“Kylo had another great stay with Anner! He took extra care after a few updates for Kylo, and I so appreciate having someone nearby who is familiar with my pup. Thanks, Anner!”
“Judy was amazing! It was Chief’s first time with her and he fell in love! Super communicative- great with updates and photos! We can’t wait until Chief gets to stay with Judy again!”
“Carrigan is a lovely young woman with a dog whisperer touch. Puppy Sammy immediately sat at her feet as we were preparing to leave her driveway for an overnight trip — his first stay outside of our home/with a non family member EVER. I was worried that he may not take well to the situation, but he adjusted quickly, and Carrigan took him on several long walks which exercised him and tired him out. I recommend Carrigan highly!”
“Irene was awesome, very good vibes, a peaceful home setting & my Shih Tzu loved staying with her, playing in her big enclosed yard & going on walks with her, etc. while we were on our family cruise. My fur baby was in good hands with her & I'll definitely board her with Irene the next time we go away!”
“Andrea has watched my dog Noble a few times so far this summer. She has been really great. Noble is always well taken care of and I feel comfortable leaving him with her every time. In a short time she has come to love my dog as if her own and I really appreciate that. I look forward to the next time I can give my fur baby a mini-vacation at Andrea's!”
“Our second time booking with Kevin and just as amazing as the first time! Except this time he also watched our tinier senior dog in addition to our other dog and puppy. All three pups seemed like they had a great time! He catered to each of their personalities/size/temperament and sent pictures and updates throughout their stay.”
“It was our dog’s first stay away from home, and Rosediane made it fun and comforting for all of us. We got pictures and updates on how our little guy was adjusting and we were so glad he was enjoying himself while we were away! We will definitely use Rosediane again and are so thankful to find such a caring sitter!!”
“Radostina did a great job with our 5 year old and 5 month old pups. She has a fenced in yard and areas set up for playing and sleeping. She was so loving and sent lots of pictures. Through those pictures we could tell that our pups were loving their time with her and her family. Thank you Radostina!”
“Anna is so kind and took the best care of our dog! He was very calm when I picked him up, I can tell he really enjoyed staying with her. She sent photos and updates regularly and it was great to know he was doing well while we traveled. I truly appreciate the level of care Anna provided and welcomed our dog into her household. I’m grateful to connect, and I couldn’t imagine a better person to look after our pup! Thank you!!!”
About: I am currently a pet care specialist! I grew up taking care of dogs,cats,Guineapigs, hamsters, birds and more I always helped take care of my neighbors cats and dogs I honestly loved it ! I am honestly working full time but i usually always have time after work , take care of my babies first and then come and help I have a huge yard, 2 dogs , 4 cats , 1 Guinea pig, and 2 birds, but if needed they will be in separate rooms
“This was our first time using Jackie as our Dog Sitter and we were extremely pleased with the care she provided our French bulldog Penelope which included daily updates and fun photos. I highly recommend Jackie to others and looking forward to using her again in the future!”
“John was amazing! I was extremely concerned about leaving my doodle w a bunch of other dogs bc he had been recently bitten by a dog. John was the only dog sitter John was able to ease my anxiety quickly because the fact that he genuinely cares about each and every dog is obvious once you talk and/or meet him. First-off, he is the only dog sitter sitter I have ever found that pays close attention to the personalities of each dog— it is his regular practice to only accept dogs that are sweet, not at aggressive so they are guaranteed to enjoy socializing together! I was also extremely comforted by the fact that he does not simply toss the ‘new’ dog’ into the group he already has there. Rather, he welcomes the ‘newbie’ by first introducing him/her to the other dogs -individually- to proactively avoid the new dog feeling overwhelmed, anxious and/or scared in any way. His caring & loving way worked like a charm for my fur baby. I was sure of that bc John diligently sent me photos and videos — every day!”
“We left our dog Gary with Pablo for an overnight stay and when we picked him up he was happy and relaxed. Pablo let him sleep with him during the night and fed him some awesome natural food. I would definitely use Pablo again! ”
“Ginger didn’t even want to leave. She and Rye got along super well. Katie and Tausif were both very attentive and made sure she had a ball. They sent smiley pictures. They also followed my care instructions well, which I appreciate. I can tell Ginger can’t wait to come back.”
“Rossana was amazing and I will definitely book her again . She took such wonderful care of my dog Leo and treated him like her own. She kept me updated daily with adorable pics of his day. She is extremely accommodating with any request and attends to all the”
“Lexi was amazing. She took great care of acorn and was very communicative while we were away. We received lots of pics and videos and Acorn always looked like she was in great hands.”
