“Nueva was a lovely sitter for Johnny. He really enjoyed his stay with her. She updated us throughout the week with texts and pictures, so we could enjoy our vacation knowing that our little dog was having a good time. Would highly recommend, and we will definitely use Nueva again if we travel without our dog.”
“Lacey was so great with communication and getting our dog Tucker to feel comfortable at her home. He loved his stay and we will definitely be rebooking with Lacey in the future!”
“Araceli was an excellent host for my guy OTIS. She provided plenty of pictures and comments that made me feel comfortable and assured that he was getting excellent care. He seemed to enjoy interacting with her pups and came home a happy camper.”
“Viviana was amazing!!! When we went to go pick up our dog she didn’t even want to come home and would rather have stayed with them 🤣 that’s how much our dog loved Viviana and her husband! This was our first time having someone dog sit and it went absolutely prefect. I also received updates on how our dog was doing and that was the best! I will be re-booking with Viviana in the future! My husband and I were extremely pleased with the experience. Thank you all so much.”
“Luz sent me pictures of my senior dog sleeping, walking on a brick path, smelling grass, and roaming in a wooded area. I could tell that Cici was happy and that she was in good hands boarding at Luz's property! I appreciated that I didn't have to worry about her.”
“Geri was the best! Don't be fooled by her stern-looking profile photo; she is anything but! Super stylish and kind, with a huge heart. Our Roxy was very happy with her stay with Geri, and her home is beautiful, and every detail was accounted for in making it super doggy friendly. Her lil pup is also very sweet and got along very well with our picky, not-usually-a-dog-person dog, Roxy, which says a lot. Anyway, look no further, we highly recommend choosing Geri for your doggy needs!!”
“Rocio received my high energy super anxious German Shepard husky with true patience! Received photos and videos of her napping and playing during her stay. Rocio was flexible, understanding and I received great communication. Very sweet and down to earth. Leia definitely enjoyed her time there. Will definitely be booking with Rocio again!”
“Carl took amazing care of my pup!! He was very professional and had a lovely home. My dog got along well with his pups, and he played with her as if she was one of his own. I fully intend to use Carl again in the future!”
“Jackson was amazing with Frankie! He took great care of her over the last few days, kept me updated with consistent communication, and sent the sweetest photos that put me at ease. You can tell he genuinely loves dogs and pays attention to the little things. Frankie came home happy, calm, and clearly very well cared for 🐾💛”
“I came into Palm Springs to lead a workshop for three days and needed to board my little poodle. I cannot believe my good fortune in finding Osamu and Darrill. They are so loving and caring and Ollie was so well taken care of... as if he were their own pet! I would actually drive to Palm Springs from my home in Ventura County if I needed to leave him for a longer period. Yes, they are that good! Jeannd”
“Alan & Joe were great with our dogs. They sent photos and videos to keep us updated throughout the week. The boys got lots of love and many walks! The pups were happy and stress free during their stay.”
“We left Charlie, our Golden Doodle, with Mike for 12 days. We couldn't have been happier. When we dropped Charlie off at Mike's home Charlie took an immediate liking to Mike and his dog Cooper. We received numerous photos and video's while we were away and it was clear Chalice was having a great time. Mike' home is very dog friendly as is his yard and pool. Charlie really became attached to Mike and Cooper. Our dog has some chronic health problems and of course Mike had no problems dispensing his medications and giving his prescription dog food. When we picked him up after our trip he was happy to see us but did hesitate a bit, apparently not sure he wanted to leave. In summary, Mike is beyond five stars. He clearly treated Charlie as if he was his own dog. Don't hesitate to book with him. You will not find a better person to care for your pet.”
“I think this will be the easiest 5 star review I’ve ever written. Scott took incredible care of our dog, Tucker. He kept him for several days while we were out of town visiting family. Scott made sure to set up a time for us to visit him and his partner, Kevin, at their home and give Tucker a chance to meet their sweet boy, Nico. They became instant play buddies. Scott asked very detailed questions about Tucker’s habits and tendencies and made sure to write down every detail. Within just a few minutes, we knew we had found the right people to care for our boy. Scott sent us pics and videos throughout our time away. We will definitely be using his services again.”
“Mike was a great sitter for Chapo. He sent us pics and kept us updated. We will definitely be using him in the future. Thank you Mike for taking such good care our boy!”
“Kevin was great. His communication was fabulous keeping us posted on our little boy. He even sent pictures, which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to know their pet is in good hands.”
“Katie is wonderful and treated our dogs Molly & Griffin awesome. I was thinking that the two of them were not going to want to come home with us when we picked them up. Thank you Katie for the care and the sharing of photos of them while we were traveling. Katie is highly recommend from us and our two pups.”

Nuvea was amazing-especially on such short notice. She was super responsive and easy to coordinate with, which made everything stress-free. Boon was clearly well taken care of and happy when I got him back, which says a lot. I really appreciated the updates and the genuine care she showed. Would definitely trust Nuvea again and recommend her to anyone needing a reliable dog sitter!
I can’t say enough about Gilbert . His home and his compassion for animals is 100% 5 stars. It was our first time leaving out big boy and I can honestly say I will be using Gilbert again. Gilbert took such amazing care of Tucker and actually spent quality time with him exercising him which is something that is very important to us . If you need someone you can trust to love your fur baby then look no further .
Took great care of Bella!! Bella can be a real handful as she has a lot of energy but she is a sweetie. Thank you for walking her. She loves walks and always loves more playtime too. She must have loved playing with Mike the Husky because she came right home and cuddled up on her bed. Haha.
