“My pup did not want to leave🥹! Katherine was very responsive and kept me updated with pics and videos of him every day. I can say, she treated louis like one of her own and i will definitely be rebooking!”


“It's hard to leave part of your family when you are away, but I am grateful that my high energy Aussie doodle had a great time with plenty of space to run in the fenced-in back yard and made new doggie friends. Luca will be back again soon and I don't have to worry because Michael and Perla communicated with plenty of pictures and video to help me see that my pup was adjusting, having a good time, and being well cared for. Thank you Michael and Perla that I can relax and know that Luca is just fine when we are away!”



“Michele is fantastic! My dogs were at her place for the Fourth of July and she took the best care of them and tailored their care to exactly what they need during the holiday weekend. She loves what she does and it absolutely shows. I would recommend her to anyone and look forward to using her for our future trips. Thank you Michele and family!”


“We love Olivia! She is great with our boys and kept in contact the entire time. We feel very comfortable leaving our boys with her, and they really seem to enjoy it too! So grateful we found her.”

“Joy had another successful 1-week slumber party with Laura and her family! I appreciate that she only has a small pack at any given time but there’s also variety of dogs to make new friends. Definitely planning to book again!”


“Chelsea was great! We did a meet n greet first about a week proud to our travel. Drop-off and pick up went smoothly and efficiently. She sent pictures every day and relayed concerns or scheduling changes promptly. We look forward to another worry free vacation!”


“Emanuel was incredible with our 2 dogs. We booked him very last minute when our other sitter bailed the night before a 3 week work trip for us. Our girls attached to him immediately and it made us feel so much better! He took a ton of pics and videos and sent them to us multiple times a day. Gave feeding updates and genuinely cared for our dogs.”


“Emily was wonderful! Lilly loved being with Emily and her husband for the week. Emily was very professional and kept me updated daily on how Lilly was doing. Every time she sent me videos or pictures, Lily was happy and running around. Definitely will be using Emily again for pet sitting services!”


“Johanny was so nice & welcomed me into her beautiful home. Was definitely a pleasure to meet her and to take good care of my little Coco. She sent me pictures & updates on how Coco was doing. I recommend her to anyone looking for a good dog sitter. I will be using her again when I need to.”


“David was amazing! If you’re a nervous cat mommy like me, don’t worry at all. My baby was so well taken care of, and David sent a ton of updates and pictures while I was away which all pet parents love lol. 10/10, and @David I will be seeing you soon!”


“Gwen and family took such good care of Spencer. I love how happy he seemed when I picked him up. It’s clearly a safe and fun place for him to be. Thank you so much!”


“Sharon took wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She sent me lots of pictures to let me know that my girl had adjusted well and was having fun with her and her family, definetly kept my mind at ease. Sharon gave her medication at the times that I had requested. She is reliable, responsible and caring! Thank you, Sharon”


“Kristie was fantastic! She watched a foster dog of mine that was still decompressing and a bit anxious, so I didn’t want her around other dogs. It is so hard to find dog sitters that don’t have another dog or watch multiple dogs at the same time. Kristie not only provide a safe and calm sanctuary for my foster, but she showered her with love, affection and lots of outdoor hikes. Knowing my foster was with Kristie allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation without worrying. I would use her again in a heartbeat!”
