“Diana is friendly, caring, responsible and she is a great dog sitter. She sent photos and videos everyday and went above and beyond to take care of my shiba inu. In addition, her dog Wendy was a wonderdul playmate for my shiba. She provided a safe, clean and fun environment for the care of my dog.”


“Nina and Augustine were amazing sitters for our dog and we highly recommend! Very responsive while we were away and on drop off / pick up. They have a great home and environment for dogs and we will definitely rebook with them again soon!”

“Robert did a great job with our pups! He took them on lots of adventures, gave them plenty of opportunity to play outside in the yard, and kept us updated with pictures, etc. Also, he was so kind and flexible when our flight back home got delayed! We will definitely be using him again when we go out of town.”

“We were worried that our Laima would have a hard time with separation anxiety, (first time away from us in the 2 yrs since we rescued her) but Rene and her pups made her feel right at home. The pictures she posted spoke volume on how well Laima enjoyed her stay! We hope to use Rene again soon!”

“Our twelve year old chipoo had a wonderful stay with Rafaelina over the holidays. I could tell he was given lots of exercise, attention and love. We received several update pics and notes each day as well, which was very comforting. Highly recommended!”

“Doreen was absolutely wonderful. We were very nervous to leave Chloe, but she had access to the bed (we let her sleep with us), the backyard, the run of the home and endless cuddles from Doreen. We left a piece of our heart with her for two weeks and she kept us updated everyday with videos and pictures and letting us know that Chloe was eating well and loved the other dogs she was with. Chloe is 12 and stopped playing with toys years ago, at Doreens she decided to play with toys again. It was so heartwarming to see, we will be using Doreen for all our petsitting needs with Chloe.”

“Jennifer was wonderful. Communicative and extremely flexible. Received daily pictures of our pup who was happily exhausted on pickup day. Will definitely leave Fleur there again.”

“Kevin and his family were great dog sitters! They had our dog in their house for the weekend and she seemed to love it there. She had a chair she sat in, they took her on great walks and overall followed her routine. We would definitely use them again!”

“Elizaveta took such good care of Storm! She sent me pictures and videos throughout Storm’s stay and she along so well with Elizaveta’s puppy. Having just moved to the area, I’m so happy I found someone I feel comfortable leaving my baby with.”


“Charmaine is great!! Friendly, professional, great communication. Our 10-yr old chihuahua mix was in good hands and we received daily updates and photos, which were much appreciated!!! Thanks Charmaine!!!”

“Karine was great with our elderly dog. She was taken care of in every way possible. We would definitely use her again. She and her husband definitely know how to meet the needs of our little old dog.”

“Thanks for another great stay for Teddy! He feels so welcome and loved in your home, it has become his second home! He truly loves being with your family and we love being able to travel knowing he is so well taken care of!”

“I have encountered a lot of dog lovers but not like Will! My dog fit in perfectly, and honestly I loved that! I will definitely use Will services again, and even recommend a few of my friends that have dogs. If you looking for a Nanny that is a 10/10 , Will is your person .”

“Sunny was a wonderful dog sitter! She was friendly and attentive. She made our family feel comfortable leaving our 15 year old dog when we were away on vacation. She communicated daily sending updates and pictures. We can tell Caesar had a great time. Thank you Sunny for taking such good care of our dog. We will definitely use Sunny again in the future!”

“I’m so grateful to have found Maureen to care for my sweet Lola while I was away! Lola can be a bit shy and isn’t always great with other dogs, but Maureen knew exactly how to handle her with so much patience and love. She really took the time to understand Lola’s needs and quirks, from giving her the cuddles she loves to making sure she had her peaceful walks without any stress. I could tell how happy Lola was when I came back—she was relaxed, content, and clearly well taken care of. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your fur baby, but Maureen exceeded my expectations in every way. I can’t thank her enough for giving Lola the attention and care she deserves. It was like she was on her own little vacation! It’s clear Maureen genuinely cares and goes the extra mile to ensure pets are happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Thank you Maureen!!”


