“Victoria and her bf were amazing. They frequently updated me with tons of photos of my pup. I just knew she was in great hands! I really appreciated that her apartment building has a play area for dogs. Taro seemed to love it!”
2. Millie B.
“Millie was fantastic! Very responsive and sent constant updates on Alfie, I would absolutely recommend and would rebook!”
3. Irina C.
“Irina was very great about anticipating my dogs needs and very attentive and sent pictures and updates throughout the week! Very patient and friendly and asked questions”
4. Michelle S.
“Harry had the best time with Michelle! She sent tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing (he made himself right at home). He got plenty of walks and was fed and tired when we picked him up.”
5. Ryan M.
“Ryan was so great with my energetic dog and was super flexible with us booking last-minute. Our dog had a great time with Luna and Ryan even showed us some adorable pictures of the two of them together. Definitely would recommend!!”
6. Tien-Tien L.
“Tien-Tien is great with my small dog Beau! I can tell that she loves animals and always treats Beau like he’s her own. I’ve gone on several trips out of town and left my dog in her care and it’s been fabulous every time!”
7. Seth & Ashley G.
“I could only leave 5 stars but if I could leave more I would. I have used Ashley & Seth numerous times to watch my fur baby Piper. They made the whole process so easy & put me at ease. They did a meet & greet with me & Piper, send multiple photos & videos the entire time. (They even FaceTimed with me while I was in California for work with a 3 hour time difference!) I just can’t say enough about them, they’re kind, considerate & treat the pets like family. I won’t use anyone else! You are doing yourself a disservice by not booking with them!! 100/100 Recommend!”
8. Trang B.
“Bear had an excellent time staying with Trang! She sent updates every day and even got him a new toy! Communication was excellent and Bear was very happy! I would highly recommend Trang and would absolutely use her pet sitting services again.”
9. Mercis B.
“I'm delighted to share my experience with Mercis, who truly went above and beyond to ensure Sherlock felt at home. From multiple walks, playtime, and genuine care made all the difference. Thanks to the extraordinary effort and exceptional care… our dog returned happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend!”
10. Upasna A.
“We left our 11 year old maltipoo with Upasna for 3 nights, and when we picked him up I think he was sad to leave her! Given his age and some physical health conditions it’s nerve wracking to leave him with someone, but Upasna made us feel so comfortable and took such amazing care of him, taking into account all of his physical (and our emotional!) needs. We will definitely use her for all of our dog sitting needs in the future!”
11. Donna B.
“Donna did an amazing job with our dog! She updated us on how our dog was doing throughout the stay and sent pictures and videos. We’ll definitely be using her again.”
12. Colin F.
“Colin was a fantastic sitter for our Aussie for a week while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates about our pup's day with plenty of photos and was extremely willing to tailor his care for her around the routine she keeps at home with us. His two dogs are extremely sweet, gentle, and welcoming for new dogs to join their pack; it made me happy to know our pup was so thoughtfully cared for while we were gone!”
13. Elisabeth B.
“Elisabeth (and Kyle) could not have been more fantastic. My dog is shy but warmed up to her very quickly. She was responsive and conscientious, communicated perfectly. She even went out of her way to buy his preferred food when she ran out. Can’t say enough how happy I was. Thank you!”
14. Phi T.
“Phi was great! Remy really enjoyed his time with Phi and his Ammy girl! I loved receiving the updates and photos of the pups playing, taking walks, and napping together. Even though I was away, I knew Remy was well taken care of and was fully welcomed in Phi’s home. I would definitely have Remy stay with Phi again and I know that Remy would feel right at home.”
15. Ethan M.
“My dog Bru had an excellent time with Ethan and his dog Zeke. Ethan gave daily updates with photos which is nice to check in. Would use Ethan again if I need to leave Bru home.”
16. Lydia A.
“Lydia is amazing and I am so glad I was able to book a stay with her! I was very nervous about leaving my 2.5yr old, Hank, with someone new to him for the first time, but it could not have gone better, all thanks to Lydia. I could tell from the many pics she sent me while I was out of town that Hank was having a great time and he had completely fallen for her. Her regular updates were really reassuring and allowed me to focus on the purpose for my trip out of town. Lydia is just great and I hope I'll be able to board Hank with her again.”
17. Dayna C.
“I was extremely nervous about trying this site, my mom is normally my dog sitter but she and I had to go out of town and our hotel wouldn't accept them. So I did a little research and took a chance. I'm so happy that I did. Dayna is amazing! I can tell she truly loves animals and has a very kind spirit. She sent me pics the entire time I was away and reassured me very quickly that my two were ok. I chose her especially because she has dogs similar to mine, and I knew they would have a great time. I would highly recommend Dayna and her husband, Paul to anyone! Great experience and would definitely use them (and this app) again in the future to sit for my two boys!”
18. Yuchan D.
About: Hello! I'm Rita and a lover of animals. When I was 3 years old, I had my first dog in my family, so my childhood was full of memories of growing up with dogs and having fun together. Now I have 2 Shiba Inus, Umi is in my hometown with my parents and Chuu is with me and my husband here in Boston. Because of this wonderful time, I learned how to take care of dogs and make them feel happy, comfortable, and company when they need me, which is most important for our lovely and needy dogs. I am comfortable with nervous or energetic dogs and I have confidence they will open up to me quickly. My close relatives, families, and friends said that dogs all have a super comforting presence with me. I believe that I establish a bond with dogs easily and I truly am a dog whisperer. My husband and I both work from home, so we have more flexibility to accompany your loved ones. Our neighborhood is pet-friendly, and my apartment complex even has a small dog park on the 5th floor! Plus, a park nearby has two dog parks within a 5-minute walk! So, you can rest assured that your furry friends will have plenty of space to run and play. I promise to treat your pets like my own and spend quality time with them daily. Let me take care of your dogs - you won't regret it! My husband and I are both WFH, I’m currently on a flexible schedule, so I have a plenty of time hanging out with your pups! When I am entrusted with the responsibility of caring for pets either in my own home or that of my clients, I ensure that they are provided with fresh food and water at regular intervals throughout the day. Additionally, I make sure that their living area is kept clean, hygienic, and comfortable for them to live in. Apart from meeting their basic needs, I also spend quality time with them to help them feel loved and cared for. This could include playing with their favorite toys, taking them out for walks, or simply snuggling up with them for some much-needed cuddle time. If I am responsible for the care of a dog, I make sure to take them out regularly for potty breaks and exercise, so that they stay active and healthy. I understand that every pet has its own unique personality, preferences, and needs, and I strive to be attentive to their individual needs and cater to them accordingly. I understand the importance of keeping a clean and healthy environment for your furry friends. If I'm caring for a cat, for example, I make sure to clean their litter box daily to prevent any unpleasant odors or unsanitary conditions.

“Lily continues to be the best and we will continue to return to her. Our dog absolutely loves spending the night and we’d be lost without her help!”
20. Danya M.
“Danya was a fantastic host! she took great care of my pup despite short notice. I recommend her highly and hope she's available next time I need a sitter.”
