“My little dog had a wonderful time with Cecelia and Richard. Their daughter took Daisy on Walks and they sent pictures of Daisy laying in the sun and in the backyard. Thank you! We will book again as needed”
“Marium was great from the first communication and booking. I haven’t had to board my 2 cats before so I was nervous about leaving them in an unfamiliar place. She was good with letting them set the pace and keeping me updated. Will be booking with her again!”
“Nicole was amazing! She treated my pup like her own and made sure he was well loved while we were away. She was also great about keeping me updated. She would let me know how my boy was doing everyday, accompanied with a photo of him; this allowed me to not worry about him and enjoy my trip. Thank you Nicole!”
“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“Juan and his wife were absolutely amazing! They were incredibly kind, accommodating, and took wonderful care of our girls, Marley and Nala. They were so patient with them while they adjusted and made sure they felt comfortable and cared for. They also sent us frequent updates throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. They also went above and beyond to help us during drop-off, and we’re so grateful for their patience and willingness to help. We would absolutely trust them with our girls again and highly recommend them!”
“Adriana was great. She was very responsible to any questions or adjustments on time and was fantastic at sending video updates. I also appreciated her flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Hope to use her again in the future.”
“I felt comfortable leaving my big guy with Rosita. We did a meet and greet at first so I could see if it was a good fit. She has a spacious yard and took him for long walks. She was very attentive and asked questions to make sure he was well cared for. She updated me during the day with photos and videos. I would totally book with her again and recommend her to anyone! Thank you!!”
“The best!! I could not bring my dog, Finn, with me for Christmas this year and Delia and Gabriel made it so much easier. It was stress-free and he had a great time for Christmas with them. He had so much play time, attention, and I received a lot of photos and updates every day. I cannot recommend them enough! Amazing family and always treat my boy so great.”
“This was the second time my puppy Bruno stayed with Grace and Claudio! They were awesome sitters over the weekend. Plenty of updates and they stick to what Bruno likes- playing fetch and running around! I love that they give feedback about how Bruno behaves as it gives me the sense of security that he is being well watched/ taken care of.”
“My husky, Koda, had a fantastic time with Valentina & Stephen and their dog Luke. He ran and played in their gigantic, beautiful yard, got lots of attention and cuddles and was taken to the park and restaurants with them. They took excellent care of Koda I can't recommend Val and Stephen more highly. I've already booked another stay for Koda!”
“Debra is amazing! My dog Winter felt right at home the moment she arrived. Debra has a very large backyard for dogs to roam around and play. Her home was very clean, inviting and accommodating. She took my dog for several walks throughout the day and sent several pictures and updates. Debra is someone I trust completely and will always count on her for the future. I highly recommend Debra.”
“Stasha came through on a last min booking. She gave us updates every day, and Bruno was so happy in all the pics. She will definitely be our first choice next time Bruno needs a sitter.”
“My dog had a GREAT time with Jocelynne! She handled my last minute boarding request really well and set up a prompt meet and greet. Jocelynne sent photos over the stay and even sent my dog home with a toy she liked to play with at their house. Highly recommend, I would definitely book again!”
“It was a great process from beginning to end. Darlene is very quick with communication. We had a meeting a few days before dropping her off to make sure it would be a good match. She sent 2-3 updates throughout the day, including beautiful pictures. Those updates made it such a comforting process. Her home is beautiful and clean, with a big yard for doggies to roam. We will definitely be taking Penny back when we go on vacations. Thank you so much!”
“Angelina was an Angel and a life saver. I booked last minute and she responded immediately. Angelina was pleasant and very sweet. When meeting Onyx and Blue she asked all the right questions in order to provide the best care for my fur babies. Angelina sent pictures and kept me updated on all my babies activities. If you want your fur baby to be in a nurturing, safe, and fun home, Angelina is the caregiver for you.”
“I felt super comfortable leaving my little guy with Tracey. I really appreciated the daily updates and quick responses to my texts. My dog is a bit nervous and overly attached to me but did great with Tracey and her fur family!! We’ll be back!”
“Wendy took great care of me and my husband's two cats and kept us updated the whole time! Both are indoor-only cats and them having their own room to stay in was a big deal. Their room was spacious and allowed for more than enough room for them to play and run around in and even had a nice window view. Would definitely book again in the future!!”
“Mike & Lynne were so kind and helpful when my dogs stayed with them the past few days while I was out of town. They have a lovely home and took amazing care of my dogs. Would recommend!”

