“Thank You Viji. Viji took great care of our dear doggo. She sent regular pictures and videos. She went above and beyond on making sure he ate his food everyday. When needed we will definitely come back to her to take care of our doggo.”


2. Brad C.


“My dog had a wonderful stay, she was not stressed at all when I picked her up. Amy and Brad are the best and Yuki will be staying there when I leave town the next time. I highly recommend Any and Brad, wonderful people.”




3. Jamie C.


“This was the first time our baby had been away from us overnight and we were a bit nervous. Jamie was awesome and Kleo had so much fun at her first sleepover. Thank you Jamie for taking such excellent care of her. We now know we can leave her with you anytime and not have to worry. Kleo will be back💕”

“Offered time for my pups to explore and reviewed special instructions for my senior dogs with me before I left. Loved the daily updates and photos!! Appreciate you taking care of my girls, Katya!”


5. Lisa & David G.


“Maui stayed with Lisa and David for 7 days. I could tell right away from their pictures that he felt relaxed and at home with them. He can be anxious while away from home so it is great to find a sitter that he can feel comfortable with ☺️”


6. Millie M.


“Millie and her family took amazing care of our sweet boy. Our family was gone for a week and my daughter was very emotional leaving him for that long. Millie reassured her that he would be loved and spoiled. She sent us daily photos and updates and he looked like he also had THE BEST doggy vacation! We will 100% use Millie again in the future. 🥰🐶”


7. Andrea S.

“Andrea took such good care of our pup Maddie! She sent plenty of pictures and videos during their first time boarding. Her dog Marley is so sweet and gentle! He loves other dogs and Maddie loved being with him. Andrea took Maddie and Marley out for walks and Maddie was so happy and exhausted after their play time. We’ll be booking her and Marley again! Highly recommend!”


8. Sylvia H.

“Stanley loved Sylvia! He was shy when we met her for the introductory meeting beforehand, but at least he wasn’t barking, which is usually the case. He was sad when I left him the day I dropped him off, but not upset. Sylvia sent me so many photos and updates! He slowly made his way to getting closer to her, and now he has a second mom. I wasn’t sure he’d come home with me :P Thank you for taking such good care of my baby, Sylvia!”


9. Andrea R.

“Andrea is the absolute best! She had the highest level of love and care for my pooch, and was extremely communicative the entire time I was away. I couldn’t recommend a pet sitter anymore than her, you and you’re pets will be in great hands.”


10. Yanqiu & Eric C.

“Such a smooth and reassuring weekend booking with Yanqiu & Eric! I had a last minute trip pop up and they were incredibly accommodating arranging a meet and greet immediately and then taking Caddie in for the weekend. They provided me with plenty of updates throughout the trip and Caddie came backed pooped from having such a fun weekend.”


11. Kayla M.

“Kayla was awesome!! She did an amazing job keeping me updated while I was away for the weekend. She provided detailed report cards with lots and lots of photos which I loved! Sully looked like he had a blast at Kayla’s house, and he come home happy and tired. Sully can’t wait to go back! 😊”


12. Paige H.

“Absolutely wonderful!!! We had to pack for moving and it was easier to have Duck out of the house for one night. We received pictures and updates. We were a bit late picking him up but Paige was so understanding and great! Ducky had a great time, we would definitely use her again!”


13. Laura C.

“I recently had Laura watch my 100 lb Goldendoodle, Bogey, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I picked him up, it was clear he had an amazing time—he didn’t even want to leave! Laura was fantastic about keeping me updated with daily pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. You could see in every photo that Bogey was happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Laura clearly knows how to make dogs feel loved and cared for. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”

Ashley seemed genuinely kind and caring of watching our sweet boy while we were out of town and out of options w/ in our close family, this is our first time on the app, and It truly was a blessing, Thanks Ashley! we know who we can contact when our sweet boy needs a friend to watch take care of him!☺️”

19. Hannah R.

“Hannah was so wonderful to work with. She kept our dog in her home and he came back good and wore out. It seemed he enjoyed his vacation as much as we enjoyed ours. She was very easy to get in touch with and sent multiple pictures throughout his time with her. We’ve already booked her again!”


20. Travis M.

“Travis was great to work with and was amazing with our little guy Bruno. He was willing to meet up first to get acquainted with Bruno and to make sure he would be comfortable in his home before we finalized the booking. His home is very clean, organized and dog friendly. I received frequent updates and many photos of him and Bruno playing, walking or just hanging out. I felt comfortable knowing Bruno was well taken care of! Overall a great experience and will definitely book with Travis again if I need sitter services.”
