1. Mychaela R.
“We could not have been any happier with our decision to book Mychaela! She was incredibly responsive and took the best care of our Frenchie (Gooch) while we were away on a cruise for a 10 days. She sent a variety of pics throughout our trip and even let him snuggle in the bed - he was a very happy boy and well taken care of. I couldn’t recommend her anymore and she will most definitely be our new go-to the next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you so much, Mychaela!”
2. Misty M.
“Misty did an amazing job making sure Luna was well taken care of and comfortable during her stay. Misty’s updates provided peace of mind that was well needed due to travel.”
3. Fred A.
“By all accounts Maple had a great time with Fred! I enjoyed the pictures and could tell she was in a dog lovers home! Peace of mind, while out of town, is priceless.”
4. Maggie G.
“Maggie is the best and I can tell my little Dachshund, Bean, had a wonderful time with her! I was at peace knowing I left my pup in loving good hands 😊 I will most definitely be asking her to take care of Bean again in the future!”
5. Della S.
“Della is hands-down the best!! She took such amazing care of Puck during a 9 day stay. Daily hikes and cuddles!! We have such peace of mind entrusting our pup to Della.”
6. Claudia M.
“Claudia was great with my cat who stayed in her home for 5 days. He needs regular medicine of two types and Claudia was great about specific instructions while also giving him the attention he needs. I also appreciated the regular photos she sent me. My mind was at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. I would definitely have Claudia help me out again and definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
7. Stephanie C.
“We felt so at ease leaving our dog to stay with Stephanie and her sweet pup, Frankie. Stephanie sent photo updates every day, administered our dog’s medications, was communicative, friendly and flexible. We will definitely book with her again, and highly recommend her to others!”
8. Taryn P.
“Taryn was great watching Scout for an evening. She sent updates which I appreciated, took him on walks, and cared about taking good care of him. Highly recommended!”
9. Sarah B.
“We had a great experience with Sarah and her family. Our pup was happy, got to make new friends and came home like a kid after summer camp. Sarah sent pictures and checked in daily, enabling us to really relax on vacation. We will definitely work with her again!”
10. Piper S.
“I have recently adopted a fur baby of my own after growing up with family dogs. And if there was any person I would not only trust but specifically request to care for my fur baby, it would be Piper. She has such a natural love for people and her love of animals goes beyond words. She is reliable, loving, trustworthy and incredibly caring; I couldn’t ask for a more perfect caretaker 🐾”
11. Margaret T.
“Margaret is fantastic. She took great care of our 3-year-old corgi. We got to meet her before his stay, and we were updated with texts throughout his stay. We will definitely book with her again.”
12. Marzhan S.
“Responsive, kept us updated and Sally had a great time!”
13. Dakota & Kate D.
About: I work from home and our dog, Arlo, typically hangs out nearby if he's not patrolling the backyard. I've had dogs for most of my life. I've trained four of our own puppies and we've cared for two senior dogs in recent years. My wife is a teacher. We love dogs and can accommodate regular walks. We typically walk our dog, Arlo, about 1.5 miles on the nearby Bear Creek walking/biking path in the evenings, sometimes adding in a trip to one of the nearby dog parks. We frequently do weekend hikes on nearby dog-friendly trails. Our house is perfect for dogs that can handle stairs. We have a nice, six-foot privacy fenced in yard and a built-in dog door to allow anytime access to a fenced backyard. Our own dog, Arlo, is very friendly and loves dog company.
14. Maggie L.
“Maggie was great with my dog, Tully. He's under a year and had some separation anxiety. She was patient and caring with him and was friendly and kept me informed.”
15. Audrey M.
“We were very pleased with a dog sitting service and that the stay was excellent. Audrey was flexible and accommodating. She sent me pictures of my dog enjoying herself each day. I will definitely have my dog stay with her again.”
16. Ellyn A.
“Thank you for giving him a happy safe and fun home with Murphy! I really appreciated all the pictures and knowing he was having a great time! 🙏🏼 💗”
17. Jennifer & Brian L.
