Outstanding! Alan and Luis provided extraordinary care for our Black Lab mix Annie while we were on vacation for a week. They are truly the best! Compassionate, friendly, caring, trustworthy are just a few words to describe Alan and Luis. The house is beautiful with a gated fence and a "kiddy pool". Annie truly enjoyed her stay and playing with the other guests as evidenced by her disposition when I picked her up and the the daily photos. I will always check first with Alan and Luis in the future when I need a sitter for Annie.

I'm so happy I found Angela (khanh) and Tommy before traveling halfway around the globe. After our meet and greet I knew I could relax on vacation knowing my pup was in good hands. Angela has that motherly instinct for all dogs big and small, and Tommy is an experienced dog groomer. I got picture and video updates everyday, I felt like my dog was at summer camp and she would never want to come home! I know she got lots of love and exercise and she will be coming back again.

Katie took excellent care of Sadie while we were away on vacation - after meeting her during the meet and greet I felt super comfortable leaving Sadie at her house. Will absolutely use her again for any future vacations, she is quick to respond and very accommodating!

Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!

Maria has watched our senior lab twice - one with home visits and once boarding. Both times we returned home to a happy healthy dog. She is very thoughtful and always has our dog’s best interest in mind. We will continue to use her as a great alternative to the kennnel.

Hoaran was great and her communication was excellent! We appreciated that she took Roman to the dog park to make new friends! She took lots of photos and made my husky feel like he was part of that gang! He can’t wait to hang with Hoaran again!

I recently had Gail take care of my dog, Dior, for a week while I was on vacation. The bond Gail and her dog Ginger formed with Dior was heartwarming. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog, providing plenty of love and attention. Dior came home happy and well-exercised, which is a testament to the great care they received. Safety was a top priority for me, and I felt completely at ease knowing Gail was watching over my pet. [He/She/They] followed all instructions regarding feeding and I appreciated the regular updates and photos that kept me in the loop. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience with Gail. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.

Klaudia was awesome! Our elderly dog had a health crisis while she was caring for him, and she took him to the vet, was very good with communication, and really cared about our guy for 2 days while we made our way home early from vacation. Highest recommendation!!

Being that this was Hannah's first experience away from us, and with the separation anxiety she has, Karina showed a lot of patience and compassion in helping Hannah feel at home. I would highly recommend her if you are in need of a sitter.

Ifan was a great sitter for our big boy Dom. He was very good with communication both before and during the sit. He sent pictures and updates about how Dom was doing and all pertinent information. He was very accommodating with our flexible schedule and wr truly appreciated that. We would definitely utilize his services again and we would recommend him for anyone looking for a top notch sitter.

Let start by saying that this was my first time leaving my 7 month old pup with a sitter so I was a little nervous about leaving her. Christie helped me to feel at ease by sending me pictures of my Zoe looking happy and relaxed in her home. She took great care of my baby and I would definitely use her again.

Allison was great with watching our dog! We had a short notice request and she was able to communicate effectively and efficiently what would work with her schedule along with ours. She sent updates and photos regularly. Our dog had tons of fun running around in her fenced in yard! Thanks again Allison. 10/10 recommend.

Katie and her family were wonderful sitters, giving updates and pictures daily as well as quick responses when messaged. They gave our dog lots of attention and cuddles, even bringing her with to their family Christmas! They also helped fill her stocking with toys and goodies, which our dog is still happily playing with. I would recommend Katie to anyone!

Hank loves his stays at MJ’s. He has so much fun playing with her dogs. He comes home happy & tired from having so much fun. MJ sent pics to ease my mind, and he was having a blast. If you need someone who is comfortable handling a very large breed puppy/dog she is your girl!

Tyler and his girl were a perfect find for a Rover stay. While we’re not from the area, we’re visiting for a wedding. With a fenced in yard and a few dogs of their own Hydee had the BEST play date and sleepover. She had the biggest smile at pick up and has been sleeping in the car ride home. Thank you so much we would definitely book again if in the area
