I highly recommend German and will definitely be using his services again!”

“Kanade is one of the best sitters I’ve ever booked for Apollo. She was extremely communicative throughout, sent loads of photos and videos, and gave me updates each evening. She and her partner took Apollo out for playtime and gave him lots of snuggles during his stay. They even threw him a little birthday party with extra play time and treats! She was also very flexible with pickup timing. Overall would love to use her services again in the future.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Joseph as a dog sitter! He was absolutely wonderful with my dog Koola. From the start, Joseph was interactive and engaging-Koola instantly took to him. Throughout the stay, Joseph kept us updated with great videos and pictures, which really put our mind at ease. It was so nice to seeing Koola having fun while we was away. Joseph even took Koola to the park for some extra exercise and playtime Koola had such a blast! It's clear that Joseph truly loves and understand dogs. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with Joseph again!”

It was our first time leaving her and we had peace of mind leaving her with them. We will definitely be using them in the future.”

Klaire was excellent with Birdie! She was very professional, taking notes on all of Birdie’s care instructions. regularly sent us pictures, which helped our separation anxiety! Klaire’s apartment is also very spacious, so we knew Birdie would be comfortable. She obviously went above and beyond taking care of Birdie’s needs.
I can’t thank Randolph and Ray enough for taking such wonderful care of Oreo, especially on such short notice. They kept me updated with pictures and notes, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Even though Oreo gets a little sad when I’m away, I could tell he was well cared for and loved during his stay. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet sitters. Thank you again. I look forward to booking with you soon!
My golden retriever had the absolute best stay with Illiana. You can tell that she is a dog lover by nature and is very experienced boarding pups. Her dog Luna is awesome and it made me feel so much better knowing he had a playmate--one that would tolerate and embrace a high puppy energy. Illiana's communication is impeccable. We got frequent pictures and videos that showed what a good time he was having. She even took him on an adventure to an outdoor dog park. I 100% recommend Illiana and cannot wait to rebook for our next vacation.
Christina was wonderful with my dog! She takes a little while to warm up to new spaces but Christina was super accommodating and welcoming. She got lots of pets and cuddles and liked looking out the windows. Christina sent lots of pictures and updates which I really appreciated.
this was my puppy’s first time away from home, which i was very nervous about. however Lyly was very reassuring about every step. she kept me up to date, sent plenty of pictures and videos of my pup having a wonderful time. i couldn’t ask for a better person to watch my little baby for his first vacation away from home.
Marquis was a wonderful dog sitter. He spent quality time our girl, taking her to the dog park, walks around the neighborhood, and even let her snuggle on the couch. Marquis was easy to communicate with, reassuring with his knowledge and experience with other pets, and had a calming presence. I would highly recommend him for your furry family!
