“Michael and Rambo are great! Michael is great with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. Our dog got plenty of playtime and love while there, and we loved the daily photos. We recommend and will use again! Thank you!”
“It was our first time getting a sitter, Mollie and her family was AMAZING, Nala had a great time. She provided care for nala like she was her own, kept me updated and communication was great. I Will definitely book Mollie again. She was awesome! Thanks again!”
“Amazing! She took care of my dog for three weeks, sent pictures, stuck to her dietary needs, washed her crate and even gave her a bath at no extra charge! I highly recommend her services and would definitely hire her again! Thank you so much!”
About: We have both had dogs almost all of our lives. We have experience with puppies, young dogs, middle aged dogs and seniors. Having recently lost our last one (a Malti-Tzu) at the age of 15, we have even more senior experience, including injections, picky eaters, giving meds (pills, drops, foams, sprays, etc). One of us is almost always home, so your dog/s will usually have someone there giving them love and attention. We live in a quiet neighborhood with good sidewalks to get some good sniffs and walks in too. Working from home gives us plenty of time with your dog. Occasionally we will need to go run errands or to an appointment, so your dog would not be alone long, if that happens to overlap. We get up somewhat early, between 6-7:30 am, and can walk your dog/s then, and as needed throughout the day, along with a longer daily walk if your pup needs it, and then an evening walk around 8:00 pm, or whatever your dogs needs are. We like to tailor our care to your dog’s needs, be it more active and wanting more play time and walks, or more downtime and cuddles. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and general dog supplies, and just enjoy being with them and making them happy…and maybe even a little spoiling :)
“I will definitely hire again. Great sitter and photographer, like, seriously, Karina takes great photos of your dog having fun and being take care. Really put my heart at ease while I was out of state. Wonderful sitter.”
“Isao & Rezairyl made me feel very comfortable while my Gigi was with them. They send photos and updates daily. Gigi is a senior dog and since they also have seniors, they knew exactly what kind of environment she needed to be in and knew exactly how to take care of her. Gigi also got an upset stomach on the first day of drop off, and they reassured me that she was ok and knew exactly how to help fix that problem. I would recommend them to anyone and would definitely book with them again.”
“Mac had an amazing time with a lot of playtime and new Friends ! We received multiple pictures and updates throughout the day, I will definitely rebook and would totally recommend!”
“Brittany was an amazing host! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily check-ins and pictures. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her home.”
“Laura and her husband truly go above and beyond when caring for our dog. This was our dog’s second time staying with Laura and it was over the holiday weekend. Laura eased my worries I had about the neighborhood fireworks that could possibly stress out my dog and she assured me that there would be classical music played for my dog to create a more comfortable environment. Laura always sends daily updates and pictures which I really appreciate. I always know my fur baby is receiving the upmost care and love. I will absolutely be reaching out to Laura again for future dog care!”
“We are so happy we found Marby for our little Jehu! She watched our 4 lb Yorkie for 5 days and exceeded every expectation. From the moment we dropped him off, she kept us constantly updated with pictures and check-ins, which gave us so much peace of mind. Jehu is still in the middle of potty training, and Marby took that seriously. She kept him on a consistent walking schedule that aligned perfectly with his training routine. That kind of attention to detail means the world when you have a pup in such an important stage of development. As a bonus, Jehu absolutely loved her little poodle and got so attached! I could tell he was genuinely happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. He came home healthy and content, and honestly, I think he can’t wait to go back for his next visit. We will definitely be booking with Marby again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive sitter!”
“Irene was great with our pups! We would love for her to sit for them in the future. She shared updates while we were on our trip. She reviewed the care document, and knew how to set up their crates and put their complicated harnesses on. Our pups are high energy breeds and but they came home relaxed and content. When we went to pick them up Bone Thug ran back to give Irene a little pup love before leaving. That was the biggest sign of care and happiness to me.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for many years for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on pets while their owners are away. I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I’m currently a stay at home mom and I spend plenty of time at home. Therefore, my availability for boarding your pet is flexible. I have a fenced yard and I can easily crate your dog if needed. I will supervise your pets and will follow the owner’s instructions.
“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“Where do I begin? Dominique is Absolutely Amazing. She took care of Paris so well went above and beyond took her own walks. Gave her extra treats and extra love. She sent me pictures and videos of Paris and what she was doing throughout the days. I am greatly appreciative of finding her and the quality of care that she gave our little fur baby. I was so thankful and ungrateful for her care that we have already rebooked twice with her for future engagements. Thank you so much, Dominique. We greatly appreciate you and Paris had a ball.”
About: I had a Husky that I cared for for 3 years before I moved away from home. I really miss having a furry buddy around, so I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets, keep them company, play with them, and give them lots of love and attention while you’re away. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and can make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I’m available most weekdays and weekends depending on the booking. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their routine, keep a close eye on them, and give them plenty of attention and love
About: I had a dog for over 10 years and after he sadly passed away, I realized that I still had a lot of love to give! I’m currently a stay at home mom who absolutely adores pets, so my schedule is completely up to what your pet needs and what their schedule is! I live in an upstairs apartment that has lots of space for play time but also has cozy spots for nap time! The apartment has a secured front balcony that can be blocked off at request.
“Thank you so much for taking care of our furry love ones. They were so happy Buster didn’t want to leave. I am very happy to have found you will be first on my list for the next time.”
“My fur baby Chika is very skiddish and can be unsociable at times. The moment Chika met Yvie, Chika wagged her tail and went right up to her. Yvie was very calm and patient with Chika. Upon return Chika was not stressed or anxious, she was excited like a lil kid that had a great time at Disneyland and couldn't wait to bark about it. 😊 Thank you Yvie for making my dog feel safe and comfortable, you are the best!! Chika will definitely be returning to your care.”

