It’s really clear that Tracy takes phenomenal care of our dog. We got tons of pictures daily and updates on her day to day activities. Our dog also loved them and was excited to stay there. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again at all

I know my dog was well taken care of and happy with Manli. She was super communicative and shared daily photo updates, which I appreciated. She made sure to ask about anything she should know about my dog before I left for my trip. I would definitely recommend her and would board my dog with her again.

Michael is a fantastic dogsitter! He takes the dogs on looooong walks and sends lots of photos. My only complaint is that I think my dog liked him better than us and sulked the day we brought her home!! But that's not his fault!

I always feel at ease dropping Enzo off with Margaret. He is a unique dog with some health issues and Margaret is well equipped and knowledgeable about his care. She goes out of the way to take care of him and I always feel reassured he is in good hands.

Meerim and her partner were absolutely amazing dog sitters for my family’s 9 year old dog! She handled our dog’s reactive tendencies around other dogs like a pro and was incredibly prompt in responding and sending pics throughout the stay. Our dog was very happy and comfortable with Meerim due to her attentive, gentle, and loving nature - I would readily recommend Meerim to anyone looking for the best pet care around and we will definitely happily rebook!

Min Jin and Mi Ran were so wonderful to work with and watch Theo. They were incredibly responsive, gave multiple updates with lots of photos (which I greatly appreciated) and were more than willing to spend time to make sure he would eat (as it always takes him a bit to settle into a new routine). They did an absolutely amazing job watching Theo and I would highly recommend them!

Yun and Lina are very kind and caring. Tobin can definitely be naughty, he loves food and will try to eat anything he can, but he was well loved and comfortable in their home. I was out of the country for two weeks and they gave me regular updates throughout. Tobin did accidentally eat chocolate but Yun and Lina were very responsible and communicative, they brought him to the emergency vet and I was able to speak to them and the vet for Tobin’s treatment. Tobin was totally fine and remained happy at their home till I returned. I was put at ease as they were able to care for him even with the accident, and he was very relaxed when I brought him home.
