“Alivia was an amazing sitter for Ares! She was incredibly attentive and made sure he had everything he needed while I was away. She sent regular updates and photos, which kept me completely in the loop and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and I could tell Ares was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Alivia to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”

“Jessica did an excellent job with little B and he came home happy and healthy. He can’t settle down without his dog bed, so we were glad we could leave it with him. We also brought his food and water bowl. Jessica was professional, competent, and caring. Five star rating, for sure! We will definitely use her again.”

“I can not say enough good things! Jada ran right to her door when we go there for the meet and greet and on drop off day. After the meet and greet I knew we had found the right place and I had absolutely no worries leaving her there the night before we left town. We had multiple pictures every day and I could tell Jada was having as much fun on her vacation as we were having on ours. We will absolutely book with Jessica again. Thank You!”

“Cary & Lara seemed to welcome Milli into their home with ease! Milli was completely relaxed after her stay which tells me she had a very comfortable visit! I appreciated Lara walking Milli the morning I picked up! Milli loves to walk! Thank you so much!”

“Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!”

“Ivana treated Max like he was her family. He was happy feeling part of the team with her dogs. He was pampered and loved. I will definitely use Ivana again.. so satisfied with her care for Max.🥰”

“This was our first booking and we were nervous. Candace and her family were absolutely amazing. Drop off and pick up were convenient and flexible. Lilo seemed to absolutely love his time with them. We got updates and pics of how he was doing, this certainly put our minds at ease. We booked Candace almost immediately again for our next trip because they left us so comfortable with their care of Lilo. We are so happy we found this family to care for our guy.”

“Kayla is wonderful! Very patient with our girls. While watching them over the weekend, she took them for walks and gave them love and attention. I can tell she did well with the girls, as they were relaxed and not nerved up from Kayla being at our home for the weekend. Thank you Kayla for taking GREAT care of our girls!”

“Holly and family were amazing. They boarded our two dogs for 12 days without any issues. Holly sent updates and photos every day and our dogs loved staying with her. We hope to do business with Holly every time we need a sitter!”

Colonel had another stay with Kimberlee and Mitchell. As soon as we arrived, Colonel could not wait to start playing with their dog. Kimberly sent me updates each day which gave me peace of mind that everything was going well. We will be using them again and we highly recommend!

Ashley and her family took such great care of my Ruby. I appreciated the updates and photos so much while I was missing my fur baby. Her kiddos definitely gave her lots of love and belly rubs. She got her medicine twice a day as instructed. Would definitely use Ashley again to watch my Ruby.

Robin & John were excellent sitters for my elderly dog Mousey. They requested a meet and greet beforehand with Mousey before dog sitting and was very professional, nice, patient, and kind to Mousey. While dog sitting Robin and John kept me updated on how she was doing, gave her all medications as directed and sent me plenty of pictures with Mousey enjoying herself. Robin & John gave Mousey alot of attention, they petted her, held her, spoiled her, and treated her like family. Mousey was happy and playful when I picked her up, so I knew she enjoyed her stay. I would definitely recommend Robin & John to watch your pet, you won't regret it. Thank you Robin and John for taking such great care of Mousey!
