“Caroline and her husband Brian are wonderful people and dog lovers. Our golden doodle stayed the night at their lovely home and was treated as their own while we went fishing. We are so happy to make new friends and have such a wonderful option for our doodle when fishing at Truman Lake! Highly recommend!!”
“Meghan was very accommodating with my senior special needs dog. He needed the comfort of someone's home. Her children were an added bonus because he loves kids. We don't travel often so being able to find a place Woody felt comfortable as well as myself helped relieve the anxiety of traveling. Our drop off and pick up time needed to be flexible and Meghan was very available via text to and work with those times on the fly. If we have to travel again I will feel comfortable leaving Woody with her.”
“Rebecca P. did a great job watching Dasha (9 week old puppy) for 4 days and 3 nights. She was very attentive and caring for the needs of a young puppy, and was great about sharing lots of updates and photos daily., which provided an appreciated peace of mind. Also was great in accommodating a late pickup when I had a change in my plans. Would definitely recommend and will definitely plan on using this option again.”
“Shaye was absolutely wonderful! Super responsive and gave us updates throughout the entire stay. My dog got along super well with her sweet pups. They had an absolute blast! I highly recommend Shaye :)”
“I was nervous about leaving our dog for a 9-day stay, when the most we had ever been away from her was for 3 days. But Jenn took wonderful care of our dog, sent daily pictures and updates, and I soon realized our dog was having a vacation of her own. From other dogs to play with, a fenced backyard and doggy door, our dog lived her best life. Thanks Jenn for taking excellent care of Ellie!”
“This was our first time leaving our pup with a sitter and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with McKenzie after meeting her. She sent regular updates and made us feel very comfortable while we were away for a week. McKenzie took incredible care of our dog and I would highly recommend her. Our dog loved her and we definitely look forward to having her as our sitter again in the future!”
