“Anna is an exceptional dog sitter. She is a true dog whisperer - very sensitive to my dog's needs. Pippi has a wonderful time with her and the other dogs in her care. She's the best!”


“Hunter had a great overnight stay with John. John took him on several walks and made sure he was fed and comfortable. Our dog sometimes gets anxious and John knew how to calm him. John gave us regular updates and photos. We appreciated the reporting for Hunter's very first overnight with him. TY John!”


“The best experience I have ever had with a sitter! Christina was extremely flexible and communicative! She provided photos of our pup having the best time all weekend and frankly our dog was less than impressed with us when we picked her up. Will definitely be booking her again.”


“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ed and Shayana while visiting Boston. From the moment we met them, we could tell our dog Gus was in great hands—he warmed up to them right away, which immediately put us at ease. They were incredibly kind, hospitable, and communicative throughout Gus’s stay. We received regular updates, complete with photos and videos, several times a day. It was clear they were not only attentive to his needs, but genuinely cared about his comfort and happiness. Gus also had a blast hanging out with their sweet dog, Isla—an added bonus! It truly felt like a home away from home for him. If you're looking for a stress-free, loving environment for your pup, Ed and Shayana should be at the very top of your list. We can’t recommend them highly enough!”


“It was a pleasure working with Zwany and Leandro. They were very considerate and professional. They asked all the right questions before watching Jane. Jane enjoyed her stay. She took to them and their dog straight away. Jane is a bit standoffish sometimes. We got regular updates and pictures. Very nice people. I would feel very comfortable having them watch Jane in the future.”


“Rachel was great! It was Harley’s first time staying with a new sitter and he can be unpredictable, but Rachel was reassuring and positive about watching Harley and that helped ease my anxiety! She was communicative, sent pictures and did a great job with giving Harley his meds that he is sometimes fussy about. Very happy to have a new reliable dog sitter to add to my rotation!”


“Patrick was great at taking care of our pup while we were away! He was very responsive and sent lots of updates throughout the weekend. Would definitely recommend.”


“Tyler and his gf are really responsible and nice. Meimei and Jackson had a really good time. I think they miss Tyler and his gf already. We will definitely chose Tyler again!!”


“I would 1000% recommend Linda to anyone who’s looking for someone to watch their pup! She sent lots of updates and pictures during Beau’s stay and she is always very quick to respond. Her house and yard is perfect for dogs of all sizes and needs and I feel incredibly comfortable leaving Beau in her care. I’ll absolutely be booking with Linda again!”


“They are such a sweet couple and they took great care of my dog for the weekend! Sent lots of pics and updates, checked in as questions came up, and even gave her homemade treats! Would definitely book with them again.”


“Dohwee made my dog feel so at home and made me feel so at ease with continuous updates throughout the day and along with pictures. I would recommend. Dohwee 10 out of 10 time!! I was at first time user and my dog has separation anxiety, but my dog fell right at home.”


“Our dog had a wonderful time with Winn. He kept us up to date on how she was doing and she felt right at home with him. He’s very communicative and responsible which we appreciated greatly.”


“Anastasia did an amazing job caring for our dog, Bella. She asked the right questions, communicated effectively and we could tell Bella had a great time :) Thank you again!”


“Suni and her partner were amazing caretakers to our doggo, Lainey, while we were out of town! Suni always responded quickly to messages and provided daily updates on Lainey. In all the pics, Lainey was having the best time - whether that was napping or going on her many walks. Lainey was in loving and very capable hands. We will definitely use Suni in the future! Thanks so much!”


“Rebecca took great care of my dog during a weekend trip. I know he got plenty of exercise and love because he came home tired in the best way possible. Thank you!”


“Nate provided daily pictures and updates, asked all the right questions and listened as I shared my doggo’s triggers/stressors. I felt super comfortable with Sammy being there and was able to enjoy my trip without worrying. Highly recommend”


“Emma and Reese are so good with Sky. Sky likes a chill environment and I can tell their home is just that. Sky has stayed with them a few times now. See you again soon!”


“Nalix was everything we wanted out of a pet sitter: prompt communication, accommodating, good care of our dog, and convenient dropoff and pickup. We will use Nalix in the future!”


“Gil had great communication throughout the stay. Drop off and pickup were very smooth. We consistently received photos and believe our dog had a wonderful time! Thank you!”
