“Evelien took such excellent care of our dog! He came home so happy, and you could tell he was so well cared for. Evelien was communicative and sent wonderful daily updates on how he was doing, what he was up to, and photos of his stay. We would definitely use her again!”
“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”
“My dog spent 21 days in Yuchen’s house, and he was very happy with Yuchen’s family and her dog. Yuchen sent me pictures and videos everyday: my dog running in her large backyard, sleeping on the comfortable couch…. Yuchen is kind and responsible, highly recommended!”
“Jocelyn is an amazing dog sitter. She was communicative, professional and kind. She took care of my dogs for a period of 10 days and I had complete peace of mind because she sent me so many photos and videos of my pups having a great time in her home. She is a gem.”
“I live in South Florida but often travel with my dog, a 17 pound cavapoo named Goldie. I was in the area with family for two weeks and had to find a place for Goldie to stay for 4 days. I found Cathy and read the reviews and decided to book it. I couldn't be happier! I got pictures of Goldie playing with the other dogs and her daughter even let her sleep in bed with her! Like so many dog lovers I'm always nervous leaving my baby with a stranger but after meeting Cathy for 5 minutes she wasn't a stranger. I couldn't recommend Cathy more!”
“We can't say enough about Jesus. We needed a booking at the last minute, and Jesus happened to be nearby AND available. That was already too good to be true, but our dog is very anxious around strangers, and it takes her some time to get used to people. We had an immediate meet and greet, dropped her off the next day, and prayed. While we were on the plane, Jesus sent us a picture of Baily on her leash in the yard with her tail wagging and what appeared to be a smile. Jesus is the new dog whisperer! LOL”
“Danae is so responsible, friendly, understanding and careful dog sitter! She took care of my small pug, as if it was her own dog. We definitely will return to her! Strongly recommend to everyone.”
“My dog stayed with Rob for 16 days and he was attentive and excellent at communicating before and throughout the whole period. My dog had a lot of socializing time with other dogs there, with Rob seeming to take good care that dogs match in personality.”
“Ann was really great with our pup. It was his first boarding experience and it went very smoothly, I can tell my dog was happy and would have no problems staying with Ann again in the future. Ann kept us updated throughout the stay and overall was very professional.”
“This was the first time I was boarding my almost 13 year old anxious rescue dog. I was quite nervous but Lauryn eased my mind from the meet and greet a few weeks before. It was obvious how much she cared for dogs. My Shiloh was with Lauryn for 9 nights and did so well. Lauryn sent me pictures everyday and it was clear Shiloh made himself at home and was well cared for. The 9 nights included an unexpected night due to a flight cancellation. Lauryn was flexible and gladly cared for Shiloh for another night. Lauryn's home was very nice and accommodating for dogs and she is in a safe residential town. I know Shiloh misses her already and I look forward to having Lauryn sit for Shiloh again.”
“Melissa did a great job taking care of my precious dog. She sends up pictures and videos updates more than I expected. I highly recommend her and will book again.”
“Charmaine took a very good care of Teddy. She sent photos of him every day and shared what he was doing. Teddy looked happy and well cared for. I'd use Charmaine again. Thank you”
“I’m so grateful to have found Maureen to care for my sweet Lola while I was away! Lola can be a bit shy and isn’t always great with other dogs, but Maureen knew exactly how to handle her with so much patience and love. She really took the time to understand Lola’s needs and quirks, from giving her the cuddles she loves to making sure she had her peaceful walks without any stress. I could tell how happy Lola was when I came back—she was relaxed, content, and clearly well taken care of. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your fur baby, but Maureen exceeded my expectations in every way. I can’t thank her enough for giving Lola the attention and care she deserves. It was like she was on her own little vacation! It’s clear Maureen genuinely cares and goes the extra mile to ensure pets are happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Thank you Maureen!!”
“We had our 4 year old very active Lab stay with Peiyi for the weekend . Like any Dog parent I was extremely hesitant as it was our first time leaving her with them. Peiyi and her Husband both took great care of Coco and we had a happy puppy at pick up :)”
“It was our first vacation since covid and I was concerned about separation anxiety for my yorkie poo. I think she had a better time than I did! Lady and Christian were wonderful and lots of updates and photos were sent, I very much appreciated that. They were able to administer medication with ease. Communication was prompt. When we picked her up and got home, you could tell she had a great time. Usually she would be exhausted from stressed but she was her normal self! I will be using them again for sure!”
“What an amazing experience from our meet and greet to our first booking with Lucy. Theo was made to feel at home with Lucy, her consistent updates of videos and pictures helped ease any anxiety one would have leaving a fur-baby for any duration of a stay. The flexibility and communication were Lucy’s super power. Thank you so much!!!”
“As first time dog owners and hesitant to leave our 4 month old puppy anywhere, we could not have been more pleased with Graciela and Alejandra’s care. They provided tons of pictures and videos, making our vacation pleasant and at ease knowing our baby girl was having so much fun! Tons of play and love is all we could have asked for. We’ll definitely be using them again!”

My dog spent 21 days in Yuchen’s house, and he was very happy with Yuchen’s family and her dog. Yuchen sent me pictures and videos everyday: my dog running in her large backyard, sleeping on the comfortable couch…. Yuchen is kind and responsible, highly recommended!
Joanne goes above and beyond for boarding! We did a meet and greet beforehand, she helped communicate what to expect when leaving our pup for the first time and communicated a lot while we were gone which helped calm our nerves. Marshall was in great hands and couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave him with. We would highly recommend her!
Sunny and her family did a wonderful job taking care of our three family dogs, Eli, Barklee & Zoey. She sent pictures everyday, and we felt very assured that they were being well taken care of. They were all very happy when we came to get them. Sunny is the personification of her name!!🌞
It was my first time leaving my dog with her, so I had a lot of worries, but Alina understood that and took care of me so that I could travel with peace of mind. I could see my dog's happy and joyful expression in the photos she sent me every day. Above all, I am grateful that she made my dog so comfortable. I want to leave my dog with Alina again next time.
