“Our 11 month old Corgi puppy love her stay there. It was our first time to leave our dog to others. Edwin and Anne were wonderful. They were very nice and very dog loving. The place is perfect for our dog and other dogs. Very pleasant, clean and secure. After we drop off our puppy, Edwin and Anne send us photos from time to time and our dog was very happy to play with other dogs. Nice of them to send us photos and keep us up to date. We pickup our dog and she is very relax and happy. Great experience so we already rebook for few days again. We found our go-to people whenever we need boarding services. Thank you Edwin and Anne.

“Laura is by far the absolute best surrogate mawma a doggie could ask for. I was a nervous Nelly having to leave my Zeusie with anyone other than family. As soon as I met Laura I could feel how passionate and caring she was and she immediately eased my anxiety. I just knew Zeus would receive top notch care. Zeus can be a bit full of himself and thinks he’s the most important. She just “gets” him and then lets him be him. She kept me updated with pics and texts and I knew exactly how he was doing during his stay. If Zeus could speak human I know that he would tell me that he had lots of fun and loves Laura. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Laura will be able to host my lil Zeusie anytime he needs a vacay. I can’t thank her enough and truly appreciate her knowledge, understanding, and care she gives.”

“It will be hard to leave our pup with anyone else! They were the perfect family to take care of our Drew! Always sent updates, videos, and pictures. We felt really safe with Drew in their care!”

“Rachel and Preston sent daily videos/pics and updates and took great care of Moki. He even received a Christmas plushie during his stay over the holidays. Thank you!!”

“Bernadette was the best. She was so attentive, careful and caring towards my 16yo bella. She provided daily updates and my dog kept her weight while I was away. Which let me know she was really comfortable in Bernadettes home and ate all her food. Bella will visiting her again soon :)”
“Great experience. Great place. My dog seemed happy and playful after leaving there. I am sure he had a good time. I received pictures throughout the day of him and what he was doing.”

“Kevin's and his family did such an awesome job with meeting, boarding, walking and caring for Charlie! He really enjoyed being there too. Great experience for all involved. Would definitely use him in the future!”

“Great experience! My dogs 15 now & needs special care and Skylar took care of all her needs. She was very quick with communication & would send pics of Bella throughout our trip. She was also close to my neighborhood which was a bonus for me. Highly recommend.”
“Ilona took great care of my two senior Labs. One has to take multiple medications throughout the day and Ilona was willing to take on the added work. She sent pics most everyday of the dogs looking relaxed and happy. thanks Ilona - great job!”

“Fantastic sitter! She was so caring and thoughtful, and she kept me updated with plenty of cute pictures. I always felt my dog was in great hands. I’d happily book with her again.”

“This is our second time leaving Biscuit with Susana, and it was a wonderful experience again! She takes great care of him and sends pictures and videos throughout the day, which is so appreciated. We will definitely leave Biscuit with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”


“Candy is loving, warm and most of all very professional on how she treats your family member. I especially liked the fact that she has a meet and greet before the stay and gave me great hints on what to bring from home to make it easier for my doggie kid. You can really enjoy your vacation when your kid is at Candy's home. ”

“Anhdao was amazing and provided constant updates! She sent a ton of pictures which was very comforting and put me at ease. 10/10 recommend and will rebook in the future!”

“Earl and Katherine took such good care of our puppy Norah. They checked in frequently and sent us pictures daily. It was obvious from the pictures that Norah enjoyed her stay with them. We will definitely be using them again in the future.”

“Our girl had a WONDERFUL time at Amorn and Adam’s home! This was the most at peace I’ve felt while leaving my dog with a sitter. Their communication was amazing and the photos & videos said it all. She was so happy!”

“Armando was very quick to respond and did a great job with our puppy Haku! We could tell Haku had a great time and was very calm and comfortable in Armando’s presence. Armando’s yard is also very well kept and spacious. We will definitely book again!”

Sylmar dog parents share their Rover experiences
I was sent pictures through out Aces stay and it’s safe to say he looked very comfortable. Typically if he’s scared and feeling anxious he’s not very active but he was playing with the ball and exploring the new grass areas at his stay. Thank you so much! We will be back.

Milo stayed with Basilio for more than a week and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trusted dog boarding and sitter. He communicates well and gives update to us about our dog. Milo had a little anxiety issue and he was prompt enough to help him get through it. We would definitely look for him again in the future. Thank you for making Milo feel at home and well taken care of.

Robert was a life saver to our family vacation. We booked with Robert while driving from the Bay Area to Southern California and he responded within minutes. Robert kept us updated daily with either pictures and/or videos of Roxy hanging out with other doggies that Robert boards. Roxy came home a happy and tired pup. We would definitely recommend Robert for your boarding needs in the Southern California area.

Ivy took wonderful care of Willow last weekend. She was very responsive to all my questions and always replied quickly, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated the 2–3 photo updates each day — it meant a lot to see Willow comfortable and happy. I truly felt that Willow was safe and well cared for in their home. Thank you, Ivy, for treating her like family. 💛
