“Aiden cared for our Labrador Retriever in our home for three weeks. He cultivated a close bond with her over that time and provided lots of exercise, love and attention. Our dog clearly adores Aiden. Further, we arrived back home to a clean and cared for house. We will definitely ask Aiden to dog sit in the future.”

“This is the second time Peps has stayed at our house taking care of our two dogs, and we'd heartily recommend them. We really appreciated the communication (texts, photos and videos) and the care taken. Our dogs are a little demanding, and Peps was totally unfazed and adaptable. We were very comfortable that the dogs were in good hands.”

“I’m 100% satisfied with Azure housesitting and watching my high energy working GSD. She provided photos of their adventures and I had peace of mind that my dog was in great hands.

We absolutely will use Stone again and trust her with our babies!”
