a great addition to the fur village that has taken care of Bishop. It’s been a crazy year and we are so thankful to know we have Aunties and Kuyas helping us during long work days to keep this once stray pup feeling like he is part of big Ohana!”


“CaraLynn was excellent with our two skittish Shetland Sheepdogs. She sent us pictures and updates of their activities and meals throughout the day, which made our time apart from them less stressful and worrisome. One of our dogs typically doesn't eat when placed in an unfamiliar environment, but he did so with CaraLynn. That is a positive reflection on her and how dogs respond to her. My wife and I recommend CaraLynn highly and would use her for dog-sitting services again in an instant.”


“Jared is probably the best dog sitter around. Very caring and loving to our pretty high energy 1.5-year-old lab. Wife and I enjoy the daily photos of her. Jared is a real peace of mind and takes the worries about leaving your pet for the afternoon, evening or weekend. I highly recommend him. Kevin B”

“My dog loved her stay with Maria. She was well prepared, organized, loving and accepting of my dog and made sure she felt like a part of the group with her dogs. I could tell when I picked my dog up how much fun she had while staying with Maria and I would recommend her to anyone needing a safe and fun interactive environment for their dog. I will be using Maria again without a doubt.”

“Jessica was great with our beagle Paco. We had to cancel the original date we planned to leave him and she was very understanding. When we reached out again she was very quick to respond. I would leave Paco with Jessica again he was very happy when I picked him up. I’m very attached to Paco so it was amazing receiving pictures and videos of him knowing he was in great hands. Will definitely be leaving Paco again in the future”

“Melissa was so nice and accommodating. She even offered to pick up and drop off our dog since it was our wedding. Cruz came back happy as can be and she shared some videos of him playing and having a great time. Would definitely use her again.”

“Cait was awesome with Arlo, who I had just adopted a couple months before and had to come with me on a work trip. I basically had to drop him and run on the first day, and he barked at her! Cait was super sweet and had his tail wagging w/in minutes. She accommodated some schedule changes, enforced his training commands, and did super fun stuff with him. She was sad to see him go, which I took as the mark of someone who really cares about animals!!”

“Emily was amazing. Duke really took to her and had a great day. He came home a very happy and tired dog, which is always great sign!!! We will definitely be using her help again!”

“Cindy was absolutely wonderful! We stayed over Fourth of July weekend while we were in town for a wedding, and she made our experience so welcoming from start to finish. She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure our pup was well cared for. Traveling with a dog can sometimes be stressful, but Cindy made us feel completely at ease and was so kind and accommodating.

I am happy to accommodate a schedule that fits your family’s needs and lifestyle! As a pet owner I know how important it is to give your pet lots of love and attention, especially when they might be missing you! I will make them feel loved and important!💜
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, from the day I was born to now! I volunteered at an animal shelter for a year too! I love animals and I love working with them, and hopefully that will become my future career♥️ I take care of my dogs daily and I walk them everyday. I am currently a full time student at a college, so for the summer I will be available every day. But starting late August, I will be starting my 3rd semester so I will be only available on the weekend’s! I wash my dogs, I take them on long walks, I feed them, and they love to cuddle. They are now senior dogs, so they sleep more often, but they are given the love and care that they need!😊
“Amanda was great with Cooper and super sweet! He loved his walk and proudly showed her how much he loves sticks! She was great with communication and did a meet and greet the day before. Would definitely have her care for Cooper again! Thank you!”

