I recently left my dog,Fuji, in the care of Henry for a lodging period, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the moment I met Henry, it was clear that he is passionate about dogs and dedicated to providing the best possible care. Henry's attention to detail and genuine affection for Fuji put me at ease immediately. He took the time to understand Fuji's routines, preferences, and any special needs, ensuring that Fuji felt comfortable and at home. Throughout the lodging, Henry provided regular updates with photos and videos, which reassured me that Fuji was happy and well-cared for. One of the standout aspects of Henry's service was his ability to engage Fuji, keeping him both physically active and mentally stimulated. Whether it was a walk in the park, or some quiet cuddle time, Henry made sure that Fuji received the attention and care he deserved. Henry's home was clean, safe, and welcoming, with plenty of space for Fuji to explore. It was evident that Henry maintains a high standard of hygiene and safety, which is crucial for any pet owner leaving their beloved dog in someone else's care. I highly recommend Henry to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. His dedication, communication, and genuine love for dogs make him an exceptional choice for any pet care needs. Fuji and I are incredibly grateful for Henry's outstanding service, and we look forward to using his services again in the future. Thank you, Henry, for taking such wonderful care of Fuji!

We recently had the pleasure of having Weilin and Dickson to take care of our dog while we were on our honeymoon, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very first meeting, it was clear that they are true animal lovers with a deep understanding of pet care. They communicated with us regularly while we were away, sending updates and photos that put our minds at ease. Our dog immediately took a liking to them and their dog, and it was clear that he was comfortable and was enjoying his stay with them. Coming home to a happy and healthy dog was the best feeling, and we owe it all to them. We highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you, Weilin and Dickson, for your exceptional care and dedication!
