“We are so happy we chose Tom to look after Fluffy. He was very professional and kept us posted with pictures. Fluffy is an anxious dog, but Tom made her feel right at home—even letting her sleep on the bed and hang out on the couch. He also let us do a meet-and-greet the day before, which was very helpful. We will definitely be booking with Tom again.”
“Tanvi and her husband are lovely people. Callie had a wonderful time as was evident in the lovely photos Tanvi was SO considerate in sending us. We WILL be having Callie stay with Tanvi again.”
“We left Keenu with Noria for the whole day. And he loved it. She was very nice and accommodative of my timings (as it was a work day). Her loads of pics and videos about Keenu’s well being were well appreciated throughout the day. We will definitely reach out again to her for our next dog sitting need. Thank you !”
“I simply couldn’t ask for a better home to leave our dog. Lisa is an absolute professional, and the entire family gives Odin so much love, it is incredible. We always look forward to the photos and videos of Odin playing with his buddy Bear, snuggling with the kids, or enjoying a walk. It’s great to know that when we go on vacation, our dog also gets to go on vacation! I am so grateful I found Lisa.”
“Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.”
“Chandar and his family are like a second home and family to Ruth. They truly love dogs and care for Ruth as if she’s their own (she’s already had 3 stays with them). And Ruth loves them, too!! They are so good to her and spoil her with belly rubs and miles-long sunrise and sunset walks. Chandar sends professional grade photos of Ruth with beautiful, artistic, and often charming backdrops (e.g., a hot air balloon, Princeton campus, dog zodiac statute). Chandar’s family is so welcoming, warm, and kind and it’s always a pleasure to see them when we drop off or pick up Ruth. They have also been incredibly accommodating, welcoming Ruth on short notice or letting her stay late. So happy that we met them!”
“Our pup was well taken care of and happy at Tao’s house. I received lots of photos while we were away for 12 days and appreciated the updates. Thank you for taking care of Turbo!”
“Whitney and Mike were so wonderful with my dog, Zhenzhen. They took great care of Zhenzhen, and I think Zhenzhen really enjoyed his time. I received daily updates and photos, which made the whole process very easy. Thank you!!!”
“Barbara was wonderful! It was immediately obvious that she genuinely enjoys caring for dogs. She was very detailed in her engagement, both in person and over the app. All around a very good person. Unfortunately I did not get the opportunity to meet James. Next time hopefully.”
“We joked that with all the attention, love and walks Marty got, we were sure he wouldn’t want to come home! Courtney and her family treated Marty as if he was their own and we received updates and photos of his stay. Will definitely be using her again!!”
“Megan and her husband took wonderful care of our dog Hudson. Megan kept us posted a few times a day with photos and notes on how he was doing during his stay, he was having a blast! Hudson is very attached to us so leaving hom is always hard, but he looked so happy and cozy in their home- it made our time away that much more relaxed!”
“Just picked our dog up from another stay with Melissa and Dan and it’s so clear to us how well cared for and happy he is in their care. We received regular updates and photos throughout our stay which were so helpful. And we can tell he has a great relationship with their family and dogs. Highly recommend.”
“Joanne was great with Bruno. We got plenty of pictures, which made us feel at ease during our trip. We will be booking her again! Smooth meet and greet process as well as drop off/pixkuo.”
“Stefanie was really great with our dog and made the entire experience stress-free. She was incredibly communicative, sending frequent updates and photos of potty breaks, walks, meals, and how he was doing throughout his stay, which gave us great peace of mind. We brought home a happy, healthy pup, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish—we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Stefanie again!”
“Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Emma! She was incredibly responsive from the start and sent so many updates throughout my pup’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I don’t trust many people with my dog, but I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such great hands. My pup can be a little shy in new environments, and she was so patient, taking the time to help her feel comfortable. Her dog was an absolute angel! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“Corey and his family took wonderful care of our pups. Both are very shy girls but we could see from the daily pics we received that they were settled in and enjoying their stay.”
“Ahmad and Janelle are super friendly and welcoming of my two dogs. I love that they have a dog park right in their complex and my pups could run and play. I look forward to working with them again soon.”

