“We were so pleased with the care that Diggy received from Melissa. Her place was neat and clean with a great fenced yard. She treated our pup like her own and we felt so good knowing that he was enjoying his time while we were away. Our family really enjoyed the picture updates that Melissa sent us so we could see that Diggy was doing well and having fun. Melissa was so accommodating and attentive to Digory, you can really tell that she cares about her own dogs and her doggy visitors. We will definitely book with Melissa again.”
“Justin was phenomenal! Highly recommend! He even gave my boy a bath! He was home with him almost always. Someone was always with my pup. Very communicative. Prompt. Sends photos and videos. My pup had a great time!”
“Rae and Dave are amazing caretakers! My dog is very attached to me so I needed the best pet sitters and I am so glad we had them! They gave her lots of love while I was away. I received daily photos and updates about my dog. She was walked, played with, and snuggled. They went ABOVE and BEYOND to help Skylar settle into their home while we were away. The fenced in back yard was awesome for exercise and bathroom breaks. My dog Skylar is a finicky eater. Rae worked with her and went the extra mile to get her to eat each day. I did not worry once on my trip as I knew my dog Skylar was in great hands the entire time I was gone! When I picked her up, she was happy and had adjusted well to their home! Rae and Dave are simply the best. They have a dog of their own so they understand how important it is to have a great pet sitter while on vacation!”
“Thanks again for another great visit! Journey loves staying with Bill, which makes for worry-free vacations. She is well taken care of and makes herself right at home. She gets plenty of walks, which she loves, and we know she gets plenty of snuggles. We are grateful!!”
“Peggy was great! She had to take in my dog to the vet LAST MINUTE ON CHRISTMAS EVE but didn’t complain so much as a minute. She was also able to get my dog into healthier habits and she lost those last couple pounds we were worried about! Absolutely amazing. 10/10 recommend.”
“Julianne is fantastic! Responsive, attentive, and caring, she made Taco feel right at home with plenty of space to run around both inside and outside. We highly recommend Julianne for all of your fur baby’s needs!”
“Chelsey was very attentive to our dogs and kept us posted on how they were doing daily. They had a lot of fun playing with her dog as well. She has a fenced yard they enjoyed. They were very well cared for while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend her for dog care.”

“Lola and her family did a great job caring for Josie. She was honest, and so sweet and gentle with my furbaby. I appreciate she was flexible with a meet and greet prior to boarding. I highly recommend Lola. Convenient, reasonable and very honest.”
About: I've watched dogs and cats of friends, family and strangers on and off for the past 10 years. I have experienced with small to XL dogs, young and older! I’m a stay at home mom. Our boys are rarely home alone for more than a couple hours at a time, a couple days a week. I have a fenced yard and two boys that are ready to play. They have unlimited access to the yard, toys and water. We have a cat who is very friendly, but will most likely keep to himself.
“De’Aysia was wonderful and very communicative! She kept me updated with regular videos and activities that’s Graham was doing and made sure that he got plenty of time inside,outside, and with other dogs.”
“Kayla and her family made our dogs feel at home. They were well cared for, we got daily updates and pictures. I really appreciate knowing how they are while I’m gone. Our dogs were happy to see us, but went back in the house to say good bye to the family before saying good by to Kayla and her family. Thank you all for the care and love you gave our fur babies.”
“Hailey is absolutely amazing! I am so grateful for the excellent care she provided for our dog Frank. From our meet and greet to pick up, Hailey was so easy to work with. I can tell she has a true heart for animals. We got pictures and communication every day we were gone, and she was so flexible with drop off and pick up. Hailey was THE BEST!!!!!”
“September did a wonderful job with our dog Digory. It was so nice knowing he was being so well taken care of and having such a great time while we were away! She sent lots of pictures of all the fun he was having which helped our kids so much while being away from him. We would definitely ask September to host Diggy again in the future!”
