“This is our second time using Casey as our dogs vacation when we go on vacation. We can tell our dog loves it through the constant photo updates she sends ♥️ she truly takes care of our dog like we would and makes her part of the family. We are so glad to have found our sitter for our girl! Thank you Casey can't wait to book you again!”
“When we picked up our dog, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring home-away-from-home for their dog.”
“My dogs LOVE Deb and Ralph. On the way in the driveway, they knew where they were (after only one 3-night stay a month and a half before) and were so excited they couldn’t wait. Deb sent pictures and videos of them rolling and playing on the floor with Ralph, and even stitched a hole in the beddie! These are DOG PEOPLE for sure!”
“Our dog had an amazing time! She didn’t want to leave😂 Eman sent lots of pictures throughout the day which was really nice! She is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about dogs. Will definitely book again!”
“We use Brenda exclusively. She is the best! She sends photos and updates and we always know they are well cared for. Sissy runs in when we get there as if to let everyone know she has arrived. This confirms to me she loves staying with Brenda. I’m so glad we found her.”
“I cannot say enough about Krystal and her family! Truly the best dog sitter I could ever dream up!! She loved our sweet poochie like her own! She sent me daily updates with pictures and details about how he was doing, and what fun activities they were doing with him! She has a gorgeous area in her home dedicated to doggy sitting, and it is just lovely. They took him on walks and puppy stroller rides when the pavement was too hot for his little feet. They worked on his tricks with him, they even bought him a new toy just for the fun of it! I had no doubts that he was being well cared for, and that was so comforting to me while we were traveling. I will 100% use Krystal again, and recommend her to everyone!!”
“She was absolutely incredible with the whole process. She sent me pictures and updates of my dog and took the best care of her. I definitely will be booking again and I recommend her to anyone who needs to take their pet someone for boarding. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Willow. I can’t wait to book again!”
“I had surgery so I found Chantel to watch my two dogs for two weeks. Well, what turned into two weeks turned into four weeks total and Chantel was very gracious to keep my two dogs for another two weeks, which was quite unexpected. Chantel did a very good job in meeting their needs and keeping me informed of how they were doing. I would highly recommend Chantel in the future.”
“This was my first time leaving Goose with someone I didn’t know and Falen made it so easy! Updated me along the way with pics and videos and was so easy to check in with. I would 100 percent use her again and so thankful to be able to leave him with someone who loves on him like I would!”
About: I've had dogs for my whole life and I absolutely love them. I love all dogs too, big or small. I love playing with them and running and walking them. Dog cuddles are definitely the best to me. I am currently a preschool teacher, but I will be done each day around 12:30. My hours are flexible, especially in the summer and during school breaks. I am able to work around all kinds of schedules at this time. I have my own dog and I take her on multiple walks daily and make sure to play with her too and make sure that she gets plenty of daily exercise. I also walk my neighbors two dogs daily Monday-Friday and make sure that they get good exercise and go potty for her in the middle of each day. I have even done check in visits with another one of my neighbors that have cats and I made sure to clean their litter boxes and refresh any empty food bowls or water bowls too while they were out of town.
“We had a great experience with John and his wife. They kept us informed and our dogs clearly had a great time and were well cared for. They have lots of backyard space for our dogs to run which they need.”
About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 3 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 6 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or I can just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!
About: I have loved animals since I was a little girl. Having grown up around dogs of all sizes, I’m committed to taking the best care of your fur baby. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust! I currently work from home all week & am available pretty much all day for potty breaks, feedings and play time! I live near a lot of trails and I love walking companions! I have one small dog who would absolutely love a play partner. I live in a very walkable location and my husband and I are constantly taking our dog for walks, another companion would be great! My schedule is so flexible so I am able to accommodate any specific needs!
“Alexis watched my dog Cassie while I was in town for a few days. She was communicative in the lead up and during the stay. She took great care of Cassie and I would definitely book with her again next time I'm in town.”
“Maddie did an amazing job and sent regular photos and updates! It was a relief while I was out of town to know he was well taken care of and happy. She went above and beyond and I will definitely be contacting her again for future stays and walks!! :)”
“It was great being able to leave my Husky overnight with Trooper. He was very friendly, flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, communication was great, and I knew my boy was in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

Most importantly—she took absolutely outstanding care of my dog. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, photos, and even a few videos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My dog can be a little anxious in new environments, but Lexie treated her like family—patient, attentive, and full of love. When I picked up my pup, she was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy to trust someone with your fur baby, but Lexie has earned my full trust and gratitude. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
