“Joel & Crystal have been so incredible with how they’ve welcomed in our sensitive pup and really made her feel at home!! She is always so excited to go spend time with them. We are so grateful for them!”
“Tessa is amazing! She took such good care of my puppy Kobe. She shared lots of updates throughout the day, video and photos. Thank you so much for such an amazing job taking care of my baby. I would highly recommend Tessa to anyone who’s looking for someone to take care of their furbabies while they’re away traveling.”
“We have a rescue dog who is nervous in new situations but Dee Dee was wonderful with her. She gave her a great atmosphere to feel calm and welcome, and then plenty of pets when our pup was ready. Dee Dee was communicative, cheerful, and sent us lots of photos, which we loved. We are definitely going to reach out to Dee Dee the next time we go out of town. She’s so delightful!”
“We are so glad that Julie watched our five-month-old pup for us! It is obvious that this is not just a job for Julie but she genuinely loves and adores dogs! 🥰 Julie watched Zoey for 13 days while we went on vacation. Each day she sent a little note and picture of Zoey to us so that we could be assured of her good care and joy in being with Julie and the other dogs! We will hire Julie again to watch our Zoey!”
“Diana was amazing with our Daisy. Daisy had such an awesome time she cannot even wait for her next visit I only send Daisy to the best and well Diana is definitely the best”

“Chelsea is amazing! Her and her family took wonderful care of my baby and I will definitely be contacting her again if Binx needs a place to stay. She even made us treats! So thankful for kind people like her:)”
“Diane was great, very transparent about her services and asking for permission if she can watch other dogs while sitting if something came up. I really appreciated the constant photos and update she sent on my Mazzy girl, because it was a 9 day stay.”
“While our mini-dox Bella was somewhat nervous about being away from home, Tania and her family did what they could to make her feel comfortable. We appreciate that.”
“Katelyn was wonderful with our dogs! She sent daily pictures that reassured me they were in good hands. She is a kind and gentle person and our dogs could not have been in better care!”

“They were both awesome!! We were coming from out of town so naturally nervous to leave our dog, but they were so comfortable with him. It was obvious they have dealt with a lot of different temperaments and were super communicative and sent lots of great pics!”
“Jonathan gave great care to our girls and he provided excellent communication. It is such peace of mind to have someone who cares looking after our girls when we need to be away.”
“My dog Willow was so excited when she met Michelle that it was easy to leave and know she was in good hands. Dogs are good judges of character. It was so nice to receive daily updates and photos while we were gone. All truthful because we know our pup is not perfect. They seemed to figure Willow out quickly and worked with her so everyone could enjoy themselves (especially Michelle’s cat!). Thank you, Thank you Michelle and Anthony. We hope it will work out again so when we travel we can relax and Willow can have a great time as well!”
“We are so grateful to Amy & Rob for taking such wonderful care of our dog! We felt that they listened to our care instructions and concerns and felt confident throughout our pup's stay. Amy & Rob were attentive, kind, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay - and provided photos of our dog's meds being administered which we appreciated so much. Our dog came back happy and well-cared for, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Brandy is loving and caring for our pooches. She is very sweet and accommodating and our dogs had a great time staying with her and playing with her own dogs in the yard. Would recommend.”
“Amanda and Matthew were great! Super gracious with our unpredictable schedule. Our pup immediately ran to greet them and their two dogs welcomed him right into their pack. They have a great fenced property and are friendly and caring. It worked out great for a quick overnight stay on our road trip. Highly recommend!”
