“Ruomai took wonderful care of my 6 month kitten (Tiny) for 20 days while I was away. Ruomai was reliable and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Tiny was happy, loved and cared for :)”
“We had a fantastic experience boarding our cat with Wenge for the day while we were visiting the area. She was responsive and easygoing and it seems Ruby felt at ease in her home. Thanks Wenge!”
“Eva and her family were wonderful care-takers for my two cats, Moo & Min! She made me feel at ease once they were boarded and always kept me in the loop on how they were doing. Will definitely rebook again!”
“Winter stayed for more than 2 weeks at Sabrina’s place and he was so happy. She provided regular updates through messages, photos and videos of Winter. Sabrina gave him playtime everyday which kept Winter active and content. She accommodated all our requests while keeping Winter which kept us at ease and comforting to know that he is been cared for and is in a safe place where he is happy. Whenever I need to board Winter I would be thinking of Sabrina first.”
“Ashley was able to squeeze our dog in last minute and was excellent. She sent multiple updates with pictures and took him for a lengthy walk in the morning before pickup. We will definitely book with Ashley again in the future.”
“Wei-Chien is an incredible sitter who absolutely spoiled Bumi! Toys, trips to the dog park, lots of treats and endless love. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Judy was an amazing sitter to my Cockapoo, Lucy!. She sent regular updates on Lucy’s progress, and her own dogs were sweet and friendly. Lucy returned happy! Will definitely use Judy again.”
“Priyanka was an excellent sitter for Bee! Her dog Link made quick friends with our dog and they had a great time playing hard, and napping harder 💤 Priyanka sent us lots of photos, videos and updates while we were away which made us feel confident knowing Bee was getting great care. I would highly recommend!”
“Our Bernese Mountain Dog loved staying with Kara. She provided lots of updates with pictures, which gave us peace of mind. Thank you so much for your service! We will definitely book again with her.”
“Andres is the best!! I was unable to walk my dog for a week so he was completely riled up when I left him with Andres for the day. Andres took him for at least 4 one hour walks and when he came home he was finally calmer, even the day afterwards as well. Andres is really saving me as an overwhelmed dog parent! Thank you!!”
“Awesome stay, really helped us out! Very much appreciated the daily updates and pictures, it was really comforting to see our dog have fun while we were away.”
“Jason is the absolute best! We started with a meet and greet and right away. It was apparent he was a competent, responsible, loving dog owner. He welcomed my high energy puppy, Bo, with open arms. Bo boarded with Jayson for six days and I got daily photos and messages of all the fun things they were doing. I knew Bo was in amazing hands so I was able to have a relaxing and stress-free trip. I won’t hesitate to book with Jayson again!”
“Our dog Griffey had a wonderful week's stay with Janine. He got lots of outdoor play, walks every day, and a ton of attention, which he adores. I appreciated the daily updates and could tell that he was in good hands the whole time. We won't hesitate to leave our pup with Janine again.”
“We are very comfortable leaving our pooch with Lynn. She is very well prepared, and has essentially arranged her life around training and caring for dogs. She will be our first call next time we need someone to watch our doggy.”
“Our dog was well cared for and came back quite happy and tired (which was appreciated). Josue sent periodic updates and was quite responsive to questions. Highly recommended!”
“Saksham and his wife took great care of Coco! He was happy and comfortable the whole time. They kept in touch with regular updates and photos, and followed all instructions perfectly. I’ll definitely contact them again in the future!”
“Alysha and her family took such great care of our dog. I received updates while he was in her care and we did not have to worry at all about his well-being. He was safe, happy, and loved during his stay.”

Charitini & Pana took great care of Moose when we were away for a couple of days. It was our first time dropping Moose off with them and they made him feel right at home. Took him on lots of walks and played with him so he wouldn’t be bored. He came home happy, tired and ready to crash! We will definitely reach out to them next time we are looking for boarding for Moose.
Amazing and very kind and caring lady! She has looked after our dear dog several times! We are so happy to have found her! Very professional, keep us updated every single day with texts, photos and videos of our dog, and took our dog for several daily walks. She also cared for our dog by giving her meds and food exactly the way we needed it her to have them. Overall I will totally recommend Carmen! And we hope to continue having her look after dog in the future! Thank you so much Carmen!
Behnaz is one of our favourite sitters and she just hosted our dog for two weeks. She took excellent care of her and ensured she got exercise tailored to her rehab program, had her medications and appropriate enrichment. She was very conscientious about details from the right amount for the weight loss diet our dog is (sadly!) on to monitoring her for other health concerns. We feel so much at ease when our dog is with Behnaz and would strongly recommend her. We even drove from out of town before a flight just to make sure our dog was in the beat hands for a long stay. Thank you for the love and care !
Dogs came back healthy and tired, it seems like the dogs had a great time. They asked great questions and had a pretty good intro routine set up at the dog intro which made us very confident leaving our dogs with them. Will definitely reach out about dog-sitting in the future!
Had a great experience with Jana and our 14 pound shihpoo. Jana is kind, attentive and responds quickly. You can tell she is a genuine pet enthusiast who has a wonderful setup in her home for you pup to feel safe and provided for. She took our pup on lots of long walks and made sure he had everything he needed.
Isha and Carlos were incredible with Clover while my husband and I were away for a few days! They went above and beyond and exceeded any expectations we had. They truly treat your fur babies as if they’re their own. We will definitely be going to them again if we ever need a dog sitter!
They are great. We left Oreo with them for 3 days and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. As expected, it took some time for Oreo to adjust to a new environment, but the care and patience they showed was amazing. They made sure he felt comfortable every step of the way, (even hand-fed him on a day when he needed that extra attention) and shared regular updates. They genuinely care about the pets they look after. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, and caring boarding environment for their dog. Can’t thank you guys enough for the care and love you gave to Oreo. He’s a bit pampered, but you handled him with so much patience and kindness.
Cole and Hanee showed my two German shepherds the kind of love and attention that parrelels my devotion for them. For 8 days they sent pictures and videos of them running in a fenced yard or multiple walks around the parks. Including giving my girls affectionate hugs and doing tricks. I highly recommend this couple to everyone.
I boarded my Beagle 2 nights and days with Myt for the 3rd time. Myt is very capable and loves dogs. She makes sure all my dog's needs are met ie Playing with her, walking, feeding, time outside in backyard. She is allowed on the furniture just as if she was in her own home. My Beagle loves to come here and is relaxed and happy when I pick her up. I highly recommend Myt and will rebook for sure. Thanks to all.
