1. Lourdes & Braden C.

“Simply amazing. Simba was comfortable the minute he met Lourdes and Braden. Such a lovely couple who took such great care of our dog. I will definitely use them again.”


2. Ping H.

“This was our second time boarding our puppy with Ping. This time we had to leave her for 7 nights so I was super nervous about it. Our puppy has sensitive stomach so she would have sudden diarrhea. The night before boarding she had one and woke us up in the middle of the night. I was so worried that I wanted to cancel our trip. But!! Ping took such good care of our puppy! Ping cooked blend meal for her and she recovered right away! She even trained her to wait and walk on loose leash! Our puppy walks like a different dog now! Ping was also very responsive and she will keep you posted with pictures and videos. Highly recommend Ping for boarding/day care!”


3. Lili & Matt Z.

“This is the second time we chose to leave Tobi with Lili and Matt. I am very satisfied the way they took care of Tobi and kept updating us with Tobi’s picture and video, which made a big difference when we left her for almost 20 days. Thank you Lili and Matt.”


4. Robert V.

“Huge thank you for taking care of both Merlot and Sammy while we were away for the week! Truly appreciate your flexibility, responsiveness, and the daily updates (messages, pictures) of their whereabouts. Additionally, the heaps of pampering with all the pets/cuddles, walks, drives, chilling together (indoors and in your beautiful backyard)…. what fun! Thanks for everything!! I bet they would love to see you again..! Until next time…”

“Thank you so much Shipra for taking such good care of Fresco and making him feel like home. I would totally recommend her if you are looking for a home away from home for your fur baby. Loved her family and how they all bonded with Fresco. She took care of every small details we mentioned and kept us updated with his pictures.”


7. Irine J.

“Irine was great!! She was very responsive and sent daily pictures and updates while our dog was there. We were nervous about mingling with other dogs, but Irine was able to help her ease the tension, and she seems to be more relaxed now with new fur friends. It felt like our dog went on a vacation of her own, thank you Irine!! ?”

11. Alyssa B.

“Alyssa was great with my dog! He seemed right at home with her and her family when I picked him up. Alyssa was great with communication and flexible with drop off when my work schedule interfered with our original plan. Will definitely have Alyssa watch my dog if she’s available in the future.”


12. Thao L.
“Thao was amazing! She took great care of my dog, kept me updated with cute photos and short clips of their time together. I have very specific needs for my dog bc of his diet and his habits and she followed all my instructions perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable hands. Highly recommend!”


13. An L.

“Thanks so much for taking good care of our two dogs! The daily photos were wonderful and we were always happy to see our doggies enjoying themselves. Also, we appreciate the open line of communication :)”


14. Grace W.

“If I could give 6 stars I would! Grace and her family went way out of their way to make sure Yoshi had a good time while I was away. Yoshi is almost 19, standoffish, and weird, but Grace made him so happy and paid him so much attention I think he was almost sad to leave! I will definitely use Grace for my boarding needs again because she was fantastic. Can’t recommend her highly enough!”

20. Jing L.
“I'm always amazed by Jing's ability to take such good care of the furry friends - She has 2 cats for 10+ years and also 2 dogs now for 1+ years. The dogs are trained so well behaved, and excited to play with us human. Also the food she makes for the dogs are sooo good. Every time Jing explains what she's making for the dogs, I feel like I'm eating dogfood and the dogs are eating real proper food.”
