“Mossy was very cared for during her stay with Christine and Steven. She got frequent walks and even a bath! We would definitely have Mossy stay with Christine and Steven again.”


“You can tell from the second you meet Hailey that she loves dogs and is going to take good care of your pup. Murphy is an old laid back guy who just needs some love and attention, and Hailey made sure he got it. She sent pictures of him relaxing on his dog bed - his favorite activity - each day, which made me feel much better about having to leave town on work travel. I highly recommend leaving your pup with Hailey if you need to travel.”


“Paul and Arnel are the best puppy sitters. I love all the pictures and daily updates they send when Spanky is with them and I always know my pup is in good, caring hands.”


“Thank you for watching the lil Bean for me and taking such great photos.”


“Wendy truly found a home away from home while staying with Erin and her family. I loved getting snuggle updates every morning and Erin sent lots of pics throughout the day. Definitely will trust Erin again with our Wendy girl! So fortunate to have found such a good fit for our dog.”


“We couldn’t be more grateful to Katherine for taking care of Smokey like he was her own! She accepted our last-minute request without hesitation, which truly saved us. Throughout Smokey’s stay, Katherine kept us updated with pictures and messages, giving us peace of mind. She took him on walks around the neighborhood, and it was clear Smokey felt comfortable and happy in her care. Katherine has been amazing, and we will definitely be returning to her in the future. Highly recommend!”


“Emily and Bowie were such amazing hosts. I know my pup Chommy had a great time and felt right at home. I really enjoyed all of the pictures and videos Emily sent along the way! :)”


“Amy was so entirely welcoming to my sweet doggo, Mango. Great communication from the moment we first messaged until pickup. Amy was enthusiastic, very caring, a natural dog lover, and asked great questions. I will most definitely rebook and would recommend her, her family, and her home to anyone. Thank you for loving my Mango while I was away!”


“Maggie is awesome with my dog. He enjoys his time with her and her two dogs. Maggie sends lots of funny pictures and videos during his stays. She is a great help.”



“Jason took great care of my senior pup, Bentley. He sent me photo updates and made sure Bentley felt right at home while I was away. Thanks so much Jason!”


“Thank you for taking care of my babes on such short notice. They are peaceful and content right now. I look forward to them visiting with you again.”


“This was our first time having Eve as a dog sitter for our buddy Barnes. She is lovely, very caring and sent thorough updates throughout his stay. We will absolutely use Eve again when we need a sitter.”



“Very grateful to Holly and her family for taking such good care of our two little pups. They have a great time, were well cared for and exercised and came home happy and safe.”


“Erica was great! Took amazing care of Buzzy and welcomed him right into her home. She was very communicative and sent great updates of their adventures throughout the whole stay.”



“Great experience with Stephanie. She did a great job communicating and taking care of our pooch over the weekend. Very happy with her care and stay! Thanks again!”


“Received updates pics and concern for my dog who had some Anxiety but overall he was happy when picked up and returned in a good mood. Thank you for caring for B!”


“We are fussy about our dog sitters as our pets are family. Lindsay and her dog Ernie provided a safe and nurturing environment for our dog Susanna. Lindsay is very knowledgeable in canine behavior. She took time at our meet before the stay to observe our dog asking important questions about her care and personality. We left Susanna in her care fully confident she would be in good hands. Susanna had multiple walks each day and plenty of outdoor time in the big back yard. She also lounged on the couch cuddling with Lindsay....what could be better?! We were updated via text and photo which made us feel even better about her placement. When we picked her up after our trip Lindsay bent down to say goodbye and Susanna gave her a sweet lick on the face...so dear. We will happily use Lindsay and Ernie again. Thank you!”


“Evita was very accommodating with changes to my schedule, great at communicating, and kept me updated with messages and adorable photos. It was a relief knowing my pup was in great hands. I’ll definitely book with her again!”


“On 8/22 we dropped off my Cody Ashley is an awesome person she take good cares of my Cody, she will the only person will care for my Cody from now when we can’t take my little man. Thank you Ashley.”


“The boys seemed bummed to leave, so I know they had a great time. Mark has a real way with dogs that is readily apparent upon meeting him. Highly recommend and will definitely utilize his services again (soon!)”
