“Our dog Bonnie stayed with Theresa for 10 days. She is amazing! I didn’t worry about Bonnie for a second. Theresa was communicative, sent photos, and took great care of our girl. Highly recommend!!”

“Sriju was personable and made me and most importantly, my dog feel comfortable. I could tell he enjoyed being with her. Sriju was amenable to my instructions and gave my dog medicine without concerns. She sent me pictures daily and was approachable and friendly. A friend had recommended her and Sriju was fantastic. She even let my dog sleep with her; I think he behaved better than me. I highly recommend Sriju and thank her for making us feel at peace so we could enjoy our vacation!”


“Min did such an amazing job watching Coco! 🐶 He was so well taken care of. Min kept me updated with plenty of videos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It really showed how much care and attention they gave to Coco. I’m so grateful for their kindness and would absolutely recommend Min to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring! And I will continue to book with him.”

“Carlos and Travis took amazing care of Majesty while I traveled. They were responsive, sent pictures and updates, and made me feel completely comfortable while I was away. Everything there is incredibly organized, and it’s clear they genuinely care. I highly recommend them. Thank you both for taking such great care of my girl!”

“Amazing. They were so caring and their dog is probably the most friendly friend our dog has ever gotten the pleasure of playing and living with over the span of almost a week. We got tons of pictures during the course of the stay, and felt that we were in truly caring hands. Never had a worry. Our dog is definitely looking forward to the next time we send her over lol. 10/10”

“Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.”

“Nelly was great! Very communicative, transparent, and friendly. She took great care of Ralphie and accommodated his special needs like he was her own dog. I would definitely ask Nelly to watch my boy again in the future!”

“Nicole was great with my dog! She took plenty of time to ask thoughtful questions about her habits and behaviors, and took care of her accordingly. She was very prepared and had contingency plans in case our dogs didn’t get along (but they did!) and sent photos and videos throughout the weekend.”

“Highly recommend! We had a very last minute cancellation by our dog sitter for Jeb on the morning of a trip out of town. Very lucky that we found Shahan - she replied right away and was able to take our buddy Jeb with only 2 hours of advance notice! Shoham has a large fenced in backyard, great for pups to get their exercise. She also provided walks and kept me updated on Jeb throughout the weekend. You can tell she is very good with dogs because Jeb was very relaxed when we arrived, and took the time to introduce him to the other dogs visiting to make sure everything was OK. We will definitely be using Shoham again for future doggie visits!”


“Sophia was a great dog sitter for our VERY hyper and fully of energy puppy. She sent photos and messages everyday. Our puppy had a great time with Sophia and her family. I highly recommend her services!”

“Diana and her family took great care of our puppy while we were out of town. She sent daily updates and photos and was quick to respond to messages! We would trust Diana again with Pepper Ann if she is available!”

“Joseph and his wife took amazing care of Kashmere over night. They sent updates through out the entire day/ night with pictures and videos to make sure we knew he was doing ok. Also kept him on schedule for us so there were no issues for us when we got him back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“My two French bulldogs made themselves right at home with Piero and his family. They treated my doggos with great care and attention. It was also a huge plus that someone was always home with my girls. Piero was great with sending pictures and keeping me updated. It was super easy and I will be using him again to watch my dogs. 100 percent recommend - a wonderful sitter!”

“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Edward and Natalia. We had a meet and greet a week prior where they asked a lot of questions and observed Ralphie with their sweet pup, Liz Lemon. I always worry leaving Ralphie with a new Rover. He has been described as “extra” and needs a lot of attention/human presence. Within an hour of dropping him off, I got a note that he is settling in fine with a picture of him cozied up with the family and this eased my mind immensely. They were very responsive when I reached out and had everything ready to go when I picked him up. The biggest testament, however, is Ralphie’s behavior on the drive home. If let’s me know if he didn’t like his stay somewhere, but leaving Natalia and Edward he was calm and well behaved. They deserve this 5-star review and j would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”

“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Ivan was the perfect pet sitter for our small 2 year old shichon, Kona. I was nervous, it being the first time we left him (over a full week!) Ivan was patient with my list of care and also set me at ease with a ton of pictures and updates. His home is lovely and his care is exceptional. I am surprised Kona was willing to come home!! I would use his services again anytime. Thank you!!”

“Andrea and Michael were wonderful hosts for our two dogs! Our lab is a bit introverted but they made her feel right at home and both dogs were very happy in the photos they sent and when we came for pickup. We had a last minute adjustment on our drop off time and they were wonderfully accommodating. I’m so grateful that they took such good care of our sweet girls!”
“Rose is FANTASTIC! A loving, fun and calm spirit! Pippy was so very happy and content staying with her and Zeus! I would rebook in a minute and often! We found a gem amongst rocks! 🤗”

We had a super positive experience and felt very comfortable leaving our dog Minnie with Emily. She sent lots of great pictures, kept us updated, and our dog looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the whole time. She even taught Minnie a new trick! We would definitely book again!

Polina is the nicest and kindest person and my dog, Teddy, simply adores her! She is very responsible and takes the best care of Teddy when I am away. She sends pictures and cute little stories and I know Teddy is being treated like a member of their family. Thank you, Polina!❤️🐶

Stephanie and her family took great care of my anxious dog. They have experience with fearful dogs and my dog felt right at home. She sent updates with pictures and reached out with questions. They have a fenced in backyard and really seemed to enjoy my dog, so I will definitely use there services again and would highly recommend them!!!
