“Our young dog loves spending time with May and Marc. They are attentive and apadtive to her needs as a dog and keep me updated thought-out her stay. I would definitely recommend them as wonderful hosts for your furry friend!”


“Diana was absolutely fabulous and wonderful host. Mimi had an amazing time with her and her furry pals. We got regular updates (pictures and videos ) and Diana kept us in loop at all times with her food intake , walks and how things were progressing. I would love to leave Mimi again with her if there any such opportunity, as I know and trust Diana.”


“If you are on the fence— let this be your sign to book Apple!! She is absolutely wonderful. It was our first time using Rover, as our usual sitter moved away, and I was a bit nervous that I wasn’t going to find someone who I trusted. But when I first Apple, she immediately relieved that anxiety. My pups had so much fun and got so much love. We will be back!”


“We found Angela and her husband to be excellent sitters. From the initial contact, through a timely meet and greet to a happy stay for Kenya, all went smoothly and comfortably. Angela always responded promptly to any inquiries I had prior to the stay and was super flexible in agreeing to a change in the pick-up time. She sent multiple photos and it was apparent that Kenya was happy and comfortable in her temporary home. We will definitely take Kenya there again.”


“Exceptional care for our puppy! What a thoughtful and lovely family!!! We will return! Our dog Oakley felt happy and secure. Michelle kept us updated with videos and photos of our dog. Fantastic and compassionate people!”


“Honeybear was well loved and cared for at Danielle’s house!! Great communication, prompt responses, and asked great questions to get to know Honeybear. I’m glad we found Danielle and can’t wait to be back!”


“Kristen is the best! Sandy had a great time. She was given plenty of outdoor play time and indoor cuddles, and we received lots of updates and pics. Spending time with Kristen’s sweet dogs boosted her confidence with other dogs.”


“Justin and his family were great with our dog Goosie. They were pleasant and communicative and stepped up immediately when Goosie became ill and needed to go to the vet. Couldn't have asked for anything better. Thanks so much!”


“Ann was great! She did a meet and greet to make sure we were all comfortable. When she watched our puppy, she sent periodic updates so we knew things were going well and he was having a good time. Would definitely book with Ann again!”


“This is our second time to have Gris board our dog, and she was absolutely great! She took really good care of our dog, sent lots of pictures. Our dog had so much fun with other doggie friends.”


“I can’t say enough good things about Maya and her husband. They are absolutely wonderful, kind, attentive, and truly passionate about caring for animals. From the moment I met them in the middle of the night, I knew my senior-ita, almost 15 years old fur baby 🐕was in the best hands. Their calm energy and genuine love for animals instantly put both me and my dog at ease. Throughout the stay, they kept me updated with thoughtful messages and adorable pics, which gave me so much peace of mind. My Abby was clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for — it was like a vacation for her, too! It’s rare to find sitters who treat your pet like family, but that’s exactly what Maya and her husband do. I feel incredibly lucky to have found them, and I would trust them again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you so much, Maya”


“Michael is a great Rober and I thank him and his family so much for taking great care of MG. He had great time with them and other doggy friends and I can definitely see he had a great time while we were away. Michael is very loving and responsible carer so highly recommended. We will definitely come back in the future.”


“Gelare and Sama are wonderful pet sitters! We could tell through all the pictures and videos that Gelare took very good care of our little pup. From playing catch to tummy rubs, we were sure our pup was getting all the love and attention we were hoping for! Would highly recommend!”


“Priscila was excellent at ensuring my Lana had a great experience. From her outdoor activities, beach day, and play time it all contributed to Lana having a Great time. Priscila was awesome at providing pictures and video to update how my dog was doing. Thank you 👍”


“We’ve relied on Kris as our trusted dog sitter for a few stays now, and she never disappoints. She and her family treat Oakley like one of their own, and he’s always so excited to visit and play fetch with them. We have total peace of mind knowing he’s in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”


“I had a wonderful experience with Alana and her husband as pet sitters for my dog, Terry. They were incredibly attentive and caring throughout the entire stay. I received daily updates and photos, and they paid close attention to all the small details to ensure Terry felt comfortable, especially with his eating and sleeping routines. What truly stood out was Terry’s reaction when I came to pick him up. He was happy and relaxed, and—something he had never done with previous sitters—he went back to Alana and her husband to say goodbye with a smile and a kiss. It was clear he felt safe and well cared for. I highly recommend Alana and her husband to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet care, and I would not hesitate to leave Terry with them again in the future.”


“Our pup Mabel stayed with Kimberly for a second time. Kimberly was super flexible with scheduling on short notice and takes the best care of Mabel. We’re so happy we found Kimberly!”

We could tell our dog was very comfortable and happy the entire time. We are so happy to have found Cherie. This is the first time we have had to use a dog sitter and the experience couldn’t have been better. We will definitely be using Cherie again in our future!”
