Highly recommend Xin. I had concerns boarding my 12 year old dog for the first time but Xin took very good care of her and everything went better than expected!

Needed a very last minute sitter for our dog on Father s Day. After two other failed attempts from other sitters, Tomina responded very quickly and accepted! Very sweet, and sent photo+video updates. We will definitely rebook for future trips! Thank you!

Kristin and her Husband are kind people. Our dogs were very comfortable for the time they stayed with them. We were on vacation and our pups got to enjoy a vacation also. Kristin is great and speedy with communication and was able to be flexible with us in our time in need.

Paws FUR Pink
Held annually in February, Paws FUR Pink is a dog-friendly run/walk to raise money to fight breast and canine cancers. Canines and their human companions are invited to gather at Irvine Regional Park in Orange County to walk, run, trot, sniff, and explore their way around the scenic 5k and 1-mile courses. There’s also a costume contest, a pet products and information expo, and plenty of other fur-friendly activities throughout the day. And with money raised going to benefit the Susan G.
