“Ann-Marie was great! I was nervous about leaving my dog with anyone after having a bad experience and she did everything she could to make me feel comfortable and reassure me he would be okay. She was great at responding, sending up dates, and accommodating a last minute stay. I felt very comfortable being away and having our dog stay with her.”
“Thanks Lesley for taking such great care of my Josie. The pictures and the notes were great. She received such loving care we will certainly be return customers. Also thanks for your flexibility with my schedule and giving Josie a bath”
“We were blessed that Sorelwing agreed to keep our dog while we were on vacation for a week! We were so impressed that she sent us pictures of him and took him for walks even though it was one of the hottest weeks of the summer. Obi is a nervous dog and doesn’t eat well while we are away and she was kind enough to mix some wet food in so that he’d eat. He was very happy when we picked him up and appeared to have had a wonderful time with her family. I will definitely be calling on her to watch him again for us in the future. Thanks so, so much!”
“Ashlyn is the perfect pet sitter. She sent us plenty of pictures and videos as well as gave Alvin lots of loving attention. Her two playful fur babies kept Alvin entertained with lots of playful interaction which he loves. We felt at ease with Alvin in her care knowing he was in good hands and enjoying his stay.”
“She is amazing! She’s very friendly and extremely knowledgeable! She takes genuine interest in your pet and in making sure you’re both comfortable! 100% recommended and will rebook again!!”
“Ronda was absolutely wonderful with my Mila! She arranged a meeting prior to her stay so that Mila could get to know her. She sent pictures to me while I was away, and I’m fully confident that she spoiled Mila just as much as I do at home. I whole heartedly recommend Ronda, and am so very thankful to have found Mila’s home away from home ?”
“Brittney was awesome with my two very elderly babies. The pups came home in great spirits. Brittney went above and beyond to make them feel at home She was good at communicating and sent me pictures everyday. She extremely accommodating and flexible. We will definitely be using her services again.”

“Jessica was great with our XL American bully puppy, Mina. She shared us pictures and kept us updated during our vacation. When we picked her up, she didn’t want to leave! She had her own little vacation with the other puppies and our minds are at ease knowing she had a blast. I suggest Jessica for any dogs looking for a vacation of their own!”
“Brenda took great care of MACK, he was treated like he was her own dog. I appreciated the way she handled him. I couldn't have done anything better myself. We'll see her again next time I need help. Thanks, Gary”
