“Yingying took care of my dog really well for the week. My dog Nia has separation anxiety and yingying let her sleep in the bedroom to keep her calm. We really appreciate it.”
“Thalia cared for my dog, Cody, overnight for the first time. Everything went very well. He is an anxious little guy, but based on her photos and feedback, I believe it was a good experience for Cody. Thalia sent me lots of photos and updates which I appreciated. I would have her care for Cody again. Thank you Thalia.”
“Brenna had an amazing stay at Liz's house! She loved running around the fully fenced yard with Charlie, and Liz was wonderfully communicative so my husband and I knew what Brenna was up to while we were out of town. We also received some great photos that perfectly captured the essence of our curious pup. We would love to book with Liz and Charlie again!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter. Lucille was great! She maintained great contact and was very in tuned to the nuances of each dog. I was thrilled that the dogs got exercise and went on lots of walks! Would definitely use Lucille again!”
“We boarded our Dobby (dog) with Jo Tom during a family crisis. They treated him with the same level of love and care as they do their own. They sent daily pics and updates. Communicated with us clearly and without delay. He was comfortable, confident, safe, healthy, and happy with them. I highly recommend Jo and Tom for doggy day care and stay care. Jo. Thank you so very much. It was a huge relief knowing that our precious boy was safe with you.”
“Avery accepted our dog Zeppelin for a last minute trip. She was very attentive, communicative and sent us pics of our beloved family dog. My young kids loved the pictures she sent. If I ever need a sitter again or if anyone asks, I will absolutely recommend Avery for the future!!!”
About: I am a responsible and caring dog owner with hands on experience raising my own Golden Retriever puppy. I understand the importance of feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, basic training, and providing lots of love and attention. I will treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I am reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine and any special care instructions. As a dedicated dog mom to my 6-month-old Golden Retriever, pet care is already part of my daily routine. I plan my day around walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and training. I have a flexible schedule and will make sure your pet gets the same love, attention, and care that I give my own dog. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. As a Golden Retriever owner, I understand how important routine, exercise, and positive attention are. I always follow each owner’s care instructions, keep pets supervised, provide fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of playtime and affection. I will treat your pet like a member of my own family and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.
“Tilly seemed to enjoy her overnight stay and interacted well with Alexandra’s dog. There was excellent communication between us with several great status photos provided. Will certainly use her services again!”
“Peter and his family took great care of our Boomah. We know he had a blast with them because he almost didn't want to leave their house. I would definitely use him again!”
“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!”
“Ashley was awesome and we loved her. Her communication was fast as it was a last minute reservation. She understood our dogs need and behaviour instantly. She really took very good care of our fur baby. He was very happy and had a great time with Ashley and her dog. We and our fur baby is very happy with Ashley and how she cared for our dog. We would certainly go back to her.”
“We're hapoy to share that Dexter had an amazing 4-night stay with Kavita! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated regularly. What truly impressed us was her attentiveness to Dexter's specific needs - she quickly picked up on his resource guarding issue and handled it with care. Unlike other sitters, Kavita's insight and expertise made all the difference. After 5 years of using various pet care services, we can confidently say this experience was one of the best. We highly recommend Kavita's home as a warm and welcoming haven for your furry friend - it's truly a home away from home!”
“Cherie boarded our two goldendoodles for a weekend. They were very well cared for and came home two happy, tired pups after playing in her beautiful fenced in yard all day. We would highly recommend Cherie and plan to use her services again in the future.”
“Sergio was a perfect fit to watch Winston over the holidays. He kept us up to date everyday with videos which made it a lot easier to be across the country from him! We will be using Sergio again and highly recommend him!”

“Sarah-Jane did such a great job watching our kittens for a night of overnight care! She sent thorough updates with multiple photos to let us know how the girls were doing and they loved her. She even brought a couple fun toys for them to play with while she was here. They are high energy kittens and she did great with them. The thank you note was thoughtful. Thank you so much! 🐈”

“Stephanie was great! They made sure to communicate every day and followed all the instructions to a T. Their availability during the holidays helped me a lot. Would book again.”
