“Susie was amazing with Milo. We met her with Milo a couple of days before the appointment, and we were amazed to see how quickly Milo got comfortable with the new environment because she knew exactly what Milo needed. So he had a good time there and came back home smiling. Wouldn't hesitate to book again!”
“Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊”
“Our 6 month black lab had a ball at Odalis' house. Her kids kept him going and he came home dead on his feet in the best way. She was responsive and unfazed by his puppy antics, which was lovely. Highly recommend using Odalis, if you can.”
“My dogs LOVED their stay at Heather and Roberto's place!! We received pictures every day, they loved exploring the back yard, and most importantly they came home happy :))”
“Our girl Mali had another wonderful visit with Damon. He picked her up after we left early in the morning and sent us a confirmation photo from the car of her happy face to let us know she was safely in his care. We received another video later of her, Damon’s dog and another border playing happily in the very large fenced back yard. We never have a worry when Mali is in Damon’s care. He is attentive snd it is obvious by how she responds to him that he gives her as. Much love and attention as we do, and the built in play mates are wonderful for her as well!”
“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”

“Angela was an amazing dog sitter! We left our fur baby with her during our long vacation. She updated me every day with pictures and how Winston was doing. Great experience!”
“This was my first time trying out DogVacay and I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant and convenient experience. It was a day before I was leaving town and Shawna was more than happy to take Wally (9 month corgi/chihuahua pup) in for the weekend. The drop off/pick up times corresponded with my schedule and updates were fantastic. I would recommend anyone in the DTLA area to drop of their dog for boarding.”
“Dottie was great to work with when we reached out on short notice in search of care for our pomsky. She provides a great environment for the pups according to their needs (and our dog is needy) to make them feel safe and comfortable. She was great at asking questions on some of the details we had mentioned in our instructions and we loved getting daily updates. She also has a great sense of humor which is always a plus when we were messaging each other on how things were going. It was such a comfort knowing our dog was in great care while we were away. We will definitely be using Dottie again!”
“Laura watched my little 8 month Pomeranian girl puppy and everything went well. We had a meet and great a couple weeks ahead so she could meet my little pup and meet her two dogs as well they all got along fine and during her time there Tova, my pup had so much fun and I could tell she took real good care of her, sent me a few pics most of time I was not on WiFi. I would have her watch my little girl again.”
“Liz was exceptional! Our pup had an excellent stay and was so well taken care of. She was so flexible and accommodating when we had to make a few different time changes. We would 100% book with Liz again!”
“Jalyssa is everything you want in a pet sitter. She's very accommodating and had no issues when I changed plans around. My anxious kitty did great with her and even opened up and enjoyed her time there. Would recommend”
“Paige & David did a wonderful job watching my dog. They are extremely welcoming and ready to make your pet feel at home with their family. Communication was excellent and consistent. Would use again!”
“Keelan & Sabrina take wonderful care of Rosie. I am so grateful for their kindness and patience with her. Rosie seems to enjoy her visits with Keelan & Sabrina. She comes home happy and exhausted, just perfect.”

“It was Bella’s first time staying here, and she had such a great time. I felt so happy and reassured knowing she was in good hands. Thank you for taking great care of her”
“Abe is just the best dog sitter. He truly cares for dogs and is great with them. My dog adores hanging with Abe. He whines when we drive by and gets sad when we have not stopped. Abe has been watching my pup since we was 7 months old. Abe has been so patient with him. Abe helps me be a better dog mom for sure because he's so knowledgeable.”

“J Does a great job with my pup and yesterday was super helpful because she drilled him on his commands and helped get some kongs prepped. J is reliable and communicates well.”
“Gretchen is wonderful! When one of my cats didn’t come out while she was there, she showed true concern and took extra time to look through the house and yard to make sure everything was okay. I really appreciate the care and attention she gives, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing my pets are in her hands.”
“Alyssa was amazing! She was thoughtful in her preparation visit, asking good questions to be prepared for any situation. During the visits, she spent a lot of time with our two cats and was good at respecting their personalities, working well with the social one and our less social one. We appreciated the detailed daily updates and pictures! She was also kind enough to water some outdoor flowers and left a newtoy for our cats! They will definitely be looking forward to seeing her again soon!”
