“Marie and Jorge have been our trusted dog sitters for over 2 years and have been consistently amazing. This stay they went above and beyond, graciously agreeing to keep our pup an extra night when travel plans changed last minute. We appreciate them so much!”
4. Kaylee J.
“We LOVE Kaylee! I was nervous to leave our dog because of some behavior issues I’d been watching and she put me at ease. She watched him closely, had no problem at all and the issue was actually MY nerves not his. If she’s available book her! You won’t be disappointed and your dog will be well cared for.”
5. Tom G.
“My pup Champ had a wonderful week with Allie and Tom. I got updates on his activities a couple of times a day along with pictures of him playing and napping. Next vacation I will definitely call them again to take care of Champ. I highly recommend Allie and Tom!”
6. Jan H.
“I chose Jan because of her reviews and I am so happy I did! Jan took such great care of my Izzy girl! She sent me multiple photos throughout both days, including one of Izzy sleeping on her lap! Jan is worth the 30 minute drive for me and she will be my first choice anytime I need someone to watch Izzy!”
7. Claire G.
“Right after the meet and greet with Claire and Jim, I knew I chose the right sitters for Domino! If I felt comfortable in their home, I knew Domino would too. Their spacious fenced in backyard was such a plus! They sent texts and photos of my happy pup looking right at home. What a comfort knowing Domino was his normal self in their loving care! I can’t thank them enough!”
8. Isabel F.
“Isabel has been awesome with our Buddy. We have used her always and have been very happy with her. She truly is an animal lover and will make your furry family member feel right at home. My dog is an older big dog and she always takes extra special care of his needs. Isabel sends pictures and updates through the entire stay. We will continue to use her as long as she will have us!”
9. Kaishin K.
“Kaishin and family are sooo nice! They showered our dog with love and care. She sent daily updates of all the fun and snuggles they shared. Can’t wait to use them again for our next trip!”
10. Mark & Elizabeth Y.
“Thank you Mark and Elizabeth for taking such great care of Baxter while we were gone celebrating our anniversary. Thank you for the pictures of him having a great time. It’s great to know that there are people that will open up their homes and take in other peoples animals instead of having to leave them in a boarding house or somewhere else that they may not get very much attention or affection and play. You guys are awesome and we appreciate every thing . Jason and Dawn ( Baxter’s mommy and daddy)”
11. Miranda W.
“Miranda is wonderful with my dog. This is the 2nd time we've boarded with her, and he gets so excited when we get to her house. She sends lots of photos and updates.”
12. Candy T.
“Candy was absolutely fantastic. I could tell from out first meeting that she was going to be such a good fit for our pup! She took excellent care of him during his stay, treating him like one of the family. He was her little shadow by the time we picked him up and we could tell he had really enjoyed his stay. Candy is quick to respond and provided updates during his stay. We will not hesitate to leave him in her care in the future.”
13. Natasha L.
“Natasha always takes such good care of our dog Teddy (since 2019)! He has a blast at her house with her other pets and family. Whenever we leave town we are confident he will be taken care of and loved on, which is a great feeling!”
14. Kate W.
“Kate was AMAZING! She was so flexible as I had a last minute booking! She sent great videos and pictures throughout Astros stay and he looked like he was just right at home! I would 100 percent trust her again to watch Astro! Highly recommend!!”
15. Danielle V.
“Danielle was awesome! It was our first time leaving our 4 month old puppy and we were nervous. Danielle made us feel so comfortable about it all. She was warm and welcoming at drop off, gave us plenty of updates and pictures, and totally put our minds at ease. Our pup came home as happy as we left him. Her family gave him all the love and snuggles as if he was their own. Thank you so much Danielle!!”
16. Sarah P.
“Sarah was very thorough with details and understanding of our our elderly dog's needs. She was flexible and communicated well. Thanks for loving on our sweetie!”
17. Kirstin P.
“Kirstin watched our 2 dogs during a 3 night stay and we were extremely impressed with our dogs’ stay. She is very detail oriented, took the time to get to know our dogs before the stay began, followed our routines to a tee (even if they were different form hers) communicated quickly, and sent many updates and pictures of the dogs. We truly felt like they were in great hands and when we picked them up, they were exhausted. They definitely got some good play time! Overall, we would definitely book with Kirstin again!”
18. Emily Ann C.
“Right away at the “meet & Greet” I knew my Domino would be at home with Emily and her sweet Schnauzer! Domino is a senior dog and Emily accepted that. He fit in great with the family! Such a comfortable feeling that your special pet is being so cared for! ‘TIL next time Emily! THANK YOU!”
19. Steffani D.
“Steffani did a wonderful job with my nervous, elderly dog. She did whatever necessary and reasonable to accommodate Jubie. She was exceptionally responsive to my initial inquiries and allowed us a meet-and-greet ahead of Jubie's stay. She sent me pictured updates about Jubie with pertinent information. She and her family were magnitudes above settings I have used with other dogs. She and her family (including her pets) were extremely welcoming and seemed used to having guests. If she would have me, I would board with her again. She attended to all of Jubie's needs.”
20. Susan M.
“This was Nemo’s second stay with Susan and I could see from photos he was having a good time. He was healthy and happy after an extended stay and the chance to have other dogs to play with. I’ll definitely check with Susan next time I’m needing someone to take care of Nemo.”
