“Christina was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while watching Kyrie! She sent tons of pictures, kept us updated throughout the day, and made us feel completely at ease the whole time. We trusted her right away, and she really came through for us when our flights were delayed and we needed a last-minute extension. Communication was clear, quick, and super helpful. We’d ask her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much, Christina!”
“Roscoe loved his stay with Dana and family - I think he was sad to actually go home! They took great care of him with long walks and provided frequent updates. Highly recommend!”
“Cathy is our angel, our Nina and Ciro love to stay with her. We went to a Christmas trip to visit our family in Italy for about 11 days and she was always updating us on the dogs. Cathy and her family are amazing..she is our official dog sitter! We were so lucky founding her we are really grateful to her and her family!”
“Thank you Paola for taking great care of Ollie! We were a little nervous leaving him for the first time but your daily pictures and videos left us at ease and we got to see how much love and attention he received from your entire family. We trust you and know that we can leave him with you anytime!”
“5 Stars – Exceptional Care for My Pets! I recently had the pleasure of hiring Peiiyi for an extended stay with my pets, and I couldn't be more impressed! From start to finish, they provided exceptional care for my two dogs, ensuring they were comfortable, happy, and well-attended to while I was away. Communication: Throughout their stay, Peiyi sent regular updates and adorable pictures of my pets, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that they were taking care of my pets' needs and bonding with them, which made me feel confident in their care. Companionship: It's clear that Peiyi and her family love animals. My dogs, who can be shy with strangers, warmed up to them quickly. They were so happy and content when I returned, and it was obvious they had been treated like part of the family. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you so much for giving me peace of mind while they were under your care!”
“Zeus and Thor had an amazing time with Lieb! Thor loved hanging out with doggy friends by the pool. Lieb noticed Zeus’ introverted ways, so he let him snooze inside the house while the other dogs were outside. Lieb was also flexible with our return time (thank you so much for that). We will be back!”
“Ann is a wonderful pet sitter. He took care of our dog Bingo for 6 days and treated him as part of their family. I received daily updates and pictures. Bingo enjoyed his time with Ann and her daughter. Thank you for taking good care of our little fur baby ?”
“Ben and Irene were definitely the right choice! They took such fantastic care of our dog with daily updates, pictures and videos. I still can’t believe how quickly our dog adapted. We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Sunny is the best caregiver. Attends to all details and takes notes for any quirks and preferences. I feel as close to my dog as when I am at home because she constantly gives updates with details and pictures/videos.”
“Priscilla was an amazing sitter. She sent me various updates throughout our dog Dukes stay and was extremely professional and sweet! We will definitely reach out for future stays!!”
“It's the first time that I was away from my beloved pupper for more than a day so I was especially cautious about who to leave her with. I was delighted to find Irene and Ken. When I shared that Maisy could easily open the latch gate, Irene immediately ordered a bungee cord. It was wonderful to get away knowing that my dog was safe! 🫠”
“A very honest review: Celeste is absolutely wonderful. I am military and I had to leave on a mission overseas last minute, and she accommodated my needs and my dog’s needs for an extended stay. I will definitely use her services again, she’s a wonderful pet sitter, she’s very communicative and sent me pictures of my dog and an update daily while I was overseas. Her and her family all love pets and are very caring, this shows as my dog gets very excited to see her, her family, and her pets. She treated my dog as if it was her own.”
“Christina did a wonderful job taking care of Finn for a week when we were on vacation. She sent many pics and videos every day and I could tell he was having a great stay with her and her family. I felt very comfortable leaving Finn with her and I will definitely book Christina again for our next vacation!”
“Brittny was super flexible time wise, responsive, and sent updates. She was wonderful and I hope she is available the next time I need to board my pup.”
“Hope took excellent care of Teddy and Oliver, she sent texts and pictures every day. Her backyard is large so they had plenty of room to run around and explore. They received lots of attention and belly rubs. I would definitely have her dog sit for the boys in the future.”
“Bandit had a great time with Tammy and her family for his 2 night stay. I was nervous to leave him but she reassured me through texts and pictures that he was doing great. I will definitely book Tammy the next time we decide to go away.”
“Ellen and Chris provided a great 5 night boarding experience for Remi. We met for a brief intro/walk thru to ensure Remi and the host puppy were compatible. The yard is amazing and perfect for dogs to run around freely. Option to leverage the host sleeping crate or provide our own. Just a very relaxed setting that removed all stress when boarding Remi for her first multi night sleep-over!”
“Lauren was such a joy to meet, and she took amazing care of our pup. She was very communicative and sent us lots of pictures of Rubeus having fun. She took him for lots of walks, and he loved playing with her friendly pug. Thanks Lauren!”
“Matthew has watched Maddie for me a couple times now and I am very pleased with my experience. He and is family are very kind, communicative and flexible, and Maddie always returns happy and tired and well taken care of. Thank you!”
