“Cindy was absolutely amazing with our dogs! From the moment we met her, we felt like our pups were in good hands. She sent us lots of pictures and updates which we loved! It was clear they were not only well cared for, but also happy and loved. Knowing they were safe, comfortable, and getting lots of attention made such a difference for us. We’re so grateful we found Cindy and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”

“Our dogs absolutely loved Meri, and so did we! Her communication was excellent both before and during the stay! She was also flexible and easy to work with. She checked in each day and sent pictures. I would highly recommend her. ❤️ Thx Meri!”

“Hermes had a long stay with Kelly, 17 days! Kelly took such good care of him including tick check and wiping his tear marks due to mild allergies. She sent me pictures and updates on Hermes on regular basis and Hermes was definitely a happy dog under her care and playing with her two lovely kids. I will book Kelly again no doubt! Thank you so much Kelly, Hermes loves all three of you!”

“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Edward and Natalia. We had a meet and greet a week prior where they asked a lot of questions and observed Ralphie with their sweet pup, Liz Lemon. I always worry leaving Ralphie with a new Rover. He has been described as “extra” and needs a lot of attention/human presence. Within an hour of dropping him off, I got a note that he is settling in fine with a picture of him cozied up with the family and this eased my mind immensely. They were very responsive when I reached out and had everything ready to go when I picked him up. The biggest testament, however, is Ralphie’s behavior on the drive home. If let’s me know if he didn’t like his stay somewhere, but leaving Natalia and Edward he was calm and well behaved. They deserve this 5-star review and j would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”

“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Masha and her family were awesome! We have a dog that is reactive to other dogs and requires medication. We really appreciate the care and attention they gave our dog. We got updates and pictures letting us know all is well with him and that was very reassuring. We would definitely love to leave him with Masha and her family again.”

“Evan and his wife stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Kobi for the weekend - and not only did they agree, but they were so enthusiastic it felt like I was doing them a favor and not the other way around! Communication was great with check ins during the day and drop off/pick up went smoothly. So grateful to have found them!”

“Cal and Kelly went above and beyond in taking care of my dog while I was away. From the very beginning, they made me feel completely at ease with their warm communication and attention to detail. They sent daily updates, along with the most amazing videos and pictures that truly captured my dog’s happiness and comfort. I could tell they genuinely cared about her well-being and treated her like their own. Their dogs were very friendly and loving. Their dedication and love for animals are clear, and I’m so grateful for the exceptional care they provided. I would 100% recommend Cal and Kelly to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and communicative pet sitters. They’re simply the best!”

“We had an excellent experience with Chad and his family when boarding our somewhat anxious dog. They provided a nice calm environment for him and were communicative and accommodating to his needs. We were able to have peace of mind while away knowing that our pup was safe and secure.”
“Andy was great watching my 2 French Bulldogs at his home. was responsive during my booking and it was easy to coordinate drop off and pick up. He sent lots of photos each day of the stay. I would recommend Andy as a reliable sitter. Thank you!”

“Both of my dogs truly enjoyed their stay with Melissa. They were well cared for and she provided ample updates. I definitely will be working with her again to care for my pups.”

“Alex and Daniel were wonderful to work with! They kindly gave us updates on our dog while she was with them and it really seemed like she warmed up to them quickly. We are so greatful to have met them and we look forward to working with them in the future.”

“Sonia is very communicative and sent lots of photos- I was confident that my cat was happy and well taken care of during my trip. I know my cat will love to go back to Sonia’s next time I travel!”

“Edgar was able to provide a loving and non-hectic environment for our older dog. The environment is spacious and accommodating. His dog is great with other dogs, and they were able to coexist wonderfully. He was able to accommodate last minute from another sitter needing to cancel last minute (sorry, thank you), but I intend to give more notice next time we decide to have Edgar provide care for our dog when we’re away. Thank you again!”

“Brianne and Travis love my dog Ella and she clearly loves them. Ran right up to their house as this was the second time they boarded her. I picked her up relaxed and happy. Great people! Will book again”


“Very great communication and sent a lot of pictures while I was away! Made my girls feel at home and the family was incredibly nice/hospitable. Did not worry at all leaving my girls in their care!”

“I have a great feeling of peace, knowing that my Marcel is being cared for by Elisabeth. She is attentive, loving and gives great care to our dog Marcel. Marcel was right at home with Elisabeth and did not want to leave. It’s important to me that Marcel not be stressed or anxious and she provides that type of calm atmosphere needed. I needed a later time to pick him up and Elizabeth accommodated me and told me not to rush or worry. Marcel was very happy with his long walks! I want to keep her all to myself. She is truly a wonderful person and can be trusted with the care of your special pet.”

Fiorela was fantastic! She took great care of Ralphie, sent me a good amount of pictures which made me feel good that he was in safe and happy. She actually read the entire profile and asked great questions where I had left out details needed to give him the best care she could. All in all, a great experience. I would highly recommend Fiorela and will be requesting her services again in the future.

Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.

Adam and Megan took great care of our dog! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates. Our flight was delayed and they were so flexible and patient! Our dog gets very sad when we leave and he looked incredibly happy the whole weekend with Megan and Adam!

I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Samantha for the two weeks I was away. She made the whole experience personal by sending pics and videos every day, which gave me real peace of mind. I was happy with everything and would definitely recommend her. I would most definitely leave my dog with her again. 🙂🐶🐕🎀

We couldn't be happier with Felisa! This was Sassy's first stay with her, and she was comfortable from the moment they met — which says everything about Felisa's calm, welcoming energy with dogs. Felisa sent pictures every day, so we always knew Sassy was happy and well cared for. Seeing her on shady walks surrounded by green space was such a relief. Sassy looked relaxed and at home the entire time. We'll absolutely be booking with Felisa again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter
