Jeneffer was a great sitter for my little Pomeranian. She answered all of my questions, took great care of my dog and sent me some cute photos. I would absolutely have Jeneffer watch my dog again. Thank you!!!

With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!

Chad and Regina are exceptional dog sitters who truly go the extra mile in caring for furry friends. From their attentive care to their genuine affection, they treat my dog as if he were their own. My dog consistently returns home well-behaved and content, a testament to the excellent care provided by Chad and Regina. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to any dog owner seeking top-notch care for their beloved companions.

Kamille gave our pup a loving home for the week and we are so grateful. The videos she sent us ware the whole so sweet and made us feel so relaxed that he was taken care of. She is also incredibly knowledgeable on collapsing dog cages! Will run to request dog sitting from her and her family in the future!

Alejandro took such great care of our old girl. We knew it was a perfect match the moment we walked in for the meet and greet. Our dog was so excited to meet Alejandro and his partner and got to exploring and cuddling immediately. She had no qualms about being dropped off for her staycation (it seemed like she couldn’t wait for us to leave). When we picked her up, it was clear that she missed her time with Alejandro.

Aaron and Paweena are life savers! We have recently relocated to DC and we are glad to find a sitter to take exceptional care of our 14 year old red heeler when he have to travel. They are communicative and provide consistent updates on his health and feeding patterns. Aaron and Paweena will continue to be our first choice for care.

Andy was so wonderful to our pup! Since it was our first time he agreed to a meet-and-greet with his dog a couple weeks before the long weekend. They got along really well. He also suggested we could see where our dog was going to be staying, which I really appreciated. When our dog returned to stay with Andy for the long weekend, he was so excited to go inside with Andy - he didn’t even look back! Andy sent us pictures every evening and answered all of our questions promptly. He makes sure each dog eats separately and takes care to follow the food instructions. Our dog was tired and happy after we picked him up!

Rebecca was an incredible host! When our flight home got severely delayed, she was communicative and saved the day by keeping our pup one extra night. Even better, she took him on an early morning walk before we picked him up, delivering an extra snuggly, sleepy dog. She also sent updates, including pictures, health updates, and notes any changes in behavior. You can definitely tell she’s experienced!

Tania took excellent care of Higgins and made the entire experience worry-free. Communication was always quick and responsive, and we appreciated how easy she was to reach. She was dependable, attentive, and clearly treated him like one of her own. We appreciated the updates and photos she sent, and it was reassuring to know he was receiving such great care. Higgins was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. We would gladly trust Tania with him again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.
