Emily and her husband were so nice and were perfect for my dog, Cassie. I got updates daily about her play and how she was doing along with pictures and videos. Their home is spacious, has a fenced in (good sized) backyard with lots of room for playtime! My girl did great with her dogs who were also very good hosts. I am already in talks with Emily about watching my girl again in a few months for our next trip. Highly recommend.

Megan takes such good care of Sophie! Sophie is on more meds now that she’s older and Megan is so good about asking any questions and keeping up with the medication chart. We were unable to fly home after the Caribbean air space was shut down and Megan kept Sophie even longer until we returned. We appreciated it so much. We will definitely book with Megan again!

About: I’ve owned multiple disabled dogs and can care for them. I’m also experienced in giving medicine to animals that may need it. grew up around a lot of different animals and I love spending time with new animals and seeing all the different dog and cat breeds. 😁 I stay at home and my schedule is very flexible, so the fur babies will get plenty of attention and love! They will always have me with them for some company and play time. I can take care of pets in any way that their pet owner would like. I don’t have many rules and would just like for the fur babies to be comfortable in the new environment!

I’m so grateful for Dina! She took in my two dogs while I was away for a week and they were comfortable and content when I picked them up. One of my dogs is reactive and Dina and her family handled her flawlessly. Dina’s knowledge of dogs and their body language was a blessing! Thank you!

Andrew made our Bear feel welcome right away by playing with him and introducing him to his small dog, Lucky Bear. He had lots of room to play inside and was given regular walks. Andrew sent us pictures throughout Bear’s visit and our boy looked very happy. I appreciate Andrew’s quick and thoughtful responses to my text messages. We’d definitely use him again for watching Bear.

Kelsey did an amazing job taking care of our 4 month old kitten, and addressing her needs. Our kitten was able to socialize with other cats and even a dog! Kelsey updated us with photos and messages very frequently, which was very much appreciated! Kelsey has a significant amount of knowledge on cats, and gives them many opportunities to play and enrich their minds, socially and mentally. Thank you so much for looking after our little baby! I can not wait for the next time that she can come over to visit!

From the moment we met Tania, she was friendly and welcoming. She introduced Molly to her pets and the layout of her home and fenced-in yard. Molly had to learn to use the Dog Door and did so While away, Tania sent photos and videos of Molly enjoying herself. It is clear that Tania cares deeply for pets. Molly had a wonderful time, and we will look forward to using Tania again.

Candice took care of my 1 year old high energy dog for 7 days. Very good with messaging back and sending daily pictures and videos. Her and Clementine did very well with keeping Astrid entertained even when it was super cold outside. When my girl misbehaved, she made sure to ask questions on how best to find a solution. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby.

Megan is a lovely person who truly cares for animals. She did everything to make Molly's stay pleasant, relaxing and fun. Molly had a sleep issue initially as she adjusted, but Megan was able to calm her and resolve it for the rest of the week. We would definitely use Megan again and hihly recommend her!🐾❤️

Brittney always takes good care of our little old Pomeranian. She is communicative, attentive, and sends photos. We always appreciate when she is available to take good care of our fur baby. Upon pickup, my husband even noted one of her neighbors recognized our dog from recent walks Brittney took her on. She genuinely enjoys caring for our fur baby, and is great at doing it. We will always book Brittney when she is available!

He was amazing! Asked great questions when I was dropping off my dog, and was great to communicate with me throughout my dogs stay with him! He is very polite, professional, and personal! My dog is also very shy and anxious, and she gets really nervous, and she seemed to have had a great time staying with him! Highly recommend, and when I need a dog sitter, I'll definitely use him again!
