“Very nice and easy to work with! I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her which says a lot. I'll definitely be utilizing her services again.”
2. Kelsey N.
“Kelsey is an absolutely amazing caregiver for Fitz! This was the second time she has looked after him, and I couldn’t be happier with her care. Fitz was so happy and well-taken care of—he even got to go on fun outings with her! She truly treats him like her own. What impressed me most was Kelsey’s flexibility. I was running really late, and she graciously adjusted without any issues, which was such a relief. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to ensure they are happy and comfortable. I highly recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets. Thank you, Kelsey!”

“This was our first time using DogVacay, and we had a great experience with Sharon. Our initial request was answered in a prompt and professional manner, while her friendly and welcoming personality made us feel instantly at ease with leaving our pup in her care. Sharon's apartment was very clean and more than spacious enough for our small dog. She even sent us a photo during his stay. Highly recommended!”

15. Kim H.
“Jason has been helping us watch our 1+ year old Toy Poodle, Pudding, since January 2024, and we couldn't be happier with the care and attention he provides. Pudding absolutely adores both Jason and his dog, T-Rex. Every time we drop Pudding off, he’s excited to spend the day with them, which speaks volumes about how comfortable and happy he is in their company. Jason is incredibly easy to work with—he’s always prompt, clear, and direct in his communication, making the whole process seamless. His pleasant personality and reliability give us peace of mind knowing Pudding is in great hands. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog with care, affection, and professionalism, I highly recommend Jason. Pudding looks forward to every visit, and we couldn’t ask for a better experience!”
16. Mia & Taowei H.
“Mia and Taowei took wonderful care of my dog, who can be a bit of a handful. They sent lots of updates and awesome pictures, and it looked like she had a great day!”
17. Kevin & Eva Y.
“My dog can be a little anxious in new environments, but Kevin was calm, patient, and gentle. He gave my pup the time and space to adjust, and it clearly paid off — she looked so relaxed and happy in the updates!”
18. Sandra K.
“Sandra’s always wanted to become a veterinarian. If that isn’t already a testament to her love of animals, specifically dogs, I don’t know what is! She loses track of time when she comes across dogs and I know they make her happy just as much as she makes them feel so comforted, loved, and understood. Couldn’t recommend someone more!”
19. Alix R.
“Alix was great with my dog Uri! She made sure to have a meet and greet and learn about Uri and all her quirks. Uri can be really shy and anxious in new surroundings but Alix made sure to understand all of her needs and kept me updated on how she was doing. Highly recommend!!”
