Joshua did a wonderful job with our cat, Piper, while we traveled during the holidays. He is so thrust worthy that we were not worried about Piper at all, because from the pictures and videos that Joshua shared with us regularly we could tell that Piper is very happy with him, his kids, and his cat, Spikes. Joshua is very caring, understanding, responsive. He always responds to your messages and questions promptly. We appreciate the care, attention, and support that Joshua provided us so much and we recommend him to the people who will look for boarding their cat. 🐈

Katie did an outstanding job taking care of our 4-legged children while we were away on vacation. She is very thorough and sent us pictures and videos everyday which was a nice touch. Our black pug, Merry, became best friends with Katie’s mom. We plan to use Katie for future pet sitting needs. Would highly recommend!

My dog Teton loved staying at esi’s house. She would send me updates everyday and he looked so happy. He felt very welcomed as soon as I dropped him off! They have a backyard too which was amazing because he loves to run! I 100% recommend you book with Esi she is the best!

CC took amazing care of our dog, Sadie, while we went out of town for a week! She went above and beyond in every way possible and kept us updated with how she was doing each day by sending pics and videos. Her dog Gino is very friendly and Sadie had a great time playing with him and running around in the fenced back yard. We felt extremely comfortable leaving Sadie in such responsible hands. Sadie had her own little fun vacation with CC while we were gone. We highly recommend her for boarding your dog while away!

I was very nervous about using Rover as this was my first time leaving Onyx with people she wasn’t familiar with but my sweet pup Onyx was very well taken care of! We received photos and updates from the moment she was dropped off! I can tell that although she missed us, she felt safe. I loved that she was allowed to sleep in the bed and lay on the couch which are things she loves to do at home. We will definitely be booking Meagan for boarding in the future!

Second only to being home. My fur baby was having the best time. His stay looked like a doggy version of the little rascals! I was nervous at first this was the first time using a pet sitter but Naila was very informative and caring. I will definitely use her again! I really cannot say enough this was a great experience. I can now say that my baby has been around dogs of every size and breed and did very well.

Steph is absolutely AMAZING! First off it was short notice maybe 4 hours before I had to leave and everyone kept turning me down until this wonderful woman was kind enough to take her in . My baby had a blast with her and Jax. She sent me pictures and you could see the happiness in my baby’s eyes . Anytime I go out of town Valkyrie will be hanging out with her new bestfriend Jax . Definitely 10 out 10

Tiffani was very responsive, we met, and I could tell she was interested in learning about Ziggy and making sure he had a good stay. Throughout his visit she sent multiple videos and messages to let me know how he was doing. I really appreciated that and I will definitely be using her again in the future.
