From the moment we met Jane, we knew our fur baby was in the best hands. She sent pictures in the morning and in the evening took him on various doggy trips. He got walks multiple times a day, and always look content in his pictures. We feel grateful that we found such a great giver of love for our pooch. We recommend Jane highly for your pooches dog sitting needs!

Hannah was great and Jaxson looked like he was happy in the pictures that Hannah sent, which was much appreciated. We were able to easily arrange a meet and greet with her prior to our scheduled vacation, so that Jaxson could meet her and her dog prior to his vacation with her. I would recommend Hannah and will definitely check her availability the next time we need someone to watch Jaxson.

We were really happy with the care Kodiak received during her stay. We loved the picture updates and hearing what she was up to while we were gone. Kodi came home much more relaxed than she ever has after staying at the kennel. Thanks for taking care of our girl! We will definitely look to book again for future care.

Maddie was so great! I needed someone last minute and she was quick to respond and so nice. This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I got regular pictures and updates, and though I was worried my dog would be anxious it was clear she was having a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Maddie again!

Matthew was amazing. I’ve only had Oakley for two weeks and am still getting to know his habits, on top of the fact that he is already 85 lbs, but none of that bothered Matthew. He sent daily pictures and confirmed that all was going well. He is very relaxed and Oakley got along very well with his three dogs. Matthew has a very large backyard and a 100’ lead that was great for Oakley since he loves to just lay outside. I highly recommend Matthew and will be using him again.

Julie was wonderful as always! Murphy had the best time for the 2 weeks over the holidays with lots of videos, pictures, and updates. During the stay, Murphy had a senior moment but Julie took care of him no problem. She was also very flexible and communicative when my flight home was delayed 5 hours. Julie is dependable, experienced, and such a great pet companion. Highly recommend!

This was the first time leaving my 4 month old puppy with someone and I was absolutely anxious and terrified. Monica agreed to pre-meet n greet where she bonded with Reggie instantly. During my trip she was so communicative and never made me feel bad about my constant checking in. She sent photos and videos multiple times and day and gave updates on his potty training. As a puppy, he did have an accident or two in her house, but she was completely understanding about it. Overall her positive attitude and sweet demeanor made my feel better than I thought I would, leaving my baby behind for the first time. 100% would use her again and recommend her to anyone with a puppy or dog needing special care and love. Thank you, Monica!

We feel so comfortable leaving our blind dog with Nathan. He took very good care of her - getting her settled and comfortable inside and helping her navigate steps, avoid salt, and gear up for cold temperatures outside. He was easy to schedule with and was quick to respond to questions.

Our furbabies have a second home with Megan and Alex. They are treated with such love and care. We have some complications with food and medicines and they take care of it perfectly. I never worry when they are at their house. We are repeat clients and our girls are so excited every time they go. Communication is stellar and we get photos that show what a great time they are having - even if our one dog just prefers to sleep at their feet while they work! :) We will be back as long as they have us! Thank you for putting a neurotically worried doggie mama's mind at ease. Highly recommend.
