“Nikki was wonderful! She was so caring and helpful with our dogs. Her responses were quick and helpful. She took our last minute request and picked them up when something changed in our schedule and we weren’t able to bring them ourselves. We would definitely (and hope to) book Nikki again!”
“Absolutely the best pet sitters ever!!!!!! Ever!! Jasper had the most amazing week with Eileen and her family! We will be back! They are incredible!!!💗💗💗”
“Felicia was friendly and my ole girl seemed happy to spend the weekend at her place. Definitely would recommend to others and will rebook whenever I’m in town again. Thank you!!”
“Natasha and Jonathan were excellent! This was Bennie’s first stay and I will definitely book again. Bennie quickly bonded to Natasha which made me very happy as I had only left him with someone once before. Their home is very dog-friendly and Natasha sent me regular updates during my trip. Bennie was treated so well with regular walks and snuggles. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my baby and keeping my mind at ease!”
“Wagner had a good first stay with Gienna and Maggy. Gienna was great at providing updates with photos during the stay, and we feel very comfortable leaving Wagner for an overnight stay next month.”
“David was so wonderful with my pupper. He gave me a nightly updates and a photo or two with it! He was incredibly patient with my dog, who has a bit of anxiety. I highly recommend David. I will use him again when my family goes away on a trip.”
“I almost don't want to write this review because I'd like an exclusive right to these hosts! Bob, Hyesun and their two lovely girls took in our Spencer as though he was one of their own and he truly was a part of their family during the 2 weeks we were on vacation in Europe. He got plenty of walks, playtime and care. They wrote us the best emails and sent lots of great pictures. We can thank them enough for how our little prince was treated at their house.”
“Every time we book with Ariane we know our dogs are safe a well taken care of, and we can enjoy our vacations without worry! Our dogs have a great time in her space, with her family and her two lovely dogs. I highly recommend her services and will continue to book with her going forward.”
“Paul and Megan were excellent hosts for Kenobi. From the meet and greet I could tell Kenobi felt comfortable in their presence. They were very responsive and great at communication. The frequency of updates and pictures was just right and we came back to a healthy, happy dog. Would absolutely recommend. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Ana is simply Amazing! She helped me out on a last minute boarding emergency and an extension to the booking as well. I received daily updates and pictures. Ana was wonderful with my furbaby and that in itself eased my anxiety of boarding my rescue for the first time. 10/10 would book again! Highly recommend :) Thank you so much Ana!”
“Kristen watched our Bernese for several nights and is worthy of her 5 star rating. Her communication was excellent, and I felt very comfortable leave our anxious dog with her. During our trip, I received videos and pictures of our calm and happy dog, and I was able to feel peace while away. When I picked her up, it was clear our dog was comfortable and happy with her hosts. She sat calmly while I got a review and did not appear eager to leave or anxious about her experience. Overall, I would absolutely use Kristin and appreciated her care during an unexpected trip.”
“Freddi took outstanding care of Penny!!! She has an idyllic setup for hosting and provided Penny a cozy and comfortable stay while we were out of town. We loved the photos Freddi sent every day - Penny was clearly right at home! Would definitely book again.”
“Very good communicator, on time and even sent pictures to reassure me everything was alright with my dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Zwany and Leandro took absolutely fantastic care of our two dogs Cooper and Maddie! They provided us with daily updates and lots of great photos to show how great the two pups were doing. We also received really nice report cards with a summary of their stay and wonderful Polaroid photos of each pup which are now on our fridge. We will for sure be booking with them for future pet sitting!”
“Renee and her son were amazing with my dog. They were super sweet and always sent lots of messages and photos. Renee was gentle in telling me about my baby’s day-to-day activities, how he was feeling, and how he was sleeping. I think she took better care of him than any other Rover I’ve had over the years! Next time I’m traveling, my baby will definitely be with her.”
“Always a pleasure seeing the pictures of my pooch happy while we are away. The only downside is she is sad to leave Elliot for a day or two after! Always seek Elliot first!!!”
