“Truly not enough good things to say about Ethan and our experience with him caring for our dog, Taco. From the beginning, Ethan was super responsive and easy to communicate with him. We right away felt at ease leaving our dog with Ethan and it just worked out perfectly. Every day, Ethan sent us videos and pictures, and it was clear he was loving on our dog as much as he does his own. I’m usually a worry wart when it comes to leaving my dog with anyone. Not this time. And Taco even came home smelling fresh, Ethan bathed him before pickup! More importantly, Taco was a happy pup.”
“Molly was wonderful. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind and reassured us that our dogs were safe, happy, and well cared for. She is kind, attentive, and clearly loves animals. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and would not hesitate to recommend her to others.”
“Very personable and friendly. Great with our dog River right off the bat. Got pictures throughout the boarding, which made it easier. Her dog and River got along well!!”
“Mariana and her daughter were excellent caretakers of our two small pups! She sent lots of pictures, was super responsive, and very clearly loves dogs (and our dogs in particular)! We will be working with Mariana a lot over the coming years and are super excited to know her!”
“Melody did great job talking care Max . She sanded me pictures and write the notes about the Max and how he loves to cuddle with her and follow her around. Melody is very nice and she loves being taken care of Max . I’m really appreciate her.”
“Kelly has been fantastic! My pup Toshi has stayed with her a couple of nights and she has been so accommodating! She has sent me photos and updates which definitely puts me at ease. She has a large yard and her cute pup Khloe also keeps my dog company. You could tell she loves animals! I cannot recommend her enough, and I will always try and reach out if I need to book another stay for my pup. Thank you, Kelly!”
“Duke and I are so glad we found Kayle! We have booked two stays with her, one being an 11 day stay (with a 3rd one coming up soon!) and she has been nothing short of amazing. She is very attentive to Duke and has treated him like her own since the first night. She is very flexible which is a bonus for me as I am active duty military (100% recommend). We have definitely found our Washington sitter in Kayle and will continue to book with her for as long as she will have us!! You can feel very comfortable and confident in Kayle’s ability to care for your pet. She keeps open communication through the entire stay and gives your fur baby lots of love while you’re away!! ❤️❤️ 🐶”
“Thanks Sherry for taking such great care of my pet! She was incredibly responsible throughout the day care today. She always provides timely photo and videos and takes absolutely great care of Charli and she came home so happy that I highly recommended Sherry! Definitely will book Again!”
“Ren took great care of my dog during my 7 day vacation to the UK and France! I received regular pictures and updates during my time away. Would book again in the future!”
“Kristin fit me in on super short notice, and was wonderful when it came to communication. It was amazing to know my skiddish, nervous dog had a safe place to run around and be himself while I was away!”
“Gisella always takes great care of my bulldog Walter. He loves going there and getting to play with Gisella’s dog Brownie. Gisella is always communicative and flexible, would 100% recommend.”
“Jill and Glen just watched Nova over the 4th of July holiday weekend and we couldn’t be happier with the care they provide! They send daily updates with messages and pictures, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear they genuinely care about making Nova feel comfortable, loved, and at home. They truly go above and beyond, and we will absolutely continue booking with them. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet sitters!”
“Brittany was awesome! We had a super last minute request for our 5 month old Newfoundland and she was so kind and accommodating. Our pup had a great time, was very well cared for and safe! We will absolutely use Brittany again in the near future.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! So kind and sent LOTS of pictures while I was away to let me know Molly was happy and safe. I’m so grateful for their wonderful help and kindness! Would absolutely recommend 😁”
“Val was so caring to our grumpy cat. Thank you for taking such good care of her. Val sent frequent updates and photos. Val is very professional and provides great service. She was flexible on pick up on drop off which was appreciated.”
“Christopher did such a good job taking care of my Kylo. He updated me frequently and I felt secure while I was on my 2 week trip that my puppy had everything he needed.”