“Samantha was awesome! She was very communicative, gave great updates, asked questions when she had them, and took great care of my two fur babies (cats). I will definitely be requesting her services again.”
“Nicole was great looking after my skiddish cats. They actually came out to see her each time she came to check on them. It was such a relief to know they were well taken care of while I was away. I recommend Nicole and would definitely book her again. Thanks Nicole!”
“Oscar was amazing with our two cats. They are indoor and outdoor cats so they require a bit more care. He followed all our instructions. On top of that, he made last minute adjustments to our itinerary after I made scheduling issues. We will definitely be booking him again for all our future travels.”
“Christie is a great cat visitor. This is the second time she has been in to look after my kitties. Christie sends great photos and videos in addition to the normal cat duties. Thank you Christie!”
“Holly was very kind and thorough when we met and when she stopped by to feed and spend time with my cat when I was away. She is communicative and sent pictures every visit. I felt very comfortable with her and could tell my cat was comfortable with her as well. I would strongly recommend her to others to provide loving pet sitting. I’m grateful I found her to take care of my baby. Thank you holly, you rock!”

About: I’ve grown up around cats my entire life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I currently live with four cats, including one of my own, and my sisters have cats as well, so I’m around different cat personalities every day. I’ve cared for cats of different ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to older, more independent cats. I also have experience bottle-feeding young kittens and helping stray cats in need, which has taught me to be patient, gentle, and really attentive to their behavior. I know cats have their own boundaries, some want cuddles and attention right away, while others need their space and time to warm up. I’m completely comfortable letting them come to me when they’re ready. I’m experienced with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, keeping their space tidy, and following their normal routines. I also pay attention to the little things, like changes in eating, drinking, litter box habits, or behavior, and I’ll always let you know if I notice something unusual. I know it can be hard leaving your cat while you’re away, so I’ll send photos and updates with every visit so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind. Most importantly, I’ll treat your cat with the same patience, love, and care I give my own. 🤍🐾
About: I've dog sat many of my neighbors dogs along with my own 2 dogs. I am a reliable and loving dog parent. I'm understanding and care for dogs. I've had senior dogs and raised my own dogs since they were puppies. I work an 8-4 job, so I understand how it can be difficult to fit in a walk or play time with your fur baby. With just 1 hour of a walk or even 30 minutes can make your pup pretty happy. Safety and well being of pets is very important. I will care for your dog as if they were my very own dog. I am very cautious and aware of my surroundings.
About: I have taken care for two cats and a small toy poodle dog before. I can walk small to medium sized dogs, and can also cat sit, for young, and older kittens. Currently, I am a oart-time care giver for a 12 Year old cat, feeding, and also caring for An outdoor cat, who was has been fixed. I have a fence in front of the home, and A garage door, to keep the indoor cat safe. Also, the indoor cat has been trained, not to leave the home unattended, and she loves to play with her mice toys, and sandwich toy.
About: Ive been an animal lover since I was little, Ive had all types of animals growing up and absolutely love caring for all pets. My roommates travel often and I take care of their senior dog Riley, he is deaf and blind so he needs a lot of extra TLC. I am local to south salinas, I have my own business and make my own schedule. I have my office 3 mins away from home so have the flexibility. Commutation is the most important thing for me, making sure you have updates about your pet and making sure they feel safe and protected weather it’s on a walk or home sitting.
About: I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities, from playful and social to shy and independent. I understand that cats thrive on routine and comfort, so I always take the time to help them feel safe and relaxed in their environment while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and giving cats the patience and space they need to warm up at their own pace. Whether your cat loves attention and cuddles or prefers a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to match their personality and needs. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple-cat households, senior cats, and cats that may be nervous around new people. My goal is always to provide attentive, stress-free care and make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and loved

