“Palvi is very nice and did a great job in taking care of Snoopy over 5 days while we were on vacation. Snoopy is shy, anxious by nature & picky eater. Snoopy got comfortable with her family in short time & had good fun time playing hide & seek with her kids & her pet Corgi. We are so thankful that we found Palvi & would definitely recommend her.”

“Great experience with Kyla, it was my first time using the service for my Teddy and I was really nervous to not have him with family who normally watch him and since my daughter was moving same weekend(who normally has watched him) I said let me read reviews and go with it. Kyla kept me informed on Teddy’s progress with pictures and videos and my boy seemed happy to be there. I will use again in future for upcoming trips.”

“Bottom line, yes. Absolutely, we would/will have Nelli watch Romeo again. She has a wonderful family that gave Romeo lots of attention and love and exercise. This made it so much easier for us to enjoy our vacation, knowing that Romeo was so well taken care of. Better still, their Cockapoo played with him too. New best friends.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and set of needs, and I take the time to get to know them and make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. There is a stay at home parent who can provide daily care for your pet. And a family who will be there to provide plenty of attention and love. We have a large yard with plenty of trees and a spacious home for your pet to explore. Your preference of crate or bed or couch is ok with us.

“Sim stepped in on short notice after an initial dog sitter arrangement fell through, providing immediate help during a stressful situation. Sim and his family welcomed our puppy as one of their own, ensuring he felt comfortable and at home. It was so nice to get regular updates, including pictures and videos, throughout the stay. This frequent communication allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation without worry. Sim is a highly dependable and caring dog sitter, ideal for pet owners seeking reliable, communicative, and compassionate care for their dogs.​​​”

“Our experience leaving our dog Marshmallow with Adam was absolutely amazing! He was really responsive and easy to talk to and was even flexible when we had to change our plans. He took really amazing care of Marshmallow, provided great photos + updates, and it sounds like she had a great time while staying with Adam. Will definitely be asking Adam to watch Marshmallow again in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking for a loving, caring place to leave their pets while they're away. Thanks Adam!”

“My babies are absolutely spoiled and we were very hesitant to leave them with a stranger. Denise treated them as her own, taking them out often and giving them the many many cuddles they need for daily survival. I was surprised at how well behaved her young pitbull was with my little ones, too. One of my dogs was having an issue with his coat and she cooked him fresh sweet potato and eggs and he came back looking even better! She has so many toys and blankets and even let them come home with their favorites! My extremely anxious girl loved her from minute one! She never lets people touch her but in all of the photos Denise sent there my dog was, right by her side!! She gave them bandanas to match their personalities and im so glad my pups had a vacation of their own while we were away! Would definitely recommend her!!”
