“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!”



“Our dog had THE BEST weekend at Kira's house! Kona fell in love with the humans and the other dogs that were there, and Kira sent us great photo updates along the way. After we picked Kona up from Kira's house, she was clearly happy and exhausted from so much play time. At 7pm, she had turned in for the night. A tired dog is a happy dog!”


“Our dear Anna and Yoshiyuki once again were the best caretakers of Atlas that we could have ever asked for. We were on vacation abroad for over two weeks and there was not a single second when we had to worry about Atlas's well-being as we constantly and consistently got photo and video updates from Anna throughout each day. We could clearly tell Anna and Yoshiyuki loved her as if she was their own. We know Atlas already misses them and is looking forward to seeing them again. Thank you very much!”


“This was my puppy’s first time boarding, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He took such great care of her—sending regular updates and photos, taking her out for playtime and exercise, and even bringing her to a dog park. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands while I was away. I truly appreciate all the attention and care he gave her. Thank you so much!”


“Alix is the best! She takes such great care of our dog and sends frequent updates. I can tell my dog loves being there and it’s just so nice knowing my dog is in such good hands. Thanks Alix!”


“Lauren was amazing! She was so good with my dog Jango. We did a meet and create and she was very accommodating to Jango’s needs and was super responsive. While I was away, she sent me great updates on him and communicated whenever she had any questions. Would absolutely book with her again!! Highly recommend Lauren!”


“What a wonderful experience I had on vacation knowing my Tuna was safe with a kind and loving person! I received daily photo messages, sometimes two. Always kept informed and in the loop with what his day to day was looking like, from watching movies to playing with this really gross toy he is obsessed with. We will definitely be back for future trips. Thanks Barbara!”


“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.”


“Caramelo had another boarding for 2 nights and three days with Sunisa. I am especially grateful for this one, as I needed to add a night due to work and family matters. Sunisa was very flexible in accommodating my request and I appreciate her empathy and Chris. Caramelo is transitioning to another food, as he is very picky. She followed my instructions and we hope he will be completely done with this transition by the time his extended boarding approaches, as I am traveling overseas. Thank you, Sunisa, for being so genuinely caring, a big thank you to both for being so thoughtful, for keeping me up to date, and for sending such wonderful pictures through the time Caramelo is under your care. As always, I cannot recommend her enough.”


“We had such a wonderful experience booking with Tomoe! Yoda was treated just like family and it’s safe to say he was right at home! Thank you for taking such great care of him and sharing such cute pictures and videos!”


“Sara was simply awesome. She responded immediately and was very flexible in meeting with Bentley and I. Her home is open and welcoming and her children were super helpful with taking care of Bentley's needs. I highly recommend Sara and will seek out her services again and again.”


“From the moment I left my dog, I felt completely comfortable my pet would be taken care of. Robert is friendly, knowledgable and communicated with me very well throughout my pets stay. I requested Robert's services in the middle of the night and he quickly responded at 7am, very accommodating and helpful. Robert's home is very dog friendly. My pet was given regular walks, access to dog park and I received pictures often. I would use Robert again and highly recommend him as a dog sitter!”


“Cora went above and beyond while watching our dog Remi, she was very helpful with his recent injury care, sent lots of photos and updates, and helped calm his anxiety, would highly recommend!”


“Xiaoting is very responsible! I was originally choosing between him and another sitter because the other one was closer to my place but I’m so glad that I chose him! Definitely worth the trip! Oolong loves him so much. Oolong has mild separation anxiety and Xiaoting spent a lot of time playing with him and really made him feel at home! I also got pictures from Xiaoting from time to time even when I didnt ask! I would def come back when I need a dog sitter in the future. 10/10 - highly recommend!!!”


“Kevin was a fantastic caregiver for my pup. Great communication, very responsive, lots of pictures, and clearly comfortable with dogs and their ways. Very detail oriented and wonderful written updates. Most importantly, he clearly cared about my dog, not just for my dog. Would book again without hesitation.”


“I just want to say Tiffany was a great sitter for my little guy. he’s a tough little cookie, but she was very patient and keep me posted with every detail what was going on with him Daily. I appreciate her patience and the love she has for my little fur baby. I will definitely book her again. 💕”


“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!”
