“Frisco always has a great time. He loves Susana and her family. He has so much fun playing with all the other doggies. So glad to have found someone so trustworthy to take care of my baby. I appreciate you!”
“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“Kevin was great!! My original roover sitter canceled on me 2 hours before our scheduled drop off and Kevin was kind enough to take kona in. Kevin and his family were very kind to kona while we were away and communicated with us during our trip sending us pictures. I will definitely book with Kevin again.”
“Skylar watched our dog, Sophie, for the second time, and once again she was amazing! She kept us updated with regular messages and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Sophie was happy, loved, and exceptionally well cared for throughout her stay. We truly appreciate the attention and care Skylar provides, and it’s comforting to know Sophie is in such great hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Nicole is the best sitter I’ve ever used! She is amazing with my pup, so loving and he absolutely loves seeing her. So thankful to have found her. Have used her several times. She is loving and so accommodating with my pup! I highly recommend Nicole!”
“Chengcheng did a great job of sending text updates and photos daily of our pug. She is very easy to communicate with through text and we could tell that she really cares for your family as if it were her own. Highly recommended!”
“The best part is seeing how excited Artemis gets to stay with Laura and Brian. It makes having to go out of town that much less stressful knowing my dog is happy and enjoying her time while I’m away.”
“Liliana took amazing care of my dog, Brownie, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her dedication, professionalism, and kindness. From the very start, she showed genuine warmth and a true love for animals, immediately putting Brownie (and me!) at ease. She went above and beyond in every way—making sure Brownie was well-fed, exercised, and showered with affection. She kept me updated with photos and messages, so I never had to worry about how he was doing while I was away. It was clear that she treated Brownie like her own dog, giving him not just attention, but real companionship. When I returned, Brownie was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It’s rare to find someone so responsible, trustworthy, and caring, and I’m truly grateful to have found Liliana. I will absolutely be booking her again in the future and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“We had a great experience with Isabella as our dog sitter! She took our dog on walks and played with him, and he came home happy and well-rested. We could tell he had a wonderful time. We definitely want to book her again! Highly recommend! 🐶✨Thank you Isabella!!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Ivy was able to take care of victor again last minute for me. She is always so attentive to victor and sends me constant updates which I love! I got pics of him playing with the kids, they always take the dogs with them if they go somewhere and he just looks so happy all the time when I leave him with her. Thank you so much again Ivy! Victor will definitely be seeing you guys again next time he needs a sitter ❤️”
“Amorn and Adam are great with our dog Leo. Leo seems to be right at home with them, and we really appreciate all the adorable photos they send! We are very grateful to have found people we can our trust with our dog and look forward to his next visit!”
“Stacey and her family were absolutely fantastic. We were looking around for help with boarding our 3 month old puppy and Stacey took great care of him. He even had a small infection at the time of boarding and Stacey was able to help with administering his antibiotics during his meals. We received regular updates with photos and he looked extremely comfortable and cozy. We are truly grateful to have found Stacey and will definitely be repeat clients in the future. Thank you Stacey and family for all your help and kindness!”
“Thankfully, Miranda helped us out last minute with taking care of our pup. She responded quickly and gave us updates and pics while we were out of town. Sasha had a good time making new friends! 😍”
“My senior dog was really well taken care of by Alexis and Melisa. I loved that they sent me photos several times a day and kept us updated with meals and daily activities.”
“Areli was amazing! It was Leo’s first time sitting and he had a great time and even met a new doggy friend. Loved the frequent updates and pictures. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Leo while we were away.”
“We are so grateful for Tiffany and her family, and the love they showed Winston for his 2 week stay! She provided us with regular updates and pictures / videos, allowed him to swim in their pool when he jumped in (and even gave him a bath after!), and treated him as one of their own when they dressed him up in Christmas clothes with their other dogs. He had such a great time with their two dogs who matched his energy well!”
“Alyssa took absolutely amazing care of our Ollie while we were away. From the moment we met her, we could tell how genuinely caring, attentive, and responsible she is. Ollie was so happy, comfortable, and well loved the entire stay, and she kept us updated which gave us so much peace of mind. You can truly tell she treats the dogs she watches like her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that means everything to us. We would trust her again and again without hesitation and cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much, Alyssa!”

