“Jayla is very knowledgeable about dogs and is super wonderful to interact with! We will definitely be bringing our boy back to stay with her again :)”


“Cheryle took great care of my little dog Charlie for one week in her home. He seems to have had a great time with her and her small dog. I would definitely ask her to care for Charlie again and would recommend her highly!”


“Maegan was great! She responded quickly each time I contacted her. Maegan's house and yard are well set up for a visiting dog. She is relaxed and calm and well-prepared. Drop-off and pick-up were very easy. My little dog seemed comfortable in Maegan's house. I was given an update and a picture of my dog while I was away. I would happily choose Maegan as a sitter again.”



“Nia was so amazing! Communicated well and was very accommodating. She sent lots of videos and photos. And I can tell my pup enjoyed herself. I will definitely book her again!”


“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”


“Emily took loving care of my dog and was able to be flexible when making the booking to accommodate our schedule. She always kept me updated and informed and made sure my dog got exercise and attention.”


“Zeiydah is a lifesaver! She helped our family with very short notice. Zeiydah sent pictures multiple times per day to ease the anxiety of leaving our pet behind. We will use her again.”


“I once again couldn't be happier that I found Mark & Sylva to watch my boys Buddy & Connor. This is the 2nd time they've watched my boys and once again I'm deeply appreciative of the attention and care they give my babies. The pictures and daily updates eased my worries about being gone. I would recommend them to watch your fur babies over and over again.”


“Amanda was awesome! Clear communicator and super friendly. Amanda is also in a great location right off 787, and has a big house for dogs to explore and have fun. She took my guy hiking in brutally cold weather. Will book again.”


“Cache is great! We left our dog with her a few times now and I always know she’s in great hands. Cache is responsive and communicative and goes above and beyond to make our dog happy. Thank you!”


“Annette is a very kind, attentive, and communicative caretaker. This was our first time leaving our anxious shih tzu and I had full trust in Annette’s skills and expertise. She bonded well with her. She kept me updated on how Teddi was doing and took amazing care for her when she experienced GI upset. I would highly recommend Annette and will gladly book with her again in the future.”


“Kelsey was great, very responsive and flexible. Our dog Marshall was very happy to spend time with Kelsey! He will definitely be coming back!”


“Very friendly made us feel like family send pictures and videos my pup was happy”


“Vera is an incredible host! Our 1yo pup was in excellent hands while we were away for a week. She accommodated an extra day and gave plenty of daily exercise and attention. We’ll be back for another stay for sure!”



“My 8 year old, Curly Coated Retriever, had never been boarded before. Kyle made me so comfortable at our initial meet & greet that it reduced my trepidation of being away from my girl for the first time & I knew she was in good hands. Kyle’s daily pictures & comments made being away from my girl so much easier. It was very clear seeing how much Kyle loved dogs and she was such a good caregiver to my girl. I would strongly recommend Kyle’s service to anybody who wants to ensure their dog is in the hands of someone who truly cares about her furry friends.”



“Debbie was great! We left our 1st time boarder w/ her very last minute when our weekend getaway informed us they no longer allow dogs. I was SUPER anxious to leave her, especially w/ a "stranger", but Debbie sent me lots of updates & pictures to ease my mind. By the time we picked her up, her tail was wagging, her ears were up & she was visibly relaxed & happy. Debbie also has a great, fenced-in side yard for the pups to run around in. We will be trusting here again to watch Molly.”


“Lauren was pretty amazing. Sent pics of my pup playing and took really good care of him. Will certainly be booking again.”


“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”



“Cong is a gem!! She accommodated our dog, Piper, as a last-minute guest, and sent us photos and videos throughout the stay. Our dog goes on mini hunger strikes when she is away from us, but Cong went above and beyond to makes sure that this didn't happen. We are grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for Piper!”


“Stephanie is wonderful to work with and it’s safe to say my golden, Lucy, loves her now. She helped me with last minute boarding request. We did an initial daycare so they could get to know each other before boarding and Lucy was super excited once she knew she was going back after her daycare day. Stephanie lets you everything going on and shares lots of videos & pictures during the stay. Would 100% recommend Stephanie to anyone interested in finding a safe and loving home to send your fur baby for a day or more.”