“Steven really cares about the pet he’s sitting! He patiently created a bond with our very shy cat Coco, we were impressed by the progress and trust they built. It certainly makes you feel more comfortable while being away. Additionally, he also takes care of things unasked, e.g. seeing that plants could need water and proactively asks whether to water it, gets the mail etc. We just can highly recommend him and are also repeat customer ourselves.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I adjust my care to match their energy levels, medical needs, and routines. I'm available for boarding on the weekends and any night after 4 pm. There will always be a trusted adult at home to keep your furry friend happy and cared for! I have a fenced in yard and a border collie living at home. He is extremely friendly and his best friend is my brother's teacup Yorkie, so he gets along with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments!
“Kristen is amazing!!! She needed to shovel her way in to feed our cats one night, *and* she had to clean up one of my forgetful messes, but Kristen stops at nothing to make sure our home and pets are well cared for! She also managed to befriend my very suspicious cats— no easy feat! Will definitely use Kristen again when needed! 🙌🙌”
About: I have had my two cats lily and Iris for 5 years. I love to play with them with little light lasers, toy mouse’s, and long sticks with feathers for them to jump and catch! One has a lot of energy and the other loves to just loaf so I understand how to care for both personalities.
“Emily was so wonderful with taking care of our cat and dog! She provided great updates with lots of details and photos, and we could relax on our trip knowing our pets were getting lots of attention and love. 😊”
About: I have owned or cared for 4 legged friends for most of my life. Family and friends have had me care for their pets since I was about 12, but owning my own really made me love them. I am comfortable with pets of all sizes, but I have a special place in my heart for larger breed dogs and orange cats. I would love to help reinforce your dogs training, encourage socialization and exercise in settings that are safe and dog friendly, and I am passionate that animals are part of a family. I am comfortable feeding both dogs and cats, and have experience medicating both. I'm a stay at home mom with a kiddo who is in elementary school, so my schedule tends to be flexible depending on the day and school schedules. Please be aware that if a visit or walk is scheduled on a day that there is no school, (such as a holiday or vacation), or a time that school is not in session (half days, weekends, or after school hours) my daughter may join me. I love going for walks and exploring new areas, but can also happily cuddle a furry friend. I am able to feed, pick up after, and care for animals with confidence. I am comfortable taking instruction and will do my absolute best to make sure that you are happy with my visit with your furry family member. I don't worry about bigger dogs, they're just more to love! Meeting a new dog prior to the first visit is a requirement for my services.
About: I’ve had cats for most of my life and have experience caring for both male and female cats, including kittens and adults. I’ve raised newborn kittens, given oral and eye medications, clipped nails, and cared for cats with different personalities and needs. I know every cat is different, so I’m patient and let them adjust at their own pace while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their own space, I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with plenty photos and messages while you’re away.

“Ok, so Lola and I are quite picky. Lola has come home very happy over all the days that she has been over. She’s been walked, fed, and got to play with other dogs. I’m extremely happy with her care. :)”
About: I’ve raised three dogs from puppies to adulthood, so I have years of hands-on experience with dogs of different ages and personalities. Now, when my friends travel, they trust me to take care of their dogs at my home. I treat every dog like my own — with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs.

Your dog will always have someone nearby for company and comfort. We provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home where dogs can relax and feel at ease. I am always at home to supervise and care for the pets, ensuring they’re never left alone. We don’t use cages — dogs are free to roam, rest, or play as they wish. Our quiet neighborhood with low traffic offers a safe environment for walks. We keep a close eye on each pet’s well-being and behavior. Every pet is treated like family, with patience, love, and constant care.
“Julie and her family were great and provided excellent piece of mind. The interview process was very helpful to make sure that it would be a good fit and we got a lot of useful updates during our dog's stay.”

About: I’ve had my dog for 6 years since she was a puppy. She is house trained and is trained to be out without a leash. She is great with children and other dogs. I’m currently a college student so I have 1-2 classes a day with breaks in between. My classes are only 1-2.5 hours and don’t consume too much of my time. I have a huge fenced in your with more than enough space for a big dog to run around and play and release any stored up energy they might have. I also live in a nice quiet neighborhood that is perfect to go on walks.
“Initially before my Scottie Dog’s daycare, we did a “Meet and Greet”, which gave Jack an opportunity to interact with Kavita’s dog, Toby. Toby was very welcoming to another dog to share his spacious fenced in backyard. The next day, I dropped off Jack, who was eager to meet his new dog friend, Toby. During the day, Kavita sent me a photo, and video of Jack’s outside activity. It was very reassuring to know that my pet was doing just fine interacting with the other dogs.”

