“We had a great experience with Mckenzie! This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter, so we were a little nervous, but she made us feel so much better.

We really appreciate how well she took care of them and would definitely book with her again!”

Carolyn and her family are the best sitters I could ever hope for. My dog gets so excited to go to their home and I know she’s always having a good time because Carolyn sends regular photos and updates. I felt confident my pup was in good hands when I went on a one month trip. I would recommend Carolyn and her family to anyone looking for a dog sitter you can trust!
Emily was great to work with! She was helpful in working with our schedule to meet and great as well as with drop-off and pick-up. She provided updates and photos of Charlie throughout the weekend that assured us Charlie was in good hands. So thankful for the care she provided!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
