“Heather was a great sitter. This was Alister’s first time being away, she made his transition very smooth. She provided pictures and updates regularly which was very comforting to me knowing he was being well care for. I will use Heather again.”


“My boxer pup, Jax stayed with Sara for a week and I can’t be more happier that I chose her. Sara was attentive, accommodating and most of all so loving to Jax. I could not recommend anyone better…..bonus that she has pups of her own so she is very aware of the pups needs. Thank you Sara!”


“Azure took care of my older dog (9 year old) and my puppy (7 months old) when our family was out of town for a much needed vacation. She was fantastic to work with! She made sure to do a meet and greet so that my pups could meet her pups to ensure that it would be a good fit for all involved. While I was gone, she sent me picture updates every day (sometimes videos!). I love getting pics while I'm away; it really sets my mind at ease and I appreciate her taking the time to keep in touch with me. When my flight was delayed on the way home, she was flexible and kept my dogs an extra 6 hours or so past when I was originally planning on being home and she was great through all of it. Absolutely would recommend Azure and will be reaching out to her when I need pet sitting services in the future!”


“Anne was hands down the best sitter we have ever had! Our family was traveling out of state in the middle of a huge snow storm. There were many changes to our schedule and itinerary and Anne was able to accommodate us every step of the way. She sent tons of pics and updates for us that set our minds at ease. I highly recommend using her services and we look forward to having her pet sit again and again!”


“Jill was a great help taking care of my cat, she was attentive, reliable, and I can’t thank her enough for sitting so last minute after my previous sitter canceled. I would definitely recommend boarding with Jill.”


“Our dogs received excellent care while staying with Cheree. I highly recommend her, she was very loving and attentive to our dogs. We received regular updates with photos during their time with her. She even changed her plans on her birthday to accommodate our timeframe to pick up our dogs! We truly appreciated the extra mile she went for us!”


“Rae was so happy after staying with Kristen overnight! I also appreciated the photos I received from Kristen, it made me feel better knowing she was in great hands!”


“April and her kids were great with Whiskey. He got plays with his favorite tug toy, and a nice walk. It was only for one night but she kept me updated with pictures and messages. I appreciated all of the updates. He came home exhausted and slept soundly the entire day.”


“Our dog was well cared for while leaving her with Tom and his family! Tom was easy to communicate with and frequently sent pictures. I hope it works for them to sit Ollie again!”


“Joscelyn is extremely kind and caring sitter. We got regular updates and pictures. Our pups had a great time and came home happily tired 😁 We would come back again for sure! Recommend 10/10”


“Agnatha was amazing. We did the meet and greet while my dog, Cookie, was in perfect health. Unfortunately that evening my dog would need emergency surgery. My hotel wasn't refundable and I was worried about leaving my dog who now had to wear a cone and take medication. But Agnatha said she would be perfectly fine taking care of Cookie post surgery. When we picked Cookie up she was happy and healthy.”


“Jennifer has sat my 17 lb Eskimo dog mix twice now, and each time she has been easy to work with, communicative, friendly, and professional. I'm really grateful that she's been available when I'm in town visiting family.”


“I really appreciate Erin keeping Jack. I was able to do a meet and greet prior to his stay and felt comfortable leaving him for multiple days. Erin sent me updates without me having to ask. I would definitely trust to leave him with her again.”


“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”


“Left my girl with him for the first time ever. I’ve never used an app to find care for her and he kept me updated on what she was doing and put my mind at ease. I would use Salehin again”


“Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.”


“Our family is so pleased with the care Greg provided for our pups while we were out of town. The amount of communication exceeded our expectations, and the level of care was top notch. Both of our girls got tons of play time and had their own dedicated room! They’ve been back home for about 15 hours now, just sleeping the night and day away. Greg really took great care and tuckered these girls out! We’ve already requested another boarding a few weeks from now ☺️”