I understand how important your fur baby is to you, and I treat every dog like my own — with patience, attention, and lots of playtime. Your pup is in great hands! I work part-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility throughout the day to give your pup the attention they deserve. I’m available midday and afternoons, making me a great fit for dogs who need midday check-ins or walks. I live in a cozy 1-bedroom apartment with my own friendly, socialized dog — so your pup will always have a playmate! I keep a safe, pet-proofed space and treat every dog like family.
“Great experience—very communicative and kept me updated with photos. It was clear my dog had an amazing time playing with her dogs, because he came home happily tired. I will book again!”
“Cheryl has a great setup and is a dog lover and incredible resource! We had a meet and greet prior to the day I dropped off my 4 month old puppy and I felt at ease leaving her there (her first daycare experience which could’ve been nerve wracking but I knew she’d be in great hands). My pup was tired from playing and learning from the other dogs there and slept so well after! I will be using Cheryl’s services again in the future!”
“Xiaofan was so wonderful with Luna. Luna had such a great time, didn’t even look back when we got there because she was so excited. Highly recommend and will be using again.”
About: I work from home, so your pet will never be alone for more than a few hours. I have 3 dogs in the home plus 3 cats and 3 birds. I dogsit and cat sit for friends and family. I currently work from home. I am home all day and I have a fully fenced in yard. If you have a dog that is crate trained that would be perfect. I have time to let them out multiple times during the day as well. I do prefer well socialized dogs. I do have a fenced-in yard and I care for one foster dog and currently 3 of my own. If you have a well balanced dog who has manners I am more than happy to assist. MUST BE OK WITH CATS >^..^<

“Lucille is fantastic! She is very caring and kind. She is so easy work with and very accommodating. She took very good care of Kona and sent me pictures and updates through the stay. I am looking forward to having Kona stay with Lucille again soon! It’s such a relief to have someone so trustworthy and reliable to care for my beloved dog at times when I cannot.”
“Lori was great! Tucker is an anxious dog and I had complete confidence he was going to be cared for with that sensitivity in mind. She was extremely communicative and responsive throughout Tucker’s stay as well. I’d definitely recommend Lori and would book with her again.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was a child—I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, and I truly see them as family. I have two cats, Bleu and Theodore who are my absolute world, and I treat every pet I care for with the same love, patience, and attention as I give my own. What sets me apart from other sitters is my natural connection with animals and my commitment to creating a safe, calm, and happy environment tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience with a wide range of animals, including high-energy puppies, shy or anxious pets, and senior dogs and cats who need extra TLC. I’m reliable, intuitive, and attentive to small details—whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, recognizing signs of stress, or making sure your pet gets their favorite toy before bedtime. I go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I’m here to make your pet feel at home even when they’re not! Right now, pet care is my top priority—I’m not working another job, so I have full availability to dedicate to your pets. This means I’m flexible with scheduling, whether you need early morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings. Because I’m not juggling other commitments, I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I’m here to make your life easier and your pet’s day happier—every single time! When caring for pets in your home, I stick closely to your routines to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for just like you’re there. I keep things tidy, follow any feeding or medication schedules, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and love. If your pet is staying at my home, I ask that you bring their crate, leash, food, and anything else that helps them feel secure and settled (like their favorite toy or blanket). I’ll make sure they have a cozy, clean space, regular walks, and lots of affection throughout their stay. Whether we’re out for a walk or having a quiet day inside, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and care tailored to their personality and needs.
“Alyssa was able to take my dog last minute which was a huge help. My dog had a great time and was taken good care of. It was great she was able to play with other dogs in a fenced in yard.”
About: I’ve owned many dogs since a child ! They need a lot of attention and care when their owners are away and I’m ready to provide that care ! Make it feel as cozy as possible for them ! I’m currently a stay at home mom so I have more then enough time to spend with them, my schedule is fully open for any need Depending if it’s a long or short stay longer stays will require more, more walking, feeding bathing! But I am ready for any situation needed
“Kathryn is great. She took great care of my dog while I was at work. Sent me pictures and updates so that I knew how he was doing. Highly recommend. We did daycare with her and he loves being there and playing with her dogs and whoever else she is watching that day”

“Alyssa was great! Came by for a meet and greet before starting walks and was always on time, communicative and provided lots of pics and notes post-walk. Definitely recommend :)”
“I’m extremely happy with the service she provided! Mary was always punctual, reliable, and went above and beyond my expectations. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker!”
