“Jackie and Jorge were great pet sitters.Jackie sent me pictures and stayed in touch daily. I appreciated the good care they took of Duke. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and reliable sitter! Thank you!”

“Lorena, is the most wonderful person I have ever met since moving to San Antonio! She took extraordinary care for my puppy and I couldn’t be more happy with her & her family’s care. It was my first time trying a dog sitter and she is top tier!”
“Our dog Franny had a wonderful stay with Tom while we were out of town! He sent us pictures of her adventures everyday, which was so comforting to see her having fun while we were away. She enjoyed spending time outside in their large backyard and really loved going on those long daily walks. Franny is already looking forward to the next time she can go back to stay there! 🐾”
“I am very happy with the way Kylie was cared for by Brianna. It is such a relief to know that I have a great puppy sitter for Kylie whenever I have to travel. Huge relief!! Thank you Brianna!”
“Snehal and Vivek were very accommodating to my pet Beagle, Bailey! They took Bailey in with open arms and took great care of her while my family and I enjoyed our cruise! During our time away from our loved one, Bailey, Snehal and Vivek sent pictures and text messages keeping us updated. We appreciated that. We will use Snehal and Vivek in the future to care for our beautiful Beagle. Thank you!”
“Kathy has watched my dogs now for a little over a year, and I would be devastated if anyone else had to ever watch them. She's the hero of my dog boarding dreams!!! She is accommodating, fair, and most importantly my dogs LOVE her and her families. Which says everything. I have a pretty aggressive dog, and she has worked with her with such grace and patience, that I no longer feel scared or uncertain of what will happen when I leave her. Kathy wakes up early, stays late to accommodate my pick up and drop off schedule, couldn't have found a better family...”

“Ann took great care of Boba! She was incredibly patient and understanding, especially since Boba was in heat at the time and can be a little shy when adjusting to new environments. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We truly appreciated her attentiveness and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“We have an anxious dog and she was very respectful to her needs! Our dog even warmed up to her after a little!! Super happy, was flexible with drop off as well!”
“Olivia was fantastic with Bunny. I got regular updates, pics, and videos to let me know how she was doing, and it was a great opportunity to get Bunny socialized with Olivia’s dogs and cats. Olivia and her husband were super friendly and easy to work with, and I know Bunny had a great time making new friends! I’ll def be bringing her back 🩵”

Tom and Shelly took exceptional care of our dog, Winston, this past weekend! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Winston received plenty of love, attention, and affection throughout his stay. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful for the kindness and dedication Tom and Shelly showed our pup, and we would not hesitate to trust them with Winston again. Highly recommend! I think Winston may have enjoyed his vacation as much as we enjoyed ours!
Sabrina was great! Our cat and dog were very comfortable with her and enjoyed a nice stay with her. I really appreciated the regular check ins and concern she showed for each one’s comfort level. When we need a sitter in the future, she will be our first check for availability!
Lauren was awesome!! Milo had so much fun. Lauren was able to fit us in last minute and took such good care of my boy. She sends updates and pictures and really makes it easy, and worry free. We have left Milo with a few people in the past, but Lauren was definitely the one we felt most comfortable with.
Silvia took exceptional care of our dog, Benzy, and we could not be more pleased with the experience. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she is trustworthy, caring, and genuinely compassionate toward animals. Throughout Benzy’s stay, Silvia kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was obvious from every update that Benzy was receiving lots of attention, affection, and excellent care. Finding someone you can completely trust with a beloved family member is rare, and Silvia exceeded all of our expectations. We felt comfortable knowing Benzy was in such capable and loving hands. We highly recommend Silvia to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter. We will absolutely be using her services again in the future!
Dorothy watched both my goldens for two days and kept me updated with how they were doing the entire time. I could tell by the pictures she sent, how much fun they had. She was very accommodating to my dogs needs and made sure to give one of my dogs ear drops during the day. We will definitely be booking her again!
The price was a little more than I'm used to paying but I was swayed by all the reviews and by her profile. The care Cecilia provides is worth every penny, she's going to be my first inquiry on my next board, and I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!! She watched my pup for a weekend and I've never seen him get so comfortable so fast. Within an hour he was snuggled up with her husband and other dog, when typically he spends his first night aloof and anxious. I'm definitely a worrier when it comes to my boy, so it was so reassuring to see that he immediately felt safe and at home with her family. I got tons of updates and photos too. If you're looking for a sitter who's going to take care of your baby like their own, this is who you need to book!
Jennifer took care of my Goldendoodle, Teddy, for almost 3 weeks while I was traveling in Asia. She constantly sent me updates and photos of him, above and beyond what I expected. I am way more than happy with how she cared for Teddy, and I highly recommend her. Jennifer will definitely be my first choice to care for Teddy during my future trips away, as she has definitely earned my trust. Thank you, Jennifer. 😊
Dariana was wonderful! She agreed to sit last minute and even met with us beforehand to get to know our dogs, which was so reassuring, especially since it was our first time using a sitter. She sent plenty of updates and photos throughout, so we always knew Chapo and Enzo were in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a better first experience and will definitely be booking with her again.
