8. Celina B.
“Celina was wonderful. She made Maui's time with her and her pup Smokey, so great. Big yard, plenty of room to run and snuggle time when inside. She also made it easier to leave Maui with her wonderful personality and openess to let Maui do things on her timetable. She was very good at sharing photos and videos of Maui's time with her. I will use her services whenever I have to step out of town and not have to worry about my little pupper.”
9. Megan D.

11. Kailyn L.
“Kailyn went out her way to buy Mylo some pee pads and she also made sure he ate and drank lots of water throughout the day. Kailyn and her family took such good care of Mylo, always kept an eye out for him. She has such a beautiful house, big backyard with lots of space for the pups to run around, including a couple doggie pools for the summer time. Mylo left Kailyn's house very happy, excited, and in good spirits, I can tell Mylo enjoyed his stay! She answered all my text messages and any questions I had right away. Seems like she has lots of experience with pups, she also works at a doggie daycare which is awesome. Mylo will most definitely stay again in the near future.”

“Our golden retriever was very happy staying with Mary while we went on vacation! He met a lot of playmates and had a great time with her dog Sadie :)”
13. Lynne A.
“****A+++++ !!!! Lynne was absolutely PHENOMENAL!!!!!**** My second time having her doggiesit and she’s absolutely the best. So understanding!! My flight was delayed, but she was so super understanding—moreso cared that I had been delayed & traveling 12+ hours rather than keeping her & the puppies up late. She kept me updated throughout my entire vacation with wonderful photos of my fur babies which made me rest assured that they were so happy and safe so I didn’t worry at all. My doggies are my children. Lynne is so wonderful with animals and made my little ones feel right at home. Would ABSOLUTELY trust her again and again any day of the week with my pups!!!!”

“Katie and Mike are fantastic, loving and very communicative dog sitters! They sent photos everyday of our pup playing with their 2 dogs in their big yard, and we’re especially appreciative that they gave our dog 3 different medications everyday and were mindful of her broken claw when playing. We will definitely book with them again soon!”

JoAnn was so attentive to her needs, and went out of her way to ensure my girl felt safe, secure and happy, and was eating. She gave me peace of mind throughout each day checking in with updates and photos and videos. BooBoo loved the fenced in back yard to run freely with her new pal Penelope, who is a bundle of respectful joy. Thank you JoAnn!”
