“Veronica made it easy! Simple, flexible drop off and pick up. Easy to find location in a quiet neighborhood. Our dog came home after 4 days where he was clearly happy to be with people and other dogs.”
4. Na-young K.
“First time using Na-Young and could not be happier. She is very personable and we were glad to have her watch a member of our family. Daily pics show how happy our dog is staying with her. I will use her to watch our dog again. Thanks, Na-Young!”
5. Suzi L.
“Suzi was an absolute life saver! She took the best care of our two large dogs and kept us posted throughout the weekend with updates and photos. She was so caring with our dogs, we will absolutely be using her again! Thank you Suzi!!!”
6. Denise C.
“Denise is a star! The key feedback is we will ask for her again next time we go away. She loooked after our female border collie mix perfectly. She sent regular updates and pictures, accommodated a last-minute schedule change, made sure Gemma was loved and walked and had the chance to play. Denise is an animal lover and knew exactly how to host our furry friend. Gemma came back missing Denise for the first few days, so I guess she gets Gemma’s recommendation too!”
7. Karen L.
“Karen took care of our mini dachshund, Penny, for the weekend while I was out of town. She did a phenomenal job keep me in the loop with photos and updates on how Penny was doing! I have never felt so comfortable leaving Penny under someone else’s care. Thank you, Karen and family!! We’ll definitely be bringing Penny back in the future!”
8. Guojin Q.
“Having our Frenchie stay with Guojin and his wife was fantastic! We had a week long trip abroad and me being the helicopter mom that I am, really loved receiving sooo many pictures and updates throughout the day of our sweet girl. Our pup looked very happy and seems to even miss her new found friends! If we ever need a sitter we really hope to be able to book Guojin and his wife again!! (:”

“Cindy is fantastic. She loves dogs and it's easy to see right away. She sends lots of pictures and it seems like I'm dropping my dog off at a dog park as she has a big back yard and the dogs lover to run and play”
10. Andrea R.
“Andrea was great and Buzz had a great time over the weekend. She was great sending pictures when we were away and always kept us updated. Will definitely use her in the future.”

15. JR C.
“JR is a fantastic care giver and a dog lover through and through. JR watched our 2 big dogs (Chesapeake Bay Retriever and a Karakachun) on 2 occasions. He worked with our shy dog to gain her trust and adjusted exercise routines to accommodate our senior dog. JR sent lots of pictures and updates and was very flexible with drop off and pick up times - especially when our train got delayed and our pick up was very late. We will use JR again and again.”
16. Michelle A.
“Our puppies were well cared for during our time away. There was a big backyard for them to run and play. Would definitely schedule another visit with Michelle!”
17. Tammi S.
“Tammi did such a good job taking care of Toby! Knowing Toby's personality (loving people more than loving dogs, sometimes gets jealous of other dogs, also try to jump at other animals such as squirrels) I was a little nervous especially about her having another dog to care for that was not her own and that Toby had not done the meet and greet, but the dogs all got along and Toby did not want to leave!!!! Tammi was also very diligent about sending me update in words, pics, and videos which is very much appreciated. lastly, when I shared my concern that Toby would most likely jump over her fence, she agreed to use a leash. What mattered to me the most is that Toby was happy and safe, had fun while there, and he definitely did! I am so glad I found Tammi! I highly recommend her for anyone.”
18. Susan C.
“Left our dog for a week with Susan and she came back happy and tired :). Susan has a backyard and also takes the dogs under her care out for walks at a local lake. She sent pictures when requested. I would recommend Susan to others.”
19. YJ L.
“Our dog Mula is a shy 3 legged dog, and she loves YJ’s calm and gentle demeanor. YJ is always prompt with communication and is so easy to work with !”
20. George N.
“George was amazing! He took such good care of our Nova. I actually think our puppy is better behaved now than he was before he went to George’s! George was extremely responsive and sent us BEAUTIFUL pictures of Nova during his stay! Nova loved running around their huge fenced in yard. We will definitely use George’s services again!!!”
