1. Victor I.

“Victor kept me up to date on Archie. He sent lots of pictures. I felt very comfortable leaving Archie with Victor and will be doing it again soon. As much as Archie was glad to see me, he also was reluctant to leave Victor.”


2. Monica K.


“I don’t think we will ever be able to use another sitter besides Monica. Our pup is absolutely in love with her and their whole family and they provide excellent care! He is so happy there and so happy when we return, but usually very disappointed to leave their home! Monica is extremely professional, keeps you well informed of your pups days and just bursting with love for her part time babies. Looking forward to our next visit!”


3. Katie B.

“Katie was awesome to work with! Despite Rona being timid around other dogs Katie made her feel welcome and she ended up having a great time. I love knowing she’s not too far away and will definitely contact again in the future.”


4. Jennifer O.

“Jennifer was absolutely lovely! Her communication was impeccable and kept my anxious dog mama heart at ease. My sweet little angel baby was not exactly an angel out of her mom’s eyesight, and Jennifer was so accommodating and I can’t thank her enough! Twiggy came home so tired and I know she had a great time! Thank you again!”


5. Lindy S.


“Lindy helped us out on a bind when our normal sitter backed out on us last minute. She took great care of our dog and even sent us pictures throughout the trip. Her family treated Petunia like one of their own. We look forward to having Petunia stay again the next time.”


6. Ellison & Lisa C.

“I’ll leave a review because Coco loved them! They were wonderful with her and she had a blast. They sent us photos and kept us up to date on how she was doing. Thanks so much!”


7. Annie O.

“Annie was awesome with our golden retriever Charlie! We did a meet and greet a few weeks prior which I thought was a wonderful idea. During his stay at her house, she was very diligent about sending photos and made us feel at ease that she was taking such great care of him so we could truly enjoy our family vacation. We could tell Charlie made himself right at home at her place and he seemed to get along great with her pups. We ended up asking her if she could keep him longer as we were wanting to extend our vacation. She was very accommodating and added the additional days to the booking right away. She is very responsive which is so appreciated. We would absolutely recommend her to others. We would love for Charlie to stay with her again in the future! Thank you Annie!!”

“Evelin and Joel were great hosts, and took good care of Niki while we were out of town. Their place was well suited for three dogs, and Niki was fine after the initial meet-and-greet. Evelin and Joel kept us up to date with pictures and comments while we were gone. Thanks! Al & Billie”
