“It was our goofy guy’s second time staying with Jocy, and he was so excited to see her again! We could tell he had such a great time with her this stay too, and she is super attentive to his needs and his personality. We loved all the photo updates. We will definitely be using her services for any future traveling we do. :)”

“We’ve used Jason several times and he always does a great job with our boy Eli. He sends updates frequently and is always flexible if we need to shift times based on our travels. We know Eli is well taken care of while we are away. Definitely recommend Jason!”


“Royce had a great time with Jimmy! He was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures and responded quickly. Definitely recommend him and will use him again in the future.”


“Whitney is the best! Bentley is always well taken care of and Whitney is super great to schedule with. We had a rough trip home with flight delays. Moved pick up times like 3 time and ended up having to add two nights! Whitney was super flexible, adding days and rolling with the changes.”

“We are so thankful to Xochitl for taking such amazing care of Fluffy during his 5-day boarding stay while we were out of town. Knowing Fluffy was in such loving, patient, and trustworthy hands gave us so much peace of mind. Xochitl treated him like family, making sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for every day. Fluffy also had so much fun playing with the other puppies, which made his stay even more enjoyable. When we came back, he was relaxed, healthy, and clearly happy, showing how much he enjoyed his time with her. We truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him and highly recommend Xochitl to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!”

“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”

“We’ve used Genevieve several times and continue to be so happy and comfortable with her! My dog Franklin gets excited to see her and looks so happy in all the pics she sends me during his stay 😊”


“Shelby and her family were super nice and I could tell they gave my dogs lots of attention. She communicated great and sent daily pictures. My dogs loved all the outside time they got. Would book again!!”

“Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.”

“Anna was amazing watching my dog Willow for the first time. I had a lot of anxiety leaving her after just moving to San Diego, but Anna immediately put me at ease. She was so kind and treated Willow like her own, letting her relax and feel comfortable in her home. She kept me updated and sent great pictures that made me really happy. I truly appreciated her communication and care—would absolutely recommend her! She’s wonderful and you can see how much she loves and cares about dogs! Willow had a great time!”

“We've now left our dog Phoebe with Michelle a few times and each time, she is so reliable and wonderful with her. Prompt, gives updates, super affectionate - everything we hope for in a sitter. Thanks, Michelle!!”

“My dog is usually slow to trust new people, so the fact that she feels comfortable and happy with Amelia (& her family) speaks volumes. Amelia’s kindness, patience, and genuine care truly shine through. I’m so grateful to have found someone my dog trusts & that I can trust to keep my dog happy & healthy while I am away.”

“Alex took amazing care of my beagle, Rusty, on super short notice—and I couldn’t be more grateful. He was incredibly kind, communicative, and sent multiple photos of Rusty enjoying his walks, which totally put my mind at ease. Rusty told me he had a blast and felt totally safe and loved 🐾😊. I’d absolutely trust Alex again in a heartbeat!”

“Pam was great with our dog Bentley! She was easy to communicate with from day one, clearly a dog lover, and kept us updated on how he was doing. It was a bonus for me that Bentley got to spend time with her dog Xotchil and they went to a dog park daily. I would highly recommend Pam to others and I’m sure we’ll use her in the future again.”


“Shakyra took great care of our pup and sent picture updates which were greatly appreciated! Will definitely leave our pup with Shakyra again and highly recommend”

“This was Rosie's first ever boarding outside our house and Hana made Rosie's visit stress-free. Hana was very responsive to my booking inquiry and welcoming when we visited to meet her in advance of booking. Hana sent photos and videos during the stay and I felt very comforted knowing Rosie was in good hands. I would definitely book with Hana again. Thanks, Hana!”

“Kiara was amazing she communicated the whole time and sent pictures during his stay. He got a ton of play time with her and her family. She also kept up with his home schedule which we appreciate so much. Apollo will definitely be back.”

“David was wry welcoming and easy to communicate with, has a great house and enclosed backyard, and provided daily updates, I would gladly have my dog stay with him again”

“I highly recommend Layla. She sent a lot of updates and pictures which was helpful keeping me comfortable about leaving my dogs behind during my trip. She offered to help out when my flight got canceled. I definitely will use her again!”

So grateful to Ilsa for taking such great care of Leo while we were gone for 3 weeks. We arranged a half day trial before the trip to make sure it was a good fit and he would get along with her other pets and Ilsa was super communicative. While on our trip, she truly treated him like her own and sent us photos and updates throughout the time he was with her. She is someone who is so loving and knowledgeable with pets and I highly recommend her!

Jason did such an amazing job taking care of Hoshi! This was her first time staying with someone for an entire weekend, and I honestly had no worries at all. He made her feel comfortable, kept me updated, and treated her like she was part of the family. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. I would absolutely trust Jason with Hoshi again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

This was our second time trusting Holly with our furbaby! She is always on time, communicates right away, and sends several daily updates so we never have to worry. It puts our minds completely at ease when we are missing our pup. Thank you, Holly, for being an awesome dog sitter!

Mo and Eugene were wonderful as sitters for my elder dog. Giddy requires full-time attention and especially so since he was recovering from a UTI. Mo and Eugene went above and beyond, providing exceptional care and love, including administering his daily antibiotics. They were highly attentive to his needs. They are excellent communicators, and I truly appreciated receiving regular updates, photos, and videos throughout the stay. I highly recommend Mo and Eugene; anyone would be lucky to book with them.

This was my first time boarding my dog Teddy not with friends or family. It was great while traveling to be reassured that Teddy would have dog and people friends around. I could tell he was taken care of and well loved since he slept the rest of the day once we got home. I’m sure he didn’t want to miss out on any of the fun!

Kelly rocks! My dog gets anxious away from home and Monique created a calm and welcoming environment. He's also a picky eater but takes oral medication everyday. She was able to ensure he was taking his meds and eating. It was such a relief having someone so wonderful and attentive watching him while I was away. I also appreciated all the communication-lots of photos and texts describing daily walks and activities and anything that was out of the normal. Can't recommend Kelly enough!

Emmanuela was such a good sitter to our 2 year old Great Pyrenees mix. We are new to San Diego and were anxious about leaving our baby with strangers. But when we met Emmanuela she reassured us we would receive updates and that he would go on plenty of walks with her and her boyfriend. This made us feel even better knowing he’d have a couple watching him like he usually does at home. Since moving from Texas, our boy has missed his balcony time and he got plenty at Emmanuela’s. We’ll be recommending her services

We don’t leave our darling Kulta too often, but we decided on a camping trip that didn’t allow pets! I got so lucky to have found Bryan and Christina on here. They really took such great care of our big girl! She seemed very happy! Will definitely love to have them watch our lab again and again.

My chihuahua came to stay with Serenity over the 4th of July weekend. Communication was excellent. We did a short meet and greet. I received several updates a day with pictures and details about walks, meals and cuddles. I can tell my little fur baby had the best sleepover. Thank you Serenity 🩷
