Joshua was on the ball from inquiry to pick up. Excellent communication and care of our 13yo golden doodle. Their dog is a sweetie and Rosie loved the company. We're already rebooking! Thanks for taking such great care and giving Rosie the best possible experience away from us!

Maxine is communicative, reliable, flexible and will ensure you can sleep well at night knowing your pup baby is in good hands. We are so grateful for Maxine and she has become our puppy’s honorary auntie. Thank you Maxine.

Eileen was so patient and kind. My little guy had just experienced a stressful trip and found himself in Eileen’s care because Mom was going away again but this time without him. He was not his typical self and he was anxious. Eileen handled him so well and I am grateful for her excellent care.

Melinda and David were a perfect match for my sensitive hound pup. They were very friendly and warm, and it’s obvious they are true dog lovers. Not only did I feel at ease leaving my dog with them, but my dog was so comfortable after the first meet and greet he didn’t want to leave! They took him on walks and played in the yard, and updated me with pics daily. I highly recommend Melinda and David!

We had a wonderful experience! They’re incredibly kind, caring, and flexible — which made the whole process so easy and stress-free. We felt completely at ease leaving Jax, in their care. He was so happy to be with them, and we could tell he felt right at home! We also really appreciated the updates and knowing he was getting lots of love and attention. It means so much to have neighbors we can trust with our dog. We’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future!

We had a fantastic experience and couldn’t recommend them more. We received lots of photo updates throughout the stay and it was clear Monty was getting plenty of walks, attention, and love. He came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. Communication was great the whole time and it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with Erika again.

About: From a young age, we’ve nurtured a deep love for animals, caring for a wide range of pets with tenderness and compassion. We’ve always felt a strong connection to the animals we look after, seeing them as beloved companions. One of our proudest achievements is raising our dog from a puppy, guiding her through training to become a well-behaved, affectionate adult. We’ve also had the privilege of caring for a neighbor’s senior dog, providing comfort and companionship. This experience reflects our genuine passion for animals and our commitment to their happiness and well-being. We work remote with flexible work hours and have a dog of our own. She often goes for walks and of course requires some belly scratches. Our home has a fenced in yard and we personally have a 8 year old cocker spaniel that loves to play but then also likes to chill. She matches the energy around her. We do not have dog crates, if your fur baby is crate trained, we request you provide a crate for their stay.

My pup loved her time with Virginia. My dog is very anxious and has separation anxiety to the max, but was calm and relaxed the whole time she was with Virginia. She sent daily photos letting me know my pup was well cared for and loved. Can't recommend Virginia enough.

Virginia is an exceptional sitter, and we couldn’t ask for better care for our pup, Delilah. She’s highly communicative, consistently sharing timely updates with photos and videos, which gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. Delilah absolutely loves staying with her - especially getting to play with Cozy! They always have a ton of fun together, and it’s clear Delilah is genuinely happy there. Last time she stayed, Delilah went inside at drop off and forgot to say goodbye because she was so excited to be there 🥲 We never have to think twice about whether Delilah is in great hands. Virginia goes above and beyond every time. Highly recommend - she’s amazing!

Our original sitter canceled last minute due to a family emergency. I contacted Stephanie less than 24 hrs in advance, and she was able to accommodate our stay. My dog Loki can be very timid at first in new environments, but with time was able to open up within Stephanie’s home. She makes sure to send daily photos, updates, and also will take your dog for daily walks. I felt extremely comfortable having Loki there, and would book again in the future!
