Dog Boarding in Crescent Park, Palo Alto

“Thank you for taking such great care of Carmelo! I loved the photos throughout the visit and really appreciated all the communication. It looked like he had an awesome time with your family!”

“We were so happy with Jodie and her crew! Our dog had a fantastic time and came home exhausted and happy. She sent lots of updates and was fantastic to communicate with. She even brushed our girl’s very long fur so she was extra fluffy when we picked her up. I would absolutely book with Jodie again.”

“Marivel took amazing care of our Cheeky! He had so much fun with her dogs and she sent me photos and videos of his time with her. I felt very comfortable knowing my boy was in excellent in hands. I absolutely will be booking with Marivel again!”

“This was our second time booking with Jesse and Kimmy, and Phantom was sooo excited when we got to their house! He had a ton of fun staying with them and even got to have a pup cup! Jesse and Kimmy were super accommodating, definitely our go to sitters when we’re out of town.”

“Our dog seemed to really enjoy her stay at Sid’s home. The front and back yards were very dog friendly. Sid’s dog, Plato, was a cute and enjoyable companion for their yard adventures. Sid followed our instructions and sent us daily updates which we found very reassuring. Looking forward to the next visit!”

“MinJun and Mi Ran took great care of Lava during his stay. He can be a fussy eater sometimes, and they were very patient with him, trying different options and making sure that he didn’t go hungry. They took him out on walks and kept me updated with photos and videos! They even took him out for a drive and arranged a play date too! He came back home very happy!”

“Spectacular care and attention to detail! My dog had a great time and I got regular updates about his weekend stay. We're very satisfied and so grateful for the care he received.”

“Lavanya is very good with dogs, and took great care of our dog. She shared multiple updates with photos and videos throughout the stay. She far exceeded our expectations, moving her schedule around to make sure that our dog got enough playtime with her dog. Would certainly go back.”

“Stephen is very responsive and provided great care to Snow while we were away. We believe Snow had a wonderful time hanging out with Stephen and his family. We were delighted to learn that Snow loves to sunbathe with Stephen's dog. It's great to know our pet had a fantastic time while we were gone.”

“Tracy looked after our dog for more than a week while we were away and she did an amazing job! She provided regular updates with photos, showing our furry family member going on walks, playing, and receiving lots of cuddles. It was comforting to know Luna was in such caring and capable hands.”

“I would recommend Ana and Mark to anyone who is looking for reliable and kind people to care for their pets. .  I absolutely trust them with my dog, Buck, while I am away from home. I have a peace of mind knowing that they are in good hands. They are trustworthy people and I love the picture updates. I am very pleased. Scarleth Waddell, Buck’s mom”

“Margaret is probably the best dog sitter we’ve ever worked with. Let me give some context: our utterly cute dog was adopted in 2020 (pandemic dog) with already deep fear and trauma. We think something happened when she was a puppy that caused deep fear such as abuse or some sort of trauma. Basically, she was afraid of everything and utterly shy. We worked with multiple trainers for almost two years and finally got her to a good place. We learned with time and patience she gets comfortable with strangers and once you’re in her pack. You are there for life. She loves playing with dogs but dog parks would get complicated because other dogs sometimes would teach bad habits or become aggressive (trainers also mentioned things can escalate and certain owners have no control). We also learned she is scared of certain breeds and afraid of cats. But she has an incredible memory and is the smartest dog we’ve ever had. However, most people dog kennels, individuals have zero experience and patience. Given her memory, there are certain vets or dog daycares she will cry and try running away from if we are walking by. The true test of dog unhappiness. Fast forward to 2023, we’ve built trust and loyalty with our baby but the problem is she is still afraid of strangers and the unknown. She is al highly protective of her territory and will start barking (think a stranger walking up to me or a stranger entering our home). We’ve learned methods to make her feel safe and comfortable and ways strangers should approach. Basically it’s hard to find a dog sitter for her than the average dog. Most places are money machines and do not give her the time making her regress. Margaret is beyond words incredible. She knows how to work with all types of dogs including very shy dogs and dogs with behavioral challenges. She has ample experience and genuine care for animals. Also our dog is highly fearful of the breeds: huskies and German shepherds. Margaret has both and was able to get our dog comfortable going out on runs and walks with them. When we came to pick her up she was sad to go and saying bye to both Margaret, her partner John (another amazing human) and all their dogs. She loved all of them from Luma the chihuahua mix that made ours more social to the Willis and Jackson that made her confident to even Jackson who made her feel safe and like a queen. They even were flirting hahaha Never have we left our dog and received so many pictures and saw her so happy. She did not even want to leave when we picked her up and learned new commands in just one week like paw. Our dog even cried while we drove away and loved her new pack. Margaret said she fit right in. If Margaret and John open a doggie daycare, our pup would be there every day because we have never seen her so social and happy while remaining in a safe and controlled space. She was loved, fed like crazy (the way to her heart) but did not gain weight because of all the exercise, games and activities provided by this wonderful couple. Margaret is also an incredible trainer and has so much patience and love. I felt so easy on our holidays with my baby there, did not even think twice. We are beyond proud and since that week with Margaret she is a different dog. Sweeter, calmer and just more confident and trusting. Please open a daycare that this area so desperately needs. One thing- I recognize the price is expensive this was our biggest challenge but they are truly worth it!!”

“Nina and Leo were great sitters. They took care of Brian so well and sent me many photos and updates. They also drop Brian at home so it was very convenient. Thank you so much!”

“Kendall and family provided a great home-away-from-home for our dog, Ruby, while we were on vacation. We enjoyed our vacation, guilt-free, knowing that Ruby was having lots of fun playing with Kendall’s dog, Moon, going on walks, lounging around as she pleased and having a great family around to socialize with. Kendall provided frequent updates and photos and we couldn’t be more thankful. We recommend Kendall to anyone looking for dog boarding and definitely plan on booking again. Thank you!”

“Olga’s dog sitting is perfect every time! Our dog gets great exercise, Olga always sends fun pictures, and her drop off service is super convenient. She’s easy to communicate with and responds quickly. Highly recommend!”

“Junyoung was great! She was kind, sweet, and very caring. Our dog is a senior rescue with some separation anxiety issues, but Junyoung handled her like a pro. I would definitely use her again as our dog’s Rover!”

“Stacey is wonderful. She took great care of our dog, and we could tell from the photos she sent that our dog was having a great time with her. She was also very responsive to messages and great to work with. Highly recommend!”

“Blake was amazing at caring for my pup! He sent several pics throughout the day and let me know how my pup was doing!! Super happy with Blake!!”

“Rich was great with Charlie! We would definitely use him again. He communicated well and was incredibly flexible with our schedule and plans.”

“Adélie was fantastic! She took great care of my dog, treating her as her own. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She was also extremely communicative, answering my messages super promptly. My dog also needs medication and she administered this with care. Would definitely recommend Adélie!”
