“Eli was awesome! My dog is somewhat shy but she took to Eli right away. Eli picked my furbaby up and once he was back to his home he sent a picture of my pooch and where she had her kennel setup. Skittles was able sit and stare out the windows, which she loves to do. I received plenty of pictures to put me at ease. Eli also had a camera setup so I could see my dog if I wanted!!! I’m super happy with Eli as he was on time for pickup and drop off and overall is a very nice person! I will definitely board my dog with Eli again!!!!”
“I could not recommend Kelly and Cal more enthusiastically! They took great care of our two babies, sent frequent updates including videos and pictures, were super responsive -- and were SO easy and flexible! I needed to add time to our scheduled visit and they happily rolled with that. Plus, I was a few minutes late picking up and they were fine with that too! Most importantly, our doggies were happy and healthy. Will definitely rebook!”
“I have booked with dogsitters before, but Crystal was the first dog sitter that was sooo detailed throughout the whole process. When I booked with her, she set up a zoom call to go over everything regarding my dog. I was soo amazed. She sent pictures everyday and assured me that Dallas was in good hands. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Great experience leaving Oliver with their family. The two of them were conscientious and considerate about understanding Oliver's needs and ensuring that I felt comfortable leaving him in their care while I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Oliver with them again!”
“Jeff took incredible care of my little man, Buster! My dog can have very unique needs (and moods) at times, and Jeff was incredibly patient and knowledgeable. I got updates every day, including his special treatment ? will definitely be asking Jeff to take care of Buster in the future!”

“Excellent service provided for our 4 month old German Shepherd over a four night stay. Sitter was patient, kind and very nice with our puppy. Would recommend to all family and friends for their overnight stay.”
“Nettie was so great with my dog, Marcie! She clearly has years of experience with dogs and that showed immediately during our first meeting. She made sure Marcie was comfortable enough before saying yes to the booking, which showed to me she clearly cared for the dog over just a paid opportunity. I was overseas for a trip and it was awesome to see videos of Marcie enjoying herself and being comfortable with the other dogs Nettie was boarding. We would definitely book with Nettie again!”
“Jessica was wonderful with Bruno. He was very excited coming into her home. She sent me pictures throughout the time he spent with her. Those pictures were very much appreciated. She was very complimentary of Bruno.”
“Amber is absolutely phenomenal as a dog sitter! She cared for my large dog, Kong, who has severe separation anxiety, for a week, and her exceptional care exceeded all my expectations. Amber's attentiveness to his special diet and numerous allergies was remarkable, ensuring that Kong was always safe and comfortable. She went above and beyond by sending frequent photos, videos, and detailed text updates, which provided me with immense peace of mind knowing Kong was in the best hands. Amber's kindness, patience, and genuine love for dogs were evident in every interaction. She created a loving and secure environment for Kong, helping him feel at ease and happy. Her dedication and professionalism are unmatched, and I am incredibly grateful for her outstanding service. Amber is not just a dog sitter; she is a true dog whisperer who brings joy and relief to both pets and their owners. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch care for their furry family members. Thank you, Amber, for being a beacon of excellence in dog sitting!”
“Qasim was professional responsive and accommodating… I love the fact that he was open to a meet and greet as some other caretakers are opposed to doing such.. We were both able to see if we were a great fit for one another’s needs.. He provided pics and videos daily during my 6 day vacation.. This helped eased my mind a great deal knowing that my fur baby has separation anxiety.. In every video I could see the happiness all over my lil Lady as she wagged her tail through the trail they walked.. I particularly liked the pics of her getting her favorite thing ever, her belly rubbed😁… Qasim was great and I would definitely use him again. Thank you for taking care of Lady for me..”
