“It was my first time having Suki stay with someone else and Kristopher made the experience stress free! We got updates on Suki, including a picture! Wonderful experience!”


“We were very pleased from drop off to pick up! Rex made us feel very confident that our "baby" would be just fine. We received updates and pictures during her 3 night stay which we appreciated. Rex and his wife were very accommodating regarding our changing drop off and pick up times as well.”


“We had to find a sitter on fairly short notice for a 2 week vacation. I was really nervous about using this app and leaving my puppy with someone i didnt know. Katlynn was so easy to work with and accomodating. She sent me photos every day and and he came home happy and healthy. I will definately book with Katlynn again, if she'll have him :)”



“Kelli did such an AMAZING job with Ellie, I was so anxious and she sent me updates multiple times! I could not have asked for anyone better to take care of my fur baby. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”


“Jamie was great with our high energy needs dog, Maggie. She’s a border collie/blue heeler mix that is a good dog, but only if she’s exercised her body (and mind) enough. We loved having picture updates over our long weekend away. And by the second night I knew everything would be okay and that Jamie had the compassion and care needed for a dog like Maggie. We’re SO happy to have found Jamie and will definitely be requesting her services again!!”


“Wendi was wonderful. She took Copper on several adventures, provided a ton of pics, and was very communicative. She had a lovely little dog “area” in her house that was very well equipped and seemed so comfortable. Would absolutely use her again.”



“Romeo just loved Kathy's. He met new friends and felt comfortable from the very start of his vacation at Kathy's. We intend to rebook with Kathy many times in the future.”


“We are so grateful we found Deb!!! Coco absolutely had a fabulous over night visit with her and Rainy. She has a beautiful property with a special suite just for fur baby visits!!! She sent us videos and pics while were gone over night which helped me feel even more comfortable.... it was the first time I was away from Coco over night since we brought her home. She really went above and beyond our expectations! Next time we need someone to take care of Coco, Deb will be the first call we make!!!”


“Larry was very kind and soon made good friends with our pitbull Jersey. He was very responsive to texts and we were very happy to see our happy pup when we returned home from holiday travels. Thank you Larry!”



“I had JoAnn take care of my dog, Leah, for three weeks. While I was away, JoAnn kept me updated on how she was doing with photos and texts. My dog appeared to be very comfortable and happy while she was there. JoAnn was a great fit for Leah and I certainly would recommend her. I plan to have JoAnn take care of my dog again and have already booked another stay with her.”


“There is so much good to say. Denali was well cared for and looked after. I received many videos and pictures of Denali playing with other dogs and enjoying a good healthy environment. I will definitely recommend and definitely return all of my dog care sitting business to.Taya.”


“Amazing! Third time Max stays with Loretta! Once again, looking at photos I feel like Max thinks that Loretta’s place is his place. To the point, I guess he becomes conflicted in between coming back home or staying there longer. 😂😂😂”


“Melissa was absolutely fabulous!!! I am definitely the definition of helicopter mom when it comes to my dog. Melissa was amazing she allowed us to come by before the booking to meet her dogs and her. Then once the trip began she was fantastic constantly updating and sending me photos of my boy…heath is a covid puppy and VERY bonded to me and it was soo amazing to see him happy and comfortable while i was gone!! Thank you Melissa for being so wonderful!! Heath cant wait for the next trip so he can come back and play!”



“This is my second time bringing my dog to Natasha. My dog was so excited to see her and ran up to her door and never looked back to say goodbye to me 😂. He gets a lot of interaction and play time with her dogs. I would 100% recommend Natasha to take care of your pet. I have zero worries while away”


“Thank you for giving our fella a try, this was his first experience similar to this and we appreciate your help and feedback. Lots of updates and photos were provided to help ease our concerns.”


“The perfect sitter for an anxious fur baby. Heavan put both my dog and myself at ease giving multiple updates with pictures while I was out of town for a night. My extremely anxious pooch settled right in which allowed me to enjoy my night away without worry.”


“This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy we found Suraya, she was amazing! She kept our golden, Charlie for 7 days and provided updates and pictures the entire time. He was just as happy when we picked him up as he was when we dropped him off. We will definitely be using Suraya again for our future dog sitting needs and highly recommend her to anyone looking for care ☺️”
