1. Aliza D.

“Aliza is absolutely fantastic!! She walked my puppy and took him to the dog park several times a day, there were always several other dogs in her care for my puppy to play with. She is so friendly, flexible and great with dogs. She sent me pictures and videos of my puppy having fun every day. I felt so at peace knowing he was in such great hands. I will definetly board my dog with her again!”


2. Dr. Anna O.

“Anna took excellent care of Vader (Alaskan malamute). She kept in constant communication, sending photos and messages regularly. Vader requires some especial needs, and Anna attended to all meticulously. We are very happy with Anna, and we would definitely leave Vader with her again.”


3. Steve H.

“This is the third time I've left Max with Steve and Tiffany. Max has an amazing time. They have a dog, Daisy, who gets along really well with Max. They always go to the dog park, take long walks, run, and play with other dogs. Max is always well cared for and very spoiled. They let him get on the couch and cuddle. They constantly send pictures of how Max is doing. Honestly, I couldn't think of a better place for my little pup to be cared for. Thank you so much! recommended 100%”

“Lily had some much fun while staying with Bronwen and her puppy! She came home and slept for 2 days as she was so busy with them...that's how I know she loved it!”


6. Hatem & Karen M.


“Hatem and Karen took our 13 year old Yorkie Mocca in for a week and they were amazing. Communication was on point and they kept sending updates and pictures of Mocca’s stay. From the pictures it was clear Mocca was enjoying her time away and she came back home happy. We wouldn’t hesitate trusting Hatem and Karen again with Mocca!”


7. Candace M.


“Candace was so good with my pup, Percival! She gave consistent updates, followed all of his medication instructions well and loved him as much as I would! I will definitely be using Candace again when I need someone to watch him!!”


8. Alfonso G.

“I am very sensitive when it comes to my dog, Napoleon—a small, lovely Chihuahua who means the world to me. It was important for me to find someone who would watch him closely and care for him with attention and kindness. After searching through many profiles, I chose Alfonso, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Alfonso kept me updated daily, making me feel at ease while I was away. He took great care of Napoleon, ensuring he was safe, comfortable, and well looked after. When I returned, I could see that Napoleon liked him and felt completely at ease with him. Alfonso is truly caring and attentive—you can trust him to take excellent care of your pet!”


9. Monica M.

“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved fur baby to Monica, and I couldn't be happier with the care and attention that my dog received during their stay. Monica is a true professional, and their love for dogs is abundantly evident in the way they interact with their furry charges. From the moment I dropped my dog off, I felt completely at ease. Monica took the time to get to know my dog's personality, habits, and any special needs. Their genuine interest in my dog's well-being made me feel that my dog was in the best possible hands. Throughout my dog's stay, Monica kept me updated with photos and messages, which provided me with peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away. It was evident that they provided not only care but genuine companionship to my dog, ensuring that my dog never felt lonely or anxious. What truly sets Monica apart is their commitment to safety and well-being. My dog returned home happy, healthy, and well-exercised, which speaks volumes about the care and attention provided during their stay. I highly recommend Monica to anyone seeking a dog sitter who genuinely cares for and loves dogs. Eevee really enjoyed her stay with you!”


10. Melanie D.

“Melanie took such amazing care of our girl that I don’t know how to thank her!! We were on a trip during Victoria Day when there were fireworks and my dog is super scared of loud noises. Melanie and her sweet family comforted her and made her feel safe. They even sang to her to drown out the loud noises!!! She also sent us regular updates and kept us posted on how our dog was doing. I am so so grateful to Melanie and her lovely family, and would not think twice about leaving my dog in her care again. :)”


11. Julie L.


“Julie helped us out on short notice, and our pup had a great day with her! Julie helped her to feel comfortable right away, and it was a great experience for our senior dog.”


12. Priyanka D.

“Priyanka took exceptional care of Casper, providing frequent updates and pictures. It was his first time staying with anyone else and we could see that he was happy and well cared for. I think he’s missing her now that he’s back home, lol. Already rebooked for our next trip. Thank you so much Priyanka!”


13. Shuqi Z.


“Absolutely thrilled with Shuqi! She went above and beyond while taking care of my cat, ensuring he was not only well-fed but also happy and comfortable. I received regular updates and adorable photos, which made it easy to relax knowing he was in good hands”




14. Bob R.


“This was my first experience boarding Roger, my German Shepard, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Bob and Skip were absolutely wonderful. I left Roger with Bob and Skip for 9 nights. I received updates with images each day. When I asked questions, there response was almost immediate each time. Their house is perfectly set up to board dogs with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. They really understand how to care for dogs of all sizes and ages. I can tell Roger also absolutely loved staying at Bob and Skips. He was happy to see me when I picked him up, but also a little sad to leave the house and other dogs being boarded. I will 100% be calling upon Bob and Skip the next time I need to board Roger. I am very grateful for finding such a great couple and location to care for my dog when I am away.”


15. Jennifer A.

“This is our second time using Jennifer and I have never felt more comfortable or confident leaving my dog with a sitter! Both herself and her entire family are so very caring and my dog absolutely loves spending time with them and gets so excited as soon as we turn on their street. Will always recommend!”


16. Cyndy P.

“Cyndy and James are an absolute joy! This is the second time Cleo has stayed with them and from the communication to the care, I truly don't think you could find a better home for your loved one while away. If you are in the area, I urge you to consider Cyndy and James.”


17. Rebecca & Nathan v.

“We are absolutely thrilled. Rebecca and Nathan definitely took wonderful care of our puppy. They shared lots of pictures and videos with us while we are away, and we have also gained some dog walking tricks! Amazing experience, definitely recommend!”


18. Rie & Masahiro O.

“Took wonderful care of our 3 month old golden retriever puppy and provided us with regular updates and photos! So great to work with and would 100% have our dog stay with them again ☺️”

“We left our anxious senior dog for a week with Elena. He loved it. We got photo updates showing how he was doing through out his stay and he seem to have a great time with them. Highly recommend”


20. Svetlana & Artur A.
“I’m so grateful to have found Svetlana to care for my Jack Russell Terrier, Shiba! From the start, it was clear that she was in a loving and safe environment. The spacious, secure backyard was perfect for Shiba to run and play freely, giving me peace of mind knowing she was both entertained and safe.Svetlana provided excellent care, ensuring Shiba was happy, comfortable, and well looked after.
