“Wonderful family. loving, warm and relaxed environment. Great communitcation. My dog, Lio, seemed so happy and relaxed from the minute we got there.”

“Rene and Steph took such great care of my dog. They have two dogs who are friendly and were good companions for my pup. I will continue to rebook and highly recommend Rene and Step!”

“These are 2 really nice people. The area where the dogs are allowed to go was very clean. They have easy access to the outdoors. My 2 somewhat anxious dogs came out happy and unstressed. Will definitely continue to use their services.”
“Pat was the first dog sitter I ever entrusted with my dog, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He is incredibly kind, attentive, and truly cares for my pup. He keeps me updated with pictures every few hours and always responds quickly to any messages. I have complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in great hands every Tuesday with Pat. I wouldn’t trust anyone else the way I trust him!”

“Happy repeat customer. Our dog hates riding in the car but gets so excited when we pull up to meet Briane. Briane and our family give our dog lots of love during his visits and she is our “go-to” sitter for our little guy.”

“Matty has been very communicative, flexible, friendly, and most importantly great with Teddy Bear :) Best of all, he came highly recommended by people in whom I have complete confidence with regard to Teddy Bear's care, so I was able to have total peace of mind when I dropped Ted with him for the first time. Thank you, Matty!”


“Lee was incredible with Edith. She handled her slight anxiety like a pro and was flexible when we needed to shift our timing a little. We'll definitely be booking with Lee again.”

“Karen and Maria took amazing care of my dog! He felt right at home with them. He didn’t even want to leave! He loved snoozing, cuddling, and playing with their dogs as well.”
“Juliet is the best doggie sitter! My pup loves her place so much. She is kind and attentive and professional and sends great pics and updates. Highly recommend.”


“I was really impressed with Jason N. and can't recommend him highly enough! My pup is a shy rescue with separation anxiety, but she immediately felt right at home at Jason N.'s and was having so much fun with the wonderful resident dog that she barely noticed when I left. I received regular updates on her day that completely assuaged any concerns I'd normally have, and when I picked her up at the end of the day I found her happy, relaxed, and all played-out. Having someone I really trust to watch Stella is an immense piece of mind, and I'll definitely be calling Jason N. next time I need a sitter.”

“Shantell loves what she does and it shows!!! From the moment my dog and I walked in, she made us feel welcome. So thoughtful and accommodating, my super shy pup warmed so quickly!! We will be repeat customers for sure!!! ”
“Michael was fantastic with our dog, Charlie! Very responsive and provided updates throughout the day. Look forward to having Michael watch Charlie again soon!”

“My dog seemed happy and healthy on pickup after two nights. I didn’t meet Dominique, just met her brother on both dropoff and pickup. He was good with my dog and theirs, as well as a third old pup who was at the house at pickup. They had the porch secured with a barrier that would not hold a big or determined dog but it seemed they were out there supervising all the time so no worries about escapes. They communicated well, I got photos and a few texts around logistics. Thanks guys! We’ll definitely consider using them again.”

“Nick was the sweetest with our nervous pup, and she warmed to him immediately. He is a great communicator, very thoughtful and considerate, and a joy to work with. We will definitely be using his services regularly.”
“Stephanie was very in tune with the dogs. She came right down to his level and made my dog comfortable. She can be a little more tidy but overall good experience”

“Your dog will be in great hands. I can’t recommend Johanna enough. I don’t usually leave my dog with people he doesn’t know so I was quite nervous, but she made us both feel very at ease! Johanna even played classical music for him. Amazing dog sitter!”

“Clark and Frances took great care of Tilly during her recent daycare session at their home. After meeting them and their cute dog Luca a few days earlier, Tilly was so eager to return that she literally pulled me to their front door. She and Luca played nonstop for hours and Frances also gave them a good long walk. Tilly still has some puppy-like behavior, and Frances and Clark were very patient with her. I felt very confident leaving her with them. She had a wonderful time, and came home happy and exhausted. I know she would like to return soon.”
