“Delmy and her daughter were so kind and just wonderful with my elder pup, Jake. Their home was warm, welcoming and super tidy. They provided daily photos and updates which were much appreciated. I would absolutely recommend booking Delmy and look forward to using her again. :)”


“It has taken me over a week to be able to write this review & express my gratitude for Denise. She watched my senior dog & the unimaginable happened. She was with coco during her last hours & cared for her like she was her own. I would have never left had I thought this would happen, but I am so thankful that Coco enjoyed her last days with Denise & her daughter. I feel so guilty & horrible that her family had to endure this & yet she did her best to comfort me. There are no words to express how grateful I am for Denise & her compassion.”
“Jillian is excellent, caring, thoughtful, and understanding!! Our pets truly loved being part of her family, and came home just as they left, and in good spirits!! We're very grateful to have found someone like Jillian for our furbabies!!”

“Veronique and Johnathan took very good care of our dog Kulfi. Kulfi loves to be with other dogs loves to be out in the yard. She had a great time. Their dogs got along well and Kulfi was at home over the 11 days stay. She wasn’t tired or cranky or stressed when we brought her back home as was the case with a couple other boarders. Thank you Veronique and Johnathan for taking great care of our baby!”

“We are thrilled with our experience with John! This was our first time using this site, and he was amazing with our Benny. He kept us updated with pictures and videos, which made us feel at ease. Having his dog Dallas around was a definitely bonus. Thank you, John! We would love to work with you again and highly recommend you!”

“Vish was great! She took excellent care of my dog Brooklyn and was very responsive and communicative. She sent plenty of updates and photos and Brooklyn was well cared for and happy! Will absolutely reach out to her the next time I need a dog sitter.”

“Tammy was a great sitter for our Lennon. She and her family took great care of him. We received daily updates with photos. Lennon had a great time while in her care. We will definitely use Tammy again when we need a sitter.”


“Dan and Denise are simply the best! We never had one worry while on vacation leaving our pups with them! They sent us daily videos and picture updates of our dogs having a great time enjoying themselves and being well taken care of! Our fur kids take medication daily and have dietary needs and allergies and they were completely on top of it! Our dogs loved interacting with the other pups that were on their puppy vacations too and they came home tired from all of the fun they had! HIGHLY recommend and would never hire anyone else for our babies!”

“Amazing family home, Diana and Mike are perfect sitters and the peace of mind they provided with the constant pics and updates truly made my trip that much better. Highly recommend!”

“Jamie did amazing while I was away, I was so right to trust her, she sent me picture anytime I asked. It was my first time leaving my puppy with a doggy sitter and I made an excellent choice choosing Jamie! I will be back most definitely.”

“Sara was very good about replying to our texts prior to meeting her and also while our dogs were staying with her. We received daily updates and photos which was very comforting to us being away on a trip. The dogs certainly enjoyed their stay and the loving attention they got during their stay. They also had lots of exercise and playtime. Our dogs also got along well with Sara's dog, Phil. It's wonderful to have found a responsible and reliable dog sitter in Sara.”

“Trinity was outstanding in every way. Trinity calmed my fears both before and during the drop-off because I was anxious about leaving my fur-baby with a new person. She also gave useful advice that was fantastic. I'm looking forward to making future travel reservations with Trinity.”

“Vanessa was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter for our dog, Candy. She was kind, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took the time to understand Candy’s routine, personality, and needs, which gave us so much peace of mind. While we were away, Vanessa kept us updated daily with videos and pictures. Our kids were so excited every day to receive them, it really made the time apart so much easier and more enjoyable for the whole family. It was clear Candy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Vanessa truly went above and beyond to make sure Candy felt safe and loved. We would highly recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Christina took very good care of my little Yorkie while we went away. She updated me with photos and videos reassuring me that he was doing great! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and will be using her services again.”

“My puppies were so happy to stay with Elaina, and her family. I have a senior dog and a great dane puppy. They were right at home from the initial meet n greet. As soon a I let them off the leash to see if they'd be comfortable, they were doing zoomies in their super big fenced in yard. Elaina's family were all friendly, and communicative throughout the entire stay. I hope Elaina will always available every time I need a sitter because her and her family are my go to's. Highly recommend”


“Kerri has been the best sitter for our Tiller! With photos everyday while we were gone and easing my nerves along the way that he was having the BEST time with her dogs in the snow and also playing inside, We would definitely use her again!”

We had such a wonderful experience with Brenda watching Beaux! She was incredibly communicative and sent daily updates and videos/photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell how knowledgeable and experienced she is with dogs, and most importantly, how much genuine love and attention she gives them. Beaux was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She even kindly kept him an additional night for us because our travel plan changed and we appreciated that so much. We would absolutely trust her with Beaux again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and flexible sitter!

Natalia went above and beyond, and I could not ask for a more caring and generous home to place my dog in while I was away. She sent near-daily updates with photos and videos and embraced every one of my loud but sweet corgi's quirks with care. Natalia, her dog and her household took care of my dog Athena and loved her truly as if she were their own. I think Athena might have even had a better vacation than me with all the snuggles, toys and fun she had! I cannot recommend or thank Natalia enough for the experiences and care she gave my dog.

Jamie is absolutely amazing!! She was an excellent care taker for our dog.. making sure to keep his meds on schedule... getting him to eat on a schedule when he normally doesnt (he's a grazer!) and allowing him priority position with her on the couch during the few moments of rest they both had. I got a regular stream of photos and check ins about my dog and never had a doubt he was in great hands. The only doubt I had was whether my dog was going to want to come home. She is so great with dogs and I know for sure we will be using her again in the future. Thank you for everything Jamie!!

We are thrilled with our experience with John! This was our first time using this site, and he was amazing with our Benny. He kept us updated with pictures and videos, which made us feel at ease. Having his dog Dallas around was a definitely bonus. Thank you, John! We would love to work with you again and highly recommend you!

Trinity is amazing! I had never left my 6 month old puppy before and was very anxious about it, but Trinity gave me the utmost peace of mind which allowed me to enjoy my vacation. Trinity was extremely communicative, sharing photos and updates daily. Percy was incredibly well taken care of. Puppies are not easy at all but Percy was treated with so much patience and care l. Trinity demonstrated a tremendous amount of professionalism and expertise in his care and I could not recommend her enough!

My fur baby was well taken care of. I cant thank Daniel enough for the awesome service that has been provided. It was top notch! Very professional and kept me updated every day about my fur baby. I felt comfortable and will definitely use his services again. Thank you 😊

Jillian was absolutely wonderful with our 7-month-old puppy! This was his first time being watched by someone outside our family, and she made the experience so easy and reassuring. She kept him active, happy, and well cared for, and communicated with us daily with pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. It was clear our pup was in great hands. We will definitely be asking Jillian to watch him again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dogsitter!

We left our pup with Debra for his first boarding experience, and I could not be more relieved. I was super anxious, especially since he was dealing with an ear infection, and we were in town for a wedding with no other option. Debra immediately put my mind at ease. She and her family were so kind and kept me in the loop with updates and photos. It was clear she understood his special needs and made sure he was comfy and safe the whole time. I loved getting the regular updates—felt like he was in great hands. By the time we got home, he seemed happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, warm, and communicative person to care for your dog, Debra is awesome. Highly recommend!

The best Dog sitter we’ve ever had! Not only christina but everyone in her house took such good care of our two pitbull mixes. They ran around and had fun all day and were nice and exhausted for our five hour car ride home. The next time we come to Long Island, we will absolutely call upon her again! THANK YOU, CHRISTINA!
