DogVacay.com – Dog Boarding Community

I am very happy with the care my two dogs, ages 10 and 13, received. I was afraid they would have separation anxiety and bark their heads off, but Jan and Mike in Hatboro, PA knew how to make them feel comfortable and right at home. They did very well without me for 3 ½ days. Also, one of my dogs needed eye medication, which was no problem. Highly recommended.

So far I’ve used Carlye and Alan twice for my dog Wally and they have been very pleasant and patient with my anxious cockapoo Wally. He’s a little anxious and in training and they followed my directions so that his routine wasn’t terribly altered. I also love that the dog sitters can send you pictures of your dog while you’re away!
I love this site — definitely check it out and go for a meet n greet with people that are way better than any kennel!

The host (Angie O @ New Castle, DE 19 720) kept my two small dogs without much notice. They are very fond of Teddy and Sylvia and have nicknamed them «The Littles.» Very accommodating hosts who sent me daily updates. When I came to pick up my dogs and they learned my car was still in the shop, they kindly offered to drop me and the dogs off at home.

I used dog vacay for my dog’s first stay out of my home and care. It was excellent; Zoe stayed with Scott and Evelyn in Levittown. I could not have asked for a better experience. My dog was able to get a ton of play and exercise time with their resident dogs, and Scott and Evelyn were patient in ensuring my dog ate as she has been picky with dry food recently.

Highly recommend this service; it’s like Unilocal for pets! My dogs seemed off after boarding for the weekend at the local Vet so I Googled other options and came across this site. Very easy to use for searches and payments. You can navigate your doggiesitter by location, view their pricing and reviews and write a personal message to your prospective pet sitters to set up a meet and greet prior to the Vacay.

A friend recommended
to find somewhere to board our two puggles for our week in our ‘no-​dogs-​allowed’ rental in Ocean City, NJ, and we found Ron & Pat. They are a wonderful, friendly couple who truly love dogs and enjoy each and every 4-​legged visitor they have! Our dogs had the best time with Ron & Pat! From the moment we dropped our dogs off, to the moment of pick-​up, we knew they were in good hands and would enjoy their DogVacay week as much (or maybe more) than we enjoyed our vacation. Their location was so convenient onto and off of the (Ocean City, NJ) island, and their property was perfect for dogs (on a golf course, with lots of fenced-​in room to run around & play). The daily photo updates were perfect and took any worry out of leaving our dogs here. We’ll definitely be back! Can’t thank you enough, Ron & Pat! :-)

My dog Oliver just back from six days (and nights) with Pat and Ron at their lovely home on a golf course. He did great there. They are very caring and reliable and I will send him back to them whenever I need him to be left for either a day or longer. The daily photos are a great plus.

I heard about dogvacay through a friend and recently needed someone to watch my pup last minute. I was able to book with less than 24 hours notice. I used Nanoo in center city and she was amazing! She picked my pup up at my apartment and took amazing care of him (text updates and photos). If you need a sitter use dogvacay and if your near the city use nanoo!

I used
for my two dogs in April 2915 and they where amazing. Her name was Amber up here in Bethlehem PA. She totally rocked. I was looking for a family that had kids… since I had puppies and they adore kids… bingo it was a match in heaven.
When I went to pick up my dogs, they didnt even get phased out about the transfer over. good sign.
Awesome service.

Dog vacay provides a great service with great hosts! ++ supportive and helpful staff/​support.

I have heard nothing but great things about Dogvacay so when I finally travelled and had the opportunity to use the service, it was as expected. For a first time pet owner they made the process very easy!

We have been using DogVacay for six months now and Steve & Kristal in Lansdale and simply the best. They love Tobias and he loves to visit. Great care of our boy and picture updates of all the fun will keep us going back whenever there is a need.

I used dogvacay when I went out of town for a couple weeks over the holidays. The host was fantastic, my dog was happy as could be the whole time, and the interface with the website was easy and efficient. I was really impressed with the company and the quality of the person who hosted my dog. It was a couple in grad school who had their own dog… they took my dog to the park and even sent me photos of my dog wearing a santa claus hat and happily asleep with their dog. I’d use dogvacay again in a hot minute.

I would never have found such great dog sitters without this site. It makes traveling much easier when I know my pup is getting taken care of by people I trust. PLUS it’s not expensive and their website is super manageable; I even get pictures from my dog host giving me updates.

We just used DogVacay for the first time and we had a great experience. Our dog is tired from playing with another pup all weekend. We weren’t interested in boarding him at a kennel and found DogVacay as an option. It was relatively easy to find someone on short notice and the hosts made it really simple to coordinate drop off/​pick up. We received several photo updates with comments that made our weekend less stressful. Would certainly recommend to anyone!
My only wish is that all hosts updated their availability more accurately. I emailed several hosts who appeared to be free, but were not and that wasn’t reflected on their profile.

Dog Vacay is amazing!!! Helpful staff and fun pups!

I’ve been using
for the last several years every time I leave town and need to find dog boarding for my husky. My dog needs a lot of exercise and gets destructive when crated, which is why
was so appealing to me. In every city I’ve used it (LA, Philly, Cincinnati), I’ve found nothing but super nice, responsible hosts who spoil my dog with lots of walks and me with lots of pictures every day.
Seriously, if you need any pet sitting, look no further.
