I was out of town for the week and Olivia watched Lulu for the being. She was wonderful, kept up with Lulu’s meds, and kept me updated the entire time. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!

Enrica & Roberto rolled out the red carpet for our Frannie. Numerous photo updates, with accompanying messages, definitely put our minds at ease. When I went to pick up our little girl, I wasn’t sure she would want to come home!

My husband and I went away for a week and it is always hard, leaving our little one behind. Of all the times that I have used her over, I have felt the most with Vallicia. From the moment we met, I felt her warm spirit and her love for dogs. I was completely comfortable with being away, as I know he was in good hands. She kept us up-to-date with pictures, and I could tell our little one was having a great time! I would definitely use her again!

About: As an animal lover your baby will become my baby for the time being spent with me. I have dog and cat experience of all sizes! I do work an office job from 8-5. I can come let the animal outside for a potty break on my lunch break during the week if needed. During the weekends I can accommodate any needs. I have a chain link fenced in yard and spare bedroom with a crate if your dog prefers some alone time. Currently the house is pet and child free.

I am a very picky dog mommy, and usually we plan all vacations that would include taking our Muffin along. When I saw this App (Dog Vacay) I thought, "What a great idea!" I scheduled a "Meet & Greet" with Coleen after looking at her profile...anyone who rescues dogs, cats, and birds is definitely an animal lover and one after my own heart. Muffin came along to meet and sniff and I was totally impressed with Coleen that we booked an overnighter. Coleen sent me pictures and short updates of Muffin which made the whole family happy to know that she was in good hands with a loving woman and her son. We will definitely be booking future vacays with Coleen and maybe even a few overnighters here and there just for fun!! I highly recommend Coleen!!! She was fabulous!!!

Today was my babies, Nala and Simba’s first day with Andrea and they had a good day. Andrea kept me abreast to everything they were doing by sending pictures and videos. Andrea and her family cared for my fur babies like they were her very own. My babies will definitely be boarding with her in the near future.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, a rabbit, amphibians, reptiles, rodents, etc. I also have experience working on farms helping care for animals. I am very happy to have worked with animals my entire life and would love to contribute to helping with as many as I can! I am very receptive to animals feelings and boundaries and have no problem leaving them be and giving them space, or playing with them and giving them all the love and care in the world. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, and providing them with whatever extra care they may need. I am very much open in terms of my schedule, and am available to work with others in accommodating them during the week for pet care. I live in a pet friendly apartment with access to food, water, a safe walking trail, a clean environment, a tidy room, access to the bathroom, plenty of room for playtime, and so much love.

Elisabeth is simply great, really grateful for her to take care of Pluto on Christmas day, she kept us updated throughout the evening and we could see Pluto was relaxed and happy. She was really caring, Pluto can be a bit anxious at a new place but she made sure that all points discussed during our meet and greet were taken care of. I would highly recommend Elisabeth and would look forward to the next stay.

Nathan & Meredith took excellent care of our two dogs. They kept them happy and entertained, and sent tons of pictures while we were away. Oakley and Petey loved playing with their dogs and we came home to content, tired out pups. I know they’ll be excited next time they get to stay with their new friends.

Never had to leave my pup behind before, was super nervous. He did great, Tabby was great. Got my man back happy as could be. Must’ve had a good time because he is the nervous type and it was like he didn’t even realize we were gone! She was awesome. Easy drop off, easy pick up. Got my dude back in one piece and happy. Couldn’t ask for better!

Being an overprotective mom I went back and forth with myself on whether or not I was willing to leave my dog with anyone for 3 days and just cancel my trip but Zays calm demeanor doing our meet and greet calmed my intrusive thoughts and I finally booked their stay. I know I probably got on her nerves with all of the inquiring I did but she was very polite and very on task with the instructions that I left for my babies, she communicated well and most of all she could handle my very rambunctious 3 year old Weimaraner/Pit mix. She also made sure My senior dog was very comfortable and relaxed during her stay as well. Thank you Zay for caring for my babies and they will be seeing you again!!!
