“John and Johanna are amazing!! They cared for Cairo as if he was their own. From cuddles to bath time, Cairo was truly pampered the entire visit. It’s not the most comfortable being away from your fur baby, however, through pics and videos I felt connected the entire time. Highly recommend John and Johanna. I will be reaching out again soon. :)”


“Ashley and her husband seem very caring and kind. Noel warmed up to Ashley almost immediately and she sent pictures throughout his stay. Thank you both!”



“Tamara was so sweet, thoughtful, and helpful with our anxious pup. She picked him up, took fantastic care of him, sent plenty of updates during our time away, and brought him home happy and relaxed. She was super accommodating, too, when we needed to change our timing for pickup. We can’t wait to have Tamara watch our little guy again! It’s so nice to find a reliable, kind, easygoing person to watch our dog when needed. Tamara is absolutely awesome!!!”


“Eun and her family took great care of Peach, and also provided me pics/videos throughout the day. My little Yorkie seems to have awesome day with them. I will definitely book again and highly recommend her.”


“Aimee was so amazing as a sitter. Our pup stayed with her for 10 days over the holidays and we couldn't have hoped for a better place for her to be. She sent photos and videos daily, was attentive, let us know everything that was going on. When our pup had an upset tummy she made her special food with approval. If I could give 100/10 I would. Our pup loved playing with their pup, we will absolutely be return visitors!”


“Karen was wonderful~ Our two dogs seemed happy after spending the night with her! I live in Texas but am visiting Virginia and will definitely call on Karen next time!”


“Satyam took great care of our 3 month old puppy. He sent pictures and updates throughout the visit and our puppy left very happy! We would recommend booking with Satyam.”


“Lydia took incredible care of our pup while we were out of the country. We had never left him for so long or gone so far away and I was nervous since he is the baby of the family. She sent so many pictures and videos and really went above and beyond to ensure he got lots of love and attention. He always looked happy and I was reassured right away that he was in great hands with her and her family. I would recommend Lydia to anyone!”



“Kristen was so great with our pups and made all requester accommodations. Her property really is a doggy paradise! We could tell how much fun our pups had when we came to pick them up. They were tired (in a good way) from playing and socializing. Kristen also has tons of dog gear, so no need to bring your own (unless they need their favorite toy, etc ?). We left our pups there for 2 weeks and they were clearly in great hands. We will be sure to use Kristen again!”


“Nina is such a great dog sitter, she took good care of our lil Theo. Additionally sends pictures and videos during pet sitting. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nina for such an amazing job.”


“They did great job watching Rocket! I like that I was able to drop him off at their place instead of having them come over to mine. I got consistent updates while I was on my trip, so I knew that everything was going well. I don't trust many people with my dog, but Hommer and Helen are kind and loving, and I could tell that Rocket enjoyed himself. I will definitely book again for my next trip. Thanks guys for your help!”


“Iryna is wonderful. I have an elderly dog with dementia, so he requires special kind of care and Iryna did a wonderful job. She’s caring and attentive and I feel comfortable leaving my dog in her capable hands, which is incredibly hard for me to find usually.”


“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog Venti with Jenna for an overnight stay at her home, and I couldn't be more impressed and pleased with the experience! From the moment we met her and her dogs to when I dropped off my pup, it was clear that Jenna is a true dog lover and experienced caregiver. Her home was warm and welcoming, and she introduced my dog to her pets in a calm, friendly way that instantly put them at ease. Throughout the stay, Jenna kept me updated with pictures and messages, making me feel comfortable knowing that my dog was in such capable hands. She followed all of my instructions to a tee, from feeding times to walks, and even made sure to engage my dog in plenty of playtime and cuddle sessions. I could tell that my dog was not just being "watched," but genuinely cared for. When I picked my dog up, she was happy, well-exercised, and clearly had a great time. Jenna's attention to detail and thoughtful care set her apart, and I can confidently say that I will be booking with her again for future trips. If you're looking for a loving, reliable dog boarder, I highly recommend Jenna! Your dog will be in great hands.”


“William was great to our dogs, they always looked like they were having a great time in all of the pictures that he sent me. He has a nice big house with a beautiful back yard that our dogs enjoyed. We will be having our dogs stay at his house again next time we go out of town.”


“Miss Cleo had a great time with Deborah and Lotus during her 6-day stay! Deborah treated Cleo to pup-cups and play partners and kept me up-to-date with pictures and videos.”


“Matina takes great care of our dog. This is the longest we have left our dog with anyone and it was comforting to know that, once again, she was in good hands. Thanks, Matina!”


“An excellent job taking care of our Charlie on short notice (and a Saturday) thank you!!”


“Shivani and her family, including her dog was really sweet and caring with our dog, we loved that she was always keeping us updated about our dog activities thorough the day. She was also flexible with time since our flight got delayed. We will definitely book again for our next trip coming soon.”
