“This was the first time leaving our puppy with a total stranger. based on the numerous positive reviews and repeat clients. we chose Trinh. His home is located in a nice, quiet residential neighborhood. We were greeted warmly by Trinh. He sent pictures and video of Lucca everyday. On our pick-up day, we were greeted by his mom. A lovely lady who treated Lucca as her own. Overall Lucca seemed well cared for by loving people, and I would not hesitate to leave him with Trinh and his family again.”


“Sabrina did a fantastic job of looking after Mili, our 8 year golden retriever while we were away for the weekend. She was always responsive and sent updates/pictures everyday. Mili had a great time and we will definitely use Sabrina’s services the next time we need a sitter.”


“She was fantastic at looking after Duke. I really appreciated the short notice!!! If you want an amazing person, and not worry at all about your special animal. Reserve her today. No hesitations I will rebook her.”


“I was so pleased with the care provided for Harley by Michelle. She kept me updated with texts and photos which gave me peace of mind that Harley was enjoying himself and very happy at Michelle’s home. I look forward to using her services again soon. Sharon S.”


“Kuma had a great time with Tracy and her family! We needed a last minute booking as plans with our sitter fell through. Would highly recommend booking for boarding as they have a yard and another friendly companion Zoey (just check out all the cute photos on Tracy’s profile with other doggos)”


“I'm thankful for Alyn looking after my pup Pepper. Despite Pepper falling ill just before our booked boarding, Alyn graciously agreed to care for her. His vigilance and frequent updates reassured me during my time away. Alyn's thorough care and communication make him an excellent dog sitter, and I highly recommend him. Looking forward to using his services again.”

“Our 8 months old puppy, Oreo had a great stay with Nikhila. She provided a great comfortable stay for him. She was excellent at sending pictures and updates about him. We would definitely board Oreo with her again.”


“Thao was amazing with our puppy Obi. You can tell she really cared about him, from the daily updates and questions about his progress. Obi is not boarded often, so he always has a bit of an acclimation period. Thao and her mom were amazing at making Obi feel at home. He came home very happy. Thank you, Thao!!!”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care our two dogs received! From the moment we met Kristena, it was clear she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. Throughout the time we were away, Kristena kept us updated with messages, photos, and even a few fun videos. It was obvious our dogs were not only well cared for, but also happy, exercised, and genuinely enjoying themselves. Reliable, kind, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful, Kristena went above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found someone we can fully trust with our pups.”


“Son, her husband and children did a wonderful job looking after PENNY. As soon as I met the family, I knew she was in good hands. They gave her an immense amount of love and attention. She went on adventures with them throughout the Bay Area and coastal regions. She had so much fun that it was like sending a 12 year old to summer camp! I would highly recommend Son and her family to take care of your little dog or a big dog when the time comes. They are also my friends now.”


“Jessica was amazing with communication and care about my dog. Really appreciate everything she did and would definitely prefer to rebook her for our next dog sitting service. I had booked her for 3 weeks of dog sitting and she did amazing job”


“David took great care of my pup! He sent lots of updates, and his dog and mine wound up really hitting it off, too — an added bonus. I’d definitely use David again and will recommend him to others.”


About: I’ve grown up with family dogs since I was a kid, and took care of my own for the last 12 years before she passed. Looking forward to meeting and caring for new fur friends! I currently work full-time, with most days from home. For the days I am in-office, I am only gone from home for 3-4 hours, so I spend most of my time at home where I can meet the care needs of your precious pet. I live in an apartment with my husband with all supplies needed to help care for your pup. Our apartment complex comes with multiple dog parks on property, and there is a school with a park across the street that we can enjoy walks at. Please note that our apartment is on the third floor, and although our stair cases are short, if your pet does not do well with stairs we may not be the best match at this time. Thank you!

“Quick to respond, very communicative. Mango had a great time with her. She lives close to a vet hospital, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Overall excellent experience!”


“Brian and his family took great care of my pup. They were very responsive, followed his schedule, and made sure to ask questions to ensure his comfort. I can tell they truly cared for my pup and had the best intentions making sure my boy felt right at home. Highly recommend booking and I will definitely be back!”


“Lyan is so sweet and wonderful. It was great finding someone close to us, so that was a major plus. We had a chance to meet them beforehand, especially their dog, Dexter. So adorable! Our Mylie had a wonderful stay with Lyan. We got photo and text updates throughout and her communication is top notch. We will most certainly use Lyan's services again. Highly recommend!”


“Becky is the absolute best dog sitter I have worked with! Becky took care of my large great pyr mix who gets nervous and reactive towards other dogs. She did a fantastic job with communication and pictures everyday. I had a peaceful vacation knowing my pup was in safe hands. She just speaks dog and understands their needs. If are looking to board you dog, look no further 🙌🏼”