“Dannielle is a prodigy/wonder (or an S-tier, for you Gen-Zers). She has a level of care/commitment to her task that is genuine, and she absolutely invests herself in making sure the cats in her care are safe both physically and even emotionally. There's a real desire to care for them. My two cats are neurotic (shocker, I guess that's all cats, maybe?) who don't take to new people too well, and get reaaaalllly off kilter when I'm gone for an extended period. She gained their trust quickly, and towards the end of her stretch, they were all just hanging out like three cool cats.”
“Sydney took excellent care of my cats! She spent time giving them extra attention with toys, treats, brushing and pets. I loved receiving pictures from each visit and an update for the day. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“We were happy to have found Annalei to take care of our two cats in our home while we were on holiday. She had excellent communication, and the cats were in great shape when we returned. Would recommend!”
“Samantha was awesome with our cats! We have 3 and all of them seemed to really love her. She did a great job watching them while we were away for the weekend and we will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Danielle took great care of Eva and Johnny while I was out of town. She was communicative and showed that my cats were in great hands. She was also great at giving action shots during check-ins. I would highly recommend booking her as a sitter if you get the chance!”
“Thank you Veronica! Arrived home from my journey and found everything in order and a kitty cat that was eager to see me, but was clearly taken care of in my absence. Will definitely seek to reenlist Veronica for future journeys”
“Melissa took great care of my cat Finn! Super communicative, she sent lots of pictures and videos so I was assured he was happy and cared for. Knowing she was the one looking after him kept my mind at ease.”
“Heather was amazing with our cats, playing with them, making sure they were fed, watered, and had a clean litter box. She sent daily emails with tons of pictures. Will definitely book again!”
“Hannah was a great sitter for my 2 cats while I was out of town. They both liked her right away, and she sent me many cute pictures of them looking happy and safe. Hannah was always communicative, responsible, and very pleasant to work with. I will definitely ask her to watch my cats for me again and would recommend her to others as well!”
“Rylie took amazing care of our two cats while we were in Europe for 9 days. Even got our very shy cat to hang out with her and gave them both ample playtime and attention. Boxes were scooped and house was in good shape when we got home as well. 10/10 will book again!”
“Kat was fantastic with my cat, forest. She was caring, kind, and communicative. I felt confident the entire time that forest would be well taken care of. I will go back to Kat in the future! Thank you!”
“Stacy has cared for my cats quite a few times over the past year and a half. She is reliable, accurate with medications, and spends time playing with them. I trust her and will continue to use her services when I go away.”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Damon has been a life saver for my daycare needs. He is reliable, personable, and communicative. I work full time and have an active GSD who needs adequate mental stimulation and play. By the time I pick her up, she’s ready to eat and relax for the rest of the evening. He has a spacious and clean backyard for the dogs to roam/play around in without it feeling too crowded. I always get pics and updates thru out the day to make me feel reassured she’s safe and having a great time. Would absolutely recommend Damon and his services.”
“Tommy provided great support for our puppy while I was on a long vacation. We appreciated his flexibility and thoughtfulness when it came to balancing her needs and wants.”
“London had a wonderful time with Hanna, Matthew, and his new furry friends! He was clearly having a blast — he was excited to see me at pickup, but also totally torn about leaving all his playmates, which was pretty adorable. He came home happily worn out, which is always the sign of a great day. As a bonus, they’re only 6 minutes from me, which makes drop-off and pickup so easy. I’d absolutely reach out to them again if I need a pet-sitter in the future!”
“The perfect experience for an old dog with some extra medical needs! Peter was responsive, flexible and so caring with my boy! During pick up, it was clear how much Guinness enjoyed his time as he came out to say hello to me and then promptly turned around to try and go back into Peter’s house which is pretty much the best sign you can get! So happy to have a great option for daycare and boarding!”
“Rebecca is the Best. She was a perfect match for my Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I will be booking with her again and hope she is available. She’s knowledgeable and attentive. Thank you Rebecca.”
