“Ashish was an amazing Dog Sitter. I was leaving my eight month old puppy for 15 days and was very nervous. As soon as I dropped my dog off with Ashish I felt completely comfortable. He went above and beyond The duty and sending videos and pictures I could see from those pictures and videos that Ari was very well taken care of. I will definitely be using him for all my future trips. Ashish gave me peace of mind when I needed it most.”
“Cooper was very well taken care of and we think he felt part of the family. We also received thorough updates all the time during his visit. We will definitely book again as soon as we are in need! Thank you Wenxin!”
“Allora was great! I only have positive things to say, Coco seemed so happy staying with her and her family. Allora sent me frequent updates and pictures which was great! I will definitely be boarding Coco with her again.”
“Julie and Adam were wonderful! They are so sweet and embraced all of Murphs quirks. I felt so confident leaving him, as he was immediately comfortable with them and in their home. They sent lots of photos and gave updates. I would absolutely reach out to them the next time I need a sitter. I’m so happy I found them!”
“We are SO grateful we found Luna! Our usual dog care fell through right before a long out-of-state trip, and we were genuinely considering postponing because our senior dog, Indi, has recently been diagnosed with IBD and needs a specialized diet, daily meds, and a calm, attentive environment. She can get stressed easily in new places, which has previously led to tummy issues and even skin flare-ups — so we were very nervous about leaving her with someone new. From the very first message, Luna was incredibly warm, proactive, and thoughtful. She even offered to set up a meet-and-greet right away before we could ask, which immediately put us at ease. Once we dropped Indi off, it was clear Luna treats animals like family. Her own dog, Jim, also has IBD, so she had first-hand experience and comfort caring for a pup with similar needs. Throughout the two weeks, Luna provided detailed updates every single day — including meals, meds, walks, and yes, digestion reports (very appreciated 😂). She took so many adorable photos and videos that we could see how happy and relaxed Indi was. Our dog walker also commented on how noticeably happier and healthier Indi seemed while staying at Luna’s — her stools even improved (a true win for IBD dog parents!). Communication was flawless, kind, and reassuring the whole time. We felt completely at ease, which is priceless. We would absolutely book with Luna again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a sitter who is caring, attentive, and truly exceptional. Indi came home happy, calm, and healthy — we couldn’t ask for more. 💛🐾”
“Working with Jeanette and her sweet family was wonderful! Lil Ray came back nice and tired from all the play time. Would definitely recommend and will use their services again!”
“Ross was awesome! From our initial meeting, he asked all the right questions about the care and personality of my pup. During my pups stay, Ross was great about sending daily photos and updates on how my little guy was managing with my absence. I could see from the photos that my pup and Ross's pup were getting along really well... This left me feeling very comfortable that my pup was enjoying his 'vacation'. Thanks so much Ross! We look forward to Baxter staying with you again soon!”
“I really appreciated all the updates throughout Hunnie’s stay; every walk, playtime, and feeding with lots of photos! Deborah was also very accommodating after some last minute travel changes on my end and was able to take care of Hunnie for an extra night. She came home happy! Would definitely book with Deborah again. Thank you!”
“This was our dog’s second time staying with Kiarash. Our dog had a great time! Also very grateful for being able to pick up our pup on the later side right when we flew home :) Definitely recommend!”
“Asatur was great with my dogs. I love his place. There is a huge backyard and several rooms in the house dedicated to dog care. I felt at ease to leave my dogs in his care. We will be booking with him again!”
“Louis watched our dog for multiple days over Thanksgiving week, and was absolutely amazing. He gave super prompt communication and is very knowledgeable. We felt at ease during our trip knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend Louis if you are in need of a great dog sitter!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely love animals. I understand the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I love taking dogs on hikes and to the beach as well. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure pets get the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, walks, and special care needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
About: Hello! I’m a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of a 10-year-old Shih Tzu–Pomeranian mix which lived with us since he was 2-month-old. So I am experienced with dogs at all ages. I’ve cared for many smalls to medium size dogs over the years and understand their routines, personalities, and needs. I have a clean, well-kept and very large, fenced yard and offer a calm, clean, and safe home with plenty of attention and gentle play. I enjoy hosting small to medium-sized dogs and treat every pup like part of the family. What is my drive? I host dogs, because I want a companion for my doggy, I enjoy spending time with dogs, and I am home every day of the week. I am available for boarding seven days a week and maintain a flexible schedule. I am home most of the day, allowing me to provide consistent supervision, care, and attention. I can often accommodate bookings on short notice and work with your schedule to ensure a smooth drop-off and pick-up experience. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment for all dogs. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can run and play freely, along with a doggy door for easy outdoor access when appropriate. I only have one small, friendly dog at home, and I carefully introduce pets to ensure comfort and compatibility. Your dog will be supervised, cared for attentively, and treated like part of the family.
“You took great care of Maia and she seemed happy and settled in easily. We appreciate you being very welcoming and we knew she would get along with other dogs and be well cared for. We'll definitely be back in touch when we travel again!”