About: What sets me apart is real, hands-on experience with dogs that many sitters never encounter. I own Apollo, a pit-mix with high reactivity, and have worked through his training alongside a professional trainer as well as through my own dedicated research and practice. That process taught me how to read canine body language, manage triggers, and stay calm and consistent under pressure; skills that directly benefit any dog in my care. I also share my home with Thalia, a high-energy husky, so I know exactly what it takes to keep a high-drive dog mentally and physically stimulated. Beyond my own pets, I've built real experience pet sitting dogs and cats for family and friends, sometimes for days or weeks at a time, handling daily visits and routines solo. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I bring the same patience and attentiveness to every animal regardless of size, breed, or temperament. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I grew up with pets and currently have my own, so caring for animals isn't just a service I offer, it's something I genuinely love. As an online student working toward my Bachelor's degree, I have the flexibility to be present throughout the day, whether that's a midmorning walk, an afternoon drop-in, or a multi-day house sit. Because my coursework is self-paced, your pet always gets my full focus. I structure my day around the pets in my care, not the other way around. My priority is keeping your pet's world as normal as possible while you're away. I follow their established routine closely: feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific habits you share with me. Consistency is what keeps animals calm and comfortable. Every visit includes food, water, exercise, and real quality time, not just a quick check-in. You can expect photo updates after every visit so you always know how things are going. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I adapt to what each individual animal needs.
“Perla was a fantastic pet sitter. I was gone for a week, and she took excellent care of my four cats. The communication was great, and she kept me posted on the progress of my kitties daily. I highly recommend her services to anyone who needs pet care.”
“She was absolutely wonderful. Very sweet, and tentative to our animals. We feel that she went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend her services. And we will definitely use her in the future.”
“Amanda is awesome! She was very attentive and followed instructions precisely. She was also great at communicating every detail and asked for guidance whenever she faced an issue we hadn't addressed. I highly recommend her, and will use her again!”
About: Coming from Colorado, I’ve been in pet services for almost two years and love it!

I am skilled in pet bathing, pet walking, pet sitting, giving medical needs and much more. I am very flexible and will be willing to do anything I can to work out a great schedule that is right for both you and your pet I treat them with unconditional love, respect and will do what’s best for their needs. I want to make sure they have a safe home and live a healthy life.
About: I have extensive experience as an animal caretaker. I have been caring for animals professionally for the past 16 years. I started from the scratch as a kennel attendant at a local dog rescue, fast forward to today, I’m an accomplished veterinary technician. I’m comfortable with all life stages, breeds, temperaments, medical conditions, special needs, medication administration, etc. I have extensive training in the veterinary field and can react quickly in unexpected circumstances. I’m patient and calm. I aim to earn the trust of you and your animals. There’s nothing more important to me than my own personal pets. I will treat your animals with upmost respect, care, and regard for their health and safety. I’m currently a full time Veterinary Technician. I am available during the weekdays in the early morning or evening hours. I’m completely flexible on the weekends. I’m very aware of animal behavior and safety. I am confident I can adequately manage the environment and keep your animal’s safety as top priority. I have extensive experience managing all types of breeds, energy levels, and temperaments. I love investing the time in reading body language and allowing animals to feel comfortable with me on their terms.
“Trinity was thoughtful, considerate of our home and dogs, and did an absolutely wonderful job communicating and meeting our needs as dog owners while also nurturing our pups. She truly went above and beyond by leaving our home looking neat and giving our dogs excellent care. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she shared. We have officially found our dog sitter!”
“We could not be happier with the attention and care taken while we were away. This was our first time away from the cats, and their first time without us. When we returned they were happy, running around, tails in the air, and acting normal as if nothing different had happened. Maybe a little hurt they didn't seem to mind us being away, but that is all the better. We'll be back with Alyssa next years vacation, without any questions or hesitation.”
“Kristine is very professional working with our dog. She was gentle and careing and our dog became very close to her. Kristine was always attentive and on time. She was a blessing when I had an extended business meeting she was able to return and cover for me. In the future I would recommend hiring her again.thank you.”
About: While I don’t have professional experience caring for cats, I am responsible, dependable, and eager to learn. I understand the importance of following care instructions carefully and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I am willing to learn about feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and any special needs your cat may have. My goal is to provide loving, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Hello! I’ve always had dogs in my home growing up, ranging from all different ages. I highlight and focus on warmth and patience in my dog care. Can’t wait to meet all my new furry friends soon!! I’m currently coaching gymnastics and in school part-time which leaves me with enough time to fit in as much time with your loving pets as needed. I’m available from early in the morning to late afternoons. I currently have two excited pups named Buddy and Oliver. They are both crate trained and has excessive room in our backyard to play as much as they wish!

