“Gisella was amazing at responding to my last minute message to watch my Frenchy Mochi. She did an amazing job updating me throughout my shift his activities and with any questions she had. She also sent lovely photos. I would use Gisella again. 😊”

“Dylan was a great communicator and kept us updated with pictures during our pups stay. Nice yard dogs to run around. I’d be happy to leave Eve with him again 🙂”

“Mariana was a great sitter for our pups. She was very transparent in making sure it was OK if she had other dogs at the house. She was very thorough and made me feel like she really cared for the boys. She sent tons of pictures which were great! They came home happy and sleepy! :)”

“Alyssa was very dependable, caring & made sure to update us on our kitties progress. Our cat is very shy & scared but managed to warm up to Alyssa & cuddle with her. Told us a lot & would definitely recommend her & trust her again for our scaredy cat! She is a gem!!”

“Jennifer was great! She is obviously very experienced and knowledgeable about dogs. My pup had some unexpected problems adjusting to being away from us for an extended period of time and she was very understanding and kind. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and loving sitter.”

“Excellent experience overall with Loc. From our initial meet-and-greet prior to Vinny's stay, all the way through to picking up my pup, Loc communicated great and was flexible about our pick up and drop off times. Vinny had a great time with Rosie and the other pups at Loc's house, which I know because Loc sent me some really nice pics throughout my whole time on vacation. I would definitely book with Loc again in a heartbeat!”

“Mollie took great care of our pup! You could tell that she loves caring for animals. She sent so many great pictures and was great at putting our family at ease while she watched our pup! We will definitely have her watch our dog again!”


“Ethan really filled in in a pinch for us when our sitter situation didn’t work out less than 12 hours beforehand. Super responsive, and having a really awesome setup and really thoughtful care, I’d highly recommend Ethan!”


“So grateful for last minute dog care! Val truly made our 15 year old pup feel at home and we have the pictures she shared with us to prove it ?Our dog typically doesn’t eat when kenneling (due to anxiety), so when we arrived to pick him up and noticed the majority of his food eaten we were very impressed. Thank you Val for taking such great care of our furry family member!”

“Took fantastic care of Mimi! Mimi can be an anxious dog but she warmed up to Kelly real quick🩷. The frequent updates kept us reassured during our trip that she is in great hands.”

“Van took great care of Mav during his stay. Response time was very quick and communication was clear. I received updates throughout his visit with plenty of pictures and videos. Mr. Mav got a nice long walk, playtime in a secure yard, grooming, and plenty of supervision and attention. They paid attention to his behavior and needs, including managing minor reactivity appropriately on walks. Mav came home happy, well cared for, and settled, and I would feel comfortable booking with Van again.”

“Took excellent care of our active young dog. Sent photos and videos daily. He definitely had a good time playing with her dogs! Thank you for all your help while we were away!”

“Christopher is so kind and understanding! He knew our cat was skittish and he took the time to set up a room where she could be on her own at first, then took his time getting to know her and letting her explore as she became more comfortable. We appreciate his thoughtfulness and concern for the animal.”
“Christen and Hugo are amazing! Our Mello looked so happy in the pictures they shared with us. They really treat our dog like their own. We will definitely be repeat customers in the near future!”

“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!”

“Kristin was great to work with and she was very reliable and happy to have our dog in her home. She was very responsive and worked with us on any special needs for our dog. Kristin sent us pictures during the visit and kept us updated and was great about flexible drop off and pick up. We will definitely be using her again soon!”

“I am so lucky to have such a great Rover. The attentiveness to my babies even when my little girl is being a brat is such a blessing. I can not recommend Diahann enough.”

Dylan was a true God send in accepting my last minute booking. So flexible and understanding during the entire stay. My pup normally won’t eat for anyone when I’m away and she ate full bowls of food both nights so I know she was having the best time! His pups are so friendly and Dylan is attentive, caring and kind to all the dogs. He sent me videos and pictures of Patch while I was away and kept me updated without any prompting. Very appreciative to find such a great sitter on short notice.

Highly recommend!!!! My pug Nala had a blast with Loc. Loc shared lots of pics and videos of my smiling pup eating snacks and walks around the neighborhood while wagging her tail. Kept me updated on my pup daily and very responsive to any questions I had. Loc is very accommodating and helped me in bind when last minute boarding plans didn't work out and was available for pick up at 9pm.( So grateful as I had a flight at 7am the next day) Very grateful for him to take great care of Nala. Highly recommend!!!! Will use Loc's services again. My pup came home happy and exhausted from all the fun she was having.

Val's place is wonderfully set up for dogs. My two had an excellent time at "camp" and were obviously well cared for and happy when I picked them up. I contacted Val less than a week before my trip, when one of my dogs had just been to the emergency vet and I needed a place for her that would be able to keep an eye on her full time while I was gone. Val was more than willing to take this on, and my dog continued to heal well in her care.

Our two poodles had a wonderful stay! She was caring, communicative, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving them for the day. They came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
