“Best dog boarding experience ever! Happy dog, happy pet parents! How can you beat a family of 4 totally focused on your pet. Our 10 yr old was thrilled to find there were 2 boys to keep our Daisy cuddled and loved. Jill and Chad are great - pic updates, great communication. We WILL be using them whenever we travel. This was like leaving our dog with best friends. Thank you so very much. Your family is so appreciated!”

“This was the first time I had a sitter watch my dog for an overnight stay. I was nervous but after communicating with Melanie and during the meet and greet I was put at ease. While Shiloh was staying with Melanie and her family I was completely comfortable. Melanie provided daily updates via txt, pictures, and videos and was extremely responsive to my questions/comments. I will definitely use Melanie again and highly recommend her.”

“Cali was an excellent sitter for our beloved dog Maya. She was easy to communicate with including when we ended our trip early and picked our dog up earlier than expected. She clearly cares about dogs and our dog came home happy and tired so I know she had a great time. She sent great pictures and we would definitely trust her to care for our dog in the future. I highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a caring and friendly sitter.”
“Jennifer is *amazing*!!! Our puppy stayed with jennifer for about 2 weeks while my boyfriend and I were away during his military training. She was so sweet, patient, caring, and kind. She sent daily photos and responded to any and all texts promptly! Our puppy had SO much fun with jennifer and her family and seemed to fit right in like she was a member of Jennifer’s own family! Jennifer has a large back yard where the dogs played daily and tons of toys for play time! There was also lots of snuggle time for naps after play time! We will definitely use jennifer in the future for any daycare or boarding needs! Thank you, Jennifer!! We couldn’t be more grateful for you!”

“We first went to Melissa's for a meet and greet. Later I brought my dogs back to her house for a 4 night stay. They were pulling me towards her gate happy to be there. They liked the fenced yard, being able to explore freely. Melissa sent us a picture and short update everyday. I picked up very happy pups on Monday. Highly recommend Melissa.”

Paris is truly a Gem🥰 I never have any issues with booking, she is always accommodating; even when I book last minute, she is thorough, patient and always updating you with photos. Initially I have never used a dog sitter and I gave Paris a chance and I have used her consistently ever since ! I’m sure that’s Leo’s second home at this point lol Thank you so much Paris for your amazing services.
Loki had such a great time staying with Tarina! She took great care of him, and it was clear that he felt comfortable and happy during his stay she also provided updates on loki. I really appreciate the care and attention she gave him. I’ll definitely be booking with Tarina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Briana and Isaiah took such great care of Ruby! I really appreciate how attentive and caring they were with her. They kept me informed when they noticed that Ruby wasn’t feeling well and even gave her a bath to make sure she was comfortable and taken care of. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. They treated Ruby with so much love and care, and I truly appreciate everything they did for her. I would definitely recommend Briana and Isaiah to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby!
We had such a wonderful experience with our puppy sitter! She took amazing care of our two puppies while we were out of town and treated them like they were her own. She kept us updated, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such loving hands. When we picked them up, they were happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. She even mentioned how sweet and cuddly they were, which made us smile! We are so grateful for the love and attention she gave Benji and Stormi. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to watch their pets. Thank you again for taking such great care of our babies!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Abingdon home-away-from-home, packing:

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
