“Amazing! Went home to visit family and it was super comforting to know my pup was in good hands. Michelle sent so many pictures it was great! She also took such great care of my pup! 10/10 recommend!”


“This was our first time with Lindsay, and we couldn't be happier! We'll definitely be repeat customers. She took great care of our boys, and we felt completely at ease leaving them in her hands. Our dogs absolutely loved the interactions with the other dogs and her children, and it was clear they felt right at home. Lindsay provided a safe, loving, and fun environment, and we’re so grateful for her care. Highly recommend!”


“My dog had some much fun with Ryan and Rachel. They were awesome and always keep me updated and sent pics. I will definitely be returning to have my dog watched by them. Thank you again.”


“What an amazing experience for my dogs! From the moment I first spoke to Theresa to the moment we picked our dogs up, I knew this was an exceptional experience. Theresa goes above and beyond to make your pet feel comfortable while they are away from home. She customized their feeding, treats, and even their lounge time. It’s so hard to know if someone will love your pet like you do, and no question Theresa does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter while they are away!”


“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Katelyn is very kind and helpful, in addition to being understanding of HoneyBee's blindness and separation Anxiety. I appreciate all the pictures and videos of my pup while I was away, and especially all the attention given to my pup as well as flexibility of scheduling. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.”


“Shuling did a great job with Penny! Excellent level of communication (not too much not too little) throughout the whole experience, lots of pictures, and Penny ate her food which shows an incredible amount of comfort and trust she has built with Shuling. Definitely recommend Shuling and I will be coming back to her again! “Shuling’s Rover experience was the best Rover experience we’ve ever had. She really did go above and beyond, fed her right before pickup and I was surprised Penny ate dinner! This goes to show her level of care for animals. 10/10”


“My family and I were in town for a couple of days and we needed a last minute dog sitter. Cait had some good reviews and so we decided to move forward and have her dog sit. She was awesome! Our dog had a great time and Cait said she enjoyed playing with her dogs. If we’re in town again, we would definitely reach out!!”


“Paris, is such a wonderful sitter. My pup, Jayce, really loves her and her fur babies. My mind is always at ease when I have to travel for work and Jayce is in her care. She's also very understanding. A family emergen”


“Elizabeth took excellent care of our labradoodles over a long weekend - one who is 9 years old, and one who is still a pup at 6 months old. We received a daily picture and text updating us on their stay. She was able to administer medication to our older dog when a thunderstorm rolled in to make her more comfortable. Both pups came home well taken care of and sleepy from so much play time with Chief and Todd. We would happily use Elizabeth's services again. Thank you again Elizabeth for taking such good care of our doggos!”

“Liz, Jeff, and their whole family take such amazing care of our two Bichons. The videos and pictures show them having so much fun with their family, their dogs, and other dogs in their care. Will keep booking with Liz and Jeff!”


“Candice was wonderful to work with! She was quick to respond to all of our questions and so personable. Our dogs have never spent the night away from home so this was a new experience for all of us.
