“Mitsy had a great time with Bennie and Jennie! They were sure to keep me updated with lots of pictures and cute videos :) They were super attentive to her schedule and quirks and overall made the experience really good. We will definitely be returning in the future!”


“Donovan took care of our puppy for a week. I was so nervous leaving him for the first time. Donovan kept us updated daily and sent videos and pics. Oreo was well taken care of. Very grateful for Donovan!”


“Diana watched Rocky for us for an extended long weekend and she was absolutely wonderful. She gave Rocky all the love, care and attention and we felt totally comfortable leaving him in her care. She provided daily updates and pictures and we could see that he was happy, comfortable and being well taken care of. When we had to deal with travel issues on our way home, Diana was extremely flexible, which was much appreciated. We will definitely book with Diana again!”



“Al and his wife took exceptional care of our dog Stella. We were visiting from out of state and Al was flexible with drop off and pick up time. Stella got to go with them to line dancing. She was loved and treated like their own. Real special dog caregivers. Thank you!!!”


“Alvaro took great care of my dog, Misha! He gave daily photo updates to show the furball living his best life at the apartment. I had no worries and my dog was in great shape and spirits when I picked him up!”


“Patricia was an absolute blessing! We needed a boarder for a last min tire trip and she ensured us that our girl Kona would be safe and happy with her. Patricia sent us lots of pics and updates and even socialized her with one of her cats! She made us very comfortable that she’d be in good hands once we left. We will absolutely be using her again <3”


“Amazing experience. Chris is everything you want out of a Dog sitter. We left out dog with Chris for 2 days while we were visiting Disney. Chris was more than accommodating and flexible with out needs. He kept us updated and even sent a few pictures throughout the day. We were very nervous at first as our puppy can be defensive. He warmed up to Chris very quickly. He will be our sitter moving forward for any future southern ca visits. Even taught our dog how to use a doggy door 😀”


“Bernard & Hung took great care of Mintz and Marshmallow. They were kind, communicative, and flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, which I really appreciated. They kept me updated throughout the day, including when one of the dogs had a minor accident—they handled it with care and reassured me. By the second day, both dogs were visibly happier, more energetic, and eating well again. Their space was clean, peaceful, and dog-friendly, with a lovely garden area. The photos they shared made it clear the dogs were comfortable and well cared for. Highly recommend and would definitely book again when we’re back in the area!”


“Mai is an exceptional dog sitter. She exceeded my expectations. Not only was she kind and patient with my young dog, she was knowledgeable, creative and engaging. She provided leash training, interactive play with my dog’s favorite toys, multiple walks a day and play time at a dog park with agility like structures. In addition, she took extra time and effort to send me daily text updates, observations of her eating habits, as well as videos and pictures. As an owner and first time customer, I was happy and reassured to see my dog having so much fun and receiving such thoughtful care. Thank you Mai. You’re the best!”


“Bodie loves his time with Kev Ash and their corgi Colby!! They take amazing care of him and are great communicators, we get tons of pics and Bodie gets tons of exercise (so hard to tire out a malinois!). They were super flexible with travel plan changes last minute.”


“Freddie was very professional. He took real good care of Ziggy. He's an active gentleman which provided the needed exercise for Ziggy, probably more than what he gets at home :) He was promot to respond to my texts and calls and also sent me pictures. I would have liked it if they were more proactive but neverthless he did always respond so I didnt mind reaching out first. I would surely recommend booking with Freddie, I would definitely use him again in the future.”



“After doing some research, we decided to have Sunny be the first sitter ever for our dog Boomer based on the reviews. I will say that the reviews did not lie at all as Sunny was simply amazing! She sent us updates and pictures (even one with Boomer wearing a Happy New Year headband) and got back to us lightning quick if we had a question. We could tell Boomer had a great time there having fun with Sunny and the other dogs she was watching. I’m glad Boomer found his sitter on the first try!”


