New Yorkers scrambling to find a place to put their dogs before jet-setting now have the option to set their loved ones up with a local, pet-friendly paradise all their own.

California-based startup Dog Vacay, created by husband and wife team Aaron Hirschhorn and Karine Nissim Hirschhorn, opened shop in the city on Monday and are hoping to pair New York canines with "dog lovers, dog owners and pet-care providers" from a vetted marketplace for owners to choose from when traveling.
