“Berkeley loves staying with Brooke and her family, they always take the best care of her and keep us in the loop on how she’s doing with lots of pictures!”
“Eric was the best. I could tell by the picture and video updates that our dogs were loving the sleep over. We will definitely keep using Eric in the future, in fact we have already booked our next boarding event. I cant thank Eric enough for making it easier to leave our pups and have some kid free adventures.”
“Here’s a polished review for Kelly: Kelly was an amazing dog sitter! She was reliable, kept me updated throughout the day, and showed so much kindness and playfulness with my puppy, Reign. It was clear she genuinely cared and made sure Reign was happy and comfortable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Katherine is the BEST! She accommodated our last minute booking and our pooch LOVED it there! Plenty of love and playtime in a beautiful home with a safe, secure large grassy yard.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the last several years. I’m happy to take care of and get to know any kind of pet!! I’m in Physician Assistant school currently on clinical rotations. My schedule changes a bit week to week but there is plenty of time for me to take care of your furbabies. I’m happy to walk, let dogs out, and feed pets before and after work on days I go to clinic. On days I’m not working I’d be able to spend even more time with your pets, playing with them and keeping them company in addition to taking care of them! Just let me know what will make you most comfortable in terms of caring for your pets- walks on a leash, going out in the yard with them, feeding/treat schedules, medication schedules, etc. I’m happy to maintain your pets routine.
“Veronica took wonderful care of our pup! She was so loved on and cared for the whole time. She was also an excellent communicator and gave updates and pics frequently. Highly recommend her!”
“I knew my dog was in great hands when I left him with Sai. He's deeply compassionate and understanding, and goes beyond the basics of feeding and walking; he dedicates time to prioritize and engage with each dog, ensuring they feel loved and comfortable and their needs are met. I received regular updates and photos, which reassured me that my dog was also having a great time! I highly recommend Sai for anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and reliable caregiver for their dogs, and I'm looking forward to rebooking him again soon!”
“Tejaswini was the consummate professional Dog Sitter & Host for my Pup who has Special Needs due to Cancer requiring Apollo's right rear leg to be Amputated. They showed Extreme Empathy and Compassion while taking such amazing care of Apollo who had an unfortunate Stomach Issues at the time. They even ordered Anti-Diarrhea medication and watched my Pup hourly while sending pics to constantly keep me updated so I was very relieved to have Apollo being cared for so well as he was treated as part of their Family! They Truly Care about Your Pup as they even checked up on how Apollo was doing the day after I had picked him up as their sincerity and kindheartedness is absolutely refreshing! I will be taking Apollo there for all my work trips going forward!”
“Amazing caregiver! Lou took wonderful care of our 2 dogs while we were visiting Arizona. They enjoyed their time with him and we felt secure that they were safe and sound with him. Lou was communicative and went the extra mile, asking us if we wanted him to feed them before we arrived for pick up. Truly an excellent experience, our family highly recommends Lou to care for your family too!”

Alyssa was wonderful with my dog Lena. I recently adopted Lena and Alyssa worked with her on her behavior and training. She treated Lena like part of the family and sent daily pictures and updates. She responded quickly to my questions and check ins. Alyssa and her dogs went on daily walks with Lena and she took great care of Lena. Alyssa is awesome!!
Bill is incredible! We also grateful that we found him! He took such excellent care of our dog, giving her lots of love, all the daily exercise our active girl desires and managing her picky eating habits. Payton can be anxious around new people however Bill had a way of making her feel instantly comfortable and at ease! He truly treats your dog as if it is his own! I would 100% recommend him!
My husband and I had to find a baby sitter for a day because we had a day-long event and wanted our pups taken care of since we would be out for so long. I found Huaqing and her profile checked all of our boxes. We have a 3 year old Pomeranian and a 4 month old Rottweiler, and she took the greatest care of them! She sent us so many pictures throughout the day of their walk breaks and them playing, and it gave me such relief to know our babies were having a great time! When we picked them up they slept right away because I know they had a blast and saw/ sniffed so many new things. Huaqing even packed us a bag of treats and a kind note talking about her day with the doggies. I would recommend her to anyone because I could tell she really does care about pets and their well- being. Thank you again a million time Huaqing!!
