“First time boarding my pup w/ Krystle. She was amazing! So kind, patient, accommodating & generous. I felt comfortable the whole time I was gone with all the updates & pics I got. My pup Bonnie came back happy & just as she was when I left her. Krystle said that she was good & was welcomed back anytime. Will definitely use Krystle again!”
“Eric boarded my two dogs for 6 days and is an amazing sitter. My dogs can be timid with new people and it seems like they both bonded to him pretty quickly. He provided constant updates and pictures. He really took the time to make sure they were comfortable in a new environment. Highly recommended sitter. Will definitely rebook with Eric in the future.”
“Clarissa is always someone I can trust to look out for baby. She keeps me updated with texts and pictures. This is why I always return to Clarissa. If anyone is looking for a sitter, I recommend Clarissa. Thanks for keeping my mind at ease when I was away. I’m definitely returning.”
“Frank & Nancy were amazing sitters! They were incredibly flexible and welcomed last-minute booking with ease. Communication was excellent—prompt, clear, and full of helpful updates. The photo check-ins were a sweet touch and made me feel totally at ease. Bonnie was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend! 🌟🐶”
“Audra is so awesome with Loki, she kept me informed and sent great pictures. I picked Loki up and he was so tired and ready for a nap. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Baja had a great timing staying with Iris and playing with her dog Cody! I felt very comfortable leaving Baja in Iris’s care and received great updates each day about Baja’s stay.”
“Megan watched our dog on shorter notice and was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She sent lots of daily updates and photos, which meant a lot to me because I always get pretty anxious leaving my dog with other people. Megan made the whole experience easy and completely stress-free. When we got back, it was so clear that Timber had bonded with her and was very well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog.”
“Kara took such great care of my dog while I was out of town. She kept me up to date about how he was doing. She even washed his towel he loves to sleep on and cleaned him up before I came to pick him up. I will definitely use Kara again!!!”
“Jessica and her family are the literal best! We met beforehand to make sure my pup and she were a good match and right away I knew my boy had found a home away from home, and a surrogate family. Jessica sent me tons of pics and updates and was super communicative. My pup came home so loved, cared for and even with new tricks! We will absolutely hire her again!”
“Thanh-Mai has given me such peace of mind during my 8 day travel abroad. She sent photos around twice a day and also sent videos from time to time. She communicated with me consistently and always answered all of my questions. Her and her partner Jimmy were even able to help my dog better socialize and learn how to play with the other dogs in her care. Overall, would book her again!”
“I cannot stress how professional Scott is and how thankful I am for him and his family. They have treated my pup as one of their own and I can tell he had an amazing time with them. Scott sent me updates of JJ’s day, pictures, and communicated well throughout the stay. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup in his hands. I will definitely book with Scott. I’m so grateful to have found him!”
“Jamie was so good with my puppy Kai! Kai came home happy and tired. He’s ready to go play with Jamie and Jamie’s dogs again. It’s so nice to go away and visit family and not worry about my puppy. Kai was busy playing and having fun! Thank you , Jamie!”
“Jasleen was very attentive and caring with my boy. I really appreciate that she kept in contact with me about his daily routine. Will definitely use her again. Thank you Jasleen.”

“This family is so sweet and communicated very well with us. Our babies seemed to have been in great hands. Found comfort in knowing they were well taken care of. Will book again. ❤️”
“We had amazing experience with Christie! We were stress-free, knowing that Rambo was in the best hands with her and her pup. He had the best time and felt safe in her hands! Look forward to the next time booking with her! 😊”
“Lisa was AMAZING!!! Whiskey took to her immediately and was on her lap within 10mins, lol. Lisa kept me updated on my pups adventures while I was gone with pictures and videos, and even offered to FaceTime if I wanted! So kind, super flexible, and her dogs are great friends and playmates as soon as they met. Already booking her for my next trip!”
“I can’t recommend Victoria highly enough! She took amazing care of my dog Bruno over the weekend, and her service was exceptional. She was incredibly fast and responsive, always answering any questions or updates promptly. Throughout the weekend, she sent regular pictures of Bruno, which made me feel so reassured and connected. It was clear that Bruno had an absolute blast while staying with her—he was happy and well-cared for the entire time. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. If you're looking for someone reliable and attentive to take care of your furry friend, Victoria is the perfect choice!”

