“May is definitely my new pet sitter. She was accommodating and flexible and went thr extra mile to help me (in a pinch). I have a sensitive pup and I can tell when he came home he had been having a good time. Happy pup. She even dropped my lil guy off for me because i was stuck in a work meeting. Very friendly dog loving people. Thanks May! Will definitely use again.”
“Hands down my go to for pet sitting. Amazing communication and great pictures to keep your mind at ease while away. For sure will use in the future for pet sitting. 10 out of 10!”
“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“Thank you Kimberly (and family) for taking such great care of Sol and Sierra. The dogs are always so happy to stay with you and are practically leaping out of the car when we round the corner. We are so lucky to have found Kimberly who has watched our dogs many times over the past 4 years. The dogs are always well cared for and we receive lots of cute photos. We can't say enough to express our appreciation for the care provided for Sol and Sierra!”
“I give Mayank and his family a FIVE star review all the time. They send pictures, updates. Zazzle is so happy to be with Myank and his family. Their daughter Pia loves all the four legged guests. Zazzle has dogs to play with, get tuckered out. Can't get better than this. Thanks to Mayank and family.”
“Michael went above and beyond with Ollie, taking on the task of bringing him to our wedding for photos during his boarding stay. We are so grateful for his willingness to do this and the special memories we’ll get. Highly recommend him!”
“I think our dog had more fun during our vacation than we did! Linda and Zach were great. They sent lots of updates and were very accommodating with a last-minute schedule change. Our dog came home happy and tired after so much fun play time. We would definitely use them again.”
“Sana did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day with timely photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. My pup seemed happy, well-cared-for and very comfortable with Sana and her family . Highly recommended for reliability, communication, and genuine care.”
“Ankea understands dogs so well - and is super kind and gentle with them. My dog is a rescue and not the easiest to deal with. She won him over instantly. Thank you for your kindness and care!”
“I will never look any further for a dog sitter only Diana! Diana is amazing!! Seriously, if you have smaller dogs she makes them feel like they’re right at home! Everyday she sent me videos and pictures of my dogs. She even groomed them and took them on constant walks everyday! Diana is such a dog lover and it made me feel so safe leaving them with her. The dogs absolutely loved her back yard and were worn out everyday from playing. She’s very accommodating as well to your dogs needs. By the time I picked my dogs up they were so sad to leave ! I’m definitely going to be booking with her from now on.”
“Annie & Ty are amazing! Your dog will feel home with them. Their care for our dog was above and beyond. If they’re available, book them, don’t hesitate!”
“Olivia and Sebastien took great care of our dog Mowgli! They were super responsive, kept the dogs very active, and shared lots of updates throughout the weekend. Their dog was great company for our pup and our dog seemed to really love staying with them, would recommend to anyone!”
“Tiffany was so helpful with taking care of our pup. The photo updates she sent everyday were so cute. We knew our suki was in good hands. Highly recommend Tiffany to anyone looking for a great dog sitter.”
“Winnie came home happy and calm. With our previous sitter, she was often anxious and it took an adjustment period to settle back in. After being in Claire's care, Winnie was noticeably relaxed and herself, not stressed. Claire communicated regularly and kept us informed how things were going. We will definitely reach out for Claire's help again.”
“Sandy is awesome took care both of my dogs while we were out of town until the next day, 100% totally recommended. We'll absolutely book again next time. Thank you very much Sandy,”
“Kris and Dan were amazing with my dog, Maple! They even offered a complimentary few hours beforehand so Maple could get comfortable with their home, which I really appreciated. While I was away, they sent me photo updates and were very responsive whenever I checked in. Maple seemed so happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful pet sitters!”
“Roy always has so much fun with Vadym, Svitlana and Gregory. He comes back very excited and happy! And when I take him back to their house, he is always excited to see them and be back. They are very communicative sending pictures and telling me that everything is going good when I am on a trip. We Highly recommend!!”
“Danielle and her family took great care of our little Coconut. It was Coconut’s first time being away from us so we were worried about her, but Danielle did well to socialize Coconut with her own dogs. Coconut never likes staying on the sofa and she managed to cuddle with their family on the couch. We got plenty of updates and photos of our little girl while we were out of town so it assuaged our worries greatly. I highly recommend Danielle for anyone!”

Kari was amazing with Britt! This was our first time leaving Britt with a caregiver, and we felt very comfortable leaving her for a long weekend. Kari sent regular photos, took Britt on 2 daily walks, and truly treated her like her own dog. Her family also embraced Britt with open arms. We would definitely use Kari's services again!
Pavla was wonderful with our pup who usually has separation anxiety with dog sitters. She kept him for several days while we were out of town and made him feel at home right away! Pavla's teenage son and daughter were also at home to play and cuddle with our pup, so he got lots of love and attention. Pavla was great with communication, sending messages and photos so we knew our dog was happy and feeling loved. When we picked up our pup, he was healthy and happy and obviously had a great stay with Pavla! We highly recommend her and would be eager to use her again when we go out of town. Thank you Pavla!!
Jinny took amazing care of Cacao for two weeks. She shared updates and photos every day, which was so reassuring, and it’s very clear how much she genuinely loves dogs. Cacao had a great time with her. Jinny was communicative, accommodating, and thoughtful throughout. I’d highly recommend her and her family to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
Jennifer is an excellent Rover! She is very professional and has great communication skills. She was attentive to my pup's needs, providing regular updates and ensuring he was well cared for. Her home is also very well-equipped for dog care. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
I had never left our dog in anyone’s care since getting him 7 years ago but within minutes I felt assured and confident with him in her care. She has a true love of animals in general and particularly dogs. Angie is a gem! I did not worry at all while we were on our trip. This was a huge relief and will for sure be using her again when we travel.
