“Matt was absolutely wonderful our Dalmatian, Juniper! He was also so accommodating when our flight home was cancelled resulting in us picking her up a couple hours later than originally scheduled. I would highly recommend him if you ever need a sitter for your dog, and would not hesitate to book with him in the future.”

“Raye is amazing! I left my two dogs in her care while I was on vacation for an entire week. This was my first time having her as a dog sitter and my first time having the dogs in somebody else’s home while I was away for a while. She provided them with such great care while I was gone and they were so comfortable, which says a lot since one of my dogs is more anxious and timid. But she took great care of them and made them feel right at home: she took them on lots of walks, they got to enjoy her yard, and they got to spend so much quality time with her and her dog Ollie. She had great communication - she sent me lots of updates and pictures daily, so I knew the dogs were doing well while I was gone. It’s never easy leaving my dogs for a long period of time, but she made the experience so much better. I will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to anybody else.”

She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”

Alex was so mindful of her needs and helped her settle in quickly to a new place while we were away. She sent photos and updates which made me feel more at ease while on our trip. I will definitely board my dog with her again. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Blythe took excellent care of our pup, Fergus. We were nervous leaving him for the first time, and she immediately put our minds at ease. She made sure he was comfortable and familiar with her place before the overnight. She was incredibly responsive and caring. We loved the picture updates, and we could tell he really enjoyed his time with her. We will definitely board him with her in the future.”
