“Lacee is amazing, communicative, and an absolute delight! Ziva enjoyed her weekend at her home, and my husband and I felt confident that our baby was safe. So happy to have found her!”

“Amy was amazing! I have a senior Shiba Inu who is 17 and Amy was so good with him! She was very patient with him and offered updates and pictures throughout the day. This was my first time having someone dog sit for me and she eased all of my anxiety about it. I would highly recommend her!”

“Bryn and boots were great hosts! Bryn took great care of our dog Julie. She seemed to really care about and follow Julie’s schedule. She was extremely communicative and we really appreciated all the updates even during a holiday week. Julie seemed to love spending time and playing with Boots. We will definitely be requesting to book again!”

“Geoff was an amazing sitter for Hank. Received daily updates with photos! Hank was so tired from all the walks and play time with Geoff he slept just about all day when I brought him home. Would definitely recommend Geoff and rebook in the future.”


“Kathleen was an amazing sitter. She took thorough notes on our meet and greet and sent lots of pictures and videos while I was away. This helped to assure me that my dogs were happy and being well taken care of. I highly recommend her.”


“Adrienne was wonderful. Quick to respond and kept us updated with photos and messages while we were away. She did a great job with our sensitive little dog. We will definitely call on her again.”

“Sabrina took such good care of my cat! She sent me updated and pics of him every day which gave me such peace of mind. I am definitely grateful that Sabrina was available and will definitely book with her in the future!”


“Coralee and her family were incredible. I got videos and/or photos everyday of our little lady. Our dog LOVED it at Coralee’s. Typically after boarding she gets in the car and starts whining and crying, but this time she immediately laid down and went to sleep. She was so exhausted from all the fun! I’m not sure she even wanted to go home with us! I would HIGHLY recommend Coralee to anyone. We’ve already got 2 more bookings with her for the summer, and I’m sure our pup is looking forward to playing with her friends again.”

“Ronald and his partner took really good care of sky, and I got a lot of pictures of her during the stay, that helped put my mind at ease, would definitely board with them again:)”

“Really appreciative of Richard for doing such a great job watching my dog Oscar while I was away. Richard was pleasant, his dogs were very friendly, and his home seemed like a great and safe environment for Oscar. Richard was kind enough to book with me right at the last minute and sent me photos and videos to update me during my trip. Definitely would recommend Richard to anyone looking to board their dog.”
“Rae did a great job with our dog Rosie. She was very conscientious - took extra care to text me with any concerns, took Rosie for walks, and sent nice pictures. The large, fenced-in yard was great for our 90 lb. English lab - lots of room to enjoy. Thanks Rae - we will definitely use your dog-sitting services again!”

“Nicole watched my dog while I was out of town and did a great job! I got plenty of updates, her home was lovely, and my old dog seemed so happy. 10/10 would book again!”

“Denise was a great sitter for our pup! She was very flexible with scheduling and provided regular updates throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!”

“Great! Very punctual and communicative. Supported Otto through the first day or so when he was very nervous until he was 100% comfortable. I would definitely have Sierra sit Otto again!”


“I highly recommend. She sent videos and pictures of scout every day when we were apart. I can't thank her enough for easing my mind throughout my week long trip.”


“Pam was absolutely lovely! She was able to help us on super short notice after our original sitter stopped responding to messages. She always answered promptly when I would send her a message and took extra care to ask about a health need for our dog she noticed during her stay. We received pictures everyday so we knew she was ok and having a good time. I would absolutely recommend her!!!”

“Our older cat is afraid of her shadow and keeps her distance from people she doesn’t know. Audrey was patient and gentle with her. She sent me pictures and notes every day. I like that she works from home so your pet is not left alone very often. And her adorable and very friendly kitten is happy to be a playmate or can be kept separate if needed. Give Audrey a try. You won’t be disappointed.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”

Brad and Jenny are amazing! There was a snow storm before my trip was planned and the roads were pretty bad - they let me drop Marge off a day early to accommodate at no charge. I really appreciate their responsiveness and flexibility. And they sent lots of cute dog pics too 😌

Ronald, Jason, Bella, and Frankie accepted Reba as part of their pack immediately. I knew she’d be in good hands and she was. They were also kind enough to watch her for an extra day due to weather that delayed my travel. I’m excited for Reba to visit again! Thank you so much, Ronald & Jason!

Bryn and boots were great hosts! Bryn took great care of our dog Julie. She seemed to really care about and follow Julie’s schedule. She was extremely communicative and we really appreciated all the updates even during a holiday week. Julie seemed to love spending time and playing with Boots. We will definitely be requesting to book again!
