Gena did a wonderful job watching after Oatmeal! She provided amazing communication throughout the entire time, from our initial Meet and Greet to pick up. The daily updates and pictures Gena provided really put us at ease as this was the first time we boarded Oatmeal. We also really appreciated Gena requesting detailed care instructions. We would definitely recommend Gena for pet care!

Gena was an excellent pet sitter. She was very responsive to messages and provided daily updates with pictures. Our Yuki was well cared for, receiving plenty of walks and playtime. I felt completely at ease knowing Gena was trustworthy and even asked me to write down on all my instructions with regards to our fur baby’s care. . Yuki was happy and healthy when we picked him up. Highly recommend Gina for her professionalism and care. And would definitely use her service again. October 10-16, 2025

I could tell from the first time we met that Gena loved the dogs she cares for. This was the first overnight for our 8 mo old pup but I felt comfortable leaving her with Gena. Gena sent me updates and pics through the day. I will definitely use her again.

I can't say enough good things about Gena! She took incredible care of my senior dog, Japan, while I was away for a week. As any pet parent of an older dog knows, it takes a special kind of patience, attentiveness, and kindness to care for a dog with aging needs — and Gena exceeded all my expectations. Japan has some mobility issues and needs medication once a day, and Gena handled everything with so much care and compassion. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell my baby girl was relaxed and happy — which is a huge relief. When I picked Japan up from Gena's house, she was calm, clean, and clearly well-loved. I would trust Gena again in a heartbeat, and I highly recommend her to anyone — especially if your pup needs that extra bit of TLC. Thank you for treating Japan like family!