“Grace was communicative and receptive to our pet's needs. Our cat is a simple cat, but she nonetheless took notes and was kind during the meet-n'-greet. I can recommend Grace for any fellow cat owners in Fresno!”
“Eric was fantastic and was able to accommodate our hectic holiday schedule at the last minute. With boarding spas only allowing spaces the size of a crate, Eric offered a space the size of a bedroom! With multiple daily fur baby status updates including pictures we knew she was in great care. Eric is wonderful, trustworthy, responsible, and caring. You can rest assured your loved one is well cared for when you board with him. Thanks again Eric and we look forward to our next booking.”
“Ryan was such a great communicator and took excellent care of my three cats! She was attentive, caring, and warm. I felt much better knowing my kitties were taken care of by Ryan while I was gone. I will definitely reach out to her for future visits! 😊”
“I can tell that Kate did a great job with my cat, Delores, while I was on vacation. Delores was happy to see me, but wasn’t overly clingy, which tells me she had some fun while I was gone. Thanks, Kate!”

Sierra was patient with our pups and we couldn’t have asked for things to go any smoother. We will definitely be rebooking with Sierra anytime we need a pet sitter.”
About: I have been around many animals since I was little including, fish, guinea pigs, cats, dogs and horses. Fun fact, I’ve had 19 guinea pigs in my lifetime, and have raised my own puppy who is now 4 years old. I am currently in nursing school, so I have a structured weekly routine that allows plenty of dedicated time for pet care. I’m home often to study, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, feedings, and drop-ins. I make sure pet care is planned into my day so your pets always get reliable attention. Every animal is unique so I’m happy to follow any specific routines, care instructions, or preferences you have to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I’ve cared for cats since I was 10—sassy, shy, fluffy, and everything in between! Friends and neighbors count on me to feed, play, and pamper their feline overlords. I’m great with routines, gentle cuddles, and cleaning litter boxes (aka royal thrones).
“Well I guess it final. Amanda and Josh are family, or at least as far as our cats are concerned. Great job as always. Thank you so much. Ps. I asked midgie about you conversations and she said infatically "me-ow!" Lol”
About: ⚠️ PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE CONTACTING ⚠️ To ensure we're a good fit and to respect both our time, please review my pricing and policies below before reaching out. Thank you! Welcome! I'm so glad you're here 🐾 Why families choose me I know how hard it is to leave your furry family member with someone new. That's why I'd love for you to visit my home before booking – see where your pet will stay, meet me in person, and get a feel for the environment. No pressure, just peace of mind. Here's what makes my care different: I only take two to three pets at a time. Yes, I have space for more, but I intentionally keep things small. Your pet isn't just another booking; they get my full attention, a calm environment, and the kind of care I'd want for my own pet. Since I work from home, your pet is never alone. If your pup has separation anxiety or just loves company, they'll have me nearby all day. I genuinely treat every guest like they're part of my family. What you can expect • Photos you'll actually love: I take pride in capturing beautiful moments of your pet. Check out my profile photos – that's the quality you'll get! I want you to see your pet's personality shine and know they're happy and loved. • Real communication: During business hours, you can call me anytime. Need an update? Have a question? I'm here. Your peace of mind matters. • A spotless home: My place is deep-cleaned weekly. It's fresh, odor-free, and hygienic. You're always welcome to visit! Just a heads up – I do ask guests to remove shoes to keep things pristine. • Safe outdoor space: The backyard has seven gorgeous redwood trees that provide tons of shade. That said, your pup will spend most of their time inside with me, where it's cool and comfortable. I never leave dogs unsupervised outside for extended periods. • A calm, quiet home: No young kids, and no elderly family members. Just a peaceful space where your pet can relax and be the star of the show. • No pool: One less thing to worry about! Safety first. Important details about care & pricing • Veterinary care: If I notice anything concerning about your pet's health, I'll contact you immediately (and Rover). If I can't reach you, I'll take them to the vet. All bookings are covered by Rover's Guarantee (up to $25,000 for eligible vet expenses). • Pricing adjustments: I do charge additional fees for certain situations to ensure I can provide the best care: Small: Base Rate Medium dogs: (30-60 lbs): +$15 Large dogs (60-90 lbs): +$20 Giant dogs (90-200 lbs): +$100 Puppies under 1 year (not potty trained): +$125 Why the large/giant dog fees? I want to be transparent about this. • Decline other reservations: due to the lack of space, I might need to be forced to cancel other reservations to ensure we have adequate space for your furry friend. • Space & capacity: When I host a large or giant breed, it often means I can only take one other pet (or sometimes no other pets) to