Our Mimi had her first overnight with April. Everything went great. April even constructed a ramp so Mimi could go up and down the bed without jumping. She is still in-coordinated after spinal cord surgery. This was meant to be a rehearsal before a 2-week boarding at the end of the month. We are so happy to know Mimi will be in good hands.

Karen was absolutely amazing with our dog Bennett! We’ve never had such a kind and caring pet sitter that we trusted so easily! We received frequent updates and never had any doubt about the level of care our dog was receiving! I 100% recommend Karen and will definitely book again whenever we need a reliable sitter!

I can't recommend Anthony and Nikita, enough as dog sitters! They went above and beyond in caring for my pup during the holiday season. They were incredibly attentive, showering her with love, cuddles, and outdoor adventures. She had so much fun during her stay, especially with personalized outings to dog parks where she met new pups and people. They were always closely monitoring her and making sure she was safe and happy. I also loved receiving adorable photo updates that showed just how much she was enjoying her time. She was the happiest she’s ever been while I was away, and I truly felt at ease knowing she was in such good hands. If you're looking for top-notch dog sitters, Anthony and Nikita are the perfect choice!

Lilly did it again! I recently went on a long trip and Lilly stepped in to watch my little one. My boy Juice truly enjoys his stay with both Lilly and her husband. She does a great job of sending updates and keeping Juice in good health specially during this heatwave here in the Bay Area. Thank you again for being so trustworthy!

Charlene has been very responsive, made me feel at ease and answered all my questions before leaving Blue with her. Blue has had fun both times he has stayed with Charlene! Her care and awareness of how the other dogs may get along allowed me to feel comfortable with Blue playing and meeting other dogs while away.

Mary was an amazing dog sitter for Yali! We received multiple updates each day with super cute pictures. We could tell how well Mary cared for him and incorporated him into her routine, taking him on errands and walks all over the neighborhood. She was very considerate during our initial meet and greet, knowing how to introduce herself and her dog to Yali. This helped him feel comfortable and welcome in her home. She was so kind and sweet to Yali and we are looking forward to booking with her again!

Alexandra was an incredible pet sitter for my almost 3-year-old mini bull terrier. Alexandra is a clear communicator, proactive, kind, responsible, attentive, and loves animals. My dog stayed with Alexandra and her two kiddos for 5 days/nights, and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Alexandra's excellent communication. She kept me updated and texted me each day before I had a chance to worry about anything (after all, she was caring for my fur baby!). I felt at ease knowing that my pup was in loving and attentive hands, and I could text any time I felt the need. My dog is super friendly and also has some behavior quirks. She can get overexcited, and Alexandra had no problem following all the care instructions. She noticed my dog's comfort or discomfort and ensured she got what she needed. When I picked up my pup, she was quite content and even gave Alexandra a little lick goodbye, which told me even more about the care Alexandra and her family gave my little one. So many thanks, and I will definitely book again!!

Pablo for the win! Our dog received many snuggles and it was obvious he was very well taken care of. He kept us updated with photos and we had absolutely no worries while we were away. Thank you to Pablo and his wife for providing top-notch care. We appreciate the great communication and flexibility as well.

Melina is super sweet, caring and full of positive energy. She is great with communication, very punctual and fast to respond. Our puppy seemed super happy from the minute he met Melina until the end of his stay. We are sure he had a pleasant time and enjoyed his stay. We cannot recommend her enough, we already rebooked her twice and will always do if she is available!

Alma Luana was absolutely wonderful with my golden doodle, Amalfi! Alma Luana and her husband, Victor, truly went above and beyond to make Amalfi feel at home. They have a lovely home that is incredibly safe and perfect for pups, with easy access to nearby parks for walks and playtime. Amalfi was so relaxed and happy in their care that I could tell he truly felt like part of their family. They took him to the park for fun adventures, showered him with love and attention, and sent me plenty of updates and adorable photos throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. They were also incredibly accommodating with pick-up and drop-off times and communicated promptly, which made everything so easy and stress-free. It was clear how much Alma Luana genuinely loves dogs and goes above and beyond to ensure they feel happy and comfortable. Amalfi came home relaxed and full of joy, and I can’t thank them enough for giving him such a wonderful “home away from home.” I would wholeheartedly recommend Alma Luana and Victor to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and attentive sitters. Amalfi can’t wait to go back for his next stay — I think he misses them already!
