“This is my first time using Nicole and she was fantastic. Very communicative and put me at ease leaving Chloe with her. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout her stay there and it looked like she was well cared for and had a great time playing with the other dogs there. Would definitely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again.”

“Vadim & Anastasiia were awesome! It was my first time leaving my dog, Lola, with anyone in this area and I will definitely be using them again. Tons of updates each day, they were very communicative & flexible for pickup/drop off times. Lola got lots of walks & they were attentive to administering her medication each day. Already booked them for my next trip 😊”


7. Elizabeth D.


“Our rescues spent time away from our home for the first time with Elizabeth. Beforehand, we had a meet and greet with Elizabeth at her home. We were impressed with the space in her home along with her easily accessible yard for her furry clients. The wonderful bonus was her two young boys who clearly love dogs! Our Peaches and Coco settled in and we received both video and photos of their stay which was reassuring. We have already booked Elizabeth and her boys for our next travel later this month. Highly recommend!”


8. Jennie M.

“Jennie was absolutely amazing! She was extremely easy to communicate with and made us feel at ease. She took extra time to understand our dog Steve's routine and kept us updated throughout our weekend away. Steve had an incredible time. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

10. Camilla B.

“We were nervous to leave 2 of our dogs alone as we traveled because one is older and has difficulty walking, and the other is young and has a lot of energy and likes to chew everything. They were prepared to take care of both and even checked in with me sending cute pictures so that I knew they were okay. If l have to leave them again, I will be using their services again. Thank you!”

“Amazing Experience Again! This is the second time I’ve used Catherine’s dog boarding service, and once again, everything was perfect. Dexy felt comfortable and well-cared-for, just like the first time. Catherine is reliable, communicative, and goes the extra mile to make sure all my dog’s needs are met. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her and will definitely continue using her services in the future!”

“Such a great experience for both myself and doggie Cloe! Cloe felt like home and part of the pack, and I was in peace the whole time. Carmel was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which made it easy to coordinate. I also received pics of Cloe and the pack which made me feel so calm as I knew Cloe was in good hands. Carmel and Mark will be my first pick next time I have to travel without my baby Cloe.”

“I found the best sitter in Miami! Yolyann not only accepted my baby last minute but was super flexible with our schedule. I received pictures every day and had peace of mind that my dog was in good hands so I was able to enjoy my mini vacation and based on the pictures he had a good vacation too.”
