“Mike and his wife are very accommodating to Vega! They also sent videos and pics to update us how Vega’s doing, and I can tell from the pic, Vega was very comfortable there! Definitely will be my go-to choice for Vega.”
“Lucy was an amazing Rover sitter for our 15 month old Maltipoo, Teddy. She kept us updated consistently throughout the weekend, which we really appreciated and gave us total peace of mind. It was clear Teddy was in great hands. It also seemed like a great environment for dogs, with a clean and spacious property. We would not hesitate to leave Teddy with Lucy again anytime.”
“Jonathan was super helpful in caring for my dog and his separation anxiety during my time away. Typically when I return from a trip, he'll be super clingy and whiny with me, but this time he was okay and acted the same way he did when I come home from work, which showed me he had a great time. Jonathan was also great at sending me pictures and reports while I was away, which kept me from worrying too. If you're reading this Jon, thanks!!”
“Sarah took great care of my dog and was incredibly thoughtful throughout the whole process. The crate was quite heavy, but she went out of her way to help me carry it all the way from my doorstep to hers. My dog received attentive care Sarah took him to the movies, for walks in the park, and kept me regularly updated on how he was doing. After coming home, my dog seemed to really enjoy his time at her place and even became better behaved. Sarah is truly a dedicated and caring sitter, and I highly recommend her. I’ll definitely reach out to Sarah again the next time I’m away! i will give Sarah 5 stars without any doubt!!! Thank you so much Sarah 😊”

“I’m very happy with the care my dog received! The sitter was gentle, patient, and kept me updated throughout. My pup came back calm, happy, and clearly well-looked-after. It’s not easy for me to trust someone with him, but I felt completely comfortable. Definitely recommend, and I’ll be booking again! 🐾💛”
“Yuki had a wonderful stay with Mabel! This was her first time being away from us, and Mabel was so kind and patient in helping her settle in and gradually warm up to both her and the other pups. We really appreciated the thoughtful updates, photos, and videos too. It was so reassuring to see Yuki feeling more comfortable each day.”
“Raymond and Keyu were absolutely awesome! They took good care of Peanut, they were caring and attentive to every detail we had and went above and beyond with entertainment and lots of cuddles.

“I was quite nervous leaving my 1-year-old cockapoo since we’re almost always together as I work from home. When I saw Tom interact with True for the first time it put my mind at ease as did meeting and communicating with Bethany by text. She sent me lots of pictures and assured me that True was able to decide for himself what interactions he was comfortable with with other dogs. It was clear that Bethany understood the importance of the dogs in our lives and how much they mean to us. She takes care of them so well because she holds this in mind and seems to have a lot of experience as well. Will definitely trust True with them in future.”
“Eddie was very professional. You can tell he has a love for dogs. Nikki seemed to have a good time. Eddie sent multiple videos and pictures during my time away from her. I will be using Eddie again in the future.”
“Kevin was absolutely amazing with my dog. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. Kevin made him feel comfortable, safe, and truly at home. When I came to pick him up, my dog was so happy and relaxed—it honestly felt like he didn’t even want to leave! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being cared for with so much attention and kindness. I would highly recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be using his services again!”
“Ilana and Lambros were Vinnies first sitters ever. Which made this a big deal, it was either going to be great or not. And it’s was better than I expected. From the moment I met Ilana and Lambros I was put at ease by how calm and friendly they were with Vinnie and myself. Other than my total meltdown lol my overall experience was perfect. From checking in with constant updates to getting multiple pictures, I always felt confident that Vinnie was okay. I will definitely be returning ♥️♥️ thanks so much!”
“This is my first time to leave Jasper with someone else. I am so grateful to have found Yasamin for dog boarding service. Yasamin is a true dog lover and took excellent care of my dog while I was away. She followed all of my instructions and even went the extra mile by taking my dog for walks and giving him plenty of attention. She sent me regular updates and photos, so I never had to worry. I will definitely use her services again! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She took such great care of Louis and Blanco, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my boys were in loving hands. She kept me updated, was attentive to their needs, and treated them like her own. They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of my babies! ❤️🐾
PEACE OF MIND. I have had my shepherd for 11 years, and as he has been becoming more senior, I have found that I worry sometimes about how he will do with a sitter. Maria was ABSOLUTELY exceptional. She was very caring, very engaged and took excellent care of my dog. Even though he is senior and does need a bit more attention around his hips and medication, she did an absolutely phenomenal job. Always proactive, and responsive. Very accommodating. She is by far one of - if not the best sitter I have found for my dog. I cannot recommend her enough.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Zsuzsanna. Leaving my diabetic and blind Miniature Poodle in someone else’s care was understandably stressful, but from the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease. Zsuzsanna is incredibly caring, patient, and truly knowledgeable about managing diabetic dogs and the special attention that blind dogs require. She handled my little girl’s needs with confidence and compassion, which meant the world to me. Throughout her stay, Zsuzsanna sent me regular photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was heartwarming to see how happy, relaxed, and comfortable my dog was in her care. When I picked her up, she was content, cheerful, and clearly had a wonderful time. It was obvious that Zsuzsanna treated her as if she were one of her own dogs. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely with my precious girl. I would wholeheartedly recommend Zsuzsanna to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and experienced pet sitter, especially for dogs with special medical needs. She is truly exceptional.
Kevin was absolutely amazing with my dog. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. Kevin made him feel comfortable, safe, and truly at home. When I came to pick him up, my dog was so happy and relaxed—it honestly felt like he didn’t even want to leave! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being cared for with so much attention and kindness. I would highly recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be using his services again!
Our golden retriever Sunny stayed with Sandra and her family for 3 nights over the March Break. We know Sunny had a good time because he was reluctant to leave at the end of his stay! He thrives on attention and I believe he got a lot of attention at Sandra's house. He also became friends with their dog Molly! Sandra sent us the cutest picture of our dogs together on my dog's XL dog bed. We were kept up-to-date with how Sunny settled in with their family and we received photo updates as well. The whole family really loves dogs, so I would recommend leaving your dog with Sandra and her family.
We had such a great experience! 🐾 They took amazing care of Maya and kept us completely at ease while we were away. We loved receiving daily pictures and updates—it made such a difference knowing she was happy and in good hands. Maya also had the best time playing with Arya — they got along so well and it was so nice knowing she had a little companion while we were away! You can really tell how much they care, and we’re so grateful for the attention and love they gave her. Highly recommend! 🥰
We had a wonderful experience with Eddie! He was incredibly caring, reliable, and attentive to every detail. We received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Our pet Luna was happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. We would absolutely recommend his services and will definitely book again in the future!
