“Ashley has a heart of gold and I felt as if my puppy was with family. She came home tired from a good day of affection and play after a great day and I am looking forward to her next stay! Thank you Ashley and family! ♥️”

“Derek took exceptional care of my pup. She got to go for walks and play. She was happy and content when she came back home. Communication is excellent. Derek is also very accommodating to scheduling and care needs. Best care we’ve had for my pup. Highly recommend.”


“Monica was absolutely amazing with my dog. This was my first time leaving her with another person & the constant communication with messages & photos really brought me a peace of mind. She also gave me some leash training trips that we have been consistent working on & improving! I will definitely be using her services again ❤️”


“Marsha is the absolute best! From the time we inquired about her services through the end of our dogs’s stay, Marsha made us feel comfortable and confident that our dog would be well-taken care of! She was so attentive and understanding to our dog’s unique personality, gave frequent updates, and truly made our dog feel at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter/environment for our dog. We will absolutely be repeat customers!”


“Morgan is absolutely terrific! And her dog Attitcus is also a good playmate too! Morgan is very communicative— she provides tons of updates (both in photos and in writing) so that you know your pup is in good hands! She’s very responsive in her messages throughout the day. You’re never left wondering how your little furry is doing. She’s very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. She cares about your dog and its wellbeing in that it’s having a fun time at her place. She even dealt superbly with a surprise diarrhea situation that our puppy had. I’d highly recommend Morgan to others!”


“Tommy came in clutch for me when I needed last minute doggy daycare for my pup Deebo. He is super responsive and willing to accommodate for your pet. He consistently sent me updates throughout the day and made me feel at ease.”


“Emma had a great time at Patricia's house. She was very relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Patricia lives a very short drive from the Costa Mesa Fairgrounds so if you are attending an all-day event there and don't want to have to worry about leaving your furry friend to fend for themselves all day, I highly recommend leaving your pet with Patricia. She is knowledgeable about dogs and very conscientious, having gone the extra mile to ensure that Emma was not able to get to any other animal's food (since Emma has food allergies). Patricia also texted me pics during the day of Emma enjoying her walk, which further helped to make my day more enjoyable by putting my mind at ease. I will not hesitate to book with Patricia again the next time I'm in the area!”


“Mai was fantastic! The communication was top tier! I got so many photos and even a video during the day! I was worried because my dog has a ton of puppy energy and can be very overwhelming. But Mai was an absolute pro and handled Stella with ease! Stella came home one very tired and happy pup! We can wait for our next stay with Mai!”


“This is the second time we have used Hector to care for our fur babies. As always he was so kind and loving. Above all he was very communicative and kept us in the loop throughout their entire stay. I love being updated on their walks and the “ and now we r napping and watching the news” messages. Thank you again hector. We appreciate you :)”


“Nichole was able to take my dog for a day visit on short notice. Her dog was very sweet and very excited to meet me and my dog. Nichole replied to all my messages promptly and was accommodating when my pickup time changed. My dog seemed happy and tired when I picked her up, so seems like she had a fun day!”


“Rebekah is great! She accommodated our work schedule and was able to watch our dog earlier than previously expected on short notice. She is very communicative and treats our dog like her own!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for about 5 years and my love for them has not changed whatsoever. I’m always excited to meet new friends especially when they feel the same way I always care for my cat everyday and sometimes my cousin’s dog if I go to her apartment next door. Taking care of pets is important for me because they are always there for you when you need them most I have a fence in my house to keep any pet from danger and if an animal is not friendly with others my cat has his own room.

“Angie was the perfect fit for our dog! We spent the day at Disneyland knowing that our pup was in good hands. We love the fact that Angie works from home. She was able to send us photo updates throughout the day, take him on walks, and give him all the snuggles he needed as he was the only animal in her care. What a lucky dog! This was comforting for us and allowed us to completely enjoy our time at the park. Thank you, Angie!!”


“It was my dog’s first time staying with other dogs. But Aileen made sure they get along by meet and greet. She was updating me with frequent photos and gave a piece of mind! She was very cooperative on scheduling a pickup and a drop off! Glad our fur baby had a good time with her family! I will definitely come back to her next time!”


“She took great care of my Murphy. Sent tons of photos and videos throughout the day and it looked like he was having a good time. I was concerned about other dogs bullying him at the last daycare and Stephanie listened to my concerns and assured me of her diligence. I am so happy we found her!”


About: Hello! I have trained puppies and dogs for basic obedience and shows for 15 years. I started as a mentee at 9 with a certified show dog runner and trainer for 1.5 years and started training my neighbor’s dogs as practice. I have since started boarding various pets throughout college up until now. As a pet owner, I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for and be responsible for our family members - I’m definitely that person and will ensure the upmost respect for you and your pets! I like to give my clients and their pets the time to get to know me and feel like they’re making the right choice. I like to keep everything transparent and open for discussion. I live in a large two-story home with a fenced backyard and plenty of running space. I believe in lots of mental and physical stimulation to keep all animals in my care happy and healthy. I work from home at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to get 10k steps a day for my own health and make it a point to go for a 2 hour walk a day and love having a companion there with me :) My home is pet proofed from any toxic plants, food is kept out of reach, and my home is treated for pests and fleas monthly. I also have dog gates in case I ever need to section a part of the home off. I don’t like to use dog crates in my home and like to let pets have a lot of freedom and space to feel their most comfortable.

Angie is an absolute gem! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease leaving my fur baby in her care. She’s attentive, communicative, and truly treats your pet like her own. I received regular updates and adorable photos that showed just how happy and relaxed my dog was. Angie goes above and beyond—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter!

Chris has always been extremely responsive and communicative since day one. We were so pleased to be able to sit Yuna with him for the day. She felt very comfortable and made new friends! :) We’re excited to board her and setup many new future sessions with Chris!

So glad I found Jeanne! Gnocchi loved playing with Jeanne’s doxies that Gnocchi returned home ready for bed. Overall Gnocchi seems very content and will be going over for doggy day care while I work. Jeanne is super sweet and takes good care of Gnocchi. Highly recommend!
