“We really appreciated Lisa (and her family’s) care for our dog Kunga! She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and sent updates. Kunga loved her time there. Would totally leave Kunga with Lisa again.”
“Loving, caring and the perfect sitter - wonderful to our dog, sends a bunch of updates, very communicative, takes such good care of our little boy... Albina is the BEST!”
“Sojeong and her parents took great care of the dogs, provided regular updates, and were friendly and communicative before and during the whole process. We can't recommend them higher and hope to use them during all our future trips!”
“This was my first time leaving my Noodle, my 2 year old Goldendoodle, with a dog sitter. I was a bit nervous but Sevan made the experience wonderful! He has a large space with a backhouse where the dogs stay inside when it's hot outside. Noodle stayed for 2 nights. Sevan sent updates, photos, and videos multiple times per day. Sevan made us feel at ease. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about dog safety and wellbeing. Highly recommend!”
“Irina is a very sweet and responsible lady.. We respect the way she treated us and loved the way she treated Brownie.. and her family is great. They are an asset to any pets comfort. We could tell from the pictures he was HAPPY AND RELAXED. See you next month. Thanks”
“Angelica was great. I’m so glad I found a sitter I can trust. She is kind and sweet. She loves dogs .and I can tell my dog loves her too . I’m definitely bringing my dog back to Angelica the next time I go outta town.”
“We live several hours away and needed someone to watch our pup while we went on a cruise. I searched for someone and found Yulia! She had experience with dogs, she has no dogs, she takes one client at a time plus dogs are allowed on the bed. PERFECT 👌 Yulia knew how hard it was for me to leave Taco. His first time. She sent photos right away! She let me know how he was feeling and how he did throughout the day and night. We had awesome communication during his stay plus photos and videos. They truly helped me. He went on long walks and received a lot of loving from both Julia and her husband. Mr. Taco also learned a new trick!! She taught him to lay down! I'm truly thankful and grateful to have found Yulia. I hope she's available when I need her next! I may change my schedule to fit hers! Warm hugs. ❤️”
“Lisa was an amazing dog sitter! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog in her care and enjoyed the frequent updates and pics she sent. Would definitely rebook!”
“Greg is great! He asked lots of questions to make sure she’d be comfortable and happy. Very kind and thorough, and gave me updates throughout the day with pictures and videos of how truffles was doing. She’s always a little sad after leaving someone she likes, and she’s already sitting here missing him. Thank you again Greg!! Glad you both had fun together! :)”
“Adrienne and her husband took great care of our dog Laika for 8 days. She was very communicative, sent us pictures regularly throughout the stay, and it was clear from the first meet and greet that she was very attentive and caring with the dogs she took care of (Laika immediately took to her and Phoebe, her dog). Phoebe is such a sweet dog as well and seemed to have gotten along really well with Laika. Would definitely leave Laika in their care again in the future!”
“Katrina has taken care of my elderly dog for two weeks while I was on an Asia trip. She was the best person for my dog to look after - kept up with the consistent communication, checked up on his health, and gave him the best walks. When I picked up my dog, he looked SO happy and even looked better!! My dog currently misses her after we left so I need to book her again soon!! 😂”
“Excellent boarding of my little dog Dino. He had fun playing with her dog and kids. HE was well taken care of by Janice and her family. I will definitely board with her in the future.”
“Magdalena was a wonderful dog sitter for our pup Franklin. She was very attentive, sent lots of photos and updates and you can tell she has a big heart for animals. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Girlie had a great four day stay with Josie, she sent me pictures and updates and a report each morning of how she did during the night! It was my pup’s first time being away from me overnight and Josie gave me the wonderful gift of peace of mind. Thank you!!”

“This is my second time booking with Daria, and once again, they exceeded my expectations! My dog absolutely loves them, and I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such caring and capable hands. She provides regular updates, photos, and truly treats my dog like their own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pet makes all the difference. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and loving dog sitter. Thank you again for your outstanding care!””
“This was our first time leaving Lucky with anyone. We met sherice and her kids before we left for our trip. They made us feel very comfortable . Lucky was very happy and so were we . I would definitely use them again. Since I can't give them more than five stars I'll add my own. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”
“Dan is a Dog Whisperer. He always makes my little hero Pirate one of the pack in his pooch-friendly home. We’ve left Pirate with him before, but this was for 17 days. Pirate had such a good time with Dan and his dogs that when we reunited today, Pirate gave me kind of a side eye that said, “Hey, I like hanging out here. No rush to come home.” Seriously though, Dan has a very warm, calming presence and we’ll call on him again! Thank you!”

Found my perfect dog sitter! Jonalyn did an exceptional job of taking care of our babies for 2 weeks. She kept us in the loop with daily pics and videos. I could tell how much she showered our dogs with love and attention with their daily walks,lots of hugs and playtime. Booking with her was a breeze and I know that in the future, I won't hesitate to book Jonalyn again.
This was our dog Daisy’s second stay with Yulia. We couldn’t be happier with the level of care, attention and affection Yulia gives to her. She is someone we can really trust with our baby girl. We also love the daily pics/videos! We will be booking with Yulia again!
We feel so grateful to have found Jenn to care for our beloved Miko while we were away for two weeks. From the start, Jenn and her family welcomed him with so much love and truly treated him like one of their own. We received daily updates and got to see all the fun moments Miko was having, which really showed how much genuine care and attention he was getting. We honestly cannot express enough how at ease we felt knowing Miko was in such great hands. Jenn went above and beyond, and we would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pet like family.
Sevan’s passion for dogs was immediately evident from our very first conversation. It was clear he’s not just a dog sitter—he’s a true expert who genuinely understands and loves working with dogs. That impression was powerfully reinforced when my husband and I dropped Mickey off. The moment we walked in, we were amazed by how thoughtfully Sevan had designed his space specifically for dogs’ comfort, safety, and happiness. Every detail showed care and professionalism. We felt completely confident leaving Mickey in his hands. Highly recommended!
Lisa, Trevor and Nathan went above & beyond to care for my dog while we were out of the country. From the regular updates and photos, I could tell she was being not only cared for, but pampered. Lisa even rearranged some furniture to allow Daisy a better view out of the window! Lisa & family are amazing animal care-givers and we will definitely use them again.
Bianca was absolutely wonderful. We left Maple with her for 10 days while we were traveling, and she took such great care of her. She kept us updated every single day with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much comfort while we were away. We couldn’t be happier with the experience. It truly gives us peace of mind knowing we have someone we completely trust to care for our dog whenever we travel. Highly recommend Bianca to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
This was our second time boarding with Jane and our pup Yuna immediately remembered where we were at drop off and starting pulling to get to the door! She was so excited to reunite with Mochi :) We were able to fully relax on our trip knowing Yuna was in good hands. So glad to have found Jane!
