Alice has watched our dog several times now. We trust her to take loving care of him, no matter his needs. She goes above and beyond! Great communication and pictures, helps us feel connected to our pup when we’re away. Grateful for her consistent care when we’re away.

Jenevieve was everything you could want in a pet sitter! We left our dog and cat with her while we were gone for a week. They both thrived and got loved on by the whole family. She followed feeding instructions to a “T” and gave them so much loving and attention. We will definitely book with her again! Can’t recommend enough.

Ashley has boarded our fur babies a few times and has done an amazing job taking care of them. We will never use another person. She helped ease our minds with leaving our fur babies in her hands for a week. They are always so excited to see her.

Miranda is AMAZING with the dogs she watches. Miranda’s level of care, attention to detail, and energetic personality gives me comfort that my dogs are well taken care of and having a fun loving experience while I am away. I recommend Miranda for all your dog sitting needs!

Kermit seemed like he had a great time and came back to me happy and totally pooped... what more could you ask for?! Kristy is also super nice. I only booked a week in advance and also had a friend pick Kermit up for me because of a delayed flight - she was very responsive and the whole situation was no fuss, which I appreciated.

I have known Cory and his spouse for a long time. They are caring, loving, a sweet couple. Both love and care for their animals as if they were their children. They are hardworking and strive to give 100 percent to anything that they are working at. I would trust them with my own sweet dog and my very life.

Wow, that’s all I can say. We were in a tough situation as we were traveling from Texas to Minnesota and Wayne got so sick. He had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital. Evan was there early in the morning to pick the dogs up, in fact, the whole family was there. They sent pictures they sent updates. .as we did not know how many days of Rover we needed. They were completely flexible with us and each day when I text and say I need one more day they were very amenable to that. They prayed for Wayne , I think they still are. My dogs were relaxed and happy, not anxious at all. I believe they got the best care I could’ve found for CoCo and PoPee.

Thank you for watching our dog, Lady, for New Years! I know she enjoyed all the extra attention and playing at your house. I would love to have your big backyard! We will definitely bring her back if we are in the area again.

Justin was great to work with! He asked great questions at drop off to get to know our dog and care for him well. Would recommend him and use him again in the future! He was also transparent about other dogs he was boarding the same time ours was there.

Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!

Alli is a pro at walking/sitting dogs. She lights up when she gets to interact and care for animals. She loves all animals, but she has a soft spot for pups. You have probably seen her walking all over town with her own dog. She is the most responsible person I know & she has the biggest heart. Your dog will be in great hands with Alli.