“Hemmingway has been staying with Gabriel for a couple on months now. Gabriel and his son Lucas spend the entire days playing with Hemi, Titan and Almond. The back yard is completely fixed up for dogs to be outside and playing. When he has errands to run Delia and their two older kids help out. The team is very flexible as my work hours are all over the map. They were even able to keep Hemi overnight on short notice while I had a family member at a local ED. The pictures and updates make my day ! Gabriel has taught Hemi to sit, platz,up or jump and are working on heeling. I am sooooo blessed to have a great place or second home for Hemi!❤️ Love the entire family ?”
About: I have had dogs all of my life, all breeds and all ages. We are a family of 6, Mom, Dad, our 12 yr old daughter and our 3 fur babies. We dedicate our time to making them happy and live a full life. We have volunteered to foster puppies through the SPCA and pet sit for family as well. Our home is cozy with a good size backyard. All dogs would sleep indoors and have someone with them at all times since We work from home. We currently work from home so there will always be someone home with your pet. We can go for short or long walks a couple times per day and they have full access to to indoor and outdoor throughout the day. We have a fenced backyard and can separate rooms with baby gates if needed. There’s a doggy door in the garage to the backyard and two separate runners. We have a soon to be 5 yr old German shepherd, a 9 yr old rescue chihuahua and our old man a 10 yr old Shih Tzu. They are spayed/neutered and get along great with other dogs. You will have the option to have your pet sleep in the living room alongside our dogs or in a separate room.
“I felt at ease leaving both of my pets with Sarah. She is very professional and communicated clearly and timely. She greeted my pets and I outside of her home and then gave us a tour of where my pets would spend time. She spent the time to allow my dog Roble to get acquainted with the space and other pets. She was very thorough in caring for my pets (i.e. feeding schedule, rest, petting and play time). I received plenty of updates as well. I will definitely utilize her services again!”
“We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! They were caring and attentive They kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs Orca & Bruno were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We truly appreciate all the love, care, and accommodations they provided and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter.”

