“Anthony!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.. so much taking care of my baby! I was so worried prior to my trip as I was not able to find a sitter and then I saw your profile on the last day before my flight and I am so happy I did. You and your family did an amazing job in taking care of Marley. And I am happy he found a new friend…Bentley! You sent me videos and pics daily and that gave me peace of mind that Marley was safe and having an amazing time. I will be booking again. Again, thank you! !”

“Sara was very good about replying to our texts prior to meeting her and also while our dogs were staying with her. We received daily updates and photos which was very comforting to us being away on a trip. The dogs certainly enjoyed their stay and the loving attention they got during their stay. They also had lots of exercise and playtime. Our dogs also got along well with Sara's dog, Phil. It's wonderful to have found a responsible and reliable dog sitter in Sara.”

“Dan and Denise were absolutely amazing! The only regret we have is not knowing about them sooner! Our bulldog, Emma, is very playful and every time we board her at our vet, she is kept in isolation away from the other dogs. I could not believe how calm and how fast our Emma socialized with Dan and Denise's dogs. They were so loving and sweet with Emma and sent us videos and messages to update us about how happy she was. I highly recommend using their service! We will absolutely be repeating customers! Emma had a fantastic time running in the huge backyard and socializing!”

“I left my 10-month old puppy with Julia and her family for 5 days and it was the best decision ever! Julia was amazing from the beginning. She reached out, was willing to speak on the phone and we met in person. When we went over for the visit she welcomed us in and really welcomed Oakley as her own. Throughout the day Julia would send message blurbs and pictures to show how the day was going and what my puppy was up to. Seeing the pictures of him so happy was everything I could have hoped for and more! Leaving a dog with a stranger can be scary but Julia made for an easy, relaxing, worry free trip!!! 10000% would book with Julia again!!”


“Trin and her lovely family took wonderful care of our dog Peter. He was well kept, and happy. I could not recommend Trin enough, she was a great sitter and we will be revisiting again!”



“THE BEST!!! Heeyoung was such a delight to work with. She was sending daily pictures or videos of my big baby, and in every picture my dog looked like she was smiling. I was almost afraid she wouldn't want to come home! Such a lovely person, kind and always responded right away when I would text her. Will DEFINITELY book with her again; so glad we met.”


“Nav and her family did an amazing job taking care of our dog once again! They treated him as another one in her family! Nav was very attentive and updated us regularly with videos and photos. I highly recommend Nav for anyone looking for a dog-sitter.”


“Chris watched my dog who has separation anxiety for a couple days. I was so nervous (for all of them) to leave my anxious guy with someone he didn't know especially during a thunderstorm, etc... but everyone made it though and I'm grateful he had another dog he could play with, etc... Thanks Chris and Co.”