About: My name is Thalia and I’m ready to make your pup feel like they’re one of my own. I provide a safe and welcoming environment to make your pet feel right at home. I work from home, so I can be there for your pet daily or weekly. I can provide your pet with frequent potty breaks and walks as well as allow time for play. I always make sure my pets are safe inside my home. Providing them with fresh clean water and a safe place to have their meals. Pets are allowed on the furniture in my home and I have various dog beds throughout my home.
“Sean was terrific! It was the first time I trusted anyone with the boys and I couldn’t be happier! Sean went above and beyond what was asked and expected. Both Jax and Rocky came back from their adventure with such huge smiles on their faces, and I could tell they’re looking forward to the next adventure with him. I highly recommend Sean if you want to be at ease with whom you leave your pets with and open your home to. You won’t regret it. Thank you Sean!!”
“Sarah was wonderful with our dog Cody. He can be a grumpy old doggie but loved walking with her. She is very conscientious, on time and was great at giving him some exercise and love while we were away. We felt very comfortable having Sarah help us with Cody. Thanks Sarah! You are the best!”
“We are very appreciative of Sheylah's care for our two Jack Russells while we were on vacation. It was reassuring to receive visit check-ins and photos, as well as any concerns while we were away. We came home to two happy dogs. Thank you, Sheylah!”
About: I genuinely treat every dog like my own. I’m patient, attentive, active and understand that every dog has different needs, energy levels, and personalities. I am especially comfortable with larger dogs and strong pullers, since I have hands on experience with my own large dog. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone else. I will make sure the owner feels reassured with as many pictures, and check-ins as you desire! Whether your dog loves long walks, or a short neighborhood stroll, cuddle time, playtime, or just a safe environment. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you are away! Boarding availability would be Saturday afternoon-Monday nights! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already have an active lifestyle and spend a lot of time caring for my own dog. I work four days a week as a hairdresser and am fully available Saturdays after 4, all day Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays for walks, drop ins, daycare, or boarding. I love being outdoors and spending time with animals any chance I get, so pet care feels like something I look forward to, not a job. When caring for other pets in my home I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment where they feel part of the family. I have a large dog who loves the company of other dogs and helps create a fun active atmosphere for pets that enjoy social interaction.
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs for my entire life, and I have frequently been asked by neighbors and family friends to care for their furry friends while they are away. I have been consistently petsitting for a family for the past 2-3 years, taking care of their two french bulldogs. I am comfortable with puppies and older dogs, have a car so I can take your furry friends to any dog park/trail that they may be accustomed to, and have flexible availability as I am a college student currently on summer break. I have some light experience training my own puppy with simple commands, and have experience in dealing with pets that have general anxiety/nervousness, as my own dog has been on medication for anxiety before. I'm currently a college student working part-time during the summer with a very flexible schedule! My availability is typically Wednesday-Sunday, however sometimes Fridays are tricky for me. I can drop in any time of the day from 8am to 8pm, and I am flexible on days/times if needed! On Mondays and Tuesdays I am also available for quick midday check ins, quick walks and some play time! Drop-ins consist of potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of snuggles in order to keep your pet happy and healthy while you are away. 30 Minute dog walks consist of a stroll around the neighborhood or at a local trail or park where your dog will get their exercise, mental stimulation, and fresh air for the day.
About: I’ve had my dog for 6 years since she was a puppy. She is house trained and is trained to be out without a leash. She is great with children and other dogs. I’m currently a college student so I have 1-2 classes a day with breaks in between. My classes are only 1-2.5 hours and don’t consume too much of my time. I have a huge fenced in your with more than enough space for a big dog to run around and play and release any stored up energy they might have. I also live in a nice quiet neighborhood that is perfect to go on walks.
About: I've been around dogs all my life, I've had three wonderful family dogs growing up with distinct personalities and needs. I have experience with dogs with special needs such as mobility issues, temperment/reactivity issues, and medication regimes. I dogsat my teacher's epileptic poodle when she couldn't be boarded due to her medication needs, helped my neighbor's basset get around during the last years of his life, walked and played with my other neighbor's golden to get his energy out, gave a much-needed bath to a frail elderly minature when his owner passed away, and nursed a sickly puppy back to health while he was being quarantined in my room away from other pets. I believe dogs are unique like people and they all have different boundaries, comfort levels, personalities, and needs, and the secret to the best pet care is getting to know every individual like they are your own loved one. I work part time three days a week (9am-3pm, tues/weds/sat), so I will be gone for my shift for that six hours if I'm dogsitting on those days! Otherwise, I'm available for services all other times except a couple hours every Sunday for my weekly DnD session :-) I'm very flexible and I'm sure we can figure out a schedule that works for both of us, and your pets! I cannot host pets in my own home due to my own pets, but I'm totally willing to come hang out with your pet at your home! I'll take your lead: Want me to hang out there for hours and keep your pet company? Works for me! Want me to only check in every so often, and only enter parts of the home that I absolutely have to? Also fine! Whatever works for you, I can work around it.
