1. Andy G.


“Excellent communication and clean housing. I really appreciated the daily photos. Was, at first, surprised that he boarded more than one dog at a time but it ended up being just fine. Thanks for excellent care, Andy!”


2. Chad C.

“Chad and Regina have become Bennetts family away from family. They love and care for my baby as if he was theirs. I highly recommend them to any and everyone.”


3. Sky G.

“We had a great experience with Sky. Our dog loved hanging out with her pups and came home happy. She shared pictures and videos on a daily basis, which we really appreciated. Our plans changed and Sky was very flexible in allowing us to adjust drop off and pick up times. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!”


4. Shanti S.

“Shanti took excellent care of our girl! We got nice daily updates and felt very comfortable leaving her with her family. We will definitely utilize her services again!”

“Michael was phenomenal as he took care of Sammy, my beagle. He was friendly and communicative and Sammy enjoyed staying with him. I highly recommend Michael.”


6. Yoshiko K.

“Moses stayed with Yoshiko for 3 weeks while I was away. He was happy when I picked him up. She kept me informed with updates and photos. I would hire Yoshiko again.”


7. Alejandro L.


“What great luck to find a dog sitter, who is as kind and reliable as Alejandro. I was so touched just how loving and caring Alejandro was with our dog Ollie. Ollie came home well rested, (probably) spoiled by all the love and treats, and ready for the next vacation soon.”


8. Elizabeth M.

“Elizabeth was great. Chase loved his weekend at her house. He went on lots of walks and spent lots of time playing. Elizabeth was great with providing updates and pictures to ensure Chase had a great weekend!”


9. Justin & Jeremy S.


“This was our dog’s second stay with Justin and Jeremy and we are just as delighted with the care they provided as we were before. Their home has become our dog’s vacation home.”


10. Erica Joy T.

“Erica Joy was a wonderful pet sitter. She was great with our dog and sent a lot of notes and pictures to show how well our dog was being cared for.”


11. Karen & Maria S.

“Karen was really great during a really hard transition for my dog and myself. Due to a death in the family we had to board my dog following her spay. She is HIGH energy usually but was coming off trazodone and more energetic than usual in a new environment after being couped up. She ended up with an infection which karen handled totally! - i am so appreciative of her during this difficult time.”


12. Rachel J.


“Rachel is wonderful! I was very nervous about boarding my pup since it would be the first time leaving him with anyone since I adopted him. Rachel took amazing care of my boy and was constantly sending me videos and pictures during his stay with her and her family. I will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding or daycare.”


13. Krystal S.

“Krystal took great care of Maisy. She was very communicative and shared photos each day with an update on how she was doing and getting along with the other dogs. Highly recommend!”


14. Stephanie & Shawn A.

“Stephanie and her family will take such amazing care of your dog! She is kind, communicative and clearly loves dogs. We had the best experience and highly reccomend!”


15. Kerri V.

“I had an excellent experience with Kerri as my dog’s sitter! From the moment I reached out, she was responsive, friendly, and professional. Blanca immediately warmed up to her, and it felt like she was right at home. Throughout the stay, Kerri sent regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Blanca returned home happy and well-cared for, and it was clear that she had enjoyed her time with Kerri—she even seemed a bit sad to leave! I highly recommend Kerri to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again for future trips.”


16. Mac H.

“Mac was an outstanding host for Chuck! Mac was great about scheduling on the front end, remained communicative throughout, and was super attentive to Chuck’s needs and preferences. Chuck was happy and calm when we picked him up. Will definitely keep Mac in mind for future care needs!”


17. Madelyn C.

“Having Hailey staying with Madelyn puts my mind at ease. I know she will be safe and loved. Madelyn keeps me posted with photos that I enjoy when I’m far from home. Hailey and I are lucky to have found her.”


18. Ron G.


“I was confident upon meeting him that Ron was well-suited to care for my dog. My two-and-a-half-year-old, rambunctious terrier took to Ron and his dog, Joey, immediately. Ron has a calm, gentle demeanor, as does Joey; my often, overly-energetic pet meshed well with both of them. I also appreciated Ron's flexibility with our schedule; he graciously agreed the two times I asked to add a day. Ron connected with and cared for my dog quite well. I'm very happy with the way our arrangement worked out and relieved Ron's amenable to future visits.”


19. Anne Marie V.

“Anne Marie warmly welcomed my little guy Hudson into her home! She sent photos, updates and took care of him just like her own. Will absolutely use her again next time I’m away.”


20. Jie Z.

“Jie and family did a wonderful job taking care of Chloe. She seemed happy and relaxed when we picked her up. They sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away. We will definitely book again!”
