“Steven was flexible and easy to work with. He seems to be very knowledgable about dogs and treats them with care. I received regular updates and photos while we were away. I think that Dusty enjoyed his stay!”

“As always, Whitney and Michael took the best care of our two doggies! The dogs are comfortable with them, and they keep us updated along the way. Their kids also do great with the dogs, and their own doggies get along well with ours. We will continue to use Whitney and Michael for future stays. Don’t hesitate to try them out!”

“This was the first time Joey was staying at Tanvi’s place and he loved it. We were initially a bit worried, as this was a 14 day trip and Joey hadn’t stayed with any sitter for this long, but Joey had a blast. We got daily pictures and videos of Joey as well. I would highly recommend Tanvi.”

“Kristen did a fabulous job, she is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog had a great vacation in her place. She took a fantastic care of him. She regularly updated me with pictures and videos. She kept me posted frequently and that helped a lot. Thank you so much Kristen and I would love to be a repeat customer for my pet and greatly recommend her. Thanks again.”

“Noria was fantastic with my dog Nala. She boarded her in her home and made sure Nala had lots of fun and was well cared for. Norias love for animals shows through in all she does while caring for my puppy. Noria is very enthusiastic, warm and caring. I would highly recommend her services.”

“Both my dogs felt at home and had a great time during their stay. Maureen took great care of them and kept up updated with lots of pictures. We are so glad we choose to board them with Maureen.”

“My dog had a great time! Amy is very helpful and with daily updates and pictures to help us know things are good! Make our away time a lot easier. We would definitely use again in the near future!”

“We were very happy with Brody's stay with Lucy. She kept us updated with photos and videos and was very flexible and on-the-ball with the pickup and drop off process. Will definitely book again!”

“Samantha was great. Very attentive to our dog and his needs and provided regular updates. Her dog cocoa was also very sweet. Would recommend to anyone in the area”

“Joanne was great with Bruno. We got plenty of pictures, which made us feel at ease during our trip. We will be booking her again! Smooth meet and greet process as well as drop off/pixkuo.”

“Purvi was fantastic with our pup Roo. Roo took to her right away and she did so much to make him feel comfortable. Purvi sent frequent photos and updates about how Roo was doing, which we really appreciated. She also facilitated pick up and drop off, which is a major help for us. We look forward to booking Purvi again soon!!”

“Yvette was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time boarding with Rover and it was a great experience. She treated my dog like her own & it was obvious they had a good time! Yvette sent lots of pictures & videos, took my dog on a bunch of long walks and played fetch. She has a great set up in her house with plenty of toys and the perfect backyard for play. Would highly recommend Yvette!”

“We were very happy with the care our dog received from Raj. Our puppy is 18 months and has never been away from us until she needed boarding for 8 nights. We received photos and videos from Raj daily which was so appreciated. We could tell that our pup was being taken care of like she was their own dog. We would definitely use Raj again and very highly recommend.”

“Jenny is such a great dog sitter! She watches our Italian greyhound puppy on a weekly basis and is so great at updating us on how he is doing, being patient when he gets anxious or nervous, and is very flexible and communicative. She is also very conscious of dog interactions and made time to have our puppy meet hers beforehand. Would definitely recommend.”

Mango seemed really happy during her stay — I’m confident she had a great time with Riley and Tao’s family. She went in with a wagging tail and came back just as cheerful! They shared photos throughout her stay — not as frequent as I’ve received from others, but still enough to keep me reassured. I’ll definitely book with them again!

Tao's home is beautiful and accommodating to pets. We met his wife and instantly realized this family truly loves to care for dogs. Her questions were catered to my dog's needs. She instantly connected with "Halo" and I just knew Halo would be very well cared for. After his stay, Halo returned happy and content. We will absolutely return again.
