“Cola was well taken care of for her overnight stay with Auana! I received photo updates and they treated her like one of their own! Even going the extra mile to brush her and send her back so happy :)”

“Another fantastic stay with Theresa. Misa is always so well taken care of at her house and I never have to worry. She sends pictures every day and a check in. Theresa and her daughter Lyv are our go to sitters when we travel.”


“Another great stay with Sophia. I enjoy the daily updates and pictures. It makes me happy to know that my dog is well cared for and having fun while I am away. I feel a home setting is best for my dog. Would definitely recommend Sophia.”

“Once again, our dog Benny had a great time romping with Rodney's pups. He always comes home exhausted we can tell he was well taken care of. He gets so pumped when we turn down Rodney's street! I'm so happy we have found a reliable sitter and I can rest easy knowing Benny is in good hands. Highly recommend!”


“Feliz & Ken are the only people I trust my baby with. When Higgy is with them, he is with family and I have amazing peace of mind that is priceless!”

“Mio had a great time staying with another family instead of being boarded! They were great with communication, including photos and videos of our boy while we were away for the weekend. Thanks again for taking care of him like he was yours!”

“Cal and Kelly took great care of Buttercup and sent lots of photos of her having fun with her dog friends there. They let us know when she was feeling anxious (she is a sensitive rescue) and took extra care to make her more comfortable. They are our favorite Rover sitters!”

“Lingli was so kind and attentive to our dog. She sent frequent updates and pictures that made us at ease being away from our fur baby. We will definitely be booking with her again next time we go out of town :)”

“Rosa absolutely loved her stay with Masha! Masha was very communicative and I got regular updates showing what a good time Rosa was having. I especially appreciated how thorough and thoughtful Masha’s questions were - she wanted to make sure she knew everything to take care of Rosa as best as possible, and I felt very comfortable leaving Rosa in her care. We will be back, thank you so much Masha!”

“Lauren was wonderful from the first day I met her. She put me at ease about leaving my fur baby with her. She was responsive to my messages and sent plenty of photos. I highly recommend her and would use her again as my petsitter.”

“I’m so glad I found Bria to watch my dog, Bash! She sent daily pictures and updates, and Bash looked so happy and at home in every one. It was clear he was treated like family and well cared for. I’ll definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Angie and family were great with our two boys, treated them like family. We got lots of updates and photos, and we always knew the boys were ok. Would definitely have them watch Boh and Tequila again.”

“Great experience leaving Oliver with their family. The two of them were conscientious and considerate about understanding Oliver's needs and ensuring that I felt comfortable leaving him in their care while I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Oliver with them again!”

“FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Highly recommend! We chose Sriju, in part, based on other excellent reviews...and she did not disappoint! From our first communications and introductory meeting before we left our 11mo Goldendoodle with her, Sriju was welcoming, gentle, extremely responsive, organized, completely accommodating, and loving. This was our first time leaving Benny with someone else (we were away six days) so we were already a bit on edge; Sriju put us at ease immediately. Everyday while we were gone Sriju sent texts and pictures (usually once in AM and once in PM). She took Benny on numerous walks throughout the day as well as to the dog park. She adjusted to his needs, not the other way around, and provided an atmosphere that made Benny completely comfortable, as evidenced by his affection toward her when it was time to pick him up upon our return. We highly recommend Sriju and can't thank her enough for making our Benny feel at home while we were away...and giving us the peace of mind we needed to truly enjoy our trip. THANK YOU, Sriju!”

“My pups were so welcomed and comfortable immediately. It was everything I wanted for them and had no worries while I was gone. What a loving family and beautiful home.”

“Erika was so amazingly kind and patient. My pup felt so loved and happy as shown by his happy trot every time we arrived. We were very pleased with and blessed by Toby's stay with Erika and her lovely family.”

“Sonia was fantastic with Murray and was extremely warm and understanding throughout his stay. She also sent the best dog-sitting pictures of anyone we've booked with and it shows how much she cares.”


“Melissa is wonderful. My dogs were so happy and it was obvious that they wanted for nothing. That had been walked and fed and cared for so beautifully. I will definitely go back the next time I need to be away from my fur babies! Thanks Melissa!”

Joleen was so good with my pups that when we showed up to pick them up they didn’t even want to leave! They obviously adored her and they stayed for about 5 days. She had so much land that I just know they loved. She was super sweet and sent us photos while we were away! Would rebook again for sure.
