His stay was great. These guys are always doing a really good job of managing all the dogs. Toby loved playing with all of them

We have only left our dog with family in the past and never at a kennel so when I found DogVacay I was thrilled. To know that our pet could be left in a home, loved and cared for by a person who loves dogs was so comforting. We had a very positive experience, our dog sitter sent us pictures and updates which was an added benefit. I have mentioned this service to several people and would highly recommend the secure service they provide.

We have taken our senior English Settet Zoey to Kel Hardy in Montgomery AL multiple times in 2016. She is a wonderful caring dog sitter Zoey loves her time away.

Booked a stay through DogVacay and unfortunately the sitter had to cancel. Customer care immediately got with me and suggested 5 other sitters for me and also gave me a credit for the inconvenience caused by the sitter canceling on me. Great customer service. Strongly recommend.

I love this site! The user experience is so easy to navigate through, and I love that all the coordination and transactions are done through the website.

Dogvacay offers a much needed service. I'd like to see improvements made in the website. Not as intuitive as it could be... I don't like the non-refundable fee as I don't see a reason for this. Hosts for the most part seem to do a good job. I've had a couple of meet and greets where I would not have left my dog with them under any circumstances so I was happy I had the opportunity to pre-screen.

I am familiar with DogVacay and trust the concept. It is easy to book, you can meet the pet sitter before you book, and you get photo updates. You are able to visit the home where your pet will vacay to make sure it is a good fit. My pet loved it

My doggy Vacay provider was excellent, would suggest that anyone searching for an home dog sitter check the site for one that fits your preferences.

I had made a reservation for my pup that the host canceled the day I was supposed to drop off my pup! Dog Vacay customer service recommended a few alternatives that were in my price range (that for some reason never populated in the original search - because I read all of them in the original search!) I was able to contact a sitter and she ended up being so sweet and great for our puppy. I will use Dog Vacay again in the future

Jennifer was wonderful, and Nookie received the appropriate care and love. I recommend her as a dog sitter. She was kind and patient with me.

If you're looking for a place for your dog to stay and play at then this is the site for you. We've been using DogVacay for about 3 years now and have been satisfied with the ease of booking and the number of "hosts" available to watch our furry little critter. Our dog has loved every place we've brought her to.

DogVacay is a good place to find a variety of dog and cat sitters.

We met with the couple beforehand and we were very comfortable with them and their home. They kept us up to date on a daily basis with pictures and how our dog was doing. This made us feel at ease while on vacation. We could tell when we returned that he enjoyed where he was.

I recently moved to Washington, DC, and was hesitant about using DogVacay without any previous knowledge about how it works, but after reading a few reviews about the DogVacay Host that I had chosen, I felt comfortable entrusting my pet with them. I really like the easy reservation request and confirmation process, as well as the secure service to pay for the reservation. I will definitely use DogVacay and the Host I used last time in the future.

I booked my dog's first "vacay" last week and found both the sitter search and payment method very easy to navigate. We lucked out and found a lovely host with a well maintained fenced in yard. She also has her own friendly dog and sent me regular updates with photos. I will definitely use the site and their sitters again!

I really appreciate the peace of mind that dogvacay gives me when I go out of town. I don't have to worry about how my dogs are doing as Erica and Angela stay in touch with me and send me pictures every day.

Great way for me to book my dog a vacay for a quick family visit on short notice. Amazing service. Will definitely use again!

Victoria and her husband were great. Helped us understand our dog and her needs a little better being a first time dog owner. They exercised her twice a day and worked with her on her jumping and leash manners. Plan on using them once a month for a doggie day out!

I read about DogVacay in Kiplinger magazine, of all places. And I've used it numerous times since. It costs less than a dog boarding facility and your pet stays in a home with a person, who usually has one or multiple dogs - so your furbaby gets lots of human contact and a furry play friend. How good is that?! Brilliant concept; it's like Uber for dog-boarding.

I have had both my granddoggie (Leroy) and furbaby (Zoe) stay with Darin in Conroe. The experience has been great all around. Zoe was with him for over a week, and he sent us pictures and updates daily. We were able to enjoy our vacation without feeling guilty that she felt abandoned. He obviously treated her like a princess, because she wasn't over-the-top ready to get outta there when hubs went to get her (and hubs is guilty of spoiling her, for sure).
