Kevin took terrific care of Snow during a business trip. He was super-responsive and sensitive to her needs. Snow loved the company of his puppy Skye, whose name just happens to coincide with that of her deceased sister (who was a corgi not a husky)!

Julie kept our two dogs for a long weekend and was absolutely fabulous. We were nervous leaving our younger dog (who has some anxiety) in a new place with someone new for the first time but it couldn’t have gone better. Both dogs seemed totally happy and at ease when we picked them up. I genuinely think they didn’t want to come home! We will certainly be using Julie again.

Jamie , Kenzie and Nikki were AMAZING taking care of Escarcha. We know that she was completely safe and well fed and they sent us videos and photos of everyone playing with her. Escarcha even warmed up to their dog Sammy although she doesn’t love hanging with other dogs. We highly recommend them!!

Sean is simply the best! He’s so good with Bailey, takes him on many hikes and walks and snuggles with him. Bailey wags his tail when he sees Sean, and can’t wait to go back. Thank you, Sean! Bailey will be back.

First time we’ve left our dogs with Stefan & Elvia and the first time we’ve left our dogs at all since covid, so we were a little uneasy with all of it, but we were quickly out at ease seeing how this family cared for dogs in their home. They clearly made every pup parr of their family while staying with them. Our younger dog has never been without us and waa clearly sad but she spent most of her time in bed with one of their children until she grew some confidence and decided to play with the other dogs. We hate leaving our dogs behind but could not have been happier with the care and communication. We will gladly use them again the next time we can’t bring the pups with us

What a lovely family. It was hard to leave our wonderful dog, but we were so happy to see the fabulous care, attention, exercise, and fun lavished on him. We received plenty of photos and salient communication about meals, walks, human and canine interaction. It was as much his vacation as it was ours. We enthusiastically recommend Tara and her fantastic family to care for your pet.

Juju seemed comfortable, relaxed, and joyful the whole time. They took her on wonderful walks around the neighborhood, to the hills, parks and through nature. I feel so lucky to have found them. Thank you so much for everything

Eddy watched our dogs, Henry and Albert, last minute and absolutely saved the day. He made the whole process super easy — handled pickup and drop-off, sent plenty of photo updates, and kept us in the loop the entire time. His communication was excellent and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. You can tell Eddy truly loves what he does and treats every dog like his own. It’s rare to find someone that reliable and thoughtful, especially on short notice. We’ll definitely be booking with him again and would highly recommend Eddy to anyone looking for a sitter they can completely trust.

Kaitlyn was incredible! Not only did she accommodate Annie on super short notice after a last minute cancellation, but she took phenomenal care of Annie and made sure she was as comfortable as possible during her stay. Provided regular updates, gave Annie her medication on time, and gave her plenty of exercise. Couldn’t recommend Kaitlyn more!

My pup Lyla had a fantastic stay with Yick-Hong and his wife for a week! All the pictures they sent me she looked so happy and relaxed. She even was sleeping on her back because she was so comfortable (vulnerable position for dogs). They took her on walks to new areas which she loves and even ran with her because they could tell she enjoyed it. They also provided detailed daily updates and were responsive to any messages I sent. I will definitely have Lyla stay with them again!

I had a great experience boarding my cat for a last minute weekend away. They made sure my cat was comfortable with a separate room (since he has dietary restrictions), equipped with a cat tree, bed, bowls, and litter box. They were able to administer his medications easily. Communication was consistent & I got photo and video updates throughout. I was able to have an anxiety free weekend and my cat got a vacation too! I will definitely book next time I need a sitter.
