We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.

Anna went above and beyond in her care for our Lucy. She took so many pictures and seemed to genuinely enjoy taking care of our fur pup. Hoping we can visit Anna and her family again in the future!

Grizzly had a great time with Emma and Marco!! Their home and fenced yard were well set up for doggies. From meet and greet to picking him up after our trip we felt very much at ease that Grizzly will receive great care. We received daily updates and appreciated the great communication. Highly recommend and would love to use them again.

From the first contact, I loved James' response. He first asked about meeting Neo to see if he would be a good match for his family, which gave me peace. He kept in contact by sending us pics and updates during our time away. No regrets! 🙏🏻

Klaudia was awesome! Our elderly dog had a health crisis while she was caring for him, and she took him to the vet, was very good with communication, and really cared about our guy for 2 days while we made our way home early from vacation. Highest recommendation!!

Yajaira was amazing! I was so nervous about using the app let alone leaving my dog with someone other than family. This was my first time and everything went perfect. I did a meet and greet prior to the stay where I met with Yajaira and her small dog to see how the vibe was with everyone. She was sweet and her and my dog got along well. She sent daily pictures and updates which I was thankful for. She cared for my dog like family. I’m so happy I found someone close to home that I can trust. Thank you so much again.

I had a great experience with Mecheal. I left my 10-month-old Aussie with her for a week, and I was nervous about leaving him with someone new. She took excellent care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates every day, which really helped ease my worries. It was clear that my pup was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby! Will definitely use her again

Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!

Michelle is fantastic! She not only made my nervous pup feel at ease, her calm confident demeanor helped to calm my nerves as well. This was our first time using a sitter that we didn’t already know and it was super smooth thanks to Michelle. She provided lots of pics and updates and my somewhat anxious chihuahua warmed up to her quickly. I will definitely use her again. Thanks Michelle!

Araceli & Uciel are wonderful! Such good and conscientious carers, understand dogs well and especially senior dogs. Our little old guy came home with a pep in his steps and we are so eternally grateful for their care. Her little furbabies are so intuitive and knew how to gently treat our old guy too.

Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!

Kevin was amazing. My dog, Scruffy is very shy, but he got comfortable with Kevin and his dog very quickly. It was evident that Scruffy had a pleasant stay with Kevin, and he’ll be back soon 👍 Bonus: Scruffy also smelled nice (like himself) when he got home. When Scruffy stays with other sitters, he usually comes home smelling like other dogs for a few days. It was definitely a bonus (for me) that it didn’t take a few days for Scruffy to smell like himself again, haha.

Had a great experience with Kristin! Our two pups stayed for a week - our boy suffers from seizures which Kristin had experience with.

I had an amazing experience with this dog sitter. They were truly wonderful—reliable, caring, and incredibly attentive. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog Jacob was in such good hands. This was the first time Jacob actually wanted to go back and even seemed to miss his caregivers, which says everything about the love and attention he received. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!

Brittany was great. She was really good about checking in and sending me updates, even when I was in an area with no cell service/wifi so was not able to respond to her messages. My dog is old and has slowed down a lot, and I could tell when I picked him up that she had been patient and taken good care of him.
