Winter had the best time with Jonathan and his pups! Jonathan sent a lot of videos and pictures so I couldn’t miss her too much. Will definitely book again!

About: I grew up with great danes and cats! I am happy to make their stay comfortable and safe while at my place or to allow them to stay right where they are come to them! I love to go on walks and runs, so I will make sure they get the exercise they need. Know that your pets will be taken care of and given lots of attention until you return! Happy to answer any questions! I have a bit of flexibility both during the week and on the weekends! Let me know what you need so I can best accommodate! I currently do not have any animals of my own, so I would love to help care for yours! I grew up with large dogs, so I can comfortable with all sizes!

Raye is the best! She was very responsive and kept me frequently updated. She took Hugo everywhere, the park, drive in cinema, on a hike. I think now I’ll have to level up my play game. Also, she was pretty flexible, my flight was canceled and that was very helpful.

Pretzel had a great time! She got lots of attention and playtime and came home and immediately went to sleep because she was so exhausted from all her fun.

Matt is phenomenal and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the moment we dropped our dog off, it was clear how thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely caring he is. His home is welcoming and clearly set up with dogs in mind, and we felt completely at ease leaving our dog there overnight. We received great updates, and it was obvious our dog was comfortable, well cared for, and having a great time. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had been treated like one of the family. It’s such a relief to have a sitter we trust completely - this is exactly what you hope to find. We will absolutely be booking again and can’t recommend Matt highly enough!

From start to finish, Michaela did a wonderful job watching our little dog Coco! She always responded in a timely manner and kept in touch with us, sending pictures and updates daily. We’re so grateful that Coco was loved and taken well care during our trip abroad. We would highly recommend Michaela if you should need a loving and caring pet sitter!!🥰🐾

Stacey is so great with my Puppy Poppy! We are still crate, potty and puppy manner training and she was able to keep up with training while we were away. I loved getting updates and pictures throughout the weekend and even was able to keep her an extra night because we were stuck in traffic and wouldn’t get back until later than expected. Poppy had a wonderful time and says she can’t wait until her next stay with her new friends!

Hilary was an excellent choice for our dog while we were out of town. She sent multiple pictures showing his walks and good times that made us smile and remove any fears we had about using this service for the first time. We will definitely ask her to watch our dog any time she is available when we need it. ?

I had a great experience with this sitter and would absolutely book again. They were reliable, professional, and clearly cared about my dog’s comfort and well-being. Communication was consistent throughout, and I appreciated the updates and attention to detail. My dog came back happy, well cared for, and in great condition, which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but they made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dependable and attentive sitter.

I was able to enjoy a glorious long weekend because I knew my two dogs were happy and spoiled with Emily. Both my dogs (age 7 & 6) had NEVER been boarded or kenneled before, so I was nervous that they'd be anxious and upset, but they came home absolutely happy and contented after staying with her. She was kind enough to provide twice-daily feedback about their walks, sleep schedule, and general wellbeing, and that helped me relax and enjoy myself. My dogs sleep on the bed at home, and I chose Emily because she was going to be with them at night and because she has so many repeat customers; that tells me all I need to know! Emily is worth her weight in gold. Luka and Teddy had a safe and happy get-away of their own. Thanks so much, Emily!

Alexandria was wonderful with Sully! It is hard for me to leave him but as soon as we met I knew he’d be very well taken care of - for three whole weeks! She was very communicative and patient with him. Highly recommend!
