1. Jennifer B.


“Max and Dale had a great time! Whenever you have to leave your pets somewhere, they usually have a period of anxiety then you pick them up, but with staying at Jennifer's they "never skipped a beat" and were just fine right away. They had fun with the other dogs too!”


2. Jessica T.


“We would definitely recommend and feel comfortable using Jessica in the future. Jessica sent us daily updates and pictures of Libby, keeping us informed of her eating and wellbeing. All of which put our minds at ease considering this was Libby’s first time away from us! 🐾”


3. Charles T.

“Our pup had so much fun staying with Charles! She had lots of attention, cuddles, and playtime with puppy pals. I love that she wasn't put in a kennel and was allowed to sleep in a home environment.”


4. Brandy M.

“Brandy did such a great job watching my dog! She was super prompt, communicative, and flexible, and sent lots of pictures while I was away. Will definitely go back to her again!”


5. Jessica H.

“Jessica is great! She picked up immediately on our dogs’ personalities and their relationship and behaviors with one another and other people and dogs. She asked all the right questions and gave me a lot of comfort leaving them in her capable hands for a long vacation and also sent updates that made the whole family happy that they were enjoying their own vacation. Thanks Jessica!”


6. Liz S.


“On a scale of 1 to 10, Liz is a 10+ dog boarder/caregiver. It was quite apparent in the photos and videos she sent that my 2 girls felt loved and were very happy. They made new fur friends, having such a fun time playing with Liz's 2 oh so sweet pups. I would highly recommend Liz if you need dog boarding services.”


7. Susy L.

“Susy was great with our Zoey! Zoey is very attached to us and we were very nervous to leave her, but Susy soon stole her heart! Zoey made herself right at home and quickly became protective over Susy, which means she must have been giving lots of love and treatos to Zoey. Susy sent lots of pictures and updates that showed just how much love Susy was giving Zoey and how much fun Zoey was having! Would definitely recommend trusting Susy with your pets :)”

12. Alivia G.
About: I have years of experience in Veterinary Medecine, I am very gentle and caring, I care for the well being of all animals, so excited to start this journey! I do work part time/ full time, I am able to help as much as possible, we can figure out a good routine as well. I respect the owners wishes, do as they say for their pets , for my pets I walk on a leash multiple times a day, play with them , and give them the affection they need.


13. Casey B.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes! I have a little dachshund named steel who is a couch potato with the occasional zoomies as well as a 6 year old son who loves anything furry and sweet. I work 8:30-3 but only 7 mins from home and can pop in on my lunch if needed. Otherwise home and ready to play with fur babies I do not have a fenced in yard but do have space where they could get their zoomies out. Welcome to be on furniture and even better if they snuggle my kiddo in bed.


14. Danique M.

“As always, the pups came home tired and happy!”


15. William W.

“Made a very frantic afternoon much better by taking a last minute reservation. Very accommodating and understanding.”




16. Lesley C.


“Lesley took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. We were in a bind and needed someone last minute. She responded immediately and was very flexible. She sent us updates, pictures, and a video to let us know how he was doing. It was obvious that he was having a great time with Lesley. We will definitely use her again!”


17. Cheralyn D.

“Cheralyn was absolutely amazing! She was very nice and patient with my cat. You can tell she absolutely loves animals and her care shows it. She sent plenty of texts and pictures with updates throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend everyone uses Cheralyn’s services! And will refer her to my friends! We will def use her services again!!”




18. Margaret W.
About: I would be a great sitter because of my love for animals. I have my own dogs and cats I take care of and I have sitted for neighbors animals since I was little and they always came back to me and asked if I would watch there animal again cause I did such a good job. I won't just feed and walk your dog. I will also give them love and play with them while they are with me. That's why you should choose me as your dog sitter. I would do a really good job and you will want to come back to me for my servous again. You defiantly will love coming to me for me caring for your dogs as if there were my own.

“Mackenzie was perfect for our two pups! Welcoming, easy to communicate with and our dogs loved her pups and had a great week of playing and hanging! Would definitely use again!”


20. Sara D.

“Sara and her husband took great care of my golden retriever Simba. Sara sent multiple pictures and videos everyday and keep me posted about how Simba was doing. She took care of Simba like one of her owns and made him feel at home. She provided toys and hours of playtime. We can tell Simba has a blast at Sara’s home and we definitively will continue using her services. 100% recommended!”