“Frida was wonderful with our very shy cat! She tried for 2 days to get him to come out and play and on the third day he did! He played and let her pet him which means he was one happy cat! Frida took good care of him and our house, we highly recommend her and would welcome her back anytime.”
“Andrea was amazing at keeping my moody cat over the weekend! Super accommodating as well when my flight home was delayed by three hours. Highly recommend!! Thanks Andrea”
“Our fur babies were in great hands with Brittany! She was able to get both kitties out for meal time, play time, and pets. She was very punctual, communicative and went above and beyond to make sure the kitties were well taken care of while we were away. Will 100% reach out again!”
“Holly is very responsible, cat loving, and knowing person. She complied with a schedule. Our two cats accepted her from day one. We recommend Holly, and will call her in the future.”
“Alexis was a phenomenal sitter! She watched our cat, Miso, for a week while we were on vacation. She spent substantial time playing with and caring for him, and she sent thoughtful updates each day. I could tell Miso grew incredibly comfortable in her presence. Also, she kindly swept and brought in packages for us, which was by no means expected but shows the extra care she puts into her clients. I highly recommend her and will certainly be booking her again in the future!”
“Xingcheng (Connie) looked after my two boys, Bobby and Jack, for 14 days while I was traveling, and she is hands-down the most reliable and best cat sitter I have ever had! She connected with them instantly, played with them regularly, and sent me tons of daily pictures and videos. I always felt completely at ease knowing they were in such excellent care. She gave me regular updates on their food and kept the litter box spotlessly clean. Communication was fantastic throughout the entire stay, so I always knew exactly how they were doing. I will definitely book with Connie again and highly recommend her!”
About: I have enthusiastically taken care of friends’, roommates’ and family’s cats since college. Since I’ve lived with cats, I have a good understanding of body language, feeding, stimulation, and any signs of pain or illness. I am happy to devote this knowledge to taking care, playing with, or feeding your beloved pet.
“Sha did such a wonderful job with Doja (my cat). Lots of photos and updates and Doja seemed really happy! She does a wonderful job and really cares about the pets she watches”
“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Ella is excellent. She took good care of my two cats when I was traveling outside the country and she maintained good communication with me, so I know my cats were doing well when I was away.”
“Kriti has been taking care of my cat for the past year now every time we are travelling. I love the rover cards she sends that are detailed around her feedings and bowel movements. She also plays with her and gets her energy out. She follows all instructions. Finding Kriti has made going on trips and leaving our cat home in the care of Kriti a lot easier. We truly appreciate her.”
About: I worked at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine as an ICU and neurology veterinary nurse. I also worked with the feline kidney recipients and donors and the cat blood bank. I have 3 cats of my own, dogs and a fish. I can administer medications and have experience with seniors and kittens as well as cats with ambulatory challenges. My life has been dedicated to pet care and look forward to bringing companionship and care for your kitties!
“Megan always does an awesome job with all of our 5 cats and fish! She leaves us notes and pictures and lets us know how everything is going, which makes us feel very secure while we are away. Thanks Megan!”
“Victoria was a fantastic sitter! She communicated daily on how my cat was doing, was detailed with her communications, and was overall very friendly. I would highly recommend her and would definitely book her again.”
“Thanks Heidi for her great care of our cat Max again that gives us a peace of mind when we are away from home. Our cat loves her and apparently enjoyed her kind and careful care every day.”
About: Cats have a very special place in my heart, and I know that each cat has their own personality and needs. I’ve fostered 8 cats, caring for all personalities, ages, and needs, from kittens under 8 weeks old to senior cats. I’ve worked with cats that need medication, were overweight or underweight, required special diets, were scared and under socialized, or just needed extra patience and time to adjust to new people and a new environments. I’ve had lots of experience with cats who scratch or bite out of fear, so I have no problem taking the time to earn their trust at their own pace. I also have two cats of my own, and they were both very shy and nervous at first. After taking the time to build their confidence, they have become the most cuddly and trusting cats. I’m also the trusted sitter for many of my friends and family, so I’m comfortable looking after cats that have different routines and care needs. I’ll respect their boundaries and keep them on their normal routine, giving them the attention and love they deserve. My goal is to make your cat feel as relaxed and cared for as possible while you’re away, sending you lots of pictures and videos!
About: I have taken care of neighbor's cats since I was 12, providing meals, medicine and love. I have had my own dog for 9 years who I also care for. I volunteered at SAVE animal shelter for 3 years taking care of cats. I just graduated high school so I am free this entire summer before I leave for college in the beginning of September 2026. I work at the YMCA on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4-7 but am free the rest of the week. I can easily take care of the pet in my clients home. I have experience doing so; cleaning litter boxes, taking care of the house, cleaning up messes, and more. I can water plants or provide any other house services while the owners are away.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and former fur mom to my beloved Morkie, who was part of my family for 14.5 wonderful years until she passed away in 2023. I currently work from home most days, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I’m also an experienced dog aunt and have been puppy-sitting my Golden Retriever “fur niece” for the past year, giving me recent experience with larger, energetic dogs as well. I’m a mom of two boys, ages 3 and 7, who are in school and daycare during the day. They have grown up around dogs and are gentle, loving, and respectful of animals. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet because I’ve been in your shoes. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where your furry family member feels at home while you’re away. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own—with lots of love, attention, and belly rubs! What you can expect from me: 🐾 Plenty of supervision due to my work-from-home schedule 🐾 Regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles 🐾 Experience caring for both small and large dogs 🐾 Updates and photos so you can feel connected while you’re away 🐾 A calm, loving, family-oriented environment I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the care and affection they deserve! ❤️🐾 I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of companionship. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I enjoy having furry company while I work. Your pet will receive lots of supervision, love, and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. Safety is my top priority. My home was always dog-proofed when I had my Morkie, and I continue to puppy-proof it whenever my Golden Retriever fur niece stays with us. I make sure there isn’t anything pets can get into that could be unsafe, and I have a dog gate available to create secure spaces when needed. I provide a clean, supervised, and loving environment where pets are treated like family and can feel safe and comfortable while in my care. 🐾❤️
About: I grew up caring for my family's black labs my entire life. I currently own two beautiful baby Shih Tzus, Tony & Guiness with my beautiful girlfriend. They add so much joy to our lives and are a big part of our growing family. I invest a lot of time and effort into training them daily, to build trust and give them the best lives possible. Taking care of the animals in my life is a passion of mine, and I treat every pet like it's my own. I'm currently making pet care my full time job. After years of training athletes, I'm opting for a career that is rewarding in different ways. I'm available any time Monday through and occasionally a weekend if I'm around and if it's a good fit. My apartment complex has many areas to walk outside, with sidewalks and open grass areas where I walk my boys. There is also a spacious indoor dog park in the basement of my complex where I take them to play, especially on rainy days. We do training both indoors and on walks outside, individually and as a family. I also expose my dogs to as many experiences as possible, bringing them to community events, outdoor dining, and social gatherings. Our family does not believe in leaving pets home alone all day every day, and want to give them as much stimulation and social interaction as possible.

