Jerry and Michelle are so great! From viewing their profile and reviews, I knew our dogs would be in great hands while we were out of town. Communication was smooth and reliable throughout the whole process, from the initial zoom to when we made it back to our respective homes. During the house tour on the first day of the visit, we were very comfortable and got along great. We received photos of the pups each day, usually with funny captions and usually with the dogs under their blankets. The house was super tidy when we got back, and we appreciated the fresh sheets after our 9-hour drive home. We would not hesitate to have Jerry and Michelle come back again - hopefully with nicer weather next time!

Responsible and Caring
Aliza and Ric are repeat house- and pet-sitters for us. They are great, totally reliable and very pro-active in terms of sending photos etc. of Alice. We had to leave the house before they arrived this last time, and they had to leave before we returned,but we had no qualms about them doing a great job.

Rebecca
Latham, New York
Digital Nomad w/ 10+ Years House-Sitting Experience
Rebecca is very sweet and incredibly considerate. We had a nice long zoom call before confirming the sit and she was easy to talk to. At the time I had two kitties and one was very ill. Rebecca asked thoughtful questions and had so much experience that my stress and anxiety were alleviated; I was grateful to have found her and felt completely comfortable entrusting my kitties and little piece of paradise to her. Unfortunately my Fizzy Fitzy's health deteriorated and he didn't make it. I let Rebecca know before the sit that it would be only one kitty and that he would be adjusting to the loss of his "brother" and companion and might need more care and attention. She was so kind and again, I felt like the universe had sent me the right person. Rebecca and I got a chance to meet as we overlapped by an hour or two on day one; I was so glad to be able to see her in person and give her a hug before I left. I returned after about 10 days to a calm kitty (which was amazing given that he'd just lost his lifelong companion) and an immaculate apartment. Rebecca even washed the sheets and made the bed which was so beyond helpful and appreciated after a tiring trip. Rebecca sent me a long message on the last day letting me know what had been done and showing a walk-through of the home (she's very thorough, which I love), so I knew what I was coming home to down to the fruit in the fridge. Seriously, the place was immaculate! I know you're journeying on Rebecca but I would love to have you sit anytime. Thank you!
Gregg
Latham, New York
Professional Gardener & Homeowner Loves Animals Speaks French, German, Spanis...
I'm very grateful that Gregg agreed to sit for my 3 kitties on very short notice. He showed up on time, made an instantly favorable impression on my Maine Coon kitty, followed my complex feeding instructions, gave the cats plenty of play time, and left the house organized and tidy. My two younger cats are generally very skittish with males, but by Gregg's second night here they were sleeping on his bed. I would recommend Gregg without hesitation to reliably care for your home and pets.

Sunil is an excellent house-sitter. Great communication before and during the sit, with many fun photos. Sunil took great care of our cats, houseplants and home.

Retired teacher is ready to care for your home and your pets while you’re away
Dave was so great and easy to coordinate with! He was willing to come by a day early to meet us and the dogs. He was very respectful of our place and left no mess behind. He even left a very kind thank you card. He sent pictures of the dogs out on a walk and communicate often. We will definitely have Dave back anytime!
Reviews from Cat Owners
Hannah
Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Tim
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
Regina
Hannah and Joseph housesat our three kitties for a week and a half while we were traveling for the holidays. They were very communicative and conscientious. We received daily updated on our cats with cute and funny pictures. When they noticed our 17yo cat, Amber, wasn’t eating very much, they let us know and we were able to resolve the problem quickly. They were also very resourceful and understanding when we ran out of some cat supplies. Hannah and Joseph took great care of the house. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived back, and we had a short time to get to know them on our arrival. We would be fortunate to find more house sitters like them, and would of course love to have them back in the future! We wish Hannah and Joseph luck in their travels!
KOLBY
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Nina
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Tonya
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Andrew
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
Heather
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.

Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Cynthia
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!