About: Hello, I have been a dog person all my life; I grew up around different breeds, so I have plenty of experience with dogs with unique qualities / needs. I can genuinely say that dogs are my passion, I love learning from their different personalities. I am able to train your dogs with basic commands, exercise them in my back yard, take them for walks or nice hikes. I know life can get hectic at times and worrying about having to leave your pup with a stranger, shouldn't be another thing you worry about. Separation anxiety is a real thing among dogs & people. And that is exactly what I'm here for!!! I would love to take care of your fur baby while you are away! Whether it is for a night, a few days or just for a couple of hours; whatever your need is, rest assure your pup will be in great hands with someone who genuinely cares and enjoys being around dogs. I live in a house with large property, plenty of space for your pups to run around and have a great time. We also do movie nights, and indoor playtime for those doggos that prefer the chilled life :) I do have a 2-year-old fixed labrador named Luka who enjoys making new friends. He is as friendly as it gets, loves cuddles and lots of attention. I also have a 2-year-old daughter who loves doggies just like her momma. Even though their interaction will be minimal, please advise if your dog is not comfortable around children or if you are unsure of whether or not they should interact. My goal is to always have a safe environment for all! I work from home most of the time, having to go into the office on random occasions; so, my availability is flexible. Full availability for weekends, overnights and/or long boarding stays. Weekly doggy daycare is also an option. I have a large property, not fenced in at the time, but for those doggies not good off leash, i have plenty of indoor space for them to be active.
“We left our 2 year old dog, Zenzi, with Zoila and her husband for two nights in Feb 2023. We were quite nervous since this would be our first time leaving him for boarding while we were out of town. But after our meet and greet with Zoila, we left with a really good feeling and decided to leave our pup with her for the two nights. The clincher was that she only accepts one client at a time for boarding. This was really a big plus for us since our dog does get quite anxious and can get uncomfortable if there are too many dogs around, plus he just loves the additional attention :) Zoila took really good care of Zenzi - she took him on frequent walks (he logged thrice the number of steps than he usually does when he was with her), she constantly updated us with videos and photos (that really helped us feel less nervous), and her husband and she genuinely bonded with Zenzi. Zenzi got along with her dog as well, so there were zero issues. I'll definitely go back to Zoila for future daycare and boarding needs. Big recommend!”

Michelle and her family are absolute gems! We have complete comfort in leaving our dog with them every time we travel. Our lab is typically a little nervous with others and now happily bounds into the house. She loves their walks and the fenced backyard. We wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for boarding.
Our 2 dogs stayed with Andrea for 8 nights and came home more social with each other than usual. I believe that the controlled interactions they have with the other dogs in her environment was very positive for them both. It was a great experience for us and will certainly use Andrea again.
Kevin and Ana did such a fantastic job taking care of my puppy while I was away for over a week. They made him feel so welcome and comfortable. They also provided excellent communication with me throughout his stay with plenty of updates and photos. They are very kind, dog-loving people and I’m sure I will be sending my pup to their home again in the future. I’m grateful to have found them!
Anner took amazing care of our girl while we were away. He followed her routine and was sensitive to her specific needs. He kept in touch throughout the week, providing updates, photos, and videos. We are so grateful to have found Anner and will not hesitate to have him care for our Millie the next time we’re away.
This was our first time Tybalt was under John's care. Setting up care was very quick and seamless as John was flexible with pickup/drop off times, which came in handy, given the travel uncertainties during the busy summer months. Prior to care, our dog met with John to be evaluated and observe how our dog played with others under his care. Seeing John evaluate Tybalt and his personality was great. Tybalt was quite comfortable with him, even meeting him for the first time. Tybalt also sat next to him watching TV, which was just like home! Tybalt was initially shy interacting with other dogs, but on day 2, he started to warm up and get into the fun. John sent lots of videos each day with cool music to keep us updated on his progress. We will certainly reach out to John again knowing Tybalt will be in great hands and have many friendly furry friends to play with!
This was our first time using Jackie as our Dog Sitter and we were extremely pleased with the care she provided our French bulldog Penelope which included daily updates and fun photos. I highly recommend Jackie to others and looking forward to using her again in the future!
Ginger didn’t even want to leave. She and Rye got along super well. Katie and Tausif were both very attentive and made sure she had a ball. They sent smiley pictures. They also followed my care instructions well, which I appreciate. I can tell Ginger can’t wait to come back.
Sonia was amazing!! My dog had a fantastic time and I could tell he was in very good hands right away. She took great care of him, took him on fun excursions, and sent very cute photos and updates. You can tell Sonia is a dog lover and my dog can’t wait to stay with her again!
Anthony was great with my dog, Oliver. When our flight was canceled and rebooked for the next day, he was incredibly flexible and accommodated a late pickup without hesitation. It gave me peace of mind knowing Oliver was in good hands during an unexpected travel delay. Thank you Anthony for your reliability and kindness!