“Saiad was a trustworthy and reliable sitter during Max's stay. Max can be an insecure dog, but Saiad made sure he felt comfortable and well cared for throughout his visit. He followed all of our instructions, accommodated a meet-and-greet beforehand, and made sure Max had a great time playing fetch and enjoying his stay. Would love to book with him again!”

“I can't thank Chialing enough for accepting my last-minute boarding request. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated with lots of videos and photos, and even made sure my pet's tablet was taken care of. It was clear she cared for my pet like her own and provided detailed updates throughout. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! Thanks again.”

“Alexis was amazing and she was so thoughtful to send us videos during our time away from our pup, Rosie! The fact that she would be the one reaching out to us during our vacation definitely assured me that Alexis was taking great care of our Rosie. I would 110% use her again for our future needs!”

“When I was away for a few days, Alex came help taking care of my kitties, and did a wonderful job. From the time our booking was confirmed, through the days I was traveling, she provided great communications, and sent updates after every visit. Alex took great care of my kitties and I am very appreciative of her. I highly recommend her services!”


“Abhilash was reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of our three cats, including a new 7-month-old kitten on his first time alone! Even with some kitten mischief, he handled everything patiently and kept us updated throughout. We came home to happy pets and a clean, well-cared-for home. We felt completely at ease knowing our trio were in good hands and will definitely book with him again. Highly recommend!”

“Maria took excellent care of our cat for a week, 2 visits a day. She was there like clockwork - and sent us photos, which we loved. I appreciated how communicative she was, especially with a snowstorm coming. Would 100 % use her again.”

“Thandi went above and beyond to make my orange tabby’s stay with her an amazing one! She cared for him like he was her own. She loves animals so much and provided incredible care to my baby. I trust her completely and will absolutely be using her as a sitter again. She is so kind and accommodating! She sent videos and pictures and updated me throughout each day. I am so glad I found her to watch my cat! Thank you Thandi!! :)”


“Jacqueline is a great pet sitter! Very reliable, kind and sends the funniest check-in pics of my cat (lol). Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“I honestly love your visits and from the start I could see that Fumacinha remembered you and was comfortable. Thank you for taking the time to walk him in the visit and be so kind to him. It makes a difference and I always feel at ease even traveling. Thank you”


“Andrea was great! She seemed comfortable to be at my place and with my 2 cats which is what I was hoping for! She is kind, caring and enthusiastic! Would absolutely use for future needs and would recommend to anyone needing pet care!”

About: I have a deep appreciation for animals, which stems from growing up with various pets. I've had dogs and cats I trained and cared for since they were puppies or kittens. Even had a pair of parrots, turtles, and a snake! My genuine respect for animals is why friends and family continue to trust in my enthusiasm to extend reliable and loving care to their little ones. I hope to provide you with the same peace of mind that your pawed bestie will receive a happy and nurturing experience. **Please note: I am not offering pet boarding at my home. I will go to your home for Drop-In Visits or House Sitting (no overnights). I have found it's less stressful for your little one(s) if they are in a familiar environment. I currently work part-time with flexible hours, so I can be free to meet your pet's schedule! With advanced notice, I can try to accommodate any schedule. I want to carefully learn your pet(s) routine so I can provide a similar environment for them. I know it can be nerve wracking leaving them behind, so I'll make sure you receive updates from your bestie!
About: I use to work at a Doggie Hotel. I worked in the kennel area and use to manage the cleaning as well as the food distribution for every dog in the facility. I love taking care of my neighbors pets while they are away for vacation. I'm very hands on when it comes to puppies and training, I've done similar things at my last job as a kennel worker/day care dog counselor. I own 2 bearded dragon and take care of my parents dog from time to time! I make sure to give them special attention everyday. I make sure that each animal gets love and attention every hour of the day! I make sure that they have eaten, and if not I try to encourage, and make sure they are mentally stimulated with some play time! I also like to incorporate exercise when playing!
“Doris was great! Very professional and experienced, and kept us updated throughout her check-in/walk. We felt very comfortable having Olive in her care, and we look forward to her looking after Olive again in the future!”

