“Kat was amazing with our pup Theo! Theo has pretty bad separation anxiety and we were really worried. However he absolutely loved Kat and loved spending the day with her and didn’t want to leave.”
“We were very satisfied with the care Justin and Trung provided for our miniature schnauzers, Apollo and Ares, during their daycare stay. They followed our instructions closely and made sure both dogs’ needs were met throughout the day. Apollo and Ares were both well-hydrated when we picked them up, which we really appreciated. They also got a walk and enjoyed roaming around their fenced yard. Justin and Trung were gracious enough to provide us with updates throughout the day, including pictures and videos of our pups having a great time — which gave us peace of mind. We’re especially grateful also for Trung’s kindness and attentiveness — it really showed in how comfortable our dogs were. Thank you, Justin and Trung!”
“Peggy is exactly the person you want taking care of your pets. She is patient, relaxed, and full of love! She has a dog of her own, Peanut, and offers to do an introduction before your booking to make sure all animals are comfortable. My days are somewhat unpredictable and Peggy was always accommodating and patient with my schedule. Maple would rush to her door each day in anticipation. We feel so lucky that Maple has been under such great care for the past 2 weeks!!”

Daniel S.Star Sitter
“To Whom It May Concern: Daniel has been a dog lover and owner for as long as I can remember. He is very conscientious and responsible person. I can’t think of anyone that would be able to care for others as he had cared for his dog for almost 19 years. I think he would make an excellent pet owner and caregiver in any capacity he might avail himself to. I hope this testimonial says enough about Daniel not only as a pet owner and caregiver, but also is a person. Please contact me if you should have any questions.”
Karan V.