“Shannon took wonderful care of our cats while we were out of town. She was kind and calm, which made them feel comfortable immediately. Especially the more nervous one! She was receptive every time we reached out and always sent us sweet pictures so we knew our fur babies were happy and healthy. We will definitely book with her next time we go out of town!”
“I am pleased to write this positive review of our pet sitter, Kimberly. I scheduled Kimberly to come to our home and do two drop-in visits each day we were out of town. We have two ten-year-old cats, and I am guilty of spoiling them all the time. Kimberly showed up at our home on time every day. She provided detailed notes and pictures of my cats. I tend to be nervous; however, Kimberly was so thoughtful with her description of taking care of my cats, as well as the pictures, I had absolutely no reason to be concerned. We are going out of town for an entire week in the near future, and I have already confirmed I will be booking her through Rover again. I feel lucky I can travel without worrying about my fur babies. Please don't hesitate to hire Kimberly! She's a gem; She's kind, professional, thoughtful, and takes pride in her work. We feel blessed to have met her and her lovely little daughter.”
“I am so grateful that I found Danielle! She is extremely reliable, flexible and my dogs LOVE her. My dogs are always tuckered out when she is done playing with them and they love when she comes. Not only is she reliable and treats my dogs as if they were her own, she makes sure the bag gate is locked, sends photos, and communicates. Danielle comes on a daily basis and I would highly recommend her. Thanks Danielle!!”

About: I am certified dog trainer. I have 10 years of pet sitting/dog walking experience. I specialize in care for puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, and anxious dogs. I understand canine behavior and focus on keeping walks safe, structured, and positive. I’m also comfortable administering medication when needed. I have helped during puppy labor and delivery and am able to stay calm and clear minded through high pressure situations. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and started dog walking at 10 years old. I’m calm, patient, reliable, and always send photo updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide dog walks and drop-ins throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and weekends. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure each pet receives dedicated attention, consistency, and reliable care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to ensure every walk and visit is safe and positive. During drop-ins, I follow all care instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, and make sure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured before leaving. I always provide photo updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Ana! I can help with boarding, day care and dog training (basic obedience, behavioral modification, socialization, potty training, desensitization etc.) I love working with dogs and have been doing it for a long time.

Dogs are never left unattended! Temperaments are matched for play time and socialization. Overnight dogs stay in crates to ensure a calm and safe space for each pup.
“Chengcheng did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was at work. She went on multiple walks, took her to the park, and even sent pictures of my babe throughout the day so I always knew what they were doing together. I highly recommend Chengcheng for any service she offers, you can rest assured your baby is in good hands.”
“Our dog has been going to Laura and Brian D. regularly for daycare and occasional overnight stays since March 2025. He always has a blast when he goes there, which I’m able to see from the great photos they send me. I love that he has so much fun with such a cool group of dogs! We had an unexpected family crisis this past week, involving me to spend long stays in the emergency room. The one day of daycare I’d scheduled turned out to be a 3-night stay for our dog. Laura and Brian were so incredibly kind and supportive, making accommodations as my ER stay became longer and longer. I appreciate them so much, and am so glad I found them!”
About: I have always had animals since I was a kid and I have always loved them! I love their unconditional connection with us. I have senior dog care and medication administering experience. I am trying something new in my career path, which will hopefully include your pet. I want to work with animals more and turn it into a career. I can't wait to get my steps in with your pet! I have an open schedule at this time. I'm looking to fill my week with regular walks, visits, and boarding. I have three daughters. My oldest actually works as a pet bather with Petsmart and my two younger daughters love animals as much as I do......I've been told by my oldest that I'm not allowed at the animals shelter anymore. 🤣🤣🤣 I live in a mobile home with a fenced yard. I have four of my own fur babies that are welcoming to new visitors. Depending on weather we may go for walks at the park and visit the dog park or play in the backyard or even the house with toys. But as long as it's not too hot or raining we hit the park and dog park.

