“Very impressed and happy with our doggy daycare for our dog. What made it special was the organization, detail and so much care put into it. Loved having a meet n greet beforehand and how well organized it was. I loved the photos and videos of our dog. I felt very reassured with Tracy, I will definitely book again.”

6. Janine H.
“My experience with this sitter was flawless. She was quick to respond, very accommodating with scheduling, pick up, and drop-off times, and sent regular updates. I felt like my dog was in great hands with her.”
7. Kevin Y.
“We left Gigi and Coco with Kevin and his family for a couple weeks as we were doing renovations in our home. This was the longest we’ve ever boarded the girls but I was relieved having them in Kevin’s care! Kevin was always very friendly and responsive and sent daily pictures and updates of how the girls were doing. They had the girls on a great schedule and even shared their activity logs with me. They got to socialize with other pups and they came home healthy and happy! Thanks so much we will definitely bring the girls back in the future!”
8. Carolina & Isaac H.
“Carolina was such a caring sitter. She is kind and considerate and sent lots of photos. I felt very comfortable leaving my kitty, Lucy, at her house. She seemed very relaxed and content.”
9. Parthvi & Mayank J.
“Such kind people Parthvi and Mayank are, they treated molly so well. Molly looked so happy and well taken care by them. They provided constant updates about molly during her stay. She found her forever 2nd home. Thank you 😊 Yuki is such a sweetheart 💜”
10. Carmen B.
“We had our furry baby Avery with Carmen for a few days and our girl was so happy with her the whole time. Carmen made us feel at ease while we were away,knowing our girl is in good hands. We were thrilled to know that Avery was going for long walks, playing fetch and interacting with Carmen's boys. She has a blast at her place indeed. We will be booking her again❤️”
11. Valentina V.
“Finding Valentina in this app is a blessing!! Kaya had an amazing sleepover at her place and I was at very at ease because she proactively updates me with pictures and even videos to let me know what Kaya is doing. Prior handing off Kaya to her and her husband, she asked me what routine does Kaya have, and it shows that she truly cares for the well-being of my dog. I am lucky that she is just around my area. Definitely will rebook”
12. Finn C.
“Finn was a wonderful dog sitter for my dog Gimli, she sent lots of photos and updates so I knew he was being well taken care of while I was away. She also got him to take all of his allergy pills during his stay. I came home to a super happy pup and would be delighted to have Gimli stay with Finn again.”
13. Madison & Jeffrey A.
“My girls Roxy (senior Great Dane) and Maisie (young Goldendoodle) stayed with Madison and Jeffrey for a week; they both have different types of personalities and care requirements and they thrived in their home! It was obvious that my girls were happy and healthy as seen by daily updates and I had no worries about them at all while I was gone. Would not hesitate to have them as pet sitters again; wonderful with the dogs and gave me peace of mind! Highly recommend!”
14. Melissa C.
“We were thrilled with Melissa’s care of our dog. He is excitable and anxious but appeared happy and calm with her and the other dogs. We think he had a better vacation than we did!!! We wouldn’t hesitate to leave him again and highly recommend Melissa!”
15. Kristina T.
“Kristina was absolutely amazing with my girl, she took such good care of her, took her for many walks and treated her like family. Sent me updates a dpicture which I loved! Couldn’t be happier and Phoenix cannot wait to go back for another visit this summer! 10/10 recommend :)”
16. Deborah-Lynn W.
“Our dog went to stay with Deborah-Lynn while my husband was recovering from surgery. She frequently checked in and gave us updates about how he was doing and what he was doing. Our dude seemed happy, engaged and well taken care of. She provided lots of mental and physical stimulation for the dogs. We look forward to his next visit!”
17. Ilona S.
“Pippa (our almost two year old golden doodle) had an absolutely wonderful time with Ilona and her family. Ilona sent us photos every morning and afternoon and made sure Pip had everything she needed. In fact, Pip had so much fun I think she’s already looking forward to her next visit! We cannot recommend Ilona and her family enough - they’re perfect dog sitters”
18. Jr & Willarie A.
“J.R. is a very reliable and knowledgeable person when it comes to taking care of our elderly Lab. We have total confidence in leaving our beloved family member with J.R. when we travel. You should too!”
19. Nimisha A.
“Nimisha is hands down the best boarder we've ever have! She asks thorough questions (even the temperature that your pup is most comfortable with), makes sure that your pup gets enough caring, love and exercise, and is super communicative and easy to work with. When we were away, she sends frequent and detailed updates about our pup. I rested assured that my pup is in good hands. Our dog loves her so much and had a happy stay! I won't hesitate to recommend Nimisha!”

About: I have been taking care of my dog, Percy, (on my own with no help for a year now. I treat him as if he is my child and I would extend the same level of care to your doggo. I have always loved dogs from since I was a child and never allowed to have one so Percy is a dream come true for me. He gets lonely at times so having a bit of company from time to time would be great. I work from home and my puppy needs company sometimes. I take my dog on one or two walks everyday and he plays with his toys when we are inside. I also have a very large balcony that my puppy enjoys and so will your dog My dog is very well cared for and I plan to extend the same level of care to your dog. I have always been a dog lover and a naturally nurturing person