I would definitely use her again if I’m in the area and highly recommend her to anyone looking!”

“James is my daycare angel and I am so relieved to find just the right person for my senior dog. I travel to NJ for work and bring Bandit with me when I can. He loves traveling but when I am in all day meetings/dinners it is not usually possible. James was so flexible I did not have to stress about drop off/pick up times, he was super responsive, and Bandit was totally comfortable with him. Now I can bring him every trip and use James for those occasions I need help.”
“Josephine’s first stay with Pardeep was seamless. Pardeep was very accommodating with my schedule and provided a safe, calm, enjoyable day for Jo. He kept me up to date on her as the day went on and that is always reassuring. His dogs were friendly and respectful which I greatly appreciate due to Josephine being a senior. I would gladly recommend him and will seek his care for Josephine again soon.”
“This was not only my first time with Julissa but my first time using Rover. Wow did she make an amazing impression! My puppy Luna loves her! She was very response and immediately replied to any questions I had, or If I was just checking in. She was timely having everything ready for drop off and pick up. She followed my instructions for a puppy that has stomach problems. Not to mention she sent pictures of my puppy throughout the day which was so thoughtful. I picked up a tired happy pup! Will definitely be using Julissa in the near future!”

“Whitney & Michael were fantastic even with changes to the booking and unforeseen circumstances with my work day. They were extremely accommodating, communicated well and were thoughtful/understanding. They sent photos of Isla and she had a great stay. I will book with them in the near future!”
“Megan went way above and beyond what was expected. She is a great communicator and I knew that my giant baby of a dog was in great hands so I was really able to enjoy my time. Megan was very pleasant and easy to deal with, I highly recommend her! A++++.”
About: I have lots of experience with dogs and absolutely love spending time with them — playing, teaching tricks, and taking them on walks. I grew up around dogs and have a real passion for it! I only take one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention and focus throughout the stay. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can walk your dog in the early morning, during lunch, and in the late afternoon/evening — basically as needed throughout the day. I live in a house with my sweet two-year-old daughter, who is gentle and great with animals (no grabbing or rough play!). Because of this, I’m looking to care for friendly, calm dogs who are comfortable around kids. If your pup fits that description, I’d love to give them a fun, attentive stay full of walks, play, and maybe even a new trick or two!

