“Hong was great with our energetic 14-month old pup, Archie! Hong took Archie for multiple walks in the woods and dog park visits each day, and sent us photos and videos. We could tell that Archie was having a great time, and that the experiences were very enriching. Archie can have anxiety around new people, especially men, but he really seemed to bond to Hong which was great to see. Archie was totally relaxed when we picked him up, and seemed just as happy to stay at Hong’s house as to get in the car. We cannot recommend Hong highly enough!”

“Jieming and his wife are excitement with taking care of my dog and keeping me updated each day. They love dogs and have my dog plenty of walks outside and the move inside! Highly recommend them to ever.”

“We went on vacation for a week and Obi had a wonderful stay with Barbara and Jen. He stayed active and played with other dogs. Obi is sometimes a picky eater and they managed really well.”
“Absolutely fabulous! Robert and his family took the best possible care of my dog, and provided lots of love and belly rubs. He sent pictures twice a day which we looked forward to. Couldn’t not have been a better experience for my dog and for us. ❤️🐕🦺❤️”

“François was absolutely fantastic. He went over our routine with Atlas and took Atlas for multiple long walks - Atlas was in heaven. François kept us up-to-date on their activities together and was easy to communicate with!”

“Yu is great! She gives frequent and consistent updates with photos and videos. She was very patient with my 2 cats who are very shy and it is clear that she cared for them well and made them feel at home.”

“Sean was awesome! He was so easy to work with and amazing with the dogs! He took both our dogs on daily hikes and they socialized with many dogs (up to 10 daily)! We will definitely book with Sean again and highly recommend him.”

“We are so grateful to March and his family for taking great care of Billie while we were away. March was extremely communicative and it was very clear from his messages and photos that Billie was very well cared for and happy. We’ve already booked him for our next trip!”


“Wow - Kira made everything go so smoothly with dog care! She made herself available and was extremely flexible during a time where we needed it the most - the arrival of our new baby! She is reliable, communicative and someone I trust to care for my dogs. She makes it easy and having someone who I know is responsible to follow through on the best care for my dogs is all I could ask for as I went into labor! It felt like Kira was on baby watch with me and we put together a plan to ensure everything went smoothly. Thank you so much to you and your family for caring and going the extra mile!”


“Appreciate Paul’s attentive care to our 8-month old puppy and his honest feedback about how he was doing. Took him a bit to settle in but Paul was very patient and Timber clearly enjoyed his stay. Thanks Paul!”

“We couldn’t have had a better experience with Betsy and her family taking care of our furry guy. He had such a wonderful time and we received frequent updates with photos. Her kids told us stories about him when we picked him up- they made him feel like part of the family. We hope to have him stay with them again!”

“We recently left our pup with Oana and Oliver for 1.5 weeks and couldn’t be happier. We know that our slightly high maintenance dog is in good hands, from feeding to play to snuggles. It’s a huge relief to have found such awesome caregivers- always quick to communicate, consistent with pics and updates, and so caring about all the pups hanging at their house!”

“Pamela was a fantastic caregiver for our dog, Elke. I got regular updates and photos while we were away. She even went the extra mile and replaced a harness that Elke chewed when there was a severe thunder storm! I would highly recommend her!”
“Jordan was absolutely fantastic! She treated Addie like she was her own! We were so happy that we booked our next boarding the same day we picked Addie up from this one!”

“Remi, Paige and Vijay were awesome hosts to Bailey. They allowed us to do a meet & greet prior to the stay date. They then reached out on the day of stay to get details about Bailey. They kept us posted on Bailey’s stay and with pictures. Would absolutely leave Bailey with them in the future. Thanks”

“Jennifer did an absolute amazing job with my big baby!! This was my first time leaving my pitbull with someone who’s not family or friends for a weekend. I was so nervous at first and Jennifer made me feel so comfortable with all of the updates over the weekend! I highly recommend her and can’t wait to use her again in the future! Top notch dog sitter”

“Natasha and her husband are phenomenal!! Incredibly responsible and genuine. They took such great care of our little girl. Her weekend included all of all her favorite things - walks, adventures to coffee shops with friends, mental stimulation, cuddling on the couch, even tooth brushing! I received frequent updates and could tell Poppy was having a great time and in great care, which I am so grateful for! Would definitely recommend Natasha and hope to call on her whenever we need a Boston sitter in the future!!”
“Amazing sitter. It’s clear from all the pictures and videos that Luna had an amazing time. Very grateful to Tomoe and her family for treating Luna like family. Will definitely be using them again in the future.”
