I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures on how Lucy was doing. We were gone for a week and I felt comfortable and confident leaving Lucy in her care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”


“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”


“Joleya made Oreo feel so comfortable that I thought he wouldn’t want to come home! She was kind and responsive and flexible when we had to modify the pick up type. When I picked him up he was his usual happy go lucky self. I can tell he had an amazing time! I would absolutely love to utilize Joleya’s services again.”

I'm so grateful to have found Jeff and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Jeff, for giving Happy the love and attention he deserves!”


“My fur-child Jetson had a great 4 day stay at Julie"s place. She kept my mind at ease by sending lots of updates and pictures while he was in her care. She also was great at making sure he stayed on his medication and letting me know exactly how she was handling his anxiety and health concerns. I was so comfortable with her care of him and will be sure to book her again in the future!”



“We had a wonderful experience with Cyndi! I received pics/updates in morning and evenings and Brutus was just as spoiled at her house as he is ours! We would definitely have him stay with her again! We had zero worries as we knew he was in excellent care!”


“Amber was very accommodating. I contacted her last minute to watch Copper and she was available and happy to help! She worked with my schedule for drop off and pick up times, and was very flexible. She sent me pictures and videos even though it was just a short stay, which I really appreciate. She even helped with Copper’s travel anxiety by giving him his meds and taking him for a walk to get out some energy before I picked him up to travel home. He seemed to love staying there and was exhausted after a weekend with Amber and her family. I would definitely recommend!”


“Donetta was great with Graham! I was a little worried leaving him because I wasn’t sure how he would adjust being gone overnight without seeing me. However, she sent pictures and she gave updates on how he was doing. I was very pleased with her services. I highly recommend Donetta, you won’t be disappointed she’s great with dogs.”

I was out of the country for two weeks, but always could tell form the updates, photos and videos that my gentle old man was in the best of care. Especially loved seeing him get special attention on his 15th birthday! Alex has much experience with all types of dogs, and it shows. Very professional. Thank you so much!”

She was super communicative while I was gone and accommodating with pickup. Amazing sitter and I’ll definitely be using her again!”
