“Christine was so sweet, responsive and reliable! Our dog warmed up to her quickly and we came home from a weekend away to a happy pup! We will definitely book her again and would highly recommend her!”
2. Maria L.
“Maria is fantastic. Very responsive and took wonderful care of our fur babies like they were her own. Everything went smoothly and the dogs loved having someone who would play rope and fetch with them (in addition to loving on them).”
3. DeHaven S.
“Dehaven and Ashlee took great care of our dog and our home while we were gone! They were very understanding of our dogs needs and did a great job while we were gone. They were great communicators and kept us up to date on how things were going which was very helpful. We cannot thank them enough!”

“Shealawna was absolutely responsible in every way I know she comes from a family very familiar with dogs and her mother is a retired dog trainer and also owned a grooming business so she is very experienced in all aspects of dog care we recommend her highly”
5. Sheena B.
“Sheena is so thoughtful and meticulous - I am so grateful that we booked her to watch our two senior dogs during an important trip because I didn't worry for even a minute that they weren't getting the care they needed. Thank you so much Sheena! I would heartily recommend her to anyone wanting excellent care for their pets.”
6. Zoe B.
“Zoe was great. She sent pictures everyday, gave our boys lots of TLC and was gracious enough to unbox our food delivery. We were most concerned for our older dog, as he tends to not eat when we're away, but Zoe was patient and loving making him feel secure enough to eat. Will definitely reach out again for future weekends away.”
7. John H.
“John was great! Our babies were happy and taken care of. Even our shy one was good with him which is a first for us. I think that says a lot. I would highly recommend!”
8. Robert B.
“Tayelor and Robert were awesome. They watched our Frenchie and Malti-poo for almost two weeks when we went on vacation. Both of our dogs can be a little high maintenance at time and have very different needs and interests and Tayelor and Robert took great care of them. Would definitely hire them again.”
9. Michael L.
“Michael was Amazing with my pup!! He cared for her like she belonged to him. It’s evident that he really loves animals and is a very kind young man! Michael stayed with my dog on several occasions… took her for walks… played with her and sent us pictures on multiple occasions to keep us updated while we were away. I will definitely call Michael to care for my lil dog anytime I have to go out of town!!”
10. Angie S.
“Angie house sit for my 14 week old puppy while I was at the conference for 4 days. I was very impressed by how much she was attentive to my puppy, letting me know how he was doing on a regular basis, and even training him a few commands. I came home, finding much better-behaving dog, and her notes about what she observed about my dog and suggestions. My puppy and I definitely look forward to seeing her again!”
11. Jennifer E.
About: I have been around animals and had my own dogs ever since I was born. I love animals and I would treat each and everyone as if it were my own 2 fur babies. As a teenager I used to work with a Persian cat breeder feeding and cleaning cats. I have a job that gives flexibility and different hours and days off all throughout the week and most weekends I am off. I love spending time with my dogs who are both starting in their senior years so I feel like having other dogs around will help them remember their youthful days. I have a fenced in yard, 2 dogs that are friendly at home a gated area in the house for pets. I can support most people’s needs or wants for their pets
12. Harrison K.
“The best experience I have had with a dog sitter. Harrison went above and beyond our expectations and did so much for our pup. Sent us updates every day with pictures and videos of the dogs playing at the dog park, going to the beach, and more, all which he asked for permission to take our dog to of course! I think my dog was probably a bit disappointed to leave him as I honestly think he might have had a better vacation than us! I will 100% never use another sitter to watch my pup ever again as I don’t think it could get any better than Harrison.”
13. Jaime B.
“Jaime has watched my dads cat and my moms dog. They are not as tech savvy so I am writing this review for both of them. She takes the time to make sure they are properly fed and cared for. She takes the time to spend time with them while she is there. All animals tend to gravitate to Jaime. It’s safe to say she’s the animal whisperer. I have complete trust and faith in her abilities to keep the fur babies safe and happy. Her love for animals is very commendable.”