Also, he loved the extra little doggy treats Bernadette had made. Such a great little surprise.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and love and treat them as my own children. They are a man’s best friend. They light up your day and take the stress away.

“My dog had an awesome time! Dina sent me a picture to update me on how she was doing during the day which I appreciated. I will definitely be rebooking for daycare or boarding.”
“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”
About: I have been taking care of both dogs and cats for over 20 years. Animals have always been very important to me, and I understand how they are a piece of your family. Folks always ask if you are a dog or cat person, and I always have to say both! I truly believe that pets deserve to be treated with love and respect, just like other friends and family. I have experience with administering medication, caring for seniors, and babies in both cats and dogs. I am the go to person for most of my neighbors, friends, and family members to support their pets when they are traveling or need support. In fact, I have asked to do that since I was 8 years old! I have two pups of my own which I love dearly have taken care of them since they were puppies. I have learned training techniques specifically using positive reinforcement for dogs. I will ensure to positively reinforce any training techniques you have set in place. I can guarantee that your pets will be treated like my own family while I support you in their wellbeing. I am currently working from home and finished working by the early afternoon. I can support via morning, lunch, and evening/night hours. I am able to switch my schedule around as needed to help support. In my own home, we have a fenced yard and a dog proof home. We have our own trained dogs that get along well with others. If it is decided to have them stay with us in our own home, we would ensure that they all get along well before doing so. Eyes will always be on them, and they will hopefully fit right into the family! I will ensure to learn about your pet's routine, training words, and always request your emergency vet for them to have on file. I always have emergency vet hotlines in my phone, just in case. Eyes will be on them at all times when I am supporting. For walks, I will ensure to learn your training words for the dogs and will reinforce the training you have in place. I will always make sure to stay on the sidewalk or in a safe area for the dog. My attention will be on your pet and their behaviors and reactions while on a leash and walking.
About: Dogs have been part of my life as long as I can remember! Love meeting all of them and can't wait to meet your little bud! I make my own schedule, so for the most part I'm available when needed (with proper planning for longer visits of course.) Feel free to reach out when you need a hand! My pup is on pretty good schedule, so I'm know the importance of keeping those scheduled feedings and/or outside time. If we need walks, someone to throw a ball to get the zoomies out or just someone to hang with so they're not alone all day I'm in!

I've taken care of virtually every kind of house, pet (including my aunt's chinchilla) thank you got something I haven't seen before? Bring it on. I'm ready for it all. I don't consider taking care of pets to be at shore or work. I take care of them because they take care of me. They keep me calm and grounded, even when things are at their most chaotic. First things first, I treat each animal as if it were my own. I make sure to give each pet the attention it deserves. Upon first introduction and the patients to let it get comfortable when needed. From there I'm happy to take care of any special requests you might require for your pet.

About: I care for every pet as if they were my own with patience, love, and a big heart that makes them feel safe and cared for while you’re away.

From playtime and basic training to giving medication or extra cuddles, I make sure each pet feels loved, happy, and comforted so they never miss their hoomans too much.

They’ll have plenty of open space, supervision, and lots of love while in my care. I make sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and well taken care of a little home away from home!

