“This was my first time booking with Vanessa, and it went great! We met beforehand so Maverick could get to know her and her home, which have me peace of mind. Maverick loved playing with Oreo and Moreno, and had access to the backyard all the time. Vanessa kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!”

“This was my first time ! Leaving my fur baby with someone can feel apprehensive. This family is great! They are so friendly. The love they have for dogs is obvious. Clean and beautiful home. The videos and pictures sent throughout my day lessened my apprehension. I will definitely request them again. Thank you !”
“Always a pleasure with Michael, very good communicator, great attention to detail, no issues with him giving medicine or walking our dog who is leash reactive and can be tough to walk. Thanks again, Michael!”

“Jonisha and her family always take such wonderful care of our Nene and Scrappy. We drop them off with complete peace of mind, knowing they’ll be well looked after—and maybe a little spoiled! They always come back happy, and we have no doubt they’ve been given the best care. Jonisha has become our go-to sitter, and we can’t imagine leaving our dogs with anyone else.”
“Woody's 1st time with Grace. He was a little shy at first because he's not used to being with other dogs. He eventually got used to it. He was there for 3-4 days. He was sad leaving her. All in all I think he had a great time with her.”
“Kristin was great with Echo and even helped her become friends with her other client Mia. Echo came home tired and happy and I was able to focus on my business trip without worrying about my baby. Thanks Kristin!”

Lisa worked to accommodate my schedule. She is very knowledgeable about dog behavior. You can tell that she has a genuine Love for animals. This was an overall awesome experience. Lisa allowed me the time to relax knowing that Stitchs’ needs were met in every way. I would definitely utilize Lisa in the future and will recommend her to others. Hands down top tier service.”

Dayan is amazing she took care of my dog like it was hers pet every day I texts and updates of how my babe (dog) was doing and my dog is a rescue dog and he’s now a senior dog she took great care with him to the point where I felt comfortable while on vacation. Dayan is a great person thank you for looking after my dog max.
Edith was amazing! Highly recommend her. Great communication and would send us daily photo updates. Which we appreciated so much! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone outside of family and we never once felt like he wasn't with family because of her responsiveness. She would also make sure he would get his daily walks in. I would definitely use Edith again.
If I could give 10 stars, I would!! Tesaira has been literally the biggest help and also the best of a friend to my son during this time!! He’s truly having a blast and has truly been happy with his time spent with her!! She’s literally the best! So communicative and very understanding! My favorite forever!