About: Though I have never had a cat on my own, I have lived with one for the past three years and it has been very enjoyable for me. Aside from this, I do have experience with petsitting cats of different temperaments. I’ve worked with incredibly cuddly cats as well as ones who dislike attention, and I believe that I could support your cat according to their individual needs. I can do wet or dry food and well as litter box cleanings! I also have experience working with various exotic and unpredictable animals like snakes, lizards, chinchillas, and more from my nature center summer job. I am always willing to learn about your pet’s individual needs! **a special note about outdoor cats. I do not have much experience with them, so please inform me of any protocols needed.

About: Professional Pet Spoiler, At Your Service 🐾 I am a pet lover with 10+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs and routine. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play, prefers a quiet cuddle, or needs a little extra patience and care, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel safe and comfortable. Your pet’s well-being, happiness, and safety are always my top priorities. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and give them plenty of love and attention while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️

“Diana was great and so patient with my dog. My dog was very nervous and didn't want to go with her but she was so kind and loving, she went with her. She spent the whole day with her and kept me updated throughout the day. I would highly recommend her. In fact, my dog is going back two more days this week to Diana.”

“Catherine was fantastic with Achilles! He had a great day and came home happy and relaxed. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches. I would definitely book again!”

“Simone & Sean K were terrific! Kind, attentive to our dog's sensitivities and took great care of her. She had a great day with them. We highly recommend them and will definitely be booking future dates.”


“Jennifer and James created a loving home for Winston during his stay. They sent regular photo and text updates that let us know that our guy was safe, cared for, and happy. When we picked him up it was clear how much they adored him. They also went above and beyond to accommodate his puppy energy. We recommend them to any dog owner.”

“Lorenzo is a top notch caregiver for your furry kid. He watched Duke 3 days in a row while I worked. Everyday when I picked Duke up he was happy and tired from all the fun he had. If your looking for quality care, I highly recommend Lorenzo!”

“Ashley looked after our cat as a last-minute request. She made sure our cat was separate from any dogs, she was fed, and had attention from her kids! Glory was well looked after during her stay with Ashley. She also sent me photos and updates occasionally during the day which was great!”


“Had a great doggy daycare visit with Laura this week! Her attention to detail and genuine love of dogs is what has us coming back again. I loved her desire to really get to know my dog and make accommodation for Lola's little quirks and upside-down scheduling. Thanks Laura (and Chris too) for giving us a new safe haven for Lola!!”

“Amazing woman! I hate leaving my dog with sitters but Thandi makes me feel like my dog is literally with family because of how much she cares. I get updates which I appreciate and see how happy my very usually nervous pup is when he’s with her. Definitely recommend her as #1 to anyone looking for animal care.”

“Yuri took on my request last-minute. She watched my cat during the daytime at her home while construction work was being done at mine. She is friendly, communicative, and took good care of my kitty!”

“First time booking Tracy and Kamila. Couldn’t have asked for a better service. Our 2 year old Chiweenie was kept busy outdoors most of the day and went on a long walk in the nearby woods. He was tuckered out by the time we picked him up which tells us he had a great day of action and exploration. Additionally, while he was clearly apprehensive when we dropped him off being in a new environment with new people and dogs, he clearly became comfortable as part of the pack and followed Kamila closely when we arrived to pick him up which showcased her ability to establish trust. Tracy provided many updates with photos and ensured all parties were in the know on the status of Vini and the care required. It’s clear that both Tracy and Kamila are experienced dog owners and have an ideal property to entertain dogs of any size, and a few at a time. Highly recommend if you’re considering booking their service.”

“Our dog Matcha seemed to love her stay with Tatiana! She had plenty of other dogs to spend time with and not worry about how she wasn't at home. If you have a furry friend that doesn't like being home alone for extended hours, I'd recommend Tatiana.”

