1. Karen M.
“We have a big rescue dog, Lupin, who is nervous around new people and leash reactive/frustrated because he wants to play with every dog he sees, and Karen was fantastic with him. It was very clear at our meet and greet at the park that she knew how to deal with such issues, and knew a lot about dogs and their behavoir. We did a one night trial run to get lupin used to them for longer boarding and they were very kind to him - we have already booked 2 more trips. At our meet and greet, her lovely pup was a marvelous calming influence on our 2 yr old.”
2. Karen & Hisako N.
“My puppy had another great stay with his Asian Aunties! He went on plenty of long walks and came home nice and relaxed. This time, he needed to take some medicine and Karen & Hisako did a great job making sure he took it as prescribed. He can't wait to for his next visit! Thanks for taking such great care of him!”
3. Jennifer L.
“Jennifer was great! She took my cat in last minute and was very accommodating! She has a whole kitty playground at her house that my cat loved every second of. She also has a litter robot box so I didn’t have to bring a separate box/litter which made the exchange easier. She sent soooo many photos and videos that I loved and communicated very well. Jennifer is super sweet & I trusted her well with my cat… Definitely will book again :)”

12. April L.
“Our Mimi had her first overnight with April. Everything went great. April even constructed a ramp so Mimi could go up and down the bed without jumping. She is still in-coordinated after spinal cord surgery. This was meant to be a rehearsal before a 2-week boarding at the end of the month. We are so happy to know Mimi will be in good hands.”

Thank you to Pablo and his wife for providing top-notch care. We appreciate the great communication and flexibility as well.”

“Danielle was awesome! I would highly recommend. This was ours and Chili’s first Rover experience and it went exceptionally well. He loved Danielle and her dogs. He got comfortable very quickly and seemed so happy on hikes with the other dogs. We got tons of updates and photos of chili at doggy camp. Danielle is so experienced and even had recommendations for us on how to train his reactivity.”
