Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.

Sam is great with our dog Stewie! Stewie is very shy and it takes time for him to become comfortable around new people. Sam was very patient and kind to Stewie! Will definitely book a stay again!

Alex took amazing care of my beagle, Rusty, on super short notice—and I couldn’t be more grateful. He was incredibly kind, communicative, and sent multiple photos of Rusty enjoying his walks, which totally put my mind at ease. Rusty told me he had a blast and felt totally safe and loved 🐾😊. I’d absolutely trust Alex again in a heartbeat!

Anna was amazing watching my dog Willow for the first time. I had a lot of anxiety leaving her after just moving to San Diego, but Anna immediately put me at ease. She was so kind and treated Willow like her own, letting her relax and feel comfortable in her home. She kept me updated and sent great pictures that made me really happy. I truly appreciated her communication and care—would absolutely recommend her! She’s wonderful and you can see how much she loves and cares about dogs! Willow had a great time!

About: Hey there, I’ve been taking care of dogs for 10 years now, and will definitely make sure they have all the attention they need! I’ve been around dogs all my life and know how to deal with dogs of all different sizes and ages as well. I’ve fostered 14 dogs before so I know exactly how to make sure they are having a wonderful time and are safe the whole time! I work from home and have a pretty relaxed schedule so I can take them out to the park/walks/jogs/car rides/ bathroom breaks multiple times a day depending on how much activity you would like your dog/dogs to get! My main goal is to make your dog/dogs as comfortable so they won’t even know their real mom or dad is not there. I have a ready to go kit for any small emergencies equipped with all the sprays bandages/or any small medical devices I would need. I have my primary vet on speed dial as well if any emergency should happen in which you will be immediately notified and kept up to date. I strive to make sure you and your pets are 110% comfortable with me and the environment they are in so they can feel safe at all times!

We left our dog and cat with Kaitlin and Verle for almost two weeks and are very happy with their service! Our pets are usually very chill, so we got an update once every day or two, mostly of them just lying around 😂 Love the speedy communication when there were any questions or concerns; it helped ease our minds and showed that our pets were really cared for. It seemed like our pets were very comfortable with their stay, so we definitely plan to book with Kaitlin and Verle again in the future whenever we need boarding!

A great experience all around. Our girl Maya stayed with Ami and her family for three nights. Ami was very communicative and sent updates with pictures every day, which I really appreciated. Once we picked her up, Maya was content and ready for a nap. Oh and Ami's dog Coco is a sweetheart 💖 The first day she greeted Maya with lots of waggy tails and friendly sniffs. If you're looking to board your dog, I highly recommend Ami and her family. They made us feel very comfortable, starting with the meet and greet and through Maya's stay.

We are so thankful to Xochitl for taking such amazing care of Fluffy during his 5-day boarding stay while we were out of town. Knowing Fluffy was in such loving, patient, and trustworthy hands gave us so much peace of mind. Xochitl treated him like family, making sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for every day. Fluffy also had so much fun playing with the other puppies, which made his stay even more enjoyable. When we came back, he was relaxed, healthy, and clearly happy, showing how much he enjoyed his time with her. We truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him and highly recommend Xochitl to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!

I was extremely anxious about having to leave my cat for the first time, but Marwa was truly amazing! My cat is usually very shy and doesn’t warm up to people easily, but with Marwa, he was so comfortable and relaxed. She kept me updated with daily pictures and videos, which really gave me peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely loves and cares for the animals she watches. I will 100% be booking with her again anytime I need someone to take care of my baby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!

My dog is very shy and can get aggressive around other dogs because of her fear. She really enjoyed her stay at Cerita's house. She appeared to very comfortable there even with the other dogs. Cerita and her children were very welcoming.

I can not begin to recommend Sam enough. He was very quick to respond on initial meet and greet. Then continued with outstanding communication throughout the rest of our girls visit, keeping us at ease. Updating us everyday on how they were getting along and sending pictures of them enjoying their pup vacation at Sam’s awesome home perfectly suited for dog sitting. Over a wonderful experience, would definitely rebook.

Nicolas did such an amazing job with my pup over a weekend! I have a high energy breed and he exceeded typical expectations. My dog was well walked, definitely cared for, and I got lots of pics & updates which gave me peace of mind throughout my trip. I would 10/10 book with him again! He is very knowledgeable in different dog personality types and so I felt very confident trusting him with my pet who can have slight behavior issues.

Mabel loved her time at Araceli’s! Araceli was very warm and welcoming to us humans, but to Mabel she was a dog’s dream host. There are toys, stuffies and balls galore. Mabel absolutely felt at home the second we walked in. Mabel was allowed to get on the couch and Araceli didn’t mind when water dripped off her mouth after drinking water. We knew immediately that Mabel would be in great hands and she was. We were happy to receive pictures and even a video of Mabel having fun. We will definitely use Araceli again. I know Mabel will be excited.
