“Our dog has gone to Iwona for almost 2 years and she’s truly the only person I trust to watch him when we’re out of town. It’s such a relief to know he’s in such great hands with her!”
“Julia took such good care of our dog! She sent joyful photos and videos and I never worried that she wasn’t being taken care of. It was a wonderful vacation in part because I knew Tilly was loved while we were away.”
“Nathan has taken care of our Luna twice now, both times on short notice, and we couldn’t be happier with him. He is incredibly caring, attentive, and truly treats Luna like his own. He kept us feeling completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. The pickup and drop-off service is an added convenience that we really appreciate. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust and will definitely be using Nathan again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Diana and Scott did a great job watching our dog Chalupa. They sat her for a week, and it was clear Chalupa was well cared for and got lots of attention. Would definitely recommend Diana and Scott to others!”
“Fortino was amazing! My dog is pretty high energy and I could tell he was having a great time. Fortino sent regular updates and he took my dog on lots of fun excursions with his own dog. He was very communicative and I could tell he paid close attention to details of my dog’s comfort, personality, etc. He even gave my dog a sweater that previously belonged to his dog but was too small, which was very sweet. Will definitely board with him again.”
“We love Jenna! She was so great with my dachshund Honey. I don’t leave her often, so it was wonderful to have a totally stress-free trip knowing Honey was happy and in great hands with Jenna. She checked in multiple times a day, sent lots of pictures, and was so sweet. Will definitely book her again!”

“Charise was amazing with our dog Zoe! Zoe came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. Charise kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She took Zoe on walks, car rides, and let her play in the yard with her sweet dog Navi. You could tell Zoe was getting lots of attention and love the entire time. We also really appreciated that Charise dropped Zoe off at home for us. Highly recommend Charise if you are looking for someone caring, reliable, and attentive to watch your fur baby!”
“Sophia and Andy are awesome. They sent regular updates and pictures of Max while we were away. Both are very experienced and are able to gauge and took really good care of Max. There are very few instances when Max was away from us in past, Sophie and Andy made him comfortable and gave him love, giving us the peace of mind. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again in the future.”

“Mike and Joanna came through in a pinch for us when our accommodations changed unexpectedly while traveling. Our dogs stayed with them for two nights and Joanna sent photos and updates every day. It was pretty much a spa vacation for them, with a pool and a ball pit and new dig friends, and couch snuggles at night. We know where our dogs will be staying from day one if we are ever back in Chicago!”
“John and Ryan were amazing! They were great communicators, sent lots of updates, and Muesli seemed so happy to be with them. Highly recommend and will use again!”

“Sara and Jose take such great care of our 1 year old. I feel very at ease knowing our pup is in great hands and we’re so lucky to have them as a recurring pet sitter when I’m at work. They do a great job at making sure her daily schedule is met, maintain training, and give them lots of love and affection. My puppy loves spending time with their family and highly recommend!”
“Professional and took great care of our dog. We appreciated the many photos sent to us while Ronnie was in day care. Ronnie has a new friend in Milo. Will book again for future stays with Ian and Milo.”

He was also super communicative and accommodated our rather challenging drop off schedule (it was early!) John will absolutely be my first call the next time we need daycare!”
“Nathan did a great job taking care of our 6 month old puppy. This was the first time our pup stayed away from my husband and I, and Nathan did an amazing job. Nathan's calming personality made my pup comfortable around him right away. I got frequent pictures and updates throughout the day, which was very comforting. And Nathan was also able to drop off our pup back at home at the end of the day. Highly recommend Nathan!”

Provided plenty of surety before hand that she was well prepared and well equipped to care for Zeke. Updated with pictures throughout the day. The type of person you want to take care of your pet!”
“Diamond is an amazing sitter! She truly cares for the dogs she looks after and keeps you at ease with regular updates. My Leo came back home so tired and happy-which says everything, and he honestly didn’t even want to leave her place! Her dogs are wonderful as well and got along perfectly with mine, which made the whole experience even better. Diamond is reliable, punctual, and clearly passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter.”
“Kevin has been watching my dog Ozzie on a consistent basis for many months now—he is very responsive and reliable, will definitely book again and recommend to friends!”

About: Having my own dog, I know first hand that dogs are precious family members who need a lot of love and care and, and each dog had different needs. I have had my own dog for 3 years and previously cared for many of my friends’ and relatives’ dogs. I have training experience having gone through classes with my own dog. I am excited to meet new dogs and make sure they are happy and healthy while in my care! I currently work from home and I can be flexible throughout the day Mon-Thurs , but evenings or early mornings work best for me. I can also be flexible on Fridays and weekends. I have a friendly dog who likes to play but also understands when other dogs need space. I can crate my dog or set up the baby gate to keep them separated if needed.
About: A teacher looking to make extra money over the summer. Traveled to over 50 countries and enjoy running, caring for or fostering dogs for better homes. I'm a teacher online and a PHD student who just moved back to the USA from Seoul South Korea. I have extra time since we are off for the summer. Our dog Lily is a sweet and gentle 2 year old adopted Samoyed. She was adopted from a family at 1 year old because of the coat management. They did however have another family dog that Lily loved. She gets lonely at times, so we are doing this because she loves having friends over! I love dogs and can make adjustments to the walk as needed. If there is a certain diet or criteria needed, I am available for that's well.
“Leaving Luna with Christine was such a great experience. Christine was extremely communicative, sending pictures and updates throughout the day. She left us with the most adorable goody bag as well, with a Polaroid to commemorate Luna’s stay. Above and beyond - would not hesitate to use her again.”