About: I’m a dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets for family and friends through house sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and feeding schedules. I previously owned a beautiful Belgian Shepherd named Izzy, who was my adventure buddy for many years. After recently losing her, I’ve found a lot of joy in spending time with and caring for other people’s furry companions. I currently work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility during the day to stop by for potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just some extra company and attention while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk, overnight care, or someone to check in and make sure they’re comfortable, I’m happy to help. As a former dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. My goal is to help give you peace of mind while also giving your pets the love, care, and attention they deserve. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family members while earning a little extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. I'm available to stay overnight at your home Fridays - Tuesday evenings. I have a hybrid work schedule so I am available to drop in during the workday to provide any walks or potty breaks that are needed. I'm unavailable to pet sit, walk, or do drop-ins on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I can spend the night at your home to help ensure your furry companion doesn't experience separation anxiety. I've spent time walking dogs of all sizes, and I make sure to learn any triggers your animals may have before taking them on walks. I'll send photos of your animals while you're away to help you feel at peace and enjoy your vacation or work trip!
“Joyce is great, flexible and caring. She took amazing care of my bonded rabbits. It puts my mind at ease that someone like Joyce is there to care for them. Definitely will rebook when needed again!”
“Daizy took wonderful did a wonderful job with my cats while I was away for a week! Very communicative, personable, warm, and friendly. I came home to my cats excited to see me but clearly well taken care of.”
“Lauren took care of Dakota by dropping in 3 times a day for an hour each time. I cannot recommend her enough. Dakota easily bonded with her and seemed to just know she was a good human! Lauren arrived promptly and sent me pictures throughout the day. Texting me with updates as requested. She’s awesome! I will definitely be booking her again in the future! :)”

I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, grooming, and of course, giving plenty of love and attention.

