“Abby really enjoyed her time with Susan and her family and I felt completely comfortable that she was well taken care of. From the pictures and the videos we received it was clear Abby was getting the love and exercise she needs. Susan’s girls were so friendly and showered Abby with love and attention from the initial meet and greet. I would definitely ask Susan to sit for Abby in the future.”

“Alison and Richard were great with our puppy and made us feel so much better about leaving him for the first time! They welcomed him into their family and made him feel at home. They have a beautiful home, nice fenced in yard, and 2 sweet dogs of their own that also welcomed our pup! We loved getting pictures to see how he was doing, and have already booked them for another weekend 2 months from now!”

“Had a wonderful experience with boarding. Oakley came home so exhausted. Will definately use again. They were very communicative through entire boarding with rapid responses and treated my baby as one of their own.”

“Our dog was treated like one of the family at Nancy’s home! There was great communication with updates and photos during our time away. I highly recommend Nancy and will definitely use her again!”

“She is wonderful! I got multiple pictures and videos a day. The babies had so much fun and I knew they were in good hands. I will be using Natalie again whenever we go out of town.”


“Leighanne was so great to take our 2 dogs last minute for a week. We are so thankful. I know they loved having other friends to play with. They moved our dogs like they were their own. Comforting our big baby when he was homesick. Great rovers!”

“Brad was an excellent dog sitter! Reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring, my dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Communication was great and I had complete peace of mind. Highly recommend Brad to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.”

“Ronald and his family are incredible. We left our dog Daisy for the very first time in his care this past week and she loved it there. My wife was very apprehensive, and that’s an understatement, about leaving Daisy with anyone. Ron sent us pictures and updates every day we were away and we could tell she was having a great time. His fenced in yard gave Daisy lots of room to run and play safely with the other dogs and is the perfect setup for dog sitting. Ronald loves dogs and knows how to care for them. We felt that he treated Daisy, not just as a dog to care for, but also as one of the family. You can tell dog sitting is a labor of love for Ronald and his family. After this trip we are booking Ronald to watch Daisy for 4 more trips we have planned this year. I totally recommend Ronald to anyone looking for a “home away from home” for your dog when you are traveling. Brian & Maggie”

“Jamie and her family watched our Golden for 4 days and it went beautifully! Great yard, great communication, her kids and dogs seemed to mesh well with Lemon. Highly recommend!”

“This is only the 2nd time we boarded our dog. This time she did not have any issues when we picked her up. I like the opportunity to be able to text and either respond to question from our boarder or us to ask questions. I really felt that Katie cared about our dog. I would definitely use Katie again. Very trustworthy!”

“Christina truly has a passion with caring for animals. She is beyond kind and my dog was beyond excited to spend the day with her. He came home in great spirits and I am sure he can’t wait to visit again. Thanks for all you do for our fur babies.”

“Sarah and Erik were wonderful! Our lab Smoky stayed with them for several days and no doubt had a great time. They have a very safe and welcoming space and a great yard for larger dogs who love to play, and their sweet pup Rosie is just the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend 😊”

“There is nobody I would trust more! Yelena is the best! She sends the cutest photos, always playing with my fur babies and I never have a worry when I am out of town!”

“Having a great pet sitter that gives regular updates while you’re away gives you such peace of mind. I was completely at ease when Frances was watching Marley. Thanks for taking great care of my baby”


“I was extremely happy with my dog’s caregiver. Home was very clean, she was extremely nice and professional and my dog and I just loved her dog! I will definitely schedule with her again!”

“Amanda was the absolute BEST care giver to my Beagle Beau. We had never left him before with anyone, and Amanda welcomed him in as her own. Her and her family were so welcoming, kind, attentive and they truly understood our need to feel confident and safe leaving Beau with her....she absolutely outdid all expectations. Will definitely be having Beau stay with Amanda again and again.”

“Had a great experience with Aquisha as my dog sitter! She was super communicative, sending plenty of pictures and videos to keep me updated. She made sure my dog stayed active and happy the whole time. Definitely planning to rebook with her in the future!”

“Lipika did a wonderful job watching Maple. Maple appeared comfortable at all times around her, and I would trust her anytime with my dogs! She sent frequent updates, accompanied by photos and videos, and she made sure to take note of her poops and behavior in case there were any potential health concerns. Maple also enjoyed playing with Lipika’s daughter, which I’m sure Maple loved. If you’re looking for a communicative and thoughtful sitter, Lipika should be your go-to!”

“Rachel did a great job loving on and taking care of our pup. You can tell she loves dogs. She was great about sending pics and letting us know how he was doing while we were away. We felt relieved he was in good hands while we were on vacation. We will definitely use her again on our next trip.”
