“Eun has been very diligent in sending multiple pictures and videos daily to keep us updated about how Penny was doing everyday. She was more than happy to take care of Penny’s special food restrictions. She also made sure Penny was more than comfortable during her boarding. Thank you so much Eun.”


“Nina is such a great dog sitter, she took good care of our lil Theo. Additionally sends pictures and videos during pet sitting. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nina for such an amazing job.”


“Lydia took incredible care of our pup while we were out of the country. We had never left him for so long or gone so far away and I was nervous since he is the baby of the family. She sent so many pictures and videos and really went above and beyond to ensure he got lots of love and attention. He always looked happy and I was reassured right away that he was in great hands with her and her family. I would recommend Lydia to anyone!”


“Shivani did a fantastic job taking care of Oreo. He looked happy and comfortable when I got home. Shivani kept me updated with regular photos and videos, which helped ease my mind while I was away. She made sure Oreo was well fed and cared for, and also spent lots of time playing with him—especially with his favorite balls, which he loves. I really appreciated the attention and energy Shivani gave him. Highly recommend!”


“Nisha and her family were wonderful with Miles. We received daily pictures and/or videos. Miles is a shy dog, but he was very clearly treated with great care. We thoroughly appreciated Nisha and her husband for being flexible with our schedule and their expert handling of our Miles. Thank you. 10/10 will rebook with Nisha.”


“William was great to our dogs, they always looked like they were having a great time in all of the pictures that he sent me. He has a nice big house with a beautiful back yard that our dogs enjoyed. We will be having our dogs stay at his house again next time we go out of town.”


“An excellent job taking care of our Charlie on short notice (and a Saturday) thank you!!”


“Satyam was very responsive from the beginning and kept us informed of how our dog was while he was boarding with him. We will board Max with him again for sure.”


“Smitha has been amazing. She sent updates at regular intervals and followed instructions to the T. Bruno in general is a shy guy but adjusted pretty quickly and felt at home at Smitha's home and Smitha family treated him like their family. We felt very comfortable leaving Bruno at Smitha's place. I would be more than happy to rebook with Smitha.”


“We just picked up our 17-month-old Great Pyrenees mix, Luna, after a 6-day stay with James and Iryna—and we couldn’t be happier. This was her first time away from us since adoption, and we were nervous about how she’d adjust to a new home, a different routine, and being around other dogs (even though she loves them), since she’s our only pup . James and Iryna made her feel right at home. We received tons of daily photos and videos showing how happy and loved she was. She had a blast with the other dogs, got lots of walks and playtime, and even learned not to steal food (she’s usually a fast eater!). We even got pictures at night showing us how relaxed she was and sleeping. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Luna was in such caring, loving, and capable hands. We can’t thank them enough for treating Luna like one of their own. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trusted, loving environment for their dog. Highly recommend!”


“Joanna and John are extraordinary caregivers! We were so fortunate to find them. Our pup spent two weeks with them and we never worried once. We received daily pics and thoughtful updates. It was clear our pup was in very capable, caring hands and enjoyed their beautiful yard and family home. Looking forward to booking another visit soon!”


“Ashley has a nice spacious house with a fenced backyard. Her dog is friendly. She asked several questions about our dog’s interests, habits, routine, likes/dislikes, vet information etc. Ashley maintained adequate communication throughout the stay. This was our first experience with Ashley. We have no hesitation requesting her services in the future again and recommend others to engage her services.”


“We are so happy we found Hommer & Hellen! They took such good care of our girl, Daphne. We got great updates with pictures and videos which made us so happy to know she was having fun and well cared for. They truly go above and beyond to make sure your dog has the best time! Daphne didn’t want to leave. We will absolutely use them again!”


“Renee and her family did fantastic and spoiled Bella so much :)”


“Amy was a fantastic care taker for my two dogs. She consistently sent updates and I could tell she genuinely cared about my dogs as much as she did her own. Even when one of my dogs had some behavior issues she was able to deescalate amd remain hospitable. Would definitely recommend her.”


“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog Venti with Jenna for an overnight stay at her home, and I couldn't be more impressed and pleased with the experience! From the moment we met her and her dogs to when I dropped off my pup, it was clear that Jenna is a true dog lover and experienced caregiver. Her home was warm and welcoming, and she introduced my dog to her pets in a calm, friendly way that instantly put them at ease. Throughout the stay, Jenna kept me updated with pictures and messages, making me feel comfortable knowing that my dog was in such capable hands. She followed all of my instructions to a tee, from feeding times to walks, and even made sure to engage my dog in plenty of playtime and cuddle sessions. I could tell that my dog was not just being "watched," but genuinely cared for. When I picked my dog up, she was happy, well-exercised, and clearly had a great time. Jenna's attention to detail and thoughtful care set her apart, and I can confidently say that I will be booking with her again for future trips. If you're looking for a loving, reliable dog boarder, I highly recommend Jenna! Your dog will be in great hands.”


“We could not have asked for more in a pup sitter for our Havanese. Rina and Alex are genuine dog lovers and cared for our pup as if he was their own. Also, my pup loved playing with Gigi. We have used Rina twice and recommend her without reservation. I often hesitate to travel because I dread leaving my little guy behind. Such a relief to find a "second home" for our pup!”


“We had an excellent experience with Ron and I highly recommend his service! Ron cared for our Ella for four days. He made sure to give our very high energy pup enough exercise each day and was very attentive to our instructions for her care. He provided frequent updates to let us know how she was doing. Ella and Ron's dog got along great and I think having another dog friend helped further reduce any stress from her stay since this was her first time staying with someone else. Ron will be our go-to in the future whenever we need to board Ella!”


“Alexia was awesome! She took such great care of our Bella and was always responsive and flexible. Bella loved her time with Alexia so much that I think she was sad to come home! Look no further. Book Alexia if you can!”
