“I live an hour away but will ALWAYS drive the distance over any local boarding/boarders because Aileen is so worth it! Her two personal dogs are crate trained and so well behaved; they are great role models for my puppy to learn from. Not a lot of sitters in my area accept young puppies or unfixed dogs either. Which I understand, but it just goes to show that Aileen's biggest motivator as a sitter is her passion for pets and not because it's a quick buck or passive income. 'Boarding' cannot even compare to Aileen's dog sitting. When your pup stays with her they become a part of her family and she treats them like her own.”


“I couldn't have asked for a better experience as Jillian, and her family made my pups feel like part of the family right away. Thank you again for taking such great care of them, and allowing me to travel without worry!”


“Angie eas amazing with our dog. She showed him lots of love and care. She was flexible with us when our travel plans changed. We will definitely want to use her again.”


“Patrisha was so easy to work with during the entire process. She was quick to reply to messages, available at my convenience, and Heidi was happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend you give her a try.”


“Katie and her family were so great with Lumi! Sending updates and keeping him happy. We were so comfortable and secure knowing Lumi was safe with lots of love and will definitely be rebooking when we need to”


“Emmanuel was fantastic! You can tell he's a true dog person. My dog loved staying at his house. He kept me updated with photos and videos, and his huge backyard was perfect for playtime. I would definitely book with him again —highly recommend!”


“Ms. Pat’s puppy playhouse is the best kept secret in Jasper! Her location is close to Canton, and completely worth the beautiful drive. Our little doxie SuperMan had a blast. Pat kept us informed of his daily activities, sent cute pics and great videos of him. We were highly impressed and grateful for the love Ms. Pat and Ms. Arlene gave our little guy. He was so happy during his stay, and worn out from all the playing!! ♥️ HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”


“Jennifer is great! She communicated promptly and kept us updated with pictures and messages. Will definitely book with her again! She communicated promptly and kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout our dog's stay.”


“Kera was amazing with Javy! From the start, she made sure he was comfortable and well-cared for. We loved receiving daily updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Javy clearly enjoyed his time with her and was happy and relaxed when we returned. Kera’s reliability, communication, and genuine love for dogs truly stood out. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


“Very kind. Great commutator. I will definitely use her again. My dog really seemed to like her stay there. Love that this Rover individual takes my dog on walks and interacts with her!”


“Debbie and Rob are absolutely THE BEST people and THE BEST with our dogs!!! We've been with Debbie for almost 2 years. She took great care of our miniature toy poodle, Cooper, many times before. We have now also added Bingo to our family and just returned from 10 days away visiting family. Debbie and Rob were SO wonderful to both Cooper and Bingo, and to us too!!! She sent us pictures and videos while we were gone, and we could tell the dogs were having so much fun and getting so much love!!! Thanks to Debbie and Rob for taking care of our little wolfpack family!!!”



“Our little Sadie loves Melissa so much that she gets excited even before we’ve pulled on to her street! She is not only a natural with dogs, but her resident dogs are fun playmates too. Melissa is warm and easy going, quick to respond to questions/requests, and her home is very dog friendly. She walks the dogs outside and her backyard has lots of space for them to explore – which Sadie absolutely loves. She is also great at keeping us connected with texts & photos while we’re away. We’re so happy to have found someone we can trust to take great care of our pup!”


“Sara is the perfect dog sitter with great communication and kept us updated everyday! Kai seemed to have alot of fun spending time with other dogs and Sara's family because she is so tired the next day ❤️”


“Kim and her husband Donovan took great care of my dog Milo while we were away! They treated him like their own and made sure that he went for walks, played with his ball, and had lots of snuggles. He’s an anxious dog but he felt right at home with them. We would recommend Kim to watch your dog!”



“Michele kept my two dogs while we were.on Spring Break out of the country. One of our babies requires heart medication and he is always well cared for. I never worry about them when we leave them with Michele.”


“This was our first time leaving our pup with Naimisha. Even though Naimisha is very new as a dog sitter, she took care of our pup really well. She would constantly update us on how our pup was doing and about her food walk and sleep patterns. We loved all the photos and videos we received during the stay. We look forward to leaving Akira with her next time.”


“I was incredibly apprehensive about leaving my fur baby for two whole weeks while we traveled out of state to visit family. The thought of him feeling abandoned or mopey absolutely broke my heart. But the moment I met Diane, I just knew she was the perfect fit—and wow, was my gut right! She exceeded every expectation I had, and then some. From the very start, she treated my pup like her own—with warmth, attention, and genuine love. She sent multiple daily updates, including videos and messages during their walks, which completely put my mind at ease. I never once worried about whether he was okay. That peace of mind is priceless. Thanks to her, I was actually able to enjoy my time away and focus on visiting family, knowing without a doubt that my baby was safe, happy, and loved. She provided the kind of care I would give him myself—and honestly, I think he had a better vacation than we did! If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond and truly treat your pet like family, look no further. I’m almost afraid to leave such a glowing review, worried she’ll be so booked up I won’t be able to get her again! But she absolutely deserves it—and so much more. She’s an absolute gem!”


“Katherine and her sweet family were wonderful with our two big goldens, Cooper and Alex. The pups were comfortable from the meet and greet and loved their two dogs, who were both very low key. She followed special requests and was clearly well organized and responsible. We received many cute photos of the pups while we were away and they were often being loved on by the kids. We just moved into to area and were very anxious about boarding since we had used only a specialty golden retriever camp where we lived before for all our dogs. Also one of our dogs is a very tall big boy at 103 lb, which was not an issue. We highly recommend Katherine and will use her again in the future!”
