“Any time my dog comes back happy or alive, it’s all good with me. Thank you Madison and Moses for protecting my baby girl over Labor Day weekend! Very much a pleasure working with you and I am especially grateful for their flexible schedule for drop off and pickup! Great people :)”
“Terri is a true animal lover. She cared for my dog Lucy over the weekend. She took Lucy for plenty of walks and even took her to the lake a couple times. Baked her some dog treats and even sent her home with a batch. Plenty of pictures. We are very pleased.”
“I could not be more pleased!! Savannah is a gem! I’m a worrier and Savannah put me at ease and I could tell she cared for our dogs like they were her own. My dog isn’t much for people and he was giving Savannah hugs on his way out. He didn’t want to leave! Hannah was beyond flexible with our flight delays and I greatly appreciated it!! As long as Savannah is willing to accept us as client again I don’t see myself trusting anyone else.”
“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”
“Cerita and her family was absolutely phenomenal watching Cyrus. We had a sudden and heartbreaking family emergency—a reunion that ended in tragedy, which required a trip to the emergency room where my cell phone was stolen, leaving me with no immediate way to communicate with Cerita, and we even got a flat tire on the way home—and Cerita was a pillar of support and kindness throughout it all. She was incredibly understanding, flexible, and communicative, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during a time of great stress and grief. She took wonderful care of Cyrus and provided constant, reassuring updates. We are so grateful for her compassion and highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable and truly caring sitter. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts Cerita 🙏 ❤️ We are so grateful for you and appreciate you more then words could ever express 🌺”

“Hank spent a couple weeks with Taylor and Andrew and had a great time! It was pretty obvious from the pics and messages Taylor sent, that things went well and Hank made himself quite at home!! We will definitely be back, in fact, Hank already has his next trip reserved! Thank you Taylor and Andrew from me and Hank!!”
“I can't recommend Adriana and Cameron enough. We went through soooo many doggy day care places before finding them and couldn't be more glad. They take such good care of our Retriever. They are out go to place and would recommend anyone looking for an overnight boarding or just a day time play date.”
“Stop looking and find your perfect canine companion with Whitney! She went above and beyond to make sure our little man was well taken care of during a trip out of town for a wedding. He takes a little extra patients because he is blind and Whitney handled it flawlessly. She was so great to send lot of photos and updates each day to ease any worries we had about him staying in a new place. Bentley can’t wait to go back and we are so grateful to find her. Her complementary pick up and drop offs are a HUGE BONUS, I can’t say enough great things!”
“Linda took amazing care of our senior dog, who has medical needs and doesn’t warm up to just anyone—but she absolutely loved Linda. She made sure she was safe, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We got regular updates and pictures, which gave us total peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. You can tell Linda truly cares, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

He had a great weekend with her, and I could tell he was happy and well cared for.

“We were fortunate to have Trinity come to our house each morning for almost 3 weeks to care for our two cats. It was best to keep the cats at home and comfortable in their routines rather than traveling to a facility. Trinity checked in each morning and sent pics to me from each visit and that helped put me at ease. All went well and when we travel again, I wouldn’t hesitate to contact River and ask for Trinity again. Thanks Trinity!”

About: I love dogs. Well, animals in general. I’ve always had a passion for them. No one will treat your pet with as much respect as I do. So much so, I might even get a little too attached to these animals haha. But that’s why I wanted to do this. I mean, getting paid to take care of cute dogs? Talk about enjoying your job am I right. I will have no less than a great time with dogs. I can’t wait to see these beautiful animals. I might also bring my dog as well to socialize him around other doggos as well. I hope you all understand that I am definitely going to be the best. I work 25 hours a week and am a full-time college student. However, my schedule is flexible and I’ll be 100% available for these babies and they’ll definitely be in the best hands with me. I have a fenced patio so the doggos can’t escape and I’m always extremely careful with doors and gates anything like that. I’m always careful.

About: Being raised in the rural parts of El Cajon, with my mom being apart of the AKC- American Kennel Club, I spent a lot of time around animals. Learning at a young age how to properly interact with dogs. I have walked up to three small dogs at the same time that belonged to my land-lord of 5 years. Even though these three dogs were considered aggressive toward other people, they loved and trusted me and I loved them back. I enjoy being around small animals and spending quality time with them.

“Madison & Moses are awesome! So easy to communicate with and both have a great, calm energy that was perfect for helping my shy, anxious, rescue pittie feel right at home. It’s clear they’re both well-versed in dog behavior and I appreciate that they met my dog right where she was at. They had no issues giving her the time, space and patience needed to open up in her own time - it made all the difference. Thankful to have found them!”
About: Growing up I have always had dogs on the property and consider them part of the family. I believe a well trained dog is loved by its owner. I am an animal lover who want to help those who have a hard time with placement. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets because I am unable to have one for myself at this time. I am currently retired so I have time to spend with them daily. I can take them to parks, beach, lakes, etc. Depends on breed and how active they are. I have aquariums, reptiles and my extended family has dogs that I am frequently around. I have had exotic, elderly, injured and sick pets in my care. I foster for the Humane Society periodically and adjust my home according to the pets needs.

