“Once again, Cody enjoyed his stay. Thanks for taking such good care of him! Wenxin and Cham sent regular updates and made sure our dog felt at home. Appreciate that they take him to the dog park and give him lots of treats and cuddles.”
“Ashish and family boarded Penny for a week while I was traveling. They sent me lots of pics of how much fun Penny was having with the family and I wondered if she would even want to come home 😆”
“Julie and Adam are truly dog lovers who helped our Mollie tremendously with her anxiety issues. Mollie is a rescue pup who takes time to warm up to new people and surroundings, but Julie and Adam did a great job making her comfortable and engaging Mollie in activities. Mollie is a half Husky so she does need lots of exercise and activity. We will be having Molly stay again with Julie and Adam as when we picked her up we could tell that Molly felt very much at home!”
“We are SO grateful we found Luna! Our usual dog care fell through right before a long out-of-state trip, and we were genuinely considering postponing because our senior dog, Indi, has recently been diagnosed with IBD and needs a specialized diet, daily meds, and a calm, attentive environment. She can get stressed easily in new places, which has previously led to tummy issues and even skin flare-ups — so we were very nervous about leaving her with someone new. From the very first message, Luna was incredibly warm, proactive, and thoughtful. She even offered to set up a meet-and-greet right away before we could ask, which immediately put us at ease. Once we dropped Indi off, it was clear Luna treats animals like family. Her own dog, Jim, also has IBD, so she had first-hand experience and comfort caring for a pup with similar needs. Throughout the two weeks, Luna provided detailed updates every single day — including meals, meds, walks, and yes, digestion reports (very appreciated 😂). She took so many adorable photos and videos that we could see how happy and relaxed Indi was. Our dog walker also commented on how noticeably happier and healthier Indi seemed while staying at Luna’s — her stools even improved (a true win for IBD dog parents!). Communication was flawless, kind, and reassuring the whole time. We felt completely at ease, which is priceless. We would absolutely book with Luna again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a sitter who is caring, attentive, and truly exceptional. Indi came home happy, calm, and healthy — we couldn’t ask for more. 💛🐾”
“Ross and family took amazing care of Clover and Willow! They seems extremely relaxed and to get along well with Millie. I didn’t worry about them during our trip. Super thankful and would love to have the girls stay again!”
“Frygg loved staying w Nathaniel. He sent videos and updates. My dog came home happy and tired. I think she misses being there and playing with Nathaniel’s dogs!! Highly recommend. Would book again.”
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life. I grew up with 4 bigs dogs. Recently I’ve been doing walks on apps, I’ve done over 70+ services ranging from taking care of old pets to very young ones. People always set me as their preferred walker since they love that I listen to their rules and go on long walks with their dogs. For a 60 minute walk I average about 2-3 miles, depending on the dog. I’m currently a student at San Jose State University and I look forward to doing some walks or other services on the weekends when I’m back home, also I can do walks or sittings on the weekdays when I off school. I have a fenced yard, the dogs and cats are allowed in the house and my room. I will make sure to always keep a lookout and have them be where I am at.
“Yesica was phenomenal with our 3 year old Bernedoodle. She was attentive, responsible, caring and overall gave so much love to our little pup. When I dropped off our dog, she instantly felt connected to Yesica and comfortable in her home. Yesica also did a great job keeping us posted on how our pup was doing. With texts and photos, we never had a doubt that our dog was well cared for. I will definitely be booking with Yesica again!”
“Louis watched our dog for multiple days over Thanksgiving week, and was absolutely amazing. He gave super prompt communication and is very knowledgeable. We felt at ease during our trip knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend Louis if you are in need of a great dog sitter!”
“Te’Arie was great with our maltipoo pup, who can be a bit on the nervous side when first meeting people and other dogs/cats. She knew just what to do to make her feel comfortable during her weekend stay and I loved how she kept me posted on their outings (walks and nearby beach) and shared pics. You can tell Te’Arie has experience working with different personalities and is also just a really warm, caring person. Would definitely book with Te’Arie again and highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely love animals. I understand the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I love taking dogs on hikes and to the beach as well. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure pets get the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, walks, and special care needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Luciana and Rob were incredible and did an amazing job taking care of our little cavapoo, Poppy. There were so kind and welcoming. We had a great meet and greet with them early in the booking process and we knew they were a perfect fit for her. Poppy gets nervous around strangers and they were very patient and let Poppy go at her own pace. They sent lots of photos and updates while we were away and we couldn’t have been more at ease leaving our fur baby.”
