“Angelina took such good care of my Humphrey. I will be using her very special service again. I received so many pictures and videos of Humphrey on walks and relaxing on the couch. It did my heart good to see him comfortable and safe. I will always be grateful for the care and love he received.”

“Carla was great. Fin was good company with her dog, and Carla sent me periodic photos of Fin being comfortable and well cared for. Fin is just under 16, and is very old and slow at this point. Carla even carried Fin up stairs at nights so that he could sleep in their bedroom with their dog, rather than alone by himself downstairs. Carla also gave fin his morning meds with his food. Thank you, Carla!”

“Natalia took care of our dog for the first time and was wonderful. She provided updates and lots of pictures. I could tell that our dog was comfortable and happy, and he was well taken care of with plenty of attention and nice walks. I would highly recommend Natalia! She's awesome!”

“Karin was wonderful with our dog, Cooper. She took him on several walks per day, played fetch with him and treated him like he was her own dog. Karin updated us daily with pictures and texts. Karin is very easy to work with and allowed Cooper to have the run of her house. He was very comfortable with Karin and so were we and we would highly recommend Karin to others. We will be using Karin as a dog sitter in the near future.”

“We had another wonderful experience with Kelly. Charlie stayed with her and her pups for the weekend-and it just happened to be Charlies 3rd Birthday. She went above and beyond celebrating him with homemade dog-friendly cupcakes, which was so thoughtful and adorable. It gave us such peace of mind that he was not only looked after but truly cared for. Once again he came home happy, healthy and relaxed. We are very grateful for the extra effort Kelly put in to make his Birthday special!! Highly recommend her to anyone.”

Coordinating drop off and pick up was super smooth. She sent very frequent updates with amazing commentary. We definitely look forward to working with Alex again.”

They had my dogs for three days, they send photos and updates and all went as planned. I would have no reservations recommending them to anyone who has a dog that is both kid friendly and animal friendly. Very nice family who took great care of my pups.”