“Barbara is an excellent dog sitter, my dog Caleb absolutely loves coming and seeing her and her wonderful dogs every month for a couple days. She’s compassionate and very kind and caring, I would recommend her to anyone seeking daycare, 10 out of 5 stars rating!!”
“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi! From day one, it was clear how genuinely caring, patient, and attentive she is with my puppy Lucy. She treats her like her own, making sure she’s safe, happy, well-exercised, and loved. I always receive great updates and photos, which gives me total peace of mind knowing Lucy is in such good hands. Her reliability, communication, and obvious love for dogs truly sets her apart. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog—especially puppies!”
“Mersal was a great communicator (clear, friendly, quick responses) and our high-energy husky shepherd mix had a blast with her for the day. Our goal was for our pup to get to play and have fun all day and Mersal and her dogs delivered! We loved receiving multiple photos and videos of all the fun. Will definitely book again!”
“Hannah and Blake are absolutely incredible! Ollie has become quite the regular at doggy daycare and he loves his time there so much! He always comes home happy and worn out, which also makes for a happy mama. :) Hannah and Blake also took Ollie very last minute when I had a work issue come up and were so gracious about the whole thing. Highly highly highly recommend!”
“Sarah was a great sitter for my dog Rosie. Rosie was so excited to come back every morning for daycare, and Rosie and Ellie were fast friends. We will definitely book with Sarah again in the future!”
“Louise was such a wonderful sitter for my dog Atlas for the day. Her home was the perfect landing spot for him, there was a beautiful backyard to play in! She has a very welcoming personality and I will definitely book with her again in the future :).”
“Jax had a blast with his buddies at “Uncle Allen’s” (not Allen’s name for himself). Just the exercise and socialization he wants and needs. We’re so grateful for this resource.”
“Jami was amazing and helped us out with a last minute work trip! She was flexible and did incredible hikes and outings with our dogs. They were so happy to be with Jami!”
“I wanted to write another review because Melani continues to go above and beyond in every possible way. After many more stays, I can honestly say she is one of those rare people you feel incredibly lucky to find. My dog does not just enjoy being with her, he genuinely lights up when he sees her, which says everything. Melani is not only dependable and communicative, but she is also so thoughtful and intuitive when it comes to my dog’s needs. She pays attention to the little things, keeps me consistently updated, and always makes sure he feels loved, safe, and comfortable. It gives me total peace of mind knowing he is in such capable and caring hands. She has become such an important part of our routine, and I truly cannot imagine trusting anyone else the way I trust her. If you are considering Melani, do not hesitate, she is everything you could hope for and more. The full package!”

About: Having grown up on a 20 acre farm for most of my life, I have cared for all shapes and sizes of animals - from horses to snakes, and everything in between! When I moved into an apartment for college, I missed the "dog energy" in our household and set to volunteering hundreds of hours at the Humane Society, which also included basic training skills and walking the most aggressive 100+lb leash pullers. This later evolved into working at a veterinary clinic where I was trained to monitor recovering animals and administer medications safely and with as little stress as possible through Fear Free certification. Animal body language is my second language! I love the outdoors as much as the indoors, and am more than happy to accommodate medical needs. ♡ If you would like extras taken care of during your pets stay or our visit, such as bathing, grooming, nail trims, or a run, just let me know! My dog, Leo, and I are constantly going on hikes and we are more than happy to tucker your pups out with a day trip, just reach out for rates. I currently work as a Braille Librarian for the state and used to teach Low Vision/Blind learners, and I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), so I have a soft spot for dogs that may be Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind. To top it all off, I am working on weaseling my way into Guide Dog puppy raising, and all the training tips that come along with that. ( : I commute to Salem Wednesday and Friday, which means my schedule during those days is usually pretty limited to anything after 430pm. Otherwise, my weekends are typically completely free and ready to be filled with whatever your fur babies need! Using the Fear Free method, I work with a pet's body language to determine what will work best in the current situation, and when methods may be effective versus stressful. I am ready to go at your pet's pace with whatever they may need, and clearly communicate the process along the way.
