“Ying took such amazing care of our dog, Bailey! She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos! He seemed to really enjoy her pup and met a few more friends at her place too! She followed all of our instructions, and truly got to know him and listen to his cues. Thank you!!!!”

“Bagheera had very good care with Jess and Kimmy. Their big fenced yard and friendly dog made him comfortable, and he became attached to Kimmy! I will definitely ask them to care for my little sweetie again!”

“Mike is great with dogs. My pup had plenty of walks and playtime with couple of other dogs in the roomy backyard, and he got lots of pets and affection. I would definitely leave my dog with him again.”

“Fang took great care of our dog Aspen during her weekend stay. She is very responsive and flexible and sent many updates with pictures and videos during her stay. Thank you so much for taking great care of our pup! Will definitely book again in the future 😊”

“When I met Jae on the meet & greet I knew she was a very conscientious dog owner and Bella would be in good hands. She took great care of her and she was open to taking Bella without a lot of prior notice. She sent photos and kept me informed on how Bella was getting along. I would not hesitate to leave Bella again with Jae.”

“Yun was an excellent sitter for our dog Orzo! Our friends who usually watch Orzo were out of town, and Yun was happy to accomodate our booking within a week’s notice. Yun was communicative and sent us daily updates on Orzo’s behavior. We especially appreciate the fact that Yun was flexible with Orzo’s pickup time — our flight was late which made us ~45 min delayed in our agreed upon pickup time. Thank you, Yun! 🤗”

“Meerim was an incredible dog sitter. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She sent updates and pictures throughout the stay, and communicated how things were going so I didn't worry at all. So grateful that we found her! Will 100% book again xx”

“Margaret is a true dog person and I felt at ease leaving my girl in her care. She does an excellent job of managing her pack and making sure all dogs are safe and comfortable. My dog is ~80 lbs and has her quirks, so I can't leave her in the hands of just anyone. I am so glad to have found a home environment that my dog is comfortable in while I am out of town and will certainly book with Margaret again.”

“India had a wonderful visit with Olga and her family. She was loved, walked and cuddled. I received lots of photos and videos and felt completely assured India was in good hands. I loved that India had access to her yard, dog park and lots of walks. I am absolutely going to rebook Olga for India. I feel completely lucky to find Olga, she is a gem, thoughtful, responsible and naturally an animal person.”

“Mora is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! She treated our dogs like family. Took them to parks and on hikes. They came back home very happy and well taken care of. Mora also sent many pictures and also gave our dogs lots of affection. Bonus is she has a fenced in backyard. We will definitely be calling Mora again!”

About: Firm yet loving care for all dogs, specializing in puppy training, high energy, hiking/running, and managing complex medical needs like seizures, food sensitivities, and limited mobility.

My approach to pet care is rooted in structure, trust, and genuine affection. My services will be tailored to each dog's needs indoors or outdoors.

“Matthew and Katelyn were amazing! They took such great care of our pup for the night and made everything super easy. They sent updates and photos, and I could tell Coco was having a great time and felt totally comfortable. When we picked him up, he was happy and relaxed. I’m so glad we found them — I’d definitely book again!”

“My pup stayed with Manli for a week when I had to go out of town. Communication was very easy, she is very responsive. We received great photo updates every night. When I came to pick my pup up at the end of his stay, he appears to have made a couple of new friends! He didn’t notice me at first because he was having such a great time. I would definitely use her again for dog-sitting!”

“Jessica is truly amazing and left me fully at ease leaving Howie in her care. She is a sweet, kind and caring person and genuinely cared for my dog beyond expectation! I could tell Howie felt comfortable with her from the get go, and could tell even more that he was getting attached by the end of my trip. Howie would love to see Jessica again in the future ❤️”

“Peanut had his trial day with Shannon today and everything went great. She took wonderful care of him, kept us updated with lots of photos, and made us feel very comfortable the whole time. We could see that he was happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with her again in the future”

“Jifu did a great job taking care of my dog Taco. Taco was shy and afraid as this was his first stay away from family. Jifu was patient with Taco, and he was able to get more comfortable after a day. I received updates and photos from Jifu during the stay. I would book Jifu again. Thank you!”


“Mel and his family took excellent care of our pup. From daily walks and lots of time playing outside to introducing him to other kids, it was clear he was getting plenty of attention and socialization. Mel was also incredibly communicative, sending prompt updates along with great pictures and videos throughout the stay. It made us feel completely at ease knowing our pup was in such good hands. We’d absolutely recommend Mel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

We had a very busy weekend where our Chaweenie, Miso, would have had to be alone for large stretches, or travel non-stop in a car all day. So we decided to find a "surrogate family" for the weekend. Shobi, her husband, and girls took great care of her. When I picked her up, she seemed relaxed and happy. We will for sure book more stays with Shobi and her lovely family!

This was XiaoJiu’s second stay with Tracy, and we had another great experience! I felt very comfortable leaving XiaoJiu with her and really appreciated the updates and photos throughout the stay. XiaoJiu always looked happy and well cared for. Thank you so much, Tracy! We’ll definitely book with you again!

Ying provided a fantastic boarding experience for 16 days for my dog. She took my dog for at least two walks per day, played fetch with her every day, and also took her on a longer hike. She sent me extensive updates three times per day with numerous photos and videos. The detailed information allowed me to see that my dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Ying’s dog Charlie is also incredibly gentle and calm, and although my dog is often anxious around other dogs, they became great friends. While I was away, my dog also developed some irritation in her paws, likely due to pre-existing allergies. Ying informed me promptly and treated the problem effectively per my instructions, and her paws were completely healed by the time I returned to pick her up. I highly recommend Ying for boarding and I won’t hesitate to use her again the next time I travel.

Angela and Kangwoong were amazing hosts for my dog Arisha. Arisha is a very shy dog but she felt at home staying at their place. I don't know if it's common but she was the only dog during her stay which made the stay extra special. Angela sent me 2 pictures a day as updates about the stay. I am ashamed to say it but I feel like Arisha was treated better than I am able to do at home... I would be extremely comfortable with and would love having Angela host Arisha again in the future.

This is the third time Kelly and Ben have taken care of Nia during our annual visits to Palo Alto. Nia is right at home with both of them and can’t wait to get to their apartment when we drop her off. She loves her walks on campus and Kelly sends fun pics. We know Nia will be happy there and Kelly and Ben will take good care of her.

Emma is great! She has watched Kovu several times now. Emma sends updates and photos so you know your pup is in good hands. Her dog is very friendly and Kovu enjoys staying there. Emma also doesn’t watch multiple dogs at once so your dog doesn’t feel overwhelmed. I love that she has a yard too that they can play in. Emma is flexible and reliable!

Our energetic English cocker spaniel just spent nearly a month with Tillana, as our family enjoyed some summer travels. This was our longest stint away from Ruby, and we were all missing her so much, but felt reassured that she was in GREAT hands with Tillana. She would send regular "pupdates" with photos and videos and reports of Ruby's adventures--puppy playdates, hikes in Portola Valley, outings to the beach in HMB, and even visits to some of the local shops in Tillana's lovely neighborhood. Ruby honestly had a vacation adventure of her own, which made us feel so much better about leaving her for so long. We will definitely board Ruby with Tillana again during future travels.
