“Great experience! Simba was in great shape at pickup. They sent pictures daily which really helped the kids feel good about his first boarding experience.”


“I had my very senior, blind, deaf dog staying with Cindy for a week and she took excellent care of him. She sent me updates and pictures, I felt she showed the same care and love as I do. Definitely be booking again in the future.”


“Robin and Daniel were great. This was the first time my dog went to a sitter and I was a nervous wreck but Robin made me feel so comfortable with pictures and updates throughout the day. Definitely recommend!”


“Gianina & her family were so great to my pup. we recently moved and I was really nervous leaving him while I left town. They sent photos daily which eased my discomfort but also helped me see how well Sutton settled in to their home and it brought me a lot of ease to see how comfortable he was so quickly. I will definitely book with her again in the future.”



“Samer was so knowledgeable about dogs and made me feel very comfortable to leave my Harper. He sent me pictures of Harper during my trip, which made me feel at ease and know she was in safe hands. I’m so happy I found an amazing dog sitter. I will definitely us him again!?”

“Mary took great care of our cats for a month, and it was a fantastic experience. She once again was professional, reliable, and our cats warmed up to her and her cats quickly. I received regular updates with photos which was very reassuring. Our cats were happy and well-cared-for when we returned. I highly recommend Mary for anyone needing a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. Thank you again, Mary!”


“Third (or fourth??) time having Zi stay with Rachel - as always, Rachel was great from prior to booking, through the booking process, setting up pick up and drop off times, and while I was away! As this was the Nth time I've had Zi stay at Rachel's, I was completely worry-free and loved the photos she sent me while I was across the country. Rachel was also every so flexible with pick up and drop off times, and was even nice enough to come pick up Zi at 6 AM in the morning while I was getting ready to head to the airport for an early morning flight. Super nice, professional, gracious, every time. Simply awesome.”


“April and Josh were great with Mia. We did a meet and greet and then Mia stayed with them for 6 days. They were great with updates and very flexible with our trip having changes last minute. Mia is a very high energy dog and they were able to take great care of her and we really appreciated that!”


“Tracey was super communicative and cared for Leo well. She has a great set up and nice neighborhood for dogs, and her 2 boxer buddies were so friendly. Would definitely book again!”


“Lily was great and our Ventura got along really well with her dog. Would absolutely use her again and especially since she’s so close to Niles. Also loved all the pictures and videos she sent.”

She updated us everyday on how Hanna was doing and she would send the best pictures ever 😄. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking fir a caring sitter :-)”


“Elizabeth was amazing to work with from beginning to end. Very quick response and easy to setup with for a meet and greet and plenty of communication. Daily photos of hikes and walks and everything else I knew tom was in good hands. Can’t recommend her enough.”

“Paco stayed with Dean while I was out of town for the night and I could not have asked for a better person for my baby to be with. Dean was professional, warm, detailed and easy going starting with when I inquired about his availability all the way though the night Paco was in his care! Dean eased my concerns about my pup’s separation anxiety and sent me pictures and updates about him during his stay. It was clear how comfortable my dog was with him. Dean is a gem. This was the first time I’ve had anyone other than my family watch Paco and Dean is now part of that short list! Thank you!”


“Christina has been wonderful with my dog, Tummy. Sent couple of pictures to update me and my dog seemed comfortable. Easy to talk to and I’m definitely going to book them again.”
