“Excellent hosts for my pup! Michael and Whitney provided a great atmosphere for a dog to fit right in. They ensured I had regular updates and pictures of my dog. Fantastic experience and will be booking again in the future!”

“Gerry is the best. We just left our puppy with her for his first overnight stay and he was received with lots of love and attention. Would definitely recommend Gerry to others.”


“Namrata is great in taking care of my Bichon. She sent me picture every day and updates me on my dog's status. My dog usually does not eat at stranger's place, but at her house, she ate everything and slept well. My dog was able to cuddle with them and play with them everyday. I feel that my dog had a vacation while I was one vacation. Namrata is the person to go to for dog sit while I am away. Thanks for the great service.”

“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”

“Jolanta and her family are the best! Our pup Lulu felt very comfortable right away and she was in good spirits when we picked her up after ten days away. We could tell she got a lot of love and attention. Jolanta’s very friendly and great with providing photo and video updates. Also very safety minded. Would highly recommend!!”

“Tanvi and her family are so loving and caring towards Chestnut. We love seeing the videos and photos she sends. He has a great time with their Shih-Tzu Happy. Thank you!”

“Julianna was great with our dog. She kept was updated and also sent us pictures of our dog. She responded quickly to our message which was nice of her. Will definitely recommend her to others and definitely book her again as well”

“Gang was amazing with our Yellow Labrador during her 7-Day stay recently. She communicated efficiently every day and sent plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog was clearly happy and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely recommend her and trust my pup with her again. Thank you!”

“Coyote and Grover enjoyed their stay with Thana, Subangi, and of course Bruno. They loved playing in the big back yard and got along well with Bruno (who was generous with sharing his toys). We received a lot of photo updates and never worried about the pups because we knew they were in capable and caring hands.”


“Camilla and Omar's entire family was delightful and very loving with Oscar. He especially loved running in their big fenced yard chasing Tantor as well as the other pets they were taking care of. Even though they weren’t able to take him on walks, they made sure he got plenty of exercise and outdoor time running in the backyard. He seemed to be having a lot of fun based on the innumerable photos they shared. They were great at communicating with us by giving multiple daily updates on Oscar, which helped put us at ease while we were away. Their home was clean with a great loving vibe. We highly recommend Camilla and Omar as excellent pet sitters. We will certainly use their services again! Thank you Camilla & Omar.”

“Carly and her family were attentive foster parents for our two higher-maintenance rescue pups. Easy initial meeting, great home with expansive backyard for the dogs to play, friendly family dog. Responsive to messages and shared great photos while we were away. Will use them again!”

“Samantha was great. Very attentive to our dog and his needs and provided regular updates. Her dog cocoa was also very sweet. Would recommend to anyone in the area”

“first time boarding with Kiana and it was great! She communicated well and sent lots of photos, and Joy seemed like such a happy girl when I picked her up! Looking forward to her watching Joy longer during the summer especially knowing how great of care she gives dogs!”

“Karen was very kind and responsive and most importantly great with Dobby! I appreciated her updates and pictures to let me know Dobby was doing well. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Maureen was an incredible dog sitter who treated our 2 dogs like family from the moment they met. Communication was excellent, with prompt updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. Maureen is reliable, caring, and truly passionate about animals, we highly recommend to anyone.”

“I can't say enough good things about Rachel! Leaving my fur baby, Lucy, was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but Rachel made it so much easier. She sent daily updates and pictures, so I could see Lucy’s sweet face and know she was in good hands. Rachel was incredibly attentive and caring, and it's clear she loves animals just as much as I do. When I picked Lucy up, she was beaming with joy and looked like she'd been well taken care of. I was so impressed with how Rachel had followed her routine and given her all the snuggles and love she needed. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you, Rachel, for making my trip so much less stressful and for being an amazing caregiver to my little girl!”

Mitzy has been a repeat customer with Mary for a while now. We had an especially long trip out of the country and Mary had to deal with Mitzy's health issues that came up during it. She handled it with so much care and it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Can't recommend Mary highly enough!
