Lila was wonderful when I had to leave my dog at her apartment while I worked a 24h shift. We did a meet n greet the week prior. She was able to accommodate my work schedule. She provided constant updates and re-assurance that my pup was doing well. Highly recommend Lila she is great!!

Gisell was by far the best sitter I have ever had. She took great care of my baby and I would absolutely recommend her. She was very flexible with the drop off an pick up time. I forgot to bring dog food and she had no problem going to pick it up. I will be calling Gisell every time I need a sitter. Thanks again Gisell!

Michelle is amazing! I can always trust her with my 16 year old pug, Odin. He’s a little more on the special needs side of things (frequent potty breaks) and making sure he doesn’t get into anything now that he’s mostly blind and deaf. Her home is so tidy and has a great fenced in backyard. I highly recommend Michelle for any boarding needs!

My dog gets excited every time we pull up to Sarah’s house. For the first ever boarding experience-for my dog and me- Sarah provided daily communications with updates and pics, which reassured me that my dog was in great hands and was being well cared for. I’m grateful to have found such a caring and reliable petsitter who my dog loves.

Amy and Kris went above and beyond for our fur baby, Dexter! We were a bit nervous as he hasn't done a lot of doggy daycare, but Amy worked really hard to make Dexter feel comfortable and right at home. She sent us detailed updates with photos, which really helped my anxiety, and it was great to see Dexter clearly having a great time. I would 100% recommend leaving your fur babies in Amy and Kris's care!

Hilary is great! She is wonderful with dogs. Our hound felt comfortable with her immediately. In fact, he didn’t want to leave and come back home with us. That’s a sign of how wonderful Hilary is. She walked him, kept him on his schedule and provided updates with fun pictures.

Damacia was excellent to work with. We met her a few days before we left on vacation. Very clean and well behaved other pups. Nice environment for our younger pup. She updated us through the time Maggie spent there and was great about meeting us to pick her up. We would highly recommend Damacia for your pet sitting needs!