ensure everyone has adequate space and comfort. This limits my availability for other bookings. • Physical demands: Larger dogs require more physical strength and energy – from handling on walks to managing their movements indoors. It's more intensive work to provide the attentive, hands-on care they deserve. • Wear and resources: Bigger dogs naturally need more of everything – more food, more space, more cleanup. They also create more wear on furniture, floors, and the home environment. • Individual attention: Every dog gets my full focus, but larger dogs often need extra time and specialized care to ensure they're comfortable and happy in my home. This pricing ensures I can give your large or giant dog the quality, individualized attention they deserve without compromising on care. Why the puppy fee? Puppies are wonderful, but they need specialized care! I take your pup out every 30 minutes to support their potty training and help them develop good habits. It's hands-on work, but it makes a real difference. If your puppy is already crate and potty trained, I'm happy to waive this fee. Again, please review these details before reaching out so we can make sure we're the right fit for your pet! I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐕💕 A day in the life with me 🌅 I'm naturally an early riser, which works out perfectly for your pup! Here's what a typical day looks like: Morning: We start the day with a refreshing morning walk to get those legs moving and set a positive tone for the day. Throughout the day: Your dog will get regular potty breaks in my backyard all morning long. Since I work from home, I'm always here to let them out when they need it. Evening: When the weather's nice, we'll wind down with an evening walk to stretch, explore, and burn off any remaining energy. This is the exact routine I followed with my own dog, and it worked wonders for his potty training. He learned to trust that I'd take him out when needed, and I learned to trust that he'd wait. It's all about consistency and communication! Your dog will seamlessly become part of my daily rhythm – same love, same care, same attention I gave my own. They're not just a guest; they're family while they're here. 🐕❤️ 🐣They will be in a safe and secure environment, where no dog will be distressed. I prioritize understanding each dog's behavior by discussing their temperament with clients and taking proactive measures to ensure a calm and harmonious atmosphere. This is why I limit the number of dogs to a maximum of two per night, to maintain individual attention and safety for all pets involved.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was about 10 years old, when my very first “job” was pet sitting for neighbors and family friends. I know more than anyone that animals are peoples family members, not just an animal living in the house. I grew up with wiener dogs and have always bonded over spending time playing fetch with them, to waking up and giving kisses to chillin on the couch watching Sunday football. It takes TRUST when it comes to pets. What truly sets me apart is my empathy. I treat every animal as family, tuning into their needs whether that’s extra playtime for a puppy with boundless energy, or gentle patience for a senior pet who moves at a slower pace. I have plenty of experience in both. I make it a priority to provide not just reliable care, but also a nurturing, loving environment that gives pets & their parents peace of mind. I’m a morning person, so starting the day with a nice walk is one of my favorite routines & it's fun to do it with a friend. Pet care naturally fits into my lifestyle.. I enjoy staying active and being outdoors. In the evenings, I love to unwind, whether that’s a calm cuddle session or a relaxing stroll to end the day on a happy note. I’m also open and flexible on weekends, making it easy to provide consistent care that works around your schedule. I believe every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to what works best for them & your preferences. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I follow your preferences closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and comfortable. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime and cuddle time, I adapt to what each furry family member needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe & loved no matter where they are.
“Rebecca was great! She watched our three cats for over a week and we felt at ease the whole time. She was sweet to our cats, punctual, professional, and she took good care of our home while we were away. She is trustworthy and her check ins were thoughtful and entertaining. 10/10 highly recommend.”
“Chelsea helped us out tremendously with a drop-in for our two cats. We only asked to check on the litter box but she went out of her way to make sure the cats had all their needs. Highly recommend!”
About: As a passionate cat mom (of four kitties) and experienced caregiver, I understand that every cat has unique needs. My work at a pet emergency room has equipped me with the skills to handle everything from basic care to more specialized attention. Whether your feline friend requires medication, special feeding routines, or simply some extra love and playtime, I am here to provide a safe, nurturing environment. You can trust that your cat will receive the best care possible while you're away, allowing you to relax knowing they're in capable hands.

