“It was my first time leaving my dog Luna overnight with a sitter. Liza came out to my house before my travel and I could see immediately how comfortable and affectionate she is with dogs. She listened patiently while I went through Luna's routine and my house rules ... then she asked great questions. While on my 5 day trip, Liza sent pics/text reassuring me that Luna was fine. I could see that she was more than fine ... she was having a great time with Liza and her daughter (who I think she still misses!). Additionally, they were very respectful of my home, leaving it clean and tidy. Thank you so much!”

“Darcia went above and beyond my expectations. My dog has separation anxiety so she stayed with him 24-7 he felt comfortable with her right away. Darcia sent pictures and updated me every day. She took my very energetic husky on long walks each day and was very precise about following my instructions. I couldn’t be happier to have found her!”

“Alex stayed overnight with our 2 dogs. She was awesome, took great care of them, was communicative, and respectful of the space. We will absolutely book with her again, and cannot recommend her enough.”

“Alyssa was amazing with my pets. She went above and beyond what was asked. Mini (lab mix) is not a dog that warms up quickly to others and Alyssa didn’t give up on her. I do believe they are finally friends. I will be a repeat client and won’t hesitate to use Alyssa again.”

“Colleen is very professional and prompt. Having her stay with Mili while I was away was a huge relief for me. She also sent me updats and pictures daily so I knew how she was doing. I would recommend Colleen to anyone needing an attentive dog sitter!”

“My wife and I had a wedding to attend down in Florida, and most of the friends and family that would normally watch our dogs were unavailable. We reached out to Kristie on short notice to see if she was available to watch them while we were away. She responded promptly, and came by to meet our dogs (Bandit & Bailey) within a couple of days. I could immediately tell she knew what she was doing as she walked through our door and was able to deflect our crazy jumper (Bandit, high-energy 100lb black lab) effortlessly. After talking over our typical routine, and playing a bit of fetch outside, I felt confident that she would be a great fit. We booked her that day. Days later, we finally made our way down to Florida and our pups were in Kristie's hands. From the very first day, she did a great job following their typical routine, and gave them quite a bit of exercise playing fetch out in the back yard. She sent a bunch of photos, and it was clear to us that they were very happy doggos! It really put our minds at ease, and allowed us to enjoy our little wedding vacation. I will definitely be reaching out to Kristie to have her watch our dogs again. She did a great job, and as I mentioned earlier, our black lab Bandit can be handful, and she handled it without a problem. For anyone else reading this, look no further, Kristie is the best.”

Kaitlyn spent a weekend with our new (very high energy, demanding) puppy, our 3 year old dog and older guinea pig while we took our daughter to camp. She did a beautiful job. She was communicative, conscientious and responsible. When we returned the animals were in great shape and the house was impeccably clean. Thank you, Kaitlyn. We hope you'll sit for us again.
