1. Cathy B.


“I have never entrusted Dexter's care to anyone outside my immediate family, but after our initial meet and greet with Cathy at her home my mind was completely at ease. You can tell that she truly loves and cares for animals and the house is very dog-friendly. She sent me an update each of the two days I was gone, and a photo of Dexter hanging out in the backyard. Highly recommended!”

“We would like to express our gratitude and thank Hope for taking care of the furbabies. Especially being so patient with our anxious one, Maya. She took such great care of them. She was in contact with updates and pictures throughout their stay. It was comforting to know that our furbabies were safe and in good hands while we are away. Her house is clean and she has a big backyard for the dogs to run around. I highly recommend Hope”

“Alina was great with Casper. Her and her family made him feel so comfortable. She kept me updated with videos, pictures and texts during the whole time Casper was with her. He really enjoyed himself and became good friends with the family’s dog Oreo. I definitely recommend Alina and would absolutely have her babysit Casper again.”


13. Enjoli D.

“I highly highly recommend Enjoli for any services! I would definitely rate her 5+ stars!! She took such great care for our dog Leo during our trip and was extremely attentive to his needs. This was his first time away from us for an extended period of time and she was very patient with him and loved him as if he was her own. She made sure he was fed and happy and kept us updated multiple times a day with texts and videos/photos of him. She took him out multiple times for walks and even assisted with his conversion to using the potty outside ( he was mostly using the pads but has grown accustomed to outside during her care). I really love how well she cared for Leo and he thoroughly enjoyed his stay with her. I will be booking her for any services needed in the future and I wholeheartedly trust her with our puppy Leo! If you’re worried about your dog boarding with someone safe I can assure you she will definitely exceed your expectations and ease your worry!”

“Lisa and her daughters were wonderful!!! They took amazing care of Lapa and Tilly was a great playmate. Highly recommend.”


15. Cynthia C.

“Cynthia boarded my large 2 year old dog for the weekend and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Drop off and pick up we're both super easy, she was great at staying in touch and quick to respond when I had any questions. Maui loved her fenced yard and came back happy and exausted. I would not hesitate to book with Cynthia again.”


16. Lady & Christian M.


“Lady and Christian are amazing! We left our 10 month old puppy with them for a day and felt so comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. Lady sent us pics and updates throughout the day. The minute we metLady we knew Violet was in good hands. We will definitely be calling on them again whenever we need a dog sitter!”


17. Yuchen X.

20. Christina N.


“I can’t recommend Christina enough! She and her partner took such amazing care of my dog Luna over Thanksgiving. Every day, like clockwork, Christina sent me updates with photos and videos of Luna, and I could see how happy and well-cared for she was. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Luna was in such loving hands. If you’re looking for someone you can truly trust to take care of your fur baby, Christina is the one. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”
