“Richard was great. Very communicative and sent pictures every day. My dog was very happy - albeit exhausted from all the playing :) - when Richard dropped him off to us. Will definitely ask him to sit again in the future.”



“Kathy is the best! She sent lots of photos and videos. Our pup loved her fenced in yard as well. We felt very comfortable with Kathy caring for our dog for the night. Thanks, Kathy! Would definitely recommend.”



“Sitter accidentally forgot to return our basket of dog toys, but remedied the mistake by giving a rebate on one of the nights and mailed the toys back to our home. She was very accommodating.”



“Amy is an excellent dog sitter! She treats your dog like family. Extremely reliable and provided daily updates with photos of my dog. Amy is on our short list of approved sitters, and I will highly recommend her to friends and family”


“Emily and Patrick were wonderful! From the beginning, they were asking thoughtful questions about Ruby's needs, routine, and personality. Their dog, Eli, became a new fur friend to our pup, Ruby and the photos and videos they shared while we were away gave us peace of mind. They were also accommodating as we had to change our drop off and pick up times. We will definitely be booking them again!”


“Michael and Maria were the best! They took such great care of Penny while I was out of town. Their apartment is so clean and a wonderful location for the city. They were so kind with sending daily updates and photos. I know Penny was in great hands!”


“Amy is truly the best! She is attentive and communicates very well. I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her :) My dog can’t wait to come back!!”


“Nelia is so great! She provides updates at least two times per day, and with multiple pictures. She is very easy to communicate and with timely reply. The kids are very friendly as well. Nelia and her family are definitely recommended! Thank you, Nelia!”


“Rose was amazing and super accommodating on such short notice! My pup had a great time and I was at ease with Roses pictures and updates. Will definitely be rebooking”


“A sweet gem of a person! Super attentive to the needs of my pup and stayed in contact with me. Picture updates were provided too. Christine picked up on Beanie’s personality so quickly and handled her with such care. Christine rocks!!”


“Amazing with my little void! Everyday pics and video and my little baby looked so happy to be there! Went above and beyond and made little toys for her!”


“I have no words to describe how grateful I am with Sarah. She made Kobe’s first stay amazing. Since I met her I found a very loving and caring person and I felt really secure to leave my dog Kobe with her and her wonderful dogs. She was in touch the whole time sending me pictures and videos. I won’t hesitate to leave Kobe again with her!! Thank you so much again Sarah!! 😍”


“Sebastian was great watching my dog. He was very responsive and sent lots of photos. My dog had a great time staying with him. I would highly recommend!”


“Highly recommend! We needed to book a last-minute sitter with a 6:30 AM start time the following morning. Zeiydah to the rescue! She was communicative, sent lots of pictures and treated Mac so well. We will be booking again. Thank you so much, Zeiydah!”


“Kevin was great - excellent communication, and I felt my dog was in good hands. He stayed with Kevin for the two days we biked at KT. Kevin took him for hikes each day, which was greatly appreciated. He has a sweet greyhound that didn’t seem at all perturbed by our high energy springer! We go to KT at least once a year and hope to book him again!”


“Our experience and care with Vidhi was wonderful from start to finish. We were leaving for vacation and our original sitter plans fell through less than a week before leaving. Thankfully, Vidhi was available and promptly responded to the request. She was so accommodating to our schedule and a few changes that popped up. Furthermore, she made sure to make Mira feel comfortable and at ease in her home. Frequent walks, play time, and lots of pictures made us feel comfortable while we were away! Will definitely keep Vidhi in mind for future sitter needs.”


“Christy was an amazing sitter! She was flexible with a super early drop off and then late pick up after our flight was delayed. She shared lots of adorable pictures and our puppies seemed very comfortable. Would happily book again!”


“Our 15 year old dachshund, Bailey, had a wonderful long weekend with Theresa and Dozer. He came home happy and stress-free and I think he misses them! Theresa was great, very communicative with updates, and treated Bailey like one of her own. Bailey has more limited mobility since a back surgery a few years ago and Theresa gave me great confidence in how she handled him and made sure he didn't over extend himself. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring our little old man back to her again. Thank you!”


