“What fun for Hazel! Our 4 year old labradoodle got several walks a day, had a buddy dog to play with and had young children in her life! She came home happy and content. Thank you Courtney and Izaic - we hope you will keep Hazel whenever we have to be out of town.”
“Even when it's been months since my little guy has seen Anna, she makes him feel immediately comfortable and loved. That makes me feel better about leaving him. She's super responsive and sends photos/videos while I'm gone. I appreciate having found someone I feel safe leaving my buddy with!”
“Lewie absolutely adores Lana and Wayne and their sweet pup Sadie. He’s in Heaven when he stays with them and I love the updates and sweet pics of Lewie. Lana and Wayne are so great with my pup and I’m so very thankful to have found them!”
“Joaquin did an amazing job taking care of King! He went above and beyond by taking time out of his day to do a meet-and-greet before I even booked, which I truly appreciated—especially since King can be a handful. I wanted to make sure King would feel comfortable and be on his best behavior, and Joaquin made that happen. Throughout the stay, he kept me updated with pictures and videos, which was so reassuring. When I picked King up, I could tell he had a great time and felt right at home. Thank you so much for your outstanding service, Joaquin! I’ll definitely be booking with you again in the future.”
“We were so pleased with Cooper’s stay! He clearly got lots of attention (he does love his attention) and had a fun time. We felt like the environment was very similar to what he is used to at home. Thanks so much and we will definitely use Taylor again!”
“Our Sammy is a puppy and can be a handful, and Sarah handled him with TLC and gave him the best care! She updated me with pics and videos, and he had so much fun! Sammy is going back in July for another stay. I am 100% satisfied with the love and care they gave my baby! Thank you Sarah!!”
“Amy & John took such good care of our two dogs, boarding them for nearly a week while we traveled. I was so appreciative and relieved they would consider us, as our young dog, River, is always curious and has a pretty strong prey drive. I wondered if he would be suited to life on their farm. Our other guy, Colton, is 15 and has significant arthritis. These two could not have more different needs at this point. Amy and John have a beautiful farm, two special rescued dogs, Bruno & Pork Chop, cattle, chickens, even emu. This would be a new experience for both our guys! Generally we spend a great deal of time with them off leash walking our family farms, but this would be a new property and boundaries without fencing. At our meet and greet it was clear Amy and John are special people. We admired them right away! They are very experienced, and were aptly methodical about the introduction of all the dogs and their other farm animals. Their confidence that this could work for all parties involved was reassuring. Amy and John went above and beyond, very kind to take our dogs a day earlier than planned with short notice, and welcomed our daughter, also new to them, who transported the dogs for us. They were excellent at communicating, sending us updates, pictures, and videos, even though we’d told them this was not necessary, as keeping up with River, his energy and curiosities, we knew could be a full time job in and of itself. But it gave us great peace of mind hearing early on that all was going well and there were no issues. Because of Amy & John’s care, patience, and diligence, after a full day with them we received the following, “..Bruno and River have become fast friends, running circles and playing hide and seek in the woods like wild things! We’re not using the leashes at all as we walk in the woods. River’s been absolutely perfect about coming back when we call him.” And I got the biggest kick out of, “I just got back from a walk with all four dogs, Pork Chop and Colton waddling behind me and River and Bruno having a blast playing chase.” Along with a picture Amy sent of River with his head poking through from behind her knees (as crazy as it sounds), something he humors only us with here at home, we KNEW both our guys felt comfortable, were happy and very much cared for. I could not imagine a more perfect scenario for our dogs. Now back at home, we can definitely sense they are missing Amy, John, Bruno, Pork Chop, and daily life on their farm. I’d love to arrange a play date to help with this, and I KNOW precisely what River and Colton’s reactions will be once we approach their farm. It’s clear this is a family that loves animals and cares so much for the well-being of all they have rescued and assumed responsibility for. They are kind, exceptional, hard-working individuals, and we feel so fortunate to have met them and to have our dogs cared for by them. This is who we will turn to any time we need care and boarding for our dogs!”
“Christy was absolutely amazing with Lola. Her babies Kili and Ashi were great playmates to Lola as well. She kept me updated with pictures of Lola during her time there. Definitely will rebook!”
“Grace was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! I was under time restraints and needed some one to board my 2 young cats. Ot was last minute cause life happens and she worked with me 100%!!!!! This was my first time using this app and I will again!!! And I am only using Grace again too!!! Thank you for everything Grace!”
“Thank you so much for watching Rocky last minute. He always seems to be very happy and well taken care of when visiting. So thank you. P.s. - yes, he loves to be rubbed and doesn't want you to ever stop. Lol. Thanks again!”
“Meia's boarding service was EXCEPTIONAL! She communicated the entire process, keeping us informed either via messages, pictures and/or videos. She made our fur-baby feel at home away from home and truly bonded with him. She showed unconditional love towards him and was open to his routines and also helped to extend new opportunities for him. Meia followed his lead and made sure to make his "vacation" one to never forget! Thank you Meia, we really appreciate your gift for loving others and allowing it flourish through your love for animals. You are the best sitter ever!”
“Kristen was the perfect sitter for our dog, Lilly. We received daily updates and pictures from Kristen which put our minds at ease as we traveled. I strongly recommend Kristen for anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“This was our second time booking and it seemed like our boy was so excited to be with Essence! He seemed way more comfortable and happy to be there!”
“Alex was wonderful. Marvel seems so happy with him! He was a great communicator and offered me a lot of flexibility when my travel plans changed a little. Highly recommend and will be using him again next time I’m in town!”
“Jeremy was fantastic! We had to leave our fur baby behind when we left for a week and he sent us plenty of pictures and videos throughout our trip. Very responsive to any and all questions!”
“A great experience. Erin kept in touch daily. When our schedule changed unexpectedly she was flexible and helpful. We will use her services again!”

“Wonderful!! Britteny and her family took great care of our great dane. I know she was treated like family while she was with them. Will definitely use her again to watch our babies!! ❤️”
“This was our first time using Tara as a sitter and we were very happy with the experience. Tara was professional and clearly knew how to care for and interact with Brandy who is a little timid around new people. Tara worked with Brandy to get her comfortable with a new routine, and showed resourcefulness in getting Brandy to take her meds and be comfortable eating in a new environment. Tara sent us pictures and kept us informed about Brandy's progress. Brandy clearly felt comfortable and content under Tara's care. We will definitely be having Tara care for Brandy again!”
“Ariana was fantastic! My dogs really enjoyed their visit with Ariana and her pups! They looked sad to leave...haha. Will definitely ask her to watch my babies again. She even helped me learn how to make my dogs more confidant when meeting other pups!”
