Matthew and Katelyn were wonderful hosts for Desta. Their quick responses and clear communication made me feel confident that Desta was well cared for. I’d definitely book with them again.

Our dog, Stan, does not easily warm up to people outside our family. We adopted him when he was 8 weeks old, and while he is well-socialized with other dogs, he remains very timid around new people. Before boarding Stan with Kimmy and Jesse, we had used the same sitter on two separate occasions, each for a week. During those stays, Stan always hid under her coffee table and never let her get close to him. However, with Kimmy and Jesse, the experience was completely different. On day four, Kimmy sent us pictures of herself petting Stan—a huge milestone for him. By day five, she was even able to take him on a walk around the neighborhood. Day by day, Stan grew more comfortable in their care. Seeing our timid dog so well cared for made us incredibly happy! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring couple or a more loving environment to board Stan. We are so grateful and look forward to boarding him with them on our upcoming spring break!

Shannon was absolutely wonderful with Dobby. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my dog was having a vacation of his own with Apollo. She gave frequent updates with plenty of photos and was very communicative during the stay. I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Sein took wonderful care of Maggie over the long weekend! They kept me updated with frequent photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Maggie got plenty of playtime and walks, and Sein even spent time working on her zigzagging during walks, which I really appreciated. Their apartment was clean, and their dogs were calm and friendly, making it a great environment for Maggie. I highly recommend Sein and would happily book with them again.

Three weeks after we got our puppy, we had to go on a week long trip and finding Mora could not have been short of a miracle. Our 4 months puppy loved spending time with her and knowing that he was in such a capable hand help us to also enjoy our time away! Mora was such a wonderful and loving caregiver and also spent some time to teach him new skills. I could not be happier with her and would recommend her to all of our friends, no need to say that she would always be our first choice! Thank you Mora

I could tell Howie felt comfortable with her from the get go, and could tell even more that he was getting attached by the end of my trip. Howie would love to see Jessica again in the future ❤️

Yun was an excellent sitter for our dog Orzo! Our friends who usually watch Orzo were out of town, and Yun was happy to accomodate our booking within a week’s notice. Yun was communicative and sent us daily updates on Orzo’s behavior. We especially appreciate the fact that Yun was flexible with Orzo’s pickup time — our flight was late which made us ~45 min delayed in our agreed upon pickup time. Thank you, Yun! 🤗

Meerim & Saumya were amazing, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! They took care of our dog Bailey for 2 weeks and the entire experience was exceptional. It was clear they treated her like family. Meerim & Saumya were attentive, loving, and thoughtful in every aspect of her care. Bailey was comfortable in their home and we received plenty of photos and updates! When she was picked up, Bailey was relaxed, happy, and clearly had a wonderful time, which says everything! I would happily trust them with Bailey again.

I cannot recommend Tillana enough! She recently took care of our dogs, and the level of service was absolutely outstanding. One of our dogs needed regular medication, and she handled it flawlessly, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. We loved receiving her regular updates and photos—it really showed how much she genuinely cares about the animals in her custody. To top it all off, she even reached out a day after the dogs came home just to check in and see how they were settling back in. We will definitely be back. Thank you, Tillana, for treating our pups like family!

My dog Moxie loved her one night of boarding with Jesse and Kimmy. She absolutely loved playing with their dog and the two other dogs that were also staying over. I really missed Moxie, so I was really grateful that Jesse and Kimmy sent me lots of pictures and videos to update me on how she was doing. When I came to pick her up, they even gave me a little baggie with some dog treats and a little Polaroid picture of her! 10/10 would drop Moxie off for a slumber party again.

This was our first time leaving our 13 month old dog with a sitter and it went great! Charlotte was very kind and assured me right away that she was well equipped to handle Theo. She sent lots of pictures and videos each day that we were away, followed our feeding and care instructions, and gave him a ton of exercise. He seemed very happy and we were so glad he was in such good hands while we were away!

Lia did an incredible job caring for our pup Foley. Foley struggles at bigger boarding options and can become very stressed. But Lia had a perfect set up for him with her lovely backyard, friend pup Gigi, and welcoming home. We would definitely trust her to watch Foley again (if him waking her up bright and early for food is not a dealbreaker for her…).
