“Melissa is a very caring and thoughtful dog sitter. Billy was well cared for and a very happy boy. Melissa’s personality is very bubbly and she has such positive energy that she made me feel at ease as it was the first time I have left my fur baby for a week while I vacationed. Thank you Melissa, we will see you again!”

“I am so glad, I found Kyla! She was so responsive from the beginning. Posie ( our dog) was well taken care of while our family went for a trip. Kyla is amazing with animals, felt it’s a second home for our puppy!”
“We just finished pet sitting with Julia for almost 5 weeks and it was wonderful stay for my little pup Daizy. Julia took care of her like her own dog and provided me with all the regular updates. Julia and her husband are the most wonderful being and super caring. Daizy was super happy and healthy while we got her back. I really can not thank you enough guys for taking such a wonderful care of my baby while we were away for long time. I would always be looking forward to have you guys take care of Daizy on every future occasion. THANK YOU from Daizy🐾 and her mom & dad.”

“Yogita and Dibakar took such good care of our dog when we went away for the long weekend! They were very responsive and sent us updates multiple times a day.

“Our 2 year old poodle comes home happy, healthy and tired from his visits with Holly. Recent visit was a full weekend and we are so happy we booked with her. Holly made sure he got lots of exercise and had a good time! We'll definitely book again!!”
“Bill and Norma watched Emma and Hannah for several days for us. It was our first time working with them as sitters. I was grateful for their patience and thoughtfulness. Hannah can be challenging, given her conversational tendencies and quirkiness. We dealt mostly with Bill. I noticed he took extra time when Hannah needed more attention. He also realized the differences in both dogs' personalities and worked to kindly manage them as they demonstrated need. I would leave our dogs with them again. They came home quiet, well adjusted and settled right back into our routine.”