About: I have over 20 years of experience taking care of dogs. I have owned dogs for the past 16 years straight, the last 10 years with two dogs. I have a lot of experience with all types of dogs (from chihuahua to Great Dane) and connect easily with them. After all, I am a dog myself (per the Chinese Zodiac!) Currently I have two rescue dogs: A special needs (epilepsy) Healer/Aussie Shepherd mix named Ace and a senior Supermutt named Maisie. We lost our senior Boston Terrier in early 2023 due to Cushings and Cancer. So, I have experience taking care of dogs from puppy through hospice. Medications and special food needs are no problem. NOTE: As I have two dogs of my own.....if your dog is not well socialized and does not get along with all other dogs, big and small, or has a history of aggressive behavior, please do not put in a "Boarding" booking request. Socialized, friendly dogs only, please. No excessive whiners or barkers and dogs must weigh 35 lbs or less. Thank you! Reliable, Responsible, Mature. I'm currently retired so am able to spend all of my time caring for my animals (and yours). The most i'll ever leave the house for is 2-3 hours for an appointment, but this is rare. We start our days with breakfast at 7am, take a morning hike in the woods or trails or town. Then some relax time at home before lunch and a 1pm neighborhood walk. Then more home time and play or naps until our 4pm hike. Then dinner at 5. All meal times adjustable for your dog's needs. I am able to be home 99% of the time so am always able to focus on the pets needs. I have been an animal lover my whole life and care deeply about the health and well being of animals in my care or under my stewardship. We live close to many hiking trails and nature preserves so the dogs always get plenty of sniff walks and exercise and socialization. Always on leash and always careful of meeting unknown dogs that may be receptive. I'm pretty good at sussing out a dog's behavior signals, if we should meet or not, after so many years.
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was six years old, growing up with pets back home in Guatemala. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs—big, small, playful, and shy—and I’ve gained experience with everything from daily walks to giving medication. I currently don’t have pets of my own, which means I can give your dog my full attention. You can expect lots of walks, playtime, love, and regular photo and video updates. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment and I’m home all the time, so overnight care is never a problem. I’m here to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home! I work part-time in the mornings and am free the rest of the day, and I’m available to board your dog anytime that works for you. Since I work nearby, I can easily accommodate your schedule for drop-offs and pick-ups. I spend most of my time at home, giving plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks—it’s a great way for them to get exercise and have fun. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I love being active with animals and making sure they feel happy and loved all day long. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My home is free of harmful plants and other hazards, I always keep the space clean and comfortable. I have a big yard where I can walk and play with your dog throughout the day, giving them plenty of exercise and attention. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs so they feel right at home. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I’m happy to follow any routines that help them feel secure. I know trust matters, so I always keep pet parents updated with photos, videos, and clear communication.
“Rafaelina is an amazing sitter! Our dog Riley seemed to really enjoy her time there, and we loved all the photos and updates during her stay. Rafaelina is responsive and very helpful. We’re looking forward to Rafaelina being a recurring sitter for our dog! Highly recommend!”

“Valerie took great care of my pup! I appreciated that she was flexible and available for an initial meet and greet. During the care, she sent plenty of updates - photos, videos and was responsive to messages.”

“Jocelyn took lovely care of our two dogs for a day while we went into the city - she sent plenty of pics of them having fun and they came home tired and happy :) drop off and pick up was also super easy!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 17 years. Besides raising my own dogs, I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs for stays ranging from one week to two months. My Goldendoodle loves making new dog friends, and many of our guests have become his best buddies. I work from home most of the week, so I have plenty of time to care for dogs throughout the day. They get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention, and are rarely left alone. I have fenced yard where my dog loves to play fetch. I usually let my dog out around 8am to play until 9am. All the dogs are welcome to join to play together!

“Thandi’s visits are always above and beyond. Our dog adores her and we do too! We are super thankful to have Thandi in our circle to help care for our dog when we need it.”

“Sophie is incredibly friendly and kind. She greeted our large, silly dog warmly. Skylah had a wonderful walk with Sophie. We’re thrilled to have her take care of our furbaby!”

“Michael is amazing with my golden boy Zuppa. I always know Z is safe in happy in his hands.. additionally, he is a great communicator and very accommodating. I will definitely be a return customer. Highly recommend!”


“Abhilash always takes good care of my dog. I can tell she enjoys it a lot, and he also always takes pictures, and I really like seeing her enjoying the walk in the pictures!”

