Nick was excellent and I recommend him. Very caring, prompt communicator and made time for walking/playing with my dog (and best friend). Nick kept him safe (which is always my top priority), he was well fed and sent at least 2 updates with photos on the walk everyday. There was another dog present in the house (at least part of the time) but there was not supposed to be other dogs present; Nick explained the situation and I did not have concerns with the other dog (a smaller-size puppy) and they got along very well. I will definitely ask Nick to care for Cuper again.

Jayla was awesome! She kept me updated on my pup throughout the day. I get very worried about her but seeing videos of her being happy and playful kept my mind at ease. My dog also got a new collar the other day. I couldn’t figure out exactly how to adjust it correctly. When I picked my dog up her collar was all fixed. Thanks Jayla!

Maryori was the perfect choice for our fur baby Bentley. She was very warm and welcoming, and she made our boy feel right at home. He spent his birthday with her and she went out of her way to buy him a few gifts and treats which we appreciated very much! I will definitely book her again.

What a great experience with my first time using a dog sitter for my very laid back dog, Lucy! The family listened and understood exactly what Lucy needed to have a great time! She absolutely loved this family, & so did I. They made me feel comfortable and relaxed about leaving her in their care! We have already scheduled the next visit!

Jacob went above and beyond while watching my bernedoodle, Finn. Finn just had intestinal surgery and required special care and medications. I could tell that Finn really bonded with Jacob. Communication was great while I was abroad. Finn was happy and in great shape when I picked him up. Thanks!

Jennifer and her family took awesome care of our puppy (a 3 month old Dachshund). It is apparent from the second you meet Jennifer that she is a lover of all furry creatures and we felt immediately at ease. While we were away, Jennifer sent frequent pictures and updates of our puppy and his activities so we knew what he was up to and that he was being loved and cared for. We feel lucky to have found Jennifer - 11/10!!

Was very happy to know my dog was in good hands. Consistent updates and pictures from Emiline nade sure i was kept anxiety free and in the loop during lokis stay. Pictures showed him visibly comfortable at her place. Hope to have him stay over again the next time I travel. THANK YOU SO MUCH for being accommodating not just to my dog but also to me.

Matt and Leanna took care of our two dogs for two days while we went away. Amazing is an understatement. The dogs were so comfortable and Matt went the extra mile by taking the dogs to a big park twice! They're still tired out which was relieving after traveling with two toddlers. We will absolutely contact them again when we need a dog sitter. Thank you so much!!

It was a First time for me to leave my dog without us and at the beginning it was little stressful. But with Aliaksandra and her beautiful family all stress and worry was gone. 100 stars to her not five. Special thanks to her and her Mother. They really took great care of Bubu and made it feel as part of family. Thank you so much Aleksiandra and of course high recommendations from me. ❤️❤️❤️
