“Kathy is such a wonderfully warm person and even though my dog is used to his space and alone time, I had no reservations about leaving him with her and the other pets in her home. She sent photos so I could stay up to date, and when I was sick on returning from my trip, she was so helpful in getting my dog back home. 100% recommend :D”

“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Kim was so wonderful and helped us out in a pinch with very little notice. Bos was so well cared for and content with her and we really appreciated her frequent updates with pictures. We’ll definitely work with Kim again.”

“Greta was very kind, patient, communicative and accommodating! Lots of updates and pics throughout my dogs stay. Plenty of walks and park time. He seemed genuinely happy to be there!”

“Shuhua is such an amazing dog sitter. She treats my dog with such care and love, send me tons of pictures and updates, that I feel completely stress free when I’m traveling. My dog is in great hands!!! Maybe better hands than mine! :)”

“Guillermo is fantastic. He was attentive to our old pup and wonderfully responsive to us. He is kind and calm, and it was clear our dog felt so comfortable and content. Our dog had an upset stomach and Guillermo was gracious and amazing at taking the extra steps to give him canned food and medicine. He sent great updates and pictures, I wish I had found him sooner and look forward to having him care for our dog again.”

“Bosco loves his time with Jo & Adam. He gets excited whenever we are near their apartment and we know that means he's we'll cared for and has a great time with them.”

“Julie is the best!! I was in a tough spot with a flight delay and she was so kind and accommodating helping to drop off my dog and checked in to make sure we got back okay to take care of Willow that that night. I’m sure Willow would have loved if the flight was delayed even more so she could spend more time with Julie because her life seemed full of adventures and love all week. Huge thanks to Julie would definitely love to have her watch willow again!”

“We left our 1.5-year-old Sheltie with Betsy for a long weekend and she was fantastic! Betsy responded quickly to questions, took our notes/suggestions into account during the visit, and sent us updates/pictures throughout the visit. Our dog came home happy, sleepy, and of course healthy!”

“Gina was so amazing with our dog. He gets anxious with change and truly attached to her so quickly - it brought us so much comfort as we were away for 2 weeks. Lots of pictures, updates and managed all his meds! We are thankful for such a professional, warm and wonderful experience. Thank you Gina!! 💕”

“Elizabeth & Rodrigo always treat Gator as part of their family and I cannot express enough how much that helps my anxiety being away from him. I never worry about him knowing that he’s being loved & cared for! They always send plenty of updates and truly are the sweetest family. Gator & I are their biggest fans!!!”

“Lorena and her boyfriend watched little Lexi for the past two weekend and she had a blast! She got to play with some other dogs, go on adventures and was exhausted when I picked her up. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Isabella is amazing at taking care of Marvin and Mellow. We shared our concerns when it came to us being nervous but she gave us loads of reassurance and kept us up to date. This was our second time with her, and she was great! No complaints.”

“When our normal boarding spot filled up for the holidays, we were rushing to figure out a sitting situation for Bella. Bella can be aggressive towards other dogs, so we were hesitant to leave her with someone new, however Winn seemed like the best sitter we could have asked for. Winn responded promptly, and we set up a time to meet beforehand; the whole thing effortless. Within seconds, Bella found a tennis ball and was sitting by Winn's side for pets. Winn sent us several photos during his time watching Bella, and it was clear that she was having a great doggie vacation! We'll be sure to reach out if we ever need a sitter again!”

“Barbara’s care of Ziggy was top quality, thoughtful, professional and comforting for us because we frequently got cute update pics of our dog, and would often set up play dates with other dogs. She treated our Ziggy with much love and TLC!”

“Ilsa is a great dog sitter! She sent me tons of cute pics and videos of my dog during his stay. She lives in a great neighborhood with a yard which I know my dog loved. I would absolutely recommend her services and definitely book with her again!”

“John is the best sitter we could ask for! Our dog loves him and he spoils her with affection and lots of walks. We have now trusted him with a short trip and now a much longer trip. He provides great updates and makes us feel at ease leaving our baby. I would recommend him to any dog owner!”

“Eddy and his team took great care of my fur baby right before Christmas. They made coordinating logistics so easy and worked around my schedule, all the while putting my pup’s care at the forefront. They communicated regularly, sending me lots of photos and updates. Definitely recommend and would use this team again, thank you!!”

“Hyesoo and her family were again amazing! Extremely responsive and thorough. We are always able to enjoy ourselves without worry while she is watching over our pup. Cannot brag about her enough!!”

Elizabeth and Rodrigo were above and beyond taking care of Moose. When our return flight ended up delayed another 5 hours they were easily flexible and able to take him an extra night. We will definitely be reaching back out the next time we need dog sitting support!

Morgan was amazing! She did an excellent job of sending me pictures and giving me updates while I was away. My flight home was delayed and she was so understanding and was able to watch my dog for another night. Cannot recommend her enough and I will be booking again!!

Rowan was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind, caring, and treated Danny like he was her own for the entire 5-day stay. I really appreciated all the updates and the care she gave him. We would absolutely book with Rowan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!

This was our first time having Hannah care for our 2 dogs, Roscoe and Birdie. Hannah was great — very attentive and dogs seemed to feel at home right away. She was communicative and clearly took good care of them. Would definitely book again for future stays. Thanks, Hannah!

Julie was simply fantastic with Wesley. She let him sniff around and learn get comfortable in her apartment while I was there to make sure he was ok. Lots of photos and Infor a laugh as she she shared a Wesley story as she took him for a walk and he waited hopefully for some free pizza. I would definitely rebook.

Frank absolutely loved his stay. He got to play with other dogs, we got constant pictures throughout the stay of him. He seems comfortable and happy the entire time, and I am sure was sad to be leaving. He was picked up and dropped off at our house so it was SO easy and for a very reasonable rate. We will definitely be using Shuai again in the future when we are traveling and can't take Frank with us.

Barb was fantastic with Murphy. We were out of town for 5 days and she sent daily photos and updates the whole time, which put us completely at ease. You could tell from the pictures alone that Murphy was relaxed and happy, very comfortable with Chiquita, Barb, and everyone else in the household. It's clear Barb genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. We'd book with her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.