“Jeannine was great with my dog, who can sometimes be reactive around other dogs. I immediately felt very comfortable and my dog was a happy girl after her walk. Looking forward to using her again.”
“Annalei is great at communicating information and responds very quickly to messages. It had been a while since our pup had been walked by someone other than us but our dog recognized Annalei right away from a few years ago and eagerly went on a walk with her. Annalei is very kind and patient and we felt so comfortable (and grateful she came all the way back to our neighborhood) to walk our dog.”
“Stephen was absolutely amazing with Cosmo! From the moment they headed out, it was clear he was patient, attentive, and really understood Cosmo’s personality. He handled him confidently on the walk, kept him engaged, and made sure he was safe and happy the entire time. Cosmo came back relaxed and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciate Stephen’s professionalism and kindness he went above and beyond, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, fantastic dog walker.”
“Liz is great with my 🐶, even with short notice she was able to accommodate a walk for poppie, she always updates me on how my 🐕🦺 is doing and sends pictures of my 🐕🦺on their walk. Thank you Liz😀”
“Amir did an amazing job taking care of our dog Yoshi! I knew right away from the meet and greet that he was going to be a great fit. He has a very calm energy and it was the perfect vibe for our Shiba. he was very communicative throughout the time we were out of town which put us at ease. 10/10 I would have Amir take care Yoshi again.”
“Katlyn was wonderful and our Golden was so happy with her. She was punctual and communicated clearly with us. Our Golden is large and she handled him so well. We will definitely hire her in the future!”
“I really struggle to trust people with my dog, but had a good feeling about Bridget. She has followed all instructions and I’ve very much appreciated her updates. I come home to a happy boy every day so I know he is well taken care of! It’s given me a ton of peace of mind. Definitely will continue to have her walk him until she can’t anymore!”
“Bridget is a true animal lover! And she will replace used pee pads with fresh ones before she leaves! I feel so relieved having her take care of my two girls! And they love her!!!”

This was our first time leaving him with a sitter, and she was so personable, kind, and communicative that she immediately put us at ease. She sent us lots of updates and adorable pictures throughout his stay, which we really appreciated and made being away from him so much easier. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and treated him like her own. We came home to a very happy, well-loved dog! We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again. Thank you, Siru!”
“Alysia took care of our paralyzed dog…she contracted coon-hound this summer and is temporarily paralyzed and it has been a heartbreaking experience for us all to watch how slow and long the recovery will be and she gave a much desperately needed vacation. Our Ruby was loved on the entire time and came home happy!”
“Katie could not be any kinder or thoughtful to us, the pet parents. The way Lemmy acts around her makes us feel like she treats him the same way. He gets lots of outdoor time with Katie and always comes home pooped. Lemmy is a reactive rescue and Katie has the perfect personality to handle him and is helping to socialize him more. Thank you Katie, we all love you!”
“This is the 3rd time Hannah and her husband have watched my big pup and he just absolutely adores them! Soon as I turn on their street my fur baby gets so excited! Communication with them is always great and fast! I can never get enough of the picture mail either! So many great photos! This is a very loving family & it shows through the care they give our dogs! I literally only book then when we I need a dog sitter because I travel a ton. No matter if it’s 5 day stay or 11 days I know dog will be very well taken care of when he’s in their hands. My last dog sitter before them was negligent and lead to my dog being hit by s car an injured severely so I was very hesitant with someone new at first. But now I literally trust only them when it comes to taking care of my dog. I will be contacting them any and everytime! BOOK BOOK BOOK!!”
“Tammy was an exceptional dog sitter for our dog, Rusty. Rusty is very anxious and often struggles with meeting new people. Within the first day, it was clear that Tammy quickly earned his trust and love. We felt at ease during our trip that he was well cared for and happy. We appreciated her daily updates. 100% would recommend.”
“Alexis and Jacob were very friendly. I think they took great care of LeeLoo. She seemed very relaxed with them. I will definitely use them next time we need a sitter.”

“Lyssette and family took great care of Gracie while we were away. She checked in with pictures and videos to keep us aware of how things were going. Looking forward future stays w Lyssette!”