About: As a proud dog owner myself, I bring genuine love and energy to every pet I care for. I understand how important your fur baby is to you, and I treat every dog like my own — with patience, attention, and lots of playtime. Your pup is in great hands! I work part-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility throughout the day to give your pup the attention they deserve. I’m available midday and afternoons, making me a great fit for dogs who need midday check-ins or walks. I live in a cozy 1-bedroom apartment with my own friendly, socialized dog — so your pup will always have a playmate! I keep a safe, pet-proofed space and treat every dog like family.
About: I work full time during the day. Usually home no later than 4pm. I have a 4 yr old labradoodle that loves playing ball but is very timid and skittish so I have plenty of experience with dogs who are also the same Way. I will always make sure your dogs needs come first and treat them like my own. I have experience administering all types of medications as I have a veterinary background and have had a dog with a lot of health issues. I have experience with timid and dog reactive dogs. I currently have the Flex-ability to work from home 3x a week. As well as getting into work early and home by 2pm. Leaving lots of time to be able to enjoy the afternoon for walking not just my own dog but others as well. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. Going out for walks/potty breaks every 3-4 hours. Lots of play time and letting them get to know. It always the key to take it slow and steady. Having a rescue dog myself, we always are patient and cautious as she gets scared and skiddish of things very easily.
About: I have two cats, lily and Iris and they are my babies! I also spent a year dog sitting two sweet girl dogs in my neighborhood. I love spending time outside and getting my steps in, so taking dogs on walks is something I really enjoy! I’m a very caring person and understand that not every dog or cat is the same! They all have special quirks and things they enjoy and I love being able to cater to that and make sure they feel happy and safe. I am entering my final year of grad school and am looking to work this summer and sometimes during the year! I work at my internship during Monday’s and Wednesday’s. I am also taking a few online courses, but I am flexible! I can do drop ins a few times throughout the day :) When I’ve dog sat I enjoy mainly to spend the sunny days outside with a fenced yard so that they are free to get fresh air. When inside I like the pet to be in my site range in case they need to go to the bathroom or are about to either eat or get into something they aren’t supposed to. I have taken a cat outside one time and he had been on a leash within a fenced yard. My own two cats are indoor, though when it’s nice I open a window or door that is screened for them to look outside. I do not believe in using spray to punish or train cats. I think electric collars can sometimes help with keeping a dog in the yard but not always necessary. I am very alert on walks and accommodating play time outside with the weather changes.
“Jaylese was great, always communicating with me when headed over to do a walk, and she used all the features of the app to inform me about the dog’s activities and the walking route taken. Jaylese has a very nice personality, strives to be on time every visit, and she (along with her husband) bonded with my two dogs quickly- it’s clear that they both love animals. I haven’t used a person whom I didn’t know to walk my dogs before, but after meeting Jaylese I handed my keys over to her, and now trust her implicitly to respect my apartment and care for my dogs. PI have no hesitation about recommending her to anyone- and Jaylese will be the first person I reach out to when I need her services again!! ??”
“Laurie is hands down the best! My dog absolutely loves her and looks forward to their walks every day. She’s reliable, kind, and truly cares about the dogs she walks. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in great hands with her. Highly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
“Alana was great with our pup Mando! She was very helpful and even did a little extra the first day when Mando didn't want to go on his first walk without us. Very grateful for her help this week!”
“Laramie was able to accommodate a last minute request. She was so great with our dog Roo, who is very hesitant of new people. She arrived at exactly the time I requested and sent pictures/updates when the walk was done. I would definitely use her again in the future, and would recommend her to others.”

“Yingying took care of my dog really well for the week. My dog Nia has separation anxiety and yingying let her sleep in the bedroom to keep her calm. We really appreciate it.”
