1. Kathy K.
“Kathy was everything we could have hoped for in a dog-sitter - attentive, experienced, patient, reliable. Our pooch has physical disabilities which require additional time and effort. Kathy rose to the occasion with both professional and gentle acumen. Her work as a nurse certainly added to her skills. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave our fur baby with her and to whole-heartedly recommend her to all.”
2. Susan P.
“Susan was an awesome sitter for my dog. My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her for a couple of days. She kept us updated throughout the day with pics and conversation. We’re so happy to have found her.”
3. Tara & Peter O.
“Once again, Tara and Peter were super helpful accommodating Duke despite two other furry guests already scheduled for boarding. We received daily photos and couple of video updates. Duke loves the place since it is a fenced backyard where he leisurely strolls and plays. The host dog, Willow, is also very welcoming. This was our third time and we will definitely be back soon.”
4. Colleen W.
“Colleen was absolutely wonderful! She has a calm demeanor and was so loving to my Poppy while away for a week. I received daily updates and loved seeing through photos the bond Poppy and her lab, Peaches, developed. In fact, tonight a yellow lab appeared on the TV in an ad and Poppy went wild barking. I think she already misses her new friend and it has at even been 24 hours. I will most certainly use Colleen for future boarding.”
5. Natalia B.
“Natalia did a great job at watching my dogs! My one dog was very scared and by the next day they were hanging out on the couch. I think my dogs are mad I picked them back up.”
6. Austin W.
“Best sitter ever! Austin took my doberman Riley in when I was scrambling to find someone last minute. He sent me pictures and updated me multiple times a day. He treated Riley like his own. I’ve tried a few different sitters and he is the best by far. Could not recommend him more!”
7. Sofiia M.
“My dog, Stash, and I met with Sofiia and her husband before his first overnight with them. They were very welcoming and sweet with Stash. On the night of his first stay, Sofiia sent me several updates with photos so I knew Stash was comfortable and well taken care of. Stash has a bit of separation anxiety when we first leave him, so I really appreciated Sofiia’s patience with him - following her around all day, and also with the several times he got up throughout the night. I know he was loved with them while we were away.”
8. Susan M.
“Susan is delightful and took care of our senior dog while on vacation. She was safe and well loved. We will definitely use her services again. Beautiful home!!”
9. Anna C.
“Anna was simply amazing. My dog really enjoyed being with her. She even got my dog eating which speaks to Anna’s warm spirit. Book with Anna and you won’t be worried.”
10. Takia B.
“Takia hosted my sheepadoodle during some late planned holiday travel. She was very accommodating as we feed a raw diet to my dog, and her communication and updates were great during my time away.”
11. Pamela & Marshall E.
“Pam and Evan were wonderful! Very welcoming and warm sitters! Louie enjoyed his time so much with them! Great photos too! We already have 2 more bookings set!”
12. Kaitlynn M.
“Absolutely outstanding with our pup, sent us pictures of Zoey during her stay and was super attentive and thorough to our pets needs. Will book with Kaitlynn again! Thank you!”
13. Lydia & Kieran D.
“Lydia and Kieran were excellent hosts for my puppy. They agreed to watch him last-minute when I needed to find a dog sitter, and they kept me updated on how he was doing (and even sent me pictures of him!) while I was away. Highly recommend!”
14. Nechama S.
“Had my 2 pups (Husky 7yr and German Shepard 5yr) stay with Nechama for 9 days. She took excellent care of my babies while I was on vacation! She provided them with daily walks and lots of treats!! Would definitely book with her again!”
15. Taylor R.
“Taylor took such great care of my little Lola. Her home is so dog friendly, and she has a nice big fenced in back yard for the dogs to run around. I am so happy I found someone I can trust when I travel and can't take Lola with me.”
16. Patchareya P.
“Patchareya was an excellent sitter for my pup. She communicates regularly and provides a lot of care and affection for small dogs. If you have a small dog I would highly recommend her for your future boarding needs. I know I will!”
17. Cynthia F.
“Cynthia was such a great companion for the day for our Havanese puppy! She sent lots of photos and updates of him playing and exploring and kept us informed about how he was doing. We feel so lucky to have found her and will definitely ask her look after our furry friend again the next time we need to be out for the day or over night. Thanks, Cynthia!”
18. Sheran Nipun R.
“Sheran is definitely someone I would recommend to family and friends when in need of a dog sitter. He was very communicative before, during, and after my dogs stay with him. He updated with pictures and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. I am highly impressed!!”
19. Flora M.
“Flora is THE BEST!!! We had to be away for a night and Flora not only agreed to watch Lily last minute but Lily had the best time. Flora spoiled Lily with several walks, play time, cuddles and more! We loved the sweet pictures she would send with updates & even the sweet journaling she did to capture every moment. We will absolutely be coming back to Flora in the future!! Thank you so much again!”
20. Clara K.
“Clara is always so good to our pup. Kids love her updates on Zoeys comings and goings while we are away! Always feel so good with Zoey in Clara’s care.”
