“Naomi and Sam are wonderful! My 90lbs dog spent the Christmas holidays with them. I couldn’t have hoped for a better family for him. They took him in and treated him as part of their family. My dog hang out with their Labrador and their kids. And, from that picture Naomi sent, we can tell that they formed a special bond. My dog even got gifts from Santa ☺️. We thank Naomi and Sam for everything they did for our 🐶.”

I knew Tonny was in good hands and I would absolutely return to her for any further care. I highly recommend Karla.”


“Leticia and Tarik were absolutely wonderful in looking after our dog, Oliver, for three days. They followed his routine perfectly, kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, and were incredibly kind and attentive throughout. Oliver came back happy and relaxed, which says a lot about the care they provided. To top it off, they even gave Oliver a little toy as a parting gift, which was such a thoughtful gesture. It's clear they truly care about the pets they look after. We'll definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for responsible and caring pet sitters. Thank you so much, Leticia and Tarik!”

“My family and I are very happy with Ari’s stay with Priscila and Robson. During our vacation, Priscila was in constant contact with us and sent us updates and photos of Ari while we were away! This reassured my family and I that Ari was doing okay. Both Priscila and Robson were very patient with Ari and always made sure that he was happy, healthy, and relaxed. Ari has back issues and separation anxiety, and Priscila and Robson made sure that he was always comfortable and followed our care instructions thoroughly! We will definitely be going back to Priscila and Robson in the future. They took extra good care of Ari! Thank you! 😊”
