1. Alma Luana C.
“Alma and her husband were great with our dog Ram! They quickly responded to a request to book after our other dog sitter canceled which was greatly appreciated. They sent us a few photos every day, including of him on walks and at the park!”
2. Juli L.
“Barney had a great stay with Juli and Gigi! Juli is very conscientious - this is important because my dog is elderly and his faculties are declining. Barney enjoyed Juli's wonderful backyard and the calm environment of her home. I highly recommend Juli as a dog sitter!”
3. Karen & Hisako N.
“Another great stay with Karen & Hisako. My puppy got a little sick during his stay, but Karen and Hisako took great care of him and kept me up to date. They got him back on his feet and he was happy as could be when I picked him up. Thanks again for such wonderful care!”
4. Karen M.
“Great experience boarding our pup with Karen. It is difficult to find someone you can trust with taking care of your pup where you will be comfortable they will make the right decisions if anything unexpected arises. We are glad we spent the time to find and board with Karen.”
5. Gerardo G.
“Geraldo is great! He took care of our dog for four hours one day, then 24 hours a couple weeks later. Our dog was very happy there. We are planning a trip and think he and his household will be a good fit for our dog for the week we are gone.”
6. Tosca B.
“Tosca and Marco were the absolute best and Kuma really enjoyed his time there. They gave me frequent updates and did so much to make sure he wasn’t anxious at all during his stay. If I need someone to watch Kuma in the future I’ll definitely be looking for them to do so.”
7. Jeff & Beth K.
“Jeff and Beth took AMAZING care of our pup, Penny, during a recent 10-day trip. We got lots of pictures and updates that made it clear Penny was having the time of her life going on walks and hikes, having playtime, and getting lots of cuddles from the whole family. We'll absolutely be booking with Jeff and Beth again!”
8. vinit s.
“As always, our little MacGyver is well cared for and comes back in good spirits from his stay with Vinit. Vinit provides frequent updates that we appreciate. Vinit is flexible, responsive, and easy to schedule. Thank you Vinit 🐾🐾”
9. Emma & Curt B.
“Emma and Curt were kind, reliable, flexible and communicative. They sent multiple reassuring pics of Chase looking content and well-cared for. I will definitely call on them the next time I need a pet sitter!”
10. Radha P.
“Henry loved meeting Radha! Radha is responsive, kind, and obviously good with dogs. Her home and yard are both spacious and clean. We had to cancel our Henry's stay with her at the last minute due to a death in the family, but look forward to Henry getting to stay with Radha another time soon.”
11. Yesica K.
“Yesica was great! Very easy to reach and quick to respond. My dog seemed happy!”

14. Kianna E.
“Loving household with two energetic little ones. I could tell Shelly enjoyed her stay.”
15. Mariola P.
“Mariola is a lifesaver!!! We had to find a sitter for our senior chihuahua and we couldn’t have found anyone better than Mariola!! Our dog found comfort with Mariola and friends staying at her place. With photo updates we knew Dolly was doing well but could tell she would be in amazing hands as soon as we met Mariola. Her caring and loving spirit is easy to feel as soon as you meet her. Will be using her again without a doubt!!”
16. Ashish C.
“Asish and his family took such wonderful care of Mochi! It was a smooth process dropping off and picking up, and Ashish sent us photos and videos every day. Mochi had fun running around Ashish's yard every day, playing with their sweet dog Andy and even joining Diwali celebrations. Mochi came home happy and we are too - so glad that we found Ashish. We will be scheduling again soon!”
17. Welly L.
“Our dogs always seem to be energized(and tired) after staying at wellys. I think their dog gives them a good workout! We always look forward to have them take care of our shepherds.”
18. Luciana V.
“Luciana and Rob are very passionate about dogs and ensured our dogs had a great stay. They are very loving and caring. They are detailed about understanding our dogs history, schedule, feeding, etc. We are so glad we found them! Would highly recommend!!”
19. Michelle K.
“Bowie had a great time staying with Michelle! He was fortunate to share the space with a couple other dogs who he looooved to play with and he came home well exercised and ready to cuddle. I would absolutely recommend staying with Michelle.”
20. Mary C.
“Mary was an amazing dog sitter for Yali! We received multiple updates each day with super cute pictures. We could tell how well Mary cared for him and incorporated him into her routine, taking him on errands and walks all over the neighborhood. She was very considerate during our initial meet and greet, knowing how to introduce herself and her dog to Yali. This helped him feel comfortable and welcome in her home. She was so kind and sweet to Yali and we are looking forward to booking with her again!”
