Yue is great! My dog stayed with her for 4 days. She updated me with pictures and videos and detailed information about the walks, feed and my dog emotional behaviour during my absence… she was super kind! I definitely recommend Yue and I will certainly consider Yue in the future to take care of my dog!

Laurie was amazing!!!! It was my first time leaving my puppy with someone else and I felt very confident Jelly Bean was in good hands. She was consistently communicating with me pictures and updates that brought smiles to my face. Her house is the perfect paradise for puppers. Extra points for Laurie for handling puppy energy and antics!

Michelle is wonderful. We were apprehensive about leaving Remmy with her for 4 days, as this was his first time being left with a sitter. However, she put our worries at ease with her quick communication, flexibility, and care. Remmy seemed relaxed and taken care of upon pickup. She is a great person and will definitely take care of your pup as if it were her own. We will definitely go back to Michelle again for our future trips.

I highly recommend Danny. He took really good care of my dog and was thoughtful with his daily photos. I also appreciate his calm demeanor, it made me feel comfortable leaving her (my dog) in his environment. I also appreciate the fact I told Danny it was my dog's birthday and he bought her some treats to celebrate when I couldn't.

Vivian went above and beyond for our dog's visit. She sent us photos and videos everyday of our pup going on beach adventures. He was a tired and content boy at the end of the visit.

Michele is an amazing sitter! My dog Baxter has anxiety so he is a high maintenance client. She was great at making him feel safe and comfortable in her home. I didn’t have to worry as he was in good hands. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her.

Jason is fantastic! I can’t recommend him enough! Our cattle dog Ruby stayed with Jason for three weeks while we were abroad and she was so happy and well cared for. Jason and his family showered her with love, daily walks, and top-notch care. Ruby can be shy and nervous, but she took to Jason right away, he is a true dog whisperer. Jason is fantastic with communication and really easy to work with. He was able to accommodate an oversight on my part and adjust our dates last minute, we greatly appreciated the flexibility! We are so thankful to have found Jason and will certainly use him again as our favorite pet sitter!

We had a great experience with Carol! My dog usually gets pretty upset with me whenever I leave him with a sitter, but I could tell he had a great time and got lots of walks. Carol sent many great pictures which made me able to relax on my trip knowing he was happy. Will definitely book her again. Cannot recommend enough. :)

Margaret was really communicative and responsive throughout the whole boarding process. She sent us daily pics and updates about how our furry daughter was doing. This was our first time boarding, so we were a little nervous, but Margaret made the process doable. We would definitely board with Margaret again!

They took care of my 7 year old Boston Terrier. They were accommodating with the drop off time, early in the morning, before leaving on our trip. They played with him in their really nice backyard space. Jackson seemed to really like it back there in the grass. Also went above and beyond to send me pics and videos of his stay. I would recommend them both. Thank you
