“Taryn was very pleasant and met me immediately outside. She let me know that Lady Claire had met a new friend and that she was happy. She was also able to send me pictures of Lady Claire.”
“We left our three year-old retriever, Nora, with Kripa for three days. This was our first time using Rover and, honestly, I was a little nervous, leaving her with a stranger. We had a first meet and greet and all went well. In fact, I was very happy how Nora played in interacted with her dog. When I dropped Nora off, Iimmediately received photos and videos within an hour. I did not expect this to continue, but I was happy to continually get pictures and updated videos of Nora‘s integration, walks, and life throughout the three days we were away. This made myself and my kids so happy to see that we had made such great of choice of boarding. I would definitely use Kripa again. Her communication and punctuality is outstanding. Her house is very clean and she is very easy to talk with. Thank you again for taking such good care of our fur baby!”
“Loryn was very communicative about how Nova was doing throughout her stay and provided photos often. Nova had a great time with her during her stay and would definitely be back.”
“As I snuggle with our 98lbs Ridgeback, I'm at peace knowing we have been blessed with the caregivers we've been looking for. As a first time paw-parent, we left Ayo in your care today and I can't tell you how relieved I was to know the care Ayo recieved today. The pictures you shared, the mini video of taking for Ayo for a run and his nap time, nevermind how excited he was when we dropped him off this morning said it all. Suffice to say, Ayo has a second home. Thank you Natalie and Daniel for giving us the peace of mind we've been looking for. We will be back. 🙏🏿🙌🏿💕💯🐾💯🐾💯🐾.”
“Amanda is such an amazing host for Duke! He had the best day while bording with her. Duke had his time playing in the park, beach and she made sure that I received updates and pictures of him! I would defer board Duke with Amanda and her husband! Thank you Amanda for having Duke and taking such a good care of him!”
“Heather is wonderful, extremely responsible, professional and caring. Their place was like home for Posie, they took care of her like their own. Posie loved roaming around the big beautiful backyard and snuggle with Heather ❤️ I received constant updates, I had no doubt Posie had the most amazing time away from home.”
“Sushmitha was wonderful with our old cat Lupe. I was really worried initially, bc I had never boarded my 18year old girl before, but pictures and FaceTiming helped quell any fears, and she came home happy and healthy. I will definitely be having Sushmitha watch my Lupe in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Champ is my 9 years old now rescue baby , we sent him to Yogitas for the first time , I was more than happy and they always shared pics that made life easier. I would definitely recommend them .”
“Tucker stayed with Pragna & Aditya for two weeks and was treated like family. They sent us updates with pictures and videos and we could see how happy and well taken care of he was. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Just absolutely LOVED the service Melissa and her wonderful family provided, just BEYOND expectations! We were pretty apprehensive as we loved our last sitter who moved away so we are EXTREMELY grateful to have found her. Our Zuko has found a second home! She treated him like a king and made sure to send us loads of updates including pics and videos. I cannot recommend her enough!!!”
“This has to be my favourite puppy sitting ever. Kyla was extremely professional and full of empathy. She treated my dog like her own family and kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos. The environment inside the home was what won me, my dog didn’t miss us at all as the fury, little and the big members of her family kept my dog so safe and happy. I don’t think I will ever book any other sitter again. Thank you so much Kyla, kids and fury family members for making June feel so happy and loved. I can’t wait to come back for every other get away we have.”
“My 5mo old pup had the greatest time with Vanessa and her sweet dog Bella. Vanessa sent me so many updates throughout the day with pictures even without asking. My puppy seemed so comfortable at her home when I arrived to pick him up, he even ran back to give her a hug!”
About: I've had a lifetime of loving and raising dogs. From the chaotic puppy years to our sweet seniors. Experienced with dog walks, giving medication, and senior needs. I have experience with 'Frenchies', a breed with their own rules 😀 and I'm an expert in cuddles. My goal is simple: to make your dog so comfortable, they won’t even notice you’re gone. With patience, play, cuddles, and consistency, I treat every fur baby like family. Because to me, they are. 🩵 Now that I have an empty nest, my heart is still full and ready to share the unconditional love that only dogs can inspire. My schedule is quite flexible and I'm open to discussing your scheduling needs, and your pets needs. I have a large pet friendly home with a large fenced in back yard. Pets are free to roam in our home and check out all the new smells to make them feel more at home. I allow pets on furniture & beds, as long as this is routine in your home also. I also supply food bowls, and pet beds, no need to worry, I've got you covered. I sometimes have my fur grandbabies here for occasional visits. They are both very well behaved and good with other dogs.
“We just finished pet sitting with Julia for almost 5 weeks and it was wonderful stay for my little pup Daizy. Julia took care of her like her own dog and provided me with all the regular updates. Julia and her husband are the most wonderful being and super caring. Daizy was super happy and healthy while we got her back. I really can not thank you enough guys for taking such a wonderful care of my baby while we were away for long time. I would always be looking forward to have you guys take care of Daizy on every future occasion. THANK YOU from Daizy🐾 and her mom & dad.”
“Melissa and her family took such amazing care of Murphy! She sent us daily pictures of him fitting in perfectly with everyone including her own dog. It was our first time leaving him and she put our minds at ease that he was loved and cared for. We can’t recommend her enough! We would definitely leave Murphy in her care again. He had a great time!”
“Vania was great it was my first time given my dog, to her. I can say Vania took great care of my dog she was happy as she was home. This first time giving her my pet and definitely not the last time. Thanks Vania.”

Samantha is a really great dog boarder and looked after our Chloe so well. As a first time boarding with Samantha, Chloe felt immediately comfortable, not easy for a reactive dog and a testament to Samantha’s handling. Will be happy to use Samantha in the future and I know Chloe will be well looked after.
Cassidy took amazing care of my golden retriever. She was very responsive and helpful and sent lots of pics and videos! We would 100% recommend her. We no longer have anxiety when it comes to leaving our dog at a big kennel as I’m sure our dog can’t wait to be back with Cassidy!
It is my second time leaving Freddy with Sagarika, this time for 5 days . I would say that having Freddy run to their house when we parked being so excited and not even looking back at me says a lot about how much fun he had in her house last time. He didn’t even care that I’m leaving. I felt completely relaxed and trusting that my 1.5 years old poodle is happy in Sagarika’s house . As usual nice updates daily both videos and pictures made me feel happy during my trip.
Jiangyu and her husband took great care of my boy! He’s still a pup, and she was extremely understanding and accommodating of the little hiccups that can and do come along with puppies. Phero absolutely enjoyed his time playing with her dogs, I couldn’t get him to leave! She was great at keeping me updated the entire time so I had absolutely no worries (she even gave him a blanket to sleep with in his crate which I’m sure he was happy about). It was my first time boarding my dog, and the experience was so smooth. Jiangyu will most definitely be my first choice if I need to board my dog again, she’s amazing.
Karen was great with my rowdy girl, taking time to meet her prior to boarding to ensure a smooth transition. She kept a consistent routine to help with our training goals and shared her wisdom and knowledge to help us further our girl's learning. You will not be disappointed!
