“I highly recommend this dog sitter! They were incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. They also have a fantastic space for dogs; my pup was in absolutely great spirits when I picked them up. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Cici had a wonderful time staying with Aleksei and Galina. They provided us with photos and videos, which was fantastic. They also took her on walks that she thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you!”
“Ethan is wonderful at taking care of our dog. He has a large backyard that her and his dog, Astro, play in. Also, Ethan is really good with communication and updates.”
“Sure! Here's a simple review you could leave: We boarded our dog TJ with Karen and Willie and had a great experience. He was well taken care of and seemed really happy when we picked him up. He especially enjoyed playing with Cookie... they became fast friends! Definitely recommend.”
“Audrina was absolutely amazing and part of me wants to gatekeep her so she'd be available to take care of Yoshi whenever needed! Throughout the boarding, Audrina remained highly professional and experienced with all types of dogs. This was my first time using Rover so I was extremely nervous. I expressed my concerns with Yoshi being a senior, reactive dog, but Audrina and Donny eased all of my worries. We set up a meet and greet where they both took the time to ask questions about Yoshi's daily routine, habits, health, and personality. She also sent over a Google form to ensure nothing was forgotten about Yoshi's needs! Audrina went above and beyond - sending daily updates as well as cute pictures/videos the entirety of the stay. I could immediately tell that Audrina and Donny were giving Yoshi so much love and Yoshi looked extremely comfortable with them. He was playful, happy, and anxious-free! What stood out to me the most was that Audrina took the time to train Yoshi and even give him stimulating activities on the rainy days! I truly don't think I could have found a better person to take care of Yoshi!”
“Smitha was amazing with Roo! She can be a very anxious pup, so Smitha even scheduled a meetup time beforehand to get Roo introduced. This was our first time hiring a sitter that wasn’t a family member/friend, so even we were nervous, but she made Roo feel very comfortable. When we went to pick her up, she even gave Smitha a hug goodbye! I could tell she enjoyed her time there”
“Yunxi is great and took great care of my dog. Her house is in a very safe neighborhood with a park to walk my dog everyday. She ensured she took my dog out multiple times a day for walking and potty, and made sure he was well fed!”
About: With two years of experience caring for my own Shiba Inu and a history of dog-sitting for friends, I am confident in my ability to provide excellent pet care. I have hands-on experience with tasks like giving medicine, bathing, and brushing (for those dogs who are not against it) I'm available to care for your fur baby during the day on weekdays. My schedule is flexible and can accommodate daytime needs. I also take last minute booking. I have a private, fenced patio in my apartment that's a great space for your pet to enjoy some fresh air safely. During our walks, I'll send you updates with a detailed summary, so you'll know exactly how your furry friend is doing and what we did.
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“Michael was very easy going and it’s apparent that he loves caring for the dogs. ZuZu has a great stay at his place. He took walks every day with ZuZu and played with her. I’m confident that we will use his care again in the future.”
“Karen is amazing. Our girl Sasha was very well cared for during her stay with Karen. I never had to worry or wonder how she was doing. Karen sent us daily updates, and I knew Sasha was in excellent hands. We just had our second stay with Karen. The second time I brought Sasha, she walked right into her house. Something she has never done. Usually, she needs a lot of coaxing :) This tells you all you need to know. Karen is truly kind and caring, and Astro is the sweetest dog ever.”
“Kenny cared for my dog for a week while I traveled. Kenny is excellent at keeping you updated all day with words and pictures!! He did everything I asked and happily adjusted halfway through the week when I asked that my dog get new medication twice a day. Kenny is very kind and caring, and if I didn’t know better I would think he didn’t have a family and job, but that he just spent every minute with my dog. She’s happy and I’m happy. 😊😊😊😊”
“I am so happy that I choose Li for my dog Aggie. I am definitely going to choose her again. My dog can be anxious and nervous around new humans and other dogs. Li handled Aggie so well and sent us regular updates with pictures and videos. Thanks Li 😊💕”
“Our kitty Jasmine had a most wonderful stay with Yixin! The photos and little movies had shown that Jasmine had settled in to Yixin's nice home as she found several cozy places to sleep end enjoy windows. This was all so amazing because Jasmine is a "scaredy-cat" and tends to hide from the world and new people. Yixin was able to make friends with Jasmine very quickly. Jasmine ate and drank well and Yixin attended to all of Jasmine's special needs. Indeed, our girly cat was loved and cherished at Yixin's "kitty vacation resort". We have found a Gem of a kitty care taker whilst we are on travel. Thank you so much Yixin for you special love you gave Jasmine. She was a happy kitty when she return home.”