“I've been using Yana for the past few weeks because I had to pull my dog out of daycare due to her needing surgery and I can honestly tell you between her flexibility and transparency, Yana has been a great addition to my dogs' life. Her responsive nature and amazing ability to connect with my dogs has been a godsend for me. She is so responsive and I appreciate her report cards so much. My one dog is very reactive and doesn't trust people easily to the fact that she took to Yana so well is amazing. Highly recommend her.”

“Brianna was very kind to my dogs and made sure I came home to no accidents! With the warm weather we’ve been having she was kind enough to modify our walking routine to make sure the dogs were comfortable, has followed typical feeding schedules, and adjusted to my youngest dog’s needs through his medical issues. I am happy to recommend her as a reliable pet sitter for anyone in need”
“I’ve had a great experience with Ronit so far! She came to our house for an initial meet and greet so she could get to know Rooney and make sure it was a good fit. Rooney can be a little territorial with new people in the house, and I really appreciated how calm and patient she was with him. She let him investigate her and get comfortable before trying to interact with him and never rushed him. When she came back for his first walk the following week, everything went great! She said Rooney was a very good boy, and he seems to have accepted her already. 😊 It gives me a lot of peace of mind knowing he’s with someone who understands dogs and took the time to earn his trust. I’m very happy we found Ronit and would definitely recommend her!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’ve fostered 8 cats and 1 dog to date, helping them adjust to new environments and getting them ready for their forever home. I also have two cats of my own and two family cats, so I understand the care, attention, and patience they need. I’m also the go to pet sitter for my friends whenever they’re away. I’m also a certified sitter through Southeastern Guide Dogs, where I’ve cared for and trained puppies and service dogs in training. This has really shown me how to work with dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I know every pet is unique and I really take the time to understand their needs and personality. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for, giving you peace of mind and lots of pictures while you’re away! I recently graduated, so I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate my time to caring for pets.

About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for a 60 lb Labrador Retriever, whom I raised from puppyhood. During that time, I learned how to understand dog behavior, body language, exercise needs, and daily routines at every stage of life. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has its own unique personality. I take the time to build trust, whether a pet is playful, shy, or needs extra patience. Although I no longer have my Labrador, the experience gave me a strong foundation in responsible pet care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, following each owner’s instructions carefully to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m a faculty at Rutgers, and most of my teaching is online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time at home. This makes it easy for me to provide pets with regular attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I plan my schedule to ensure every pet in my care receives consistent supervision and the care they need. I live in a clean, pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment near downtown New Brunswick. I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable, and calm environment where they can relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to help reduce stress. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and regular updates with photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe and well cared for.
About: I am reliable and on time, I have taken care of house animals to farm animals and love them all. If you are away for several hours or need a late night check in, I’m your guy. I currently work Sunday to Wednesday 6am to 6pm and available 7pm to Midnight. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday I am available most hours. Please feel free to reach out.

“Another successful walk with Mocha, yay !!! Mocha recognized her immediately and was super excited to head out for his walk. He came home content and happy, took a little nap and was relaxed. Thank you Diana for your help with Mocha. See you soon 😊”
“Tracy’s been walking walking Bowser for six weeks now and I couldn’t be happier. She always takes him for a full half-hour walk and takes the cutest pictures of him that always make my day. She’s very attentive and will always message me if she sees something is off or thinks he may not be feeling well. I can see the difference in Bowser on the days she walks him, as much of his usual endless crazy energy has been used up and he’ll just chill out on the couch with me and my husband. We love Tracy and would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”