“It was a roller-coaster at first, previous bookie canceled at the last moment so we had to scramble to find another sitter, flight was leaving in 2hrs. She accepted we have never been separated longer than a work day. Anna was/IS great!! She took great care of Aries sent plenty of pix and had us at ease!! Definitely will be booking her again”
“I'm really appreciate Nadine's care for Laila. She seemed really nervous on the first day despite having a meet&greet beforehand. Nadine was patient with her and she sent an update every day and I love seeing that Laila is getting along with her cute poms. My car broke down on my last day of the trip and Nadine was able to extend the booking for another day and dropped her back to our house.”
“Radha is Kai’s favorite 😍 Kai gets so excited to go and soaks up lots of love and attention while there 😊 I get videos and updates and feel worry free bc I know Kai is getting excellent care.”
About: I spent 17 years looking after my childhood dog and loved every second of it! I’m a stay at home college student who loves all animals so I have lots of time to be an attentive and loving sitter. I love making every animal feel loved and cared for. I currently take online classes from home with one in person class every Tuesday. I leave my house to run errands or hang out with my friends every now and then so I’m home pretty much all the time! I have a fenced, fairly large backyard with grass. I live in a calm neighborhood perfect for dog walking. Dogs and cats are free to walk anywhere in my house as I’ve never had experience sticking my own dog in one area of the house in the past.
About: I am a loving and friendly dog sitter! I grew up with two dogs, a poodle and a Chihuahua. My family currently has a bull terrier that I love very much. I also take care of my best friend's dog when she is out of town. I love dogs and going on walks so this combination is perfect for me. I am currently a nanny to one of nephews as needed but I am free every day during the summer to take care of your furry babies. I make sure I read their cues of needing water/food, when they need to pee/poop, when they're overstimulated, stressed, or happy. I also make sure to pet them and show them love by scratching them, patting them, and rubbing them. I also follow any schedule that is given to me to make sure they stick to their normal routine.

Eric was absolutely wonderful with our dog Soba! He sent us regular updates with photos and videos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. His own dog was a great companion for Soba and it was clear he was having a blast the whole time. We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and caring sitter. Highly recommend Eric and will definitely be booking with him again!
Julie and Adam took great care of my dog. I have a small, high energy, reactive dog, who is slow to warm up to new people. They cared for him very well and generally seemed unfazed by his shenanigans, which was a relief. They provided plenty of photos and updates, and we will certainly use Julie & Adam again in the future! Thank you!!!
Pepper now knows Lanette and Dave as Grammy and Grampy. Just like grandparents do, they spoiled pepper! I’m not sure he wanted to come home🤣 Lanette and Dave are wonderful people and I am so happy to have found them to care for our pup. They were personable, responded fast and sent many pics. I highly recommended them!
So glad we found Jeanette! She was awesome in communication and very professional. It was our dog’s first time being boarded for more than a weekend and Jeannette helped him to get used to the stay. She send daily updates with pictures which kept me well informed. I would book her again.
Louis was great with my shy 8-year-old pittie. It normally takes at least a full day for Thor to warm up to new people, but after just a 15-minute introduction at Louis’s home, he acted like he’d lived there his entire life. Louis has a real gift for making anxious dogs feel comfortable and safe.
Such an amazing experience for my two dogs! They were so catered to during their stay and I couldn’t be more thankful. I got so many updates while I was enjoying my vacation and it brought me so much comfort to see both my girls happy. I also booked this last minute and both sitters were incredibly accommodating
I'm just so pleased that my pup has somewhere he can feel safe at when he's not with us. He has some separation anxiety and prefers to stay with someone if we have to be gone for a few hours. We've been working with Zoe periodically over the last year, and after a handful of doggy day cares and boarding for just a night or two at a time he's comfortable enough to eat over there when he stays even for a few hours. Thanks Zoe!!!
Leila and her family took such good care of my 2 dogs while I was away for a week. They sent so many photos and updates of the dogs getting along with other dogs and their friendly cat! They took special notice of any dietary or habitual changes in the dogs and let me know right away. My big dog has never met a cat and they were willing to make a careful introduction which was a success! I would definitely book again in the future!
Luna is a wonderful dog sitter! Cosmo, my dog was thrilled and happy to have stayed with her and her lovely dog, Jim! Jim was also the perfect fur host, showing Cosmo where they should play and that it was okay to run around and play together. Luna has a large and lovely yard and Cosmo enjoyed the serenity of the yard and home. Cosmo can be shy and aloof, and he does not react well to negative energy. But, he warmed up to Luna because of her thoughtful and positive approach to care giving. I trusted her to take good care of him. And, she did! Cosmo can be a velcro dog as he is with us practically 24/7, so it eased our anxiety to know that she was there for him. Thank you Luna for taking good care of Cosmo. Much aloha, Diane and Philip G.
Eleonora is beyond amazing! Kind, gentle, diligent, and works excellently with anxious dogs. Oslo and I are beyond thrived we found her and her lovely home. My guy has tons of separation anxiety, but she worked with him at every step and consulted me when needed. Please 🙏🏾 don’t hesitate to book if you are in need of a sitter for your anxious baby. She is an expert with dogs and specifically the anxious ones. ❤️❤️❤️
Jennifer was extremely thoughtful and kind with our senior pup! She kept us well informed and was very caring when our dog had a few unforeseen hiccups. Our dog had a great stay and we are so glad to have met Jennifer. We hope to have our dog stay there again soon!
