“Briana and her family were great with Louie! I got tons of updates and photos! I could tell he really loved it with them. Can’t wait to let them watch my fur baby again!”


“Michael was very accommodating with our schedule. Communication was awesome from the first point of contact, drop off, during stay and upon pick up. Michael provided numerous updates on Sophie with videos and pictures. Sophie is a mature lab and required special attention with feeding and daily medicine which Michael handled well. We definitely felt that she was well taken care of and was a happy camper during her stay. We would recommend Michael and plan to have Sophie stay with him again.”


“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”


“Wendy was amazing! Franco had such a great time. Wendy’s house is like a resort for pups! She keeps you in the loop with updates, pictures and videos. 100/100 would DEFINITELY recommend!!!”


“Amanda and her kids were very attentive to my dogs needs and took really great care of them. Amanda always responded when I messaged her about the dogs and sent me pics of their stay. I know my dogs can be alot to handle and I truly commend Amanda for taking care of my two dogs ontop of taking care of her 3 children! I was very pleased with how everything went. One of her children even sent my dogs home with a toy that was handmade for him! I highly recommend Amanda to sit your dogs they will be well taken care of!”


“Heather was great! She watched my two kitties long term, they can be a handful and she was great with them! She also accommodated my specific needs and took them last minute! Will definitely use again if needed!”



“My husband and I have nothing but amazing things to say about Anthony and Leslie. Our dogs stayed with them while we took our first vacation without them in a long time due to our larger dog’s disability. They were so kind and went above and beyond to ensure our dogs got lots of love and playtime. They communicated extremely well with us and sent us tons of photos throughout the day. Our dogs were clearly happy when we picked them up. We would not hesitate to have them watch our dogs again- we feel so lucky we found them. We 100% recommend them to anyone looking for dog sitters.”


“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”


“Jeremy watched our Bear dog for a couple nights and took great care of him. They played, took walks and he even kept Bear happy and busy during a rainy day. Jeremy sent us pictures and videos and was great with communication. He seemed to genuinely care for our pup and our pup was happy hanging out with him. We would definitely book Jeremy again!!”


“The perfect place to board if you have an active and energetic dog!! They sent daily updates of our two doggies LOVING their fenced in yard — perfect for a borzoi and dalmatian who love love love to run. Plus, they were super flexible about drop off and pick up times. We’re so happy that our dogs were able to enjoy a vacation of their own while we were on vacation!”


“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”


“Lindsey was great! She sent me pictures of my pup and messages while I was gone. My pup had a blast playing with her dogs and she came home with all the parts she went there with. Lindsey really treated her like one of her own. I’ll use her again in a heartbeat.”


“My Great Dane loved his experience with Lydia and her family. He got plenty of exercise and was beyond spoiled. I received plenty of pictures and videos of my pup! I will be using Lydia every time I travel. If I could rate 10 stars, I would”



“James did a fantastic job taking care of my dog for a week, soon after I moved to Fort Myers. His house and yard are very clean and spacious, and he has a friendly dog (Myles) who was great company. James, himself, is clearly a devoted dog person himself, and is also clearly motivated to do a great job as a dog-sitter. It was obvious, throughout my dog's stay, that James cared about her and keeping her feeling comfortable. As for my level of comfort, he texted me regularly while I was away, often including photos of my dog. And he responded immediately when I texted or called for information. Finally, I could tell that my dog was very comfortable at James' and Myles' house, from the meet-and-greet to the pick-up. I can't recommend James highly enough.”


“Nasiya is a lovely person and an avid dog lover! My young, active dog was with her nearly 3 weeks and I never had a moment of concern. I even felt a little guilty taking my Callie home because she was so happy with Nasiya and her dog Coco. Nasiya sent us lots of updates and I will not hesitate to contact her the next time we need a dog sitter!”


“Everything went fine I think. I didn't know when I booked her that she had small children, it worried me because Buttercup is a large rambunctious pup (st betnard), but when I asked her when I dropped them off Ashlee said it was fine. Dr Pepper hid under a bed the whole time, which didn't surprise me, he's a shy cat. However when I got him home he's been extremely loving (which is not normal for him) so I'm pleased.”


“Sasha did an amazing job watching my dog, Nyx! Not only was Nyx well cared for, but she also came back nicely brushed and looking great. Sasha’s animals got along perfectly with Nyx, and it was clear they had a blast playing together. I really appreciated the attention and care Sasha gave—Nyx came home happy, tired, and clearly loved. Highly recommend Sasha for anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