“Nancy and Rick provided loving, attentive care to our Rex. During our weeklong trip, we received updates and photos of Rex. It was a worry free experience for the second time with Nancy and Rick. Thank you!”

“I recently moved out to a different area and I was worried about finding a sitter who could take care of my reactive pup but my dog bloo really loves going to Alison. She’s great with communicating and providing videos/photos during boarding and I feel relieved knowing I can bring my dog to her whenever I need. She was flexible and watched my dog even when she was busy with work, she also let me know bloo was a pleasure to have around and that’s always nice to hear. I’ve never seen her so excited to see any other sitter and it’s nice to see how much she cares for bloo. I can tell my dog bloo really likes Alison, and I do too! i highly recommend her and will definitely bring bloo back whenever I need the help!”


“Roman did an excellent job with my German Shepherd dog Bitsey. He cared for her, walked her made sure she was very well taken care of. He made sure she was well fed and happy and I was extremely pleased with the level of service and care given by Roman.”

Nozima exceeded all our expectations. She kept us constantly updated with photos and videos and was super responsive. Her daughter really bonded with our dogs too. It honestly felt like our pups were on a little vacation themselves. We’d happily book with Nozima and her daughter again anytime! :)

Thank you Cindy and family for doing such an awesome job of watching Kumi while we were on vacation in Hawaii! The daily pics of her were extra special because I missed her so much. She really got the royal treatment lol..... seeing her lounging on the couch with your family. Thanks again so much for being her home away from home!

We needed someone to watch our fur babies for 3+ weeks so really wanted to find someone amazing and boy we got lucky! Diana took such great care of them that they basically got their own vacation while we were on our vacation! She sent me pics/videos/updates about what they like to do daily which put us at ease. My kids looked forward to Diana’s daily updates:) We already rebooked her for our next vacation!

10/10 stars!!! Chris and his dogs, Odin and Max were a PERFECT match for my high energy, 60lb, super playful boy, Cash! 🥰❤️ My husband and I left for 2 weeks for our wedding & honeymoon and we wanted Cash to be somewhere with lots of doggy playtime and human interaction. Chris has a large yard area for dogs to run around in and mentioned he doesn’t crate unless requested by the owner. We couldn’t have found a better home for him! All of the dogs got along so well and become besties!!! 😍 Chris provided multiple updates throughout the day. We received lots of videos of Cash playing or snuggling with either Chris or his boys. 🥰 great communication which I truly value! we could tell Cash was having so much fun and received lots of love during his stay. 😊 We would 100% board with Chris again next time! He is experienced with handling large, high energy dogs. Thank you Chris!!!

Laarni was a wonderful and reliable dog sitter. She communicated clearly, sent regular updates, and was very flexible with our schedule and any changes. She genuinely cared for our dog and made sure all her needs were met with love and attention. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. Highly recommended!

Joey took excellent care of my two pups while we were gone for 5 nights. Unfortunately, my dogs don't make the best first impression and can display aggressive behaviors, so I always get nervous when they meet new people. Before booking, Joey took the time to answer all of my questions over the phone and to meet us in his home to make sure we felt comfortable. When my dogs first met Joey, I was surprised that they immediately took to him, his partner, and his roommate and were even comfortable being picked up by him. Joey is truly a dog whisperer! Right away, I felt at ease with leaving my dogs in Joey's hands. His home is very spacious, he asked great questions related to their care, he was flexible about the pickup and drop-off times, he along with everyone in the home is clearly a dog lover, and he kept me reassured with photos and updates. I would definitely book with Joey again. Highly recommend!!

My baby puppy Sherlock stayed with Kim for 4days, Kim really care about Sherlock including his picky taste. 😊😅👍 The main reason that I asked to Kim about Sherlock’s boarding was Kim and her husband could stay with puppies most of their time, thanks to they working at home. And yes, through the photos and videos that Kim sent to me, I can see that Sherlock is doing ok and feels comfortable with Kim, her husband and her puppy. Thank you so much Kim, and hope to see you again 😊!
