Tim was so good with Duckie! he kept us updated with pictures and letting us know what Duckie was up to! Tim took him on plenty of walks which our puppy loved. Duckie also had a great time with his new friend Gabby! I would definitely recommend Tim, he was great!

Lauren was absolutely amazing with my 16-year-old Chihuahua, Ralph! This was his first time staying with a sitter instead of family or friends, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Ralph did great—even around her two much larger dogs, which was such a relief! Lauren created a calm, safe environment, and her communication was top-notch. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend!

Björn had an amazing stay with Tatyana and her family. He especially got along really well with Biscuit, the resident pupper. Tatyana kept us updated with how Björn was doing. She also made sure he took his medicine as we instructed. That was probably the best part about Tatyana as a sitter: she made sure she was taking care of our dog exactly as we would. 10/10 will definitely be using her next time we need a sitter.

Leslie is so patient and kind! It sounded like my dog was a little more rowdy than usual (suspecting due to new medication she was placed on) and Leslie appropriately reached out to check if I had tips or tricks to make her feel more comfortable. She reassured me many times to not worry, which was nice to hear she had the situation under control! Would definitely trust Leslie again to watch my dog!

Toby, my dearest little 8lb. Cheweenie fur baby does wonderfully with Pam and her small fur baby crew! I am so grateful to have Pam and her fur family to care for Toby. He has a blast. Pam always goes above and beyond for Toby. Moreso, Pam is very intuitive and provides for Toby his likes and preferences such as his favorite sunspot, placed bed in front of heater vent, food preferences. Huge she let's him sleep with her at night as that is what he is used to with me. Upon picking Toby up, although he is always happy to see me I can very much see he has bonded with Pam and her sweet pups and cats, making his stay very nice and positive experience. Pam and her fur babies have become like extended family as Auntie Pam and his fur cousins ❤️

A wonderful experience! We were nervous as this was our first time boarding our dog, but at the meet and greet Jacob had each of his dogs meet ours one on one. The dogs all got along, and I think ours was excited to have other dogs to play with! She was with them for three nights, and was well cared for. She came home happy and healthy - it is such a relief knowing we have a future resource for times we can’t bring her with us, and it was so nice knowing she was in a home with a big fenced backyard, instead of in a kennel. Thank you for taking such great care of our Daisy girl!

Bailey had a great time at Lindsay's house. Her daughter Kate was very involved as well! She got lots of love and play time with her new friends. We wanted to choose a dog sitter who was affectionate and a home body, as are we. This was our first time we left our " baby' at home and the daily videos helped us miss her a little bit less. We will definitely bring Bailey to Lindsay's house next time we leave town.
