“Such a great experience. Our dog was cared for by a wonderful family who treated him like their own. I’m not even sure she missed us—which is the best compliment possible ☺️”
“Liz exceeded all my exceptions when boarding my boy, Bexo! Not only does she provide a "home away from home", but with a stream of photos of Bexo exploring her huge yard and going for walks on the surrounding trails, I really felt like he was getting a vacation of his own. Bexo can take a while to warm up to new people, and doesn't do well with other dogs. While discussing this at drop off, I discovered that Liz is also a trainer with extensive experience working with special needs. This was immediately apparent in the her interactions with Bexo, as she made sure Bexo was conformable with her before I left. She really seem to "hear" him, and I've never seen him take to a stranger so fast. Thanks again Liz! Bexo can't wait until next time.”
“Karina was very nice and communicative….. she took really good care of my Oreo, he came home very happy. I Would highly recommend her to care for your dog.”
“Rochelle touched face everyday and get pictures. She took great care of Winnie and was prompt responding before during and after. I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Yun-Chun and Ao-Chang took great care of Boba! They were extremely accommodating of our requests, and shared pictures and updates once a day. We would love to leave Boba again with them!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we got very lucky with choosing Lorena. She and her family made us feel so welcome and was so good with Charli in making her feel at home. It was comforting knowing that Charli was in good hands.”
“Isabella and Gui were the best hosts! Bobo truly had his own vacation in form of dog parks and couch snuggles. Your pup would be lucky to be cared by them!”
“I am thankful I found Romy through Rover- leaving your baby with someone is never easy.Romy was super communicative and we established trust instantly. Max enjoyed his stay there and this mommy got multiple updates and pictures to put my anxiety at rest-thank you Romy.”
“My dog had a great time with Masumi’s family while I was out of town for three weeks. She was such a good caregiver for my dog. She also gave a detailed update everyday. Their dog Apple was also a very good friend with my dog. I would be booking with Masumi for my next trip too.”
“Sheena took great care of my dog, Uno. She handled introductions between Uno and her own dog really well. She updated me with photos, and Uno looked like he was having a great time. It was clear he was in good hands and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Sheena to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter.”
“Philip was exceptional at watching our puppy Charlie. While we were gone, he’d send us pictures of Charlie, my kids loved seeing him while we were gone over two weeks. He took him on walks, played with him and let him lounge on his couch together. Very last minute I asked if Philip would be okay administrating medications to our dog that he needed and he was very flexible and had no issues doing so. Our go to guy for future needs. So grateful for honest and kind people like Philip who will treat your pet as their own family member. Charlie is the happiest I’ve ever seen him, truly.”
“Dymtro and Katie were absolutely wonderful with Bronny. They followed his food and medication schedule and kept everything organized. Bronny has a detailed routine, and they handled it with care and attention. They sent us photos daily. We’re grateful for them and would absolutely trust them with Bronny again. Highly recommend!”
“Michelle and Brian were great with our 4 month old pup. They sent regular updates and were very easy to communicate with. Our pup came home tired and happy!”
“We had such a great experience. I needed to book at the last minute when something unexpected came up, and Fiona took such great care of Mochi for two days. Our schedule was a little tricky with a late drop-off and pick-up, and I was even running behind, but she was incredibly flexible and understanding. I really appreciated how accommodating she was. Fiona’s kids were also so sweet with Mochi, and I’m so thankful for all the love they gave her. It really sounds like Mochi had a wonderful time, and I would definitely book with them again.”
“Julie (aka SJ) is wonderful. I have an older, somewhat neurotic little dog who I thought only had eyes for me, but when I picked him up he didn’t want to leave, he has a new love! Super communicative, above and beyond - she’s the best.”
“We have been taking Norman to darlayna since 2021. She is truly the greatest. She treats our dog like a king. She is communicative, responsive and flexible. Above all, she deeply loves animals. I will always send Norm there.”
“Royce had his first stay with Qiaohui and her husband, and start to finish, it was an outstanding experience. We appreciated their communication, pictures and videos during his stay. He was relaxed, had fun with his new buddies and was clearly treated like part of their family. 5 ⭐️”

Ella loved staying with Matthew and his partner! She normally gets stressed in new environments - but she came back happy and like she had a great time. I really appreciate that they only take 1 dog at a time, have a fenced yard and were communicative with regular photos and updates every day. Would definitely re-book for our future trips
Dani took exceptional care of Pepper, as she always does. She made sure Pepper received her meals and supplements on schedule, took her on daily walks, and gave her lots of love, attention, and cuddles. Pepper absolutely loves staying with Dani and Ama and is always excited to see them. It's such a comfort knowing she's in such caring hands.
Lauren took amazing care of our dachshund, Fig! I think Fig was a little sad that she was leaving to be honest. Lauren sent daily updates and photos, and was super responsive. Also was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for taking great care of her!
Joyce was a wonderful person to work with. My dog Mika was very calm and happy to meet us when we returned, meaning she had a good time. Joyce's updates and photo's were most welcoming and gave me more peace of mind while I was away. I appreciate her kindness and love for the dogs in her care (and her very sweet children:)). I highly recommend Joyces' services to anyone. I look forward to having her watch Mika again in the future.
We appreciate the love and care that were given to our precious Emma. Ziyan went through great lengths to make sure she understood Emma's needs prior to her boarding, and we are so grateful for her attention to detail. Emma had a great experience during her stay bonding closely with Ziyan and doing well with their dog Amber. We loved getting regular updates and pictures. We will definitely be booking with Ziyan again in the future!
Stephanie’s place was the perfect first sleepover destination for our sweet Bizzy. She was so kind and caring, and her two pups got along great with our girl’s high energy. Stephanie sent text updates & photos, making us feel super comfortable with how things were going. We couldn’t have found a sweeter sitter.
Natalia was so great at taking care of Tofu while we were out of town!! She was communicative and sent a toooon of pictures, I had no doubt that his stay was going well, and it was so nice to see that she spent a lot of time just playing with him and giving him attention. She was so kind and professional, I’d definitely book her again!
Kellie over delivered on every level and I’m so lucky to have found her. Her positive energy, attention to detail regarding routine and instructions, and genuine love towards our dog was amazing. She was so communicative before, during, and after her stay I never had to wonder how things were going and if she and our pup were doing ok. On top of that, the house was spotless when we came home which made coming back to our pup even better. She’s such a wonderful and caring person and we will absolutely reach out to her right away next time we need dog care. Thank you Kellie for being exceptional!
Our dog Filson always has the best time at Joann’s! We are repeat clients and have the best peace of mind when she’s taking care of our pup. Her house and backyard are an excellent destination for playtime with her sweet Golden Retrievers. She’s always kind, responsive, and flexible. Highly recommended!!
