Maria did such a fantastic job taking care of Bobbi when I was traveling for a conference. Bobbi was back happy and healthy. I will definitely recommend and rebook in the future!

Mona was exactly what I had hoped for. She listened to my preferences for making Finchi comfortable and did everything she could to make his stay just like home. She updated me daily with pictures and comments which were very heart warming. When I picked up Finchi after his 4 night stay, he was excited to see me but still went to Mona for petting. That told me everything I needed to know. He had been well cared for. We do not travel often, but now I know we have a perfect home for Finchi if we do !! I highly recommend Mona and Bruce. True dog lovers. ;-)

Picked up 2 pups that seemed happy and not anxious! They seemed to be getting good walks, and Kim messaged at least once a day to let us know how they were doing.

I would give Amy 15 stars if I could. She gave me the best first experience of dog sitting that I could’ve possibly asked for. She truly did treat my little yorkie, Mongo, like family and I didn’t expect to feel SO comfortable leaving him with someone that I previously didn’t know before. She went above and beyond for him and I appreciate that beyond words. For example: she baked homemade dog treats for him the day of, she let him sleep on her bed with her (SLEEP ON HER BED - that’s how comfortable and happy he was while staying with her), she sent multiple photos and updates a day, and was extremely flexible when it came to times and planning for the stay. This was hands down the best experience I could’ve asked for and I am beyond grateful for the wonderful service she provided me and my baby Mongo. She loved him as if he has been part of her life since he was a puppy and she took the better care of him than most people would expect. Mongo will for sure be visiting her and her sweet pup, Cola, in the future and I am sure he’ll be excited. He had a great time staying with her and that is all thanks to her. Thank you so much for the wonderful care and love you provided my baby, Amy, thank you so so much!!!

Shernee was fantastic! Communication through the whole process could not have been better. As soon as we arrived, Sunny seemed comfortable. She got a lot great with Shernee’s 2 sweet pups as well. Sunny seemed very happy and worn out when we picked her up. We will definitely use Shernee and Jason next time we are in Gainesville.

Kathleen was amazing with my littles. Our dogs range from 13 years to 7 months and she knew exactly how to make all of them comfortable. She sent video updates frequently and I never had to worry about how they were doing. Her yard is completely fenced so there is no risk of anyone wandering off. The visit was amazing. I could tell immediately how much Kathleen loves animals. I would leave my babies with her again!

I was so pleasantly surprised by how quickly my fearful and shy pup took to Skyelar! Typically drop offs are a huge stressor for him, but this was the easiest one he’s ever had thanks to Skyelar. The updates and pics made me feel so comforted. I can absolutely tell that he had a good experience because he was far less clingy than he’s ever been to me when I picked him up! I would not hesitate to rebook and highly recommend Skyelar!

So glad Elijah was taking care of our pups! He gave us daily updates and took a lot of pics. While we were away, Ruby got sick and he didn't hesitate to take her to the vet and make sure she got the care she needed. Definitely feel comfortable leaving our dogs with him in the future!

Claudia demonstrated a genuine love and understanding of dogs, making me feel completely at ease. We left our dog Arthur with her over the weekend, who is a little over one year old. She was so good about giving me updates with pictures that made me smile throughout my vacation. I'm so grateful for the peace of mind she gave me during my trip. Highly recommend! Our pup came back happy! :)

Highly recommend having Autumn watch your furbabies! She sent me updates everyday on how our pup, Torvi, was doing. Usually the first few days our pup is shy when we drop her at a sitter but Autumn was very patient with her and gave her time to get used to it. Torvi had a blast at her house :)

So thankful for Jillian who has been so kind and patient with our aging Cookie. As she gets older and has more accidents (totally foreign to us), Jillian has been everything filled with understanding and loving toward Cookie. Hoping she'll be willing to watch her for us in future stays ?
