“Excellent Dog Sitter - Highly Recommended! I recently had the pleasure of hiring Max to watch my Shih Tzu and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. From the moment we met Max, it was evident that he loved animals and dedicated to providing top-notch care. One of the standout qualities of Max was his attentiveness. He paid close attention to my dog's needs, ensuring that she was comfortable and well taken care of at all times. Whether it was feeding, walking, or playtime, Max made sure my dog was happy and content. Communication was also exceptional. Max regularly sent me updates and photos of my dog, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was heartwarming to see my dog enjoying herself and being well looked after. Max’s dedication to keeping me informed was truly appreciated. Furthermore, I was thrilled to learn that he even took my dog to play at the Pearl. The Pearl is a fantastic place for dogs to socialize and have fun, and I'm grateful that the sitter took the initiative to provide such enriching experiences for my dog. It's clear that he went above and beyond to ensure my dog had a great time. Overall, I highly recommend Max to anyone in need of reliable and caring pet care services. His attentiveness, regular updates, and willingness to take my dog to exciting places like the Pearl truly set them apart. I will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future for any pet sitting needs. Thank you for taking such great care of my beloved Chata!”

“My dog Gracie is a rescue who, even at age 5, remains shy and skittish with people she doesn't know. This was her first time to stay with Anna. Anna was patient and understanding with Gracie. We will be repeat customers. Hopefully, in time, Gracie with warm up more to Anna and be more comfortable staying with her when I have to be away.”

“Abel and Alisa were phenomenal host and treated my dog as their very own. They sent constant pictures and even made him treats, and gave us to go treat with ingredients on how to make it ourselves.

They truly are a 5 star host, thank you so much for taking such great care of my furry companion.”

“I looked at 20 or 30 profiles on here then I came across Stephanie whose profile states she has experience with MWD puppy program puppies and that’s why I chose to leave Ammo with her when I took a short work trip. She took such great care of Ammo and she always replied quick to my messages. I would gladly leave Ammo in her car again and as a matter of fact he will be back with her for two weeks in September. Thank you!!!!”
