“Shannon was responsive, kind, and flexible. I had to add 2 more nights unexpectedly for which she happily accepted. She also sent photos and videos so I could rest knowing my senior dog was being taken care of. Will book again!”
“Amy and Justin are fantastic dogsitters. Right away from their meet n greet/interview you can see that they are committed to providing the best, personalize care for your pup. Lots of photos, great communication and details of the stay. Clover seemed to fit right in with their household. She even received a sweet handmade card from their oldest child that said, "I love Clover". 🥹🩷 Will definitely be booking again with them!”

“We had such a great experience with Zhuoya! They took such wonderful care of our dog and treated her with so much kindness and attention. We really appreciated all of the updates, pictures, and photos throughout her stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made everything so easy for us. Most importantly, our dog had such a great time and came home happy! It was clear she felt comfortable and loved while she was there. We would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”
“Left my 2 year old German Shepard puppy with this family for about a week while we went on a cruise. I am incredibly grateful to of found such a fun household to look after her. They sent us photos of her cuddling and taking walks, the updates were lovely. And when we picked her up she was exhausted, which was great for us. We can tell she had a lot of fun while we were on our trip and will definitely book them in the future!”

“Absolutely the best! My dog probably loves being at Alexis's more than his own home :/. She was amazing with last minute changes and I can't say enough positive things. A+!”
“Denise was absolutely amazing! This was my first time ever leaving my Zoey with anyone, so I was definitely a little nervous—but she completely put my mind at ease. She also watched my mom’s new pup, Leo, and handled both of them so well. Denise kept in constant communication, sending pictures and videos that truly reassured me the entire time. I could actually see Zoey go from being a little scared at first to happy and comfortable by the time we picked her up, which meant everything to me. I’m so grateful we found her and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“Abraham took care of Ginger on very short notice, and we are incredibly grateful for his help. He sent us pictures of her, and it was clear that she was having a great time. When Ginger came home, she went straight to sleep, which shows how much fun she had playing all day. Thank you, Abraham! We will definitely be booking again.”

“I messaged Coryn super last minute, literally the day we were leaving asking if she could take our dog for the weekend. She was able to and as always communicated great with us while she watched our Ruby. Highly recommend.”
“I left my German Shepherd, Buddy, with Lori and Mike, and they did an excellent job watching him. They have a nice enclosed backyard where Buddy enjoyed frolicking and exploring. Buddy is an older dog and has some extra needs, including medications, and all his needs were well taken care of. Buddy came home happy and mellow as usual. I will definitely use their services again should I need them.”
“Hong was great! My shy dog took to her and her other dogs very well. He got the attention he needed, and Hong followed his schedule very well. She sent constant updates with pictures and videos of my boy. I'm definitely going to have Hong watch my dog again.”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ione home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Ione.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Ione sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
