1. Joscelyn P.

“Joscelyn did an amazing job watching my two boxers. They almost didn't want to come home afterwards. We'll definitely be back as long as she'll have them. Her kids played well with the dogs and they had access to her fenced in back yard and inviting dog-friendly home. Thanks for all the great care you gave my dogs while they were with you. They are in great spirits and seem like they just went on a little vacation. Looking forward to future bookings.”


2. Anne T.

“Anne is awesome! She obviously loves and understands dogs and respects your pet. She went out of her way to accommodate my 12 pound chihuahua mix BeeBe who had never been boarded since we adopted her from the shelter 1p years ago. I have every confidence in Anne and I give her my highest recommendation!”


3. Azure S.

“Azure was a great sitter. I knew at the initial meeting my dog was going to be in great hands. I received several photos throughout her stay and appreciated every one. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


4. Kelly & Ryan B.

“Excellent experience, very friendly and homey environment. Negrita loves her & Ryan! Thanks guys!”


5. Heather S.
“Heather was a wonderful sitter for my 11 month old puppy. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up. She was communicative and sent me photos and updates. I would definitely use her again.”


6. Karisa E.

“I'm so glad we found Karisa and her family. We were looking for someone to take care of our dog, Trooper, while we were out of town. We boarded him with Karisa and everything was great. We received messages all week long with pictures, and we could tell Trooper had a great time. We will definitely plan on boarding Trooper with Karisa in the future.”


7. Stephanie M.

“Stephanie was wonderful! So sweet and kind and loving to our pup Whitney! She had a great time, you can tell she was very well taken care of and loved! We got pictures and updates every day which was awesome too! We will definitely be using Stephanie again for our pet sitting needs!!”


8. Salehin H.

“Left my girl with him for the first time ever. I’ve never used an app to find care for her and he kept me updated on what she was doing and put my mind at ease. I would use Salehin again”


9. Tiffney S.

“Our first experience ever using this site came with Tiffney and my wife and I couldn’t have been any happier with the experience. We made the mistake of not booking our dog a kennel with a boarder during spring break, but it ended up working out well! Tiffney and her daughter truly provided our fur baby with a loving home and even a new couple furry friends (Tiffney’s dogs). Tiffney opened her doors on short notice and gave our pup a roof and needed attention for almost 8 days.”


10. Jennifer T.


“Jennifer and her family were amazing. She took wonderful care of our sometimes anxious pups. She even made sure they took their medicine and felt safe during a thunderstorm. Her home was clean and well-equipped for dog sitting. I would absolutely book with Jennifer again!”


11. Erin D.


“If I could give Erin 10 stars I would. She took great care of our dog Lucy! Lucy was a rescue dog from an abusive situation. She has a lot of separation anxiety. We were pretty nervous about leaving her for several days for our son’s wedding. It was clear immediately that Lucy really liked Erin and felt comfortable with her. When we picked her up she was excited to see us but wasn’t clingy or nervous like I expected. Erin sent numerous pictures and updates. We’re very happy with the care Lucy received and will definitely book with Erin again.”


12. Agnatha W.

“Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!”


13. Kristen O.

“I just used Kristen’s services for 10 days. It’s a long time to trust someone with my Sophie and couldn’t be happier. I met Kristen prior to booking confirmation and received great communication, photos, updates, etc. My Sophie is very playful and loved her time and playing with other dogs. We will definitely be using Kristen again in the future.”


14. Anahi D.
“Anahí is amazing with pets! She used to help me watch my dog Dulce when I’d have school. She’s the absolute best! Her Doggy Nova was truly loved 🥲💗🪽”


15. Alexa S.

“Wonderful experience for us the owners of our dog Cooper and a good experience for him too”


16. Rachel M.

“Our dog Lexi had a great week with Rachel and her family. Lexi adapted very well and was very comfortable. Rachel provided updates and pictures. Very impressed with our first time and will definitely be returning. Would recommend to friends and family!”


17. Amara L.


“Fantastic experience!! Couldn’t be happier. She sent tons of updates and we know that our girl was well cared for. She even was accommodating and kept her a couple of extra days when our flights were canceled! We will absolutely use her again! Thanks Amara!”


18. Greg F.


“Our family is so pleased with the care Greg provided for our pups while we were out of town. The amount of communication exceeded our expectations, and the level of care was top notch. Both of our girls got tons of play time and had their own dedicated room! They’ve been back home for about 15 hours now, just sleeping the night and day away. Greg really took great care and tuckered these girls out! We’ve already requested another boarding a few weeks from now ☺️”


19. Monica A.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 8. I love all animals but especially dogs. I’m an RN but in my free time I love being outdoors and going for walks. I work part time. So I have plenty of free time to spend with your beloved pets. I love going for walks and being active outdoor I have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. I have the sweetest lab to keep your fur baby company with playing or napping.


20. Nan D.

“Very great FIRST experience. My boy did not have a personality change and was just as happy when I picked him up after 3 days. I highly recommend!”
