“I am very glad to leave Masha with you ,Ms.Ajanay. She was very nice and responded me ASAP with any questions and posted pics and video of Masha .. She is reliable, efficient and truly cares about your pet.”
3. Zikia O.
“Zikia took care of both of my doggies for a trip. We received consent communication of how they were doing. You could tell they were having a great time. Zikia kept up with the dog's routine. Sometimes they can be shy to eat in new places and Zikia made sure they both did. Nina is a very nervous dog and Zikia and her family made sure to accommodate her and make her feel comfortable during a storm. We deeply appreciate her and her family.”
4. Mairim V.
“This was our first time boarding our dogs, Sarge and S'mores, with Mai, and it was positive before, during, and after! We arranged a meet and greet at Mai's house, and she was so sweet and friendly, plus her children were very excited to meet the dogs, too! Throughout their stay she was responsive and sent us plenty of updates to know the boys were safe, happy, and doing well. Once we brought them home she contacted me to check in and make sure they were settling in okay. Thank you, Mai! We would love to use your services again in the future. :)”

“Our dog Braylin enjoyed her stay with Scott and Evelyn. This was our first time using them as sitters and they were great. Braylin had a lot of exercise and attention when we were away. Scott kept us completely informed the entire time by sending updates and pictures, which made things a lot easier on us. We would recommend using Scott and Evelyn as dog sitters in the future!”

“Jess was great she watched our dog for a week while we were away. She sent us plenty of updates including pictures and videos. Stella loved spending time with the other dogs and enjoy a large fenced in yard. We felt very comfortable leaving Stella with her and will definitely use Jess again in the future.”
11. Monica E.
“We were very nervous about leaving Shelby but Monica really helped ease our nerves. She clearly treated Shelby as if she was one of her own dogs. We got pictures whenever we checked in. It’s reassuring to know that our fur baby is well cared for when we are away.”
12. Cathleen S.
“Cathleen was phenomenal!! She took care of our dog like she was her own! We got daily pictures and updates of our dog snuggling with her family! There was a fenced in yard for Jingle to roam and a family dog for her to pal around with! It is so great that our dog can stay in the house with a family and does not have to be in crate! Highly recommend Cathleen and we will be sending our dog back to her when we go away on our next hockey trip!”
13. Kristy O.
About: I’ve owned 2 pets since I was a child and took care of them on my own. I had two dogs that lived untill the age 16 and passed due to old age. I have experience taking care of puppies all the way through senior dogs. I’ve also taken care of neighbors dogs and family dogs while they been on vacation. I work a part time job, but I live 5 minutes away from my job. In my shift I work 8-12. But am allowed two 15 minute breaks so I am able to come home and take them out twice during my shift. I have a fenced yard and also like in a good neighborhood where I am able to take them out on walks and also live close to a park to be able to take them out to play!
14. Courtney B.
“I'm so happy that we found Courtney. Our Daisy is an older dog with mobility issues and Courtney was incredibly understanding and attentive to her needs. We received photos and messages every day that we were away that put us at ease about her care. I would highly recommend Courtney to any pet parent.”
15. Jackie M.
“Jackie is the best sitter for your dog if you need peace of mind, safety, love, accountability, and everything that is needed for a great dogsitter! We were very nervous about leaving our baby and visited many dog sitters before finding Jackie. Immediately we trusted her and saw in her the warmth and attention and professionalism that we needed. She is well knowledged with all dogs and works with you and according to your specific dog's needs. Her home is a perfect environment and she communicates wonderfully. She is a responsible and calm sitter who will present you with zero red flags. Most importantly is the peace of mind you will get knowing that your dog is getting the protection and the love and caring warmth that you can just sense. Affection. Our dog sensed her safety and love and took to her right away (which he rarely does with new people) It is hard to find that peace of mind especially if your dog is a child to you. Trust me completely. Jackie saved us from worry and nothing means more than knowing that your pet will get loved and cared for and treated the way you treat your pet yourself. She is affectionate and sweet and also relaxed enough to allow your dog to sleep with her and take over the home...being "chill" is also important because you dont want your dog to suddenly have strict rules and to be afraid of a new environment with new rules. Jackie is very relaxed and will not be strict or demanding of your dog. She is attentive to the food needs, senior needs, bathroom habits, anything that is needed she attends to. But in a gentle and correct way. We didn't want our dog to suddenly be in a strict environment with a strict new person. She provides the opposite. Just a safe and loving home... but with a sitter that watches your dog and provides the care ..not halfway but whole and responsibly. I am a worried and concerned and judgemental dog mom who wanted only the best for our baby. I was naturally wary of who I was choosing since it meant so much. So believe me completely when I tell you that if you are discerning too ..but want a wonderful, warm, safe, professional environment for peace of mind and a good home while you are away so you dont have to call a million times and worry and wonder... Jackie is the answer. We will leave him with her in a heartbeat again without any worries. Nothing can buy peace of mind and trust. She was a true find for us. We got lucky.”
16. Kristen R.
“Kristen was wonderful! You can tell right off the bat how much she loves and knows dogs. I felt 100% comfortable leaving my pup in her care. She’s extremely responsive and sends pics and videos. My dog had a lot of fun playing with her dog Cashew and her adorable son. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kristen in the future!”
17. Kathleen B.
“Kathleen is kind, caring, thorough and attentive. She really seemed to care for our pups the way we would at home, which is not always easy to find. She sent detailed updates with photos all throughout the day. Katie and Obi will definitely be back! Thank you, Kathleen!”
18. Drew R.
“Drew was absolutely amazing with my dog! He suffers from a good case of anxiety, but Drew was able to work with him and by the end of the boarding session Harry barely wanted to leave! I would recommend Drew to anyone wanting to board their dog. ESPECIALLY someone with a timid or anxious pup!”
19. Karren N.
“Excellent pet sitter! Flexible, caring, reliable and all around awesome! Taking care of our pet while we go on vacation for 3 years now. Five stars!”
20. Carly V.
“Thanks Carly and family for taking care of Neo and Cleo ! Both my dog and cat seemed to have enjoyed their stay at your home. Nothing is better than seeing your furry friends happy, safe and comfortable on your return after 8 days !!!”
