3. Janet & Saar Z.
“Our dog Riley is pretty shy/timid initially so we weren’t sure how she’d do, but from all of the pictures and updates from Janet and Saar throughout the weekend it was clear that she had a great time, settled in quickly, and loved running around the big backyard and playing inside and out with all of her new friends. Janet and Saar are very kind and responsive and clearly took great care of Riley while she was with them”
4. Lauren M.
“Lauren went above and beyond with my diabetic dog! I taught her how to manage the insulin injection, and everything that she needed to know to make Layla comfortable, and she followed every step. Having a diabetic dog can be very stressful when you n don't know what your doing, buy I was lucky enough to find her and that she was willing to help. Oh, and it was a last minute call too! Definitely will be contacting her again?”

“This was my first time leaving my fur baby with anyone, and I was a little nervous about it but Maria came to the rescue! Her prompt response made coordinating my dog's drop-off and pick-up a cinch.

13. Lucinda N.
“Lucinda has been our pet and house sitter for many years, including times when we were out of the country and not easily reached. Our pets include 2 golden retrievers and 2 horses. They are always happy to see her. Our horse trainer compliments Lucinda on how clean the stalls are. We are always pleased to come home to a house is well-kept. For many years, Lucinda worked for one of the country's top show dog handlers, and she is a good dog handler in her own right. This means she is familiar with traveling with dogs in new environments and knows a lot about keeping pets healthy, happy and in top condition. She's the best pet sitter we have ever had!”

“Tyler did amazing with my dog gunna, she cared for him like her own and sent updates and pictures daily! We will be using her again when we need services!!”
18. Amanda N.
“Amanda did a great job with Finnegan. He developed a medical issue right before she was due to take care of him and she handled it with no complaints, despite it not being something she knew about when she agreed to take care of him (because it wasn’t an issue then). Finnegan is a very clingy dog so I was worried about how he’d go being left with a sitter but Amanda was really good with him and we came home to a happy, well cared for, dog. We’re definitely happy to recommend Amanda to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet(s).”
19. Sanja S.
“Bella loves visiting Sanja. They treat her like she’s one of their own. They made boarding Bella a stress free experience for me and the dog.”
20. Natalie S.
