1. Janet & Saar Z.

“Our dog Riley is pretty shy/timid initially so we weren’t sure how she’d do, but from all of the pictures and updates from Janet and Saar throughout the weekend it was clear that she had a great time, settled in quickly, and loved running around the big backyard and playing inside and out with all of her new friends. Janet and Saar are very kind and responsive and clearly took great care of Riley while she was with them”

12. David & Jessica S.

“What a wonderful experience from beginning to end with David and Jessica! They were extremely responsive leading up to my dog’s stay and provided us ongoing updates (with pics!) during the stay.

18. Cynthia G.
“Cynthia was the best pet sitter I’ve ever had - she treated my sweet girl as her own! I have a very skiddish and shy dog who grew to fully trust Cynthia in a very short amount of time which doesn’t happen often. I’m so happy to have found her and will definitely be using her for all of my future travels! Thank you again Cynthia!!”


19. Angelina & Ronald H.
