“Sarah and her husband accommodated another short notice overnight with my big, goofy puppy. She was very flexible with arranging the care and sent many updates through the day. They make sure dogs in their care get whatever they need- exercise, playtime, attention and love. 😀”
“Melissa and Dan have helped my dog learn to play with other dogs. They send lots of great pictures every day. They take dogs for walks, and they also have a giant fenced backyard.”
“This was our first time using Rover. We always had a family member watch our dog so we were nervous trusting someone else. Traci and Jeff went out of their way to make our dog feel like part of their family. Pictures were sent twice a day with a brief update. I would not hesitate to use them again. They are good people.”
“Margarita is amazing, she regularly updated me on my baby boy by posting pictures and videos every morning and evening. I was nervous initially but she put my anxiety to rest. Thank you Margarita ?”
“Meena and her husband are very responsible dog sitter. They sent photos of Sunny although it was just 1 day stay. They accommodated my request as well. I definitely like to my dog stay Meena's place in the future.”

“Lenny was very warm and welcoming. She took good care of Oreo and kept me posted with daily activities with messages, pictures and videos. Oreo was very happy. Will definitely keep Oreo with Lenny again!”
“Suneetha was great with our Pup. She took the time in understanding all the care instructions and made sure they were all followed. She also ensured our Pup felt comfortable in the new environment. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Angela and Michael took great care of our Molly. We're so grateful for their care and patience with our 14 year old pup! Their communication was prompt and helpful. Angela and Michael provided a wonderful, safe, and supportive environment for Molly.”
“Sonia was great with Theo. She was very communicative and courteous. I loved the pictures and updates Sonia sent during Theo’s stay, catching him in ridiculous positions. She’s very experienced and knowledgeable about dogs having a senior dog herself. Would definitely recommend Sonia and would have Theo stay with her again.”

“Anmol, Trupti, and their boys were amazing with Dunston! They are the best sitters we have left him with! They sent us so many updates (photos and videos) so we were never worried about what was happening with Dunston. You can tell that they do this because of how much they love dogs and they showered our fur baby with love. Dunston got in the car and ran back into their garage when we picked him up because he wasn't ready to leave!! This truly is the best home away from home!”
“Bailey had a wonderful time staying with you again. She has so much fun with you and bonnie. We drop her off with a wagging tail and return to pick her up just as happy as when we left. You guys are awesome pet sitters!”

“Angela did such a wonderful job with my dog Jessie. I was so nervous leaving my dog ith someone other than family. I asked for references and she didnt hesitate. Her set up for the dogs was beutiful. Her other dogs were so welcoming and did really well. She took my dog on a hike daily to meet with sheep from a neighboring farm. How cool.

Chandar was absolutely fantastic. This was our first experience leaving our dog, and Chandar did everything we asked plus more. He gave us updates twice a day and photos of our dog throughout the day. From the photos and the feedback from Chandar, you know that your dog feels at home, calm and cared for. Our dog ate, slept well and got walked twice a day. Chandar went above and beyond in every element possible. Thanks Chandar we look forward to traveling again in the future with a stay again with you.
Chandar and his family are like a second home and family to Ruth. They truly love dogs and care for Ruth as if she’s their own (she’s already had 3 stays with them). And Ruth loves them, too!! They are so good to her and spoil her with belly rubs and miles-long sunrise and sunset walks. Chandar sends professional grade photos of Ruth with beautiful, artistic, and often charming backdrops (e.g., a hot air balloon, Princeton campus, dog zodiac statute). Chandar’s family is so welcoming, warm, and kind and it’s always a pleasure to see them when we drop off or pick up Ruth. They have also been incredibly accommodating, welcoming Ruth on short notice or letting her stay late. So happy that we met them!
I had a wonderful experience with this pet boarding service by Chandrasekar. The boarding process was very smooth from start to finish, and the caregiver took the time to understand all the instructions regarding my pet’s food, routine, and special care needs. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. What impressed me the most was how relaxed and comfortable my pet seemed. Usually, my pet takes some time to adjust to new environments, but this time it was clear that they felt safe, cared for, and well looked after. I received updates and could tell my pet was getting plenty of attention and affection. I would absolutely recommend this boarding service to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their pet, and I will definitely use them again in the future
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.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