“Shelby and Dalton are the best! They are so responsive and accommodating!! Literally lifesavers, I work really long hours and my husband, who usually watches our dog during the day, had to travel for work last minute. Shelby and Dalton agreed to watch my pup on one of my long days and were so understanding and flexible when I had to pick her up later in the evening - truly I don’t know what I would’ve done without them! They treated her as if she were their own and she LOVED playing with their sweet pup and cuddling with one of the cats, and I got lots of updates and pictures throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend them enough, I will definitely be taking her back to hangout and play with her new best friends!”

“Any time my dog comes back happy or alive, it’s all good with me. Thank you Madison and Moses for protecting my baby girl over Labor Day weekend! Very much a pleasure working with you and I am especially grateful for their flexible schedule for drop off and pickup! Great people :)”
“Terri is a true animal lover. She cared for my dog Lucy over the weekend. She took Lucy for plenty of walks and even took her to the lake a couple times. Baked her some dog treats and even sent her home with a batch. Plenty of pictures. We are very pleased.”
“I could not be more pleased!! Savannah is a gem! I’m a worrier and Savannah put me at ease and I could tell she cared for our dogs like they were her own. My dog isn’t much for people and he was giving Savannah hugs on his way out. He didn’t want to leave! Hannah was beyond flexible with our flight delays and I greatly appreciated it!! As long as Savannah is willing to accept us as client again I don’t see myself trusting anyone else.”
“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”
“Cerita and her family was absolutely phenomenal watching Cyrus. We had a sudden and heartbreaking family emergency—a reunion that ended in tragedy, which required a trip to the emergency room where my cell phone was stolen, leaving me with no immediate way to communicate with Cerita, and we even got a flat tire on the way home—and Cerita was a pillar of support and kindness throughout it all. She was incredibly understanding, flexible, and communicative, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during a time of great stress and grief. She took wonderful care of Cyrus and provided constant, reassuring updates. We are so grateful for her compassion and highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable and truly caring sitter. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts Cerita 🙏 ❤️ We are so grateful for you and appreciate you more then words could ever express 🌺”
“Samantha is AMAZING! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. She kept me updated while I was gone, sent pictures, and truly cared for my pup like her own. I felt at ease while away!”
“Hank spent a couple weeks with Taylor and Andrew and had a great time! It was pretty obvious from the pics and messages Taylor sent, that things went well and Hank made himself quite at home!! We will definitely be back, in fact, Hank already has his next trip reserved! Thank you Taylor and Andrew from me and Hank!!”
“I can't recommend Adriana and Cameron enough. We went through soooo many doggy day care places before finding them and couldn't be more glad. They take such good care of our Retriever. They are out go to place and would recommend anyone looking for an overnight boarding or just a day time play date.”
“Erica is amazing! I am so thankful she was able to take my 2 large dogs on such short notice. She sent pictures of our pups and they looked incredible happy. I will definitely be a repeat client!”
“Rhonda was wonderful! She took such great care of my dog and made him feel right at home in her lovely, safe, and welcoming home. He had a great weekend with her, and I could tell he was happy and well cared for. Rhonda was also very responsive and kept me updated throughout his stay with lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Rhonda for your pup and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Nick. He was professional, reliable, and cared about my pet's well-being. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I would definitely book with them again!”
“Tanaya was great! She was very welcoming to my Coco, and she kept me updated throughout the stay. Her other dogs were also very sweet and nice to Coco, and I believe Coco has new friends 🥰. Thank you so much for everything Tanaya! We will definitely return.”
“Ben was a super great host! 10 out of 10 would recommend, he was kind, communicative, flexible, and my doggie had a great stay. He asked if I had any specific requests, provided lots of cute pics for me throughout the day and evening with updates, my doggo got to play with all the others, and was taken good care of making the experience a breeze. Can’t thank you enough for everything!!”
“When needing care sometimes accommodations are high on the priority list. Jeffrey helped at every turn and Maximus adjusted and transitioned without any anxiety. I will call on him again when the need arises.”
“Christina was great with Punkin! As this was my first time leaving my sweet "old girl" with a sitter, I was a little apprehensive. I set up a meet & greet with Christina and in just a few minutes I could tell that Punkin was going to be well taken care of. She made herself comfy on the couch and was already getting the cuddling that she loves. Christina was great about sending pictures often of Punkin so I could see how well she was doing so I wouldn't worry. There were pictures of her playing tug-o-war with her tail wagging (it was just a blur in the picture LOL) and sleeping in her favorite "belly up" position, and out on walks. It was a great experience for both Punkin and me - I will definitely book with Christina again in the future!”
“Ami is great! Very responsive and Remy left well taken care of and happy. We had the opportunity to meet with Ami and her dog before his stay. He had a great weekend with Ami at her place.”
