Of I could give Steven 100 stars I would. He did a fantastic job with my dog. I asked him could we meet before he watched her and he was now than willing. I asked because my dog doesn't care for men nor does she like other pets. When I introduced them she was snappy at first but warmed up to Steven. But Steven brought his dog out and I could not control her. She went right into attack mode and all I could think is, this is not going to work. Well me and Steven had a conversation on several ways to handle this. And ended up not utilizing any we talked about. He had her social with other dogs by the end of the day and they played together and say together. He sent me pictures and videos of the interactions and made me feel comfortable. When I picked her up he had everything ready for her to leave with and she was a happy dog. From this interaction I'm going to use Steven every time I need a sitter. I'm sticking with what worked and this worked for me. Thank you Steven you did a great job.

Robin took such great care of Lettie. She was responsive, asked great questions, sent lots of pictures (which was awesome cuz I was really missing my dog!). I look forwarding to having Lettie stay with her again.

Queeny provided a safe and welcoming home away from home for our two dogs. She sent us photos or videos every day to show that the dogs were healthy and happy, and we could tell that the dogs were stress-free when we came to collect them. We like the fact that there was an enclosed yard for them to run in, and that they were the only dogs in the home. We will definitely use Queeny again!

My dog came back home healthy and tired. She really tries to communicate before and after the stay. She really does have a large dog for them to play around in. No complaints here. I just feel bad my crazy pup was not showing his teachings/ manners right now. He is in teenager mode and she was patient with him.

Yvette is knowledgeable and experienced with dogs and takes every precaution to make sure that dogs and their pet parents are comfortable. She gave me regular updates of how my dog was doing and was flexible on drop off and pick up times. I already have the next visit booked!

Sogol was a kind and loving caregiver to my dog. She sent numerous pictures and updates while we were away and even went the extra mile of purchasing a doggy gate to install at her door to alleviate our concerns of our dog running outside. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She goes above and beyond for your dog

Queeny always takes such great care of Kaju! We went away on a two-week trip and I don’t think Kaju wanted to leave Queeny’s - even running back to her for one last goodbye! She sends photos and status updates on any new friends he has made during his stay. I know I can trust her to take great care of Kaju and I will always recommend her!! Your pup will be in great hands 😊

If you have a furry companion and worry about finding someone who will care for them as much as you do, you can put those concerns to rest. I recognized that Emily was an excellent choice from the moment my dog first met her. It was as if she had a natural connection with him. He was instantly drawn to her, and she made him feel completely at ease. Thanks to her, I was able to enjoy my vacation without a single worry about Mason. I highly recommend Emily and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Emily, thank you for caring for Mason as if he were your own.

Whitney is the absolute best dog sitter. She watches my baby like she would her own, and my pup gets along so well will her doggo :) She has amazing communication, sends videos, let’s me play voice notes for my pup and makes she I know she’s not just alive and well, but happy and better than ever. We call Whitney’s house “Summer Camp” for Winnie and she’s so excited to go every time!

Kadi was amazing! Kadi took care of our dog Axel for a full week, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She is incredibly caring, professional, and genuinely loves what she does. She made Axel feel completely at home and ensured he was well cared for every day, including regular walks and lots of attention. What gave us the most peace of mind was how communicative she was—she sent daily updates and photos, which meant so much to us while we were away. It was clear Axel was happy, relaxed, and in great hands. Kadi is kind, sweet, and truly dedicated. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter.

Leaving our pups with Rachel was amazing. She has the same approach to dog life as we do. Lots of updates and pictures. Playing, couch cuddles, and settling down for the evening (they slept on her bed with her, their preference at home as well). We have already booked another stay with her and look forward to more. There is absolutely no doubt they're in great hands.