“Denise and her husband did such a wonderful job with my dog, Parker. It was my first time using their services and they made me feel comfortable and worry free while I was away with frequent updates and photos. Highly recommend! Hope to be able to book with them again soon. Thank you :)”


“E'Ronda took great care of our 5 month old puppy! He came back super happy and had a bath, trimmed nails and a lot of confidence. E'Ronda was very flexible with my incorrect/changed drop off and pick up times and was very nice and easy to communicate with. We were very happy with everything!”

Thersea was a wonderful sitter for our 13 year old Zoe. She is so caring and knows how to make an anxious dog feel right at home. If we could give more than 5 stars we would. Will definitely be booking Thersea again!

5 stars as always! Archie had the best stay and got to hang with lots of dog friends. We got so many updates as we were on vacation which made our trip even better knowing he was being taken great care of .thanks Kathleen!! Archie will be back soon you are the best!

Kristen did great with Pax! I was a little nervous how he’d do downtown, but Kristen assured me she wasn’t phased by an adjustment day or two as Pax got used to some new noises. He came back to us tired and happy!

Thank you, Laura! We know our dog isn't the easiest, and you did so well. Thank you for taking care of him and giving him love.

Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗

Vidhi was absolutely amazing! From the moment we booked, her communication was top notch. She was always prompt, clear, and thoughtful. She sent regular updates and adorable photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog had a blast with her, her partner and dog… going on plenty of walks and getting lots of love and attention. The pickup and drop off process was seamless and stress free. You can truly tell she cares deeply about the dogs she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Vidhi and will definitely be booking with her again!

Amber was great with my dog while I was away! She took him for walks every day, she hung out with him, and everything! She did such an excellent job that I don’t think he even cared that I was gone! She provided the best care, definitely recommend booking her!

Tiffany took excellent care of our dog, Callie. She was extremely kind and reliable, responsive, and sent us daily updates and photos so we knew Callie was having a great time. Would definitely rebook her any time!

Amy was very kind, and took wonderful care of our pup. She sent photos of their walks around the city and kept a good eye on a paw that seemed to be bothering our pup. We would gladly hire Amy again!!

Cam had a great time with Kasey and Alyssa! They took great care of him and were very communicative while caring for him.

Brittany is such an incredible haven for our dog while we’re out of town! She is incredibly in tune with animals’ needs, asking questions about potential quirks and triggers which make us feel confident he is in expert hands. We always know our buddy is safe and loved with her.

Jenna was great with Norton. He loved the air conditioning and the couch, and enjoyed all the attention. It was great finding a great sitter so close to home.

Great job, plan on using again in the future. Not many understand mastiff behavior. Even had her out socializing continuing her adjustment after we rescued her. Have been working with mastiffs since the 90s and I plan on using again highest praise I got.

Tia and her family always make sure my pup is cared for and has as many belly rubs as he demands (which is a lot)

Nicholas was a perfect dog sitter for my dog. He communicated well, sent pictures, and my dog came back home happy to have made a new friend! I’d recommend Nicholas and will be booking with him again!

Kaiya took great care of Ginger. She sent regular updates and Ginger met new friends during her stay.

Aeryana was very communicative throughout the weekend she had my 2 dogs. I appreciated the updates and photos! She was also understanding when they got into some food they shouldn’t have, and also when they had some stress behaviors. Would definitely recommend her to take care of your pups!

Madeline was so wonderful and took care of Sunny as her own. She sent frequent updates and photos. We couldn't be happier !

Lucy was incredible while our dog stayed for a week boarding with her - she goes above and beyond with walks, hikes, and even does some training. Knowing our dog is in good hands makes our travels so much more relaxed and enjoyable! Thanks Lucy!

We have been repeated customers of Andrea’s and have always been very happy with our experiences, from communication to dog-sitting. Our dog Dexter is always bursting with excitement to arrive to Andrea’s, and is tired from playing when he returns home. We’ll certainly be booking with Andrea again!
