“Quavo had the best time! Elena was super polite and kept us in the loop with frequent updates and photos, which we really appreciated. You could tell Quavo felt right at home with them and had the best time with Coco. The cute bandana at pickup was a very sweet touch. We’d happily book again and recommend her to anyone nearby! 🐾”

“I cannot say enough good things about Cece. I am extremely selective about who I trust with my dog, and I rarely leave her with anyone. Jewel stayed with Cece for nearly two weeks, and from day one, she treated her like one of her own. Jewel takes daily medication, follows a strict diet due to food allergies, and she's very nervous around other dogs. Cece took every precaution to keep her safe, made sure she received her medication, and patiently helped her become comfortable in her new environment. Jewel arrived afraid of dogs and left with a group of new friends. One of the things I appreciated most was the constant communication. Cece sent photos and videos every day, which helped ease my worries and allowed me to actually enjoy my vacation knowing Jewel was being so well cared for. My only wish is that Cece lived closer to our home in Indiana because I would take Jewel to her regularly without hesitation. Finding someone who provides this level of care, communication, structure, and genuine love for your dog is incredibly rare. From one very selective and nervous dog mom, I can wholeheartedly recommend Cece. This was a wonderful experience for us and I am so grateful we found her.”

“Joshua B. was absolutely amazing with Lobo! From the moment we connected, his communication was clear, timely, and reassuring. He treated Lobo like his own, and it was obvious our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for during the stay. We loved receiving updates and knowing Lobo was in such good hands. Joshua is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the pets he watches. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”

“Would highly recommend Kristin! She sent a lot of updates and my dogs seemed to be having a great time the entire time they were in her care. Everyone in her family is a dog lover so there was no shortage of attention to go around. Looking forward to using her again in the future!”

“Windell took good care of our 11 year old diabetic tortie. Our trip was delayed a day due to hurricane Helene, so he was very accommodating and communicated well.”

“Trevor was great with my dog and seems to have an environment where dogs can get their exercise, play, and also be at peace. I will definitely take my dog to him again.”

“I had an amazing experience with Iyorima this past weekend! I had to travel for a wedding I was in, and she took such great care of my dog, Rose, the entire time. She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me total peace of mind. Rose looked happy and well taken care of the whole time. She was a huge help, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“David and his family were great! David is responsive and responsible. We could tell he’s a true dog lover. Our pup came back happy and exhausted from all her playtime at David’s :) Thank you again for a great stay!”


“Dzeni and Kathy are PHENOMENAL!!! We received daily updates and photos of our little girls. It was so comforting to know they were loved while we were away. Providing a highly rated review is a double-edged sword. When others learn how great they are, we run the risk of them being completely booked. Oh well…that doesn’t change my sentiments above. If you are looking for someone who will love your baby as much as you do and want piece of mind while you’re away, we HIGHLY recommend Dzeni and Kathy!!!”

“J’akeecia watched my dog while I was out of town and did an awesome job. Super easy to communicate with, sent me updates without me even asking. She was super reliable, and took great care of my pup. Pics walks, zero stress. Definitely recommend!”

“We can’t recommend Chante enough! We left our two dogs with her for 4 days and she cares for them like her own. One of our dogs had an infection that required extra care and she went above and beyond to look after him while also keeping us on the loop the whole time. Super grateful for her attentiveness and care!”

“Kory took such good care of our boys. We got lots of daily pics of them being silly pups. We would have him watch our boys again and definitely recommend him to others as a sitter.”
“Victoria was amazing with my dog! She was super responsive and kept me updated with lots of pictures, which I really appreciated while I was away. My dog looked so happy and relaxed the whole time—it was clear he was having a great time and was well taken care of. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with Victoria again!”

“Lynne and her husband were amazing with our boy Max! They were attentive to his health condition and helped administer his medication with no issues. I was kept updated often with pictures and messages. They were very responsive and took excellent care of our pup! He seemed to love his time there as well and made himself right at home. We look forward to using Lynne as a dependable sitterr in the future! Thanks again!”

“Gloria was great! She took wonderful care of my dog, Lucy. I had some special dietary needs for Lucy and Gloria took care of that like a pro. Gloria is a sweetie and I would recommend her to anyone looking for safe and loving care.”

This was Chippy’s second stay with Elena, Meiru & Dongguang and honestly we wouldn’t go anywhere else. They’re incredibly communicative, clearly love dogs, and Chippy is always happy and well taken care of when we pick him up. As an Australian Shepherd he’s got a lot of energy and they handle him like pros. Highly recommend, we’ll definitely be booking again!

Kory was a wonderful dog sitter for the second time! Both were long stays around 3 weeks and my pup did wonderfully. I got pictures and updates. The communication was consistent. My pup can be picky with other dogs but Kory made sure we had a meet and greet - I was happy my pup made some friends! Would recommend.

Kristin was excellent! Our long time dog sitter moved and I was nervous leaving my dogs with anyone else, but very quickly I knew they were in good hands. Constant updates and they had a great time staying for two weeks 😊 I would absolutely send them back if she would have them!

3rd time boarding my 2 Boxers with Nikki. They are very comfortable with Nikki and enjoy their playtimes. Follows up every day with pictures and video. Come home very tired. This trip he took extra care with Benji who had an eye irritation that started the day before boarding. Nikki is very responsive and reliable. Appreciate everything.

Lizzie comes home happy, healthy, and unstressed when she stays with Delaney and Alex. They are gentle and patient with Lizzie, who is a senior dog. I appreciate all the pictures and videos Delaney sends me of Lizzie while I am traveling. Lizzie has stayed with them twice for a total of about 3 weeks and we have had no problems. I would not hesitate to board Lizzie with them again.

It's so nice when you find someone you can really trust with your furry friends. Knowing they're getting plenty of exercise and attention brings such peace of mind. Chelby provided me daily updates with pictures and videos. It truly makes all the difference when your pets are happy and well-cared for. You can tell they were in great hands.
