2. Stephanie O.
“Stephanie was wonderful with Mochi and a great communicator! We got fun updates and pics the whole time- which was so reassuring since this was our first time leaving our pup overnight with a dog sitter. Mochi had the best time with Stephanie's pup Levi and the other pups she was watching. We would definitely leave Mochi there again next time we're in the area!”

8. Jaden H.
About: Hi! My names Jaden and I have a puppy named Medusa! I trained her myself and she’s very well behaved and loves people and dogs! I have years of experience will all sorts of pets such as dogs/puppies, fish/corals, and even some experience with cats, though admittedly, not as much. I’m a plant collector too so I can also help care for those, if needed ☺️ I’m currently working a full time job, so pet care will most often be scheduled for before and after my shifts, but also on my days off! I have a crate trained my puppy in our apartment. we have a small fenced patio perfect for getting a little fresh air without worrying about escape!
9. Susan G.
“We cannot recommend Susan and her family highly enough. She offered Zoe a wonderful home for a week while we were away. She was extremely available, and exceedingly flexible, and she had a wonderful set-up for puppy sitting. I felt certain Zoe was getting lots of quality time with her and her family, and that she got plenty of time at the park as well. We are very grateful!”

16. Hyesun M.
“Hyesun and Bob are absolutely lovely people, and clearly very experienced with dog care. I had no doubt that my anxious terrier mix was in great hands with them when I had to leave her for an overnight. They were very accommodating with the drop off and pick up times, even when I hit horrible traffic and arrived quite late. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for a responsible boarder!”

18. Allie H.
“The communication with the Allie was outstanding, start to finish. She promptly responded to our initial inquiry and took the time to schedule a meet-and-greet. During this meeting, she asked comprehensive questions about our dog's routine, dietary needs and any specific quirks or preferences. This attention to detail immediately instilled confidence in their ability to provide personalized care. Throughout our time away, Allie sent pics of our dog, reassuring us that all was well. We felt really comfortable leaving our dog with her, as her house was clean, safe and filled with positive energy. Our dog seemed right at home from the beginning. We would recommend Allie to our friends and would use her services again in the future.”
