Jen was great with our super skiddish dog who doesn’t have much experience with other animals or people but Jen ensured she would do great! I got pics everyday and she’s so quick to respond! Definitely rebooking with her in the future!

Kelsi was so awesome! We needed to modify the schedule a little and she was flexible. Kelsi sent pictures everyday which is important to us. Most importantly, our little guy was happy and calm when he got back home:). Will definitely reach out to Kelsi again!!

Amy eases my anxiety about leaving my dog behind when I go out of town. I love how often she sends pictures of my baby! She is my go to lady any time I need a sitter, I know my dog really enjoys staying with her and making new friends :)

I could not be more impressed with Cyndi! My dog Finley absolutely loved her, we got so many pictures, I did not worry about him for a single moment. We have a long stay coming up next week, and doing a “trial night” was exactly what I needed to calm my nerves!

Michelle was AMAZING with my dog. My dog is a special needs dog. (He can't do stairs, has anxiety accidents, needs medication, etc.) I so rarely leave my dog with anyone else because of this. But Michelle didn't make any of his needs feel like a burden. Her and her family were so warm toward him and very attentive to his idiosyncrasies. He got along with the kids, who were sensitive to his need to warm up to people. He ran around the house and was so happy to be there with the family. Michelle sent updates multiple times a day with pictures/videos and a report on how he was doing: if he went to the bathroom, what he ate, and what his mood was like. I will be booking with her again and will very easily recommend!

Ciara was terrific with our little guy. I was so nervous leaving him for the first time. And she did everything in her power to make sure I knew he was taken care of. As a pet mama (small business owner) who goes on frequent trips, she really is amazing!

Jeanette and her family were absolutely wonderful with my pup. I needed a last-minute sitter, and she was so kind and accommodating. I was very nervous about leaving Bailey somewhere other than with family, but Jeanette immediately put me at ease. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and check-ins, which I truly appreciated. Bailey had an amazing time and was happy, tired, and clearly well loved when I picked her up. I would highly recommend Jeanette and her family, they truly made Bailey feel right at home.

Ronda was absolutely great! My pup warmed up to her immediately and I could tell by the end of her trip, Ronda was a fave! She took great care of pup and kept me up to date on her walks and behavior. My dog sometimes gets separation anxiety, but ate and enjoyed all her time. She was also super flexible with me! Highly recommend!

Donetta and her service were great. Booked over a holiday weekend short notice and all went very well. She and her pups were great companions to my dog Frida. All were very friendly. Donetta provided great care and daily communications with photos!. Easy drop-off and pick-up. Recommend and will be using again for sure!

Peyton was wonderful! Bentley had a fun time and I never had to worry about him while I was gone. She was also willing to watch him last minute which really helped me out. I would recommend Peyton.