“Our Shepherd/Husky loved staying with Allora and her family. He loved being able to play with their dog Boba, chasing each other around in their large outdoor backyard. Allora was very attentive and sent pictures every day, keeping us up to date with all the activities they were up to, which included walks every day, and being involved in family activities. I will definitely choose to leave him with Allora in the future too.”
“Radha is Kai’s favorite 😍 Kai gets so excited to go and soaks up lots of love and attention while there 😊 I get videos and updates and feel worry free bc I know Kai is getting excellent care.”
“Ali is the best! She’s been caring for my dog for 4 years now. She’s so responsible, knowledgeable, and caring. I know my dog is always in safe and capable hands whenever I leave him with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jeanette and her husband were very good hands too leave my little baby with. They sent video and pics and another dog just like mine came for a visit she had a twin, when I picked her up I asked if they played a lot and she said no, she kept them separateed, but she played with their playful big dog. At first I thought oh she would have had more fun. But what that told me is that she is very professional and smart because she knows the temperament of her dogs but does not know really well about the temperament of our two dogs. You can leave your dog with Jeanette and her husband ( sorry I forgot your name ) and know they’re in great hands and taken care of by your instructions. Also I called late Thursday evening and asked if I could drop her off tomorrow morning ( Friday ) at 9AM and pick her up the following night ( Saturday ) at 11PM and she said sure no problem. Plus Plus Plus she was the most affordable sitter on here. Thank you Jeanette. You will make up your modest fee with a great tip thank you so much..”

Banksy had an amazing time at Luna's and loved playing with Jim. I felt extremely comfortable leaving Banksy with Luna, based on the questions she asked about Banksy, her attention to detail about his needs and safety, and just her kind warm personality! I loved the pictures each day. I wholeheartedly recommend Luna and will definitely be having her watch Banksy again!
We recently boarded our Samoyed, Baloo, with Astur for four nights, and we couldn't be happier. Baloo had an absolute blast! Astur is incredibly caring and gave us tremendous peace of mind by sending daily updates with photos and videos. I highly recommend him and will definitely be boarding Baloo here again!
Jacqueline gave Paxton the most love and attention! I appreciated the daily updates and she was very responsive. You can tell she truly loves pets and will give them the absolute best care! We’re so happy to have found her, and will continue to book with her in the future.
We had such a wonderful experience leaving our dog with Kate! Kate sent daily pictures and updates, so we never had to worry about how our pup was doing; we could actually relax and enjoy our vacation, knowing she was in such caring hands. Kate's own dog, Rootie, is the sweetest thing, adorable, and so well-behaved, which says a lot about the loving environment she provides. It's clear that dogs are happy and comfortable in her care. We're so glad we got to meet Kate and sweet Rootie, and we'll definitely be knocking on their door again the next time we travel. Highly recommend!
Eric was absolutely wonderful with our dog Soba! He sent us regular updates with photos and videos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. His own dog was a great companion for Soba and it was clear he was having a blast the whole time. We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and caring sitter. Highly recommend Eric and will definitely be booking with him again!
Julie and Adam took great care of my dog. I have a small, high energy, reactive dog, who is slow to warm up to new people. They cared for him very well and generally seemed unfazed by his shenanigans, which was a relief. They provided plenty of photos and updates, and we will certainly use Julie & Adam again in the future! Thank you!!!
Pepper now knows Lanette and Dave as Grammy and Grampy. Just like grandparents do, they spoiled pepper! I’m not sure he wanted to come home🤣 Lanette and Dave are wonderful people and I am so happy to have found them to care for our pup. They were personable, responded fast and sent many pics. I highly recommended them!
Paul H and family are wonderful. This is the first time ever that we boarded our Tito. We were picky as with every pet owner, I'm sure but we felt blessed when we found Paul H and family to look after our Tito. We were sent lots of pictures of Tito daily... letting us know of Tito's activities, feeding, etc. Our Tito was loved and tended to so wonderfully, like he was their own. Tito felt at home. We now feel comfortable if/when going away on vacation, where we cannot bring Tito, that there are Paul H and family to look after our Tito. Thank you so very much, Paul H and family!
