“Adonis was with Julie for a 2 week stay and had a blast! He quickly settled into her house and almost immediately took ownership of protecting her from all squirrels and other animals outside the house. He loves to play and Julie was awesome about sending us pictures of his stay with her. She was great with his food and even went the extra mile to feed him alternate food when he was not eating one day. Adonis bonded with Julie and we would love to have him stay with her again!”

“Eric is warm and caring and has a wonderful way with the dogs he cares for. Our dog Moose had trouble staying with another sitter but did great with Eric! We felt so comfortable leaving Moose with him.”

“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”

“Bo & Xiaosong were AMAZING! Our Westie Fergus had a wonderful long stay and we’ll definitely be back. We greatly appreciated the frequent texts, photos and videos which showed us Fergus was enjoying himself! There happened to be a heatwave while we were away and Bo & Xiaosong took extra effort to take good care, walking at early and late hours when the heat was minimal. They even cooked him chicken when they worried he wasn’t eating enough! Such outstanding dog sitters! Highly, highly recommend!”


“Buddy received lots of attention, had a great time, and was well taken care of. I got pictures everyday. He was boarded for a week and a half and I would recommend.”

“Tomoe was fantastic! Our shih tzu Dobby got so much love and attention, and Tomoe sent pictures, texts, and videos with updates on how he was doing. I would highly recommend Tomoe and will definitely leave my dog with her again.”

“Barbara was incredible - she was easy to coordinate and communicate with, sent plenty of photos and updates throughout his stay, and gave him lots of care and affection.”

“Su took such good care of my sweet girl!! His home is a lovely space and is very welcoming for a visitor. He sent detailed updates with photos so I always knew my pup was doing great. He really seemed to care about her happiness and well-being! I am so grateful! I hope to use his services again!”

“Sarah and her family went above and beyond durin our senior dog’s recent stay. From daily walks and snuggles to administering medication and a special diet, Sarah made us feel comfortable leaving our pup. We so appreciated the daily videos and pictures and the opportunity to meet with Sarah beforehand. And it was no problem when she had to refill one of our dogs medications. Truly heroic! Thank you, thank you, for everything! Buddy loved his stay with you!”

“Holly was wonderful! Milo had a great stay with Holly and her family, and loved the company of her adorable doodle River. She sent daily photos and was very easy to communicate with. I felt at ease knowing that Milo was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Francois is exceedingly kind and good about checking in and letting me know how Sadie’s doing, always with a sweet photo. I know she is in highly competent and caring hands.”

“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!”

“Can’t say enough great things about Jess and her family, and the care they provided for our pup! Kona spent a little over a week with Jess and we are so happy with the care she received. We were sent frequent updates, and never worried about Kona. She had a ton of fun, and was tired from all the fun she had when we picked her up. We will definitely be booking with Jess again for our travel boarding needs!”

“Lucy had a great time while visiting Rebecca and Janet. From the meet and greet, to communication and photos during her visit, we were so happy with our experience. We look forward to Lucy visiting them again!”

“Alex took amazing care of Gretta during her stay. He is incredibly kind, patient and thoughtful. He sent us amazing photos and videos. It's clear he truly loves dogs but also just an incredible human !!! I can't recommend him enough”

“Rocky had a great time staying with Sarah and Luis! He was well cared for and had plenty of fresh air, walks and play time. I received pictures and notes throughout Rocky’s stay. I would highly recommend them if you want the best care for your furry family member!! 5 star experience all around!🐕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Bridget was fabulous. Blue had some digestive issues. We communicated with Bridget ahead of time and she was extremely supportive and helpful. She administered new food and medicine while Blue was there. She is an absolute pro and awesome to work with!”

Kim took such great care of Louie! I could tell right away that she was a true dog lover. She sent several pictures and checked in with me over the duration of the stay. She instantly eased my anxiety as I hadn’t left Louie for an overnight stay in a while and I could tell he was comfortable and happy. I would highly recommend Kim!

This is the second time our dog, James, has stayed with Iana, his favorite sitter. She sent us a video and many pictures daily, keeping us updated on how he was doing. James looked so happy and relaxed, clearly enjoying himself in a familiar and loving environment. We will definitely ask her to take care of him again!

We are so grateful to Emily for taking such amazing care of our dog, Aria, while we were on vacation. From the moment we dropped Aria off, we knew she was in great hands. Emily was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs, Aria settled in right away! Aria enjoyed her daily walks and playing in her fenced backyard. Throughout the stay, Emily kept us updated with sweet messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind and showed just how happy and comfortable Aria was in her home. It was clear she treated Aria like one of her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Aria with Emily again. Highly recommended!