I’m here to make Sure your cat feels safe,comfortable and cared for while you are away! I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind your kitty is happy and in good hands (:
About: Growing up in a rural environment with many kinds of animals has given me a unique perspective on connecting with them. I fed, cared for and played with many dogs and cats at one time and over a great many years. I look forward to treating your pet with the greatest of care and respect!
“I feel very confident leaving my pets with Laura. She send us thorough and reliable updates that put us at ease. We feel very grateful to have found Laura and will definite requesting her services again! Would not hesitate to recommend Laura.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 12 years and currently care for my own senior Corgi, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. I also regularly care for friends’ pets, giving me plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like my own. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and instructions. I understand that senior dogs may need a little extra care, patience, and attention, and I’m committed to making every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I work a full-time 9–5 job in Long Beach, but I’m able to fit pet care into my daily routine. I stop by home during my lunch break to take care of my own dog, which gives me the opportunity to also provide a midday walk, potty break, or check-in for your pet. I’m also available for quick visits after work and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get the attention and care they need while you’re away! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walking routines, and any specific safety needs. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure doors and gates are secure, pets are supervised, and the home is left clean and as I found it. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their normal environment.
About: I have been taking care of and loving pets for about 8 years. Through either having my own pet or taking care of family, friends, and neighbors pets. I have handled almost every type of animal (Dogs, Cats, Bunnies, Birds, Fish, Turtles, etc). I have done very aggressive cats along with sweet loving cats and for dogs, I have handled big dogs (150lbs), small dogs (8-12lbs), and everything in between. I have taken care of very few senior dogs/cats. I also haven't done much medication (other than pills) but I am very open to and eager to learn medication. I am currently an 19 year who is a part time student in college. I also do have a "real job" (part time) as-well but I will definitely work with you and around my schedule for your animals to make sure they are well taken care of. I joined Rover because I love caring for animals and I would also like the opportunity to make new friends along with making a little extra money to help pay for my college tuition. I am willing to work around your animals needs and change my schedule so that your pets get the love and attention they deserve. I am a very good listener and I will take care of your pet exactly how you tell me to. I will make sure they are well fed and loved while they are in my control. I will make sure they get any medicine they need, cleaned up after, walked, fed, watered, and whatever else is needed. I will keep in contact with you while you are gone sending you photo updates of your pet as-well so that way you know your pet is happy and healthy. 😊
“Marby was absolutely amazing watching my cat, Gable, when I was away. Great communication, sends photos and an update after every visit. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone to watch your pet while you’re away. Thank you Marby!”
“Christina is great! I’ve booked her several times and she is communicative, trustworthy, and flexible. Always puts me at ease when we’re away and the kitties and tortoise enjoy her company. Highly recommend.”
“Cassandra was attentive, friendly and communicative. She took the time to review their care instructions and ask questions. Both of my cats loved her and I felt that they were safe in her hands. I can also tell that she really does love animals. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Shawn is awesome! He took great care of our shy 13 year old cat. He found ways to engage her though she was always in hiding and even tracked her down to take pictures. Bubbles was healthy and happy when we returned and everything was left in order. Do not hesitate to book Shawn. He genuinely cares about pets, is punctual, and trustworthy.”
“Arya’s first drop in visit with Melissa was a success! Melissa made a great first impression immediately, so leaving her with my fur baby didn’t make me feel so guilty. Her calm and sweet demeanor was exactly what I wanted in a cat sitter. I was pleasantly surprised to receive pictures of Arya looking content on the couch, it was a relief to see her look so relaxed with a new person. I’ll definitely be using Melissa again and was just so pleased I had to give her a shout out. Thank you Melissa!”

About: I’m a true animal lover, they have always been a big part of my life, and over the years I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to parakeets and fish. Dogs have held a special place in my heart for over 20 years, and the bond I’ve shared with my own has taught me just how deeply pets feel love, patience, and consistency. Caring for animals truly brings me joy, I have a special soft spot for senior dogs who may need extra care, medications, or a little more tenderness and attention. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Clear communication helps ensure the best experience for everyone, so I kindly ask that drop-off and pick-up times are accurate and that you let me know as soon as possible if plans change. Drop-off and pick-up hours are between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM. Please note: For the safety, comfort, and happiness of all pets, dogs in my care must be fully house-trained and get along very well with other dogs. Caring for pets is a natural part of my day, and my flexible schedule allows me to spend lots of one-on-one time with them. I love giving plenty of cuddles, playtime, and gentle exercise, making sure each pet feels relaxed, happy, and truly at home while you’re away. I live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood and love taking dogs on easy, enjoyable walks through calm streets or over to a nearby park for some fresh air and fun. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs and always follow your instructions carefully.

“Jacquelyne was fantastic! Super friendly and communicated often with pictures and notes. Her 2 dogs were extremely friendly to our Teddy and I'm so glad he made new friends today with them! Couldnt recommend her more for excellent care!”
“Marby is an excellent sitter! Every time I pick up my baby, she is happy, content, and well cared for. I especially appreciate how Marby keeps me updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. I’m so grateful for the care, attention she provides. I truly appreciate knowing my baby is in good hands, and I will definitely continue booking with Marby! 🤍”
“Brittany was delightful to work with….prior to finalizing the booking we did a meet and greet and that allowed us to quickly see how natural she was with our pup, Reggie. Reggie immediately responded in a very positive manner to Brittany. Brittany’s own dog was mellow and good with Reggie. The day we dropped Reggie off, as soon as I got her out of the car she headed right for Brittany’s front door! Brittany is enthusiastic and caring, and put us at ease that we made the right decision choosing her, we will be rebooking with her soon! One last thing Brittany is great at communicating and sent multiple pictures to us of Reggie. Thanks Brittany see you again soon.”
“Inta and her husband were amazing sitters. It was only 2 days but the second day Appa (puppy) was ready to jump out of the car as soon as we parked and was very happy to see them. He loved it so much he almost didn't want to leave. Will definitely book them again in the future.”
About: We send pictures with updates while you are away. We even offer face time visits! Your puppy is in the best hands in Los Angeles county! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—whether it’s morning walks, mealtime cuddles, or evening play sessions. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them never feels like a task—it’s something I look forward to every day. Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their routines closely—meals, walks, playtime, and any special care they need—while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I treat each pet like family, creating a calm and happy environment they can thrive in, even while their humans are away
“Oso had a great time! He loved spending time at Lauren's and seemed less than excited to leave. Lauren's dog Koa is a chill guy and didn't mind that Oso was bouncing around in his backyard. Oso had a deep snooze when he got home after his fun day.”

