“Really fantastic experience. Gwen and family were friendly and accommodating. Great location and amazing fenced in backyard. They took very good care of my pup. I could tell she had been well taken care of, but one thing I especially loved is that she crashed hard when we got home from her time with Gwen and fam. I know that means she got good exercise and activity. With my boxer pup, tired means she's been having fun! I will definitely use Gwen and family again.”


“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were happy and well taken care of. She kept us up to date each day with lots of pictures. We could tell that our dogs were happy and content. We will definitely be using Sarah again!!!”


“Piglet enjoyed his stay. He was a happy dog when I picked him up. He was socialized with other dogs and I had a lot of questions answered from his visit. I would highly recommend this couple. They provided plenty of pictures and their entire family loved on Piglet. Nice big yard. Someone is always home so your dog is never left alone. Highly recommended by me.”


“Diana and Kevin were great!! This was the first time leaving our puppy Mabel so I was a little nervous but there was no reason to be. Diana took Mabel on walks and sent many updates. She replied to my messages quickly and was very responsive. We already have them booked for a future weekend getaway. Highly recommend!”


“This was Basil's first stay with Valerie and he seemed calm and happy when I picked him up. Worn out from playing too, which is great! Valerie fit me in last minute and is very friendly, we would definitely book with her again!”


“Emily was wonderful with our two miniature schnauzers. They were both very well cared for, including the administration of insulin for our diabetic dog. She was an excellent communicator before and during their stay. We greatly appreciated her updates while we were away and would not hesitate to book with Emily again.”


“Rachel & her family are so sweet & will go above & beyond to care for your furbaby. My Bernese Mt Dog puppy was happy with her stay for 7nightd & got plenty of care, attention, play time & walks. We're very grateful to find the perfect petsitter!.”


“There are not enough good things to say about Emily! It was like having a friend I’ve known for years look after my pet! The open communication and reassurance she provided is unmatched. She was patient with the fact I’ve never boarded my cat, so was a little nervous with how he’d do…but she was so understanding, compassionate and loving towards my little guy! I picked Emily randomly…and am so thankful I did!! Highly recommend and now feel at ease with any future trips…as I’ll be using her again.”


“Tameka took our dogs in last minute for boarding and we could not have asked for a better experience. She made sure they were accomodated, took them for plenty of walks, and sent pictures and updates often. We so appreciate Tameka and her service!”


“Mycah was amazing taking care of my dog. From the start, he was kind, responsible, and attentive to her needs. He kept me updated with photos and messages throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s clear he truly loves animals and enjoys what he does. My dog came back happy and relaxed. I would definitely recommend him and would trust him again without hesitation!”


“Victoria does a fantastic job of taking care of our dog, Bailey. Victoria provides regular updates, and I know Bailey loves the attention he receives. We'll definitely be booking Victoria again.”


“Gabby is an awesome sitter! I can tell my pup had a great time with her. She sent pictures everyday, took him on walks, and genuinely treated my dog like he was her own. I’ll definitely be a repeat client!”


“Josh and Kate were great and really helped alleviate my anxiety in leaving him in someone else’s home. They were welcoming and knowledgeable about the best way to introduce him to the other let they were caring for. They sent updates which thrilled all of us, especially the kids, to see that he was being so well taken care of and loved while we were away. Milo seemed very comfortable and quickly made himself at home in theirs. It was a great experience and their care was very much appreciated. Can’t recommend them enough and rather than stress about who will keep our anxious pup while we are away I will be looking up Josh and Kate immediately. Thank you both for loving our big, sweet Milo!”


“Dayna did a terrific job with our dogs! They seemed very comfortable with her and showed no signs of anxiety when we picked them up. Thank you, Dayna, for taking such great care of them!”


“Amazing pet sitters. Thanks for taking care of Brennan for us and sending us a video and picture. We will definitely be booking again! He had a great time and seemed well taken care of.”


“Lori was great! She watched our two dogs for 10 days while we were on vacation and we felt so much better about leaving them knowing they were in good hands. Definitely recommend!”



“Nice family. I left my pets with Kris for a few weeks and everything went well. Glad I found someone I can trust in Indiana and plan on using if I ever need a sitter again. Fenced in backyard for dogs to play mine seemed to enjoy it a lot.”


“We were so very grateful for Stacy to watch our poodle Marty over Thanksgiving. She was great at communicating and sending pictures of our boy having a good time 🙂 We know he had so much fun, thanks Stacy!”
