“Ivette and her husband took really good care of my pup! He was happy and well-fed when he returned home :) They were also very accommodating and sent a lot of photos. Alfie had a great time and we will be booking again in the future.”

“She was really nice and great! She took care of my cat with love and good care. I got a lot of pictures daily and even videos. Definitely I’ll choose her for the next time as well.”

“Always a pleasure with Michael, very good communicator, great attention to detail, no issues with him giving medicine or walking our dog who is leash reactive and can be tough to walk. Thanks again, Michael!”

“Wei Han was wonderful! My pup had such a great time and she even gave her a t-shirt to go home in. I could really enjoy my vacation knowing Sadie was in good hands. I would definitely use her again!”

“Eleanor was such a fantastic sitter for Preston. I had absolutely no worries while he was there and can tell she really loved and cared for him during his stay. He returned home very happy. We are super lucky to have found her!”

“Roman is a spectacular sitter, you couldn’t ask for better! Very communicative and responsive, took great photos and sent lovely updates. My pup had a wonderful time with him and I’d definitely board with him again!”

“Margarita and Cristian were amazing with Milky! They provided daily updates with photos, videos, and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Margarita is incredibly sweet, and Milky looked happy and comfortable in every single picture. I could tell she really enjoyed her stay. I would highly recommend Margarita and Cristian to anyone looking for loving and reliable pet sitters!”

“This was our first time using Rover, and Emily made it such a great experience. She took great care of Lolah from April 1–11 and sent photo updates that made me feel at ease while I was away. Lolah was clearly in good hands. I would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”

“Ian and Clementina were great with Tripp, from taking him to the dog park to letting him join all their errands. I really appreciated the prompt communication and daily photo updates — Tripp was comfortable and rolling over for belly rubs almost instantly with them!”

“Kecia was great for watching my dog for 1 night! I had to book her last minute and she was really responsive and fast to my request. My dog Riley had a great time staying at her place with other dog companions. Would definitely use her again!”

“Meiqi is great! Very communicative and shares updates throughout the day. It gives me a peace of mind knowing that my pup is safe and having fun every time she’s there.”

“This was Brownie’s first long term stay away from us as we went on vacation. Millie kept us in the loop every day and sent us pics letting us know how he was doing. He did great and I was so relieved knowing he was in good hands. Thanks Millie!!”

“Marina and Renata did a great job looking after my pup while I was away for a few days! They were super communicative and sent lots of photos. I would absolutely recommend and I would book them again happily!”

“Iryna and Denys were great with pepper. I know she was well cared for, eating, sleeping, walking and playing lots of ball and cuddling. We were well informed throughout pepper's stay with them with daily pictures and updates. I felt comfortable on my trip knowing she was well cared for and loved.”

“This was Fig’s second stay with Xander. Drop off to pick up was smooth with pictures and updates along the way. Fig was excited to see Xander when I dropped him off which was a good sign. Looking forward using Xander again soon!”

“This was the first time leaving our dog with Adryan and he didn’t disappoint. Scout was obviously well taken care of and Adryan was attentive to her needs and comfortable with her limitations (3 legged). He communicated daily with text and photos and his dog, Atticus, was also a gracious host! We would definitely feel confident leaving Scout there again.”
“Before Symone, we were one of those dog owners who thought we’d never be able to leave our dog. Loki was a pandemic puppy and I work from home full time so he's very attached. Thankfully Symone proved us wrong. She was so patient with his adjustment periods, and sent us constant updates. She also brushed Loki daily and worked with him as his apatite was low. We are so happy we found Symone and will definitely be using her again soon.”

“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”

“Viktorila was amazing! Before booking, we did a meet-and-greet, and I immediately felt at ease. After meeting her, I was confident that my pups would be in great hands. Throughout the stay, she communicated frequently and sent plenty of photos of my fur babies, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. As an added bonus, she even brushed out my puggle, who has been shedding like crazy. I have to say, she did a better job than his groomer! I would absolutely recommend Viktorila to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable pet sitter. I have already booked her again. :)”

Any dog owner knows how anxiety inducing it is to leave their dog with someone new. My partner and I are SO thankful to have found Tina when we needed a last minute sitter for a few days. Upon booking, she was very communicative and reassured us our girl would have everything she needed. The videos and photos we received during our trip proved that we chose the right person. Our dog looked cozy and safe and like she was having the absolute best time. We will absolutely be booking with Tina in the future!

First time utilizing this king of service for my dog. I am very happy with Iliana. She is super responsible and great with dogs, the proof is, my 12 years old cranky baby Sammy. He was happy and relaxed with Iliana. She is a dog lover and Sammy was comfortable with her. Soooo happy I found Iliana to take care Sammy. I recommend her 100%.

Lillian has always been so amazing with Max! I really trust her to take good care of him, and I always feel comfortable leaving Max with her when I’m out of town. She's always so communicative, attentive, and caring toward Max. It puts me at ease knowing he’s with her and her sweet Picasso.

I was nervous leaving my dog for the first time, but Grace made it so easy — regular photo updates, a happy pup, and she even noticed little things about his personality I hadn’t mentioned. Charlie came home relaxed and tail-wagging, which says it all. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like family, look no further — I’ve already booked our next stay!
