“Gargi and Sourav are fantastic with my dog. Waldo seemed to get comfortable instantly and their dog Archie was a great company for my dog as well!”
“Susan was absolutely wonderful! She was welcoming, attentive, and incredibly accommodating to our fur baby Kuku’s needs. He’s 12 years old and on medication, and she handled everything with so much care. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us such peace of mind. We completely trust her with Kuku and are so grateful to have found her. Highly recommend her for your four-legged loved ones! She’s amazing!”
“Paloma was very responsive and always updated on how Ace was doing with the other little fur babies (he can be a handful at times). She even used her time with him to train him on basic commands. Overall very happy with how she babied my baby boy 🩷 will be going back!!”
“Kathy responded to our initial request incredibly quickly and couldn’t have been kinder. From the start, she was attentive and understanding—especially important for us since our dog can be a bit anxious in new environments. During our first drop-off, she took the time to help him feel comfortable and safe, and we were relieved to hear that he had settled down shortly after we left. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’re so happy to have found someone we trust, and we’ve already booked with her again for an upcoming multi-night stay. Highly recommended!”

Paloma was very responsive and always updated on how Ace was doing with the other little fur babies (he can be a handful at times). She even used her time with him to train him on basic commands. Overall very happy with how she babied my baby boy 🩷 will be going back!!
Benji had such a great day with Gargi and Sourav and Archie! He got to run around in the yard, play, and was clearly super well cared for the whole time. I loved getting all the photo updates throughout the day. It was so nice seeing how happy and comfortable he was. You can really tell he was in good hands, and Archie was such a fun buddy for him to hang out with. Benji came home happy :) Would definitely book again!
Jinghong is amazing! She always keeps my girlfriend and me updated on our little man’s progress throughout the day. She sends photos and videos so we can see how much fun our golden retriever is having. Her dog, Yogurt, is the sweetest dog in the world. He welcomed our little guy with open paws when they first met, and they’ve been playing and hanging out together ever since. It’s been so comforting to know he has such a great buddy. Jinghong takes care of our little man like he’s one of her own. She always asks how we’d like him cared for and checks in to make sure she’s meeting our expectations—never overstepping, just showing genuine care and professionalism. We truly couldn’t be happier to have found Jinghong and Yogurt for our little guy! 😊
My dog sitter cancelled last minute before a friends wedding, Kat was able to take my dog in on an hours notice. Kat provided pictures/updates through out the stay, and was exceptionally accommodating to the last minute booking. I highly recommend Kat for your pet sitting needs.
Susan was absolutely wonderful! She was welcoming, attentive, and incredibly accommodating to our fur baby Kuku’s needs. He’s 12 years old and on medication, and she handled everything with so much care. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us such peace of mind. We completely trust her with Kuku and are so grateful to have found her. Highly recommend her for your four-legged loved ones! She’s amazing!
