1. Julie & Peter W.
“Julie & Peter are such a lovely couple! So happy we found such centrally located sitters. They were so wonderful looking after my high-energy dog for a long weekend. Julie was communicative every day, sending photos at a different park. Their house with outdoor space was also a big plus!”
2. Annyah H.
“Our greyhound, Storm, loves staying with Annyah and Roger! He immediately makes himself at home on their couch the moment we arrive there! We feel so at ease leaving him with them, knowing that he is getting proper care and lots of love.”
3. Katie F.
“Katie was very flexible and accommodating when I had to change the date at short notice. She is knowledgeable about dogs and her little pups are super cute”
4. Georgette J.
“Georgette was absolutely fantastic with Pax; he is a huge puppy, highly intelligent and very sensitive. Setting things up with Georgette was smooth since she was highly responsive, sent many pictures and videos and I never once wondered whether my pup was ok because I know he was having a great time. Georgette's two dogs were also a great accompaniment to Pax, and I would highly recommend booking with her.”
5. Deena S.
“Deena is awesome! Love how flexible she is. I booked her last minute and she responded within minutes. She is very reliable and is great with my dog 🐶”
6. Francisca A.
“Francisca was extremely professional and took great care of my dog Mochi. She was very flexible in regards to schedule pickup/drop-off. My dog absolutely loved her and her dog cooper and was sad to leave them once his stay was over. Would highly recommend”
7. Caitlyn S.
“Your dog NEEDS to spend time with Caitlyn. I was so nervous to leave Winston but I think he had a better time hanging out with Caitlyn in Philly than I did on vacation in Florida! Caitlyn sent me detailed messages everyday with pictures and updates and she dedicated so much time to Winston. They went all over the city, from the Art Museum to Independence Hall and it was so amazing to see him get to go on so many adventures. Caitlyn loved snuggling with Winston and invited him up on furniture and it showed she really thought of dogs as family. When Caitlyn met up with me and Winston she listened to all of his quirks so thoughtfully and with so much understanding. I told her Winston really didn’t like water or swimming, and when she came to pick him up it was raining and she said “ let’s hurry up Winston, I know you don’t like water!” I mean come on, that was so sweet. She really took the time to learn about him. AND she came and picked him up for me which was so convenient and helpful! And finally at the end of their time together, Caitlyn bought Winston a little birthday gift. You can’t find kindness and responsibility like this everywhere. I 11/10 recommend Caitlyn !!”
8. Elizabeth G.
“Luna loves staying with Elizabeth. She gets lots of love, walks and belly rubs. And I have peace of mind knowing my Luna is in great hands when I’m away. We are big fans of Elizabeth!”
9. Brigitte & Alicia & Andrew A.
“We boarded our dog for about a week and got twice daily updates and photos, which we really appreciated. He seemed to have a really good time and he's very tired (in a good way) now that we've picked him up.”
10. Mollie & Steven B.
“Super helpful and accomodating to a last-minute request - absolute lifesavers! Regularly sent photos as well which I greatly appreciated.”
11. Noah W.
“Noah is the world’s nicest dog sitter!!! Seriously so glad I found him. My dog Brunswick obviously had a great time at Noah’s while I was away, and made friends with Noah’s very sweet pup Ginsy. We’ll definitely be using Noah regularly if he’ll have us!”
12. Samantha B.
“Sam made my pup feel very safe and welcome. She also sent several photos each day which I really appreciated! She seems to genuinely love these dogs and I will absolutely be using her services in the future. I had never boarded my dog before but Sam immediately made us feel welcome and she took great care of Ripley.”
13. Charlotte P.
“Charlotte's passion for dogs and professionalism ensured a worry-free experience. The regular updates, personalized attention, and accommodating nature surpassed expectations. I couldn't have asked for a better sitting experience for our dog Stella!”
14. Tony B.
“This was the 2nd time we had our dog Kai stay with Tony, who took such good care of him and took pics and videos throughout the week, which is always awesome! He looked like he had so much fun”
15. Chelsea K.
“Chelsea provided the perfect home away from home for my senior pup while I was on vacation for a week across the country! She treated my little guy with so much love and care as if he was her own and I could tell he had a great time from her updates and when I picked him up. My dog is a rescue with food aggression which Chelsea handled expertly. I’m excited to book her in the future, as is my dog!”
16. Emily F.
“Five stars! I’m always a little hesitant to leave my pup with someone new, but the minute I met Emily I felt totally at ease. Super friendly, great communication, and my dog adores her! Highly recommend, and 100% will repeat!”
17. Andrica S.
“Andrica was amazing. I really felt good leaving my baby with her.. she sent photos and videos letting my me Blu was okay. thank you again Andrica!!”
18. Eliza B.
“Eliza did an amazing job taking care of my dog, kiwi. She was very attentive to my dog's needs and personality. I really appreciate that there's a backyard and a space for my dog to run around too. The photo updates were also a plus. Kiwi was all smiles even as I picked her up and she was also still clean. Kiwi seemed to have a really good time throughout her visit. Couldn't have asked for a better dogsitter to take care of my dog. Would highly recommend Eliza! :)”
19. Justin Y.
“Justin is so great with my small dog! She is always excited to see him and he is quick to respond to messages. I would definitely book Justin again.”
20. John D.
“John took amazing care of our 7.5 month old puppy Rufus. This was Rufus's first ever overnight stay away from us, and was in preparation for a longer stay coming up in November. We definitely feel reassured that Rufus is in the best possible care staying here. Given his young age, we needed someone who could provide Rufus with a pretty high level of attention and John really delivered on that! He sent us lots of photos and detailed updates about how Rufus was getting on, and was patient and understanding about Rufus's puppy behaviours. We appreciated that he even worked on some training techniques with Rufus during his stay. When we picked him up, Rufus seemed very torn about whether to stay with John and Parker or to come home with us! Thank you John!”
