Iliana is incredible. Amazing. Professional. I truly cannot say enough about how wonderful she was with my dog, Ophie. Iliana sent updates and photos every single day while I was away and I could not be happier with mine and Ophie’s experience! We will most definitely be contacting Iliana again as I feel Ophie is part of her family now. I am over the moon with how it all went!!!! She. Is. The. Best. ☺️❤️

Binta is an all-star and a consummate professional! My dog loved her right away. Binta made sure my dog stayed on a comforting routine, gave her lots of attention, made sure she got a lot of outdoor time and exercise, etc. Binta’s updates were extremely detailed and featured lots of cute pictures. Her place is cozy, clean, and organized, making it an ideal home away from home for your furry loved one. We will definitely call on Binta again the next time we travel.

Ryan was a phenomenal sitter! He was quick to accept my last minute request. He was attentive and followed all my instructions while sending video and picture updates at my preferred cadence! Ryan is great with dogs and even offered a few toys and treats of his own while checking with me first to see if ok. Ryan was an amazing sitter and I plan to use him again!

Imari was amazing! She accommodated a last-minute schedule change and took great care of my dog Pearl, even though it was their first time together. I loved all the photos and updates, and my baby got plenty of exercise. She came home happy and tired. I couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend.

Sayarlin was soo accommodating while watching my dog Dream! Even when I had to extend the pick up dates she was still willing to help out as best as she could. She even took Dream to the park to play which i'm sure she enjoyed. I will definitely use her to watch Dream in the future.

Our energetic goldendoodle, Bailey, has stayed with Symone very happily for day visits and several overnights, but this was our first long stay and we couldn't be happier. Symone kept us up to date with daily pictures and reports, which were very reassuring. We see how happy Bailey is when we get to Symone's door, which says it all. She can't wait to see her! Thank you, Symone, for looking after Bailey so well for us! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

5 STARS!!!! Victor is a loving and talented pet person. He saved me in a last minute travel situation! I have a big & powerful dog who is doing her best to be good & calm, but does not always nail it! He was AMAZING with her!! I could tell that she felt totally comfortable and loved the whole 2 weeks I was gone. He walked her a lot and was very understanding about her special attributes & need to destroy toys. She slept in bed with him & was allowed on the couch, which was really comforting for her. I booked him the day before I left town and he was professional, pleasant & flexible with timing. He obviously has a great connection with animals & is an overall lovely person to communicate with on the daily (he sent pics & videos everyday). This is the first time I have picked her up after being away that she is genuinely happy & chill. Def book him!! I have recommended him to my whole family & all of my loved ones who own dogs. He lives on a quiet street with really wide sidewalks, good if your dog has dog reactivity. Perfect experience from start to finish.

Noelle is the absolute sweetest person ever. Me and my bf left our 9 month old pitbull/beagle mix Milo with her for 3 nights 4 days. From the moment we dropped him off she was calm, kind, very knowledgeable, and knew how to handle Milo right away since he still has a ways to go with socialization. She came up with a game plan instantly so Milo and the other pups could still play but also have relaxation breaks, she kept me posted, sent me pics and updates my entire trip. We have a trip planned for Italy in July and we will 100% be using noelle again !!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough good things about our dog sitter. She watched my dog for a full week and took excellent care of him. My dog is elderly and has a luxating patella in his back knee, and she was very attentive to his needs and limitations. She handled him carefully, made sure he was comfortable, and truly paid attention to his health. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked him up, he was happy, calm, and clearly very well taken care of. On top of that, she even washed him the day before pickup, so he came home freshly cleaned, which was such a thoughtful touch. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, loving dog sitter.

Anupa was so great with my dog Zelda. We had a 4 day camping trip and even though cell service wasn’t always reliable for us, Anupa still sent picture updates of my sweet girl. She always looked like she was having such a great time with Anupa. She was also really accommodating about times for us to drop off/ pick up Zelda. I’m really appreciative of that. Overall it was a great experience and if ever I need to go out of town again I’m coming right back to Anupa. Highly, highly recommend!