About: I love all types of animals all shapes and sizes and welcome them into my home. I would be honored to have your pet in my care and would treat them as if they were my own. I would provide them with anything they needed and any type of service. I would never mistreat any living thing. I am able to care for animals with any type of special needs or if they need to be given any type of medication. I have a very flexible schedule, so if you needed me on very short notice, I would be there without a doubt. I really hope to be taken into consideration when a family needs their pet to be taken care of. I would be a great choice for your dog! 😊 Also, FYI, the prices on my profile can be negotiated, those were just the default settings so I left them as they were, let me know if you want to discuss different prices, I will be totally fine with that! I currently work at a Doggy Daycare/Pet Hotel so I am very used to being around pets of all shapes and sizes! My usual day consists of picking up after all the dogs, making their food feeding them. And of course, playing with them! my favorite part of my job is when it’s camp time for me and the dogs! I hang out with them in a playroom and we have so much fun that they’re so tired by the end of the day! I have a large, fenced yard with plenty of room for your pet to run around as much as they want! I also have a small cat and a pug. My pug is very friendly and will welcome your doggy with open paws 🥰
“Bella is wonderful. Not only is she great with my dog (and I'm sure everyone else's) she has her own dogs and cat....so she really understands how pet parents feel. The minute she met my dog, she came into my house, and started brushing him & rubbing his ears...you should have seen his FACE - He nearly fell asleep, lol. She definitely loves animals and she gets it. If she offered boarding/daycare, I'd totally trust her with my dog and I am VERY protective of my dog bc daycares in Riverdale allowed him to be attacked and harmed. She is careful and she actually cares.”
“Lorenzo did an amazing job walking our baby! Latte doesn’t need much: just a little walk to pee and poop and then he’s ready to head back in. He did just that and it was a great help as I work a hybrid schedule so I’m unable to walk Latte when I’m in office. Having someone come over while we’re out of the house and tend to our baby’s schedule is just something we need, especially with such a trustworthy dog handler! Latte was very amicable with Lorenzo, so this is definitely a great start to something new.”


“Saiad was great with Bella today. She was very shy at first but he waited until she was comfortable and was able to take her for a nice walk. Definitely will be rebooking! Thank you!!!”

About: My name is Robert and I absolutely love dogs in every way. I have had dogs my whole life and know how to care for different breeds with wide variety of behaviors and needs. Dogs are just as much family as anyone else and deserve to be treated that way. I’m based in beautiful Hartsdale, NY, just steps away from a large park that’s perfect for walks and playtime. I have a fully fenced-in yard, providing a safe and fun space for dogs to roam freely and get plenty of fresh air. I also partner with two other experienced Rover sitters, which means your pet will always have round-the-clock care and attention — 24/7! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine — I have open availability throughout the week, so I’m always ready to provide walks, playtime, feedings, and overnight care as needed.. I live in a house with a nice big fenced in backyard and I also have a very large dog kennel that can be used if needed. Plenty of room to run around.
About: Hi all! My name is Lily, and I am finishing up a marine studies degree with an anthropology minor. The things I love the most in the world are animals and children. Most of my previous jobs have been babysitting as well as house and petsitting. For petsitting, I had stayed the night with cats and dogs, just stopped in for feedings, litter box changes, walks, and anything else that could be needed! I have also worked five summers as a camp counselor. After two summers at a regular camp, I got hired to work as a counselor at a nature center near my home town. Here I learned husbandry skills and behaviors of creatures from ferrets, to sulcata tortoises and lizards, to chickens and goats. I am currently an online student and I have asynchronous classes. I have a lot of availability during the week and weekends. I’m sure I will have the time to help out your pets! As of now I am living at home with family. I have boarded friends’ dogs and rabbits before, but I do prefer housesitting or house visits. Our home is currently pet free though, so if boarding is your preferred option please contact me and maybe we can work it out!
About: I have two dogs and have dog sat and walked many times before. I love to go to the waterfront with my dog and take long walks! I am first aid certified in humans and dogs. i hope you plan to book me ! Ps I also work at an emergency vet! I currently work full-time at one vet office . I know all the basics of dog struggling and such but I love to take long walks. I work at an and a primary veterinarian and understand dog behavior. Safety is the number one priority for me. Never let them be off leash

