“Mady was great. Thank you for letting me drop Honey off early in the morning, and staying up close to midnight so that I could pick her up. You listened well to Honey’s needs, and I can tell she enjoyed herself in your big backyard. Would definitely use again.”

“Crystal was wonderful. She really puts her all into babysitting our pups! My mini poodle loved her and had other pups to play with. She was very intentional from the start, we also had a FaceTime and in-person meet & greet. I would definitely use her as my go-to.”

“They made me completely comfortable from the jump and I was so grateful! This was my first time being away from my baby since we got him and I was so anxious but they sent pictures and videos everyday and he had an INCREDIBLE time! Will be using them again for sure ?”

“OMG!! Donna is the best sitter! She really treated my Lola as her very own. Donna and her husband were great! I was so worried about leaving my dog with a sitter, and Donna made me feel extra comfy by keeping me constantly updated with photos and videos of how my dog was doing while away. The home was very clean , and her pets really are a plus, and made Lola feel good as well , as she had a ball playing with them. I will be using Donna again very soon. And she is highly recommended if you need a dog sitter. Thanks again Donna!?”


“One word: AMAZING! Erin took amazing care of our cat. Always kept me posted on how his day was. And took tons of pictures for us. My cat didn’t even want to come home. I will definitely book Erin again in the future!”

“Team Hopkins is the best! Our Sunny was so happy when we returned home. We will definitely rebook. Thank you both so much for keeping our hearts at ease while we were on travel.”

“Carlie was amazing with our puppy Sadie. It was our first time leaving her with anyone and it went so well. Lots of love to our sweet puppy and she was happy all day. Carly shared lots of pics as well. Highly recommend!”

“Brian and Sheena were great with Charlie. They sent us pics daily and updates on how he was doing. We are grateful for their care of him. Also our plane was delayed, so we were an hour late picking him up. They were very understanding. We will use them again.”

“Absolutely wonderful experience that Star had with Eli. Eli did an amazing job taking care of Star and we will return to him every time we are in need of a sitter for our dog. Thank you Eli!”

“She's great with Ziggy & Brooklyn! Super responsive, gives frequent updates, & really takes time to care for them, noting changes in bowel movements & even combing them. Highly recommend!”

“Katelyn provided the most amazing care for our puppy!! He was spoiled with multiple walks, many treats, and tons of snuggles while we were away for a long weekend. He became friends with their sweet husky as well. Can’t wait for him to stay with her family again soon!! Thank you!!”


“Michelle was caring and really helpful on making our dogs feel at ease at her home. Sent us a bunch of pictures everyday and kept us informed on how the dogs were doing. I would definitely recomend her.”
“We only had 22-month-old Addie less than two weeks, when we unexpectedly had to go out of town. We were concerned about leaving her so soon, but after meeting Marcella, we were no longer apprehensive. Marcella is wonderful, as is her sweet dog, Caesar! Addie stayed with Marcella for two days and two nights, and did well, had fun with the other dogs, and enjoyed the fenced backyard. If we had any lingering doubts (of which we had none), they would have been chased away by the photos and videos of Addie in action, that Marcella sent each day. It’s obvious that Marcella is a caring person who loves animals. We definitely will be leaving Addie in her care again.”

“Lindsay is amazing! I took a trip abroad and left my fur babies in her care while I was away and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Lindsay is very responsive and provided pictures and updates without me ever having to ask. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs. I will most definitely be sending my babies back to her for future trips.”

“I am always hesitant to leave my dog with anyone, but Marta made me feel so comfortable and I knew Hibana would be in great hands! I knew from the moment we did a meet & greet before we officially did the booking. Helped me get to know her and her own two dogs and it was great! Hibana has the best 5 days there :) and I got pictures every day which made me feel better about leaving my dog lol. Hibana is an apartment dog so she was in love with Marta’s back yard. And since this is Marta’s full time job her attention was on the dogs all the time. Would 100% recommend. If I could give her 10 stars I would lol.”

“This was my first experience with a dog sitter. I could not have left my dog in better hands! Lots of updates, pictures and even a video were sent to me. While I expected my dog to be a bit depressed in my absence, Alicia filled my shoes perfectly. My dog took to her and her family right away. She took my dog on lots of walks and gave her lots of cuddles ...honestly - she did more than I do. Alicia has a nice backyard in which dogs can play. I definitely will use Alicia again if I need a dog sitter.”

“I absolutely love Katie! I have anxiety leaving my Snoopy but Katie is the best with him. I don't want to use anymore else but her. Thank you again Katie. Snoopy loves being with you!!!”

“Sandra was amazing! Our two dogs stayed for 3 nights and had an absolute blast. They played outside in the back yard and kiddie pool and had fun toys to play with. She sent pictures and updates every day and our dogs looked so happy! Highly recommend her for boarding or doggy play dates.”