“I simply couldn’t ask for a better home to leave our dog. Lisa is an absolute professional, and the entire family gives Odin so much love, it is incredible. We always look forward to the photos and videos of Odin playing with his buddy Bear, snuggling with the kids, or enjoying a walk. It’s great to know that when we go on vacation, our dog also gets to go on vacation! I am so grateful I found Lisa.”
“Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.”
“Chandar and his family are like a second home and family to Ruth. They truly love dogs and care for Ruth as if she’s their own (she’s already had 3 stays with them). And Ruth loves them, too!! They are so good to her and spoil her with belly rubs and miles-long sunrise and sunset walks. Chandar sends professional grade photos of Ruth with beautiful, artistic, and often charming backdrops (e.g., a hot air balloon, Princeton campus, dog zodiac statute). Chandar’s family is so welcoming, warm, and kind and it’s always a pleasure to see them when we drop off or pick up Ruth. They have also been incredibly accommodating, welcoming Ruth on short notice or letting her stay late. So happy that we met them!”
“Whitney and Mike were so wonderful with my dog, Zhenzhen. They took great care of Zhenzhen, and I think Zhenzhen really enjoyed his time. I received daily updates and photos, which made the whole process very easy. Thank you!!!”
“Barbara was wonderful! It was immediately obvious that she genuinely enjoys caring for dogs. She was very detailed in her engagement, both in person and over the app. All around a very good person. Unfortunately I did not get the opportunity to meet James. Next time hopefully.”
“Just picked our dog up from another stay with Melissa and Dan and it’s so clear to us how well cared for and happy he is in their care. We received regular updates and photos throughout our stay which were so helpful. And we can tell he has a great relationship with their family and dogs. Highly recommend.”
“Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Emma! She was incredibly responsive from the start and sent so many updates throughout my pup’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I don’t trust many people with my dog, but I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such great hands. My pup can be a little shy in new environments, and she was so patient, taking the time to help her feel comfortable. Her dog was an absolute angel! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“Corey and his family took wonderful care of our pups. Both are very shy girls but we could see from the daily pics we received that they were settled in and enjoying their stay.”
“Ahmad and Janelle are super friendly and welcoming of my two dogs. I love that they have a dog park right in their complex and my pups could run and play. I look forward to working with them again soon.”
“This was Bogart's first stay with Anita, James and their family including Molly the lab, of course. We hope he'll be welcomed back. From the start, Anita and family made every effort to make Bogie feel at home and, from the many pictures Anita sent, he took full advantage. Bogie is blind and has an autoimmune condition that has a fairly structured medication schedule... no beat was missed. We picked up a happy, relaxed and intact (given his needs) dog and that makes us extremely happy. Thanks so much Anita, Jim and family. It was so nice to thoroughly enjoy our trip knowing Bogart was in very good hands.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with Alexis. She did a great job communicating and I could tell when I picked up my dog that she loved it at Alexis’s house. We appreciated the fact that Alexis only cares for one family’s pets at a time. That meant that our 8 yr old girl had a nice calm time while we were away.”
“Jason was attentive and attuned to Fennel and sent us lots of pictures across his extended weekend stay. He has a lovely house and wonderful large fenced yard for the pups to play in. We’d board Fennel again with him next time we fly out of Newark!”
“Kathleen was more than accommodating to my dog axel. She took us on as a last minute booking and communicated with us for axels entire stay! She sent tons of pictures and axel genuinely looked so happy to be there. He loved running in her big back yard and going on nice walks with her everyday. She had tons of toys for him to play with as well. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be using her again! We are so glad we found her.”
“Very happy with Savi! This was my first time leaving my dog Zola anywhere. She started with day care and then spent almost a week with Savi. I was updated daily with photos and videos. I knew Zola was in great hands. Leaving your dog at a new place can be anxiety-provoking for both owner and dog, but I actually felt calm and reassured with Savi. Highly recommend!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot say enough wonderful things about Thana and Subangi. They stepped in during a true emergency involving my elderly mother, and their kindness and flexibility meant more to me than I can express. They picked up Gigi right away and kept her for as long as we needed, completely removing one major worry from an already stressful situation. From the very beginning, they were in constant contact — sending thoughtful updates, pictures, and videos that reassured me Gigi was safe, comfortable, and happy. What stood out most was how genuinely they welcomed her into their home as if she were their own dog. You could see in every photo how relaxed and loved she felt. That level of warmth and care is rare. If you are looking for responsible, compassionate, and communicative dog sitters, Thana and Subangi are truly exceptional. I would trust them again in a heartbeat. 💛🐾”
“Rachel is absolutely amazing. My Jessie was happy and she took care of her with so much love and attention. She was great with keeping me updated and was very warm and inviting. I will be using her again for all my boarding. Thank you Rachel!!!”
“Bhavani and family took care of our Diesel during holiday season (9 days). Our Diesel is a large (lab) puppy with extra energy. She did a great job and I highly recommend her. She was quick to respond and very accommodating. She even helped navigate the app( for first timer like me) and from the beginning of setting up the meet and greet visit to until the last day, she was prompt in communicating, shared pictures and videos daily, followed the instructions. Bhavani family loved and cared for our Diesel like it their own. Did not bother us with anything, just shared pictures and videos which gave us peace of mind and confidence to enjoy our vacation. Her home is safe for pets and she really has the experience to handle them. I will use her service again in future ( although it is an hour away drive for us) because safety and happiness of our fur babies comes first. I highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you Bhavani.”
