“Nina was amazing!!! We had flight delays, and last minute she was able to keep Winston another night for us. Super grateful for her, and her clear love for puppies!”
“Christine took great care of my 3 dogs, and they were quite happy at her house. She sent updates and photos, and she was very responsive to our messages. She’s wonderful.”
“Charlie had the best time staying with Zulu and Zoro! He also made a new best buddy in Zoro. It was great to receive pictures every day of Charlie and Zoro cuddling and napping together.”
“Our pup had an amazing time at Lauren’s! Lauren kept our active 1 year old dog plenty busy with walks, trips to the dog park and play with her own sweet doggy. She kept us updated w messages, videos and pictures throughout his stay.”
“I needed 5 hours of dog care for my newly rescued senior Pomeranian and I’m so grateful to have found Donna. Donna provided a calm and caring environment for my dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, and they took a 20 minute walk together. Thank you so much, Donna!”
“Sky was fantastic and incredibly communicative, sending regular pictures and videos of Larry. I can tell he had a fantastic weekend with her and her two pups. We will most definitely be back in the future!”
“There are not enough words to describe how perfect our boarding experience was with Alyce. During our initial meet and greet it was clear that Alyce and her family were knowledgeable, passionate, and caring which immediately made us comfortable leading up to a week long board. Throughout the stay Alyce provided us with daily updates to include eating and sleeping habits, many pictures and videos, and his overall his mood. Jax is looking forward to coming back soon to play with his new friends Mookie and Lucas. Thank you!!”
“I am so grateful to have met a WONDERFUL dog sitter. After my dog’s meet and greet with V, I knew she was the sitter for me. I left my dog with V for four days and I felt so much peace. She is so kind and caring. She sent me daily pics and updates, which calmed my nerves. I will definitely be using her again for doggy daycare and short vacations.”
“Luciana is fantastic! We've been a few times now, and my pup is always sad to leave her at pickup, which is a good sign. He is a picky eater with a food allergy and she always patiently ensures he eats well while there. So glad to have found her here!”
“This family is amazing. My dog warms up to them so well and they take such good care of her. I always feel in touch with how she’s doing because they send a ton of pictures, and detailed updates on what her day was like. They have an adorable little pup too, and are definitely dog lovers at heart. Highly recommend booking a stay here!”
“Bridges watched my dog for a week and did a wonderful job. She met me and my dog beforehand which helped make me feel more at ease, and she provided frequent updates on how he was doing during the stay. She took him on a lot of walks, and he had a wonderful time with her. I would happily have my dog stay with Bridgid again!”
“Nala had such a fun sleep over with Nyla and her other dogs. I appreciated all of the updates and photos and videos! I rescued Nala just 3 weeks ago and was grateful to Nyla for understanding that I don’t know everything about Nala yet. I’d love for Nala to be able to return to her loving care.”
“Laurie and Richard were amazing with my older little pup with anxiety. She loved her stay with them and they catered to her needs so well. The communication and updates were wonderful!”
“Kerstyn was wonderful with Rexy, and he had a great time with the other dogs. She sent regular updates and pictures, and took him on his first real run. Will use Kerstyn again!”
“Emma and Joe took excellent care of our dog while we were away. They provided daily updates with photos and videos, and were always responsive. They were also flexible and understanding when our flight was delayed. Knowing that our dog was in safe, trustworthy hands was the biggest relief. I absolutely recommend them as dog sitters if you are looking for experienced and thoughtful dog care!”
“First off, a big thank you to Amal! Amal was very attentive and proactive to care for my furry child while I was out of town for a few days. There were some optional things on my care instructions and Amal went above and beyond to meet them! My dog Luna was very happy to be in Amal’s care and had lots of fun hanging out with Pepper (Amal’s cavapoo). I was very pleased to get photo updates on Luna while I was away and to see that she was doing great with Amal. Overall, I highly recommend Amal and will more than likely, if not definitely, will be rebooking with Amal. Fellow dog owners, please consider Amal as a potential dog sitter 🙂”