About: I’ve been taking care/training dogs of all breeds for years now. I just love pets and spending time with them! I’m looking forward to hanging out with anyone’s pets. :) I am currently working part time and I own my own business, I’m very open so I will be able to take care of your pet anytime you need. I have a fenced yard and I have a friendly labradoodle perfect environment for other dogs . My neighborhood is very relaxed and would love to have another furry friend around! :)
About: I’ve taken care of the dogs in my neighborhood since I was 11. I’ve dogsat for neighbors and walked dogs before. Most of my family has dogs so when they go out of town I watch their pets. I train for soccer every morning, so dog walking is a great way for me to stay active and keep my legs stretched and warm. I have a super flexible schedule outside of my morning training! I will mainly be walking dogs and will make sure they are hydrated, are able to do their business, and enjoy their time out in the sun and nature! If I am dog sitting in your home I will make sure the dog feels comfortable in his home and that everything is in order when I arrive and leave!
About: I'm a long time volunteer with Friends of the Homeless Animals and I have two rescue dogs of my own. We are a dog loving family and have a very pet friendly home, My dogs have always been very welcoming and have been great with the dozens of foster dogs we've had in and out of our house over the last decade. We decided to try boarding in our home-- we know how difficult it is to go away and worry about your pet. We have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs—our goal is always to give the dogs space and time to relax and feel comfortable. I've done everything from giving insulin shots to oral vaccines. I've had dogs with separation anxiety, dementia, dog aggression--you name an issue, I've had a foster dog with it!, My 26 year old daughter is often with us and is wonderful with dogs and helps out quite a bit. She stands in for me if I have to be away. I work from home, so I am always around. We take walks in our neighborhood and I always make sure someone is around when we are boarding a dog We are fenced in and make it a point to be extremely watchful of the dogs in our home. We don’t take our boarding dogs off the leash.
About: I grew up with dogs and have a very large very hyper guy currently. I started walking dogs when I was in elementary school and dog sat during Covid. I’ve also owned dogs through every stage of their life, from 8 weeks to 16 years old. I work restaurant hours Thursday through Sunday, 3 to 11. This means I have 3 days completely free and I’m available every morning and afternoon. I can’t do anything in my own home because my dog isn’t very good at making friends, but because of that I am very good with walking and caring for more challenging dogs

About: I’m a dependable, attentive, dog lover with a genuine passion for providing safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each pup’s personality and pace. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take pride in building trust with both pets and their parents. Whether your dog needs an energetic adventure or a calm, steady stroll, I’m here to help keep their routine consistent and their tails wagging. References are available upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!🩷 I’m currently enrolled in Farmingdale State College and work part time. I will be available during the day and on weekends to help you care for your pets! I will make sure that your dog gets the proper exercise needed and fresh water with every visit. I do not walk in inclimate weather!!!!!
“Very impressed with Hannah! Very loving and attentive and brings water for her walk! Will absolutely continue to use her. Totally trust her with Bjorn and love her pictures and videos!”

“Dayanara is the sweetest person ever! She is trustworthy, reliable and she connected with my dog, Baby Bear, instantly. If you need help with your furry best friend don’t hesitate for one second and reach out to Daya!!”

“Jared was so great! He sent videos and photos throughout the visit and was very responsive when I reached out. His dogs were also very playful and made Levi’s sleepover so fun! Thanks Jared so being such a great sitter :)”

“We only used family in the past to watch Milo, so we were a bit nervous. Cindy was by far excellent. She took good care of him, gave him love as if he was her own. We recommend her highly.”

“Jessica is fantastic! She was calm and caring with our dog, Finnegan. She made him feel at home and provided us updates on how he was doing. Finnegan was so excited to go back a few days later.”


About: Hi, I’m Ariel! 🐾 Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From growing up caring for family pets to rescuing dogs in need, I’ve spent decades learning how to understand and care for pups of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m now a proud dog mom to two dogs of my own, both of whom I’ve personally trained from puppyhood. I’ve navigated everything from potty training, crate training, leash manners, and basic obedience to caring for senior dogs who need a little extra patience, comfort, and attention. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a spirited adult, or a sweet senior, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I understand that every pup has unique needs, routines, and quirks, and I take the time to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Expect plenty of walks, playtime, belly rubs, photo updates, and one on one attention. My goal is simple: for your dog to have such a great time that they’re excited to see me again! 🐶💕 Spending the summer in Sag Harbor, I’m fortunate to have access to beautiful walking routes and dog friendly areas, making every outing an adventure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely dog-obsessed, I’m here to provide the same level of care I’d want for my own pups. I'm up in Sag Harbor for the summer and currently semi retired from my 14 year career in property management. With two pups of my own I am fully capable of feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and some medical. I'm great at understanding the different personalities dogs may have. I will ensure your pups are always safe and well taken care of so you can stay worry free.
“Tessa was great with our golden retriever, and we're so glad our precious pup was able to stay with her. Her lovely home is on a secluded lake and is still very close to Southampton town center. She took our pup for walks both places and cared for her very well. Our pup was a happy camper when we picked her up having had a wonderful stay with Tessa. Thank you!”