About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable, and animal-loving pet sitter with hands-on experience in veterinary and animal care settings. As a pre-vet student, I’ve developed strong skills in animal handling, observation, and compassionate care through clinical and research environments. I worked as a veterinary assistant at Cornell University Specialists, where I gained experience working alongside veterinary professionals and strengthened my understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I also have a 11-year-old cockatiel and two cats of my own, so I truly understand the daily care, attention, and trust it takes to look after someone’s pets. I prioritize patience, attentiveness, and routine, making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or special care needs, I treat every animal like my own! I am also BLS and ALS CPR certified I am flexible and available throughout the week for dog sitting and house sitting. I am happy to help with daily visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I do not offer overnight stays, but I am reliable and willing to help wherever needed during the day. I provide attentive in-home pet care focused on safety, comfort, and routine consistency. I make sure pets are always in a secure environment—checking doors, gates, food access, and removing any hazards. I closely follow owner instructions for feeding, medications, and behavior routines to keep pets stable and stress-free in their home setting. With my basic medical knowledge from animal care experience, I am comfortable recognizing early signs of illness or distress (such as changes in appetite, vomiting, coughing, or lethargy) and responding appropriately by notifying the owner promptly and seeking guidance when needed. My goal is to ensure pets feel safe, cared for, and as close to their normal routine as possible while their owners are away
About: I know your dog is more than just a pet—they're family. That's why I'm committed to providing the same level of care, patience, and attention that I'd want someone to give my own. Who Am I As a long-time pet owner, I understand that caring for a dog goes far beyond providing food, water, and exercise. Dogs thrive on structure, purpose, consistency, and companionship, and I believe these qualities are essential to their overall well-being. My goal is to provide more than just a walk. I strive to make every visit a positive experience by giving your dog the attention, consistent care, and mental stimulation they deserve while you're away. My hope is that your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you enjoy the peace of mind of knowing they're in good hands. How I Got Started My passion for caring for dogs began by helping neighbors and family members with their pets. I later had the opportunity to work for a private pet walking company, where I learned more about professional pet care, punctuality, and the importance of building trust with both dogs and their owners. That experience strengthened my commitment to providing dependable and compassionate care. What Can Clients Expect My goal is simple—to provide your dog with a safe, enjoyable, and positive experience every time I visit. I strive to build trust with every dog through patience, consistency, and genuine care. My hope is to become someone both you and your dog can rely on, while being a positive addition to your dog's quality of life. Thank you for considering me as your dog walker. I look forward to meeting you and your dog very soon! Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I maintain a flexible schedule so I can accommodate weekday, weekend, and last-minute requests whenever possible. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I follow your instructions closely, maintain a safe environment, and make sure your dog feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you're away. My priority is earning your trust by providing dependable and compassionate care.
About: My parents got me my first dog Tokyo, when I was 9 , a beautiful short-haired black and brown mutt and I've been dog-crazy ever since. I recently moved to New York leaving my 10-year-old Great Dane, Maxine, with my parents, which breaks my heart . I mostly work from home, so I absolutely jumped at this opportunity to walk and look after other people's dogs. From dogs that are larger than life, and drag you from place to place (like my own), to the smallest and petite of canines (my sister had a Maltese terrier), I have a life-time of experience . I'm really feeling the absence of my friend and will happily take your dog for some fresh air. I'm an artist, I work from home, so I am fully flexible. I write at night as that's when I'm most inspired so I'd love to use to my days to do something I love. I have a lot of experience with larger dogs, I can crate them, walk them and give them their medication. When it comes to cats, I let them do their thing and give them attention should they ask.

“Robert did a great job with our pups! He took them on lots of adventures, gave them plenty of opportunity to play outside in the yard, and kept us updated with pictures, etc. Also, he was so kind and flexible when our flight back home got delayed! We will definitely be using him again when we go out of town.”

“We were worried that our Laima would have a hard time with separation anxiety, (first time away from us in the 2 yrs since we rescued her) but Rene and her pups made her feel right at home. The pictures she posted spoke volume on how well Laima enjoyed her stay! We hope to use Rene again soon!”