About: Hello! My name is Allison and I am a certified dog-lover! I have over 15 years of experience taking care of my own, family members', and friends' dogs, as well one year of dog walking with over 100 dogs via the Wag app. I grew up taking care of an adorable toy poodle that I appropriately named Peppy. Ever since I can remember I've helped dog-sit and walk family's and friends' dogs of all kind, some of which include my aunt's adorable yet mischievous Bichon Frise and two clever Jack Russel Terriers, my good friend's sweet and enormous husky, and my grandma's energetic little mutt. In New York I had the privilege of caring for my roommate's full-size Golden Retriever, a gorgeous and gentle giant named Jack, who I regularly took out for walks, bathed, fed, and administered arthritis medication when my roommate was frequently out of town. I joined Rover and Wag after my own dog passed because I can never get enough of dogs and was already helping friends and neighbors dog walk and sit part time. Every minute I've worked with my clients' pups has been such a joy since I've joined. I've gained an average five star rating from over 100 reviews on Wag. I do my absolute best to ensure both the owner and pup are comfortable and happy at all times during our time together, and have taken the time to educate myself, practice, and perfect various techniques to ensure a happy and safe pup no matter the size, breed, or temperament. I took a few year hiatus from Rover due to frequent moves and other life circumstances, but I'm excited to say that I've settled in Huntington Beach and am taking bookings again! It's a privilege to gain the trust and share the love of your loyal, furry friends. I can't wait to meet and spend time with them! Having been a pup mom myself, I understand that pups need special love and care when they are in a new environment without Mom and Dad. Because I work from home, I am happy to say I have the ability to keep your pup company all day. From time to time, I may need to go out for 1-2 hours for errands or appointments but can arrange my schedule to avoid these or even bring them along with me if your pup struggles with separation anxiety. I live in the lovely neighborhood of Bixby Knolls. There is a semi-gated, private grassy area within my apartment complex that I take the pups out for potty. For longer walks, I love taking a stroll through the beautiful homes with generous sidewalks and grass in surrounding in the area. I typically take at least 2 twenty minutes walks per day with Meeka, but am more than happy to have an excuse to take longer and more frequent walks if your energetic pup needs more outdoor time. Because my remote work 8a-4p schedule is flexible, I'm able to play, cuddle, and take frequent potty breaks throughout the workday to ensure your pup gets plenty of love.
About: I grew up with dogs, and so did my wife, so caring for them has always been a part of our lives. We recently said goodbye to our own dog after 16 wonderful years together, and we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with a beloved family member. Because I work from home, your dog will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. We provide a safe, comfortable, dog-friendly home where every pup is treated with patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing, playing, or going for walks, we’ll do our best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel right at home. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs consistent attention and keep them on their normal routine Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and no other pets in the home, allowing us to focus on your dog’s individual needs. Our 10-year-old daughter has grown up around dogs and is gentle and respectful with them. Because I work from home, your dog will receive close supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’ll follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Manny loved his time with Laura and came home very happy! From the start, Laura was very communicative and kind. She made sure we were able to see the space that Manny would be in at her home and shared pertinent information about how she would care for him. She shared several very cute pictures of Manny during his stay. When we picked him up, he was happy and we could tell he had a great time. She outdoor space she has is perfect for Manny, a guy who loves to sniff and just hang outside.”
About: I had a dog for over 10 years and after he sadly passed away, I realized that I still had a lot of love to give! I’m currently a stay at home mom who absolutely adores pets, so my schedule is completely up to what your pet needs and what their schedule is! I live in an upstairs apartment that has lots of space for play time but also has cozy spots for nap time! The apartment has a secured front balcony that can be blocked off at request.