About: I have always had animals since I was a kid and I have always loved them! I love their unconditional connection with us. I have senior dog care and medication administering experience. I am trying something new in my career path, which will hopefully include your pet. I want to work with animals more and turn it into a career. I can't wait to get my steps in with your pet! I have an open schedule at this time. I'm looking to fill my week with regular walks, visits, and boarding. I have three daughters. My oldest actually works as a pet bather with Petsmart and my two younger daughters love animals as much as I do......I've been told by my oldest that I'm not allowed at the animals shelter anymore. 🤣🤣🤣 I live in a mobile home with a fenced yard. I have four of my own fur babies that are welcoming to new visitors. Depending on weather we may go for walks at the park and visit the dog park or play in the backyard or even the house with toys. But as long as it's not too hot or raining we hit the park and dog park.
About: Hi I’m Brenda! I’m a twenty eight year old college graduate that has a special care for animals especially feline and dog friends. I am very caring and nurturing when it comes to pets as I am attentive towards what they need. If they need medication administered, food given at a certain schedule, daily walks in order to increase physical activity, or even detailed washing I am your helper! I do have prior personal experience coming from my dogs named Chestnut and Prince (both Chihuahua’s) I had helped raised mostly all their lives. They have both crossed the rainbow bridge unfortunately and I do miss them very much. We do have two dogs now Camilla and Luna whom I love very much. I had also babysat feline’s as well. I like to proper feed animals in a timely manner and being communicative towards the owners advising them of any updates from their fur babies. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for your fur babies! I board all weekend yes and also every weekday after noon. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and attend to their activities/diet needs.
About: My flexible schedule allows me to provide the care and attention that all dogs crave. I have loved dogs all my life and prefer to ensure that my pups are well trained and socialized. I am willing to provide basic, positive, reward based training if you would like. No yelling and definitely no hitting! There is no doubt that positive reinforcement and consistency bring about the best results when training. If your dog has a training regiment that you would like to stick to please feel free to fill me in and I would be happy to continue that training. My work from home schedule allows me the flexibility to care for your pets, even when given short notice. My pets here get tons of daily outdoor time so they feel happy, rested and ready for bed by the evenings. Individualized care and respect is important to me. When entering your home and caring for your animals I listen to your concerns and goals and take responsibility for the safety of your fuzzy family members. Trusting someone new can be scary so I take the time to send a lot of photos and progress notes so you can be at ease that your pets are being well taken care of.
About: I have cared for animals on my ranch in Acton, CA for over 30 years. I get along well with them because of the mutual trust and respect developed between us. I am adept at maintaining safe, clean living environments and noticing any problems which may crop up. I have worked with a variety of dog breeds of different ages and also have a great method for obedience training. I can provide information on this as agreed to between the owner and myself. I have one dog of my own at the moment. She is a rescue, and I know her particular needs. The same would be true of your dog/s. Each enclosure on my ranch is basically a huge corral with shelter attached. Dogs can exercise themselves and seek shelter whenever they want. I am also able to keep them indoors provided they are housebroken and reasonably well behaved. I can give medications and provide personalized care as needed. Services provided include the following? -Lots of private space for each dog -Dedicated care plans for senior dogs or those needing medications -Large tree-abundant yards. No cages -Leash walk and play time -In-door stays available when dictated by the weather -Social activities with other dogs given they are compatible with each other -Regular photo updates and videos I'd love to meet you and your dog. Let's schedule a meet and greet to become acquainted. Carole I'm am available for boarding on both weekends and weekdays. Since I am retired, this means I can check in on your dogs boarded at my facility on a regular basis. My premises are double-fenced for the security of client dogs. Dogs have plenty of water, and I feed them according to owner specifications. Wading pools are provided in the summer, and there are adequate shelters for dogs to stay in out of the weather when they choose. Any extra exercise desired by the owner outside of the exercise dogs give themselves in the large enclosed areas are arranged for between the client and myself. I will be happy to give high energy dogs extra exercise by playing fetch with them a few times during the day. I will also spend time reassuring over-anxious dogs by just being with them.
About: Coming from Colorado, I’ve been in pet services for almost two years and love it! I first started dog walking services in 2021 to close friends and family and then decided to work at a local doggy daycare/ boarding company called ULD, here I opened myself up to so many new things and grew my love for animals. I am skilled in pet bathing, pet walking, pet sitting, giving medical needs and much more. I am very flexible and will be willing to do anything I can to work out a great schedule that is right for both you and your pet I treat them with unconditional love, respect and will do what’s best for their needs. I want to make sure they have a safe home and live a healthy life.

