“Oleg was wonderful to work with. He was responsive and took our dogs last minute when we had to go out of town for a funeral. Our pups had so much fun with his family and his lab. They both came home exhausted from lots of play time! We will definitely use Oleg’s services again.”
“Bruce just spent the weekend with Vivian and I think he had even more fun than we did! Loved the photos and videos she sent to let us know how things were going. Will certainly book with her again.”
“Teresa took great care of my fur baby while I was away for 7 days. I missed my puppy so much but Teresa was very good about sending pictures and updates. Would recommend using Teresa, and I will use her again to watch Toula.”
“Kathy took great care of my cat! It was my cat Lydia's first time staying somewhere new, and she made herself right at home at Kathy's. Kathy was very attentive and responsive, and Lydia loved watching the birds on the deck! I would definitely recommend Kathy and would book her for Lydia again.”
“Jaideep was very communicative and easily accommodated my early morning drop off and pick up. He sent pictures of Sasha looking very content during her stay with him, and kept me updated on everything. I’m just passing through the area, but if you’re local to Harrisburg, PA then definitely book him!”
“Heather is an excellent sitter who loves dogs. She watched our 2 babies and they seemed happy and well cared for. Heather sent pictures to us every day. It helped us to know our babies were doing well. This is our first experience with Heather, She will be our first choice in sitter when we look for somewhere to keep our pups when we are out of town.”
“The most outstanding sitters of all time. They truly took care of my dog like he was their own, gave me constant updates and always made sure my dog felt comfortable happy and healthy no matter what the extent. They really out did themselves! :)”
“Heather is a great doggie sitter! She boarded our little guy, Obi, and he seemed very well cared for and loved. Special thanks to you Heather for taking him a few hours earlier than expected.”
“Terrific environment for our French Spaniel 'Sanza' to stay over for play, exploring, and even chill. We intend to use Pam and Mike again for our short and long trips, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, clean, and attentive home.”
“This was our second time booking with Sara & Tovia and we could not be happier with the care, attention and updates they provided. Our girl was so happy when she realized we were at their door at drop off which is always reassuring knowing she's in good hands. Cannot recommend them enough.”
“Anton was great. All was good. Professor is old and set in his ways, but he was obviously treated well and the photos & videos sent while he was there show him very happy. As far as I can see, there is no down side with leaving your Pet with Anton. We will definitely do it again.”
“Jonathan and Dana took great care of our dog Otis. It's never easy to leave him when we go away, but knowing that he is with them puts my mind at ease. They love Otis like he is their own and you can't ask for much more than that! Otis adores them as well. I highly recommend them.”
“Her name suits her well. She was an angel to my moochi. She was very prompt with the responses as well as updating me of moochi is doing. She sends me photos which i think is really nice. When i went to pick him up, he was very energetic and i could tell that he enjoyed his stay. I would highly recommend angel.”
“Kayla did an excellent job looking after Sammie while I was away for the weekend. Our meet and greet went well, and Sammie immediately warmed up to her. I will keep Kayla on my list of sitters for the future!”
“Sowmya and her family are super nice. They took good care of my dog and walk him twice a day. She shared bunch of pictures every day and my dog really had a good time at their house. I would definitely come back again when I need.”
“We were very happy with Rosa and her family. From start to finish, they were very caring and sweet. Since it was our first experience, we loved it. Our pups were in the best hands. We highly recommend trusting Rosa, you won’t regret it. Thank you so much, Rosa and family! From Tina and Cooper 🐶🐶🫶🏻❤️”

We were a little nervous about leaving our puppy for the first time, but we knew after the meet and greet with De'Andra that she would be a good match for Lucy. We received daily updates while away which we appreciated. We felt confident she was safe, happy and being well cared for. We wouldn't hesitate to leave Lucy in their care in the future. Thank you both!
Heather and Evan are wonderful! This was the first time leaving my girl with anyone, and it was for a multiple day trip. Heather consistently and promptly provided updates throughout the trip which helped me actually be able to enjoy my vacation! I couldn’t be more thankful for them and will be using them again.
This was our second time booking with Sara & Tovia and we could not be happier with the care, attention and updates they provided. Our girl was so happy when she realized we were at their door at drop off which is always reassuring knowing she's in good hands. Cannot recommend them enough.
Nina did an amazing job watching my dog. She was responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved spending time with her. I especially appreciated the photo updates—this was a huge plus and gave me total peace of mind. I would absolutely trust Nina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog sitter.
Samira is literally THE BEST!! She was so proactive in keeping me up to date on my doggie, and very flexible when I wanted to visit. We were in town for the holiday and I realized at the last minute that there was no way I could leave my baby in a kennel. Samira came to the rescue - she walked him every day and let me know how he was eating. Her dogs are so friendly and well-behaved: they got along like brothers! She’ll be our go to every time we’re in the area from now on.
We were very happy with Rosa and her family. From start to finish, they were very caring and sweet. Since it was our first experience, we loved it. Our pups were in the best hands. We highly recommend trusting Rosa, you won’t regret it. Thank you so much, Rosa and family! From Tina and Cooper 🐶🐶🫶🏻❤️
Emily and her family took care of our dog Ava like she was a part of their family. I really appreciated the pictures and updates I received from Emily throughout the week. I was worried about leaving our Ava for a week, but Emily’s updates really put my mind at ease. I know Ava enjoyed herself during her stay and she had plenty of walks and outdoor time in their fenced in yard. I will definitely rebook with this lovely family again!
