“Dakota and her family were amazing with my dog! They treated him like family, and he had a fantastic time. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a great place for their pets! Thank you!”
“This was the first time I left my 2 boys with Ashtin and I would come back to her for taking care of my puppies every time. My boys were so well taken care of. Ashtin is very responsive and accommodating. She sends tons of pictures and updates throughout the day. We came back to very happy and content puppies. They were loved throughout their stay at Ashtin’s house and I can tell that they found a second home there.”
“Charlene and Felix were wonderful with my extra scared puppy. They provided warm and loving care with lots of pictures and videos. I would definitely feel comfortable using them again.”
“Another great stay for our dog with Rachael and her husband! Received daily updates with pictures while we were away. Scotty helped us load and unload the car. Larry had a blast playing with the other pups. Thank you, guys, and we will be back again!”
“Sweet couple took care of Milo. It was really safe area and feels comfortable to leave him. He had a really good time. Highly recommended!!”
“Justina was great with my 100lb rottie. She can be moody at times but Justina paid very close attention to her mannerisms. She has a huge back yard for play and her dog is very friendly. She kept in constant communication, and sent lots of pics and videos. Will definitely use her again! I can tell Aska was well taken care of 💕”
“Cody is amazing! He and his precious fur-baby, Liberty, treated our Buster like family while we were gone and they had the best time together! He was so patient and loving to Buster, as he got familiar with his new surroundings, and he sent updates and pictures while we were gone, and they had a blast together! We are so thankful and grateful to Cody (and Liberty) and will use him every time we need a pet sitter for Buster! The peace of mind we had knowing Buster was in such great care, is priceless! I highly recommend Cody S. to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter!”
“Shannon took wonderful care of Pi during her stay. We really appreciated how she proactively sent us pictures and kept us updated on Pi without us having to ask, which made a huge difference compared to our previous Rover experiences. In the past, we had to reach out for updates, but Shannon's frequent updates reassured us that Pi was in great hands. Most importantly, she engaged with Pi, played with her, and even took her on a hike. Pi looked so happy in the pictures! We would definitely use Shannon again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Amber was very easy to work with. And she took great care of our dog, Alistair. She sent pictures throughout the weekend showing us how he was doing. We would definitely use her again.”
“Tonisha did a Wonderful job keeping my pups. I was nervous leaving them with a stranger because they are only 7.5 mos but they felt comfortable and loved. She took them for walks and to the park daily to socialize them with other dogs. She also gave them a bathe before they returned home. She sent me pics and videos daily. I highly recommend her services. I will Always request to book her when I need to go out of town!”
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“I can’t say enough GREAT things about Maci, she took such great care of our pup while we were on vacation .She was always available to talk, and even willing to accommodate our schedule when it changed. I will use her for all our boarding needs in the future!”
“Thomas took great care of my girl! We had a last minute trip and Thomas let us book that morning and drop off a few hours later! She was so happy when I picked her up I wasn’t sure she wanted to leave. Would def use again.”
“Tammy is amazing! She has such a calming and welcoming spirit. My dog has separation anxiety and to see my pup jump up to tell her goodbye was so sweet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Shannon is the best! Her and her family are so kind and sweet and will love of your animals like their own. I was looking for a sitter last minute and she was available to watch our dog Louie for us. I would highly recommend her and definitely will be using her again in the future.”
“Remy was very well taken care of at Emily’s house! We received picture and video updates and great communication! Thank you so much!”
“Rhindi was amazing! She was available during the holidays and offered a great price for boarding. She was very sweet and attenttive, and her dog Jack became great pals with my fur baby. Rhindi sent me lots of updates along with pictures so I always new that my dog was doing great and was in good hands. After lots of playing, lots of cuddling, and lots of treats, my dog had a hard time saying goodbye when it came time to go home. I highly recommend Rhindi!”
