“Tawni took very good care of our Daisy and kept in touch throughout her stay. I felt comfortable and confident that our Daisy was in good hands and appreciative Tawni being available each time I reached out to her”


“Where can I even begin, this was our first time boarding our pup and we were beyond nervous to leave him. Aunt Dana QUICKLY put those worries aside with the care and attention she gave our puppy. Outside of the AMAZING care she constantly sent updates and photos so we never had to wonder what our pup was doing. If anyone is looking for a sitter who takes dog care to the next level Aunt Dana is definitely the person for you I honestly wish I could leave a 10-star review.”


“Alyssa and Her Husband were amazing sitters I would recommend them to anyone! I have a anxious dog who really came out of her shell at their house and played with her dogs and toys which she has never done before. It shows how comfortable and loving of an environment they curate. Couldn’t say enough good things!”


“Jayden and Austin were so great! They were able to watch my dog on short notice and were flexible with timing. If back in the Charlotte area, would definitely book again.”



“Another wonderful stay with Cheryl! Our flights were delayed and Cheryl was completely understanding and didn’t hesitate to keep our girl another night for us. She is so helpful and provides the best updates. Thank you again!”


“Jeanette was awesome. She made Rocky and I feel comfortable from the moment we pulled up to her house. She is definitely a well prepared and knowledgeable dog sitter. She also sends plenty of pictures. Rocky can’t wait to visit again.”


“Miles had a wonderful time at Deborah's. She sent lots of pictures and she can move walks everyday. She was very responsible and responded each day with an update. I will book again as a matter of fact I did already”


“Brett went above and beyond this weekend, providing exceptional care for our three dogs. His communication, reliability, and genuine love for dogs truly set him apart and made us feel comfortable leaving our boys for the weekend. I felt at ease knowing our furry family members were in such capable hands. I highly recommend his services and look forward to booking with him again in the future.”



“Alejandra took great care of my 90-lb German Shepherd. She sent me photos, videos, and message updates every day, and when I came to pick up the pup, he was well and happy. I wouldn't hesitate to leave him with Alejandra for my next trip out of town!”


“Monica was amazing!!!! Our dog Charlie was in the absolute best of hands, and we appreciated the sweet pictures and videos. Will absolutely rebook and highly recommend!!”


“Ravenna did an amazing job taking care of my sweet girl while I was out of town for several days and kept me updated regularly with photos and status reports. Would highly recommend her pet care services to anyone!”


“Kenara was absolutely amazing with Maxine! From the moment they met, Kenara was kind, friendly, and clearly had a natural connection with dogs. Maxine warmed up to her right away, and it was such a relief knowing she was in good hands. Kenara took great care of Maxine—she was attentive, responsible, and made sure Maxine was happy and comfortable the whole time. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend Kenara to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter. Maxine can’t wait to see her again!”



“The pups came home tired and content after their time at Judy's! They have a wonderful backyard with plenty of room to run and play. Our senior girl received the extra attention she needed with her health issues. I would definitely recommend Judy and her husband to care for your pets.”


“Torrey was a dream & I can’t recommended her enough! I was nervous leaving my dog for the first time with someone other than family and Torrey really helped me feel at ease. She took a bunch of pictures of him and made sure to communicate about how he was doing. She took him running and treated him like her own. I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future!”


“Tatiana is so wonderful and took such great care of my knucklehead! She and her daughter gave him so much love and he had a great time getting lots of attention. He’s been stressed coming home from other boarding places but not at Tatiana’s!”


“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“This was my second time using Gonzalo and this time I trusted him to watch my 2 babies while I was out of the country with limited access to my phone. My dogs were very well taken care of and I enjoyed receiving daily photo updates and pictures! Gonzalo and his family are soo nice! Will be booking with them again in the future!”


“It was clear the moment we saw our dog after his stay that Dominique and Peter are experts when it comes to dog care. Our dog is normally extremely shy around strangers, but after a week, he'd warmed up noticeably to them, and he was sad to see them go. If you're looking for a couple who matches adaptability with expertise, look no further - your dog is in wonderful hands with them.”


“Cassian felt right at home at Katherine‘s house… They were very accommodating. They have a nice big backyard and were very loving towards my pup. I highly recommend them. 🐶”


“Stephanie was awesome! Provided tons of updates and pictures, very friendly and great with your pets. Our dogs felt right at home and came home exhausted from playing with others. Will definitely re-book in the future.”

Erin was fantastic with my pug, Pickles! Communication was clear and consistent the entire time, and I always felt like my pup was in great hands. She sent regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. Pickles came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I’d absolutely recommend Erin to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter. Will definitely book again. Thanks, Erin!

I am glad I found Avalon. She took such a great care of my pups. My dogs sometimes get anxious in new space- she helped them adjust, took walks, send me lots of pics, made sure they are in good health in every way! Thank you very much. Grateful for your care.

Duke and I love Alyssa and Spencer. They are so kind and attentive and Duke enjoys his visits at their home.

Juliana was super helpful with our last minute request to watch our 2 dogs, both of which can be a bit of a handful at times. She was very attentive and noticed one of the dogs wasn’t feeling well, and went out of her way to make sure our Stella was comfortable. I highly recommend Juliana for all your sitting needs!

Kelly and her husband took great care of our golden girl, sent a lot of pictures and she looked happy as can be. We’re so thankful we found them! Highly recommend.

Bozena take amazing care of Watson. We love getting all of the photos and updates. She is the best!!

Ariana is AMAZING we had our dog stay with her for 17 days and my dog was in a good place !!!! She was so happy with Ariana Ariana is so nice and sweet!!! Thank you for being amazing ❤️❤️🐶🐶

Kristen & Jeremy did an excellent job boarding Snickers for 11 days while we were out of the country. Their communication was great. They are responsible dog-sitters, we trusted our Senior dog that we would highly recommend.

Cheryl was great taking care of Lucas, always keeping me updated. Lucas had a great time spending the weekend at Cheryl's. Highly recommended and will use in the future.

Brittany was wonderful with my lab Lenny! She was super prompt with communication and took great care of him while we were out of town! Would recommend her care for anyone looking for a great sitter!

Heidi was such a pleasure! She sent daily updates with pictures and my dogs definitely enjoyed their stay with her. Would book with her again and highly recommend!

Highly recommended! Gabriela was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, and she’s a very sweet person. My dog was very well taken care of. Thank you so much!

Elizabeth was great! She sent me multiple updates a day, and I could see that my dog Tally was having a blast & well taken care of! 😊

My sweet girl enjoyed her stay with Tawni as always! We received daily photos, and she definitely had a fun time while we were out of town ❤️
I had Ana watch my two frenchies Hugo and Zoey. Hugo is paralyzed in his back legs and needs his diaper changed throughout the day. Ana and her family were accomodating to Hugo and gave great updates and communication. We plan to use them again next time we have to board our pups!

Judd was awesome! Our 12 year old German Shepherd was in the best hands and I know this because Judd communicated with me daily on how Ava was feeling and the adventures she got to go on. He even helped to keep her calm during the fireworks on the 4th. I definitely recommend Judd, he really cares for your pet like his own.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! Jason was amazing—he made sure my pup got daily walks, gave him his medication every morning without a hitch, and kept me updated throughout. It was clear my dog was in great hands the entire time. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