“I was able to board my dog Tex at Leslie’s on short notice and it turned out to be a great fit. Her dog Bruce is very well trained and got along great with my dog, who’s more interested in human friends than other dogs. She was able to administer his medication with no issues and kept the pups happy and active. She’s reliable, communicative, and took great care of Tex. I will definitely board my dog with her again! :)”
“This is our third time boarding Moose with Lôc and we have nothing but totally positive things to say! Moose LOVES staying with Lôc and gets visibly excited whenever Lôc comes to pick him up for a stay. Lôc updates us at least once a day with pictures & videos, and is always on time with pickup and drop off, keeping us updated on his timeline, and being a great communicator. We highly recommend!”
“Dee Anne is so sweet and takes such great care of our pup! She gives him a great mix of play time and exercise and cuddles. Max loves his sleepovers and quality time with Dee Anne, and is always SO excited when he can visit!”
“Lizzie was incredible! My Bruce had sooooo much fun staying with her pack (human and animals alike). Her own dogs were very friendly with him and welcoming, and she spoiled him with lots of long walks, trips to the dog park, and games of fetch. He was a super happy pup when I picked him up and can't wait to book with her again!”

Mckayla is AWESOME !! I had no worries about my colibri being taken care of ,, I was getting constant updates and our girls played together sooo well!!! I had a family emergency and mckayla was very supportive and understanding. Great Dog mom inside and out !! Definitely will be bring my girl back with her for the future ! Definitely recommend !!!!
Molly is amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I am so thankful that I found her! My senior dog is very clingy, hard of hearing and loves to be right next to her people. I could tell from the daily pictures that Ginger was more than happy and comfortable in Molly’s care. She is kind, responsive and definitely a true lover of animals. She showered Ginger with all the love and care. I cannot recommend Molly enough and will definitely be reaching out to her again for all of our dog sitting needs!
Melody was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She’s very sweet, patient, and clearly loves animals. She has two adorable, playful little Chihuahuas, and there’s plenty of space for the dogs to run around, play, and get comfortable. I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her and would happily book with her again.
Ethan’s home is a puppy paradise. He took such good care of my husky and was thoroughly communicative throughout her stay. If you’re looking for a professional sitter who consistently updates you and has a home/yard designed for active play, this is your sitter. Best I’ve found in Tacoma! 10/10, highly recommend!
Juli was absolutely wonderful with our dog while we were away on vacation! From the moment we met her, we could tell how much she genuinely loves dogs. She was incredibly kind, caring, and attentive, and she treated our dog like family. She kept us updated throughout our trip and sent us the sweetest pictures of our dog playing, having fun, and enjoying her time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for while we were away. Juli is truly one of the kindest and most thoughtful sitters we have ever had. We couldn’t have asked for someone better to care for our dog, and we would absolutely trust her again. We highly recommend Juli to anyone looking for a loving, dependable, and wonderful dog sitter! ❤️🐾
Elizabeth was an amazing angel when my family needed emergency boarding for my mom's dog when she went into the hospital. It was so late for booking I was scared we wouldn't find anyone. Then thiS AMAZING HUMAN came to meet the pup and brought her home with her for a weeks stay. Callie was treated like a member of their family there and got her favorite thing in the world, all the snuggles! I love that I didn't need to worry about her at all during her stay so we could focus on our family emergency. Will definitely re-book if we need someone to watch her again
Great first stay with Kevin and Vonnie. Our 11 year old yellow lab was well taken care of. Hosts were great communicators, attentive and clearly enjoyed time with Lily. Their home was perfect with a large secure backyard and comfortable inside. We have already booked a future stay.
We have booked with Micayla several times for boarding at her house and our dog always comes back to us tired out and happy. She sends us adorable pics throughout our dog’s stay as she is playing with other pups in Micayla’s care and it looks like our dog is smiling in each pic:) Will definitely re-book with her when the need arises. Thank you!
My girl had a wonderful time and Keana was a fantastic host for her. She got lots of walks and attention while I was away. Keana was a perfect host for an anxious dog mom. I enjoyed all the photos of their adventures together and am glad to know I have a great dog sitter for the next time I’m out of town!