“Grace and Claudio were so great with my pup! I asked them kind of last minute and they worked with my schedule and took great care of him. They were also super understanding that my dog needed to be separate from theirs and had no issues accommodating. Would def recommend!”
“Velsia took amazing care of my buddy Loki for 10 hours, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was super friendly, kept me updated every 30 minutes, and even took him out on a hike. Loki has separation anxiety, but he felt so comfortable with her, which meant a lot to me. She truly went above and beyond. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
“Super sweet, my dog was very comfortable, it made him feel confident, it is the first time I left my puppy in the care of someone else and there was no problem. If I had to leave my puppy once again I would trust her again.”
About: I also offer puppy training with positive reinforcement and compassionate for senior care, including medication and mobility assistance for all kinds of loved furry friends Pet care is a priority for me with mornings and evenings dedicated to feeding, walks, playtime, and training, ensuring consistent attention and tailored activities for pets In my home, I offer a safe, comfy space with consistent routines and supervision. At the client's home, I stick to their pet's schedule, respect their space, and provide updates and security.
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 10 he was older so I had to learn to be patient with him.Now with a newer puppy I had to find ways to train and help him not be so shy around other dogs As a college student I have my weekends open and I stay at school for holidays! During the week I have a lot of time in between class in order to take care of your loving pet! I always make sure to keep an eye on the pets when outside the back yard or just in the house just to make sure they’re okay. During walks when walking pass other dogs I try to walk across the street from other dog or stray off to the side and wait for the dog to pass us.
“Wonderful!!! Jill kept me updated on how our boy was doing throughout the day with both wonderful pictures and extremely comforting messages! She expressed how happy they were to have him and that made us feel so good! 10/10!”
About: Serving Aromas and surrounding area. As a lifelong animal lover with more than 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, horses, emus, chickens, and even a feral cat colony, I understand that every animal deserves patience, compassion, and individualized care. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment where your dog or cat can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. Located on three beautiful acres in Aromas, California, my property offers a peaceful park-like setting with plenty of room to explore safely. Safety is my highest priority, and dogs are never left unattended outdoors. Every guest receives attentive supervision, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog's stay may include walks, nature hikes, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and, for suitable dogs, adventures to local beaches and trails. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to relax, I tailor care to their individual personality and needs. Inside, dogs and cats enjoy a spacious 2,800-square-foot home where they are welcomed as members of the family. They can lounge on comfortable furniture, sleep on the bed if permitted by their owners, or rest in their own crate if that is their normal routine. I share my home with my gentle 11-year-old pit bull, who gets along well with dogs, cats, and the farm animals on the property. Because I value safety and positive experiences for every guest, I carefully evaluate compatibility and strive to create a calm, stress-free environment. When your dog or cat stays with me, they're not staying in a kennel—they're joining a home filled with love, experience, and genuine respect for animals. My goal is for both you and your dog to enjoy complete peace of mind, knowing your family member is safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your dog or cat. I also do ranch visits and have experience caring for goats, sheep, horses, chickens, and pigs. I'm semi-retired and take advantage of our beautiful central coast daily, either walking, hiking, or playing on the beach. We start our day in the morning with a nice sniff, play, or zoomie time on the property. After breakfast we'll do a walk on the beach, a hike (depending on your pet) or playtime on the property. My dog is getting older so he's usually good for about 3 miles and can't really do strenuous hikes. He loves the beach so we also take a late morning beach walk. Aromas also has a lovely dog park now, so if your pup is social that's a fun place to go. For more athletic dogs, there are some incredible hiking trails in this area. Afternoon chores start normally around 5, when I walk the property and feed and check on my goats and emus. This is more play time for your fur baby, as we watch the sunset and settle in for the night. Where does your pet sleep? They are welcome on the furniture or my bed. I also have extra dog beds for those pets who like their space. I have a completely fenced yard with plenty of space to roam. With the exception of a couple of 2-3 hour windows 2 to 3 days per week, your pet is never alone. I do have stairs so if your pet needs help going up and down, I will block the stairs so there are no accidents.
About: My preferred name is Artemisia (my legal name is Paola), and I’ll be your pet’s sitter and caretaker! I believe animals deserve the absolute best care, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I grew up with both cats and dogs and currently care for an adorable cat and two puppies, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and needs. I work from home, which means your pet will have lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I bring a calm, intuitive presence and really take the time to get to know each animal and what makes them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime and a little training, or would rather have a cozy day full of naps and cuddles, I tailor their care to what they enjoy most (usually a mix of both!). I live in a house with a large backyard, so there’s plenty of space to play and get outside. Whether you’re traveling, working, or simply need an extra hand, you can feel confident knowing your pet will be in a safe, loving, and attentive environment with someone who genuinely cares about making their time away from you as comfortable and happy as possible. I work from home, so your pet will have company and care throughout most of the day alongside my own pets. If your dog enjoys walks or outings like the beach, I’d love to include them with mine. Otherwise, they’ll be relaxing at home in a calm, attentive environment and won’t be left alone for more than about an hour (if they’re comfortable with short periods of alone time). I make sure my pets get a healthy balance of play, structure, and rest. With my dogs, I focus on plenty of playtime and ongoing training, which helps them burn energy and settle into naps while I work. My cat prefers a calmer routine and spends most of her day relaxing in her own space, but I always make time for snuggles and connection so she feels loved and secure. I’m very attentive to each pet’s needs and energy levels. If a dog becomes tired or overstimulated, I’m happy to crate them for a peaceful reset if that’s part of their routine. There is plenty of room in our house and yard to create separate spaces for pets to have their own areas (for sleep, food, play, etc.) if that is what they prefer. ❤️
“Molly is an exceptional pet sitter!!! she really took the extra time to foster a relationship with my dog Annabelle. She was very good with knowing how to use my dogs high energy with lots of play and games of fetch. I absolutely will be using Molly in the future 🐶😎”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and needs—from younger, energetic dogs to large breeds and seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I currently have two dogs of my own, including a senior, so I understand how important routines, comfort, and individualized care can be. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and pets who may move a little slower, need help getting around, take daily medication, or simply need more patience and reassurance. I’m also comfortable with larger dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and boundaries. I’ll follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll care for your pets the way I’d want someone to care for mine—with patience, attention, affection, and plenty of updates so you know they’re safe and happy. 🐾 My current work schedule is very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I work limited hours, and on the days I do work, I’m typically home by 1 PM. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the afternoon and evening. Because I’m home much of the day, pets in my care won’t be left alone for long stretches. I’m also available for morning and evening routines and can adjust my schedule to accommodate each pet’s individual needs and normal routine. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, boundaries, and any special instructions before caring for them. I follow feeding, medication, walking, and household routines closely and never assume that what works for one pet will work for another. In my home, pets are closely supervised and given a comfortable, safe environment with plenty of attention. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding, and interactions between animals. I have dogs of my own, so introductions would always be handled carefully and based on each pet’s temperament and comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m equally respectful of both their pets and their property. I follow instructions closely, keep the home secure, and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away. 🐾
“MacKenzie was GREAT with our GREAT Dane! She was professional, warm, capable and easy to coordinate with. We picked our pup upmat the end of the day and he was happy, exercised, adored a and well fed - all a Dane could ask for! We highly recommend MacKenzie and will hire her again!”

