Konnie was absolutely great! She came a week before our trip to meet our pup and get to know him. Then when our trip arrived she did everything we asked and then some! You can tell she really does just love being around animals!

Randy is wonderful! My dog was happy and my house was clean! You can’t ask for anymore than that. I don’t want to rave about him because then he will get too busy to sit for me ! Finley and I like Randy a lot!!

This was a last minute booking that Tara was quick to respond to and set up a meet/greet for. I was very nervous to leave the dogs as we just recently rescued one with severe trauma/fear and another one healing from a recent surgery and still getting used to having his new brother in the house. I knew they needed someone very attentive and knowledgeable—Tara was just that and beyond! We had a slight issue that we did not anticipate with our rescue doggie and Tara was quick to inform us and navigate the issue to ensure both our dogs were happy and healthy in her care!

What an absolute pleasure it was to have our dogs loved and cared for while we traveled. Breyeanna gave us frequent updates and sent wonderful photos. Our dogs are not friendly with strangers and Breyeanna became family to them. We were thrilled with the outcome. Thank you so much for caring for our dogs.

Thank you so much for staying with my girl while I was out of town! I couldn't be happier with how well my pup was cared for. She sent pictures regularly throughout the day and kept me informed of how my pup was doing. 100% would recommend to anyone for any critter.

Lori did a very nice job watching our pets while we were on vacation. They were well fed, she took the dogs outside often and watered our plants. She sent pictures of our pets every day and told us how they were doing. She informed us when she was leaving the house for a while and didn't stay away very long. We were impressed how well our chihuahuas liked her. Our dogs don't like very many people....at all. We look forward to having Lori watch our pets when we go on vacation again.

Kaitlyn was an absolute life saver, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our 3 Pomeranians! Kaitlyn was able to watch our dogs all day while we were off getting married, and she made sure everything was perfect with the dogs and our home so we could fully relax and enjoy our special day without having to worry about our fur-babies. We HIGHLY recommend Kaitlyn as she's punctual, attentive, and the dogs LOVE her, which is obviously a great sign! We wish we could give more than 5 stars to represent just how great Kaitlyn is/was! We can't thank Kaitlyn enough, and we can't wait to have her spend time with our dogs again soon!

Tabbi tackled a crazy household! 4 big dogs, a cat, turtles, fish, chickens, turkeys and a lizard! For two weeks!!!! We arrived back home and everyone was happy and healthy! A few issues happened while we were gone and Tabbi was able to figure out and problem solve with us not being there! Really appreciate all her hard work and care for our babies.

Mallery was so amazing watching our pets! She watched our dog, Bash, for 11 days in our home and we also had two cats that she loved on and gave lots of attention to as well. She took great care of our home and brought our mail in for us which was so nice! We got updates on the pets while we were gone and when we got home, everyone was happy and healthy and our house was so clean too! Mallery was really amazing and we felt so at ease while we were on vacation knowing she was taking great care of our fur babies. We will definitely have Mallery watch our pets again in the future!!

Lillian was fantastic! She came over twice before booking, at my request, to get familiar with my 2 dogs. We had an unexpected illness in my dog and she was able to give him his medication while we were on vacation. We came home last night to 2 happy dogs, house in order, and pee pads washed!
