“Cindy is awesome! She is very experienced and knowledgeable in caring for and training dogs. She is very prompt, organized, and flexible. I like that she has everything your pup will need from toys, crates, bowls, etc. And she cleans everything in between uses which is above and beyond! My golden came home happy and wiped out :) We will definitely use her again in the future.”

“I would like to express my family's gratitude to Gianina for taking an extraordinary care for Lola! She was very attentive to Lola's routine and needs and embraced Lola as she was part of her family! My dates changed and Gianina was extremely supportive and generous with my new dates and this was big relief for our family as we knew that Lola is being loved by Gianina and her family. We highly recommend her for being professional, caring and loving, flexible and attentive to Lola's needs. THANK YOU VERY MUCH for helping my family during our Christmas break!”

“Sandra was great with Jarvis! She followed all my instructions and kept me updated the whole time. When he had some tummy issues, she let me know right away and followed the updated feeding plan without any issues. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos (including his poop 😂), which helped me coordinate his care. She even noticed little things like Jarvis liking to look at himself in the mirror — something I didn’t know before! She also kept me informed about his naps and bedtime. Would definitely book with Sandra again.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A huge thank you to Cindy and her husband, MJ, for taking such amazing care of Kingston and Kao! 🐾❤️ We truly couldn’t have asked for better sitters! They kept us updated with messages and photos throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Now, Kingston can be a handful at times 😂, but not once did Cindy or MJ complain or make us feel like he was too much to handle. Instead, they made us feel completely comfortable and reassured that both of our babies were in great hands. That alone meant so much to us! We truly appreciate their patience, kindness, and the love they showed Kingston and Kao. It feels good knowing you can leave your fur babies with people who genuinely care. We will absolutely be booking with them again! Highly recommend! ❤️🐶🐾”


“This was my first time booking with Robert and I am 100% happy with my experience. Robert kept in constant communication with everything and was very experienced with dogs - I felt very comfortable leaving Goku with him for the 2 weeks. I will be reaching out to Robert for future boardings and would definitely recommend his services to anyone!”

“Hidemi was an amazing boarder. She responded quickly to my last minute request on a holiday. She took care great care of my Bichon Frisee puppy, Billy Biscuit, and sent me daily pics of all their adventures. My flight coming back was delayed, and she could not have been more considerate and accommodating. I wouldn't hesitate to use Hidemi's services again.”

“Lihuan and her husband took great care of both of my dogs, Mia and Milo. Mia needs daily medication and Lihuan ensured that she was receiving it every day! In addition to video and photo updates, Lihuan was very responsive! Would absolutely book again!”

“Stephanie and Joe are amazing! They kept me updated with lots of photos of my happy dog! Lots of walks and cuddles! Would use them again in a heartbeat. Think my Dog had more fun on vacation than I did! Thank you again to these two for taking such good care of Milo!”

“Emi and her family were the absolute best dog sitters we have ever had! They’re so kind and personable and were very responsible with our pup’s eyedrop meds and nightly tooth brushing, plus his restricted diet. We got so many beautiful picture and video updates during the 5 night stay, and we could see our happy and well loved our boy was the whole time. Couldn’t recommend her more! Thanks for everything, Emi!”

