“Ashely was amazing with Nalu! He stayed with her for 9 days and when I picked him up he was sad to leave! He had a hot spot that needed to be treated with medication and she was good with applying the medicine and it was pretty much healed by the time I picked him up. She gave me updates with pictures and videos throughout his stay too! We’ll definitely be asking her to watch Nalu again!”

“This was my first time booking a pet sitter and the first time my puppy was away from me for more than a day so I was super nervous about the whole thing. Thankfully Kimberly was available and walked me through the whole process. She sent daily updates and pictures and was always available to answer any questions I had. Her and her kiddos really did treat my puppy like their own and I would 100% recommend booking with her, I know we will again.”

“Diana was exceptional!! Our dog Hazel is quite shy around other dogs and was handled with such love and care! She was able to safely socialize, be cared for, AND we got daily photos and videos of her while we were away. Diana is such a joy to work with, she truly loves what she does, and I can't recommend her enough!!”

“Peter and his wife are exceptional. We did a meet and greet before hand for a longer sit, and they also accepted a shorter notice sit for me as well. Our pups got on great, and I had so much peace of mind while I was away. Truly wonderful and will absolutely be using them again.”
“Melani was great taking care of CalCal my goldendoodle. We met up beforehand to make sure my dog would get along with her dog. She sent many photos during the boarding. Would use her again; thanks Melani!”

“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”


“Amy and family took great care of Ahsoka! We received lots of pictures and videos while we were away, along with updates and comments about how great she was doing, which really helped our peace of mind.”

“Paula is friendly and so knowledgeable. Her dogs were great playmates for my dog, so I got a happy, tired out pup when I came for pick up. Paula was flexible with me on drop off and pick up times due to icy roads - I really appreciated her kind demeanor and quick communication.”

“Kristopher was very helpful and accommodating in setting up boarding for my dog just a few days before I needed to leave town. He put my mind at ease with leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know. I got updates and photos of my boy each day and I’m pretty sure Kristopher could make a living doing pet photography! Should I need pet sitting again, I will certainly seek out Kristopher again.”

“Hayley & Graham were awesome! We so much appreciate them for taking care of our two pups and the new friends Chloe and Millie made while they were on vacation too. Thank you for the pics and video it made us miss them a lot :-)”

“Jessica was prompt and eager from the beginning as we were looking for a last minute sitter. It was our first time leaving our rescued pup with someone and she was open for all questions and concerns we had. She went above and beyond our expectations by sending us daily photos and updates on how our dog was doing which helped tremendously for us to enjoy our vacation with an ease of mind. Our dog has had minimal interactions with other dogs due to covid and we were very worried about how he would react being around other dogs. But wow!!! He did amazing and we feel so proud of him with how well he socialized and overall did. Jessica invited us in and showed us where our dog would be playing and hanging and her huge fenced yard was amazing. He had so much fun I could tell and I feel he didn’t want to come back home ? Can’t thank Jessica enough for this first time experience! Thank you so much Jessica!”

“Champ enjoyed himself a great deal! Irene was wonderful. Very communicative and understanding. I could tell she cared a great deal about his comfort. I was worry free during our trip!”

“Angelique did a great job w Sammy. He got lots of walks, photos of both inside hang time and outdoor adventures. He was always with a human to oversee activities. Photos were keepers! Really well done. Thanks Angelique. We'll visit again in the future.”

“We had a fantastic experience boarding our dogs with Matt over the Fourth of July weekend. With just one day’s notice, he was able to make accommodations for us, which we really appreciated. Throughout the weekend, Matt provided constant updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. One of our dogs struggles with fireworks, but Matt clearly knew how to help her through the holiday stress. His communication was excellent, he was laid-back, accommodating, and genuinely cared for our pups. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable dog boarder, and we’ll definitely be reaching back out the next time we need care for our dogs.”

“Allison was very accommodating with our dog Yoshi who still has a lot of puppy energy. I could tell that Yoshi had a great stay, he came back home calm and very affectionate. I'll definitely reach out to Allison for dog sitting in the future.”

“This was my first time trying out DogVacay and I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant and convenient experience. It was a day before I was leaving town and Shawna was more than happy to take Wally (9 month corgi/chihuahua pup) in for the weekend. The drop off/pick up times corresponded with my schedule and updates were fantastic. I would recommend anyone in the DTLA area to drop of their dog for boarding.”

“This is the second time we use Brittany to watch our pup and she’s such a joy! It really feels like our pup is going on vacation. Brittany sends regular updates and photos and our pup clearly gets a ton of attention and exercise. Would highly recommend!”

“Everett had a blast playing here! Angela is a great communicator and sent us lots of pictures of our boy each day we were gone. Very flexible in terms of pick up and drop off times. We were able to enjoy our time out of time knowing that our pet was in good hands!”
