“Steven is great! He is super responsive and makes sure that his guests are treated like family. Loki had a great time and we will definitely use him again.”


“Bella really enjoyed herself. They were incredibly kind and they sent me many pictures and videos. It was clear from that that Bella was really having a good time. The next time I go away I would definitely use them”


“Whitney and Michael were so welcoming to our labradoodle, Georgy! Georgy loved hanging out with their two dogs. She seemed to really be treated like part of the family.”


“Jamie was very attentive to Peaches and made sure she stayed with her during the day even though I booked her pretty last-minute. She provided updates and photos of Peaches during her stay, and it was clear Peaches was comfortable with her. Jamie clearly adores caring for dogs and making sure they feel secure. We are grateful we found you, Jamie!”


“So thankful to Mary and Kyle for always taking such good care of my furbaby! Muffin has heart issues and separation anxiety, so when I have to go out for a long time, I know Mary and Kyle will take good care of her, making sure she gets her meds on time, feeding and walking her regularly, and giving her lots of love!”


“This was our first time using a pet sitter for Shibu (a Shih-Tsu) as we took our 3 week vacation. We couldn't be happier with how well Kimberly took care of her. Kim sent us regular pics and Shibu looked always active and happy, so we knew she was being well cared for. she has a fenced in backyard which is a major plus. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”


“So we were travelling out of town for almost a week and our previous experience (at a dog boarding place) was not pleasant. So we were a little worried at how Keenu (our Australian shepherd dog) would react. But Indrani made Keenu extremely comfortable. On the day when it rained during his stay, he was indoors with walks in the evening. And on other days he enjoyed the backyard as well. Indrani’s regular msgs/pics/videos really put us at ease as well to enjoy our short vacation. Will definitely reach out to her next time for an overnight stay for Keenu.”


“Kristen did a fabulous job, she is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog had a great vacation in her place. She took a fantastic care of him. She regularly updated me with pictures and videos. She kept me posted frequently and that helped a lot. Thank you so much Kristen and I would love to be a repeat customer for my pet and greatly recommend her. Thanks again.”


“Anish is an excellent care giver..!! My dog loved staying with him, enjoyed his beautiful backyard and meticulous care..!! Would highly recommend him.”


“Ivania was great! Quick to respond, highly communicative, and very accommodating! We left our bulldog, Bella, with her for almost 5 days and it seemed like Bella was very much taken care of and loved while we were gone! I would absolutely use Ivania again.”



“Nams has a calmed demeanor that instantly connects with pets. Snowy immediately knew she was in a safe and friendly environment. Very professional. I would definitely recommend her.”


“Jackie is the best sitter for your dog if you need peace of mind, safety, love, accountability, and everything that is needed for a great dogsitter! We were very nervous about leaving our baby and visited many dog sitters before finding Jackie. Immediately we trusted her and saw in her the warmth and attention and professionalism that we needed. She is well knowledged with all dogs and works with you and according to your specific dog's needs. Her home is a perfect environment and she communicates wonderfully. She is a responsible and calm sitter who will present you with zero red flags. Most importantly is the peace of mind you will get knowing that your dog is getting the protection and the love and caring warmth that you can just sense. Affection. Our dog sensed her safety and love and took to her right away (which he rarely does with new people) It is hard to find that peace of mind especially if your dog is a child to you. Trust me completely. Jackie saved us from worry and nothing means more than knowing that your pet will get loved and cared for and treated the way you treat your pet yourself. She is affectionate and sweet and also relaxed enough to allow your dog to sleep with her and take over the home...being "chill" is also important because you dont want your dog to suddenly have strict rules and to be afraid of a new environment with new rules. Jackie is very relaxed and will not be strict or demanding of your dog. She is attentive to the food needs, senior needs, bathroom habits, anything that is needed she attends to. But in a gentle and correct way. We didn't want our dog to suddenly be in a strict environment with a strict new person. She provides the opposite. Just a safe and loving home... but with a sitter that watches your dog and provides the care ..not halfway but whole and responsibly. I am a worried and concerned and judgemental dog mom who wanted only the best for our baby. I was naturally wary of who I was choosing since it meant so much. So believe me completely when I tell you that if you are discerning too ..but want a wonderful, warm, safe, professional environment for peace of mind and a good home while you are away so you dont have to call a million times and worry and wonder... Jackie is the answer. We will leave him with her in a heartbeat again without any worries. Nothing can buy peace of mind and trust. She was a true find for us. We got lucky.”


“Victoria has been such a gift to my dog Tabb and I. I am temporarily in the area for work and Victoria walks my 15yo terrier Tabb. She also was willing to watch Tabb for a few days while I was away. She has been kind, responsive, punctual, and accommodating. I highly recommend her.”


“Michelle took good care of my pup. She sent plenty of pictures & kept my pup happy. I definitely will be bringing my little dog to her again!”


“Thanks Carly and family for taking care of Neo and Cleo ! Both my dog and cat seemed to have enjoyed their stay at your home. Nothing is better than seeing your furry friends happy, safe and comfortable on your return after 8 days !!!”


“Our pup had a great stay. We received daily photo updates that were reassuring and made us very comfortable with his time with Tao. Very professional and it’s obvious that they love dogs and take great care of them. Thank you!”


“We left Keenu with Noria for the whole day. And he loved it. She was very nice and accommodative of my timings (as it was a work day). Her loads of pics and videos about Keenu’s well being were well appreciated throughout the day. We will definitely reach out again to her for our next dog sitting need. Thank you !”


“Angela and her family took excellent care of our little dog for 7 days. She was sending daily photo updates and she was always very responsive. I would book her services again.”


“Renee was an amazing dog sitter. We were very nervous about dropping our dog off for someone strange to watch ber. Mopsy was treated as a person and not a dog. Renee left wonderful detail messages and sent pictures. We were comforted that our Mopsy was being loved. I highly recommend Renee!!!”


“Ajanay is the best!! We needed a sitter urgently, and within 2hours of booking, Chester was at Ajanays house for three days! I would highly recommend leaving your fur babies with her as she will take great care! Thank you so much Ajanay, we have found our sitter for future :)”
