1. Ivan L.

“I highly recommend Ivan's services - while just a short 1 day stay, he took great care of our pup. He came back to us 24 hours later well-fed and having taken multiple long walks. Ivan kept us updated throughout the stay w/ quick snippets and several pictures. We will definitely request Ivan's help again!”

4. María R.

“Maria was able to accommodate taking Sadie over the holidays when a previous booking no longer worked out. She sent lots of updates and helped keep me at ease while my girl apparently had the BEST time and was better behaved than I’ve ever known her to be 😂. Absolutely will be booking with Maria in the future!”


5. Ilhaan R.

“Ilhaan and Ellen took great care of Kona for the weekend! They took him on daily long walks and sent consistent updates and pictures, which put my mind at ease as they were the first sitters to watch Kona other than family. Will definitely be using them as my go to sitter in the future!”


6. Bennett S.

“Bennett was such an amazing caretaker for our cat, James! Our original petsitter plans fell through last minute, but Bennett was available in short notice. He was extremely responsive and kind, sending us daily photos and updates of our cat. I felt 100% comfortable with leaving our cat in Bennett's care, which is rare for me. I highly recommend choosing Bennett to look after your animals- he does it with care and love! Thank you sooo much Bennett, next time we're in the area and need a sitter, we will definitely be contacting you.”

“William and his wife took wonderful care of Luna. They sent frequent photos, videos, and updates of her happily playing.

They clearly have lots of dog and pet experience.”

“Karen had great communication and sent pictures every day! Drop off and pickup were really smooth and I can tell that my dog enjoyed her stay.”

13. Cesar S.


“Cesar provided outstanding dog boarding services during the winter holiday week! Our dog Koa had an awesome time with Cesar with walks around the neighborhood, playing in the backyard, cozy time on the couch when the weather was inclement, and loved meeting other dog friends! Cesar sent lovely pics every morning and evening with a short report and update every day that gave us peace of mind and also made us smile (Cesar takes amazing pics!) We would highly recommend Cesar to anyone looking for excellent care for their dog!”


14. Martina M.

“Martina was great! She followed up to everything very quickly and sent pics and updates of our dog often. You can tell that she loves dogs. She even got teary eyed when giving us our dog back! We will definitely use her for future dog sitting needs!”

17. Anna K.

“We are so glad that we found Anna! This was only the second time we had left our pup Kiki with someone else, and Anna put us at ease right away. She is kind and gentle with dogs and very knowledgeable. Her home is very clean and peaceful. Anna made sure that Kiki got out for walks and was comfortable in her home. Her little pup was also a good companion for Kiki (who is also small). She also sent us photos! We will definitely use her again!”


18. Cynthia L.

“I had a last minute change for my trip and couldn’t bring my dog anymore. I messaged Cynthia within a few hours of having to leave and she was super responsive, very flexible and agreed to watch my dog for the weekend. I picked my pup up and she was tired and happy.”


19. Naya Patricia D.

“Cam, our pup, had the best time with Naya! She sent us updates, photos, and videos every day we were away, and in each one, Cam had the biggest smile on his face. I'm super grateful to have found Naya for future stays.”
