“Debbie always takes amazing care of our dog! Cookie was super excited to go for another stay, she didn’t even look back when we dropped her off. We love the updates Debbie sends and know Cookie has a wonderful time with her and Jester.”



“Wendy was the best sitter we've used so far on Rover! She went out of her way to make sure our pup was taken care of. She was extremely responsive before, during, and after our stay and was willing to accommodate our requests. We received plenty of updates and pictures without even asking which really put us at ease. You could tell she truly cared about our pet.”


“Sonny loves her! She provides pictures and updates you while she has them! She even got him a little octopus toy and he carries it around constantly! 10/10 recommend her she’s such a sweetheart and truly loves animals”


“Eric and Yanqiu took wonderful care of Thor over the holidays. They sent us daily updates and lots of photos and videos showing how much fun Thor was having with his new friends. Their house is very clean and cozy and a warm environment for the dogs they take care of. We will definitely have them take care of Thor for our future travels!”


“Patti was wonderful with our 2 dogs! Her communication with us during our trip was so appreciated. She sent daily updates, photos and videos, which went a long way to ensure us that our pets were cared for with as much attention to detail as we would give ourselves. This made our trip so much more enjoyable and stress-free. I would most definitely recommend her for pet boarding. She’s absolutely wonderful!”



“Wow. I can not say enough about how awesome Sebastians stay was at Virginias. They kept us updated with random txt messages and pics. The experience was fantastic. We will definitely be using them again. Highly recommended. The take home letter that our dog wrote to us telling us about his great visit was a cute touch along with the collage of pics from his stay. Very cute. ..Thanks again so much. We will be at ease now whenever we go out of town knowing our boy is in good hands.”


“Kaitlyn and Andrew were wonderful. They sent us pics of Abby every day while we were on vacation. We could tell Abby was loved and enjoyed her time with them. She also got to make friends with their dog Pancake who kept Abby company while we were away. Recommend 100%”


“Took very good care of Ollie. Sent updates and pictures He had never been boarded before so this experience made me feel better about leaving him in good hands.”



“Marsha is the BEST! She has always gone above and beyond. My dog absolutely loves going to her house and I actually think he’s a little disappointed when I pick him up.”



“Karen was a great dog sitter! My dog and I felt very comfortable with her and I received daily updates. When I picked my dog up, we even received a final card and report of behavior/things she noticed. This was very helpful and I will certainly use Karen again!”


“Best of both worlds! Doggie Friends & People to be with. All the local sitters were busy so I looked near where we were vacationing ~ 900 miles away and found Megan. She set up a Google "Meet" and greet. Where she explained her setup & approach. She has two dogs and looks for 2 dogs that match well with hers. She was already boarding a young dog & was looking for an smaller older dog so she was excited to get my request. So I was fortunate not only for Desmond to play outside in a fenced in yard but it was also a great chance for him to be "one of the gang." And then when he needed a break to know that there are people near to sit by. I would recommend if you find Megan has an opening to take the opportunity and board your dog with her!”



“Once again, a phenomenal stay. We love having Finn stay with Randy and Mimi and once again, are booking another stay already! He has so much fun with them and they are great about keeping our active Aussie entertained!”


“Kelly was great! She took good care of my frenchie. She provided daily updates and pictures of my dog during his stay. I am very satisfied with the service provided. Thanks you, Kelly!”


“Suilen was amazing! I needed a sitter to pick up my dog and take him for a couple nights after he walked down the aisle at my wedding ceremony. Suilen was right on time and made sure he had everything he needed. She sent so many cute photos and Yami looks like he had the best time with her. If you need a dog sitter who is trustworthy, and will be super sweet and attentive with your dog, I highly recommend Suilen.”


“Offered time for my pups to explore and reviewed special instructions for my senior dogs with me before I left. Loved the daily updates and photos!! Appreciate you taking care of my girls, Katya!”


“Sweet couple with big hearts for animals . Very welcoming and friendly Tara knows dogs and loves them. She was available at a time I really needed someone felt like family 🥰❤️ TY again!! 🥹🙂”


“Fidget had a great time at Ligia's and came home exhausted and well cared for. I always knew that she is in good hands when she stays with Ligia.”


“Nicole was incredibly helpful to us in a very trying time for our family. She was very patient and extremely communicative. I recommend her for any of your dog sitting needs.”


“Angie took EXCELLENT care of our pups! The dogs had such a great time; I dont think they wanted to leave! She has a perfect yard that is well fenced- tons of room to run around and play all day! Angela also is superb when it comes to responsiveness and sending updates through pictures and videos, we always knew how they were doing throughout the day. I highly recomend Angela and we will definitely be using her from now on!!”


“Shannon was wonderful for our first time dog boarding experience. We received updates and multiple pictures every day! Very prompt and courteous and our Sayla loved it! Highly recommend!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
