2. David M.
“Dave did a great job taking care of my two dogs. It was their first time boarding not at a kennel and unlike when they come home from the kennel they were happy and unstressed. You can tell that Dave has a real love of dogs!”




3. Wanda R.

“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”

12. Anna W.

“Anna is absolutely our dream sitter for our very playful and energetic border collie, Atlas. She and her husband gave Atlas so much love and attention everyday. Anna voluntarily sent us many lovely photos and videos of our pup as well as detailed updates daily. They loved Atlas as if she was their own, and we could tell how happy Atlas was staying with them. We felt at ease every day knowing that Atlas was under the care of such a wonderful and caring couple. We believe Atlas was on her own vacation! Thank you again. Atlas cannot wait to see them again. 😄”


13. Jason W.

“Jason is the best dog sitter! He gave us regular updates with pics which put me and my family at ease while we were on vacation. His dog Noah is so sweet and got along great with my two pups too. I would 100% recommend Jason!”

“Great sitter, had my dog for 8 days and he was well taken care of and because of her work he got to hang out with lots of other dogs all day! He had a blast! 10/10 would recommend.”


16. Zwany & Leandro C.


“Wonderful experience boarding my dog with them! Zwany was flexible with scheduling, asked a lot of important questions, really wanted to get to know my dog, and provided updates/pictures.”


17. Oscar m.

“Oscar took great care of our dog, Bella! They were very communicative (+ sent lots of photos and videos of our girl having the best time). The first night Bella had some tummy problems, and they took care of her and communicated throughout the day. She was better by day two! I can’t speak highly enough! Will definitely have Oscar watch Bella again soon!”


18. Kevin L.

“Kevin did an excellent job with Cornelius. Corny was a part of the family. I knew he was safe and happy, which gave me peace of mind while I was on my trip.”


19. Ashley S.

“Ashley was terrific. I am a highly anxious dog mommy and I felt that Bertie was in safe, loving, and skilled hands. Ashley’s two dogs couldn’t have been sweeter or more welcoming to our pup, either. Ashley has a great backyard that’s well fenced and she sends lots of pictures and videos. We will definitely be returning for future dog-sitting needs. Thanks, Ashley!”


20. Casey C.

“Casey took great care of our dog! We are so appreciative of how she looked after him. Knowing he was in good hands gave us such peace of mind!”
