“My dog Ariel had a very good stay at Mike’s. She is usually scared of men and prone to separation anxiety. She felt right at home with Mike! Communication with him was easy, his home is great to host and the neighborhood seems safe for dog walks. I would trust him with my precious companion again!”

“As always these gentlemen have spoiled my cat absolutely rotten! Even pulled out their own personal heating blanket for her to use.(She’s a hairless cat and gets chilly easily.) They are extremely accommodating to my last minute plans and just in general an absolute pleasure to work with! Even did some minor wound care and she looks almost completely healed! These guys are the best!”

“Doug kept up with sharing pics and texts with me during my pups stay. The updates kept me from all worries I might of had. Doug seemed to figure out our dog’s play style, and shared with us new tricks Akira and him were doing. It sounded like they really had a fun time. Plus our dog got to meet new friends, go on lots of walks, and had a good amount of attention and treats.”

“Finding Elaine to watch my dog while I traveled out of town for a number of days was the best thing that could have happened to give me peace of mind. I hadn’t left my dog for such a long period of time before and was nervous about doing so. However, after meeting Elaine in person and visiting the home my dog would be staying in I felt good about him being in great hands. I was right! Elaine took such great care of my dog and sent numerous pictures along with exciting story-like updates about how his stay was going. I will definitely keep coming back to Elaine in the future.”

“Patricia always does a great job taking care of my doggies. One of my dogs in particular is pretty emotionally sensitive, but seems to have a good time at Patricia's and always appears relaxed and happy in the pictures and videos Patricia sends. Patricia has also been able and willing to administer medicine and feed according to specific instructions. She was very flexible with us picking up the dogs later than anticipated after flight delays. Very happy we've found such a great sitter for our beloved dogs. She makes this part of traveling so much easier on me!”

Geneva always takes amazing care of my dog, Zelee. Geneva is always attentive to her needs and sends me lots of photos, videos and updates while I’m away, which makes me feel so comfortable and at ease when I leave Zelee. Geneva does a great job managing Zelee and also balancing taking care of multiple dogs at the same time.

Hossanna was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Azula. From the start, she was so accommodating and kind, and she even met with us for two walks before Azula’s stay, which made a huge difference in helping us feel comfortable. I have very detailed (and sometimes neurotic) instructions when it comes to my dog, and Hossanna never once made me feel bad about that. She was patient, understanding, and clearly cared about doing things right for Azula. She sent us many thoughtful photos throughout the stay, and it was obvious Azula was comfortable, happy, and safe in her care. If she would have us again, I would absolutely book with her, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust.

I had a great first experience boarding my dog, Ellie, with Devta for a 6-day span of time. From the first meet-up in introducing Ellie to Devta and Olive, Devta was able to create strong space for me to ask any questions that I had. She was communicative and was interested in learning about Ellie and her nuances, commands and tricks, schedule and routine, etc. During the stay, Devta sent consistent pics and updates on how Ellie was doing and was attentive to her behavior and vibe, how she was adjusting, how she was interacting with other dogs, etc.. When I ran into issues with my travel/flights, Devta was flexible and was able and willing to watch Ellie for another evening which was greatly appreciated. Ellie's transition home was incredibly smooth after her almost week-long stay, which was a tell-tale sign she did really well with Devta. Would very much recommend for boarding!
