1. Michael & Lara G.
“Thank you, Michael and Lara, for again taking such good care of our boy Dexter. He had such a great time he was hesitant to leave...lol! He is now napping, happy and worn out from doggie play.”
2. Maritza J.
“Maritza did a great job with our furbabies! She kept us updated with daily photos and notes on how our babies did during their stay. She also kept up our normal routine so the little ones didn’t pick up any bad habits. Our furry ones had a great time and can’t wait to stay with Maritza again! :)”
3. Jennifer U.
“The absolute best!! Charlie gets soooo excited to see her. She made his 1st birthday so special for him. Her family is truly like his 2nd family. She keeps me up to date on what he is up to daily and is the sweetest person.”
4. Karina B.
“Karina was awesome with our dogs, Beasley and Buddy. Beasley is a nine year old mixed breed rescue and she is used to being a little princess. Judging from the pictures that Karina sent, Beasley was in her happy place. Buddy is a 2-1/2 year mix who was raised as a puppy during COVID and didn’t get much of a chance to socialize with other dogs. Karina did a great job of making Buddy feel at ease when meeting the other boarding dogs. Karina did an excellent job with our pups and we highly recommend her. Will book again the next time we are in Long Beach-Anaheim area.”
5. Matthew B.
“First time using Rover and Matthew was awesome! I was a little nervous because my dog hasn’t spent a ton of time with other dogs but he got along great with Matthew’s golden retriever. Matthew sent texts and photos throughout which helped put my mind at ease. Great experience overall. Thanks!”
6. Connie A.
“Connie was AMAZING! She kept me up to date with the dogs! She walked them and made them feel comfortable! I highly recommend her! She was a great dog sitter! Thank you Connie!”
7. Lorraine H.
“She took our pup in very last minute and took amazingggg care of him. She also provided updates/photos regularly.”
8. Jo Tom B.
“Jo is amazing. She took care of my dog like he was her own pet. She has 2 other fur babies but they get along well with Noodles, maybe because they are the same breed so that helps. Noodles need very minimum care but Jo went above and beyond to give him all the attention that he deserved. She got him chewing tooth brush, vitamins, and toppers without us asking. She is extremely good with updates and photos. Even though we traveled oversee but we get a few updates with photos with a short message, this help us knowing he's in good care. She makes sure he get his long walk and exercise with her. She has a good size back yard for him to roam around as well. I will 1000% using her as our forever dog sitter for sure. I'm very thankful for her thoughtfulness and warmth toward Noodles and our family.”
9. Donald and Lorraine O.
“Don and Lorraine have cared for our little pup a few times and they always take such great care of her! We appreciate the updates that keeps us informed of how much fun she is having and how well she is taken care of. They are also very responsive, which is really great!”
10. Marlo M.
“This is our second time boarding our sweet poodle mix rescue with Marlo. My dog was so happy to arrive back at Marlo’s place and was at ease like visiting a good friend or family member. She was boarded with another larger dog and Marlo watched them closely and they got along just perfectly. I felt my dog was very safe and secure in Marlo’s hands and having a blast while we were away. Gets way more attention, walks and play time than if she were boarded at a kennel and my dog loves it. Will definitely board with Marlo again when the time comes. Thank you Marlo!”
11. Christina L.
“Christina was a great host to Butterscotch! She sent many pictures and videos. I could tell that Butterscotch enjoyed her time there and she played with her dogs too which was great to see. I will definitely be booking Christina again the next time we need a sitter.”
12. Jeimy V.
“Jeimy is wonderful she did great with Jack our 4month old puppy, he was rambunctious and she did awesome giving him extra attention and care. We appreciated her detailed updates and beautiful pictures it felt great knowing Jack was safe and happy in our absence. We defined would and (definitely will) use her services again.”
13. Joanna V.
“Joanne is by far one of the best sitters we’ve had. Our pupper Mira unfortunately started her heat cycle right before our scheduled time and Joanne was super helpful. It’s our first time handling our dog in heat and Joanne had tips and tricks on how to make it easier for Mira and ourselves. She sent us so many pictures of Mira while she was there and I honestly think Mira forgot about us for a bit during her vacation. Lol. So glad we found her, will definitely be booking again!”
14. Jalesia D.
“Jalesia is an all around great person! I have watched her around her own dog and she helps to take great care of him. I also own a dog who can be skittish at times but she quickly warmed up to Jalesia when they were first introduced to each other. I would trust Jalesia to take care of my dog with no worries at all! She is a very responsible, caring, and compassionate person who pays great attention to detail. Which is important when it comes to taking care of animals and knowing their specific needs.”
15. Laura P.
“Laura took great care of our dogs. She sent pictures and routine updates. I could tell from the photos my dogs were comfortable, happy and getting lots of love. Laura was incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed and we had to pick up our pups later then expected. I would definitely leave my pups with Laura again. Highly recommend Laura’s services!”
16. Angie B.
“We have been lucky to have our 5 year old Maltipoo board with Angie twice in the past 3 months. She is professional and very thoughtful. She provides reassurance with photos and videos which gives us an additional peace of mind. I know my dog is in good hands by his predictable behavior after we pick him up; he remains happy and social, whereas he has shut down and isolated himself after his past stays at pet hotels. I highly recommend Angie to all pet parents.”
17. Amie P.
“This was our first time leaving our BoBo. Amie has made his stay very comfortable and such a loving environment. Will definitely rebook in the future. She provided daily pictures and kept us updated regularly.”
18. Marilyn & Eyon & Erilynn a.
“my pup feels all the love and I’m sure every time that he will be taken care of and cuddled. I appreciate the sitters always taking that extra step!”
19. Ximena P.
“Thank you so much for taking care of our furry love ones. They were so happy Buster didn’t want to leave. I am very happy to have found you will be first on my list for the next time.”
20. Noel S.
“This is our second time having our special lady stay with Noel and I’m so glad we found her. Noel is great at communicating and just all around cares. Definitely going to use Noel again next time we’re both out of town.”
