“Lola returned for her 2nd stay with Aeli. Again was a terrific experience from drop off to pick up. There is no doubt Lola enjoyed her stay and was very well taken care of. Thank you Aeli for caring for our Lola!!! Would definitely book another stay with Aeli.”

“Christina and her husband Nick were amazing! She had questions ready prior to the booking to insure the best care for my dog Marley, she sent me constant update and pictures, and made me feel super comfortable. I will definitely be booking with Christina again! Marley loved both of them and I’m sure he looks forward to seeing them again.”

“This was the first time I was boarding my almost 13 year old anxious rescue dog. I was quite nervous but Lauryn eased my mind from the meet and greet a few weeks before. It was obvious how much she cared for dogs. My Shiloh was with Lauryn for 9 nights and did so well. Lauryn sent me pictures everyday and it was clear Shiloh made himself at home and was well cared for. The 9 nights included an unexpected night due to a flight cancellation. Lauryn was flexible and gladly cared for Shiloh for another night. Lauryn's home was very nice and accommodating for dogs and she is in a safe residential town. I know Shiloh misses her already and I look forward to having Lauryn sit for Shiloh again.”

“Absolutely fantastic! My furbaby instantly felt comfortable with Evelien and so did I! Got consistent updates and had prompt communication. Such a peace of mind when going away.. will definitely be booking again!! Thank you!!! 🩷”

“Thank you so much for your wonderful care of my dog!! Moonyoung and her husband Sunhyung are so fantastic. Crystal really loved staying and playing with them. They took excellent care of my dog, ensuring she could rest in complete comfort after a tiring long distance journey. I am grateful for the unforgettable photos they have captured with truly exquisite skill. Best sitter ever!! Would definitely recommend!”

“Camila was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with photos and videos and took such great care of Winnie. Her dog Milo was also amazing—he and Winnie got along so well and played together perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing Winnie was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again—couldn’t be happier with the experience!”

“I wanted to share how awesome Yesenia is! She's such a sweet person and her home is always clean and tidy. Plus, her back yard is amazing - my dog absolutely loves it! Whenever I have any questions or need to make a last minute drop off, Yesenia is super quick to respond and always saves the day. I highly recommend her. She's the best!”

“Karla was incredible!!! This was our first time leaving our puppy with a dog sitter so we were super nervous but Karla was so friendly and reassured us constantly. She sent us tons of photos and kept us up to date on how he was doing. Our puppy is a little shy but he took to Karla super fast when they first met! He had tons of play time and made so many friends! He was so happy running around in the yard and we could tell he was having a wonderful time! Thank you so much Karla for making this such a great and positive experience for us :) we will be booking with you when we go traveling again for sure :) many many thanks !!!”

“Stephanie was amazing with our pup! She is friendly, communicative and flexible. She sent us multiple pictures daily to ease our minds that our buddy was in good hands. He loved his time there with Stephanie and Toby so much that he didn’t want to come back home with us 🤣”

“Elizabeth & Oleg took wonderful care of May over Memorial Day weekend! They were fantastic with her and kept us updated throughout the weekend with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear May was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We came home to a very happy pup! We would absolutely trust Elizabeth & Oleg to watch May again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable dog sitters.”

“I will give Kate 10/10 I can feel when I picked up my dog ,my furry daughter had been taken care of. And she keep me updated everyday which is amazing. And my dog is old and not many Dogsitter really know how to take care of old dog due to my previous experience of dog sitter. I just rebook Kate again for my upcoming gateway family and I feel assured that my dog will feels like home with her.”

“Ann took very good care of my puppy! She kept me updated on how he was doing and sent me pictures & videos all throughout the stay. I was happy to see him having a good time with Ann and her family. Would definitely use her again. Thanks Ann!!”
“Maggie enjoyed her stay with Carolina! I felt very comfortable leaving Maggie there. I received updates and pictures during her stay. She also enjoyed playing with her dog Daisy! I will definitely be using Carolina again! Thank you so much Carolina for taking such good care of Maggie during her stay!”

“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”

“Denise was a god sent ! She helped us out by picking Louie up and watching him last minute after our dog sitter had a death in her family , and I was away on vacation ! Highly recommend -l”

“She’s fantastic! Michelle ensures that your animal is loved, care for - takes time to feed and do the routines that your dog has daily. She has a super clean home with an area just for your dog that makes you feel like it’s a doggy hotel! Nameplate and first time sitter certificate was a nice touch. We received many updates of all kinds - videos, pictures and texts throughout her stay. Her own dogs are lovely and kept Lulu active and entertained (she s a puppy so it was great!). We plan on booking her again if available and would recommend her to everyone! Thank you, Michelle!!”


“Cathy is the absolute Best! My puppy is a very picky eater and Cathy goes out of her way to make sure she eats! I swear my dog was smiling when I picked her up. Best sitter ever! Let's not forget all the pic updates we get ❤️Thank you Cathy!”

“I was very with Chialing care for my baby Lola. She kept us updated. Send this pictures videos. Lola actually walked with no leash and they are run away so I’m happy with that. Her care her time and to keep up letting us know how everything was going was excellent. I would definitely definitely use her again to babysit my baby dog Lola. Thank you so much for your care and your love and your attention.”

“Thor has stayed with Kun, his partner and Som and more times than I can count and Thor NEVER wants to leave. They consistently update you with pictures, ask dietary related questions prior to giving any treats and are all in all outstanding communicators. They’ve helped me out last minute so many times and the appreciation is massive! Thank you guys!!”

“I had the pleasure of booking Kevin for a life-saving last minute booking and not only did he make it work with zero complaints but he was absolutely phenomenal with my little bud. Amazing with his communication as well as updates and pictures/videos ! I was so glad to hear that he was able to manage with such little time how to maneuver with my sometimes odd and overly energetic pup. Highly recommend to others and will be booking again 🥰”

My dog stayed with Andrew for a week and it was the best boarding/overnight stay we’ve had to date. Andrew kept him busy with a variety of activities and was very thoughtful about pairing him up with dogs of compatible temperaments for play/social time. Andrew provided regular updates throughout the week and our dog returned home happy and relaxed.

Camila is an amazing dog sitter. She has a friendly personality and her husband is just as awesome. They cared and took care of my American bully of 5 years which he warmed up to them wonderfully. Camila always sent picture updates of my dog, which was great to have a good price of mind. I would definitely recommend her services again!

We left our maltipoo with Moonyoung and Sunhyung for the longest we have ever left her. We were admittedly very nervous at first, but were immediately put at ease. Our dog was not doing so well with the adjustment the first few days and was having some GI problems, but they were so patient, kind, and caring with her and nursed her back to health while communicating with us the whole time. I could tell our pup was so comfortable and happy with them once she felt better- and it made my time away so much more enjoyable and relaxed. Don’t hesitate to book - they are such great and kind people!

Vinny took amazing care of Buddy and really went above and beyond to make sure Buddy was comfortable and had everything he needed. It looks like Buddy had such a great time and really settled in. Vinny was very flexible, communicative and provided great updates throughout Buddy’s stay. Thank you very much, Vinny!
