“My older lab had a great time with Burgandy! I really appreciated the great communication, photo updates, and schedule flexibility! Looks forward to using Burgandy again!”
“Great sitter! Sent pictures how my Harley was doing. Great picture! Harley was very happy with Kim. Kim was very kind and patient with Hailey. I felt Harley was very safe with Kim and she spoiled him like he was one of her own. Excellent 👌.”
“Stacey was the BEST. Like any dog parents, we were nervous leaving our dogs in a new home. However, that changed quickly. Even with our dogs high energy and demands, they stayed safe, comfortable, and loved. We will be able to enjoy our family vacations so much more now that we know our dogs are safe and cared for while away!!”
“It was my first time having Kathy take care of my pup while we went out of town. While he was excited to see me when I picked him up, he continued to follow Kathy around - a good sign he was well cared for! She sent pictures and gave me updates on how things were going during his stay and I appreciated that. I would definitely have her watch Domino again.”
“Susan was great! very communicative and flexible. We came from out of town for a wedding and just needed someone for the night and it worked out great. Calvin, my dog, is a very dog friendly dog and got along with her dog finn very well who seems mild tempered. Susan sent me pictures and reassured me that Calvin was enjoying himself. If we’re ever back in the area I will definitely be using Susan again.”
“Erin is a conscientious and loving sitter. She sent pictures and messaged me back right away. I believe Molly was very well taken care of by Erin. I will certainly have her watch Molly again.”
“Kayti is awesome! She took great care of my puppy for 11 days. When he wasn’t feeling well she let me know immediately and reached out to my vets office for medication. She is responsible and obviously loves animals. Tucker was in great hands and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kayti again in the future. Highly recommended!!!”
“Vicky was pawsome! She was very accommodating on drop off and pick up times. She sent us a picture of Sherlock resting on a couch in the evening after we dropped him off. Sherlock must have played a lot, as he fell asleep in my son's lap 2 minutes after we picked him up!”
“Kaleigh was great with my dogs! She took great care of them while we were out of town. Sent me several pictures too which eased my mind about having a new sitter. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thanks Kaleigh for everything you did for the girls!”
“Michelle was wonderful! She kept us updated on how the dogs were doing and sent us pics! We didn’t have to worry at all and were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our girls were in Michelle’s loving care. We will definitely be using her again!”
“When we arrived at Shannon’s home, Archie ran to the door. He was so excited to stay for the second time. I felt the same way. During our absence, we received pictures several times. Shannon communicates well. Her smile is consistent with her loving care and flexibility to accommodate our schedule. I am so glad I got to know her and grateful for her care of our beloved dog. Without her, needing to leave Archie would result in much worry. With him in her care I know he is safe and having a wonderful time”
“Marv had a great time staying with Jessica and her fellow beagle, Barry. We had just adopted Marv and we were nervous leaving him for so long but he did great and seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We will leave Marv with Jessica and Barry again!”
“Jennifer (and her family) were absolutely amazing with our pup. I whole heartedly would recommend her to anyone. I received many pictures and updates on how he was doing during his stay. He came home loved and happy. Jennifer goes beyond what is expected and I truly believed loved him as his own. Great!! Great!! Great!!!”
“Megan and her family are AMAZING! She makes your dog feel right at home! She kept my puppy, Delta, for about 10 days while I was visiting family! Megan did basic training with her, helped her learn her role in her pack, & took her on walks! I got photo updates almost daily and was always in touch with Megan about Delta’s stay! If you are ever worried about leaving your dog when you’re away your solution is right here! Megan will put all your worries at ease when it comes to your dog! My baby now has a second home now just a dog sitter.”
“Finn had the best time with Melissa and her family! It was his first time being boarded. I was worried he would have issues settling in. Boy was I wrong! Finn made himself right at home! Melissa kept me updated with pictures and messages everyday! I won’t leave him with anyone else now! So grateful I found Melissa and she was able to get Finn in. I was at ease knowing he was being well taken care of and most of all loved! Finn also looked and smelled great when I picked him up. I will absolutely be a repeat customer! Thank you SO much, Melissa! ♥️”
