“Leaving my dog with someone new for the first time was something I was incredibly nervous about, but Saldin made me feel comfortable from our very first interaction. As a dog mom, I wanted someone who would care for my baby the way I do, and she exceeded every expectation. She cared for my dog for four days and kept me updated the entire time. She sent so many pictures and videos, along with regular updates about my dog's behavior, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seeing videos of my dog giving her kisses and having such a great time reassured me that my pup felt safe, happy, and loved. One thing that really stood out to me is how genuinely caring Saldin is. When she talks about the dogs she's cared for, she refers to each one by their name instead of just saying "the dog." She remembers them and treats each one as her own family which speaks volumes about how much she truly loves and connects with the pets in her care. She also made sure my dog got plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. Saldin is incredibly sweet, communicative, thoughtful, and reassuring. I never had to wonder how my baby was doing because she always kept me informed. I can't recommend Saldin enough! If you're looking for someone who will treat your baby like family and give you complete peace of mind while you're away, she's the one!!!!”
“Danielle and Andres were amazing watching Nova for the week. They were communicative, provided daily updates, and very responsible. They were also flexible and accommodating when I had to adjust the dates. Would highly recommend, and looking forward to having them watch Nova in the future.”
“Annett was fantastic! My dog was well cared for and happy when we returned. Annette was communicative, understanding, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend!”
“Reka and her family took such wonderful and loving care of my dog Rafa, who was clearly very happy with them for the entire time he was with them. I am so grateful to them and couldn’t recommend Reka more.”
“Clara’s second stay with Darlene went really well. Clara was excited to be back and that told me Darlene is a person Clara likes and trusts. I received lots of updates and photos. We will be back soon.”
“Melanie was an absolute pleasure to work with. It was clear she cared for Archie as if she were her own. She kept me updated throughout her stay and proactively sent lots of photos (which I loved!), so I never had to wonder how she was doing. It was also obvious that Archie truly enjoyed staying with her. I highly recommend Melanie — and I know Archie gives her two paws up!”
“Hahillah was great with Brad and sent me updates and photos throughout his stay! She was also very accommodating to my last minute booking request. I will definitely book with her again if she will have Brad :)”
“Rob is an AMAZING dog sitter!!! Im generally very nervous about leaving my dachshund, Dante, with a new dog sitter as Dante is shy, lazy, and isnt always friendly with strangers. But Rob was so kind, and so understanding that I felt very at ease leaving him with Rob. I could tell immediately that Dante really liked him, and when I left I was never concerned about Dante being OK as I knew he was. Rob sent me constant videos and photos of Dante as well as messages letting me know he was OK and sharing info about Dantes day. I was SO appreciative of these messages because they confirmed to me that Dante was having a great time and that I could relax while away! I will 100% be working with Rob again! He is a phenomenal, kind, and experienced dog sitter! I have absolutely nothing but kind words to say about Rob and I am so grateful for him taking care of Dante the way he did!”
“Eva was kind, flexible, and communicative. She clearly loves dogs and took good care of Wallace. But appreciated her accommodating my schedule around the busy holidays.”
“Excellent sitter!! Would use her again and again. She was so attentive to my dog, treated him like her own. She gave him his medications on time every day! She was able to take my dog very last minute too.”
“Luzia and Laura were so great with my shih tzu Ruthie! She got all the cuddles she needed and I got all the picture updates I could have asked for. Will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Pamela has been taking care of Ginger for over 4 years maybe 5 at this point. Honestly we can’t keep track because Pamela feels like an extension of our little village. She takes exceptional care of our sweet but spicy chihuahua Ginger. She is understanding and patient with Ginger’s nerves and guarding behavior. She sends a ton of photos and is always extremely communicative even when we can’t respond!”
“Rima was so wonderful with Clem! She was so kind and thoughtful from the meet and greet to pickup. Rima sent lots of photos during my extended trip away and felt at ease knowing Clem was in good care. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of dog walking of boarding.”
“Couldn't have had such an awesome Valentine's Day with my boyfriend if not for Devon! Thank you for being available on times when most sitters aren't.”
“Thank you do much Melanie! You leot me updater everyday in regards to my sweet Milo and also sent me pictures of him. You took such great care of him and I will definitely be needing you again for December, I hope you’re available for my sweet boy! Thank you again☺️☺️”
“I had a last-minute work trip come up and Alanis and Marco were able to step in without any hassle. They were really flexible and made everything easy on my end. I got consistent updates while I was away, which helped a lot since I hate being out of the loop with my dog. This is my second time booking with them and both experiences have been smooth and reliable. I’d definitely book again!”
“Absolutely fantastic sitter! We received round-the-clock updates with photos of our Mitch via our cell. It made for a much more relaxing vacation and definitely showed us that our dog was in good hands!”

We can't say enough good things about Stephanie! Bowen stayed with her this weekend and had an amazing time. He got tons of social time and Stephanie kept us in the loop with several check-ins and photos. The best sign of all was when we picked him up, Bowen turned around and went back to Stephanie to say goodbye! It was adorable and told us everything we needed to know about how much he enjoyed his stay. We'll definitely be booking with Stephanie again. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!
Will took such great care of Perla! Communication was always prompt and responsive, and I really appreciated the regular photo and video updates. It gave me peace of mind knowing Perla was in such good hands. I’d absolutely recommend Will and would happily book again!
Amanda was absolutely wonderful! From start to finish, she made the whole experience so easy and gave us one less thing to worry about while we were away. She was great with communication, always keeping us updated with messages and photos of Grizzly, which really meant a lot to us. What I appreciated most was how understanding and accommodating she was with our hectic schedule, especially when we had to deal with flight delays. She was incredibly flexible and made a stressful travel situation that much easier. It’s never easy leaving your dog behind, but knowing Grizzly was in good hands gave us real peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our family vacation. We’re truly grateful for Amanda’s kindness, patience, and care. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Grizzly again. Highly recommend!
Doosung was an excellent dog sitter! He gave plenty of communication and photo updates while my dog was boarding with him, and took my dog on walks or trips to the dog park every day. Doosung's frequent and regular communication was very comforting, and I could tell he really cares.
It seems like Becky had a great time with Devon and Devin! I appreciated how flexible they were with the drop off and pick up time. Becky always looked very comfortable and at ease in all of the photos that were shared with me. Will definitely use them again in the future when I need a sitter!
Lucy was an amazing hostess for my cat, Suki. Despite Suki being in full princess mode during her stay they were able to accommodate her to her catisfaction, and my girl had nothing but good meows to say. Lucy communicated very thoroughly and professionally throughout the booking process and the stay with many updates along the way. I highly recommend her!
Steven is officially our puppy’s favorite sitter! 🐶❤️ He took such amazing care of Burrito over the weekend, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Burrito was so happy, comfortable, and well looked after throughout his stay, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Steven was so thoughtful and attentive, and we really appreciated the regular updates and adorable pictures he sent us. It was lovely to see Burrito having such a great time and getting so much love and attention! We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our little one. It’s not always easy leaving your puppy with someone else, but Steven made the whole experience stress-free and gave us complete peace of mind. We would absolutely book with him again. Thank you so much, Steven, for taking such great care of our Burrito! 🐾💕