I’ve been sending my puppy to The Little Dog Lounge for a few months now, and I couldn’t be happier! The staff is incredibly friendly and I can see how they love working with dogs. They provide great supervision, and I appreciate the updates they give me at the end of the day. The facility is always clean, and the dogs are grouped by size and temperament, which makes me feel confident about my dog’s safety. My dog comes home happy and tired, which tells me he had a fun and active day! I highly recommend The Little Dog Lounge for any dog parent looking for a reliable and fun daycare option.
I absolutely love The Little Dog Lounge. My dog has the best time there and she is very well taken care of. I have an elder dog and they’re so patient with her that I feel confident leaving her there while I go to work and my dog comes home so happy and almost with a more younger vibration and energy - I highly recommend
Maree and Ann took incredible care of our two babies. They were well loved and did extremely well being boarded there. It truly is a special place with people who.love what they do! They sent us pics and videos during their stay to calm us. I will use them exclusively from now on.
New and now forever client! Maree and her team were so kind and patient with their new client. Gus is almost 13 so switching to a new groomer was stressful for both him and myself. But they were so gentle and his haircut is adorable. Bath, haircut, and nail trim are more than affordable at this doggy salon that really goes above and beyond to give our little guy the attention and care he needs. Booked his next appt before we left! Thanks ladies!
I love the little do lounge, my little nephew Enzo goes there and he loves it. He is always happy to go there and exhausted on the way home :-). They have the best groomers and their staff is friendly and professional !!! The lounge is beautifully decorated and very stylish - looks more like an upscale country club!!! The owner Maree is fabulous and very knowledgeable!!! Highly recommend this place!!!
This place is so bad that I can't understand why anyone would leave their dog there. My poor dog got progressively worse each day I picked her up from that place. They did not act like they even like dogs. After a few days of going there, she started hiding in the morning and had to be dragged or carried in. Thinking she would adjust, I carried her in and was ordered to "put her down!" and "Now, leave!" Then they dragged her away. When I picked her up, she would sit in the car shaking, and when we got home, she would not leave my side and had to be in my lap every second. She has been in other daycare settings, and had not responded that way, and she has since been going to a daycare where she can't wait to get in the door and clearly loves and is loved by the people who care for her there. She comes home exhausted from playing all day, but she was never tired when returning from the Little Dog Lounge. I really think they kept her most of the day in a crate. And that's another red flag: WHEN I ASKED TO SEE WHERE THEY KEPT THE DOGS, I WAS TOLD THEY NEVER LET ANYONE SEE THE AREA THEY KEEP THE DOGS IN, AND NO VIDEOS OR EVEN TEXTS WERE EVER SENT OR AVAILABLE FROM THEM. Every other daycare I visited wanted to show me the area the dogs stayed in. This place is not a good place for dogs. I had paid in advance and did not get a refund but did not think it too much of a loss to keep her out of that place.
There used to be a lovely woman who worked here and our interactions made me feel I was leaving me dog in a good place. There were a couple other workers who didn't seem like the liked dogs at all, but my primary interaction was with the one very nice woman. Our oldest child died of cancer last year, and she was very flexible with us helping us to get boarding when we needed it during a time when my daughter was being treated in NYC, and I still do have a lot of appreciation for her flexibilty. We had random friends and neighbors dropping off our dog and picking her up during the hospice days and the week after my daughter's funeral, and the business was good with that. If the woman I had the positive interactions with is the owner, she was great, and needs to take control of her business again. My dog never liked going to this place, but we have not boarded her anywhere else so it could be that she doesn't like us leaving her. All that being said, I called a few weeks ago to schedule a few days of boarding for my dog so we could go out of town. The person I spoke to said we needed to do another trial as it has been a while (it has been just over a year since my daughter passed/ we last boarded), and there would be no charge. I was fine with that and called a few days ago and arranged to do the trial today. My husband brought our dog mid morning (10ish) and I picked her up just before 4:00. When I arrived, I was informed immediately, and rudely, that they made a mistake and they would have to charge me. I was at first pretty measured in response and I explained that I was told there would be no charge, told a trial was necessary and that it was a big inconvenience for us to bring our dog there and pick her up. I didn't say what I was thinking, that it is absolutly bizarre and unacceptable to tell a customer one thing and then change after the fact. It is very bizarre to put any of the burden of that on the customer. The attitude back was of impatience and like I should have known better and I was told our dog didn't need a trial after all. She ultimately waved the fee and apologized, but it was an apology that sounded more like, "f-u" (we all have those relatives that say sorry but the tone of voice and attitude in no way means sorry). There was more back and forth than I would have liked (me telling her that she was incredibly rude). The entire conversation was like talking to a haughty 14 year old with a bad attitude, insisting she was apologizing while her attitude and other statements were contrary to an apology. The best she could do at one point is to justify herself was we "left our dog too long", that daycare is only four hours. I let her know no one informed us of this (they just said to drop our dog of for a trial day), so I had no way to know that. Anyway, I have canceled our booking, scrambled to book with a competitor and I'm really disappointed to lose this place as a resource. This was a real waste of my day and a negative interaction for all parties. I hope this business can turn it around. Based on my interaction today, and the other reviews I see here, I think cameras are needed at this business to monitor what is happening with dogs behind closed doors. Even if improvements are made, they are rapidly losing customer confidence.
I have referred so many of my clients to the Little Dog Lounge. Especially clients new to the area looking for a great place for their special friends. The staff at the Little Dog Lounge treats every dog like family. I highly recommend ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
BEST groomer ever!! Lucy is seriously the best ever and my dog LOVES going. He always looks fabulous after but seeing how well lucy takes care of and loves my dog seals the deal. I’ve had some pretty traumatic experiences with other groomers in the area so I am so happy to have found Lucy.
The best upscale spa for dogs staff is great my poor chihuahua finally has his eyes cleaned no one else could get this done . Owner was extremely helpful and the place was beautiful Thank you to the LDL team.
