Jennifer was great; lots of pictures and updates. Looked like Pickles had a great time on her cat tree and playing with the cat toys. Will definitely be sending her back over when we're out of town again.

Pablo was wonderful with my dog Tubby! He sent an update with pictures every day. Tubby is usually afraid of strangers but warmed up to him instantly. I would definitely recommend Pablo!

My son’s dog Dobby stayed with Anthony and Nikita for about 10 days, and our experience couldn’t have been any better. Both are genuinely great, sweet people who love dogs. We did a meet and greet before dropping Dobby off, which I think was very helpful and put Dobby at ease when we finally dropped him off. They were very kind and attentive to Dobby’s needs. I was concerned about Dobby staying in someone else’s house with another dog because he is a rescue and he’s kind of skittish, but Dobby and Mia got along really well. Nikita sent me daily updates and photos and that was very reassuring. I also really appreciated the fact that they took Dobby out on hikes and walks with them. That was a real plus, since Dobby is an active dog. I would highly recommend Anthony and Nikita to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. I’ll be using them again in the future when I get a new dog!!! :)

Hanna is an attentive, proactive, and communicative pet sitter. She got back to me when I had questions almost immediately. When our dog was with her, we knew he was cared for. She was very transparent on our dog's activities and checked what we were or weren't comfortable with him doing during his stay. Overall, we were happy with her service!

Karen did a wonderful job taking care of my large dog during a long weekend. When I did an initial meet and greet with Karen and my energetic and somewhat excitable dog, her calm demeanor and knowledge of dogs put me at ease. During my pup's stay with Karen, he enjoyed a long hike through a beautiful park and rolled around in the grass in her enclosed backyard. Karen even got my dog used to a new, gentler harness. From what I could tell, my dog had a great time with Karen!

This was our second time having Sara board our pup, and she was awesome just like she was last time! It was over the New Year and we had forgotten to drop off our dogs thunder coat, but she did an amazing job helping him get through the stressful night of fireworks. She’s very communicative, responsive, and responsible, and I highly recommend her to anyone!

Oski had a wonderful time on his sleepover with Diksha! She so obviously loves dogs and if your dog is social like mine, they'll get to meet Diksha's neighbors and their dogs when they're there, too! Diksha sent photos of her playing with Oski, and was very caring and responsible. I would definitely like to have her watch Oski again!

Alexandra took great care of our dog while we went on a road trip. She made time to meet with us before confirming the booking and sent us pictures and a video of a happy Roxy during Roxy’s stay with her. Alexandra is also always accessible and accommodating, which made for a pleasant experience overall.

Chana & Jake were great with my dog - she is skittish and shy at first, but they helped her slowly acclimatize with dogs her speed so she could become more confident. I was so happy to receive daily unprompted updates on how she was settling in! I’ll definitely be boarding with them again in the futurw.

Lilly is amazing! She is very reliable, responsive, friendly and great to work with. She really spoiled our pup in the best way with lots of walks, pets, attention, and treats. She was able to give him a banana on a lick mat which is his favorite and sent lots of pics and videos every single day. Kevin looked like he had a so much fun playing and hanging out with Lilly and her husband. She and her husband provided exceptional care. Looking forward to using her services in the future. Thank you so much Lilly!

Megan and Jon are the absolute best pet sitters you will find. They took so much care making sure they had all the info they needed before sitting for our two puppies, they were easy to communicate with, and so caring. They gave us regular updates, including photos, and went out of their way to make sure our boys had a fun, safe, and enriching stay at their home. I was so at ease because I knew my boys were not only being watched, but also cherished. Can’t recommend them highly enough!

Tiffany and Lauren are absolutely wonderful caregivers to our pets. They have done both in-home care/housesitting as well as hosted our animals at their house - two pit mixes and two cats. I know that L&T will absolutely shower them with love and send us updates throughout the stay (including very sweet photos). They have cared for our animals at different life stages and are happy to adjust to the animal's specific needs, whether it is taking an energetic pup on a long walk or accommodating any physical limitations, including caring for our dog with significant mobility challenges. Their dog, Guapa, has always gotten along well with our dogs, and their cats are very comfortable around a variety of dogs since they have also hosted foster dogs in addition to petsitting. I feel very confident in the care that Tiffany and Lauren provide for our animals!
