“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our Oreo! From the very beginning, she was attentive, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. What truly set her apart was the daily updates—every day we received texts with photos and little notes about how Oreo was doing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Oreo looked so happy and well cared for in every picture! It was clear she treated him like one of her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pup. Thank you again Katherine for everything!”
“Araceli was amazing she took my dog on in very short notice for the holiday weekend. Very kind, clean home very dog friendly. She treated my dog as if she was her own. She gave updates which was very appreciated. I would 100% book again with her. Thank you so much Araceli.”
“I would definitely be using Jessica for Future bookings. She's nice and pleasant soft spoken and gentle with my cats. Jessica sent such cute pictures of the cats to let me know how they were doing throughout the day. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a pet sitter”
“Hendrix has a second family. He fit in so well here with their kids and dogs. I was tempted to extend his vacation because of how much the family loved and took care of him. He’ll most definitely be back.”
“Robin and Rahn took care of my girl like she was their own! It was our first time leaving our pup behind and I’m so happy that it was with them. Lots of cuddles, play time and updates every morning and night! My girl had the best time with them, I HIGHLY recommend Robin and Rahn if you’re looking for the best sitter for your pups. I will be rebooking with them every time I travel!!! Thank you again :)”
“I booked with Izac just a couple days before. Communication was super easy and he and his wife were very reassuring and experienced (I’m always the more anxious one when leaving my dogs). Drop off and pick up were quick and simple. I would definitely leave my babies with them again!”
“Carolina was a great sitter for our baby. Her home was very welcoming and open. She kept our dog busy and active with walks and consistently sent us updates and photos. Definitely hope they are available anytime we are in need of a sitter again. I can't praise them enough.”
“Gigi had a wonderful stay with Taruna! She was super communicative, sending plenty of updates and adorable photos throughout the visit. Taruna was also incredibly accommodating, which made me feel confident that Gigi was in great hands. Gigi seemed happy and relaxed the entire time. When she got home, she was totally wiped and went straight to bed—which only happens after she's had a fun and exciting day! We’re definitely looking forward to booking with Taruna again.”
“Lisa is incredible! Not only is she super kind and helpful for drop off and picks ups but my pup is OBSESSED!! Lisa is so great about taking mango on tons of walks and socializing her with other dogs. Lisa is also great about keeping me informed with daily messages and pictures. I feel like I save her pictures as my background more often than my own! All in all, mango and I will always go to Lisa :)”
“Jinni took a very good care of Tigra. She is very responsive, and it was easy to onboard, communicate and followed feeding instructions. Looked like my cat loved being with Jinni a lot!”
“Went above and beyond for our baby yuki and sent so many pictures! She updated us regularly when yuki started showing some irritation in the paws and checked on her health and well-being regularly. Thank you so much to you and your whole family Samantha! You're all doing absolutely amazing 👏”
“Alisiene was wonderful to my Australian Shepherd. I had never used Rover before and was uneasy about it at first, but the experience could not have been better. Alisiene was extremely responsive, sent pictures and updates daily, and even sent Oliver home with some homemade treats. I would reccomend her to anyone and I am sure Oliver will be returning soon!”
“If you get nervous like me about leaving your pup with someone, look no further!!! Tuck stayed with Zannah, Doug and their foster pup Sonny for two nights and had the best time. Zannah frequently provided updates with photos and videos. If I could give more stars, I would!”
“Rebecca went above and beyond for our little Sugar. Sugar has an abscess removed the day before boarding arrangements. Rebecca had no problem taking care of her and making sure she was comfortable. Highly recommended. Sugar will be going back, if needed.”
“Emma was responsive and was flexible about some changes in my schedule. She provided plenty of pics and my little guy got along great with her dog. Odie seemed happy and I could tell he had a lot of fun playing with his new friends. I would definitely recommend Emma and next time I’m in San Diego and need a pet sitter will be booking with her :)”
