“We had a meet and greet with Layne prior to boarding Maxie at her place. They have a big fenced yard which is a plus. Layne took good care of Maxie even when she didn’t have the appetite (maybe she missed us that much). It’s nice to have a caring sitter that knows how to handle your dog when you’re not there for them. Thanks Layne for the TLC!”


“Absolute Amazing experience for my first time using this app. I was able to go on vacation without worrying about our sweet fur baby. Thanks for sharing photos & loving on our fur baby. Lori took great care of her!! Highly recommended! Thanks so much”


“Janet did an amazing job taking care of our dog. Annabelle was well cared for, and Janet sent us frequent pictures and updates on how she was doing. Would definitely let her take care of our girl anytime.”


“We absolutely loved Rebecca and her family. She sent frequent updates and photos and we always felt like our dog was in great hands. We’ve used her twice and will continue to use her in the future.”


“Amy and her lovely family took Dude, my 1 yo male Lab, for a week. They assimilated him into their pack from day one and made him happy. She shared updates and pictures at least once a day. He’s a handful but they took it all in stride and with aplomb. I’ll def use them again for any of my dog sitting needs!!”

“Rose was amazing! She took such good care of our babies! Even our skittish dog became her best friend by the end of the stay, and she doesn't become friends with hardly anyone! We will absolutely be using Rose's services again if, and when, we need to leave our babies with someone. Thank you so much, Rose's! You're a godsend!! ❤️🤗”


“We recently boarded our two dogs, Sushi and Trixie, with Grayson for 10 days, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Grayson was sincere, friendly, and incredibly easy to communicate with. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in good hands. Throughout their stay, Grayson sent us regular updates and adorable pictures, which truly reassured us. Sushi and Trixie looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for every time. When we picked them up, they were calm and content, which says a lot about the care and attention they received. We’re so grateful to have found someone as reliable and kind as Grayson. We’ll definitely be using his services again the next time we’re out of town, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving dog care!”


“Mary and her family were the best!! Communication was amazing, She sent me pictures and kept me informed. I will definitely send my baby Kane back, I have found my go to sitter for him. I will definitely recommend Mary to anyone who’s in need of a sitter for their pup.”


“I am so grateful to have found Chris and Tommie to care for and play with my shih tzu and corgi. My pups have a blast there and come home looking fit and well cared for. What makes this home special is the playtime with both other dogs and with the owners who treat them like family.”



“I had the best experience with Abby. Dutch was always so happy with her and her family. The pictures and updates I go through the time she had him just made me feel at ease. Would definitely book with her again!”


About: I have over 8 years experience with rescue dogs and puppies. Have had multiple rescue dogs at once and I'm confident with looking after both puppies and seniors. I am able to administer medication such as diabetes shots and tablets. I am currently a stay at home painter. I am with my own dog all day so plenty of bathroom breaks and attention is given. I have a large fenced yard for your baby to run around with my own dog and a baby gates throughout the house for safety

“Davis was amazing.. sent me so many pictures and regular updates. Was very attentive from the beginning towards Kuttus’s needs. We will surely go with him again.. it was a lovely experience for me and Kuttus..”


“If you’re looking for a top-notch dog sitter, look no further! Angela truly went above and beyond for our dog on Father’s Day weekend. Her quick response and last minute availability were incredibly helpful. We especially appreciate all the photos and text messages updates, which kept us feeling connected, and our minds at ease the entire time. Angela is easily one of the best, and we highly recommend her for anyone needing reliable and caring pet care. We will definitely be repeat customers!”

“We had to leave town suddenly due to a death in our family and Suzanne agreed to take our Maggie at very short notice. Maggie was extremely well cared for and very comfortable with Suzanne and her family and their own furbabies. We received messages and pictures regularly which definitely eased our minds during such a difficult time. I couldn’t be happier that I have found Suzanne and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

Laura P.
“We’re so glad we found Laura! She took amazing care of our three dogs — including two wild little puppies and our older dog. Managing my bunch isn’t easy, but Laura handled it like a pro and gave each dog the attention they needed. Her little dog Simo is an absolute gem and loved playing with my dogs, especially chase in the garden. She also helped us out with a foster dog we were looking after at the time, and treated them like one of her own. It really made the whole experience less stressful for us and the dogs. We loved the photo updates and knowing our pups were in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and goes the extra mile, Laura is the one!”
