“I highly recommend Karla for anyone’s pet care needs. She was friendly, responsive and a delight to work with. She provided daily updates on my dog’s day with pictures. I look forward to working with her again!”

“Sam was amazing! We had never left Penelope with any sitter and Sam made us feel very comfortable and confident. She sent us pictures as well which made us feel at ease. We definitely plan to have Penelope stay with Sam again in the future. Thank you, Sam!”


“Kathleen was an AMAZING DogSitter. She made sure to check in with me multiple times a day with updates and photos. She was also really thoughtful and would ask about any dietary or allergic issues that my dog might have before giving her any treats.”

“Wendy and her family did a great job taking care of sparkle. I picked her up yesterday and I do believe sparkle is still looking for Wendy and family. We would definitely have you sit for sparkle again thank you.”

“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”

“Doris was very informative with lots of daily updates and photos. Responds in a timely fashion and was very friendly. Kobe has a new friend and will use her again”

“Another great start with her favorite sitter. Rachel gave tons of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Valerie had a great stay and was super happy to reunite with Rachel and her family!”

“Michele and her family were absolutely amazing with my dog, Virgo! From start to finish, they showed so much love, patience, and care. They made him feel right at home and treated him like part of their family. Michele kept me updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. When Virgo came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend Michele and her family enough we will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Margarita and Cristian took wonderful care of my dog, Gracey, while I was away for 10 days abroad. They sent pictures and let me know how she was doing. I provided notes and suggestions about Gracey as she has anxiety and she managed to adjust really well in their environment and with the other dogs that had overlapped with Gracey’s stay. I look forward to when I need to have Gracey stay with them in the future.”

“Erica was great. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone besides friends and family and she made the process easy and comfortable. She sent updates and pictures throughout the boarding.”

“Judith was amazing with Missy! She kept me updated everyday on Missy and sent lots of pics. Her response time to my messages were quick when I inquired about Missy. And when I went to pick Missy up, Missy was clearly in love with Judith and her family. I definitely recommend her and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future”

“Kecia was so wonderful with our dog, she is very caring, patient, and loving! Throughout the few days our dog stayed with her, she cared for our dog as if she was one of her own. Kecia is very communicative, provided updates and pictures and seemed to really understand our dog's quirks and needs. We know she is good hands with Kecia. Highly recommend Kecia!”

“Vanessa and her family are the best! She made me feel very comfortable with leaving my puppy for the very first time, since birth, with her. She suggested a meet and greet so that I can see where he will be staying and he was able to sniff around so he wouldn't be in a shock when I drop him off. She's very friendly and she sent me videos and pictures throughout his entire stay with her. She loved my Blue as if he was her own pet. She has a repeat customer in me! Thank you again Vanessa!”

“Our dog Hazelnut couldn’t have been in better hands than Ariella! Ariella was very attentive to all the details, likes/dislikes, and notes of our little Hazey during our Meet & Greet and she exemplified it while watching her. She treated Hazelnut with so much love and was very responsive with her needs. She would send us pictures and notes regarding Hazelnut while we were away. We will always feel confident with Ariella watching our dog Hazelnut in the future and we highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!”


“Second time using Teraesa and I must say…her consistency will keep me coming back. Her amazing communication, constant checking in and willingness to go above and beyond says it all for me. She is a “super host” as far as Jazzy and I are concerned. My dog always comes home happier than when I left her and that says alot. Thank you Teraesa…you are officially and forever my dog-sitter!”

“Steven was absolutely amazing with Cookie! Photos were shared daily and Steven was very responsive! I could see that Cookie really enjoyed herself there I will be using his services again in the near future!”

“Lina is an incredible cat sitter! I trusted her with my two six-month-old kittens, and they had an amazing time under her care. She was responsive, kind, and it was clear she has a wealth of experience with pets. Lina sent plenty of photos and always provided quick updates and answers to any questions I had, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by administering antibiotics to one of my kittens who was recovering from an ear infection—a task she handled with ease and professionalism. I’ll be booking her again without hesitation anytime I need someone to watch my fur babies!”

“We’re so grateful for how Kitty took care of Sydney! It was such a relief knowing she’s happy and well-cared for while we were away. Kitty was very responsive and thoughtful with pictures and updates throughout Sydney’s stay with her. 5/5 stars, highly recommend Kitty!”


“She was great with Max. Max loved her, she is very kind and cooperative. She updated me with lovely pictures of him and took great care of him. I would definitely have her take care of him again.”

“This was my very first time using a dog sitter, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. My puppy, Kalii can definitely be a handful, full of energy and still learning the ropes, but Ziwei handled everything with so much patience, care, and experience. She made me feel completely at ease from the start, sending regular updates and photos that really helped ease my nerves. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend and thank you again!”

Sarah was great with my dog! She communicated really well, was able to pick up and drop off my dog and I know that he had a great time because he was so happy and wiped out when I got home from work. He even got to play with her dog! Thanks so much Sarah, we highly appreciate it and recommend her to anyone needing doggie care!