“Brenna had an amazing stay at Liz's house! She loved running around the fully fenced yard with Charlie, and Liz was wonderfully communicative so my husband and I knew what Brenna was up to while we were out of town. We also received some great photos that perfectly captured the essence of our curious pup. We would love to book with Liz and Charlie again!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter. Lucille was great! She maintained great contact and was very in tuned to the nuances of each dog. I was thrilled that the dogs got exercise and went on lots of walks! Would definitely use Lucille again!”
“Avery accepted our dog Zeppelin for a last minute trip. She was very attentive, communicative and sent us pics of our beloved family dog. My young kids loved the pictures she sent. If I ever need a sitter again or if anyone asks, I will absolutely recommend Avery for the future!!!”
About: I am a responsible and caring dog owner with hands on experience raising my own Golden Retriever puppy. I understand the importance of feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, basic training, and providing lots of love and attention. I will treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I am reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine and any special care instructions. As a dedicated dog mom to my 6-month-old Golden Retriever, pet care is already part of my daily routine. I plan my day around walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and training. I have a flexible schedule and will make sure your pet gets the same love, attention, and care that I give my own dog. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. As a Golden Retriever owner, I understand how important routine, exercise, and positive attention are. I always follow each owner’s care instructions, keep pets supervised, provide fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of playtime and affection. I will treat your pet like a member of my own family and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.
“Peter and his family took great care of our Boomah. We know he had a blast with them because he almost didn't want to leave their house. I would definitely use him again!”
“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!”
“Ashley was awesome and we loved her. Her communication was fast as it was a last minute reservation. She understood our dogs need and behaviour instantly. She really took very good care of our fur baby. He was very happy and had a great time with Ashley and her dog. We and our fur baby is very happy with Ashley and how she cared for our dog. We would certainly go back to her.”
“We're hapoy to share that Dexter had an amazing 4-night stay with Kavita! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated regularly. What truly impressed us was her attentiveness to Dexter's specific needs - she quickly picked up on his resource guarding issue and handled it with care. Unlike other sitters, Kavita's insight and expertise made all the difference. After 5 years of using various pet care services, we can confidently say this experience was one of the best. We highly recommend Kavita's home as a warm and welcoming haven for your furry friend - it's truly a home away from home!”
“Cherie boarded our two goldendoodles for a weekend. They were very well cared for and came home two happy, tired pups after playing in her beautiful fenced in yard all day. We would highly recommend Cherie and plan to use her services again in the future.”
“Sergio was a perfect fit to watch Winston over the holidays. He kept us up to date everyday with videos which made it a lot easier to be across the country from him! We will be using Sergio again and highly recommend him!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were very happy with the wonderful care Xiaofan provided! Xiaofan is an amazing person and truly cares for animals. Based on this experience we will definitely be booking with Rover again (and hopefully with Xiaofan!)”
“This was our first experience with boarding our 2 year old shepherd and Alyssa made it super easy and was very helpful. Very responsive and knew exactly how to handle her. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Rebeca (and her whole family!) are amazing sitters for our dog, Lucky! We have had Lucky stay with Rebeca for both short and long stays, and to say they take care of her like their own is an understatement! Lucky gets the royal treatment at Rebeca’s, like a member of the family. We are so grateful for the daily pictures, walks, snuggles, and level of care they provide. We would recommend Rebeca as a sitter to anyone!!”
“Tom gave our dog the best of care and she was very happy with him. We loved receiving the photos of our dog chilling next to Tom's older dog. We will definitely book with Tom again.”
“Our dog was in great hands for 4 days over the July 4th holiday weekend! Vanessa was very easy and flexible on drop off and pick up and sent plenty of pictures throughout the boarding time! Beautiful home and neighborhood for all dogs!”
“Wow! Be forewarned; walking in is a little overwhelming. Dogs, cats, birds, fish - and lots of them! It took me off guard at first, until I spent a few minutes and realized this sweet woman is a TRUE PET LOVER who will watch yours with TLC. I was nervous to leave my pup knowing she can be a whiny PITA, but she took Penny with open arms and didn’t even admit that she cried until pickup time. So I was actually able to enjoy my night off. Not to mention she gave me lots of training advice and made herself available to support us anytime. She was so kind, generous, understanding and helpful. Plus the patience of a saint with my dog. Penny had a blast, it was like being at the dog park with a bunch of buddies. I highly recommend Jen!”
