1. Samantha & Jacob D.
“Sam is the best! Not only did she take great care of our doodle Finnegan, she was understanding and willing to work with his needs. He’s a nervous boy, and is protective over hubs and myself, but she listened and was able to work with him so he was comfortable at her house. He and her pup Tacko made friends and had a great time playing in the back yard. She sent pics, and was responsive anytime I messaged her before and during our pups stay. I would highly recommend Samantha and Jacob, and would not hesitate to leave Finnegan with them again!”
2. Hannah L.
“Absolutely wonderful and took such good care of our pooch. We got pictures daily and he was so clearly loved while being there! Definitely recommend!”
3. Magdiel G.
“Mike went above and beyond and I couldn’t have asked for better care for my dog while I was away. And my dog can be annoying with how vocal she is at times, but Mike was very understanding. He brought my dog everywhere and she got so much exercise and is now crashed on the couch next to me after coming home. He also sent so many pictures and videos, which I absolutely loved. Will definitely be booking with him again for future trips!”
4. Danielle T.
“Danielle was one of the best dog sitters I have ever had for Lady. She cared so much and treated Lady like her own. I am so lucky to have found her in Charleston. And I’ve already booked another stay for Lady with her.”
5. Bootsie T.
“Bear had a great time with Bootsie! We got frequent updates and pictures during our time away. He was super relaxed and happy when he came back- we would highly recommend them!”
6. Carrie M.
“Carrie made sure our Oscar was welcomed in her home. Although we missed him, based on the video of Oscar at play, I don't think he missed us. Carrie was sensitive to our concerns as we had just received Oscar as a rescue about a month before. Looking forward to working with Carrie again. Again, Carrie thank you for your hospitality on behalf of Oscar”
7. Julia S.
“Julia was awesome! I went down to Charleston for the weekend and wanted to bring my pup but leave her somewhere close so she didn’t have to be in a hotel by herself while we did tourist activities. She was super flexible with us with pickup times and very responsive to messages. I’d love to rebook with her and her sweet pup again if I’m back in the area.”
8. Mike H.
“Mike has a true love for all animals and it shows. He is so sweet to my little dog ensuring she's treated like a princess!”
9. Matthew & Ashley D.
“Winston had a great time! He got to run around and play with other dogs. Matthew & Ashley sent many photos of him playing and kept me updated during his stay! I will definitely be using them again!”
10. Allie L.
“Allie was amazing. She took the best care of my ten year old pup. Watching out for her and making sure she was cared for, had treats, and time to rest. Every day Ms Allie sent updates and photos of The Homs so I knew she was safe and happy. I could not ask for better service. If you need someone to care for your fur baby, Ms Allie will love yours like her own.”
11. Mandy J.
“Mandy was fantastic with my dog, Charlie! Awesome communication and updates throughout day at her pet friendly home. Charlie got plenty of exercise and play with her pup. She is top notch! Highly recommend allowing her to take care of your furry friends. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her in the future.”
12. Kathy F.
“Kathy took wonderful care of Penny during her stay, kept her comfy and happy, and gave Penny daily medication. We'd definitely book with Kathy again!”
13. Shea M.
“Shea was fantastic with our pup Teddy. We did a tester night before a longer trip in a few months and I have zero hesitations about leaving Teddy with her for a week. He was very well cared for and got lots of loving.”
14. Ilene R.
“Ilene was awesome. She was quick to respond to any questions and was so accommodating. She looked after our dog like she was her own. Whenever we travel in the future we will be sure to book again.”
15. Michelle H.
“Michelle is great with our dog! This is our second time with Michelle. I appreciate her updates and efforts to make our pup feel like one of her own. I have no plans on letting our dog stay with anyone else!”
16. Celine Rose A.
“Celine is amazing and Jack had the best time with her and her adorable pups. He came home very happy and tired! We got lots of wonderful photos during our travels :)”
17. John J.
“Our Family has always cared for Animals; So it was only natural that we chose John to take care of Blair ( Rotty/Doberman mix). Blair can be over energetic, but around John, she is the calmest version of herself. After every stay with John, Blair comes home calm and content and more attentive than the last time. Whenever we pull into his yard, Blair goes crazy because she's looking forward to her day🥰👍🔥🐾🐾🐕. John has become a part of our family, and I would not feel comfortable leaving our pup with anyone-else. Once you meet John you'll understand for yourself why your pet will Adore him🥰!”
18. Abbie B.
“I felt very comfortable, safe, and secure with my dog Tubbs in Abbie’s care. She has great communication, is kind and caring, and Tubbs was in the best mood when I picked him up (I’m not certain he wanted to leave!). Highly recommend, will definitely rebook!”
19. Rebecca M.
“I am an over anxious dog mom and am apprehensive to leave my babies with a sitter. But my two dogs walked right into Rebecca's home and I could instantly see how comfortable they were! Rebecca gave my dogs the same kind of love and attention that I do! My dogs got to play outside and get extra love from her family members! I will deffinitly use Rebecca in the future and would 100 percent recommend her to any anxious dog parents like me!”
20. Juniasly F.
“She will love and take care of your dog as if the dog was hers. My dog absolutely loved her. We will absolutely use her again. She also stayed in touch with us and responds very fast. Thank you again!!”