“Thank you so much for feeding them and so sorry it was such a long day! I can’t remember when but will give you lots of notice but I have to go back for permanent crowns. That should be much quicker than today.”
“This is my first time leaving my dog 🐶 to Krystle and she was amazing! My dog is very timid and afraid and he tends to snap at strangers. But Krystle was nothing but patient with him! She was also sending me pictures and updates throughout the day and I feel relieved. I definitely recommend Krystle and go back to her :)”
“Heather was wonderful! She sent many pictures of our Molly playing with her sweet Husky, and Molly took to Heather right away. Heather was professional and obviously loves dogs. I can tell Molly loved being with Heather. Thank you, Heather!”
“Definitely recommend. My dogs were very happy and relaxed at Audra's. I felt comfortable leaving them and everything went perfectly. We have been to doggy daycare with Audra three times and would return without hesitation.”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the beginning, Frank was kind, professional, and genuinely caring. Throughout the day, he kept me updated with adorable photos and little notes, which made me feel so at ease. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone as trustworthy and passionate as Frank. I will definitely be reaching out again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Clarrisa was very patient with my furbaby Penny. She knew Penny was new to being left with someone other than family. I received updates of Penny throughout the day. Will definitely use Clarrisa again.”
“Ricky was great. She was very responsive and took great care of Penny and her needs as an elderly dog. They even napped together which is her favorite past time. Thank you Ricky!”
About: Hi, I’m Megan and have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I understand that your pet is a cherished member of your family. My life has been shaped by the companionship of dogs, ranging from Chihuahuas to Dalmatians, and I treat every guest with the same deep respect and affection I give my own. I work from home, which means your dog will have constant companionship and supervision inside the house with me. I pride myself on being highly responsible and will strictly abide by any specific rules or medical considerations you have for your pet. I share my home with two calm, small breed Yorkies: Roxy, my 15 year old senior lady who loves to nap, and Dalton, my 7 year old boy who is a "chill" social butterfly. Dalton gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys a gentle play session. * The Environment: My home is a quiet, low stress "zen" space perfect for dogs who prefer a relaxed atmosphere. * The Yard: I have a large, fully enclosed backyard with a pool. For safety, I never allow dogs outside unsupervised. * Safety First: Because I work from home, your dog will spend their day indoors with me, ensuring they stay cool and comfortable. Services & Specialized Care * Senior Care: I have a soft spot for seniors! I am very comfortable administering oral medications. Please note: I do not offer injectable medications. * Active Care: I love taking pups for walks to break up the day and ensure they get the exact level of affection and playtime they crave. For senior pups that cannot walk long distance, I have a pet stroller for pets 20lbs and below to ensure they don’t miss out on outdoor fun. I know how hard it is to leave your fur baby behind while traveling or working. My goal is to provide you with total peace of mind, knowing your pet is in a peaceful, loving, and safe environment where their unique personality is respected. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I work from home Tuesday - Friday, however I can be flexible with drop in visits. Saturday - Mondays I have open so long as I am in town. The sooner I know the better I can plan. I have a fenced in yard and live in a beautiful neighborhood to take your pup out for walks. For senior pups I have a dog stroller to ensure they don’t miss out on getting some fresh air. Pups have free rein in my office and living room to ensure they are comfy during all weather seasons. I can also create your pup if that is yours or your pups preference.
“Thanh-Mai was so lovely with our dogs. Maple and Chloe have only stayed with my parents so we were nervous about finding a dog sitter for our wedding night. We met her and the dogs instantly loved her as if they already knew her. She came to the wedding venue to pick up our dogs promptly and kept us in the loop with how our dogs were doing. She took great care of them and we are so happy we found her.”
“I really enjoyed working with Iris & Robert. Iris was extremely communicative, flexible, and had a nice/clean environment for my puppy. I felt my puppy got a lot of attention and was treated like family. I could tell she was very excited to go to Iris' home in the morning and did not want to leave when I picked her up, which was a very good sign to me. I will definitely be returning for my next doggy daycare needs!”
“Eric responded quickly to my last minute request and welcomed Luna with a big smile and a safe home. I had updates and photos that made me feel like she was in good hands. I would highly recommend Eric.”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Jennifer! They took such incredible care of my Jace, while I was away. From the moment we met, I knew Jace was in loving, capable hands. They kept me updated with daily photos and messages that made me feel completely at ease—and honestly, Jace looked like he fit it right at home. It was clear they treated him like family, giving him plenty of playtime and attention. He came home happy, calm, and clearly well-loved. If you’re looking for a sitter who is reliable, communicative, and will treat your pup like their own, look no further. We’ll 100% be booking with Jennifer again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since 2015 and have hands-on experience working in a professional dog training and daycare facility. Through that environment, I gained experience handling a wide range of personalities,from high-energy breeds to anxious or shy dogs, and learned the importance of structure, consistency, and reading behavior cues. I’ve also provided in-home dog sitting for multiple families over the years, and I’m currently an active volunteer with a local animal rescue in Fresno. Dogs tend to warm up to me quickly, and I prioritize calm, attentive care so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away. Please note that new clients for over night stays are required to have a meet and greet before booking to ensure safety for both myself and the client/dogs. I’m a hairstylist with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention for dogs. On the rare occasion when I have a fully booked day, I make arrangements to ensure their needs are met, whether that’s a mid-day potty break or extra attention when I’m home. I provide attentive, calm care in clients’ homes. I’m trustworthy, experienced, and dogs warm up to me quickly, ensuring their comfort and safety while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart is that I’m not just a pet sitter — I’m also a dog groomer, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’m calm, patient, and used to making sure pets feel safe and relaxed, even in new situations. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends and family, including senior pets and pets who need medication. I’m really detail-oriented with routines and always make sure pets are fed, walked, and cared for just the way their owners prefer. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine since I work part-time. I’m available anytime on weekends and Wednesdays, and I have flexibility on other weekdays depending on my work schedule. I’m also available for overnight stays. Since I already help care for my brother’s dog and cat at home, pet care is a regular part of my life, and I’m used to keeping consistent routines and making sure pets are well looked after. I provide calm, attentive, and reliable care by following each pet’s routine exactly as instructed so they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. In a client’s home, I focus on consistency with feeding, walks, playtime, and affection, while also handling cleaning, waste care, and any special instructions such as medication or senior pet needs. I’m very detail-oriented and make sure nothing is missed, and I prioritize clear communication so owners always feel at ease while they’re away. At home, I regularly help care for my brother’s dog and cat, which keeps me very familiar with daily pet routines and different personalities.
About: What sets me apart is the amount of patience, attention, and genuine care I give every pet. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I always take time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I’m experienced with pets of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including puppies who need consistency and senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m also very reliable with feeding schedules, medications, walks, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to make time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and lots of attention throughout the day. I like keeping pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I always make sure pets are in a safe, calm, and clean environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything tidy while making sure their pets get constant care, supervision, affection, and plenty of exercise.

