“Debbie watched our dog on two days while we enjoyed the park and Bar Harbor. She has a perfect setup at her new home for taking care of your dog. She sent pictures throughout the day and was very considerate of my dog’s needs and making sure she was comfortable. Definitely recommend to others!”


“My boy Peter had a great stay with Karen. She was kind enough to pick him up to save me time. I was sent a short update with a photo everyday. I don’t think he was excited to leave. I will book Peter a stay again in the future.”


“We have used Jaclyn’s services twice now and would not hesitate to again. We love getting photos of Dani’s visit, which we call her “field trip” or “sleep over”. Jaclyn is very responsive and quick to answer any questions. She was also very understanding and easy to work with when our travel plans had to be postponed for a short time.”


“Our 11 month old, rambunctious cavalier King Charles spaniel had a wonderful vacation with Emily and Leroy! She went to the beach, on wonderful walks, and had great lap naps. She will definitely be back to visit her new friends the next time we go out of town.”


“We used to leave Rigby with the same pet sitter for many years, upon their closing we had yet to find a reliable pet sitter other than family and friends. We saw Krista's reviews and decided to try it out for a weekend. I am so glad we did, Krista cared for Rigby in her home just how we were used to! I will definitely be using her services in the future!”



“Chris was amazing! We were passing through town with our dog and wanted to see the National Parks, and so we needed a place to drop him off for a few days. Chris met us at our hotel and sat with us to learn all about Hugsy’s routine, then took pictures throughout the stay so that we could see Hugsy firsthand. Thank you for taking such good care of our dog, Chris - you really put us at ease!”
