“We boarded our 3 year old corgi, Yasha, with Tammy for 11 nights. This was our first time ever boarding her, so we were nervous, but Tammy sent us photo and video updates throughout the stay. Tammy and her kids played with Yasha and took her to the dog park for socialization. Yasha has a big personality and can require a lot of attention, but Tammy was able to keep her entertained and active. Thank you, Tammy!”
“Carrie spoiled Coco and Chewie for us while we were out of town from Feb14-16. My fur babies couldn’t have been happier. Carrie provided plenty of photo updates daily. She even gave them the cutest presents when I picked them up. I would completely recommend her to anyone who needs her services.”
“Absolutely lovely to work with, very communicative and so relaxed and friendly with my dog. I got lots of pictures of him having an absolute blast, running and playing with a big doggy smile on his face, and I enjoyed my weekend away without having to worry about my little guy because I knew he was in safe hands. I won't hesitate to book again, this was a great experience and Briana is a gem!”
“Jacqueline was great! She sent photos and updates, and my dog seemed to really hit it off with her. I felt like he was a priority and she was able to give him what he needed. And she even gave me a little magnet with a photo of Tango on it as a gift!”
“Annie took great care of my dog Murray for 2 weeks while I was out of the country. Having a resident dog really helped burn off Murray’s puppy energy and keep him company in a new environment. Annie was great with updates and I never felt worried about what Murray was up to or if he was having a good time. Annie kept him on a great routine/schedule and when I picked him up, he was clean, happy, and well rested. I would recommend and will be back next time we need overnight care. Thank you!”
“Denise is a dream caretaker of our pup Didi. Super good experience from start to finish. Very communicative. She cares so much about our fur baby. Pics and video updates were great. We had so much faith and trust that Didi was being cared for and enjoying her time while we were out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Kirsten was wonderful with my dog. She kept me posted, and was flexible with a later pick-up. Her kids were great with my dog, and kept her entertained, which I appreciated a lot. ☺️”
“Kenia was kind, very responsive, and sent me updates throughout the day. My dog definitely had a good time - she seemed to want to go back once we got in the car 😅 would recommend!”
“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“Irina and her family are very sweet and took care of our crazy frenchie when we were n vacation. She updated daily with pictures and videos. Our dog seemed really happy in those videos and when we picked her up. We will definitely ask Irina again in the future to care for our dog.”
“Sherifat: is amazing boarder! She took time out to care for my pet last minute! She kept in touch while I was gone and even had patience with my pet when he didn’t want to eat! She asked questions, she walk him and even cuddle when needed! I will hire her again!”
“Wendy was great. She took a last minute booking that allowed us to enjoy our trip with peace of mind. Our dog Miley got along great with Wendy’s two dogs. They couldn’t stop playing all day. Wendy kept us updated with pics and messages. Miley got plenty of long walks while in Wendy’s care. Miley had such a great time that when we got back to pick her up she almost didn’t want to leave. If you’re a husky owner who has a dog with separation anxiety I recommend giving Wendy a try.”
“Thank you so much for doing an amazing job, taking great care of my girls 2 days and 1 night. Followed every instructions of their routine. My girls loved you at first sight. Grateful for sending me tons of pictures and videos. Definitely going to use your services again!”
“My dog loved her time with Kathleen and Bob! She also had a great time playing with their doodles and came home happy and tired. We have already booked another stay!”
“Qiana and Deuce were so amazing to us! They took us in last minute and was very flexible and understanding with modifications! Pictures and videos were sent throughout the whole time. Plus, they gave her a gift box at the end of her stay! 5 stars and would definitely take Azora back!”
“She was an excellent sitter! She sent pictures and updates every day, and was great at communicating. She had a nice set up for the dogs to play and you can tell she loves dogs. I highly recommend Cole and will be back the next time we need someone to watch Luna.”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with June! Our pup has a lot of anxiety, and we were nervous about leaving him. From the very beginning, June took our concerns to heart and made sure Ollie felt safe and cared for. She sent us daily updates with pictures and thoughtful notes that reassured us and helped us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she truly listened to what Ollie needed and adjusted her care with patience and compassion. Her attentiveness and calm presence gave us so much peace of mind, and we are so grateful to have found someone nearby who we can trust with Ollie. Thank you, June, for going above and beyond with your amazing dog-sitting abilities. We can’t recommend you highly enough!”
“Teddy is always happy and calm after a stay with Wendy and Aj! Wendy sends updates regularly, and I never have any worries when he is in their care! I appreciate them, and so does Teddy:)”
