Dog vacay is very organized and if your favorite host is not available there is always other host who are willing and capable to care for your furry baby . The prices are reasonable and reservations are simple to do. Awesome experience!

We loved the couple that we chose to watch our dog for close to 4 days. He had lots of fun and we got just enough updates to keep us informed. The price also affordable and much better than just leaving him at a pet hotel which also was not possible since he is not neutered.

I LOVED ALEX! She was the BEST! Always hard to leave your baby with someone you don't know. But after meeting and talking with Alex I felt so much better. It was last minute and a Holiday and she was Great made time for me to meet her. Told me exactly but would be done and gave me a choice. Alex looked after my Bridgett as of she was her own. Five stars for Alex!

Our first experience with Dog Vacay went quite well. Our hosts took excellent care of our 10 year old Westie for a couple of days north of two weeks. Although she is used to being top dog at home (well... the ONLY dog) she quickly became part of her vacay pack of 5 dogs and 2 puppies. Booking was simple and fast. Would have appreciated less of a service fee tacked on above and beyond the sitter's daily fee. For the quality of care, however, I will think about booking again the next time we go out of town.

I wasn't happy with putting my dog in a kennel and after a few bad experiences I began searching for something better. I was referred to Dog Vacay by a fellow dog owner and I never looked back!! The hosts/hostesses that I have used have been so caring towards my dog that I didn't have any worries at all. Receiving picture update is my favorite part! So thankful for Dog Vacay!!

We have a very special and spoiled little 9 year old Yorkie! (Spec) we have never left her anywhere before. She always came with us and she would be tired from traveling. But after meeting Laurie my little girl fit right in. With the emails and pictures we were very comfortable while we were away. The only fear i had is Spec might want to stay with Laurie and not want to come home! Best thing i did for Spec and us!

I've used DV twice in the past couple of months. Once for a week and the second time for an overnight. I found the booking and reservation process to be very easy to use, and found ample providers in my area.
