“We did a meet and great with Ivan and my dog felt comfortable with him. He does have a dog and I was excited for my pup to have a playmate during her visit. He was flexible with the drop off and pick up. His home was safe for a dog and he has a fenced in back yard. He sent pictures of my pup in various places in his home, yard and on a walk.”
About: I have a cat and dog at my other house and my sister has a horse. I also used to have parakeets and another dog years ago who unfortunately passed. Im currently on summer break from college so I have a ton of free time and am at home majority of the day. When I do leave it is usually to get food, go to the gym, or see friends which is never more than 4 hours at a time. I am able to take them out on walks and feed them when they need to be. I also enjoy spending time with dogs and their company. Half acre lot. Big living room with a fenced in backyard and poolyard.
“This was the first time we left our pups for a whole week and we missed them so much but judging by the daily photos we received and all the snuggles they were getting they have acquired another family!”
“Gail treated our dog like he is her’s. She gave updates with pictures and videos regularly. Our dog looked like he had a good time! Gail is super friendly and accommodating. Would definitely book her again in the future. 10 out of 10, 5 stars!!!”
About: We are a family of four (kids are 12 and 15), plus Nash our 6 year old Australian Shepard who loves walks and snuggles. Before Nash (and even before kids!), we had Riley, our sweet black lab who left us too soon. Over the years, we have fostered dogs, cared for our friends' dogs, given millions of belly rubs and logged many miles of dog walks around our lovely neighborhood. We'll provide a caring and friendly environment, a fenced in backyard and a built-in furry playmate! I have an irregular schedule, but work from home >50% of the time. Both kids loves dogs and can also help in the afternoons and on weekends. We'll provide pics of your pup playing and on walks. Your pup will have a fenced-in yard and run of the house to play and rest. We will follow whatever schedule they are used to, can have them play with our dog or provide separation if you prefer. While the kids may help, all pup care will be done 100% by me.
“Wenyan has been a wonderful dog sitter for our Labrador, Miles. Miles is rarely away from our family, but when we do need someone to look after him, Wenyan is our first choice. She provides great care and attention, making sure he feels comfortable and safe while we’re away. We trust Wenyan completely—her care is always reliable, and it’s clear she genuinely loves what she does. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!”
“Shiva and her family took great care of our dog and you can feel "the passion in the air". We received pictures and Shiva was flexible and kind and I am looking forward to another visit!”
“Dami took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. When my cat threw up unexpectedly, Dami called me right away to let me know and make sure I was informed about how she was doing. Dami is attentive, responsible, and clearly cares deeply about the animals she looks after. I felt completely comfortable knowing my cat was in her care, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pet. I would absolutely book with Dami again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter or dog walker.”
“Titan was immediately comfortable with Robin, and we were worry-free during our 8-day vacation. Robin kept us up to date on how Titan was doing and sent pictures, which we really appreciated. We will definitely think of Robin in the future when Titan needs daycare or boarding. Thanks for a great stay!”
“Thank you Karen for taking such amazing care of Bandit over the holidays! Knowing my pup was in such loving and capable hands gave me peace of mind while I was away. The updates, attention to detail, and genuine care you provided were above and beyond. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Shoham is excellent! She took great care of Bonnie, kept us constantly updated with pictures and videos daily. She has a safe fenced yard and is very understanding.”
“Elena was diligent in sending daily updates on how Ollie was doing throughout his stay in her home. She was flexible when I needed to alter the dates booked. Ollie's needs were met and his demeanor showed me that he was comfortable with her and her home. I would be happy to have her care for Ollie again in the future.”
“Sophia is a very good dog sitter, she knows how to make them happy. My beagle has never been boarded before but I left him with Sophia on our family camping weekend with some worries. But Sophia kept sending the pics of my dog to ensure that he was in a good hand. Great jobs!!! ”
“Bianca is fabulous. She is kind, loving, competent, caring. She was attentive to my tiny, anxious, elderly dog's needs. Bianca adjusted and adapted what I'd shared with her so that it worked in her home, e.g., my dog wouldn't eat with the same set-up as I use so Bianca tried out different ways until my dog finally ate. I was curious to see how Bianca's cat would be with my dog. At the meet & greet they calmly sized each other up. During the stay Bianca shared a lovely photo of my dog snuggled on her sofa with her cat on the armrest. Nice, mellow companions. I was thoroughly comfortable leaving my dog in Bianca's care and will absolutely do so again when I go out of town and can't bring my dog with me.”

Andrea and Michael were wonderful hosts for our two dogs! Our lab is a bit introverted but they made her feel right at home and both dogs were very happy in the photos they sent and when we came for pickup. We had a last minute adjustment on our drop off time and they were wonderfully accommodating. I’m so grateful that they took such good care of our sweet girls!
We left Mr Buttons with Yi for a whole week, while we were on vacation & boy, did he have a blast!! Yi kept us updated with lots of videos & photos and was very prompt in responding to our messages. We are long time repeat clients & whole heartedly recommend Yi, esp if you are looking for a caring home for your small dog.
Jihae always takes such loving care of our pups. I can see the regular walks on the Fi app becausr she let's us plug in the bases at her place. She sends pics every day while we are away as well as little updates on their activities. We are so happy we found her, and our doggos seem to be happy too.
We are extremely fortunate to have found Robin. She has watched our little guy for many years. We find Robin to be an extremely thoughtful caregiver with expertise in caring for and raising dogs. I trust her implicitly. Additionally, our guy has extreme anxiety, but he is always happy to be with Robin and her pups. Without Robin to take care of our pup, I don't think we would ever leave town.
Yulan is an exceptional sitter! She is very responsive, flexible, and friendly. She was able to accommodate to changing schedules with so much understanding. She took great care of Myla and sent daily updates with pictures and videos. I definitely trust her with Myla and will book her again.
Maddy is awesome! She was happy to take time to meet us before booking and was so caring towards our dog Kali from the start. She is responsive, sends great pictures, and has a fun dog of her own to keep your pup company. Maddy is flexible, reliable, and accommodating. So glad we found her and you will be also!
Jennifer is a pet owner's dream come true! She is punctual with her feedback, easy to work with and most of all extremely caring. She definitely will be our first choice going forward. We are so happy we found her. We picked up Dudley super happy, well taken care of and on a walking schedule we are trying to maintain. :) We cannot thank her enough!
