“Dzeni and Kathy were great with Susie Q. They sent us several pictures and messages to let us know how things were going. They are very friendly and great with dogs. I would certainly recommend them.”



“I’m so grateful that Debra was able to take care of my pup while I went out of town for a few days! I received updates and photos of my girl having so much fun running around in the yard and playing. It was such a relief knowing she was being loved and cared for as if she was Debra’s own! Luna will definitely be back!”


“If only I could rate 20+ stars this is the sitter that deserves it. We are in complete thankfulness for Cece. She took care of Nico as if he was her own. I was able to travel and enjoy my 11 day vacation feeling at peace, knowing my baby was being extremely well treated; she was a huge part of me being able to enjoy my vacation. Cece send me videos and pics daily, she communicated anything regarding Nico. She goes above and beyond. I am so happy we found her. We love her and are extremely happy with the services. Will definitely book again without any hesitation. Thank you❤️”


“They took such good care of my dog! From the very beginning, they were responsive and professional. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that they truly care about the animals they look after. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. They were also incredibly friendly and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend booking with them if you’re looking for someone reliable and loving to care for your pet. I’ll definitely be using their services again!”


“If you want to go away and know that your dog is in a loving and responsible home, leave them with Estefany. Our dogs were there for 4 days and we got pictures and an update every day. Estefany was very helpful and accommodating and you can tell that she loves what she does. We highly recommend her.”


“Recomiendo 100% a Mariana, tiene un excelente acondicionamiento para los perritos, sentí confianza desde el primer momento, nos mantenía informados de cómo estaba mi mascota por medio de fotos. Si necesitan un lugar donde dejar a sus mascotas no duden en hacerlo con mariana.”


“1st time leaving our dogs and we couldn’t have picked a better place to board our dogs. We were worried about our older dog who doesn’t get along with all dogs and gets extremely anxious with change but Patricia knew how to properly attend to his needs. Plus, they constantly sent us updates (pictures and videos) even through the holidays which we appreciated and helped us feel at ease. We definitely will book again with Patricia.”


“Chi Chi had the best time!!! She seemed so happy when we picked her up! We appreciate Windell so much! He even got her toys and he took her on a bunch of walks. We will definitely use him in the future whenever we need to!”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Laura! She took care of my pup for a full week while I was on vacation, and she was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met, I could tell she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. Throughout the week, she kept me updated with regular messages and adorable pictures of my dog, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Laura went above and beyond—not just feeding and walking, but giving my dog plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I came home to a happy pup! It’s clear she treated my dog like one of her own. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”



“Thank you, Shawn, for reaching out and taking the time to get to know my dog over the phone before boarding him over the weekend. I appreciate your concern for his dietary and medical needs and bedtime routine. Thank you!”

She sent me many updates and even introduced Luna to some new pup friends and tricks ! I loveeee Joycemar and will definitely be booking ONLY HER 🫶🏽 thank you again for an amazing stay for Luna”


“Best dog sitter ever. Our fur baby loves 💕Ms. Sharii and all the love 💗and attention she receives. She loves her daily walks and naps too. Tiffany is looking forward to seeing her again in October, if not sooner 🥰”


“Thank you again for taking in Griffin on a last-minute request. It was awesome to receive daily pictures and it was the first time from any sitter receiving video of my dog. It was funny watching him play fetch with a new fur buddy. Thank you again, Ashley! Definitely recommend and will use again in the future.”


“She's amazing and very sweet! I was worried leaving my cat to go out of town because I never did that but she's very reassuring when it comes to it! My cat took his time to get used to her and her home and she was very patient with the way my cat reacted to things. She also sends daily updates for you and send you a lot of pictures which I definitely love! 100000000% would book with her again and would recommend other pawrents to do so!”



“Marcus, is great at responding my texts right away. He sent me photos of my dog while I was away, which was nice. Rey came back home tired from playing with the other dogs. I am sure he had a great time :)”


“Yori took amazing care of my fur baby. I loved that he felt right at home with her. She updated me & made sure prince was comfortable & loved. We will definitely be back! Thanks again. 🐾 💕”
