“Our dog is older and gets very stressed out staying in a kennel. We left her with Ginger and she did great. She loves people and was able to be around a family and I know she was well taken care of. She has medicines that she needed to take and Ginger was able to take care of all of it. Thank you Ginger!”


“Inzhu was an outstanding dog sitter! She was incredibly nice and communicated excellently throughout my trip. She provided plenty of pictures, keeping me updated and at ease.

I highly recommend Inzhu for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter. She exceeded all expectations!”


“Amy and James always provide excellent car for Belle. She’s happy to see them and loves all the attention they provide her. We will definitely request them again next time we need to board her.”


“Starr was fantastic! My dog is diabetic which requires an insulin injection twice a day. He recently had eye surgery which requires pain meds and eye drops several times a day. She was amazing! She sent photos and messages several times a day showing how he was doing. That reassured me and I was not worried about him so I enjoyed my vacation even more. I have already recommended Starr to two of my friends. I would definitely use her services again!”


“This was the first time for us to board our dog. Needless to say, we were somewhat anxious. Danielle has such a gentle approach; we had no hesitation in leaving our dog for a 4 night stay. Our 2-1/2 year old Cavalier King Charles settled right in with the family. It was easy to communicate with Danielle and she sent several photos to let us know that all was well.”


“Kelli’s family is like a vacation for our pug Lizzi! Kelli keeps us updated on how things are going with a daily photo. This is at least her 8th stay in the last couple years and we are 100% confident that she is safe and getting good attention in a just like home environment!”


“Melissa was wonderful with Maggie. Her and her family were very kind and accommodating. My phone was stolen on vacation and once I was finally able to get in touch, she was very understanding and helpful which was a big relief given the stressful circumstances. She has a ton of experience and lives in a beautiful area with a big yard. Highly recommend!”


“Christina did an absolutely amazing job! She took such great care of our pup while we were gone for a few days. She sent pictures and gave updates every day. If you need someone trustworthy and caring to take care of your furry family member, then look no further, Christina is it! Highly recommend and we will use her services in the future!”


“Matthew was great! We were in a bind and needed to find a sitter for Blizzy on very short notice. Matthew was super easy going and made us feel comfortable right away. He provided regular updates including fun pictures and I could tell he was treating our dog like family. We would recommend him to anyone looking for great care for their pet and will absolutely use him again in the future.”


“I continue to use them for all my needs when traveling. Winston is kept occupied by the kids. Every time he comes home he’s tuckered out from all the activities. The kids keep him busy, and always snuggle for a nap time. Great service!”


“Best experience ever! I would recommend Jessica over and over to any and all! As a military family it is hard to find someone to trust with your furry family members but our pup had the best life with cuddles and treats the whole time. He was cared for like he was one of her own.”


“Thank Rachel very much for caring for our cats. She has a very informative description that I liked, she has a beautiful place for the cats and sent very informative photos and other info about the cats while they are staying with her. I definitely recommend her to anyone who is interested.”



“Cassie & Victor were amazing in looking after Totoro, our Pug, for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. She sent daily updates with pictures & videos & even asked about his daily routine to minimize the stress of adjusting to a new environment during the first time boarding. They were accommodating when Totoro had a few accidents the first few days of adjusting and were comfortable w/giving eye drops as Totoro is vision impaired. We’ll most definitely be utilizing their pet boarding services again!”


“This was my first time needing a sitter and I was pretty nervous about it. I've never had to leave my sweet boy anywhere other than the vet for a day. Carol was very accommodating. She allowed me to see where he would be, answered any questions I had and sent pictures to me to assure me he was ok. I was grateful for that. That helped ease my mind. I would definitely use her again if it should become necessary again. She's awesome!!”
