“Kristin took awesome care of our kitties Lumi and Lockon. She was great with Lockon’s medicine. Her family accepted the cats and was very welcoming. Kristin is amazing and she provided consistent updates sending videos and pictures. I would definitely recommend her and go back to her 😊”
“Brody loved his stay. He had ample time to run around with other dogs in the spacious backyard. We also received photos and videos each day to show how much fun he was having. We will definitely book here again!”
“Our dog, Taz, had a great time staying with Howard and Kathleen. We've dropped him off on a few occasions for doggy daycare and he has stayed with them for a few days while we were out of town. You can tell by the way he walks up the stairs to their place, tail wagging, that he likes hanging out there. Howard and Kathleen were also very flexible with our travel schedule which was a bit up in the air and meant we had to reschedule some of Taz's vists. We would definitely recommend.”
“Always a pleasure to take Peanut to Brianna. We can see Peanut is taken great care of at Brianna's. When Peanut got off the car, he happily led us to Brianna's without being distracted by other things on the street. When we pick him up, he's very happy and we can see he had a great time and has lots of affection for Brianna. Brianna sent us photo updates and generously accommodated us in terms of our schedule. Thanks Brianna!”
“Stephanie did a great job caring for our Hugo! He came back to us happy and healthy :) We especially appreciated how quick Stephanie was to respond and send updates. Would 100% book with her again!”

“Noemi was wonderful with my dog and accomodating to my last minute booking! She sent me daily doggy mail and updated me on his activities. She has a beautful large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and play. Very pleasant and my dog seemed happy when i picked him up also so i know he enjoyed himself! Will definitely book with Noemi again!”
“Mikayla and Justin took great care of Scooby, especially when he was anxious about hearing fireworks - they comforted him and played some calming music for him. They also sent regular and detailed updates with many pictures!”

“Janelle was great with our dogs! She was responsive in her communication in booking our stay, asked good questions and made sure she understood our requirements during our meet and greet, and kept us updated on how our pets were doing while we were away. We had such a good experience and booked another session immediately after our first!”
“During our vocation, Tiffany sent us photos every day of Scout having the time of his life… Hanging out on the couch with her kids, running around the yard with her dog Mia and even giving the side eye to her cat. He came home happy and smelling even better than when he left. We have found our new go-to pet sitter!”
“Left our pup for 6 nights with Dyan. Leaving him was somewhat traumatic for us as we typically travel with him. But Dyan made us very comfortable that our pup was doing great. Nightly photos of our pup and hers showed us that he was just fine. He went on many walks and he got along great with Aiko. Thanks Dyan for taking such great care of our pup .”

“Agnes was wonderful with our 14yr old cockapoo. She is an older dog set on her ways and can be nervous around other dogs. We received and update from Agnes and appreciate the care she offered to our Sasha.”
“Melanie did an exceptional job with my dog Zoey! I could tell she was very loved and cared for at Melanie’s house. I got photos and updates daily. I’ll definitely use her again, she’s fantastic.”