“Taylor is an amazing person and has provided loving and top notch care for our pup. Our boy is typically shy but Taylor has bonded with him more than any other person has been able to. She knows just how to interact with and care for our Mr Bean. Being with Taylor is like a home away from home for him.”
“Jess stayed with Maria. She had a good time with her. Maria shared how she was and what she did everyday. She is very responsive and flexible. I would use here next time again!”
“Iryna was great! She was very responsive, she was flexible with the meet and greet, pickup, and dropoff timing, and parking was easy. Tahini is shy but warmed up to her quite quickly and loved exploring her apartment, where he had plenty of space to run around. We didn’t have much experience introducing him to other dogs, and she helped him make friends in controlled settings, including at the dog park for small dogs across the street. We loved the daily photos, and the daily videos always showed him happy and wagging his tail. He came home happy and healthy.”
“This is the first time we've left our dogs with a sitter. While their behavior was far from perfect, Dawn was the absolute best sitter that we could ask for! She sent amazing videos/pictures to accompany her frequent updates. I couldn't recommend Dawn more highly, and I'm not sure how I can ever entrust my dog's care to anyone else!”

Amazing sitter! She kept us updated with photos and videos, and was already waiting outside for us with our puppy and everything all packed and cleaned when we arrived which made for a smooth and efficient pickup. So thoughtful and nice. I would definitely book again!
I highly recommend this dog sitter! They were incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. They also have a fantastic space for dogs; my pup was in absolutely great spirits when I picked them up. I will definitely be booking with them again!
I am writing to provide my feedback for Xi. She has been taking wonderful care of Oreo and making sure that Oreo is eating and pooping regularly. She also takes Oreo for walks and ensures all needs are met. Xi keeps me updated consistently and sends videos, which provides a great sense of relief for me. Thank you so much Xi
Maria watched my two geriatric dogs while I attended a wedding, and I couldn't have been more grateful for her care. Our regular sitter was unavailable, and I was understandably hesitant to leave my girls because of their health issues…especially my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, who is in heart failure and requires extra attention. Maria was incredibly reassuring, knowledgeable, and willing to take on the additional care they needed. Throughout my trip, I felt much less stressed knowing they were in such capable hands. When they returned home, both of my girls were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciate everything Maria did to make this experience a positive one, and I would not hesitate to trust her with my dogs again. Highly recommend!
Sammi was so great with our senior dog, I always feel a little uneasy when I leave my dog with a new sitter but as soon as I met Sammie I knew she’d be perfect. She sent daily updates and pictures which was so appreciated, I could tell our little Pickles was so happy staying there and was right at home. I would definitely use Sammie again!!
Aleksei and Galina were amazing with Finn. We are so thankful they went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable to leave him in their care while we needed to travel shortly after he had surgery. Finny looked so happy in all of the photos and videos they sent and I felt informed on his wellbeing during his entire stay. I would definitely recommend Aleksei and Galina to petsit for anyone. It's clear they love dogs and will make any pet feel welcome.
We had a wonderful experience! Jean took great care of my dog Lucky, and I could tell Lucky really enjoyed her stay. She was kind, responsible, and attentive, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Lucky also got along really well with Mia, and it was so sweet to know they became friends. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!
We are extremely happy that we found Irina. Our dog Max quickly grew very attached to her and clearly feels safe and comfortable in her care. She has stayed with hi on several occasions, including living in our home for a few 2-weeks periods while we were away on vacation. Throughout this time, Max was calm, happy, and very well looked after. Irina took excellent care of him and treated him with genuine warmth and attention. She also kept us regularly updated with photos and videos, which gave us peach of mind. We wholeheartedly recommend Irina as a trustworthy, caring and highly responsible dog sitter. She is very polite, easy to communicate with, and truly devoted to the animals she looks after.
Mai took wonderful care of my dog over a long weekend, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My dog can be a bit wary of strangers, but she seemed to be at ease with her the entire time. Mai made her feel comfortable and safe. We’ll definitely be booking with Mai again in a August. Highly recommend!
Tanvi went above and beyond taking care of my dog Boomer during my wedding weekend. Boomer has anxiety and takes Prozac for it (which Tanvi gave to him each day) so I've never had anyone besides family watch him. It was clear Tanvi took great care of him, helped him quickly relax, made sure he ate food which I was worried he wouldn't do, walked him and sent regular updates which helped my anxiety of him being away. I hope to use Tanvi again to watch Boomer and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog boarder!
