“My husband and I are first time dog parents and we were very nervous when dropping of our puppy for the first time, but Samantha was extremely helpful and walked us through the process. We take our puppy to Samantha 3 days a a week and since the first visit, we have seen a huge improvement in our puppy’s behavior and social skills. Samantha takes the time to work on training and socialization. She gives updates and photo’s throughout the day so we always know our puppy is happy and doing well. Any time we have had a special request, Samantha has been very helpful and flexible. We love taking our dogs puppy here and would highly recommend it!”
2. Scott S.
“Scott was incredibly friendly and easy to book with. They took such great care of our husky Bolt and sent plenty of cute pictures and updates on our boy. They easily accommodated our schedule and had the cutest little pug that our husky loved. Bolt enjoyed his time and got to play and make friends with some adorable dogs, he even got a yummy treat to take home with him at the end. If you are in need of a an excellent sitter who clearly loves dogs and enjoys taking care of them, then we can’t recommend Scott enough! We will definitely be booking again!”

“Cynthia took great care of our dog, Maizy! She went above and beyond to make sure was Maizy was comfortable and engaged. Maizy can be a picky eater and Cynthia even got her to eat a full meal. She was lovey to communicate with, was very responsive, and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely be dropping our pup off with her again!”

“Jen was an absolute delight and took great care of both of my dogs! She was extremely accommodating and friendly! I highly recommend and will definitely rebook with her in the future as the need arises!”
5. Amethyst O.
“EXCELLENT!! I have two medium-small dogs that loved being with Amethyst and her dogs. Her backyard is huge, my boys got to run around all day, and her huskies are extremely easy to get along with. My boys were tired out by the end of the day which is not always the case with daycares. Also, I was sent photos, updates, and videos regularly. A pet owners dream to get regular updates. I HIGHLY recommend Amethyst as a dog caretaker!”
6. Samantha K.
“Samantha is amazing! So are her pets! We booked last minute and she was so willing to work with us! She is very responsive, will get back to you quickly. She sends lots of videos and pictures throughout your pets day! Your pet will get plenty of exercise if you book with Samantha! We have already booked another week with her! My ONLY negative with her would be Ollie is definitely going to miss his friends! ☺️”

12. Jennifer K.
“Where do I start, Jennifer is one of the most thoughtful, aware, compassionate, intuitive, patient and respectful human beings that I've ever met. Her love for animals is above and beyond. Jennifer has a special gift of tapping into each animal's individual characteristics/ personalities. She treats every animal as if it were her own and gives 110% when it comes to making sure they feel safe, loved, and fulfilled. I would highly recommend Jennifer to watch anyone's fur babies.”
13. Mary S.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!
14. Lucia R.
“First time ever using this app and Lucia made it easy to book with her, nice and responsive! She sent me a video of my dog and that was comforting! Kona was happy and got to play her little heart out! Thank you so much!”
15. Olivia S.
About: I have always had multiple dogs in my family. I am an animal lover! I now have a dog of my own, an almost 2-year-old Goldendoodle named Waffles. He loves all people and animals! I work on Monday-Thursday, so my Fridays are open as well as most weekends. I am very flexible during the week if needed as well. I work close to home on Monday-Thursday and come home on my lunch break to let my dog out. My apartment has a dog park with an enclosed fence. We take Waffles there daily. It is very safe and there is usually only one animal at a time. We live in a safe, family-friendly area.
16. Sara O.
“Sara did a great job with my dog Ocean. She took him in short notice and dealt with all that comes with a 4 month old puppy. I would recommend her highly.”
17. Ezequiel R.
“I have known Ezequiel for over 8 years. He always takes great care of his two Corgis and I would trust him to take care of my pets and anyone’s else’s! He is attentive and ensures they have a safe a loving home to play, eat and sleep.”
18. Marisa G.
“Marisa has cared for my two labs a number of times, for days at a time and overnights as well. One of my labs is of older age (90 lbs.) and the other lab has a history of seizures (80 lbs.). All in all, not the easiest dogs to care for with their specific needs and being large dogs. Not only did she help them get plenty of exercise outside and take them for walks throughout the day, but she administered medication and sent plenty of updates so I knew they were in great care. Would highly recommend Marisa for your pet needs!”
19. Jessica M.
About: I've grown up around dogs and have a passion for animals. I have succeeded in training my current puppy in multiple commands and managed to have him fully housebroken by the age of 4 months. I typically work from home Mondays and Fridays and can check on pets at regular intervals. Occasionally I may run 1-2 hour long errands while the dogs play in the back yard. My current dog is a loving 4 month old Great Pyrenees/GSD mix who has a wonderful temperament and is a perfect early socialization experience for nervous dogs. There is a decent-sized fenced in yard for dogs to run around in complete with a plastic kiddie pool to help cool off on Sunny days. While inside the dogs will be regulated to the kitchen and living areas.