“Oscar was great! We had to find someone last minute and he was very flexible coming over last minute to meet our dog and to figure out a plan for the time we were away. He left us great updates and was very responsive when we messaged him, so we never felt worried about our dog while trying to enjoy our vacation.”
“Chrystina did an amazing job on her first solo walk with our dogs, especially with Lola, who can be a bit timid and nervous with new people. Her patience and dedication were truly impressive—she took the time to earn Lola’s trust and even found creative ways to get her comfortable. We really appreciate how attentive and caring she was, keeping us updated throughout and ensuring both dogs were happy and well cared for. Thank you, Chrystina, for going above and beyond—we’re very grateful!”
About: I’ve loved caring for pets for years and have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I was the primary caregiver for a family friend’s dog for over a year during COVID and have also looked after my uncle’s dog during multi-week stays. I make sure every dog gets plenty of walks, park time, exercise, and socialization, along with feeding, pee pad changes, and a clean, happy home. I’ve also cared for about five cats over the years and currently have a cat of my own. I know how to keep cats happy, healthy, and comfortable with feeding, litter box care, and plenty of gentle attention. I love spending time with animals, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am currently attending hartnell college as a full time student and athlete. As every semester changes due to classes, my practice schedule is always consistent. I am unavailable from 12-3 everyday, other than that I am completely available depending on my class schedule! I am available on Saturday all day, Sunday I am available after 10am. When I care for pets in a clients home, I like to treat their space and the pets as if it’s my own. I follow each pets routine closely, I make sure feeding is on time, fresh water is provided, and giving a lot of affection. For dogs I make sure to take daily walks, visit parks or local areas for exercise and socialization if that’s what the dog feels comfortable with, and to make sure they get a good amount of stimulation and play time. For cats I maintain litter boxes, cozy and warm resting spots, and prioritize spending quality time playing or even just keeping them company so they’re not alone. I also keep the home clean and organized, tidy up any messes, and make sure the environment stays safe and comfortable for the pets. My goal is always to help pets feel happy, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away.
“Holly took wonderful care of my German Shepherd, Nicolai, for the week. She kept me updated every day with pictures and details of their walking routes, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Nicolai looked incredibly happy and well cared for in every update. It’s clear Holly genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog walker! I look forward to rebooking Holly in the very near future. Hugs I appreciate you.”
“Jessica is a great dog walker! She’s always on time, sends me adorable photos of Penny, and puts her leash and collar back where they belong. I really appreciate that she also takes the time to play with our senior golden — it means a lot. Highly recommend!”
“Christie was very sweet to my babies, was prompt and communicated well. I appreciated that she took the time to get to know my pups, home and concerns. I always worry that my pups are just wild and not following our normal and ongoing training with walkers and sitters. However, during our introductions Christie seemed comfortable correcting behaviors like jumping and chewing. The pups were sad when she left which is a great sign to me!”
About: Training and commands take time and patience.over and over the same routine.the rewards come when the pet understands.this can come in the form of playtime. I am retired.pets is a great form of therapy.no stress no worries,no problems.i all ready put in a lot of walking miles for better health on my behalf The pet should be in its own environment.where it will be more comfortable.unless they become comfortable with their sitter.nothing worst than a stress out pet

Commutation is the most important thing for me, making sure you have updates about your pet and making sure they feel safe and protected weather it’s on a walk or home sitting.
“Alicia is great. My dogs can be apprehensive with strangers so I was a little nervous how it would go hiring a stranger to walk them. She was slow with them so they have learned to trust her. I'm very happy. Always on time and gives updates right away.”

