Leslie was awesome with my pup Lady! She brought her on walks, gave her some rice so she would eat her food and lots of cuddles! Would definitely book with her again! (:

Carisa did a wonderful job. She took really good care of my dog Simba. She was really attentive, and everything went off without a hitch. I could tell Simba was comfortable and happy, and it just gave me so much peace of mind. Overall, I’m really grateful for how smoothly it all went.” I would highly recommend her.

Carla is the best! We had never trusted anyone to fully board our puppy (Ruth) before, but Carla knocked it out of the park. We vacationed for over a week and Carla sent us photo and video updates frequently. She was very inquisitive about Ruth's habits and how she acted at home, and worked to be as amenable as possible. The living area both in and outside the house was so dog friendly, and she was willing to let Ruth go over a few times for playdates to get comfortable before staying over. Just an extremely pleasant experience, her flexibility and comfort/skill with dogs put her leaps and bounds ahead of any dog boarding experience we could've hoped for.

Christine is an excellent sitter, and I look forward to booking her again. My dog, Bentley, is my world and this was the first time, he was going to stay with a non-relative. I was nervous how he would do, but after returning from my vacay, I brought home a happy & healthy dog. His overall demeanor was enough for me to know that he was well taken care of and looked after. Also, Christine’s dog, Chloe is a sweet gentle gal, and it was easy for Bentley who has only-child syndrome to get along with her.

Katie and her family kept Tank warm and happy during the crazy cold weather while we were on vacation! He walks in like he owns the place which means we don't worry about him a bit. Appreciate your excellent care.

Another great time, pick up and drop off went well. Finley has such a good time going on walks, explorering the neighbor hood and playing with kiddos. We get updates and photos everyday showing all the fun Finley has. We definitely found our regular sitter. Thank you!

We were so thankful that Autumn was available to watch our boy for the second time over the holidays. She sent a bunch of pictures and videos that showed what a fun time he was having and how happy and comfortable he was. She even picked him up and dropped him off - can't beat curbside service! Highly recommend!

April and her Husband did an amazing job, to be honest I was super worried to be away from Lisa for 6 days for the first time, but April gave me comfort sending photos and letting me know what was Lisa up to, just seeing Lisa in the photos made me feel so much better, when I picked up Lisa, I found her to be clean and healthy just as the first day I dropped her. it was the reviews that made me choose April, and I'm happy to add my own review. Definitely will choose April for my upcoming trips. THANK YOU APRIL =)

We couldn’t be happier about the care our greyhound Steely Dan received from Derek and his family while we were on a 3-week vacation. During the time we were away we regularly received updates and photos that assured us Steely was being made to feel at home. Derek has a large dog, Ellie, who is quite friendly, and there were no issues with Steely and Ellie spending time together. Steely is sensitive to thunderstorms, and the meds we provided were administered appropriately with no issues. Finally, when we picked Steely up, he seemed relaxed and content. We always felt confident he was in exceedingly capable hands.

Dorothy was wonderful to work with. The communication was great and I was very comfortable leaving my dog in her care, I highly recommend her! I've had other sitters and it was normal for my dog to be stressed out and not eat food for a day or two. Much to my surprise, my dog ate normally right from the start which is a huge testament to how well Dorothy nurtured her and helped her relax.

Tyler did a great job taking care of my two dogs. He played with them every day and made sure they got plenty of enrichment, and made sure to send a lot of pictures and useful updates. He was also very flexible and kind when a flight delay caused us to need to push the pick up time a lot later. I highly recommend Tyler and only have good things to say about him as a dog sitter. We would happily work with him again in the future!
