1. Nicole R.

“Nicole took amazing care of our sweet, Willow. We made some last-minute travel changes and Nicole was able to pick her up from our home after we left for our 5AM flight, which was very convenient and much appreciated. I got daily pics of our pup and updates. I had peace of mind while I was away and felt confident that our girl was getting the best care. I will happily leave Willow in the care of Nicole again and I highly recommend her. Thank you so much to Nicole and family for taking such great care of Willow!”


2. Julianne & Ragen W.

“Julianne and Ragen let Milo into the center of their lives for ten days while I traveled. He got lots of lap time, snuggles, treats, walks, and got to sleep on their bed, which made him comfortable when I couldn't be with him. They noticed a scabby wound and messaged, asking my permission to treat it; it healed well. Daily, I got a report on Milo; many days a pic, too. This was only the second time I was away from him this long. I was privileged to feel he was so safe and loved. It let me enjoy my trip without worry. Julianne and Ragen have had their own small dogs. They knew how to care for Milo and did it well!”


3. Jordan S.

“Jordan was awesome! He watched our pup, Hammer and sent pictures and videos every day! He fit right in with the pack from what it sounds/looks like. We will definitely use Jordan again!!”


4. Anika D.


“Our pup had a wonderful stay with Anika and her family. She was amazing with communication and patience with our dog when she had a tough time sleeping at night. We appreciate her so much! Would absolutely recommend.”


5. Jennifer P.

“Leaving my boy with Jennifer was like leaving him with family. He was loved and cared for. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her. Worth every penny.”


6. Travis P.
“Travis is great with my pup. He’s super patient and loving. He even helped my dog after double TPLO surgery giving her meds on schedule, ensuring she didn’t go up stairs or jump, and creating a loving environment. I’d leave my dog with Travis anytime.”


7. Silvia T.

“My pup, Red, had a great time with Silvia! He stayed with her for nearly a week. Silvia sent lots of pictures so I could follow his adventures. It was clear he was given lots of love and attention during his stay. I highly recommend Silvia. She will take care of your pup(s) like they are her own.”


8. Mary K.

“So, our two 8mth old black Labs loved Mary and John. Real down-to-earth people. Just a great place for our fur babies to hang out for the weekend! Ww would highly recommend Mary and thank you for taking such good car of our girls!”


9. Amy K.

“Amy was so kind and welcoming to our pups! We had car trouble on our way back home and she was super understanding and supportive- it was great during a stressful time to know we didn't need to worry about our fur babies. She texted us updates frequently- and asked questions about their diet/sleep situations. They came back home happy as clams! Thanks Amy”


10. Juli F.

“Juli was so great with Skeeter! She also has a very sweet little dog named Oliver. Skeeter came home happy and relaxed. She received fantastic care! Juli sent pictures and I could see that Skeeter was very content. I will definitely book with Juli again!”


11. Shelley N.

“Shelly was a life saver. She took both of our dogs who have never been left with anyone but family. She sent me videos and pictures to ease my mind. I will be using her again and I recommend you do as well!!”


12. Linda S.

“My dachshund Lucy spent 2 weeks with Linda while I was overseas, and though Lucy was ecstatic when I was returned, I also felt guilty tearing her away from such a lovely second home. Linda’s mini dog Daphne napped peacefully with Lucy, the house is spacious and uncluttered with lots of natural light, and there is a giant couch where Linda hangs out with the dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better situation for Lucy!”


13. Serena D.
“Serena is a fantastic pet sitter! She has taken care of both of our dogs and always takes great care of them. I really appreciate her attention to detail, photo updates, and the fact that she goes the extra mile to ensure our pups are happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Serena as a sitter or dog walker!”


14. Tonya U.

“Tonya was wonderful, and our dogs had a great time at her home! She provided pictures and updates, and it was obvious our boys enjoyed their stay! We've already booked another stay with her and will continue to leave our dogs in her care when we have to be away!”


15. Cyennah L.
“I had a great experience with my dog sitter! They were professional and genuinely caring. I even got photo updates on my dog and they seemed like they were having a great time. I would highly recommend this sitter to anyone in need while they are away from home!”


16. Garrett E.

“Garrett and Monica were AMAZING with our Koe! They were so interactive with us, keeping our minds at ease for our entire trip and their pup Zeus was such a great play date and we will be using them again!”


17. Daniel C.

“Daniel was wonderful with Matty, who is usually quite timid and distrustful of strangers. He communicated well and offered a meet and greet, which was very helpful. We will definitely have Matty stay with Daniel again!”


18. Alicia K.

“We booked Alicia to care for our our Golden Retriever for 14 days! That is quite the stretch! We received daily updates of his time with Alicia along with photos! In every photo, he looked happy and seemed as if he was enjoying his vacation the whole time. Alicia was a great communicator and I would recommend her services to anyone! Thanks for taking care of our furry family member Alicia. :D”




19. Angela P.

“Angela sent me pictures every day and told me how Belle was adjusting. By the time she left I wasn’t sure Belle would want to come home. Belle was happy and enjoyed her vacation as much as I did. Angela took good care of her and I will use her services again when needed.”


20. Nathan W.
“Nathan has always treated my animals as his own, and I would dare say my pets are considered valued members of his family. I don't hesitate to ask him to keep an eye on my 3 rowdy boys. His patience and love for my furry friends is heart warming, and reassures me they are in excellent hands.”
