“We loved getting pictures and videos of our dog while we were away. We could see him getting more and more comfortable and happy with his pet-sitters every day. We would definitely book again with Victoria and Rishi.”
“Sara and John were a great fit for my two high energy dogs. Their entire family loved having the dogs around and spent alot of time out doors or snuggled up. They were very communicative throught the entire stay as well and I received loads of pictures of my happy girls.”
“She was amazing even though the cat was horrible. I didnt realize he would lose his mind the way he did. Just seems like if he isnt home, hes an entirely different cat. So sorry for the inconvenience. But she really tried to be there for him, even with him acting like a demon.”
“A dog is family, so finding a caregiver for an extended stay can be challenging. We found Paige to be ideal for Buster, a 12 year old Maltese mix. Paige's home environment is very similar to ours so Buster was comfortable in his stay. Paige communicated with updates and pictures which was nice and comforting for us. I would highly recommend Paige.”
“Sydney and Luna had an excellent stay! They were very spoiled with lots of love and attention. We received pictures of their fun twice a day! We highly recommend Jason and Kristen!”
“Kasey sent wonderful videos and was in contact regularly. My baby girl was happy and I can't ask for more. I will be back and I highly recommend her for taking care of your fur baby.”
“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”
“Boji had yet another great time. He's super happy and ready to sleep the night away! Definitely book with him! They are the best out there and the most flexible!!”
“I appreciated Cari’s adaptability and the time she took to get to know my babies prior to their stay. Cari asked a lot of questions regarding how they liked/needed to be cared for, which I was truly grateful for, especially as my pups don’t leave home much. Cari sent me lots of pictures throughout their stay and provided regular updates as to Charlotte and Oliver’s well-being - this was great not only for me but for my (human) young kids who missed their brother and sister!”
“Ramaris is an amazing pet sitter. She sent pictures and communication of how our fur baby was doing. He looked happy, safe and loved. When we returned he was so happy and content. He also was sent home with treats and a toy! Wow! We are so pleased to have had Ramaris as a sitter. She is top notch hands down. Rocky will be back for more visits!”
“Haley did a great job watching our Lexi. She provided multiple pictures and videos daily and updated us on how well she was doing. Will definitely be booking again in the near future!”
“This was Mia and Eddie's first time staying with Paul and they had a great time. We visited them once before the actual stay so the day of the actual stay Mia was so excited that she broke free from her leash and was at their door barking to be let in before we even knew what was happening. I appreciated getting pictures of them both getting lots of snuggle time. I have to say that I have a whole new opinion of my traitorous dogs though to see them book-ending someone else the way they do with me. I thought I was the favorite! They both came home wiped out from all the fun that they had with Paul's dogs and running around in their huge backyard. We are so glad to now have somewhere we feel completely comfortable having our dogs stay when we leave town.”
“Chris took great care of my dog, Freya, for a weekend. He was attentive to her needs and kept me updated with lots of photos throughout the stay. Would definitely recommend!”
“Lashiya responded quickly and was great to communicate with. And I knew when I met her my dog would be in great hands! Thank you again for taking such great care of my big baby.”
“Thalia was AMAZING! She took such great care of our pup. Thalia was easy to communicate with, very thoughtful on the needs of our dog, and even spoiled our sweet pup with a gift and treats. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Madison was amazing, my Little dog Benny just loved her. She took him for lots of walks which he loves. I feel she took excellent care of my dog. She sent me pictures everyday and made me feel so comfortable I could enjoy my vacation and not worry about Benny.”
“Makayla was awesome. She was upfront about everything and communicated very well. I received multiple pictures and videos every day while she watched my dog. Highly recommend!”

Madison was great with Penny! She provided pictures and updates while we were away so we knew Penny was adjusting well. We needed someone to watch Penny on short notice and Madison responded and was available right away. We would definitely have Madison watch our Penny again.
We are grateful for Erin responding to our last minute request! Erin was very responsive and attentive to our fur babies and feathered friend. She was very respectful of our home and left everything tidy. We could trust that she took good care of our pets. Thank you Erin!
Alsacia took care of our cat Monty and dog Bear while we were out of the country and we couldn't be happier with the job she did. Both are a handful to take care of and she was more than up to the task. She was communicative, reassuring, professional, flexible, and a delight overall. We will be rebooking with her in the future!
Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.
Tiana is a great sitter! She sends the perfect amount of pictures and updates. She so easy to talk to and so understanding. I never questioned her or worried about my dog while I was gone. She’s got plenty of experience and it shows! Will be rebooking again and you should too!