“Anna is super sweet and quickly replies to every message. I had some scheduling conflicts however, she was very accommodating and understanding. Long Beach was hit with flooding rain and she still managed to make it over and give my dog a long walk once the weather permitted! Highly recommend her”

About: I’m a true animal lover, they have always been a big part of my life, and over the years I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to parakeets and fish. Dogs have held a special place in my heart for over 20 years, and the bond I’ve shared with my own has taught me just how deeply pets feel love, patience, and consistency. Caring for animals truly brings me joy, I have a special soft spot for senior dogs who may need extra care, medications, or a little more tenderness and attention. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Clear communication helps ensure the best experience for everyone, so I kindly ask that drop-off and pick-up times are accurate and that you let me know as soon as possible if plans change. Drop-off and pick-up hours are between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

Caring for pets is a natural part of my day, and my flexible schedule allows me to spend lots of one-on-one time with them. I love giving plenty of cuddles, playtime, and gentle exercise, making sure each pet feels relaxed, happy, and truly at home while you’re away. I live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood and love taking dogs on easy, enjoyable walks through calm streets or over to a nearby park for some fresh air and fun. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs and always follow your instructions carefully. Above all, I focus on keeping every pup safe, comfortable, and happy, making sure they feel loved and well cared for the whole time they’re with me. 🐾

About: We have both had dogs almost all of our lives. We have experience with puppies, young dogs, middle aged dogs and seniors. Having recently lost our last one (a Malti-Tzu) at the age of 15, we have even more senior experience, including injections, picky eaters, giving meds (pills, drops, foams, sprays, etc). One of us is almost always home, so your dog/s will usually have someone there giving them love and attention. We live in a quiet neighborhood with good sidewalks to get some good sniffs and walks in too. Working from home gives us plenty of time with your dog. Occasionally we will need to go run errands or to an appointment, so your dog would not be alone long, if that happens to overlap. We get up somewhat early, between 6-7:30 am, and can walk your dog/s then, and as needed throughout the day, along with a longer daily walk if your pup needs it, and then an evening walk around 8:00 pm, or whatever your dogs needs are. We like to tailor our care to your dog’s needs, be it more active and wanting more play time and walks, or more downtime and cuddles. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and general dog supplies, and just enjoy being with them and making them happy…and maybe even a little spoiling :)
“Laura and her husband truly go above and beyond when caring for our dog. This was our dog’s second time staying with Laura and it was over the holiday weekend. Laura eased my worries I had about the neighborhood fireworks that could possibly stress out my dog and she assured me that there would be classical music played for my dog to create a more comfortable environment. Laura always sends daily updates and pictures which I really appreciate. I always know my fur baby is receiving the upmost care and love. I will absolutely be reaching out to Laura again for future dog care!”
“Irene was great with our pups! We would love for her to sit for them in the future. She shared updates while we were on our trip. She reviewed the care document, and knew how to set up their crates and put their complicated harnesses on. Our pups are high energy breeds and but they came home relaxed and content. When we went to pick them up Bone Thug ran back to give Irene a little pup love before leaving. That was the biggest sign of care and happiness to me.”

“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“Where do I begin? Dominique is Absolutely Amazing. She took care of Paris so well went above and beyond took her own walks. Gave her extra treats and extra love. She sent me pictures and videos of Paris and what she was doing throughout the days. I am greatly appreciative of finding her and the quality of care that she gave our little fur baby. I was so thankful and ungrateful for her care that we have already rebooked twice with her for future engagements. Thank you so much, Dominique. We greatly appreciate you and Paris had a ball.”
“Definitely the best sitters ever! Thank you for being so kind and awesome. My 8 year Frenchie who has had IVDD spinal surgery was in excellent hands. Their home and neighborhood is so beautiful. My pup has unlimited sun bathing in their beautiful gated yard. You can tell they are just so loving and care about animals so much. I received tons of pics while I was away. Thanks again for everything! Will definitely be back”
“Christa was awesome! My dog Toby is pretty finicky, but she went above and beyond, going to the grocery store to get him cheese and other special treats and making sure he felt comfortable. He also gets itchy skin especially when he is nervous so she got him coconut oil to rub on his fur. She also took him on so many fun beach adventures and concerts in the park which I really appreciated. I was really happy with Christa! Would trust her again to take care of my Toby!”
“Marlo is always amazing with Rufus. He has been with her several times now and she always updates me consistently with picture. I will continue to use her until she says no”
“Katherine and John are amazing!! Our Henny had a great time and loved every second of his stay. Appreciated all the updates and photos and trusted them with taking care of Henny”
“Moose (4yr old male goldendoodle) always has a great time under the care of Maritza. Martitza is gentle with Moose and provides me with updates and pictures/videos throughout the day. Moose gets to relax and play with other pups and is always meeting new friends. Moose and I are truly grateful!”

She gladly accepted and assured me he was in good care upon drop off. Lianna was great about sending pictures and videos of Zyon which brought more reassurance. Overall would rate this a great experience and I will definitely be sending my puppy back.”
