“Shannon took great care of our pup Perl! She sent photos and updates each day so we could see her happily napping at her house. I would definitely have Perl stay again and would tecommend Shannon to anyone considering her :)”

“Lisa accepted our booking very last minute and was so kind and accommodating with our drop off and pick up time. She replied quickly when we checked in to see how Belle was doing. Belle had a great time and we hope to book with Lisa again in the neat future for our upcoming travels! We were extremely pleased with the care she received.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Carol. My 12-year-old husky means the world to me, and Carol cared for her exactly the way I would — spoiled and loved. She sent daily photos and updates, which really helped me relax while I was away. My girl was happy, comfortable, and clearly adored. I would trust Carol again in a heartbeat.”

“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”

“Beverly took wonderful care of my Frenchie. She was quick to make Cookie feel right at home. Sent a lot of pictures and videos. There is always some anxiety when having someone care for your pet, but I knew within an hour my Cookie was in the right place. I would recommend Beverly to anyone who needs pet care and sitting services. So much better than a kennel. Your dog will be loved and will gets lots and lots of attention and love all day and all night.”

“Bobbie is a fantastic dog sitter and we can not recommend her enough! She is kind and considerate and treats our puppy Eva as her own. Eva means the world to us and to have someone to watch her while we are away that we know she will be cared for is invaluable. We are so appreciative to Bobbie and her family for welcoming Eva into their home!”

“Wow! Lovely family, took excellent care of our dog for the week while we were out of town. Communicated promptly. We had an issue with a delayed flight and they went above and beyond to accommodate. Could not have asked for a better experience. So thankful for this family, we know Max enjoyed his time and was well cared for. Would definitely use Yvonne to care for our pet again in the future.”

“Guinness loves coming here. He enjoys the other dogs in the house and the play time in the backyard. He always comes home exhausted from all the fun he’s had with Tonya.”

“If I could give this a 100 star review I would! Lynn was wonderful with Dixie. We got the best updates daily and quickly if I asked for more. She is a keeper! We will definitely be calling her again.”
“Oh, my goodness! Pattie is the best dog sitter ever! My Mini Labradoodle usually has high separation anxiety, and is very skittish around strangers, but he knew right away that he had friends in Pattie and her little Yorkie! He warmed right up, and felt right at home. Pattie sent many pictures and updates, and even sent daily letters from Buddy to Mom & Dad! I like that Pattie stays outside with the dogs in her fenced yard when they need to go outside. She also carefully followed each of my instructions that were written out for her, and messaged me when she had questions. Buddy felt comfortable on her lap as well as the dog bed that were available. I don’t think he missed us much at all. We will be sure to ask for Pattie the next time we have to be out of town!”

“Cody, his family, and pup Freya took great care of Moxie. She was skittish being her first time away overnight, but they were patient with her and gave daily updates and pics. She loved playing with Freya& fetching balls. Their home and yard is safe and secure. We will definitely book Cody again when we are visiting out-of-state family near him.”

“We had a great experience with Andrew. We rescued our dog two months ago and it was our first time boarding him so we were understandably nervous. The frequent photos and videos we received assured us that our boy was having a good time socializing with Andrew’s dog Dante.”

“Robert took such good care of my girl! I was so nervous at first about her being away but he made sure it was updated and she was comfortable and well taken care of. My dog even got a chance to make some new friends which is amazing. Thank you again so much! I look forward to the next time babygirl has to go somewhere”

“David was great with our two shihtzu boys. He sent quite a few updated over the 5 nights my boys spent at his place. He has a great home and yard for the fur babies. He was also quick to respond for a meet and greet.”

“Anthony did an outstanding job watching my dog diego! We came in for a last minute trip with family, he updated me with photos very frequently so I felt comfortable knowing he was safe and having a good time. Highly recommend, Diego is now sound asleep on our way back home.”

“5 stars for Lea and her family! Ellie had such a great stay there while we were away on a camping trip! Very communicative, easy to arrange pickup/dropoff and super friendly family overall. We will be using Lea in the future for sure. Thank you Lea!!”
