“My dog loved staying with Kristina! She is definitely a dog person and her house is very dog friendly. I appreciated the time she took to get to know me and Mosley before I left him and all the pictures and videos she sent while we were away. Now he is wiped out and trying to recover from all the fun he had :)”
“Brooke and her kids were very sweet to my two pups and sent them home very tired from a fun weekend. Brooke kept the dogs on their normal routine, let them sleep on the furniture, and sent daily updates with pictures. We will be booking with her again.”
“Beth was so good with my dog. It was a last minute booking and she was so incredibly accommodating. I am so appreciative of her and her gentle nature caring for my pup. She also fosters a dog and he and my dog got along well, and even tuckered my high energy border collie/aussie mix out. She was so intentional in caring for my dog that she was worried about keeping her clean after long play sessions in her fenced in yard that was muddy from the rain, and that means a lot. That somebody watching my dog would care enough to keep her clean. Thanks so much Beth, if I ever need a sitter again, I know where to turn.”
“Erica was amazing! She kept our two dogs for the weekend and they loved it. She sent several pictures so we knew they were having fun and in great hands while we were out of town. Would absolutely recommend them to everyone!!”

“I recently hired Michelle to care for my dog, and it was an amazing experience! From our first meeting, it was clear that Michelle is a true dog lover. She took the time to understand my dog's needs, which made me feel at ease. Throughout the stay, Michelle provided excellent care, ensuring my dog received plenty of love, exercise, and attention. She sent regular updates and adorable photos, and videos showing that my dog was enjoying his time. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for anyone needing a caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dog!”

“Celeste was great I paid an additional fee for her to pick Kai up & drop off at our home. I received pictures & updates of Kai everyday while we were away.

“I've used Cinthia and Fer dozens of times for sitting daycare and boarding and I think they deserve an updated review for all the love they give my dog baby.

“Jessica and her husband were so kind to us while watching our dog Willie. We got daily updates and pictures, which was super comforting while we missed our feller. Willie was happy to be home, but I could tell he was just as happy to be there as well. As long as Jessica is accepting boards, I will continue to exclusively use her. I could not have asked for a better experience for my dog and us!”
“Jamie & Michael made our old dog feel safe and comfortable! Even their dog Pepe was an excellent host. Highly recommend for anyone needing a home away from home for their fur baby.”
