“My dog Quigley had an amazing weekend with Diana and Scott. They took him to lots of fun places and we’re sure to update me every day! They were very professional and I look forward to using them for my pet care needs in the future!”
“Undram did an amazing job caring for Gizmo. He came home to us so happy and calm. I can tell he was well loved and understood. We were so thrilled after a grueling flight to come home to such a happy pup!”
“Tilly stayed with Adam for a whole week and truly appreciated the services! I had some moving start and end times due to a last minute change to flying and Adam was very accommodating. She is happy to see him and makes me enjoy my trip much more knowing she seems very content and happy while I am away!”
“Tammy was the best taking care of Vinnie!! She was available last minute when I couldn’t get anyone else to sit him and was very responsive, which I really appreciate. Vinnie got to play with the other dogs at the house and run off some energy. Will definitely be using Tammy again!!”
“Laura & Vladimir were great sitters, very professional and great communication throughout the stay. Highly recommended and will use them again.”
“Corey & Rob took such great care of Brixton while we were out of the country! We were nervous leaving Brixton with anyone because he’s epileptic and requires daily meds at specific times but they went above and beyond to understand his condition and ask questions. Their attention to detail and genuine care gave us so much peace of mind.”
“Ariel took great care of my 1.5 year old and 6 month old Boston Terriers while I was out of town 6 days. They are both very high energy and loved playing in her large yard. Both were also getting over an upper respiratory infection, and she administered their medicine. Both eat fresh food, and she was able to accommodate their special feeding plans. She sent me pics and videos every day. A huge help for me was her pickup and dropoff service. I have a number of trips coming up the rest of the year and will definitely use Ariel to take care of my doggos while I'm away.”
“I had a last minute emergency and had to leave town and my pup behind. Thankfully, Rachel and Vincent were accommodating and flexible! I got plenty of communication with questions and updates throughout the day, putting me at ease. Thank you so much!”
“Brian took great care of my dog and asked thoughtful questions to ensure my dog’s first stay with him would go well. He provided a picture daily and my dog was happy when I picked her up.”
“Doug & Deb are wonderful pet parents! With short notice, they took in my senior dog and made her feel home. Well cared for and exercised. We will definitely come back!”
“Joe goes above and beyond to understand the pets in his care. Our dog happily goes to his home. Joe does a wonderful job communicating and sending pictures.”
“Jackie and her family were amazing with our dog. They took amazing care of him, and even took him out to play a few times. Jackie kept me updated with pictures and videos though-out the weekend. Our dog enjoyed his visit and I will be booking Jackie next time we’re in need of a sitter!!”
“We have spent a long time looking for a boarding option that we feel comfortable with and I am glad we finally found Brian! He made us feel confident that our pup was well taken care of with his knowledge and love for dogs as well as the pictures and updates we received while we were away. He is very good with communication and was flexible on timing. It was a positive experience in every way!”
“Our two girls, Elizabeth and Scout, were cared for wonderfully by Suzanne. On our first meet and great prior to boarding, our girls took to Suzanne immediately, this was GREAT to see since we booked a sixteen night stay! Elizabeth needed to have oral medication twice daily and Suzanne was happy to make sure Elizabeth's needs were met. We were pleased with how well our girls got along with Suzanne's new puppy, Harley ?, and her fenced-in yard provided a safe outdoor space for our girls to hang out. Suzanne was great at sending photos and videos, to keep us updated on how our girls were doing throughout our trip. When we picked our dogs up, we found two very happy girls, that had a great time in Suzanne's care. We highly recommend Suzanne for your dog sitting or boarding needs, as she really seems to have a way with dogs.????”
“Kimberly is a very capable and confident caregiver. Almost a dog whisperer. After we left town, she informed us that our pet didn’t take well to hers. She didn’t panic or pout to us. Just informed and managed it for 8 nights. Would use her again and recommend her highly!”
“Jonathon took the time to make Kenya feel comfortable. He followed my instructions and went out of his way to make things work. The only thing I would like more is additional information about walks and how he’s doing on eating, etc. I will use Jonathon again and trust him with my dog - that’s the most important thing.”
