“Bruce was kind and excellent with our goldendoodle for 10 days! He provided an update morning and evening even though I was traveling overseas! Definitely recommended Bruce”
“I highly recommend Gaileen! I had never left my senior dog with anyone other than family before and Gaileen was great at making my dog comfortable and sending me updates! She has been professional, reliable, and caring. My dog is looking forward to more overnights with her! 😊”
“Howard was so wonderful with our two girls! We used to use a local kennel and after the last few stays, we could tell our girls were not happy - finding Howard gave us the peace of mind that they could stay at home in an environment which they were comfortable with and felt safe. Knowing we were nervous with our first go at this, Howard sent plenty of updates and pictures to put mom & dad at ease. We are already rebooking him for our next trip and highly recommend him for others in the Westville area!!”
“Kristin took such good car of our dog while we were away for over a week!! She sent pictures every day and kept us up to date on everything, excellent communication before, during and even after our stay to check in how he was settling back in at home. Will definitely use her again, thank you for making Otto feel so at home!”
“Elizabeth is the absolute best with our dogs! Our older dog was having some GI issues and she went out of her way to cook for her and keep us updated. When we picked her up the issues were resolved and our dogs were so happy!!! The updates she gave daily were a great comfort and she was extremely responsive ☺️”
“Absolute best choice we could have made for my baby boy Banana. It was his first time away from home and he lived her family. She kept in contact so well. A million thank yous to her and her some Jame. I will bring him back to visit I promis.”

“Noemi & David were absolutely wonderful with my dog - she felt right at home immediately, and they were just so kind. The whole family welcomed her with open arms and Noemi sent lovely pictures of Della enjoying her weekend. Thanks again for taking such great care of my girl!”
“We left our Bernese Mountain Dog with Kara for a week and a half and had so much peace of mind knowing he was being loved as much as we love him. Kara was great and sent us many pictures and updates throughout our time away. I have to say, our doggie looked like he was smiling in all of the pictures...I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home :) I highly recommend Kara to love your pets in your absence!”
“Karina did an excellent job looking after my dog while I was away for the weekend. This was my first time having someone watch him, and her regular updates and photos kept me from worrying. Her friendly dog was an added bonus, and it was clear from the moment I picked up Teddy that he had been well-loved and cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Karina again for future trips.”
“Morgan was great, Milo had initially a bit of a hard time adapting to new spaces but she was very very good at making him feel safe and at communicating with me throughout the time I was away. I just took him home and he is very relaxed and playful. I am very satisfied and will definitely book her again!”
“John and Wendy were outstanding sitters for our pup, Charlie. They stayed in touch regularly with videos, photos, and updates. Our dog had so much fun running outside on their beautiful property and snuggling up with them on the couch and bed. Definitely recommend!”
“Michelle saved us after a last minute cancellation with another sitter. She was ready to take in our boy within an hour and kept him overnight. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Shelly is amazing! Not only did she accept our last minute booking, she went out of her way to meet us prior to our trip. She is very kind and sweet. Bagel took an immediate liking to her and she kept us updated with amazing pictures. I will absolutely be booking her again! Thank you Shelly.”
“Beth and her husband were wonderful. They watched my Jules at a last minute. They made him feel so comfortable and kept sending me updates. I highly recommend them as they are very nurturing to animals”
