Jennifer took such good care of Archie and his special medical needs. He did not seem stressed at all. She sent me updates multiple times daily. I would highly recommend her.

Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.

Hugo and Julia went above and beyond yet again. They always take such good care of Phil, but this trip was different. While on vacation our return flight was delayed several times, Hugo and Julia were very flexible with the pick up time, then my flight was canceled and they were happy to watch him an extra evening. They are the best on the app.

Aline was amazing! She was very easy to communicate with and kept us updated throughout the entire time. We really appreciated all the photos she sent—they showed how happy and comfortable Coco was. She paid attention to every detail and made sure our baby was safe and happy the whole time. Coco had such a great time with her! I will definitely book Aline again in the future. Thank you so much, Aline!

Briana was wonderful! Very flexible with timing and knowledgable about dog behavior. She has great communication skills and we got a lot of fun photos while we were away. She even gave our big boy a good brushing before we picked him up and he looks great! I think he had a good time away and we will definitely be calling on Briana again when we need a competent, compassionate dog sitter.

Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our older aged GSD. Her retriever got along great with our dog and we were very pleased with the level of care provided for our pup when it came to food accommodations (our pup gets anxious when we leave and struggles to eat sometimes). Needless to say, Sarah went above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the extraordinary care for our dog as well as all of the communication and photos she provided during the stay. Lastly, Sarah was quite flexible and accommodating with meet and greets, drop off times and pickup times. 10/10 and highly recommend! Thank you Sarah!

Nancy met with me a few weeks before Dakota stayed for the night. She is pleasant. Nancy has 2 well behaved scotties. She lives on a dead end street and the exit to her house has a mudroom for extra security that Dakota can not get out of the house unexpectedly. She usually had another small dog there that she was sitting for who was a barker and less behaved than her dogs were calm. I would definately have Dakota stay with Nancy again.

Mary took such good care of my miniature schnauzer who is cautious and shy. She was a great communicator. She sent pictures showing me he was happy and doing well and when I picked him he was as contentedly curled up asleep. I am so thrilled to be able to have Mary sit for him again in the future.

Michael was an absolute lifesaver for our senior pup, Winnie! He went above and beyond, sending daily photos that showed her happily exploring new sniffs. His genuine love for animals truly shines through, and we knew Winnie was in the best hands possible. Thanks to Michael, we returned home to a relaxed and content pup, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone searching for a caring

Adonis was with Julie for a 2 week stay and had a blast! He quickly settled into her house and almost immediately took ownership of protecting her from all squirrels and other animals outside the house. He loves to play and Julie was awesome about sending us pictures of his stay with her. She was great with his food and even went the extra mile to feed him alternate food when he was not eating one day. Adonis bonded with Julie and we would love to have him stay with her again!

It was a great first experience leveraging Elaine’s services. We got proactive updates on how my pet was doing everyday. She took great care and used to send pics of the stay and outings. We found a reliable second home for our pet when we need to travel.

Ashwariya is AMAZING!! 🐾 We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dog, Simba. From day one, she made us feel so comfortable and reassured, and it was clear Simba was in the best hands. He had the BEST time with her, her family, and her dog—he came home so happy, relaxed, and full of love. You can really tell how much she cares about the dogs she watches. She kept us updated with frequent messages and the cutest photos, which we truly appreciated and looked forward to every day. It gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would 1000% recommend Ashwariya to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and loving dog sitter. Simba can’t wait to go back!! 🐶❤️
