Devan was excellent with Pepper, and was extremely meticulous in his communication. We received constant text and photo updates during his stay and that’s one of the most important qualities when caring for a pet.

Tianci took good care of Bagel! I enjoyed the shared Google photo album very much as they walked Bagel around the city and kindly also took him to the treat store.

Samantha was absolutely wonderful taking care of Teddy. Teddy had lots of fun playing with Samantha, meeting her friends and taking very long walks with her! Samantha was so patient with Teddy when he was first nervous. She sent me consistent updates on Teddy & each time, it looked like he was having a blast. In fact, after she took care of Teddy, Teddy & I ran into her on a walk and he was soooo excited to see her again. Definitely recommend Samantha - she was kind, responsive, and made Teddy feel right at home in her place.

Michael was an amazing sitter for my dog and communicator for me!! We had a last minute schedule change and were traveling to Seattle unexpectedly. Michael was so helpful and accommodating to make this work with less notice than usual! He was prompt and communicative sending me pictures of Sox updates along the way. His dog Ellie was very chill and seemed to get along with Sox great. I definitely would (and will!) work with Michael again!

Debra is an incredibly caring and well organized care giver. Our Hazel is kind of delicate, has some tummy issues, delicate teeth, and also separation anxiety. She was with Debra for 5 days while we were out of town and Debra followed all our detailed notes and sent us regular updates throughout the day. We could see that Hazel was having a great time, getting lots of attention, playing with toys, watching the world from the huge window Debra has. She came back totally herself, with no signs of the stress which we have noticed with some other sitters. I would highly recommend Debra and we will definitely have Hazel stay with her especially for longer stays.

I couldn’t recommend Mengyuan highly enough! From the moment we first met, it was clear she genuinely loves and understands dogs. Mengyuan sent regular updates and adorable photos, which kept me completely at ease. She even cooked beef for my dog! Coco came home happy, healthy, and clearly bonded to them—which says a lot, as she can be a bit shy with new people. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and thorough to care for your pup, look no further! I’ll definitely be booking with Mengyuan again.

Jessica was an amazing dogsitter for our pup who stayed with her for a full week. Jessica communicated with us often while our dog was with her and cared for him as if he was her own dog. It's clear she has a love for dogs and a lot of experience caring for them. Jessica's care gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were on vacation. I would fully recommend Jessica without any reservations. ★★★★★

AJ was wonderful with our dog Bo for a full 2 weeks! We were traveling internationally so not the most available given the time difference but AJ was super communicative and sent loads of updates. They took such great care of Bo - in the extreme heat, when he got a foxtail in his foot, when he needed brushing. We felt Bo was well cared for and loved while we were away, letting us truly relax while on vacation.
