Erin took amazing care of scooby! He was super comfortable staying with her and had a lot of fun as evidenced by her twice daily picture/ video updates. I could tell he loved her when I picked him up on the last day! Thanks Erin!

My dog had a great stay! Manami was great with Kyrah and sent lots of pictures of her while I was away. I know my dog has a lot of issues with anxiety in new people, but Manami took care of her like she was her own dog. Recommend and would book again! :)

Our dogs were well taken care of by Terrie. They were very comfortable with her and in her home. She went out of her way to make them feel at home. We felt like it was a great option for pet care. We were extremely pleased and will definitely board our dogs with her again. I think the dogs were missing her when they left!

Alvin had a fabulous time with Elsa and Nick. He learned how to go down stairs and jump onto the sofa. After 2 years I have never been able to teach hi. To see him happily descending stairs was a wonderful shock. It was wonderful to receive pictures, videos and updates daily. Alvin has only stayed away from me twice, and often ignores my visitors. So seeing how much he enjoyed his one on one pampering by Elsa and Nick was wonderful. I will be booking a date in May. Thanks for taking such wonderful care of him.

I had a last minute trip come up, and needed someone to watch my dog Nala on short notice. I rarely travel, and I work from home so I was a little worried about her separation anxiety. Amanda took amazing care of Nala, made sure she felt comfortable and safe. She provided regular photo updates, as well as keeping me informed of how Nala was eating and sleeping, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Nala had a great time playing fetch, going for walks, and snuggling on the couch. Amanda even sent her home with a cute home-made treat box (all made of ingredients that were sensitive to Nala’s allergies!). I’ll definitely be booking with Amanda again next time I need pet care - Amanda, thank you again for taking such good care of Nala!

Kelly and Zac were AMAZING hosts to our pup Kona. We’ve only ever had family watch our Kona, so we were a little nervous to try something new. We had nothing to fear. Kelly and Zach made Kona feel right at home. They sent daily updates, took her on walks, and gave her all the love! Highly recommend :)

Jaime was absolutely amazing with my pup Hawkie. She was very detailed oriented and kept me updated with how he was doing. I never worried for a second because I knew he was in good hands. He's scared of loud noises and she handled his anxiety episodes beautifully. I know that I could trust her again to watch Hawkie because he trusted her, which he doesn't trust a lot of people. Thank you Jaime for taking care of my baby.

Jennifer and her son are truly wonderful. Leaving Rio can be tough for me, but they gave me complete peace of mind. He was so incredibly well taken care of and genuinely loved every single day I was away. It’s rare to find sitters who treat your best buddy like their own family. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough! I honestly feel a little relief in my heart now. If I need to leave Rio for a few days, I've got a family that can truly and lovingly take care of my best buddy in the whole world.

Sarah and her family were absolutely wonderful with our 5-month-old Goldendoodle, Chopper! We left him for an 11-day stay, which was a long time for a young puppy, but Sarah made us feel completely at ease. They have a bustling, lively home with kids and other pets, which turned out to be the perfect, fun vacation for Chopper. He is a high-energy puppy who loves to bounce and wander, and they managed his excitement beautifully. We came home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for pup. We highly recommend Sarah and will absolutely trust her with Chopper again.
