“Dartagnan was great at taking care of Axel. When I first met him for a meet and greet, I could tell he was knowledgeable about dogs. One thing I really liked was that he is always quick to address any mischievous behaviors that comes from too much excitement. He also sent me daily photos, which was reassuring. As someone who used to dog sit on Rover, I have high expectations. Dartagnan and his partner have exceeded them. Will definitely book with them again the next time I’m out of town.”
“Pandora had such a great time! My American Bulldog can be a handful sometimes, but Danielle made her feel right at home. I got daily updates and photos, which really put me at ease while I was away. It was clear she was well cared for and loved during her stay. I highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Guinness has separation anxiety and Marta was so kind. She contacted me and asked if there were any suggestions on how to get him to calm down. Then a day or two later I am getting pictures of him hanging out with other dogs. Marta and her children were great and sweet to Guinness. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Xu and Sam were absolutely wonderful. We left our senior girl with them for the weekend and couldn’t have picked a better home. They truly took care of her like she was their own.”
“Maricela was an amazing pet sitter. She was there on time when I went to drop off and pick my puppy up. She also send us videos during the stay without me asking, which was very nice to see how my dog was doing. I’m already planning to book her again.”
“We loved having Odin stay with Amanda and Anton!! They were very communicative and took the best care of our dog! We will absolutely be going to them from now on!”
“Maria was extraordinarily wonderful :) she did a great job of taking care of my Caelum Armani Labubu :) she would send me daily videos and photo updates of Caelum and his daily activities. It was my first time of leaving Caelum for 3 weeks so I was really anxious, I had a long long list of instructions specially on how to make Caelum’s food and Maria was able to deliver to the point that my Caelum loves to eat now lol :3 Maria was also very understanding when I asked her to extend another day because my flight back to the US got delayed and I was having a very bad migraine. Thank you so much Maria and Gisselle for taking good care of Caelum :)”
“Holly's second extended stay with Jackie was another great experience. Daily updates and photos, lots of attention and treats, and Holly even received a little holiday gift! Absolutely recommend.”
“I don't know where to start. They took care of our dog for 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying. I received daily updates with pictures, videos and kind words. They are wonderful! I would highly recommend Shauna & Peter’s family and I will use them again without doubt. Thank You!!”
“Penny was amazing! I left my pup, Ginger, with her for 2 weeks while we were out of country. Penny sent pictures of Ginger and made sure she had plenty of activity. I even noticed that Ginger had lost a few pounds that she needed to lose! I would highly recommend Penny!”
“I am so happy I found Niratcha! She is friendly and very caring. She sent me pictures and videos throughout the day and was very flexible and accomodating with my drop-off and pick up times. Absolutely recommend her.”
“Erena was perfect for Penny. She has this great fenced backyard. She took Penny for long walks, which she loves. Erena's husband loved Penny as well, as witnessed by a photo of Penny laying in his lap. I would highly recommend Erena to care for your pet!”
“Sarah was a great host, our dog Sammy had a wonderful time. She was caring, sent constant updates, and supported him as he adjusted to her home. I highly recommend!”
“Great communication from Ashley! I received pictures and videos and continual love from afar about my sweet boy. Huge yard and a great home for any doggie. Excited to have Bowie hosted there again, highly recommended! Great experience!”
About: I know how to make dogs comfortable and make them feel like they’re being taken care of well. Lots of treats they get from me I am free to watch dogs a lot during each day of the week. Any time of the day works for me as well to watch them I have a fenced in yard. I keep my basement closed so no dogs can go down there. Mostly on the main floor with me.
“My bichon poodle could not have been happier to be around other small pups during her visit over spring break. Diana even gave my dog fresh dog food when my dog wasn’t eating at all. Seems like my pup was so happy during her stay! Will book again! Thanks Diana.”
“Vladimir and Laura were absolutely wonderful with our pup! They were great communicators, consistently keeping us updated with messages, photos, and videos throughout the stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our baby was in such caring hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again—highly recommend!”
