“Je Yeon took excellent care of my dog Baxter. She and her husband were so patient with him, and I appreciate all of the photos and updates. They were very thorough and took the time to make him feel at home and learn about his routine. He was super happy when I picked him up and almost seemed sad that he had to leave. I will not hesitate to book again.”


“Aarti was so great! We set up a meet and greet prior to booking and poppy loved her from the start. She sent multiple photo updates and I knew poppy was safe and happy in her care. We will be back 😊”


“Rebecca has been a second home for our dog on many occasions now. She is absolutely dedicated to his care and comfort, including medication needs. Highly recommend!”


“Katie and Peter are truly a godsend! From our initial meet and greet (along with their dog Summy), to Kodak’s first weekend stay, I couldn’t be more thankful to know that they are the ones caring for my boy. They asked many questions for reassurance, and made sure that I was comfortable though not close by. Kodak also had a great time and I feel like he may want to trade me for them eventually 😭”



“Bear had such a fun time at Melinda’s house!! Loved the daily updates and all the new friends he made. Would highly recommend, they will take care of your pups as their own ☺️”


“Kim was an amazing dog sitter for our dog. He is very anxious and weary of strangers, yet he seemed right at home with Kim. She provided us consistent updates with pictures and was very communicative and responsive throughout our dog's stay with her. He seemed very relaxed and happy when we picked him up and seemed to have had a great time with Kim. I would definitely recommend her as a pet sitter. A++”


“Katlyn (and Auggie) were such sweet hosts that truly loved on our two kitties. She sent so many pictures, videos, and updates. She was very patient with our shy kitties that usually take a bit to open up. Katlyn will truly take care of your babies like her own.”


“My pup, Henry, absolutely LOVED his stay with Paola. It's so amazing to be able to go out of town and know your dog is being taken care of as if he was their own. I received fun pictures of Henry out on the town. Paola is very responsive and very flexible. Henry was with them for over a week! I would recommend anyone to let Paola watch their dog! Will use again and again! :)”


“Bailey was able to help me out last minute when my previous dog sitter plans fell through. Bailey sent updates and my pup was happy and healthy when I picked her up! Will be booking with Bailey again!”


“Nicole took amazing care of my three month old puppy! She updated me daily and was flexible with his puppy needs. I will definitely be reaching out to Nicole again!”


“Alaina was so lovely to send me regular photos of my pup during his stay and he certainly looked as if he was enjoying himself. Would certainly recommend and look forward to utilizing her again. Thanks Alaina!”


“Mackenzie is absolutely wonderful!!!! She takes amazing care of our girl, spoils her rotten….. and we get tons of photos and updates!! We’ve used her multiple times and will continue to do so!”


“Daniela has been the best sitter for my dog. she made Maui feel so comfortable around her and met all his needs. She was responsive and communicative throughout the whole stay. Would definitely recommend to anybody.”


“Heidi took such great care of Socco. She took him for multiple walks and even got him a treat from the Farmers Market. She was able to make him a comfortable spot by the window since she noticed how much he loved looking outside. She did a great job dealing with his initial anxiousness to eventually making him feel like home.”


“Carla and Logan took care of my 11 month Cavapoo, who had been neutered a week prior, so well as per usual. I appreciate them so much. I think my dog misses them post picking him up. That’s the best sign.”


“Danielle is an absolute lifesaver!! She took care of my dog last minute and even went above and beyond by keeping her overnight when my flight was unexpectedly delayed by five hours. She kept me updated, made sure my pup was comfortable, and showed so much care and attention. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate caregiver for their pet!”
