“My dog Snowie (a husky) has been coming here for daycare and boarding for months now. We love the facility-- it's clean, bright, and very well organized. The video feeds are great when we want to check on Snowie, and they also send us pictures of his stay.”


2. Baining K.

“Baining is an amazing sitter. She provided me tons of photos (I am making my Toffee an album!). Toffee went home happy! Definitely will be back with her.”


3. Chiaki S.

“I ended up booking Chiaki twice because she’s that great. My fur baby looked excited to see her in the morning when dropping off and she also made friends with Chiakis pups. And mind you my dog is afraid of other dogs lol. It was a great experience and if we ever need another sister, we will be back!”

7. Natasha M.
“Natasha regularly dog sits my 9-year-old cairn terrier/maltese mix. I always rest easy on vacation knowing that he is in good hands. She takes great care of him despite his persnickety personality. I know he gets regular walks and that she can be counted on to feed him properly. She also is great at communicating, consistently checking in with photos and reports on how he is doing. I will be bringing him back to her next time I need a pet sitter.”

About: I am very friendly and very responsive to dogs. I can take care of them like my children. I feel them and love to be them. I’m currently working part time and have a lot of time to take care of dogs. I love walking and playing with them. It’s me. I can come to your home or you can bring you pet to my home. I love to take care of dogs. My family is so friendly and welcoming to the pets.

“This is the second time we have used Hector to care for our fur babies. As always he was so kind and loving. Above all he was very communicative and kept us in the loop throughout their entire stay. I love being updated on their walks and the “ and now we r napping and watching the news” messages. Thank you again hector. We appreciate you :)”


11. Ruby M.
“Ruby has watched my dog time and time again for the last 5+ years and there is no one else I’d trust with my dog. She goes above and beyond, cares about making sure my dog is always happy, and my dog always comes back to me tired and happier than ever. Best dog sitter ever!!”

14. Jeanne V.

“BOOK WITH JEANNE!! Jeanne was absolutely amazing with our pups, Louis and Arlo! She went above and beyond to keep them happy with all kinds of enrichment toys, plenty of walks, and tons of playtime with her and her other doggies. When we picked them up, they were totally tuckered out, which was perfect since we were exhausted from the Disney parks! She lives near the parks which is super convenient—only minutes from most hotels near the parks, which made drop-off and pick-up so easy. Jeanne kept us in the loop the whole time with great updates and lots of photos/videos! The care she gave was top-notch. Thank you so much, Jeanne, for taking such amazing care of our babies!”


15. Rona J.
“Rona is an angel! My puppy Piko had a great time spending a few days with her. Will 10/10 recommend going to her! Overall amazing!”


16. Monica D.


“Our Milo had the greatest time and was so happy with Monica and Mammoth ❤️ we loved the updates and feel confident that he will be happy at daycare or boarding in the future :)”


17. Vy P.
“If you’re looking for someone who’s not only a total dog lover but who also treats every pup like family, then look no further. Seriously, Vy might actually love dogs more than people. I’ve seen her bond with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments—whether it’s a tiny, fluffy pup or a giant, drooling furball, she’s got a way of making them feel right at home. Her own dog, Willow, is practically royalty in her eyes (and rightly so), so you can trust that your furry friend will be treated like a VIP while you’re away. Plus, she’s always up for an adventure, whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or just a cozy cuddle on the couch. You can rest easy knowing your dog will be in loving, capable hands. If dogs could write reviews, I’m pretty sure they’d all give her five stars. I know my dog, Kylo, would.”


18. Rebekah S.
“Rebekah has an incredible way with dogs, and it’s clear she genuinely loves and cares for them. My sassy Border Collie, who is very selective about the humans she trusts, absolutely adores her. It’s as if she can sense Rebekah’s bubbly energy and kindness. Rebekah has cared for my pup many times, and I always feel completely at ease leaving her in such capable hands. She’s attentive to my dog’s unique personality quirks, ensures her walks are enjoyable, and even keeps up with her training while I’m away. I wholeheartedly trust and recommend Rebekah as a sitter and walker—she’s fantastic!”


19. Sandy S.

“Sandy did a great job sitting my dog. She was considerate of my dog's needs and kept in good communication with me. My dog had a lot of fun in her care.”


20. Ann Y.

“What I love about Ann, is that she understands how to take care of who she dog sits. My dog is very anxious around other ppl and dogs, besides her cousins. It may take quite a lot more visits with whom she trusts and likes the most. You cared for my girl and I appreciate your attention to her. That means the most to me that she feels comfortable and loved by you. I cannot thank you enough Ann. You are the best sitter I have ever met. I recommend you to anyone who is looking in the area for a great sitter. The way the dogs are left with you is the exact same way they come home. Just happy!!!!”


21. Meena & Al A.

“Meena took great care of Petey and made him feel at home for his 2nd visit. Appreciated the flexibility with times and understanding of his anxiousness.”
