“Chero was amazing she listened as I told her all of Ahuva's needs (not that many 😁) and provided excellent care while I was away. I'm happy Ahuva's so worn out from playing and is such a pleasure to be around not that her zoomies are hopefully out for a week at least 🤞”
“Nic took such good care of Bailey! Nic was so responsive, sent so many pictures, and was so sweet! Bailey got so much love and went on so many walks! I would recommend Nic to anyone and everyone!”
“Jennifer was really responsive and easy to work with! She kept me updated with texts and photos about my dog Maya’s stay. Maya seemed to have a great time :)”
“Abigail was awesome. I have an older dog and am always worried about leaving her. Abigail was so kind and sent many photos treating her like her own. Definitely will you her again and recommend to anyone❤️”
“Christian was awesome! We have a high energy dog and despite freezing weather, we got updates every day of him so happily burning some energy outside. We appreciate the care!”
“It was so great to have our pup stay with Chad for the second time! Chad is so easy to communicate with and clearly takes such good care of our boy - all the love and play time for him we could hope for while we’re away! We will definitely look to rely on Chad and his wife as our regular pup sitters whenever possible!”
“If you have an anxious dog like mine, who needs a quiet, less-stimulating environment, Karla is perfect. She is reliable, communicative, and understands a dog's needs. I'm a repeat customer and highly recommend her.”
“Diana & Scott were wonderful! I felt super comfortable leaving my elderly dog with them and could tell she was very well taken care of! Also they sent great pictures! Would definitely recommend them!”
“Emilie was beyond wonderful— so communicative and great at catering to my dog and all his quirks. My pup literally didn’t want to come home because he had so much fun with Emilie and his new friend Bear!”
“Amalia is the best! She is great with dogs - my 6 year old spaniel was wagging her tail and super comfortable from the moment we met (which isn’t typical). Amalia is extremely reliable, communicates regularly and just a really great person. I highly recommend Amalia and we plan to use her services whenever we need daycare or boarding. I am so grateful to have found such a reliable and responsible sitter.”
“Bear was so well taken care of with Maria! She sends pictures and videos everyday and accommodates all his special needs. I even last minute had to extend my boarding and she was able to do so with no issue. I know Bear is in good hands whenever he’s with Maria!”
“K & A were wonderful friendly hosts to our bernedoodle for 4 nights. We appreciate the daily photos and videos. Our dog seemed comfortable and well cared for with walks and playtimes. We highly recommend K & A.”
“It was so nice to reconnect our Kento with Sade for doggie daycare. Sade always takes care of Kento's needs and is great with him. We'll definitely call upon her again when we need Kento to be watched. Thanks Sade!!!”
“Amazing sitter! Our puppy had a great time and was calm, tired and happy when we picked him up. Thank you for all the pictures and for being so flexible. Definitely coming back!”

Rebeca did an outstanding job with our nervous puppy. She was very patient with his puppy energy even as our dog unfortunately was not very well behaved. Rebeca did a great job keeping us up to date on everything going on and sent us lots of pictures. I would highly recommend for anyone needing dog watching services.
Excellent care for our dog, Izzy! We received great updates and photos, and it was clear she was happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. We would absolutely trust them with Izzy again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
Abaigael was amazing with Aya! She sent frequent updates and I could tell from the pictures that Aya was so happy with her and her family! Super friendly and communicative, I'm super grateful to know Aya was in great company! Oh and she has the cutest pup! Thanks again!
Jennifer took care of our exuberant shepherd mix for a week while we were out of town. She was always communicative and flexible with dropoff and pickup. We never had any worries and he always is excited to visit Jennifer. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Jennifer!
My shiba Yuki had an amazing stay with Claire! He was spoiled with lots of backyard playtime and long walks. It’s always stressful traveling when I think about my dog but for the first time I had no worries about Yuki as I knew he was in great hands. Claire consistently sent updates throughout the day that made it my day to see him happy. Thank you so much for taking great care of my needy baby!
Cheri was INCREDIBLY AWESOME!!!! Niky was exceptionally well taken care of. Can't recommend her enough. Niky has a bunch of medicine needs and is an older senior dog so she needs a little extra care. Cheri was amazing about it all. Will have her watch Niky again soon!! Great experience.
We had a wonderful experience with Rima! She took great care of our dogs, Milo and Oreo, and our cat, Cleo, while we were away. They were all very happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. She treated them like her own and gave us peace of mind throughout the stay. We truly appreciated the love and attention she gave them, and we would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Karla did a great job taking care of our dog, Lucky. We’ve only had Lucky for a few months, and as a rescue from Texas, he has a lot of separation anxiety. Karla was very understanding and made him feel relaxed and at home, while also being patient with all of his little foibles. She sent us lots of pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. She also has a great setup for dogs, including a large long condo with plenty of space for running around. We would definitely recommend Karla to others!