“Rossana and Kurt were amazing with our baby Coco, they catered to her special needs so wonderfully!! We will definitely be using Rossana and Kurt again.”
“Rob has went above and beyond for my Nova. I had to make a very hard decision to possibly putting her in a shelter, but he said “no” I will keep her until a loving home is found for her. It has happen and it’s going to be bitter sweet, Rob is loving her as she deserves. Thank you Rob for your loving heart and passion.”
“We left our dog Louie for five days with Pamela. Pamela did a great job watching him! She sent pictures every day and kept us informed to put us at ease. He got lots of attention and outdoor time and walks.”
“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my dog Pumpkin to Eric, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the outstanding care she received. It was evident that Eric is not just a caregiver but has a true passion for animals. Communication was seamless and reassuring throughout the entire process. Eric took the time to understand my dog's unique needs, preferences, and routines, ensuring a smooth transition during my time away. Regular updates, including photos and videos, provided an invaluable connection while I was away. Upon my return, it was clear that my dog had not just been well cared for but had genuinely enjoyed her time with Eric making the transition back home easy!”

Another fantastic stay, I love how flexible Corey and a Robert are. We stayed for one night, Weston had pups to play with, Corey made sure he ate and I'm sure he got his snuggles in as well.
Casey and Jonathan took great care of our precious girl and she came back tired and happy! Easy to communicate with and nice yard for them to play.
Suzanne is a very friendly person. She asked several questions on how to handle Toby. Suzanne followed up with texts and pictures. Toby adjusted well to Suzanne. Will use her again.
Our pup, Storie, absolutely loved her stay with Stephanie and felt right at home. She was so loved and spoiled while we were away and we received really great pictures and videos along the way. Our flight got delayed and she was very accommodating. We really hope Storie gets to see Stephanie and her family again!
Laura is great with our pup. He is always excited to go visit with her and knows when we are parking outside her home. Thank you Laura for taking such good care of him while we are away! 😊
Jasmin and her boyfriend were great to my little guy. Great communication and photos about how my guy was handling his separation anxiety. Would love to use them again.
Janet takes amazing care of our older dog and cat. She is great at communicating how they are doing. I always feel at ease leaving out pets with her.
Jackie saved me! I had a last minute trip and she was so responsive and helpful. She provided so many pictures and videos of my dog and was super communicative. When my dog was stressed and wouldn't eat her kibble, Jackie made her food to make sure she was eating. She was super flexible about times and very kind. I am so happy to have a wonderful dog sitter in town, and I will absolutely be going back to Jackie next time I need a sitter. Cannot recommend her enough!
Casey was absolutely great with my dog Wexler whom she had an immediate rapport. My dog can be kind of nervous at times but she seemed quite at home with Casey. Casey even drove her back to our place. Would absolutely hire again!
My dog is so happy when she gets to Camille’s She gets treated like a princess! Lots of couch time and walks!
Colleen is a wonderful sitter. We started our dog’s stay with her on the wrong foot as our dog seemed to be suffering from a virus of sorts. But Colleen was extremely caring and understanding, and worked hard to help nurse our pup back to health. We would recommend Colleen to any parents of fur babies.
Elva took great care of my dog, Hallie! She’s a young dog with lots of energy and Elva happily played with her and set lots of photo and video updates. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
This was our first time leaving Millie with Tim and it seemed like she had a great time! He sent lots of photo updates and answered any questions we had along the way. Would definitely recommend Tim!
Laura was great with my dog, she walked him a lot and took cute pictures of him making sure I know he is good. Definitely would leave my dog with her again.
Brian is very thoughtful and responsive. I am a repeat customer and I will definitely recommend him.
This was our first experience with Rover and Kimberly made it really easy! She answered all our questions and met our dog in advance of her stay to make sure she would be comfortable. Our dog was clean and well cared for and happy upon her return. We would be glad to book with Kimberly again!
Karina was very responsive to questions and inquiries. During our trip she cared for our two dogs in her home. She provided lots of photos and updates. Our dogs were safe and well cared for. She did have other dogs on the premises and they all got along. It was summer camp for our pups!
Aimee was accommodating and updated me often. Her building was clean and pet friendly. I would use her again
