“We rebooked with Andi since our dog, Mabel, seemed to love her time with Andi & her family! They took great care of her, sent lots of updates, & even cared for Mabel when she unexpectedly went into heat early. Thanks again Andi for taking care of our berner bear!”
“Jackie was absolutely wonderful with our doggie. We could not have felt more comfortable and safe in the knowledge that our pet would be happy. The photo updates and videos that she sent while we were away confirmed we made the right choice!!”
“If you’re in Ocala, Florida and need to find a beautiful home with exceptionally caring people to board your small dog, these are the best people. When Laquitta and James host your pet in their gorgeous home, you know your furry child will be cared for just the way you do yourself. Chucky, my 3-year-old Pekingese, was happy and playing with Laquitta and James’s own young Shih Tsu the whole week. He was fed with food I provided, he was loved and cherished. Another gentle Shih Tsu, Izzy, is a gorgeous senior. Chucky has a “home away from home” with Laquitta, James, Otto and Izzy.”
“Super sweet, lots of communication. I felt super comfortable leaving my baby. I got picture mail throughout, and could tell she and her family genuinely love and care about animals. Will definitely be using again!”

“Lorraine is awesome, my first time leaving my Emme. I will definitely use Lorraine again. The videos and pictures she sent me made feel so good. It showed that Emme was having fun.”
“Annette, is a great sitter. Reliable and trustworthy. I have two senior dogs, who are pretty much deaf and blind. Ann, takes it all in stride and gives them excellent care. Thank God, that I found her. It feels good to be able to board them and know that they are safe and being taken care of. Pet sitting is Annette's business, it is not a side hustle. Highly recommend her. She also checks in daily with pictures and updates of my dogs.”
“Where do I start? Stefhany and Jean P are the BEST!! I’ve never utilized this app before and this was my first time using it and we are so HAPPY that we were connected with Stefhany and Jean P!!! They cared for my 2 fur babies for 12 days and let me tell you, they communicated with me frequently sharing pictures of our fur babies and updates. I am beyond grateful of how well they took care of them. Those of you who are not sure about this service and pet saviors… DO NOT choose anyone until you’ve tried this service! Specifically, Stefhany and Jean P, they are going to be my “go to” fur babies sitters moving forward. My wife and I HIGHLY recommend Stefhany and Jean P to you ALL! I promise you that they will LOVE your fur babies just as much as you love them yourself! You will NOT be disappointed at all. If they ever was such a 10 star rating, Stefhany and Jean P would have gotten it from us. Thank you Stefhany and Jean P! You have no idea how relieved we are to have found you both as our fur babies caring and loving sitter. We will be in touch again for sure. THANKS A MILLION!!! ❤️🙏🏽❤️”

“What a terrific person Rebecca is! She's very easy to talk with, understands my pups needs and quirks, and...she sent me pictures of my boy every day! This was my first time using Rebecca. I went on a cruise, so you could imagine that I'd be a bit nervous. But Rebecca put me at ease on day one and every day going forward! I didn't worry at all!! He got lots of attention and love! Great job Rebecca! And your wonderful family, too!”