That said, your pup will spend most of their time inside with me, where it's cool and comfortable. I never leave dogs unsupervised outside for extended periods. • A calm, quiet home: No young kids, and no elderly family members. Just a peaceful space where your pet can relax and be the star of the show. • No pool: One less thing to worry about! Safety first. Important details about care & pricing • Veterinary care: If I notice anything concerning about your pet's health, I'll contact you immediately (and Rover). If I can't reach you, I'll take them to the vet. All bookings are covered by Rover's Guarantee (up to $25,000 for eligible vet expenses). • Pricing adjustments: I do charge additional fees for certain situations to ensure I can provide the best care: Small: Base Rate Medium dogs: (30-60 lbs): +$15 Large dogs (60-90 lbs): +$20 Giant dogs (90-200 lbs): +$100 Puppies under 1 year (not potty trained): +$125 Why the large/giant dog fees? I want to be transparent about this. • Decline other reservations: due to the lack of space, I might need to be forced to cancel other reservations to ensure we have adequate space for your furry friend. • Space & capacity: When I host a large or giant breed, it often means I can only take one other pet (or sometimes no other pets) to ensure everyone has adequate space and comfort. This limits my availability for other bookings. • Physical demands: Larger dogs require more physical strength and energy – from handling on walks to managing their movements indoors. It's more intensive work to provide the attentive, hands-on care they deserve. • Wear and resources: Bigger dogs naturally need more of everything – more food, more space, more cleanup. They also create more wear on furniture, floors, and the home environment. • Individual attention: Every dog gets my full focus, but larger dogs often need extra time and specialized care to ensure they're comfortable and happy in my home. This pricing ensures I can give your large or giant dog the quality, individualized attention they deserve without compromising on care. Why the puppy fee? Puppies are wonderful, but they need specialized care! I take your pup out every 30 minutes to support their potty training and help them develop good habits. It's hands-on work, but it makes a real difference. If your puppy is already crate and potty trained, I'm happy to waive this fee. Again, please review these details before reaching out so we can make sure we're the right fit for your pet! I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐕💕 A day in the life with me 🌅 I'm naturally an early riser, which works out perfectly for your pup! Here's what a typical day looks like: Morning: We start the day with a refreshing morning walk to get those legs moving and set a positive tone for the day. Throughout the day: Your dog will get regular potty breaks in my backyard all morning long. Since I work from home, I'm always here to let them out when they need it. Evening: When the weather's nice, we'll wind down with an evening walk to stretch, explore, and burn off any remaining energy. This is the exact routine I followed with my own dog, and it worked wonders for his potty training. He learned to trust that I'd take him out when needed, and I learned to trust that he'd wait. It's all about consistency and communication! Your dog will seamlessly become part of my daily rhythm – same love, same care, same attention I gave my own. They're not just a guest; they're family while they're here. 🐕❤️ 🐣They will be in a safe and secure environment, where no dog will be distressed. I prioritize understanding each dog's behavior by discussing their temperament with clients and taking proactive measures to ensure a calm and harmonious atmosphere. This is why I limit the number of dogs to a maximum of two per night, to maintain individual attention and safety for all pets involved.
“Natalie did a great job caring for and walking our 3 dogs! She always spent extra time making sure they got their energy out and had attention and love while we were at work. I definitely recommend her for dog walking and care services.”
“Cynthia extended so much love and care to my dog, Sister, each time she walked her. It was seriously so impressive how much attention she paid to Sister’s behavior. I appreciated the many pics she sent and detailed updates about the walk—really made me feel like my pup was always in good hands. Thank you again Cynthia and also to her sidekick, Jackson !”