“Thank you so much for always treating Charlotte like family and going above and beyond to take care of her needs. We really appreciate it. She loves her second family to vacation at!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have several cats of my own, and I’ve even trained one of them to shake hands, roll over, spin, and play dead—yes, really! I believe that building trust is one of the most important parts of caring for animals, and I always use calm, patient, and positive interactions. Over the past few years, I’ve also helped care for a senior Golden Retriever and friends’ cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet is playful and curious, shy and cautious, or just wants a quiet companion, I’ll meet them where they are and treat them like part of the family. I currently offer cat boarding, small dog boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I also welcome small dogs who are comfortable and friendly around cats. Since cats are part of our everyday household, I want to make sure boarding is safe and enjoyable for both your dog and my resident pets. Small dogs will be treated as part of the family and will have plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship during their stay. For boarding, I live in a spacious 3-bedroom house with my 7 friendly and social cats. My cats are used to living in a multi-cat household and enjoy having companions around. Boarding cats will be able to live, relax, sleep, and play alongside my cats as part of the household rather than spending their stay confined to a separate room. Photos Guaranteed! I love capturing special moments and will always send lots of pictures during each visit so you feel connected and reassured while you're away. If you’re looking for someone responsible, patient, and genuinely excited to spend time with your pet, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out—I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! My schedule is currently very flexible, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home for much of the day and can easily adjust my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medications, or any other special needs your pet may have. For boarding pets, this also means they won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to spend plenty of time with them throughout the day, whether they want to play, explore the house, relax with the other pets, or simply have some quiet company. Because my schedule is flexible throughout the week, I’m also able to accommodate different routines and provide care that stays as close as possible to what your pet is used to at home. I will hold the leash tight if we meet any dogs or human on the way, if your dog is too excited I will use my body to block the sight.
“Su is very sweet, Winston was clearly comfortable immediately. Very communicative, lots of photos, and flexible on pickup and dropoff. Will definitely rebook next time we need at home stay for our pup!”

Our normal sitter wasn’t available and we were scrambling to find someone that could watch our 2 huskies for 2 weeks. Jon and Tatiana were responsive from the beginning which took a lot of stress off my mind. Not only did it seem like the perfect environment that my dogs were use to, but the regular pictures I was getting throughout our trip with their kids hugging my dogs and seeming to be very comfortable gave me an amazing sense of relief. Couldn’t recommend them more for the job they did watching my four-legged family members.

We can’t recommend Brenda enough! This was our first time using Rover, and we were nervous about leaving our husky, Kiley, who has separation anxiety and takes a daily pill. Brenda put us at ease right away. She works from home, so Kiley was never left alone. She answered all our questions and had a fenced backyard ready for Kiley. Kiley was calm and settled in on day one. Over our 10-night stay, Brenda took her on walks and to the park, adjusting around the heat. The updates were the best part. We got regular messages with tons of photos and videos, and we could see Kiley was happy, well-behaved and getting spoiled. Brenda was also flexible and friendly when our pickup time shifted. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Kiley was in great hands. Brenda treated her like family. Highly recommend, and we’ll be booking her again!
Simone was absolutely wonderful with our boy, Grizzly! 🐾❤️ She was so sweet and caring with him, gave him treats, lots of love, and made sure he felt comfortable and happy. It was so clear that she genuinely cared about him, and Grizzly absolutely loved her! 🥹 We really appreciated the care and attention she gave him and would definitely trust Simone with Grizzly again. Highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our fur baby had a wonderful stay! Lai sent photos and videos everyday of her and it looked like she was happy, exercising, and well cared for. We had just moved to the area and were anxious to find a new dog sitter while we were going to be away on an international trip for over a week. Our dog has her own quirks, anxieties, and leash reactivity that make us picky about who cares for her. During the meet and greet, as I went over her care in great detail, Lai was very warm, understanding, and confident regarding the care of our dog. Our dog felt comfortable with her right away and that is saying a lot given how anxious she can be! Even at drop off, we forgot her dog bed, but Lai was very flexible and our dog was more than comfortable sleeping on the couch for the whole stay. Lai’s home has plenty of secluded outdoor green space and a quiet open neighborhood for walking. She also doesn’t take in more than 3 dogs at a time, meaning that more care and attention can be focused on her. Our dog needs to be fed separately due to resource guarding with food, but she has barriers to separate off areas if needed. Lai’s services were well worth the price, which afforded us the ability to relax, even thousands of miles away. We felt always that our fur baby was in good hands. We look forward to using Lai’s services in the future and would confidently book with her again!

Irene was so sweet and loving to my dog, who I had to unexpectedly board for a long work weekend. I missed her so much but I had no worries because she was in such good hands, playing with Irene's family and own lovely dog. I would not hesitate to hire her again and I trust her completely.

I had an amazing experience with this dog boarding place! The staff was friendly, professional, and treated my dog like part of their family. They kept me updated and made me feel comfortable knowing my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for. My dog came home relaxed and in a great mood. I highly recommend this place and will definitely use them again!
