“Never a worry leaving Pepper with Jaime!! I know that she is always well cared for…and spoiled. Jamie and her family are very attentive. Pepper loves the horses and the other dogs at Jaime’s. Thanks again, Jamie!! Joe L.”
“My dog loves Miranda and now gets excited to go to her house. I don’t worry about a thing when she’s there because I know she’s in great hands. Thanks yet again, Miranda!”
“There's no better place than Álora's home. I felt good and at peace leaving my little one there. I know he enjoyed the atmosphere she creates through her personality. Now we know we've found a safe and trustworthy place. I'm sure my little Ollie enjoyed it immensely. We got the impression that they treated him like one of the family, and that says more than a thousand words.”
“Emily took such good care of our fur baby. We could see how happy he was in the daily photos she sent us. Great communication before and during our trip. When we had a last minute change in travel plans, Emily was very gracious and accommodating. We will definitely be asking her to care for Bear again.”
“Denita and her husband took care of my bullboxer and my granddaughter’s beagle while the family went on holiday for the long weekend. They were quick to reply if we sent a message, sent pics of our dogs enjoying their stay, and gave us a great overview of their stay when we picked them up. My girl went from shy and insecure to acting like she lived there. Before we booked, we met them and visited for about an hour while our pups got acquainted with them and their pups. I have never left my girl with anyone but family, but now I feel as if I can. Thanks so much!”
“Georgie enjoyed a lot with Kayley and her family. They treated her as their own pack member and shared a bunch of pictures of them having fun every day. Thank you!”
“Christina and Brent were awesome! We are new to the area and this was our first time leaving our pups with someone we didn’t know. We were sent pictures all weekend and updated on how they were doing which I really appreciated! I could tell our pups were loved on all weekend and I know they had a blast because they were pooped when we got home. They were both extremely nice and we will definitely book with them the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Brittany was great! She sent me pictures every day, and told me how good they were doing. She even cleaned their ears! I was very pleased with her and will definitely use her again!”
“Marluce and her family were great. You can tell they love animals. Bella was in good hands. She took Bella for walks and threw the ball with her in their fenced backyard. Bella got along fine with their dog Cassie and we got lots of pics. We will definitely have Bella stay with her again, in fact she is staying with her again this week! Thanks Marluce and family!”
“Best sitter ever!! She's so accommodating! Her home has a great open floor plan and is off the road. She has kennels for those who need/like them but for my boy, the whole family treated him just like we do! He is 4 and has never been away from us, so this was scary, but he acted completely happy and that gave us peace to enjoy our vacation!! I could see his joy in the pictures she sent us. Thank you Echo!! We can't wait to use you again!!”
“Our golden retriever always feels right at home at what we’ve now dubbed “Aunt Kristen’s”. I think he gets a little sad when he comes home because he loves playing with the other pups so much! We are so thankful for a dependable sitter and drive 30 minutes just for the love Kristen and family provides!”
“Christa was amazing! She communicated daily with photos and updates on our two dogs. We were gone for six nights. Both drop off and pick up were easy and quick. Our dogs were worn out when I picked them up which let me know they had plenty of space and time to play and roam. I would book with Crista again in the future. She treated our dogs like family, and even took an Easter posed photo of our dogs! :)”
“Kelley is absolutely a gem of a find! Not only did she accept us with my very honest assessment of my pup being “different” but she really got to know her for the wonderful dog she is! If I’m ever back down that way, I will definitely be giving Kelley a call!”
“Bethany did a great job making our 2 feel at home! The lab got lots of play time outside and in the water. The corgi got lots of pampering inside. Appreciated all of the pictures and videos!”
“Lola seemed to really enjoy her stay with Tish. She had lots of sweet furry friends to hang out with while we were away. She came back to us calm and relaxed like she'd been at a spa. I highly recommend Tish as a sitter. She is clearly experienced with many different dog breeds and has a perfect demeanor for putting your pup at ease. You can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”
“We just moved to the area and didn’t have any loved ones to watch after our pup. However, we immediately felt safe leaving our pup in their care and hope to use them again in the future!”

Mercedes doggysat our Sophia for 2 nights. She sent us sweet pictures and updates during our time away. With each picture I could see that our sweet maltipoo was so happy and felt comfortable where she was. A home away from home :) We felt complete peace knowing our Sophia was in such loving hands. We will definitely be requesting Mercedes to watch Sophia in the future. Definitely recommend!
Ruth was a good fit for our medium-sized dog who is 8 years old. He and Ruth’s bigger dog got along fine. Our dog is used to being walked, since we don’t have a fenced-in yard, so it worked perfect that Ruth takes her dog on two walks a day. She was very accommodating to our dog’s pickiness with eating. I would definitely use her again.
