“My dog Quigley had an amazing weekend with Diana and Scott. They took him to lots of fun places and we’re sure to update me every day! They were very professional and I look forward to using them for my pet care needs in the future!”


“Penny looks like she had a nice time staying with Adam and we would use his services again (if he's available). He provided updates when requested and was transparent about an altercation Penny had with another dog (who surprised her). I recommend Adam as a sitter!”


“Undram was great! She provided regular updates and was always very responsive. Our dog was obviously in good hands and we plan to use her services in the future.”



“Megan and her kids were great with Rosie! They made her feel right at home. She loved her goodie bag they sent her home with as well. Thank you so much!”


“I can’t say enough about Jorge and Lake. They cared for Anu like she was family, even helping us with an extended stay over the holidays when my son unexpectedly couldn’t take care of her. She also had a medical issue that they helped her with while she was in their care. We are so grateful for the love they gave to Anu, who was depressed after we left. She missed them and Lizzie so much. And thank you for including her for Christmas!”


“Laura and Vladimir were wonderful! They are so warm and true dog lovers. They took such good care of our puppy. They sent pictures and updates everyday. We will definitely use them again! Can’t say enough positive things about them. Highly recommend.”


“She was very good on taking care of my dog was gone for ten days sending video and pictures every day I would definitely recommend and come back later thank you Ariel”


“We were so thankful to Marcos for taking good care of our pup and reassuring us that he was settling into his fun week of summer camp! Marcos sent pictures and updates and it looked like our pup had a fun week making new friends in Marcos' backyard, which is basically a dog paradise!”


“Monika was a comforting and dear communicator. I got lots of text and photo updates, and frankly, my dog didn't want to come back home to his single dog life- he was in heaven the four days he spent with her and her other visiting dogs as well as her precious Collie, Peanut.”


“Tammy was the best taking care of Vinnie!! She was available last minute when I couldn’t get anyone else to sit him and was very responsive, which I really appreciate. Vinnie got to play with the other dogs at the house and run off some energy. Will definitely be using Tammy again!!”


“We had a great experience with Corey! I did not have the chance to meet Robert. But they took excellent care of my dog zoey. She has special needs (diapering) which they handled no problem and were super responsive. Would be happy to use them again!”


“I had a last minute emergency and had to leave town and my pup behind. Thankfully, Rachel and Vincent were accommodating and flexible! I got plenty of communication with questions and updates throughout the day, putting me at ease. Thank you so much!”


“Great sitter! Very attentive and communicative! Tino got along great with the other dogs and kids, and had a wonderful time! Would highly recommend and book again!”


“Jessie was calm and happy upon pickup. Brian took good care of him. This was our second time leaving Jessie with Brian and we would do it again.”


“Doug and Debbie were incredible hosts for our dog, Stella, while our family was away for a week. Stella can be slow to warm up to new people, but thanks to their gentle care, she quickly felt at ease. We had a few unexpected flight cancellations, which required Stella to stay an extra day, and Doug and Debbie happily accommodated her without any issues. We're so grateful that Stella had a safe, loving place to stay, and she especially loved their beautiful backyard patio. Will definitely be re-booking for any other family vacation!”


“Merrick was great for my pup and i. We were able to drop her off after a single meet and greet for a couple of weeks and based on daily pics and vids, she had a great time. She was taken care of, had another pup to play out in the backyard with as well as play tug of war. I will definitely book with Merrick again!”


“Laura & Charles are the best dog sitters ever! They have watched our dog Grant for several times over the past year, and he’s so happy and content. They are very communicative and you can tell they notice little details about your dog and care for him. They know Grant’s behaviors and characteristics, and are great with giving him medicine when he needs it. He loves to play, and they have room inside and outside that is safe for him and other dogs to have a great time. They’ll also let your dogs watch TV with them on the couch. There are so many good things to say, we will be using them again and again!”


“Kristina stepped in last minute to help us with Poncho and was so great about communicating and sending pictures. Poncho clearly had a great time. Thank you for your help Kristina!”


“Dear Eloisa Eloisa did amazing job taking care of our prizest possession! Her continuous updates and pictures made us feel very very confident in our ability to make Oliver feel as comfortable as possible. We would recommend her 100x over to anyone. If he could speak, I’m sure he would speak highly of her and your family he got to enjoy. We appreciate all the consideration she gave us on all of Oliver’s unique needs as a dog (I.e diapers) and his unique comforts, and especially on our unexpected flight delay during pickup. Choose Eloisa for her services and you will be overjoyed.”


“Rima is so kind and patient. We received photos of our pups daily and they seemed to have a small adjustment but in the end they seemed like they enjoyed themselves. Rima is flexible and she made the process smooth and effortless. Thank you, Rima!”
