“Donna was a great host for Moppet. My dog was welcomed immediately upon entering Donna's home. Donna was also flexible with my pickup time as I had a flight delay due to weather. I would absolutely rebook with Donna next time.”
“Benedict & Christina were really wonderful to have watch my little senior dog. When Benedict did the meet & greet, he was inquisitive about how to best care for Jean Luc, his routine & habits, etc. They sent great photos and updates, and were always quick to respond. Highly recommend & look forward to my next booking with them!”
“Our 1-year-old mini Aussie, Woby, had a wonderful time staying with Jifu while we were away for over a week. It was our first boarding experience, and we couldn't have asked for a better home for him. Jifu was incredibly attentive, providing us with constant updates with photos and videos. We were so relieved to see how happy, relaxed and healthy Woby was in their care. He loved running and playing tennis balls in the backyard, and chewing on toys indoors when it gets too hot outside. Jifu's super friendly dog, Joki, was also a great companion. We're so grateful for Jifu's reliability and kindness, and we'll definitely return for future boarding needs.”
“Here's a revised version of your review: --- We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Rhiannon for taking such excellent care of our senior dog. This time, he experienced some separation anxiety, but Rhiannon went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and relaxed. As frequent travelers, it's a huge relief to know that our "senior citizen" is in such capable and caring hands. We will definitely be asking Rhiannon to look after him again on our next trip.”
“Once again, Lavanya took great care of our dog, and she kept us updated with photos. She was also very accommodating of our change in plans, and was very kind, even though it was a lot of extra effort for her.”
“Olga was wonderful! She shared so many videos and photos of Juneau while he was staying with her and was always super responsive. She took Juneau on lots of fun adventures and he came back to us very happy and very tired :)”
“Nina and Leo were so great with my Quincy. Quincy is a rescue from Korean meat farm and has some issues such as separation anxiety and leash aggression. Nina and Leo were very understanding, seemed extremely experienced, and took great care of Quincy - they even bought him a stuffed toy that he loves and plays with everyday! They provided me with daily updates and photos while I was out of the country for 12 days. I will definitely use them again.”
“Margaret is a true dog person and I felt at ease leaving my girl in her care. She does an excellent job of managing her pack and making sure all dogs are safe and comfortable. My dog is ~80 lbs and has her quirks, so I can't leave her in the hands of just anyone. I am so glad to have found a home environment that my dog is comfortable in while I am out of town and will certainly book with Margaret again.”
“Our favorite Rover dog-sitters moved, but they recommended a new family that took excellent care of our two small pups while we were away. MinJun & Mi Ran P. had a lovely home with a fenced in patio that was very safe and comfortable for our dogs. They were able to feed two finicky eaters, take them for walks, and share many photos and videos of our dogs while we were away, so we knew what they were doing. The bonus was another dog was also boarding and our younger pup had so much fun playing that she is still tired today! Will 100% choose MinJun & Mi Ran for boarding again next time we need it.”
“Excellent communication and updates! Was so happy to see Carmelo having a wonderful time - provided me with plenty of reassurance while I was gone. Carmelo looks forward to staying with Christopher again!”
“Marivel did a fantastic job taking care of our puppy, Anna. She sent us regular pictures and videos and kept us updated. So we didn't have to worry about our puppy on our vacation.”
“Cesar is amazing with my dog. Cesar is Always available and flexible to watch my friend, Dro. He sends the best photos while I am away and they seem to always come rIght on time when I’m missing my dog. Dro loves going and as long as Cesar is available, I’ll always have him watch my pup. If you are considering having Cesar watch your dog, just know that they will be in great hands!”
“Our dog, Stan, does not easily warm up to people outside our family. We adopted him when he was 8 weeks old, and while he is well-socialized with other dogs, he remains very timid around new people. Before boarding Stan with Kimmy and Jesse, we had used the same sitter on two separate occasions, each for a week. During those stays, Stan always hid under her coffee table and never let her get close to him. However, with Kimmy and Jesse, the experience was completely different. On day four, Kimmy sent us pictures of herself petting Stan—a huge milestone for him. By day five, she was even able to take him on a walk around the neighborhood. Day by day, Stan grew more comfortable in their care. Seeing our timid dog so well cared for made us incredibly happy! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring couple or a more loving environment to board Stan. We are so grateful and look forward to boarding him with them on our upcoming spring break!”
About: I offer a calm, personalized environment by caring for only a few dogs at a time—never more than three—so each pup gets plenty of attention. I have experience with senior dogs and dogs who need special routines, and I’m comfortable reinforcing training or providing gentle, senior-friendly care. My backyard is fully fenced for safe, comfortable outdoor play, and my own mellow, friendly dog makes a wonderful companion for visiting pups. I send regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your dog is happy, relaxed, and in good hands. I work from home, with a flexible schedule, so I’m around all day to hang out with the pups, give them potty breaks, and sneak in some playtime between work tasks. We usually start and end the day with a walk, and in between there’s plenty of supervised backyard playtime. In my home, dogs enjoy a balanced mix of structure, play, and plenty of affection. I keep a calm, relaxed atmosphere and follow each pup’s routine as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to favorite toys and nap spots—so they feel right at home. Dogs have regular potty breaks and safe outdoor play in my fully fenced backyard, and I’m always close by to supervise. I host no more than three dogs at a time, ensuring each one gets individual attention, along with companionship from my mellow, friendly resident dog.
“I had a great experience with Siobhan and Guillermo! They were very accommodating and quickly responded to my messages. From the pictures they sent, it was clear my dog Lil had a lot of fun and was very comfortable! Thank you again ?❤️”
“Jamyl and his family took care of Mira our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel very well. I will be a repeat customer. He kept us abreast with pictures on a regular basis and Mira looked very happy”
“Our dog (Pepper) loved her stay with Olga. Pepper was with Olga for 10 days and seemed to love every minute. Olga sent us pictures every day and kept us up to speed on how Pepper was doing (great!). This put our minds at ease during our trip -- Pepper is a "COVID pet" and had never really been without using the last two years. No troubles, not separating anxiety - at least for Pepper! Olga did a great job making all of us comfortable.”
“Fang is an amazing sitter! She is very communicative and sends photos, videos and updates throughout the day and night. She did an amazing job watching Four. It’s always hard to leave your fur baby, but I can tell that Four had a great time and enjoyed all the love and attention.”
“Christina was a great sitter for my pup. Easy to communicate with, great location, regular walks and updates, and very friendly. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter, and will definitely book again!”
“Manli went above and beyond the call of dog sitting. She worked with Bosco to get over some of his "new to the home" nerves (growling over food) and kept in constant touch with me about issues that arose (like when Bosco's food ran out and when he was sick). Manli's home vibe is very relaxed and comfortable, and she understands dog behavior. 10/10: would ask Manli to watch Bosco again.”
