“Our Miss Lexie had a wonderful stay. Chawntea treated our baby girl like family. She made new furry friends, which helps her socialization skills. Chawntea was so flexible with our ever-changing travel plans. Shout out to Southwest. She sent updates and pics while we were away, which brought smiles to our faces. Without a doubt, we will be using her services in the future.”
“Sunday has been through a lot of difficult changes recently—a move, the loss of her doggy best friend and just normal growing up. Sunday is a sweet girl but can be high energy, anxious and a little mischievous. Megan and Jenny handled Sunday like absolute pros. Sunday was entertained with walks and lots of play time in their sweet house/yard. Jenny + Megan are responsible, reliant, and absolutely in love with their dog friends, not to mention flexible and easy-going—they treated Sunday like their own and I feel so thankful to have found such loving people to look after my girl. From the very first interaction they have been so responsive and accommodating! I hope to rebook them again soon, just so Sunday can get her fix!”
“Zo is godsend! I would not know what do if it were not her, I would absolutely book again! She took in our very shy and timid cat, our precious baby girl when everybody rejected her and on short notice. She absolutely cared for our cat like a child and was communicative on photos, daily activities, and behaviors. Thank you so much!”
“Suzanne was GREAT with my little man, Rexxar. Rex is a pretty high anxiety dog, and doesn’t deal with separation well. She addressed that, made sure he was loved and cared for while I was on vacation. He loved the stay!!! 13/10, will definitely bring him back if the need ever arises 💕”
“Anna & Jason & Lucky were amazing. Super communicative. They sent pictures & videos throughout my trip, which allowed me to enjoy myself. Would not hesitant to re-book in the future!”
“Absolutely wonderful from start to finish! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I had a few specific instructions for my pup’s stay, and not only were they followed perfectly—they even offered helpful suggestions and kept me updated with pictures and videos the whole time. The level of care and attention my dog received was outstanding, and I could tell he felt right at home the moment we arrived. There’s a warm, calming energy in this home that you can feel immediately and clearly, my pup felt it too. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be booking again whenever I’m out of town. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to see you all again soon!”
“Lee was absolutely amazing! We boarded our two pups for the first time ever and they’re not always the most friendly with other dogs, but it all went great and they had the time of their lives! Lee sent tons of photos to keep us updated. 10/10 recommend, we will definitely drop our pups off at hers again 😊”
“We left the country and left our German Shepard our love , our precious Lexi with Chad . And while we traveled we felt she was safe,cozy,happy and comfortable even though she missed us . Thank you Chad .”
“My little guy had the BEST time with Andrea, Bennett, & Abby. He was happy as a clam when I picked him up! Lots of photos & video were sent and communication was great.”
“Alexandra is a great sitter. She was very careful to gather information so she could personalize care for my dog. And she sent text and video updates. Would definitely take my dog here again!”
“Robin and Dan were AMAZING with my senior tripod Peg. This was our first time apart since I began fostering her in January (followed by adopting her), she has severe separation anxiety and I knew it was going to be tough on her. I completely underestimated how tough though, sweet Peg went through some real mourning, however, she was in the most perfect hands ever. Robin was quick to text when there was an issue, quick to reply to any of my questions, gave me updates and photos, and was so unbelievably patient with Peg. And Dan very sweetly figured out she enjoys the tv! I am so thankful for Robin and Dan, and their patience and kindness, they are such wonderful people. Peg says “Thank you for my sleepover Aunt Robin and Uncle Dan””
“Wonderful pet sitters! Very dependable and trustworthy. They took great care of our shy pup for a week. They have a big back yard which is fully fenced in and our boy loved lounging around in the sun. Would totally recommend and book them again!”
“Jeff and Kim were amazing hosts! They were incredibly accommodating with the drop-off, sent tons of cute pictures of Maddie having fun, and were again amazing in the pick-up when we had complications getting home from the airport. We 100% will be using Jeff and Kim when our pupper needs someone caring and understanding to take care of her - we've already booked her next stay!”
“Golda and her husband Manny took care of our dog like it was their own, sent pics/videos, we were constantly updated during our quick little trip. The took her for walks and she interacted with their dogs, it was a mini-vacation for her too! We will for sure have Golda sit for her again.”
“Kelly is the best pet sitter. She treats pets as if they are people. My dog Philly absolutely loves Kelly. Kelly sends endless photos/videos, and returns Philly to me showered and with homemade treats. Thank you so much Kelly, and 10/10 recommend.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Megan! She watched our pup for us while we’d were out of town for 4 nights. She was so amazing with updates and pictures. I could tell our pup had a great time and felt comfortable. Will definitely book again! :)”
“We’re so grateful to have found someone we can fully trust with our two high-needs dogs. One of our pups has both behavioral quirks and lingering physical limitations from back surgery, which means he sometimes needs cleanup after potty breaks. The other is young and energetic and a handful in her own way. Hy handled them both with total competence, patience, and care. She and Arlo provided a safe, calm, and understanding environment and kept us updated throughout with frame-worthy photos. Because of them, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation without worry. We can’t recommend them enough!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Koko received from Miki. She helped me to pickup my rescue dog from the shelter. The situation it’s very difficult for me when I am living out of state. It was very clear how kind, responsible, and genuinely loving she is with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while waiting for someone transport Koko back to AZ. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Highly highly recommend!”
“Finn had such a good time at Vanessa’s. He was safe and well cared for and we are very appreciative!”
“Sherry and Enzo were great with Duke! He was happy and entertained the whole time. I could tell because she sent plenty of pictures. Duke almost didn’t want to leave. Thank you, Sherry”
