Who’s watching your pet?

Roni Shapiro

Who I am….

My name is Roni Shapiro and I’m the retired owner of Healthy Gourmet To-Go.  
I spent 30 years focused on my life’s work rooted in compassion, intention, and excellence—keeping animals off peoples’ plates through a highly regarded vegan café and meal delivery company in Saugerties, NY.  

I am transferring that same philosophy into a deeply personal offering.  Sit Boo-Boo is my new company and I’m providing exceptional, one-on-one care for gentle, affectionate, well-socialized dogs (and cats) in my serene home in the woods just outside Woodstock, NY.  

Care is intentionally limited, calm and individualized, with daily adventures at each dog’s own pace, along with professional-style photos and thoughtful text updates that keep clients closely connected throughout each stay.  It’s a luxury Air BnB for your precious pup (or cat).

Inquiries are welcome from those seeking a high-end, peaceful, relationship-based alternative to traditional boarding.

I look forward to setting up a Complimentary Meet n’ Greet with you and your beloved companion animal soon,

Me With a Few Furry Clients


And what mama can resist showing off her baby girl? See photos below.

This is Ariel, my rescued donkey daughter, who I adopted and co-parent with her wonderful baby-daddy and dear friend, John. Ariel was bought and saved from slaughter at a kill auction by a wonderful equine sanctuary, Peaceful Acres Horses, run by Nanci Beryl.  Ariel lives in Saugerties with another donkey and is the light of my life.  She is fond of pups, so sometimes I’ll bring willing guests to visit her.

There is almost nothing more beautiful than witnessing a rescued from slaughter animal, enjoying peace and safety forever more.
May all beings everywhere be happy and free. ♥️ Roni
