“I absolutely loved having my dog stay with Jenn and Ian! They were very communicative and quick to respond with any of my questions or concerns. Would definitely use them again and recommend to anyone I know.”
“So Thankful for the fabulous care Rudy received! He is exhausted from all the fun he had with his new friends! I'm so glad I have such a wonderful home where Rudy can go when I am out of town. I only hope they are available in the future! I loved all the pictures of Rudy and his friends! Thanks!”
“I've used Kelleen many times and will continue to use her. She loves animals, and my Maltese mix, Bebe, loves to stay there. She is always very excited when I pull in front of Kelleen's home. I never worry about Bebe when I drop her off, and I know she is under excellent supervision. Kelleen is wonderful!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Cienya provided for my dog. From the start she she was responsive, professional, and showed genuine love for animals. She kept me updated and sent me messages and photos which put my mind at ease. Vienna went above and beyond and I’ll definitely book her again in the future. Highly recommend her services! Tanya”
“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”

“Eric and Allison took such good care of Beau! Their choc lab Moose was the perfect companion for a weekend stay. I know by the pictures sent that Beau got plenty of love from the kids and he even went in the car to pick them up from school! They treated Beau like family and that means a lot to us and our comfort for leaving him for a weekend.”
“My “girls” had a great time with Maria and Robert, I could tell by the pics and video they sent me. After meeting them I felt completely confident leaving my “girls” with them and would recommend them to everyone. Thanks Maria and Robert!,”

“Another great stay with Claudia and her sweet dog, Wally! We loved receiving daily photos of our dogs. Thank you, Claudia for the exceptional care our dogs received while we were away!”
“Jonathan took excellent care of my dogs, Cookie and Cherry. Throughout the time they were with him, he sent me photos and updates, and my girls always looked so happy and comfortable. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Jonathan was attentive, responsible, and clearly very caring with them. I truly appreciate the great job he did, and I would definitely trust him again to look after Cookie and Cherry. Highly recommended!”
“Took incredible care of our elderly pooch. Provided updates with pictures. Went on adventures and loved it! Even provided extra care and comfort when our pup needed some extra help getting settled at night. Would highly recommend.”
“Radhika was great with our dog and sent a lot of updates so we saw how well she was cared for. She also tried to make it as close to her home environment as possible so she was comfortable. I highly recommend and would use her again.”
“Priscilla and her family were wonderful with our precious Penny. This was our first time leaving her for such a long time -- while Penny is a sweetheart, she can also be a handful because of her youthful exuberance. Priscilla (along with husband and kids) left us feeling so assured that Penny was thoroughly loved during our time away. Not only did Priscilla give us frequent updates with pics and videos, she also gave us training and enrichment tips with some of the toys they had vetted with their dog Finn beforehand and got to use with Penny while she was there. Their dog is also a sweetheart, and our two pups got along phenomenally which was a delight. Moreso, Penny really bonded with the whole family! During the latter half of our trip, we had a neighbor take care of her, and they drove her up to our building safe and sound =] I'm so much more confident about traveling knowing I can leave my girl in Priscilla's wonderfully capable and caring hands.”

Matthew did a fantastic job watching our boxer, Duke, for a one-day boarding stay. Duke can be energetic and loves attention, and it was clear that Matthew genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable. Matthew was also incredibly accommodating with pickup and drop-off, which made the entire experience easy and stress-free for us. We truly appreciated Matthew’s reliability, flexibility, and genuine care for our dog. We would absolutely trust him with Duke again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, professional, and caring dog sitter.
James did a great job with my dog Stella while I had family in town. Stella had so much fun with James and Brody that she was always excited to see them again. He was flexible with all the last minute plans and kept me up to date with the fun they were having through the day. I always returned home to a happy and tired puppy, which was awesome!
She took such amazing care of my dog—She was genuinely happy and comfortable the entire time. You can tell she’s kind, loving, and truly cares about the pets she watches. I really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent, which gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!
DeeDee had the best time at Angela’s! Before confirming our booing, DeeDee and I met with Angela to see her home and get to know one another. I was quickly put at ease and super comfortable and confident that DeeDee would have a great stay. Angela picked DeeDee up and dropped her off which made my travel logistics a little easier. While with Angela, DeeDee was treated like a member of the family, and that’s a calculus what I want my pup to experience when she’s not with her own family. I’m looking forward to DeeDee staying with Angela again—peace of mind while I’m away!
Super flexible and attentive… took Conan on several long walks with their dog Maverick, with whom Conan got along very well and had a weekend full of playing. Patient with Conan adapting to their environment and to their dog and very communicative… kept me posted about Conan and sent many photos. Thank you so much!
As always, another great stay with Mariia!! She is our go to for watching our little girl when we go out of town. Love knowing that our little one is always happy, taken care of, and well-loved. When she’s with Mariia, it’s one thing we don’t have to worry about when traveling. So nice!!
This was the first time leaving our 9 month old Beagle, so we were a little nervous. Cassandra was brilliant with him from the moment we met, to the updates we got when we were away to picking him up. He got plenty of walk and cuddles, and he truly settled into her home. Would not hesitate to use Cassandra again.
This was our first time ever using Rover, and I was honestly a little nervous leaving our 11-month-old mini Bernedoodle, Leo. Eric and Allison were absolutely incredible from start to finish. They sent pictures and updates every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Leo was not just being cared for — he was part of their family while we were away. He had the best time playing with Moose and his dog buddies, and he definitely misses the kiddos too! We came home to a happy, well-loved pup, and that means everything. We will 100% use Eric and Allison again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving sitters. 🐶💕
Mandy took amazing care of my dog, Milo, while I was traveling for the holidays. She sent adorable photos and updates while I was gone which made me smile and put me at ease to enjoy my travels. She is really great at communication so it was very easy to schedule drop-off and pick up times. Milo overlapped with another dog and Mandy was very thoughtful about it and made sure both owners were ok with this. I 100% recommend her, I’ll look forward to booking her again!
