“We had such a wonderful experience with this family caring for our Dalmatian over the weekend! From the moment we dropped him off to the time we picked him up, we knew he was in great hands. They have a beautiful property with farm animals, and our dog loved every minute of running around in the spacious yard with their dogs. The family was so kind and accommodating with both pickup and drop off times. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pup was safe, happy, and well cared for. Highly recommend!”


“Ashleigh’s place is like our dog’s vacation place when we go away on vacation! Ashleigh sends regular updates and pictures, and we have such great peace of mind because we can see how much fun Mochi is having! Thank you for taking good care of Mochi!”



“Wow, Timothy went ABOVE and BEYOND!!! We received so many photo updates everyday. (And he got CUTE photos of my non-photogenic dog somehow haha!) He took them for a walk everyday, gave them lots of outside play time, gave us multiple updates a day, helped us load up their stuff in the car upon pickup….just greatly exceeded our expectations. HIGHLY recommend!”


“Love LOVE Leah! Where do I even begin? First of all, she took us in last minute. She’s super kind, communicative, & took absolute care of our boys! She listened to our concerns & followed our care instructions. I can tell our boys were comfy with her. One of my boys is almost 18 years old, completely blind, wears a diaper, & needs that round-the-clock care (think newborn baby). My other boy is 8 years old, has separation anxiety, and energetic. Both normally takes a hot minute to acclimate, but not with Leah. They ate/drank immediately with her & wanted snuggles and play time. Picked up our boys and both are happy and healthy! We will definitely be booking Leah again!”


“Suzanne and her family are so great with our two dogs. She sends me pictures of them playing and going on walks. She keeps me updated and is quick to respond. Suzanne is so sweet with them, highly recommend!”


“Raluca is he answer to my prayers. I have used her services several times for periods ranging from 4-9 days and every time my dog is happy to see me but sad to leave. She communicates and provides updates: photos thru the day. Great and consistent experience overall. I’ll continue to bring my dog to her in the future.”


“Kyra was great! She sent lots of pictures and Crow always looked relaxed and happy. She is patient and understanding with the dogs and did a great job with meds and feeding and keeping an extra eye out for symptoms. We will definitely book with her again!”


“Dan was great! Super nice guy, he sent us updates with photos throughout our trip. He has a nice big home with the perfect open yard. His dog was so sweet and friendly, our dog made friends with her immediately and was a great companion. We would definitely hire Dan again.”


“Ru was amazing with our dog Max. She sent us pictures and opened her home when we had a last minute need. Thank you so much. Without any hesitation we would use her again.”


“Chad and his kids (and Lucy, his doodle) took great care of our Poppy! He was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Poppy seemed very comfortable there and we will send her there again!”


“She was amazing, kept me updated with pictures and how he was doing my Jordan didn't want to leave he was all over Linda kinda like say bye but kept coming back , thank you so much Linda ♥️”


“Extremely happy. Buddy liked Samantha right away. Drop off and pick up were super easy. She sent me pics of my little guy so I could see that he was adjusting well. Definitely will book with her again.”



“Our dogs loved their stay at Leslie’s house. Her fenced yard and flexible schedule were a huge bonus to us when picking a pet sitter. We knew our dogs were in good hands which gave us great peace of mind!”


“We are very happy with the care our two boys received. They stayed for a week and we could tell they had a good time. We received updates and pictures through the stay. Terry even helped with our very picky eater who required more attention. We will be back the next time! Thank you so much ! ❤️”


“Caitlyn was very pleasant and treated our pup well. She made sure we were comfortable with the whole situation, even inviting us over to meet her and her family prior to the booking. She made sure that our pup was happy and exercised. There were no concerns or issues and we will use her again.”


“Tatyana and her family are so kind! Meeting her before was the best thing so my dog could get acclimated to her space and her dog. She sent so many pictures and gave ample updates. She’s so knowledgeable and kind and moving forward will be the only one watching my baby. He was so comfortable and felt right at home. You can tell Tatyana truly has a passion for dogs! You can travel comfortable knowing your pup is in good care!?”


“Sabrina was absolutely wonderful and a perfect fit for my dog! She provided updates through pictures and videos of my dog and made me feel comfortable with the fact that I was away from my pup. She also took her for walks throughout the day, which I know my dog Eleanor just loved.”