“Doreen was absolutely wonderful. We were very nervous to leave Chloe, but she had access to the bed (we let her sleep with us), the backyard, the run of the home and endless cuddles from Doreen. We left a piece of our heart with her for two weeks and she kept us updated everyday with videos and pictures and letting us know that Chloe was eating well and loved the other dogs she was with. Chloe is 12 and stopped playing with toys years ago, at Doreens she decided to play with toys again. It was so heartwarming to see, we will be using Doreen for all our petsitting needs with Chloe.”

“Charmaine is great!! Friendly, professional, great communication. Our 10-yr old chihuahua mix was in good hands and we received daily updates and photos, which were much appreciated!!! Thanks Charmaine!!!”

“I have encountered a lot of dog lovers but not like Will! My dog fit in perfectly, and honestly I loved that! I will definitely use Will services again, and even recommend a few of my friends that have dogs. If you looking for a Nanny that is a 10/10 , Will is your person .”


“Saiad was a trustworthy and reliable sitter during Max's stay. Max can be an insecure dog, but Saiad made sure he felt comfortable and well cared for throughout his visit. He followed all of our instructions, accommodated a meet-and-greet beforehand, and made sure Max had a great time playing fetch and enjoying his stay. Would love to book with him again!”

“Alexis was amazing and she was so thoughtful to send us videos during our time away from our pup, Rosie! The fact that she would be the one reaching out to us during our vacation definitely assured me that Alexis was taking great care of our Rosie. I would 110% use her again for our future needs!”


“Kiara was amazing with our golden retriever Kona. She sent videos and updates every day from their walks and playtime in her large fenced in yard. Kiara’s policy of dog sitting only one at a time ensured he had love and attention. He came back relaxed and happy, not stressed out at all. Kiara herself is warm and friendly, interested in hearing about all your dog’s foibles, and obviously a calming presence to dogs. We are absolutely going to use her again!”

“Biscuit enjoyed her time. I as at ease leaving my little girl with Thandi. Posted/updated me with pictures and just on things. Biscuit fell in love with her. I will definitely use her again.”

“This was an amazing experience! Our dog Max is very hyper and loves the attention of people. Lorezno assured he would take good care of our pup. While Max does enjoy playing with other dogs its great knowing Lorenzo only boards one dog at a time. Pictures were provided of the boarding space as well as daily updates. Great environment for boarding as well as a lovely neighborhood”

“Our dog had a great stay with Noelle over the holidays. She clearly has an excellent way with dogs because our slightly nervous pooch seemed to feel at home right away, even with other dogs in the house (which she was not used to). We received regular updates with photos from Noelle and we felt very reassured that our dog was in very good hands. We would recommend Noelle!”

“Stephanie was fantastic! Super easy to work with and was very communicative. She was kind enough to bathe our dog sunny after they went outside and had some tics. Sunny seemed to have a very good time and loved Stephanie 😊”

“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”

“Yuri took amazing care of Jolie while she was sitting for her. She sent me pictures daily and updates about her well being and any concerns she had. I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much Yuri!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs my whole life and they all have good experiences and they are very comfortable with me. I love dogs Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I have my own dog, Ziggy, and I’ve had my service dog, Eclipse, for two years. Living with and caring for dogs every day has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand each dog’s unique needs. As I prepare for college, I have a flexible schedule and look forward to providing dependable, loving care for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As the owner of Ziggy and my service dog, Eclipse, I’ve learned how important routine, patience, and positive care are. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, provide lots of walks, playtime, and attention, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: With 5 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I’m dedicated to helping dogs become confident, well mannered companions. I also hold a degree in K9 Training and Management from SUNY Cobleskill giving me both the practical experience and professional education to provide structured, effective, and personalized care. Pet care is a part of my everyday life. Outside of work, I continue to dedicate my time to dog training and boarding. I am completely available Friday and Saturday and am available every other day after 6pm! Because I have a supportive family that helps with my boarding program, each dog is consistently taken outside for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air throughout the day. Dogs staying in my home have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go out for potty breaks, exercise, and supervised play. Inside, I have a finished basement that provides a clean, comfortable, and climate-controlled space for dogs to relax, train, and rest. Every dog follows a structured routine that includes regular outdoor breaks, feeding according to the owner’s schedule, enrichment, and plenty of individual attention. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where every dog feels at home.