“Jessica is amazing!! She went above and beyond for us by extending her time with no notice, buying a new harness for our puppy and even getting new dog food. And, our dogs come home happy and tired! A+++”

“Jill and her husband Doug were great hosts for our young, active Border Collie. They went out of their way to meet our needs. I had mentioned that Louie liked to chase a Frisbee, and when we arrived Jill had added one to her big bucket of dog toys. I was happy about the big play yard, but while we were away I received some pictures from Jill of Louie and his pals running at the beach. What a great place to leave my pet!”

“My Scrappy (who is a 2 year old Pomeranian/ Poodle Mix male) stayed with Maria, Eric, and Penny (their fur baby girl) for 12 days. Scrappy and Penny had a meet and greet prior to booking. They hit it off. They were like long lost loves. Scrappy is one to be pretty scrappy at times, so I had to check the fence line because he likes to try to dig. They have a very secure backyard that made me feel comfortable to leave him there too. Maria said she would be out there with them, which made me feel better. But the fence was very secure anyway. Maria sent me photos and videos daily of Scrappy and Penny playing in the snowy backyard, napping together, and enjoying each other’s company. Scrappy seemed very happy and content staying with the family. Unfortunately, Scrappy had to say farewell to Penny for now. When I picked him up there was another fur friend there too, who was an elderly regular. He seemed like a sweetheart too. It was nice to see Scrappy had so many few friends. Maria’s sending us pictures and videos made me smile while we were away. It made me feel like he was doing well and he was happy and it provided me with a great sense of comfort to know he was being well taken care of. I would recommend Maria and her family for pet sitting. Maria herself was very nice and welcoming to me and my family. Eric seemed very pleasant and sweet and Penny was a beautiful and lovable dog, whom I wanted to bring home with us. Lol. Glad we picked them for Scrappy. Thank you Maria, Eric and Penny!!! All the best, Victoria, Tom and Scrappy”

“Christine was amazing to our pup while we stayed at a house that does not allow dogs. She is super friendly and caring. A true dog lover. We dropped off our dog on her Birthday and Christine sent special photos helping her celebrate it. Thanks again!”

“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”

“Carlos is such a wonderful dog sitter! He really cares about your pet while they are with him. We are returning clients and will absolutely continue to schedule with him. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Ruby!”


“Our dog Phoebe loved her stay with Jeff! We appreciated knowing she was made to feel like part of his family, given lots of attention, walks, and play time. Jeff communicated daily including lots of pictures. Jeff’s knowledge and genuine love of dogs is so apparent and we wont hesitate to rebook with him in the future!”

“Our experience with Natalia was amazing! She provided many updates and pictures to us which helped us so much, as this was our first time leaving our pup in someone else’s hands. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in the best care. Highly recommend Natalia and will be using her care again!”

“Tara S and her family are amazing ?. They took such good care of my Louie - including washing all of his bedding the day I came to get him. She has two good sized good natured dogs that kept him busy the entire time we were gone. I highly recommend her if you have a good natured medium sized dog they likes companionship & playtime. My Louie is about 90 lbs just so you have an idea of what I mean by good sized dog. We will absolutely use them again ?”

About: I have an immense amount of love for all animals. I enjoy getting to know each individual pet and their needs. It brings me joy to connect with each one of them. I am a seasonal farm worker. I am outdoors most days in nature, whether at the farm or in the garden. I spend lots of time walking in nature. I have a home in Southampton, close to nature trails and the ocean beaches. I also have an apartment in Brooklyn where I frequent the parks nearby. I have a small Boston terrier mix who is a delight to be around for humans and animals alike. I am happy to accommodate to your pets needs.
“I read Matt and Kirsten’s reviews when I needed to board my dog in a pinch, and I thought these reviews may be overstating how wonderful they are. The truth is, they are UNDERSTATING it. I’m not sure nicer, sweeter, more attentive dog sitters exist. They were so true and genuine in their caring of my 2 yr old lab - maybe even more than I am and I’m a pretty crazy dog mom. I felt so at ease on my trip because I knew how happy my hound was and M + K communicated with frequency and love. My dog had THE best time. Thanks so much for an amazing stay for Danny and incredible peace of mind for me.”

“Hannah was amazing! She watched our boy for 5 days on a short notice. This was Ryder’s first time away from family. She took such great care of him! We really loved all of her updates with pictures & videos of their activities together. Ryder came back very relaxed and happy. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much, Hannah! ❤️”
