Baylea and her family watched my dog and I don't think he has ever been happier! They sent me photos everyday and he had all the space he needed to run and play. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Eric watched my dog Tom over Christmas and New Years and did a great job! He updated me and sent me pics during the entire stay. He is very reliable and trustworthy. His dog also gets along well with other dogs and was a perfect playmate for Tom. I recommend his services to everyone and will be using him again.

Angie was responsive and kind when I reached out needing sudden help watching our 3 month old puppy for several days. She was so sweet and understanding about her being so young and likely to have accidents. Angie plays with the dogs, lets them outside often, and goes above and beyond with updates and pictures. Our puppy came home clean and seeming like she was unphased being away from us because she got sooo much attention at Angie’s.

I could not have asked for a better sitter for Cooper! Rachel was very responsive and sent a couple pictures a day. She let me know right away that he had settled in so I didn't worry. Walks, exercise, games--she did all the things he loves! Worked with us schedule-wise for drop off/pick up. I hope she will be available next time he needs a place.

Brandi was amazing. She sent videos and pictures of our little Toby. She got him to actually walk up and downstairs which he wouldn’t do for us before. She had a cat kitten but Toby loved. She made Toby a part of her home and our hearts were so full. I would recommend Brandi to anyone. Thank you so much we love you.

We will definitely be using Tee-tee again anytime we need a sitter!! I was a little sad to leave Coco while I went on vacation, we were gone for about a week and I was worried that Coco would be uneasy being away from home so long but when we did the meet and greet I could tell that Coco felt super comfortable at Tee-tee’s place :) Tee-tee sent plenty of pictures/videos which eased my mind and took away any guilt I felt about leaving Coco as I knew she was in great hands and feeling happy and at home with Tee-tee!

Sydney had our puppy for 7 days and we have nothing but great things to say about our experience! Coco was a happy puppy and she was in great hands. Sydney really treated her like one of the family! We got updates through out the day so it made being away from Coco easier. We will definitely use her again!

Kasie is absolutely amazing with all of my pets! My dogs absolutely love him. He’s been caring for my 3 dogs while I’m away at work and takes them for walks or to the dog park. He’s highly dependable and pays close attention to my animals. I also have cats and he is able to feed them their special diets and alerts me if anything is off. I highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a loving person to exercise or check in on their pets!