14. Laura B.
About: I grew up with lots of animals and have plenty of experience. I have experience with senior animals. I have some experience in dog training as I trained my Labrador Retriever as a puppy in doggie obedience school. My Lab is now currently a senior doggie. We breed and raise pedigreed Mini Rex, and pedigreed Netherland Dwarf bunnies for showing and pets. My husband also has experience working with a vet some years ago, as well as experience in dog breeding. I'm currently a stay at home mom who homeschools a preteen and teenager. I'll be able to look after your pet during the day and he or she will not have to stay crated all alone at home. Our Labrador Retriever is a house dog and likes to play. So your dog will have a play mate if your pet stays with me in my house. Can provide frequent potty breaks for your pets. Can make special accommodations for boarding pets that don't prefer other dogs as long as they aren't dangerous. Our dogs stay on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. We do have some caged pets but they will be in a separate part of the house during boarding 🙂
15. Virginia J.
“Ginny did a great job!!! My dogs were well loved and had excellent care. Ginny administered medicine for my pet's while she took care of them. She spent two full days with them. She even emptied my dishwasher. Ginny truly loves animals and my pets were so happy to see her. She played with them in the yard. Ginny sent me a text each day to let me know how they were doing. We were very satisfied with Ginny. She will be the first person we call when we need a sitter again.”
16. Julia B.
“Julia is amazing!! She spent a week at my apartment with my 9 year old dog Rory and it went really well! Julia sent daily pictures/videos and kept me updated on how things were going. I came home to a clean apartment and a very happy dog! She even kept my plant alive. If you’re looking for a pet sitter I strongly recommend Julia =)”

18. Skylar E.
“Skylar was great at communicating and responding quickly when booking for a sitter for our fur babies. She came to meet the girls first and both of my cats loved her from the beginning. She kept us to up the date with the girls and would send pictures all the time, which I loved. Would definitely recommend Skylar!”
19. Ashley R.
About: I have 3 dogs of my own, varied ages, and even a pig! But I have been around animals as long as I can remember. My partner won’t let me get any more animals, so I would love to care for all of yours instead! I am a teacher and looking for summer, and break, work. I am practically available all day! I would be a fool to not do something that I love to occupy my days. I have a very energetic 1 year old, fully vaccinated, puppy that would love to run around with your fur babies. She has a bigger brother and sister, so size is not a problem for her. I also have 2 cats of my own so have experience with both.
20. Kelsey L.
About: Hello! My name is Kelsey. All of my life I have felt at home with animals (of ALL kinds). My dream is to one day run my own dog rescue. Until then, I've chose to submerge myself in doing what I love most. And that's being with animals. I have 4 cats and 3 dogs (along with my husband and son) at my home. They are so very spoiled and loved. I would absolutely love to be your pet sitter and more importantly...your pets friend when missing their human. I have several years of dog training experience, although I am NOT certified yet. (Worked with dogs at a boarding and training facility and also in a few dog boarding and daycare facilities.), so I have a decent amount of knowledge when it comes to helping with training and dogs with small temperament issues. I also have experience with senior dogs. I also have experience with reptiles, fish, rodents, AND farm animals. So please don't hesitate to ask about that! (Also, PLANTS!) I will stay overnight, as needed, as long as I'm available and my families schedules allow it. I am currently in school for my Bachelor's degree and my son is in 3rd grade. I have plenty of time when I am not studying. My schooling is mainly online so I'm flexible when it comes to when and where I study and do my school work, so I can always bring it with me if needed. My son has football practice and games throughout the week, but I can always schedule accordingly to make sure it works and his father is home from work. I will always try to make it work and be accommodating. I care for all of my clients pets as if they were my own. Plenty of attention, love, affection, and respect. Many people forget that pets need respect like the rest of us, and I always make it a point to respect my clients pets boundaries and certain routines that they are use to.
