“May is super responsive and gave us peace of mind with daily pics of our pup. We especially loved the photos with their sweet dog Pepper🥰 Our dog enjoyed the daily walks and time at the park. Wouldn’t hesitate to leave her in May & Marc’s care again.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Alana and her husband as pet sitters for my dog, Terry. They were incredibly attentive and caring throughout the entire stay. I received daily updates and photos, and they paid close attention to all the small details to ensure Terry felt comfortable, especially with his eating and sleeping routines. What truly stood out was Terry’s reaction when I came to pick him up. He was happy and relaxed, and—something he had never done with previous sitters—he went back to Alana and her husband to say goodbye with a smile and a kiss. It was clear he felt safe and well cared for. I highly recommend Alana and her husband to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet care, and I would not hesitate to leave Terry with them again in the future.”
“Justin and Tara watched my pup for almost 2 weeks, We had a meet and greet the week before - the booking was originally going to be one week, the 1st week of August, but I had the opportunity to go away for a few days before my original vacation and so I asked if Desi could come for a few days before the original booking and they were very flexible and said no problem, The meet and greet went well, and my pup got to meet the family and I felt like she’d be comfortable with them. She is very social and so I knew she’d be happy to be with a fun family and any other dogs they might have over - When it came time to drop her off, i gave instructions and said goodbye. I got updates, throughout the days- it sounded like she was having a great time and had settled in well, I got videos of her having fun with different doggy friends, and snoozing in laps and next to her playmates (Justin and Tara asked when we discussed the dates, if Desi liked other dogs - I said she loves playmates) I am so happy that I found Justin and Tara- they have a beautiful home and a wonderful family and they will take care of your pet as if it is their own.”
“Kimberly was amazing, and a life saver! Our dog stayed with her and her family for a couples days and it just gave us so much peace of mind knowing she takes such good care of her own dogs and took the same care with ours. And she’s so friendly and accommodating I think our dog had a better vacation than we did! Pictures she sent us were adorable and looked like they had a little pup resort. We would send Howie again for sure.”
“Michael took great care of my pups. Very communicative and always provided pics and updates on what they were doing. Will be bringing my dogs back to him in the future and highly recommend him for anyone else!”
“Sochenda and her family treated my furbaby like a king during his overnight stay. He happily went with her and hesitated when I went to pick him up! All good signs that a good time was had and that he was happy. Thank you!”
“Zari was friendly, communicative, reliable, and took good care of our Isla during the holidays. We appreciate that she can handle all kinds of dogs, including our energetic one!”
“Ann took great care of our dog Reagan while we were traveling back east. She was very communicative and flexible…especially when our flight home was delayed. We will definitely be booking Ann’s services again!”
“Alyssa was super quick to reply and send photos and updates while Bowie was with her. She also helped practice his training so he would stay on track. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Gris always takes wonderful care of our Lili. Gris typically sends a summary of the day with several photos. I like that Lili is able to hang out with Gris’ dog, Coco and other dogs that come to stay - she gets to hang with a pack while she’s on vacation.”
“Danielle and her family took great care of our little Coconut. It was Coconut’s first time being away from us so we were worried about her, but Danielle did well to socialize Coconut with her own dogs. Coconut never likes staying on the sofa and she managed to cuddle with their family on the couch. We got plenty of updates and photos of our little girl while we were out of town so it assuaged our worries greatly. I highly recommend Danielle for anyone!”
“Alix watched my dogs from June to December 2015. She took my dogs in on very short notice after my previous situation became unsuitable and right before I had to leave the country. I have been away a lot over the past few years and I like my dogs to get a lot of social interaction with as many different people and dogs as possible. They definitely got that at Alix’s house. Alix is in a good location. There is a park in her neighborhood and she is easy to get to from the 5, 15, or 805. She also has a good support network with family and friends. Even if you reside out of the area, San Diego is a great place to leave your dogs. I would highly recommend Alix to anyone who works abroad or has to deploy overseas with the military.”
“Angela looked after our bernedoodle for few weeks with great care! She's intuitive and friendly. She exceeded our expectation! Under her care, our dog's hair got brushed every day, as well as brushing our dog's teeth every few days. Our dog's paws& butt got wiped after each walk and his face wiped after feeding time. Our dog came home with no eye boogers, not matted, our crate and his feeding bowls pretty clean! In fact, our dog's hair smelled like he got a quick wash (usually in other boarding place, he gets dirty real quick from outdoor playtime!) Angela was very good in communication (sending updates/pictures) Thank you Angela(as well as her daughter and her own dog) for being so good to our dog! We would definitely book her again in the future.”
“Tyler is simply amazing! Had a last minute request to watch my dog for 5 days and Tyler was able to accommodate. He would give daily updates with pictures. My dog usually has a hard time adjusting to new settings but Tyler was able to show her around and make sure she was as comfortable as possible. We are grateful to have found him and you should book Tyler if you need someone that is understanding, has a relaxing vibe, and cares for dogs!”
“We absolutely love Angelina! Our dog has separation anxiety, we know Angelina is always willing to go the extra mile to comfort him, reassure him and update us on how he was doing. We can’t thank her enough for giving him so much love and attention. Her care made all the difference during our trip because we didn’t have to worry about him. Highly recommend her!”
“I booked with Laurel and had no issues. Mr Bosco enjoyed his time there. Even though it was just one day she took him on a short hike with her dog Daisy. When I picked him up he seemed happy and was still playing with Laurel’s dog. I also received updates and pictures each day. No problem with eating schedule. Will definitely book again.”
“Apple was great! Fantastic communication and I felt super comfortable with my dog being in her home while I was away. He had a great time, I would highly recommend!”
“Zil has looked after our cat twice now. She sends lots of updates and takes care of our cat as one of her own. Our cat loves staying at Zil’s place while we’re away. Highly recommend! :)”
