“John was wonderful with our elderly dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. John was above and beyond our expectations, he even gave us some new ideas to keep our dog more active. I don’t think our dog was ready to leave, thought he was on vacation too. I highly recommend John you won’t be disappointed.”


“Henry and Cherlye Ann were amazing sitters! I felt good as soon as we shock hands in their beautiful vegetable garden (thanks for the rosemary and basil sprigs!) Penny was immediately comfortable and settled right in. They were very responsive and kept me up to date on Penny’s stay. HIGHLY RECOMMEND as sitters; it was very comforting to know they only take on one dog at a time as Penny can be wary of new dogs in close quarters. I know Penny will be back…and honestly, she didn’t seem too keen to leave!”


“This was my first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous. Lydia was amazing with my pups , she sent updates, videos and pictures the whole time. We will definitely be using her for all our trips out of town from now on. I would give 10 stars if I could!!!”


“Shannon was a superhost for our dog, who has separation anxiety, but in a short time Shannon had her relaxed and chilling on the couch. Shannon was both understanding and accommodating with a change in our schedule. We appreciated her experience and loved the pictures.”


“Always the best care! Thank you!”


“Thatcher had a great time and Tiffany was a great host!”


“Leaving my pupper with Angela was a very comforting experience. My puppy has not had many interactions with other dogs, but she got along well with hers! She sent me many cute pictures and updated me on my puppy's comfort level. I will definitely be leaving my upper with her again:)”


“Paula is absolutely wonderful! We couldn't have left our fur baby in better hands. She cared for him flawlessly, provided lots of snuggles and love, and gave us regular update with photos. We will definitely be using her again as our pet's home away from home!”


“Charlotte is always so good. We have used her several times for long weekends, daycare, etc.. She communicates with us and sends us lots of pictures which I love. I couldn’t recommend her more!”


“Emily was very easy to work with and communicated well with us. She sent us updates each day along with pictures which was great! I felt good about leaving our dogs and I definitely feel like there were well taken care of! I would book with Emily again!”


“I was so happy I found Linda and David. They spoiled my baby more than I did. LOL. But traveling without worrying about my puppy was such a relief. I received so many wonderful pictures and they even washed his bed for me. He made some friends and slept well. What a blessing they were and now, I will only call them when I need care for my baby. Thank you Linda & David.”


“We are grateful to have found Donna to care for our dog during our vacation. Donna provided updates on how our dog was doing and pictures showing her receiving great care and attention.”



“This is truly a professional service where I know our dogs have plenty of space and are in good, knowledgeable hands. I don’t think there is a better/more qualified boarder!!!”


“Our Maggie stayed with Taylor while we were gone for spring break. She had a great time and was well cared for. It’s important to me as a Dog Mom to know that my girl is well cared for while I am away and she came home wore out from all the playing with her new fur friends that she met.”


“Deena and her husband took great care of our dog Nutmeg. We received photos and updates everyday, which kept us at ease throughout our vacation. Nutmeg was a very happy dog when we picked her up. Deena and her husband are great people and would highly recommend them to care for your animals.”



“Crystal was a fantastic sitter and Bart had a great stay with her. She had great communication, and was thankfully able to be really flexible with us as our plans were changing by the day. We would definitely leave any of our pets in her care again, without hesitation!”


“Communicated well. Worked well with our schedule. Very pleased with service. Would use her services again. This was April’s first time being boarded and considering that she is a puppy we appreciated the understanding and patience Sarah provided.”


“This was our first time using Erin and Matthew for our two dogs when we went out of town for several days. The communication was great and our dogs looked happy and healthy upon pickup. I felt like my boys were in good hands, we will be using them in the future when needed!”


“I can’t say enough about Maribel and the care she gave my dog Jolene during her stay. It’s always hard to find good caring people to take care of your fur baby but Maribel went above and beyond. I really loved getting the daily pictures and updates. Will definitely use her from here on out!!!”


“This is our third experience and we have to say our dog loves sitting here with Pamela and her fur children. Pamela is caring and responsive, while her dog Gunner is likely our dogs best friend. Book your sitting experience here, i assure your pet will be in good hands and company.”