About: Hello, my name is Karina. I truly adore animals and would love to care for your pets. I treat every pet the same way I would want my own pet to be treated with love, patience, and attention. I know how important it is to feel at ease while you’re away, so I always send regular updates to keep you informed on how your pet is doing. Your pet will never feel alone. My mom and sister are also animal lovers, and together we make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. Cats stay indoors in our rooms in a calm, cozy space. Dogs are kept both inside and outside during the day, and we also provide walks. At night, dogs are kept indoors so I always know they are safe. I carefully follow all feeding instructions and any specific routines you provide. I also keep a clean, safe environment, including a well-maintained yard. I currently have one cat, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable. If you have any questions or would like to meet, please reach out. I would love to get to know you and your pet. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to take your pets on walks and play with. When I’m not home my family is with them and also treats them with the same love. (No children in the home) I provide safety to your pets by keeping their litter box hygienic, providing a fenced yard, and monitoring them throughout the entire day. I treat your pets like how I’d like my pet to be treated.

“My little dog had a wonderful time with Cecelia and Richard. Their daughter took Daisy on Walks and they sent pictures of Daisy laying in the sun and in the backyard. Thank you! We will book again as needed”
“Marium was great from the first communication and booking. I haven’t had to board my 2 cats before so I was nervous about leaving them in an unfamiliar place. She was good with letting them set the pace and keeping me updated. Will be booking with her again!”
“Nicole was amazing! She treated my pup like her own and made sure he was well loved while we were away. She was also great about keeping me updated. She would let me know how my boy was doing everyday, accompanied with a photo of him; this allowed me to not worry about him and enjoy my trip. Thank you Nicole!”
“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“Juan and his wife were absolutely amazing! They were incredibly kind, accommodating, and took wonderful care of our girls, Marley and Nala. They were so patient with them while they adjusted and made sure they felt comfortable and cared for. They also sent us frequent updates throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. They also went above and beyond to help us during drop-off, and we’re so grateful for their patience and willingness to help. We would absolutely trust them with our girls again and highly recommend them!”

She was very attentive and asked questions to make sure he was well cared for. She updated me during the day with photos and videos. I would totally book with her again and recommend her to anyone! Thank you!!”
“The best!! I could not bring my dog, Finn, with me for Christmas this year and Delia and Gabriel made it so much easier. It was stress-free and he had a great time for Christmas with them. He had so much play time, attention, and I received a lot of photos and updates every day. I cannot recommend them enough! Amazing family and always treat my boy so great.”
“This was the second time my puppy Bruno stayed with Grace and Claudio! They were awesome sitters over the weekend. Plenty of updates and they stick to what Bruno likes- playing fetch and running around! I love that they give feedback about how Bruno behaves as it gives me the sense of security that he is being well watched/ taken care of.”
“My husky, Koda, had a fantastic time with Valentina & Stephen and their dog Luke. He ran and played in their gigantic, beautiful yard, got lots of attention and cuddles and was taken to the park and restaurants with them. They took excellent care of Koda I can't recommend Val and Stephen more highly. I've already booked another stay for Koda!”

“Angelina was an Angel and a life saver. I booked last minute and she responded immediately. Angelina was pleasant and very sweet. When meeting Onyx and Blue she asked all the right questions in order to provide the best care for my fur babies. Angelina sent pictures and kept me updated on all my babies activities. If you want your fur baby to be in a nurturing, safe, and fun home, Angelina is the caregiver for you.”

You’ll never be unsure whether or not your dog is being taken care of. He’s amazing with all breeds and understood what it takes to keep our English Bulldog clean and maintained (as all owners of wrinkly dogs know what the daily regimen entails). Whether it’s a short stay or a longer boarding, JD is someone to trust!”
“Mary is a gem! She was incredibly attentive and responsive. I appreciated the regular updates and was very satisfied with the care she provided for my dog.
