We've been hesistant to hire an in-home dog sitter for a while because our experience on Rover has…read morealways been negative. Looking for a last minute sitter, we reached out to Kasia who luckily had availability the next day. We exchanged texts and did a phone call to discuss our pets and felt confident to have her dogsit based on her experience and energy. From the moment she arrived, we could tell she had good energy and so did the animals, immediately being drawn to her. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats which is a lot for 1 person, but she looked after them with ease and care. We are so grateful we found Kasia to watch our precious babies, as she approached it with affection, love, and kindness. She gave us picture updates throughout the day and reassured us that our little ones were doing well. Her prices are also very reasonable! Highly recommend if you're looking for a trusting and caring dog sitter.

My dog was really excited to meet Kasia and immediately was playing with her and running around our yard for her. She has never acted that way with anyone before. Of course, when I was not there, she was still wary of Kasia, but Kasia was able to calm her and take her out and feed her. She is reliable and great with dogs. Thank you Kasia - I hope you and KD really get to know each other in the future.

This was my first time ever leaving my dogs with a professional dog-sitting company, and I was…read morehonestly nervous. Ever since my older dog was diagnosed with diabetes, it has been so stressful trying to find someone I can truly trust to care for her. I knew I needed someone reliable while traveling out of the country, and I'm so grateful I found this company. Maria was incredible--she sent multiple photos and updates every single day, which meant so much to me. She was thorough, attentive, and I could genuinely tell how much my pups adored her. It was such a relief to be able to fully relax on my trip knowing my dogs were being loved and cared for as if they were her own. Highly recommend!

As first time dog owners, training was a top priority for us. We have a pretty high energy puppy…read more(as most puppies are), so we wanted to make sure he started training early on. We also didn't want to go to a group lesson where we would have to re-teach "sit" 20 times if one dog didn't figure it out and ours did. All I can say is that Ryan was the best decision we could have made for training. Our 6 month old goldendoodle just finished his puppy training and is such a good listener now! Since training, he now: -Waits at the door and for his food -Stopped hopping on the top of our couch -Can sit & stay in busy places (one of our trainings was at Fashion Island during holiday time) -Walks with us and rarely pulls on his leash -Can sit, lay down, spin around, crawl, wait, etc. -Goes to his bed or crate when we tell him Ryan is quick to respond over the phone and truly cares about each of his clients' training success. He would sometimes call us in between trainings to check in & see if we were having any training issues/how training was going. I'm certain that if you go through Ryan you will 100% see a difference in your fur child!

Ryan is a fantastic trainer! Had our first lesson today with our two rescued boxer/shepherd mix…read morepups and WOW, what an awesome session. I actually felt like training was fun(?!) and our girls were already making massive progress in the hour and a half we spent together. Ryan has a way of making you and your dog(s) feel totally comfortable and confident. He is extremely knowledgeable, energetic and ready to answer any question or concern you might have. Positive Reinforcement training is absolutely the way to go in our experience (we tried other methods but it just stressed everyone out). We HIGHLY recommend Ryan and look forward to building a great relationship with he and our pups in the future. Really looking forward to our next lesson! Thanks again Ryan!