My rate reflects that your pets will receive the most excellent care and I will treat them like my own while you are away.

“First time boarding my pup w/ Krystle. She was amazing! So kind, patient, accommodating & generous. I felt comfortable the whole time I was gone with all the updates & pics I got. My pup Bonnie came back happy & just as she was when I left her. Krystle said that she was good & was welcomed back anytime. Will definitely use Krystle again!”

“Megan watched our dog on shorter notice and was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She sent lots of daily updates and photos, which meant a lot to me because I always get pretty anxious leaving my dog with other people. Megan made the whole experience easy and completely stress-free. When we got back, it was so clear that Timber had bonded with her and was very well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog.”
“Kara took such great care of my dog while I was out of town. She kept me up to date about how he was doing. She even washed his towel he loves to sleep on and cleaned him up before I came to pick him up. I will definitely use Kara again!!!”
“Thanh-Mai has given me such peace of mind during my 8 day travel abroad. She sent photos around twice a day and also sent videos from time to time. She communicated with me consistently and always answered all of my questions. Her and her partner Jimmy were even able to help my dog better socialize and learn how to play with the other dogs in her care. Overall, would book her again!”
“I cannot stress how professional Scott is and how thankful I am for him and his family. They have treated my pup as one of their own and I can tell he had an amazing time with them.

I’m so grateful to have found him!”

It was clear that Bruno had an absolute blast while staying with her—he was happy and well-cared for the entire time. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. If you're looking for someone reliable and attentive to take care of your furry friend, Victoria is the perfect choice!”

“Rex had such a fun time with MJ during his first stay, I booked him again for a weekend stay while I headed out of town. MJ was great like last time, very professional and trustworthy. His yard gives Rex (and other dogs) a great opportunity to run around and stretch his legs or just lay in the shade of the large trees. MJ has been very reliable and I highly recommend for dog (large or small). Thanks MJ!”