“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“Kevin was great!! My original roover sitter canceled on me 2 hours before our scheduled drop off and Kevin was kind enough to take kona in. Kevin and his family were very kind to kona while we were away and communicated with us during our trip sending us pictures. I will definitely book with Kevin again.”
“The best part is seeing how excited Artemis gets to stay with Laura and Brian. It makes having to go out of town that much less stressful knowing my dog is happy and enjoying her time while I’m away.”
“Stacey and her family were absolutely fantastic. We were looking around for help with boarding our 3 month old puppy and Stacey took great care of him. He even had a small infection at the time of boarding and Stacey was able to help with administering his antibiotics during his meals. We received regular updates with photos and he looked extremely comfortable and cozy. We are truly grateful to have found Stacey and will definitely be repeat clients in the future. Thank you Stacey and family for all your help and kindness!”
“My senior dog was really well taken care of by Alexis and Melisa. I loved that they sent me photos several times a day and kept us updated with meals and daily activities.”
“We are so grateful for Tiffany and her family, and the love they showed Winston for his 2 week stay! She provided us with regular updates and pictures / videos, allowed him to swim in their pool when he jumped in (and even gave him a bath after!), and treated him as one of their own when they dressed him up in Christmas clothes with their other dogs. He had such a great time with their two dogs who matched his energy well!”
“Alyssa took absolutely amazing care of our Ollie while we were away. From the moment we met her, we could tell how genuinely caring, attentive, and responsible she is. Ollie was so happy, comfortable, and well loved the entire stay, and she kept us updated which gave us so much peace of mind. You can truly tell she treats the dogs she watches like her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that means everything to us. We would trust her again and again without hesitation and cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much, Alyssa!”
“This was our first experience with Rover, or really leaving our pet with anyone other than family. We loved our experience! Cynthia was quick to respond to our request and provided updates, pictures, and was quick to respond if I messaged her. It was wonderful to know our pet was safe and comfortable while we were out. I would definitely recommend.”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer with a ton of love and experience with all dogs, well over 1,000 different dogs trained, walked and cared for! I'll show an abundance of compassion for your dog as if they were my own pet. Having fun, playing, and safety will be high priorities on my list during their stay.

“We really appreciated Lisa (and her family’s) care for our dog Kunga! She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and sent updates. Kunga loved her time there. Would totally leave Kunga with Lisa again.”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Cindy and Hans were absolutely incredible with our dog, Cooper. From the moment we picked him up, it was clear he had completely fallen head over heels for Cindy… he followed her everywhere like her little shadow! It honestly warmed my heart to see how comfortable and happy he was with them. They treated Cooper like he was their own, and it showed in every way. When it was time to go home, I swear he looked a little sad to leave because he loved being with Cindy and Hans so much! As a dog parent, there is nothing better than knowing your pup is not just cared for, but truly loved while you’re away. We feel so lucky to have found Cindy and Hans. If you’re looking for people who will treat your dog like family, you couldn’t ask for better. Cooper can’t wait for his next visit! Sara & Ari”
“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”

“We had a week long family vacation and we were worried as to who we would be able to leave Obie with because he has a lot of energy and I came upon Melissa and Jhoan P. We weren’t sure how Obie would be with the but HE LOVED IT. He had been doing day care for a couple of weeks prior to the boarding and he was always so happy to go back to them. When we picked him up he was always happy and tired out so we knew they were the right people to leave him with. On our vacation they would send us lots of pictures and updates on how he was doing and we always felt so reassured that this was the best decision for him. He was getting all the socialization, attention, and exercise he needed. If you’re thinking about booking with them. I can tell you, your pup will love it and you’ll love it because they do. They are such amazing people!”
“Nicole was great with Frankie! Frankie was recovering from kennel cough when she stayed with Nicole and she was great about keeping me updated and giving Frankie her medication. Punctual, easy to communicate with, and Frankie was happy and exhausted when I picked her up!”
“Armando was very quick to respond and did a great job with our puppy Haku! We could tell Haku had a great time and was very calm and comfortable in Armando’s presence. Armando’s yard is also very well kept and spacious. We will definitely book again!”
“Greg was amazing. He genuinely loves dogs💕. Was wonderful with our precocious 5 month basset hound. He updated me with pictures and status. I cannot recommend him enough.”
