“Michelle is a LIFE SAVER! After Elmhurst Animal Hospital wrongfully canceled my boarding reservations at the last minute, I scrambled to find someone to watch my 3 small dogs. I found Michelle and she was quick to respond and accept my fur babies for the stay! Michelle and her 2 little girls took AMAZING care of them, sending update reports and pics too. This gave me peace of mind that they were being well cared for! Michelle was also very accommodating when I needed to drop them off early than originally scheduled. I will definitely be utilizing Michelle's services again in the future!”
“Michelle and Otavio are very warm and welcoming care providers. They instantly put my precious pup and me at ease by inviting us into their home and demonstrating their natural pet charming talents. They also regularly shared photos and sent playful vacation stories written from my dog’s perspective. I would certainly request their service again.”
“Karin was awesome!! She watched our pup Luna while we were on vacation for a week. She sent multiple updates and photos which we always appreciate. She even went above and beyond and administered the last of some meds she needed to take. We’ll definitely be contacting her again in the future!”
“Mary and her husband were very welcoming to my little guy Tazer. I felt totally comfortable with them and knew they would treat him well and they did. I only felt bad because Tazer was at her home for overnight boarding and he was having a restless night so no one got a good nights sleep. Despite this there were no complaints from Mary. I definitely recommend Mary as a sitter!”

Mary was amazing with our dog, Kobe! This was our first time leaving him with someone who wasn’t family, and she immediately put us at ease. She sent multiple updates, pictures, and videos each day, and it was clear he was happy and well cared for. We’d absolutely book with her again!
Matthew was a great fit for Odie with his active outdoor lifestyle. He did very well managing his personality and providing fun exercise. We were getting updates about Odie doing great, which gave us a peace of mind. He came home happy and relaxed. What more can you ask for. We’ll definitely book again with Matthew if he is available.
