We boarded our dog for the second time for over a week with Vignesh and are extremely satisfied with his care and updates. He’s also very accommodating with our dates and pick up and drop off times.

Briana took extra special care of our puppy while we were away. We were so impressed by her communication, daily photos and updates, and how easy it was to drop our pup off and pick him up. He clearly had a wonderful time with all of the other dogs that were there and was exhausted when he got home! Highly recommend!

We had our first playdate with Tracee this week and it went very well! Tracee has a warm and welcoming home and made our dog very comfortable and happy during his stay. I also got multiple pictures of him playing and relaxing, which I appreciated. We have an overnight stay booked with Tracee and are looking forward to it! Thank you!!

Radhika and her family did a fantastic job watching over and taking care of our pup while we were out of state for a few days over the 4th Holiday. I absolutely recommend Radhika as a trusted sitter for anyone’s dog. It was a relief to know our dog was in great hands while we were away.

We are so grateful that our dog got to stay with Shayna, Max, and their two sweet pups! I’m pretty sure our dog is going to have some serious friend withdrawals, especially from their younger dog…the two of them seemed inseparable and had the best time chasing each other around their big, fenced-in yard. We absolutely loved receiving so many photos and videos of them playing, running, and going on walks. It gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile every time they came in. We’re incredibly thankful for the love and attention they gave our dog and hope she gets to stay with them again!

My dog Simba spent his Thanksgiving with Gabriel. He is a male Golden Retriever, two and half years old. He needs a lot of exercise. He never lived anywhere before. I was very worried before leaving Simba with Gabriel. But he had a wonderful experience. He played a lot with other dogs, came home calm and relaxed. Gabriel has a good understanding of dogs and very confident. I am definitely coming back again.

Our dog loved his stay with Melissa! He was the happiest boy when we picked him up. Melissa is great with communication, asks good questions and sends lots of pictures. We love that she has a fenced in yard and treats the dogs like they’re part of the family. Her pup Casper is also a sweetie. 10/10!

About: I grew up in a home where we always had many animals. Because of that, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I’ve spent many years helping take care of pets at home and for family and friends. I currently have a cat named Floyd, who I recently adopted. He is very affectionate, loving, gentle, and gets along very well with other animals. I currently work from home full-time during the weekdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability Monday through Friday. Being home throughout the day allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, companionship, and supervision. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my daily routine and making sure animals feel comfortable, active, and well cared for while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Although my home does not have a fenced yard, I always take pets outside on a leash and stay with them while they enjoy time outdoors. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day.

Lauren was a lifesaver for taking our last-minute booking. She took great care of Champ and sent regular photo updates. A huge thanks to Gavin for helping with the heavy crate, too, he moved it to and from the car on his own without us even asking. Champ came home happy, well-fed, and on his regular routine. Highly recommend them if you need a reliable team! We will definitely be booking with her again.

Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.

CC took care of old gal Penny in her home for 6 days. We got updates in the morning and evenings with the cutest pics of our girl. She even picked her up and dropped her off! CC was amazing and very easy to coordinate with. Is kind and patient. Penny absolutely loved her! Looking forward to having her watch Penny again in a few weeks.

Radhika was available on relatively short notice after we realized that our daughter wasn’t able to stay with our dog over a weekend. Radhika went out of her way to make arrangements for the stay. She provided timely photos and updates. Our golden loves staying at her house and we can see that he is well cared for. He came home happy and healthy! Radhika will be our go-to sitter when we need one!
