“I don't know what magic Lee did, but our food loving, pig-disguised-as-a-dog pet stayed in her bed during dinner time instead of begging at the table like she usually does. Bubbles had a great time!”



“So grateful to have found Jeff and Beth! This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter and felt so at ease. They do a great job with updates and welcomed my dog into the family. When we got home, she seemed happy, relaxed and social. They are great communicators. It was super easy to facilitate meet and greet, and I knew from their thoughtful questions that they were responsible and conscientious dog sitters.”


“Chad is wonderful with my Benny. When I leave Benny in his care I know that Benny has a great time and is well looked after because he sends me picture/video updates. Benny is always wagging his tail when he sees Chad. I will continue to book Chad.”


“Alexandra is awesome! Our bear dog had a great time with her and was very well taken care of. We felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. Alex is a very good communicator and we had great updates throughout the trip.”


“Absolutely wonderful from start to finish! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I had a few specific instructions for my pup’s stay, and not only were they followed perfectly—they even offered helpful suggestions and kept me updated with pictures and videos the whole time. The level of care and attention my dog received was outstanding, and I could tell he felt right at home the moment we arrived. There’s a warm, calming energy in this home that you can feel immediately and clearly, my pup felt it too. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be booking again whenever I’m out of town. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to see you all again soon!”

“Hy & Arlo took fantastic care of my little buddy, Snacks, while we were on vacation for a week in another country. I felt confident and at ease with them watching him, and he seemed very happy when I picked him up! Snacks does not like other dogs, and they understood and were able to navigate this while out for walks without any issues. He also eats raw food and they were happy to make sure he got the correct amounts. We will definitely plan on using them again if we’re out of town in the future!”


“Inkoo was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our dog Pancho—sending us daily updates with multiple photos and thoughtful notes that really put our minds at ease while we were away. She communicated clearly and consistently, and it was clear from the pictures that Pancho was happy, well cared for, and having a great time—especially at the dog parks she took him to! Inkoo is warm, reliable, and incredibly detail-oriented. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely consider her again for any future pet sitting needs.”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care Koko received from Miki. She helped me to pickup my rescue dog from the shelter. The situation it’s very difficult for me when I am living out of state. It was very clear how kind, responsible, and genuinely loving she is with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while waiting for someone transport Koko back to AZ. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Highly highly recommend!”