“Andre was great with Luna ! Kept great contact with videos. She was walked for hours a day. When I picked her up she ate and crashed out. She was clearly tired. I will definitely use Andre again!!!🐆”

“Phydeau was a Prince in a castle over the weekend here while we were away. He got all sorts of special treatment and got to go to a fun summer party. He also had fun dog and cat as well as human companions. I wasn’t sure he’d want to come home. Top rating!!!”

David was great! He was very communicative and sent lots of photos. I felt very comfortable that my dog was in good hands.
Banksy absolutely loved his stay with Natasha & Jonathan! They were both amazing in ensuring he had everything he needed as well as sending lots of pictures and videos! We will definitely be using them again!
Tatiana is super nice and patient. Sushi had a great time at her place. Sent me a lot of lovely pictures and made sure to update me at least once a day. Looking forward to working with her again :)
My dog loved staying with Valeri and her family- it seemed like she didn't want to leave! Valeri was great with communication, sent regular updates/pictures and took great care of our dog. She even took her for a walk at a beach. We would definitely book with Valeri again.
Loki is a big fan of staying with Paula and playing with the other dogs when they are also there, she's been great and always flexible on drop off/pick up!
Felicia is amazing! My dog loves her place! It’s possible to see that Felicia really loves dogs and looks after them very well! Thank you very much, Felicia!
Twinkle was amazing with my dog Stella! Super friendly & reliable. She sent updates and pics which I really appreciated. My pup was happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely book with her again!
Beth is so flexible and accommodating! We had to make a last minute extension to our booking, and Beth got back to us so quickly and kindly. We picked up a very tired and happy puppy, who I know loved all the fetch she got to play in their fenced in yard throughout the stay!
Tutu had the time of his life with Laura! He felt so loved and great there he almost didn’t want to come home, Laura took Great care of Tutu and kept in touch with me vía text and sent videos along throughout his time with her. I highly recommend Laura!!!
My pug had a second perfect stay with Gienna! Got wonderful updates and pictures during his stay and he came back nice and happy.
Dawn was an excellent dog sitter! I found myself in a pinch with finding someone and she was available and communicated quickly and effectively so the plan was able to come together quickly! She took notes at our meet and greet and wanted as much info as possible to make my dog’s stay as smooth as possible! Poptart was a little hesitant at drop off but warmed up immediately to Dawn, and her warm, welcoming personality (and her bin of dog toys!). She sent tons of updates and pictures and had no issues whatsoever. Would definitely recommend Dawn to any pet parent and will book with her again!
Patricia was fabulous! She took incredible care of our pup like she was one of her own! When watching her during the heatwave Patricia made sure there was lots of fun things for her to do to cool off. She got to go swimming in the pool and played around in the splash pad. Patricia was great at keeping us updated and sent lots of photos and videos! Our pup can’t wait to go back!
Jennifer is a fantastic host! Great communication, we loved all the updates and pictures, would highly recommend.
Ana is very kind, friendly! Highly recommended. She sent pictures and video with Leo, he was very happy there. Thank you so much!
Desiree was great! Very communicative. She even picked up our dog in Cambridge. I would highly recommend you book with Desiree. Thank you again.
Jeffrey clearly knew what he was doing. When I took Maggie for a meet and greet she automatically felt comfortable with him. He demonstrates a combination of practical skills and understanding. He understands animal needs and has patience is knowledgeable about animal behavior and wellbeing. He knows how to follow a daily routine that includes feeding, walking, playing and providing clean living spaces. He provides a safe and cozy shelter and made my dog feel safe and content. I will definitely spread the word to others regarding Jeffrey's talent as an animal caregiver. I will continue to use Jeffrey in the future whenever we need him and hope he will be available.
Awesome! We had a great vacation knowing that our beloved pet was being watched by Tayla. Tayla and Thor are fabulous pet sitters!
Thank you Helin! My dog stayed with Helin for 6 nights. She was always online and fast to response my messages. Every day, Helin, made sure to send me photos of Charlie. I picked up my dog Charlie in a healthy condition. I recommend her services.
