“I had my 2 little dogs staying with Esther for 3 days. Esther was great, very communicative, and was extremely flexible in accommodating my uncertain schedule. Her place looks like a resort for dogs... great view, with patio and lots of space to roam around. She also had all the dogs under control and they all seemed to get along very well. Constant updates via messages with photos and videos. Both Suri and Ernesto had a good stay and I will be sure to come back to Esther next time!”


“Alison was great with Holiday. The daily updates provided peace of mind that she was being taken care of well. We would definitely use Alison again.”

“This is our second time with John and was more than amazing, Max love to stay with him, he always takes great care of Max, I received updates with videos and photos of Max as usual, no doubt we will be back again when needed, thanks John!!!”



“Great communication and shared lots of updates that provided peace of mind that the dogs were left in good hands. Definitely booking with Genniver again”


“Annie was a GREAT sitter for our little princess. Punky got along so well with Riley and Chico. They all had a ball! Even though Punky either got excited, or wanted to mark her territory, Annie took it all in stride. She didn't make a big deal of it, even though it was a big deal to us. Punky never peed in any house before so we were very surprised when we were told she had an accident. Annie said Punky was lovable, adorable and followed her everywhere. THAT'S our Punky!! Thanks again Annie, Riley and little Chico, Punky can't want to come back!”
