7. Jieun B.

“I recently had Jieun look after my dog and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure Skippy was well cared for and comfortable. Skippy can be reserved with new people, but he quickly warmed up to Jieun. Communication was another standout aspect of the stay. I received regular updates and great photos of Skippy having a good time, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that Jieun genuinely cared about Skippy’s well-being. The level of attention and care Skippy received was outstanding. I highly recommend Jieun if you need someone to care for your pet. Skippy and I are both incredibly grateful for the exceptional stay!”

13. Julius G.

“Julius and family took good care of our dog. Julius is super-responsive and sent several cute pictures of the visit. It looked like everyone got along well and were very active. Our dog came home exhausted, which is a good thing. We also needed to adjust the end time a little bit, and Julius was very accommodating of the last minute change.”


14. Bruce B.

18. Lisa & Jason B.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 20 years, and caring for animals is truly a passion of mine. I currently share my home with two sweet pups—Hope, our gentle Great Dane, and Abby, our playful Labradoodle. They’re not just pets—they’re family. We have a large, backyard that gives dogs plenty of space to run, play, and relax. I’m home most of the time during the summer, so your dog will get lots of attention, snuggles, and care throughout the day. Plus, with six kids in our home, there’s always someone ready to play and share the love! Whether your dog loves fetch, belly rubs, or just lounging in the sun, they’ll feel right at home here. I am a teacher so I am home during the summer. During the school year, our dogs are crated from 8-2. I am off on the weekends. I would love to care for your pet! I care for pets in my home. Our dogs are treated like family. They receive lots of attention and love for us and our children.




19. Jill M.


“Jill was wonderful! She accommodated us at the last minute when we had to add time to Zoe's stay to go to a family funeral out of town. Zoe had a fabulous time! Although she is still a hyper energetic puppy, Jill was patient and fun and great to her. They played and went for walks and hung out. We've already scheduled for another stay for Zoe with Jill and her family.”




20. Katherine B.


“Katherine was great! She was attentive and flexible! It was clear that Marcello enjoyed his stay with her. I felt comfortable knowing that he was in good hands!”
