Nancy took great care of our pup for the weekend. She sent lots of updates and pictures. We felt he was in great hands as soon as we left him there which made our weekend away more enjoyable. We would highly recommend her!

Yajaira and her dog Luna are AMAZING! My dog is anxious and often scared. She met me and my dog prior to confirming the booking which worked out well. Her dog Luna is amazing with other dogs and incredibly cute. She really helped my dog feel at ease and trust the situation. Yajaira sent me multiple pictures daily, took her to the beach, administered medications and even gave her a bath. Thank you for taking such good care of her! Yajaira and Luna are definitely my go to from now on for dog boarding :) I HIGHLY recommend her services!

My family and I were very pleased with the care our Lab received from Lisa S for her 3-night stay. We felt comfortable that she was being looked after well and was taken on lots of walks. Photos and videos confirmed that our dog was happy. 'Highly recommend Lisa for her attention to detail. We'll definitely request her again!

I can't recommend JKathleen (Tanner) enough as a pet sitter and dog walker. She took care of my two dogs—Max, a lovable but energetic Border Collie, and Bella, my sweet and slightly shy Labrador Retriever—and I was blown away by how well she handled them. Max is always on the go, and Bella can be a little hesitant around new people, but Tanner took the time to connect with both of them. She instantly made them feel at ease with her calm and gentle nature. Throughout the time she spent with them, I received regular updates with adorable photos and messages. It was clear that Tanner went above and beyond to ensure Max and Bella had a great time, whether it was going for a run in the park or enjoying a calm cuddle session. Her attention to their individual personalities and needs was truly impressive. Tanner’s love for animals shines through in everything she does. She’s responsible, caring, and truly treats pets like her own. If you want someone who will take great care of your furry family members, I wholeheartedly recommend Tanner.

Jonathan is excellent with my two excited yellow labs. He is able to calm them down quickly and they obey him right away. He walks both of them at the same time with no problems. I think it's his calm confident nature that the dogs respond to . He is patient but firm with young dogs. We are so pleased to have had him work with our dogs!

Despite her feline name, Kat is the biggest dog lover I've ever met! She has endless time and energy for engaging, playing with and caring for every dog I have had. She loves going on dog walks, is an expert fetch player and gives the best canine cuddles. When my 60+lb pibble injured his leg, she even carried him outside to go potty. I've had Kat as a dog sitter, but also as a house sitter. She's responsible, respectful, tidy, punctual and trustworthy. I always feel comforted when I know that Kat is in my home, caring for my dogs. I cannot recommend her more highly! She's the best!

Exceptional Sitting Service – Highly Recommended! I recently had the pleasure of using David services , and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I booked, their professionalism and attention to detail were evident. The sitter was punctual, friendly, and incredibly attentive, ensuring everything was handled with care. What stood out most was their genuine dedication and warmth. Whether it was keeping everything tidy, engaging with Jaycee and Jilly , or simply providing peace of mind, they exceeded expectations. Communication was seamless, and I felt completely at ease knowing everything was in capable hands. If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitting service, I highly recommend David. I will definitely be using their services again in the future!

Annika was just great! We were in town for a few days and decided to bring along our puppy for queenie. Problem is, no dogs allowed on the boardwalk! Annika was the perfect solution. She was friendly and sweet and queenie instantly loved her. She has her own sweet larger dog that was friendly and gentle with our tiny Pomeranian. Annika sent pictures and communicated throughout the day. If we’re ever in town and in a pinch again we’ll be sure to look up Annika!
